my grandkid says I watch them all day every day, but there is nothing on tv, and I love seeing the variety of food that is so different, along with the happy people and laughter
A bit late but just read your whole blogpost. Gotta say, the information and photography was phenomenal! Commented and am staying tuned for further posts!
Mark, Thanks for being so respectful and appreciative in ALL your videos. You never try to be a 'star' and you are always informative. You have absolutely no phony qualities in you whatsoever. The food you try is unreal and you have the best travel show I've ever seen. Big thank you Mark & your Wife. Great stuff!!
He seems so sincerely happy about his food in all his videos, that I think it'll be a really strange experience being his friend watching him eat when we hang out
i dont know how to say this but, every time i eat a bowl of Maruchan Ramen noodles, i enjoy it more by watching mark eat, is anyone else experiencing that 😂
We went to that tiny okonomiyaki restaurant 7 years ago - the food was tasty and the staff made us feel so welcome. They even gave us an okonomiyaki spatula to take back home to London - still use it for cooking today!
Mark, you are an inspiration ! Everytime I watch your vlog I start craving whatever it is you are enjoying. Your descriptions are as delightful as your expressions when you eat. Wonderful work !
I love watching you eat, it makes the food 10X more delicious. My brother go to Japan every other years. And he's always talking about eating ramen, he stated he could eat ramen everyday. Thanks again for a great ramen video.
They look so delicious!Correct me if I am wrong but, I noticed that Mark Wiens DID NOT BLINK in the entire video(except when he tasted the ramen), because he was very delighted. Good times. Brings back memories.....
My wife and i are on a 3 week Japan Trip and we are now in Osaka. Wehn i saw this vid i know we have go there to eat, and it was so gooooood. Really a amazing Restaurant. Thanks Mark for your Osaka food Tour. Love it
I have been to this restaurant when I visited Japan, and discovered it just by walking by on the way to town. When I came back 15 min before opening time I saw a huge queue so straight away I knew it must be good. I got thrown off by the vendor machine, but fortunately I was with some friends who showed me the system. I have been to Japanese restaurants in other countries outside Japan but nothing ever tastes as amazing as this. The care and way the create this food is amazing. It is truly an artform.
Ramen is amazing and all I've ever had is instant Ramen, really like it. I can only guess how real Ramen must taste. Your Osaka Food Guide is great. You cover so many foods and restaurants. Thanks

Hello, I'm a residence of Osaka city. I'm enjoying your posts these days. Thank you very much for your yummy-posts about Osaka and Kobe. My favorite Osaka's dishes are "Kaiseki" at most expensive traditional restaurants, say Kicchou, Uoman etc. Traditional Japense dishes became "perfect" in Osaka. It will cost you tens thousand yen though, please try them if you are interested in them, because it is the authentic Osaka's dishes. My favorite Okinomiyaki restaurant is Turuya near Tenma Sutation. I love their Mix-Modern-Yaki. Also, please try it if you want. I hope your trip in Osaka becomes the best trip ever for you.
Hi Mark, not sure if you will see or read this comment but after hearing you say Okonomiyaki is not one of your favourite foods, and after seeing the Osaka style you ate where the batter and cabbage is all mixed up together into one big pancake, I totally would agree with you, However, you need to try the Hiroshima style Okonomiyaki which is a whole different experience that would uses a thin crepe style pancake on the bottom with lots of cabbage on top. It is out of this world. If you ever make it to Tokyo I would be more than happy to take you to the best Okonomiyaki restaurant in Japan...bar none. Love your videos and have watched you for a couple of years now. Brent (an American born and raised in Japan)
This kind of high quality content make me believe that the future o television is right here on UA-cam. Congrats for the Giant food Blog publish about Osaka food, it is beautifully done.
He tilts his head when he likes the food. The more he tilts, the more he likes. If he ever falls off the chair, means it's the best thing he's ever had :)
Loved the ramen that they served in Japan. The egg, the broth etc was out of this world. We ate it every day when we were vacating in Fukuoka. I personally cannot get enough of it. Every ramen restaurant have their own distinct flavours.. mmm . Just thinking about it makes me hungry and I'm back in the UK now.
i just want to say, prawns from thailand, roasted pig from the philippines, beef from kobe an the tuna from osaka.... you hit the holy trinity of food and more.
These videos always give me mixed feelings. I love the content, and Mark is a great guide when he doesn't have food in his mouth, but at the same time it's really hard for me to sit through the same dead-eyed, wide-eyed stare into the camera for every bit of food that's eaten.
Hey Mark, your videos are awesome as always! ive been watching your videos for a few years now and your video about starting your own blog has really inspired me to do so! your resource on your website is so beneficial. Hope it wont be too long before you come to London again so we can munch together. Keep it up mate!
okonomiyaki looks delicious. I will definitely visit there next time. Osaka is known for delicious comfort foods and friendly people. You absolutely nailed it.
Hi Mark, great videos. I have a question though. The last time I went abroad and tried to film my experience I was threatened by locals trying to take and break my camera equipment. I wasn't filming people, just the scenery and the places around me. This experience really put me off from filming my experiences abroad and when I do I am not able to capture as much footage as I want, fearing for my own safety. Have you ever experienced this before? Do you usually ask for permission before filming? Thanks again for these great videos, keep up the great work.
+bioroid09 Thank you very much and for sharing your experience. I have never experienced something so severe like that, but I have been told to turn off the camera numerous times. I think it could really depend on the country / culture you're in. I'd really encourage you to go for it again. I think times are changing and cameras and phones are so common that less and less people care. Thank you for your support.
i am in Japan at the moment and they dont mind me filming but i feel that the japanese, they dont want to be in the film, maybe shyness. On the other hand, in australia they are quite strict with filming in restaurant
Thanks for all of your posts. I stumbled across your channel by accident and look forward to your latest vlogs. I hope to visit Osaka in the near future and will keep in mind the places you have shown us. Have a blessed trip.
I just wanted to thank you Mark! Watching your genuine, ecstatic reaction to all the food inspired me to take my first trip outside my country to Japan and eat at all the places you recommended... It makes me so happy to watch you be excited about good food. Please keep it up! :)
I went to Japan a few months ago! I wish I would've seen this video before then haha that okonomiyaki restaurant looks really good. I'll make a note for next time I go
Visited that humble ramen shop last December. Magnificent. Glad I slurped every last drop because I knew I won't be having such a fantastic bowl in a long while.
+Bangkok Fatty I've noticed that with many eateries in Japan because of the small sizes and demand, you don't have time to sit there enjoy meal and chat.
Great video as usual Mark, love the look of that okonomiyaki restaurant, love how the walls are scattered in messages from people around the world :D. Thanks for the video looking forward to the next.
+Sol Fayerman-Hansen His other okonomiyaki video was one. He makes it clear that it's not his favorite food. There's also a video where he ate really bad food in Koh Samui.
i dont know how many hours ive spent watching this guy eat but these videos are addictive.
torinakins so true
Agree, 😁😁
I never get. Tired of watching him eat rather can't wait for new video
my grandkid says I watch them all day every day, but there is nothing on tv, and I love seeing the variety of food that is so different, along with the happy people and laughter
Tru dat!!!
また日本に来てね！いつも見てます。
Please come to Japan🇯🇵 again.

