That Pokémon comment triggered an old trauma. I had 3 original hologram Pokémon cards when they first came out. Someone stole them out of my binder on the school bus. Back then those cards were $20 a pop. No telling how much they're worth now. Yea I never got over that. At 35 it's one of the few regrets I have not speaking up. I'm sure we could have watched the surveillance from the bus and figured out who stole it. OK that was my rant. Thanks for reading.
Omg i got 3 pokemon cards taken too but right before my eyes back in kindergarten, a kid in the class "borrowed" it and refused to return, then proceed to tell the teacher that i was trying to take his cards.
Most of this comment reads like these shorts. But that was an understatement, maybe I just read the last bit as the Japan food guy and thought to myself "I should read the rest of this comment that way."
omg. you've been that area! its my childhood neighborhood. please try "とん太" 5min from takadanobaba station by walk next time. its the best tonkatsu place in my life and ive been there over 20 years.
So you mean Tonkatsu tonta? I Tried to find it as I will be visiting Japan at the end of the Month, but it is marked as possibly closed. Would appreciate if you could Tell me if it’s the Right Place

This is the place where I used to go when I was a college student. A single 500 yen coin was more than enough to fill my empty stomach and the taste was quite decent too. I hope to see more food from Takadanobaba!
Thomas deserves what's coming to him! xD Who would have thought Japaneat is an ex-pro boxer! So versatile, next you're gonna say you're like 100 years old _im-pasta_ Italian chef 🤣
If anything, it just feel similar to adding a dash of black pepper, but more fresher. Basically a light fresh spice that wouldn't distract or change the original flavor (assuming you don’t put too much).
people in Japan actually LIKE their job and take PRIDE in their work, that is why you get quality food for affordable prices at every mom n pop stores.
Might be the only restaurant my mother would willingly buy pasta at. She scoffs at the ridiculous prices most Italian restaurants charge for pasta, when she could create the same dish for a fraction of the price at home. She finds it insulting. 😅
Your mom and I share the same philosophy- if I’m going out it better be something that I don’t normally make at home- for instance it’s a pain in the butt to fry fish and then clean that mess up when it’s done. So I usually order fish n chips. But pasta is cheap and angel hair pasta with meatballs is one of my family’s favorite meals so I cook that fairly often.
Japan's way of dealing with inflation is beautiful. They do not want to increase prices to lose customers, no matter what. Here in Finland it's the opposite of that; businesses have raked in record amounts of consumer cash, but the prices just keep going up.
been following you for months now, and this is the first time i've caught a release within a half hour. love your shit bro. wanna come to japan and try the food when i can afford it because of you
My earliest video game memories were playing Mike Tyson's punch out with my dad. He'd throw the controller to me and run out of the room and I would think I am literally going to die in real life. Good times.
Hey JapanEats, if you can find it, you should try Tapatio ramen and try it on the channel. It's popular in the US and uses a lot of spices you would associate more with Mexico than Japan. Could be interesting to try
You can barely cook that at home for $2.64 in America. I dont know of a restaurant in my area that has spaghetti with meat sauce for under $10. For $7.79, you can get a small spaghetti at Sbarro's with marinara and a meatball that you can cut up to make a sort-of meat sauce, but that looks bigger than a small to me. That looks like almost a full size order which would cost you $12.
I always feel weird about eating pasta at restaurants, because I feel like it's never even close to a good homemade pasta dish. Except for when I've been to italy, but I don't live there. Pizza is like the opposite, it's insanely hard to make it good at home and there's a billion restaurants that make it great
Back in the very early days of January 2020 when I was in Japan on a trip by myself, I had a very delicious spaghetti bolognaise meal set that came with a drink and small side salad for only ¥800 in Nagano.
There's an outdoor udon stand outside of the west exit at yokohama station that sells bowls for 200¥, tons of working class standing around enjoying a warm simple bowl.
Omg the fact that there can be pasta for $3 in Japan 🥺 Even cheap resturant pasta in Canada is $10-$15 😩 Sometimes it doesn't have to be the best, it just has to be inexpensive 👍
I think in America, at home, cheapest you can make something like that would be around $1, for that quantity of food, with those ingredients. In a restaurant, good luck getting that for under 10 bucks. You might find one or two restaurants that'll have it for seven or eight bucks or maybe a smaller side spaghetti for like 5 bucks, but they'll probably be marinara, not meat sauce, and no freshly cooked veggies, just a very basic marinara and spaghetti.
@@llm-reacts A package is like a pot full though, keep that in mind. That's probably at least 4 to 6 of what he was served. It's definitely cheaper to make it at home, but I'm sure in any restaurant in the western world it's way more expensive.
@@kritsadventures Yeah, definitely. Especially if it's a la carte, made to order. The only way to make spaghetti cheaply is make a really big pot of it and have everyone eat more or less the same dish
Have you seen Naoya Inoue fight? he comes to america next year apparently to do some fights. He is simply an amazing boxer. Maybe the best anyone has ever seen - pound for pound that is. He's not a heavy weight boxer, but he fights like one.

