Hi Bill and Lisa 🙋♀️
Just a tip. Find a place to sit and eat food from places like the taiyaki stand. Standing on the sidewalk and eating or worse, walking and eating is considered a faux pas in Japan, though they tend to overlook it if you're obviously a tourist. The exception to this are places like street food markets and festivals.
Lisa, we miss seeing you at Trader Sam's. But, it has been so much fun to watch your world travels. Happy Holidays to you both.
Sorry you missed seeing her, normal says off are Tues and Wed unless we're traveling for longer period. Happy Holidays!
Thanks Bill and Lisa for taking us along your Toyko foodie tour. Everything looks delish!! Ohayogozaimasu!! Enjoy life guys!!
Thank you, Debbie!
Having a hard time hearing Lisa on this video but It was still entertaining!
We had some mic issues, receiver wasn't plugged in all the way. Sorry about that.
Japan, foodies’ heaven! I love picachu and hello kitty!
Thank you for sharing with us. Lisa you look so pretty with your hair down. Love ❤ you guys. So cute together
Lisa has the cutest smile. You guys do a great job. Keep it coming!
Thank you! Will do!
Wish I lived in Japan. Thank you for sharing your visit!!!
So glad you are back again in Japan finally ❤ Good food choices! I haven’t commented for a while but I enjoy every video you posted. Never missed.
Thank you 😋!! Please feel free commenting more!
My dream vacation 🍜😋🍛🤤🍣🥰!
NUM NUM NUM!! And that's great that you won in claw machine!! I have NEVER won on those things. LOLLL Thank you for another GREAT video!!!
YELP reviews can be tricky to navigate, so my experience going there so often has taught me.
Some people really like stuff. Others really do not. Some people are in good moods when they review stuff. Others seem not to be. 😂
Oh well, huh?
So true. Typically will find less than 50 Yelp reviews on any given restaurant in Japan compared to hundreds in the US.
Another great video. Thanks Bill and Lisa.
I am Japanese living in southern California and I have not been back to Japan almost 10 years! I really need to go back there and eat some of the food that you had.
Delicious finds in Shinjuku. Can't wait for you to return and find more treasures.
Thanks Carol! Looking forward to our return too!
❤❤❤So awesome you guys made a video of Tokyo ‼️‼️ My Girlfriend and I plan on going next year 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks for the tips 😊
Our pleasure!
Wow what delicious foods in Tokyo! You guys are the most fun!!! 😊
Thank you 😋
Aloha Bill and Lisa: Nice to see you both lead us on a yummy, and delightful, vlog of your short journey to Japan. The curry establishment looked like a great place to dine and it must have been delicious for you both! Thank you for taking us along, via your vlog. Looking forward to your next adventure. Best wishes and Mery Christmas! Much 🧧 and 🤙! Mahalo!😅
Aloha Bill! Wish Go! Go! Curry! had a SoCal location, we'd be there all the time. lol. Merry Christmas!
Those Ramon noodles looked delicious.
Thank you for sharing.
Amazing video. Loved the scenery and especially the food. Thanx so much for sharing. Travel safe.
Our pleasure! Thanks for watching guys!
Thanks for sharing. I doubt I'll ever make it to Tokyo so I'll experience it through your videos.
Hi Bill and Lisa, I don't know what looks more amazing, the sushi, the ramen or the curry 😍the quality of the food is just fantastic, I love Japan for that reason
Hi Angie! Agreed, loved all the food!
THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING THIS EXCITING TO WATCH VIDEO. KEEP UP THE MAGNIFICENT WORK. 👍🏼😁
Thank you, Tracey! Will do!
Great food tour. My sister's family going to Japan in April. Will have them watch your UA-cam vlog. Lisa has the claw machine touch. What a haul at the Sanrio store. I'm sure you guys packed an extra bag or two 😉.
Happy holidays and can't make to see your next adventure. Safe travels home.
Thank you! Our bags were so full, no room for a keychain if we wanted. lol
500 yen is a great price for that fish soup. Did Bill dip his chopsticks in water before 3:38? The fish shaped desert with red bean (ice cream version) is my all-time favorite. l like how Lisa enjoys all the San Rio stuff. I'm the same way...I remember when they used to have the punch loyalty card in the mid 90s. Those are outstanding Ramen prices, better than here in the states!l
I dipped them in the miso soup. lol
Merry Christmas !! Glad to see you both enjoying the trip to Tokyo. love all the food choices you presented !! 👍👍❤❤🥰🥰🤗🤗
Merry Christmas!
👍What a fun foodie day! Too bad it was a short weekend trip. Y'all need to stay longer and do a longer foodie tour.
Thank you for taking us along.
You're very welcome, Yvonne! Yes, for sure could've used another couple of days there. But, short trips are what we can do throughout the year because we only have so many vacations days, until we can retire. lol
Just started watching last week, love you guys!!!!❤💜😘
Welcome to our channel!
Loved this video! And I love all things Japan!
Your adventures make me want to go to Japan even more! It all looked so delicious! The Disney products were so cute!
Sushi, tempura ,curry, takoyaki and ramen.... 😋. That covers the basics in one nite. Merry Christmas and Happy New years guys!!
Yes!! Merry Christmas!!
Takoyaki is actually a fried batter....kind of like a very thick sauce. It will always be soft inside.
Tyvm and yqw ...love you guys 😘🤗❤❤❤
Another great video. Thx.
Happy Holidays Lisa, Bill, family and to all your viewers...made me hungry for some sushi now 🙊...all the food choices are always a hit 👍...safe travels and God Bless....wishing you a prosperous 2024 and more fabulous adventures to come 🎉🎉🎉😘🤗❤
Thank you so much, Jade! Happy Holidays!!
Nice tour of Tokyo. Yummy food, I want to try it all. Travel safe. Happy Holidays.🌲🎁
Happy holidays!
Tokyo Japan weekend. I get so jealous. So much amazing food to choose from I bet. When I go up stairs now , I get so winded. My knees hurt too lol. Take care...
Lots of these types of places are stairs only from what we've seen, not too many lifts/elevators especially in older buildings. Fortunately, there are plenty of eating places at sidewalk level.
Aloha! Looks Like a fun day. I love those claw machines. Nice win Lisa, I never win anything on the first try. I tried that Pikachu donut too, so cute! We have Kamakura ramen here in Hawaii but its way more expensive. Thanks for taking us along, I want to spend more time in Shinjuku next time.
Definitely good prices on ramen there. Now I want a bowl! lol
Ahh, Japan, don't forget to eat natto with your rice. I admire your ability to travel and make your way on your own.
i can’t go to tokyo with my wife or daughters i’ll leave broke with all those stores & games great food 👍
LOL!!
Tempura looks ono !
Happy Holidays,the soup looks so yummy.made me hungry 🙏🏽🎄👼🏾👼🏾🎄🥰🥰
Happy holidays!
🎌 14:05 and more:!
So cute that, as Lisa was digging into her sausages, I kept hearing text pings going off. 😊 Hard to know who they applied to. But, the musical accompaniment was fun to listen to. 🎶 🎼 🎵
Kampai!
Pings/sounds were coming from that little kitchen area, maybe next rice pot was ready? lol.
@@billandlisa Ahhh, great call, Bill! And I know what you were referring to now that I stop to think about it.
I enjoyed the video, also happy holidays.
Happy holidays!
Great job as always, Bill and Lisa, so many awesome eats there. Tokyo seems like a safe place to walk around among lots of people, even at night, a luxury you can't really enjoy here in Southern California. Do you feel the same way?
Yes, we felt safe walking everywhere we went. Thank you!
We loved Tokyo! Have you been to Shin-Yokohama Ramen Museum….it was very interesting and great Ramen! Merry Christmas to you & your family! 😀🎄
Yes, we went to that ramen museum years ago. Back then, no sharing ramen bowls, but they did offer 1/2 servings. Merry Christmas!
I would need years to eat all the yummy food! At least i can see it and almost taste it!!
It's so good! We’re missing it now. lol
Merry Christmas too you both, and all of your Family..♥️🎄🎄♥️
Merry Christmas!
Thanks for another great video, you guys are my favourite channel! I really appreciate when you explain the prices or show the menu so we can understand it in our local currency.
Sending love from Ireland 🍀💚
Thanks so much! We try and show things we wish others would show in their videos.
Love video keep making more. Merry Christmas to family
Merry Christmas!
Fun good stuff thank you for your video
Our pleasure!
Beer and Miso....never had that combo
Ramen look amazing! Price is good. I've paid $16 for Ramen here in San Diego
why does food look so much better in japan. they even seem to elevate the simple stuff. cheap too!
Good deals on eats for sure!
I also love Sanrio things
Another great video!! The tempura looks really good!! Anything deep fried tastes good😅😂😂😂 there are a lot of cute shops and eateries 😊😊😊 the ramen looked really good. I wonder if Japan ramen taste better than American ramen? Can't wait to see your next adventure❤❤❤
Thanks Beverly! Japanese ramen shops here (in the US) tastes pretty similar to the ones in Japan, only difference is the price. lol
I could never win anything with those claw games (UFO Catcher)👍. Never. 😰 I could only play the golf games and airplane flying games. 👍
The prior complex, to where your hotel is located, included a multiplex movie theater, shops and a live theater called Kabuki-za. One night I was drinking and singing at my favorite bar in Golden-Gai and the cast from the musical Grease came in (they were from Australia and performing at Kabuki-za). Top level singers in a dinky bar where all the drinks were ¥500. It was a great night as I got to hear some professional singers for zero fee. haha!
Next time you are in Tokyo, try the tempura chain, "Tendon Tenya." It's great!
Same here, no luck with the UFO catcher. lol. Very cool seeing the Grease cast! Thanks for the rec, will have to look for it.