He only had himself to blame.

As in Thomas the tank engine!?
Thomas is a super heavy weight boxer, though. So I'll need the community's strength to finish this battle.

...wait a minute... I actually did punch my neighbor as a child. He stole my sandshrew.
Deserved it.
Reasonable.
Not Sandshrew 😢
not very sandshrewd of them.
Sandshrew??? Deserved then.
For 2 dollar pasta I expect eating out of a trashcan, able to vibe with such a nice restaurant alone, to some people that worth 2 dollar already.
Lady and the tramping it
I would genuinely feel guilty for spending only ~2 dollars for that pasta, and I also know that they don’t accept tips.

"Douzo, poopy pasta" is going to be my go to phrase for serving any noodle dish from now on 💩🍝
I said the exact same thing after watching this haha
💀 REAL
Olive Garden would charge you $17
No kidding
The price of breadsticks and soup/salad
Hey! That isn't a fair comparison. Olive Garden would use at least enough meat you'd expect it to be $3 meat sauce.
@@Chris_Sizemore Maybe $3.25
But they also offer unlimited soup and their quality is great
My sister and her boyfriend are in Japan travelling right now. I made sure to show her this channel!

That looked really good. I rarely see onions on spaghetti, and never green onions. I will try that.
thats just for show. you already have onion in the sauce.

You know they keep that on the menu for the young kids, or adults on a budget. Love too see it.
I bet it's 10 times better than Olive Garden's mushy flavorless pasta.
Right?
Or Applebee's.
People love to trash on olive garden but idk. In my experience it's actually pretty good, especially for a chain...
Hahaha.... Why do you Americans dislike olive garden???
It baffles me how people always judge entire food chains over a singular location

Megaman Legends music bringing me back
Liked mainly for the Mega Man Legends music.
Honestly looks pretty good
That Pokémon binder had me 😂😂😂
Megaman legends uptown soundtrack on the background was a great touch
The place's name is in japanese on google maps, so finding it is a tad difficult. Its nearby Shinjuku Station 😊 and the name is 立ちスパ アッパーカット.
this market theme from megaman legends is the epitome of "im in a nice little shop area" sounding music. it just makes me want to buy things
Apple Market for the background song music really hit me in the nostalgia. Fits the vibe of the vid well too.
$2 only ! I want this! 😭
Same😭
That MegaMan music takes me back
Please use "Love Mugen" as background music in your next short. It's a moving song and binging your shorts I know you'll love listening to it
I love pasta. This pleases me
Those weird old jdm proprietary buttons are the coolest thing in this planet. Japan is straight out of guardians of the galaxy
Honestly, looks awesome to me. I love a pasta that's light on meat but still got *sumthin.*
Reminds me of Bolognese pasta used to served in Shinkansen Bullet Train or top floor of department store restaurant ... nostalgia
“Mac Little”😂
Thanks for supporting the classic megaman legends music.
YOU’RE A FEATHERWEIGHT BOXER TOO!?
Hes lived over 100 years sinhes dine a lot of things
I think even super heavy🙄
That was probably a reference to the game _Punch-Out!!_
"Mac Little" I almost missed it. Lol!
Ok the Pokemon Binder comment felt reeeeeal personal
Only in Asia that we put scallions on top of pasta for plating, somehow it's weird and endearing at the same time
Looks delicious
For those who don’t know japanese, he said “どうぞ、 プッピパスタ。”

That would easily cost 10.99 at Fazoli's.
Very fun description
That portion is pretty good for the price
I think cooking my own pasta would be even more expensive. Wtf
Looked delicious
“Super feather weight” 😂
Considering how long Hajime no Ippo has been going. I can only imagine the boxing scene in Japan. That is probably the most casual wall of giants.
No mention of Sagat?
TIGER UPPERCUT!!
Is that Mega Man Legends music?
Looks like pasta that costs 20 bucks in the US.
Nope. $20 pasta in US has the overcooked noodles the size of a pencil. So no, it doesn't look like $20 pasta from US.