Hello Bill and Lisa! Just got back from our Tokyo trip and we ate at that same sushi place you guys ate! Also stayed at Hotel Gracery!🤣 our Tsukuji trip is good too.
Nice! Hope you guys had a fun trip!
Lisa, if you wanna try another Ku, try Meguro/ Shinagawa… the BEST tonkatsu in all Tokyo is at TONKI… like a 7 min walk from Meguro station
Thanks for the rec!
Oh geesh. TY 😀
No problem 😊
👍🙂👍🇯🇵
You guys should come Vancouver BC I’ll take you around great food joints and Tim lee
I’d rather pay 20 then play those claw games . The curry, ramen looks good. Curry with sausage .
Takoyaki is meant to be soft in the middle & it’s not considered uncooked.
Hey Bill and Lisa. Safe travels! Happy holidays! Can you wish my Husband, Max, a Happy Birthday please!
For sure! Look for it in a couple weeks. Happy holidays!
The curry looked delicious. We need better curry restaurants in L.A. There's been a void since Curry House shut down.
Love mister donut
I’m late hello 👋🏽 bill & lisa😊
Hi Christine!
What you guys really need to do, if you haven't already, is go to Korea. Talk about a foodie heaven!
On our list for sure. =)
Thanks for this vlog. Travel safe. Seasons’ Greetings. Domo arigatoo.
Happy Holidays!
Hey guys. Nice to see you traveling to this area. 😊 🙏 Is it safe to travel. I would love to go to Japan. That vegetable and shrimp 🍤 look to good
From our experience, yes it is.
Tabelog is the app for restaurant reviews in Japan. You ate maguro, chu toro and otoro. Tuna, med fatty tuna and fatty tuna. Even sushi at the grocery stores in Japan is better than what we get in the US. We are lucky in Austin we have Tsuke Edomae. They import everything daily in from Tokyo fish market.
Good to know, thanks!
Oh my Buddah! just can't keep up.
Me doesn’t have that much to say but just keep up The Great Works lovebirds… 🕊🕊
Much appreciated
Seems like y’all 2 both, always haves a great time when exploring @@billandlisa
I know its embarrassing but ive never tried miso soup, i can't usually afford to eat out. Can anyone describe what it tastes like? How its made etc? It always looks so good 😍 X
If you can't afford to eat out, they sell instant miso soup at most stores in the Asian section. Just pour hot water in. Remember, it's instant but you can get an idea what it tastes like. Multiply by 10 and the real thing is best.. .
@@user-up9ir3zz1y how lovely of you to reply! 😊 thank you so much, really good idea. I'm in the UK 🇬🇧 but there's a really good Asian supermarket near me and I feel silly for not thinking of that! Have a lovely day x
I checked and Walmart has it for $2.72. Vons, Albertsons and Ralph's carries it too....
@@ladyT_VR46 Oh my! The UK!!
I live in California in the USA.
Good luck hunting. I love it and make it often. It's very earthy for a lack of better words. I'm Japanese, born there but live here now. It's kind of like the Japanese version of chicken soup for the soul....
@@user-up9ir3zz1y thanks lovely. At least I kinda know what it tastes like now. All these years I've been wondering and I just get it described as " very umami in taste" 😂 so I take it its very rich and brothy? Different wherever you go? The nearest Asian store to me is in Manchester which is around 12 miles away (an hour on the bus!) But I'm definitely going to go and try and get there. Not necessarily Japanese but I want to try Kim too and Ssamjang. I have a lot to learn. Thanks so much for reaching out xx

Bill is unrivaled in his ability to eat ramen noodles. His technique should be studied by all up and coming noodle aficionados. 🙂
LOL!! You should see the looks I get at Italian restaurants.
@@billandlisa Looks of envy no doubt. Pay no attention to the wanna bees! 🙂
I like the way you both eat not taking huge mouthfulls of food like Mark Weins ,he stuffs his mouth so indecently.....He makes me feel sick the way he eats...
Glad to hear I’m not the only one who finds it gross. lol
I happen to enjoy Mark very much , maybe not so much the way he eats but what and where he eats! I also enjoy Bill and Lisa but they wouldn't want to eat at some of the places that Mr. Weins eats at.
When I looked in the mirror, I was surprised how I dig in myself tbh 😂😂😅😅
In some cultures it’s considered a compliment if you eat voraciously. Slurping ramen or stuffing your face means you’re really enjoying the food.
@@hrock8081 You are so right!!
I hate chewy donuts. I want to eat my donuts not chew on it like gum. Krispy kreme ftw
Takoyaki is the worst Japanese food I have ever tasted. Yuck. I bought it at Tokyo Central Takoyaki stand fresh and it was uncooked inside with a really tiny piece of octopus. I tossed it. 🤮
Eek! Too bad they don't sell them by the piece so anyone can try it out.
Tokyo sweet, sales person wore gloves, I thought he wore it for sanitization but then he took the money with gloves on and gave change with it on. Disappointed!