+Jamie N your name is NOT Jamie?
+Jamie N
thank you for thumb up my country.
I thinka so, 😄😄
Ramen is the food I miss the most when I'm not in Japan. That okonomiyaki food looked so tasty. Awesome view from that building.
+Perdomot Thank you... and even though ramen is all over the world, there's something special about eating it in Japan!
I agree. Nothing like getting it from the source.
Me too. My breakfast was often canned coffee and some sort of bread from Famima.
I never had Okonomiyaki before, but I have had Yakisoba....
U
Ohhh that ramen looks AMAZING!!!!
Get out of here xD

It's kinda strange how this guy almost never blinks
You know I never noticed that until I read your comment Lol 😂
Omg you’re right lol
i said that in few of his pass videos 😂
6:53 I love this guy and the pride he displays when making good food. Octopus on top looked amazing.
Ying has the cutest smile 😊 .
Mark, you are an inspiration ! Everytime I watch your vlog I start craving whatever it is you are enjoying. Your descriptions are as delightful as your expressions when you eat. Wonderful work !

I found your UA-cam channel because I'll be heading to Japan and Korea in January 2017.
I can not wait to try out all these amazing places.
ENSeventea same here! Will be going tokyo, osaka and seoul January 17-26!
I love Okonomiyaki... the Chef's are so kind hehehe...
+Charm Dela Cruz Good to hear that, I found in Osaka they are especially nice.
these vlogs from Japan are great
Thank you :-).
+TheMasterOfCook Thank you for watching
Good stuff Mark. Much appreciated.
I love it how japanese always try to explain things in japanese even if you don't have any idea but at the end you kinda feel like you understood.

Hey Mark I got a question. Why do you tilt your head to the right every time you have a bite of a meal
He tilts his head when he likes the food. The more he tilts, the more he likes. If he ever falls off the chair, means it's the best thing he's ever had :)
Loved the ramen that they served in Japan. The egg, the broth etc was out of this world. We ate it every day when we were vacating in Fukuoka. I personally cannot get enough of it. Every ramen restaurant have their own distinct flavours.. mmm . Just thinking about it makes me hungry and I'm back in the UK now.
i love the face you make, when you try the food, so sweet XD
+Red Makeup that what she said!
i just want to say, prawns from thailand, roasted pig from the philippines, beef from kobe an the tuna from osaka.... you hit the holy trinity of food and more.
your eyes couldnt get any bigger when u were amazed!!
I should know better than to watch your videos before bed....I'm so hungry now! Loving these videos, Mark!
These videos always give me mixed feelings. I love the content, and Mark is a great guide when he doesn't have food in his mouth, but at the same time it's really hard for me to sit through the same dead-eyed, wide-eyed stare into the camera for every bit of food that's eaten.
Thanks Mark any Ying! I had no idea Japan offered such a wide variety of foods. This was great!
his face cracks me up all the time
I tried this ramen based on your video! and the time that I went, the queue wasn't very long. The ramen was awesome! Thick and buttery. So delicious!
Love your videos!!
+Kim July Thank you Kim
Im here in Saudi . i always watch your video. thank you Mark, giving us best ideas in traveling.
I'm watching this and my stomach is grumbling
Are u big fan of Mark?. Cuz I love u and you're vids Keep up the great work

Get some antacids 😂
I love your videos on food from Japan. every time you show me something new I look for it in america
Hey Mark,
your videos are awesome as always! ive been watching your videos for a few years now and your video about starting your own blog has really inspired me to do so! your resource on your website is so beneficial. Hope it wont be too long before you come to London again so we can munch together. Keep it up mate!

Im hungry now mark! 😋🍴

+Mark Wiens I enjoy watching your video everyday and never get enough, Did you ever go to Cambodia?
+bioroid09 Where did you go abroad? I doubt it was Japan!
What country did you go to?
i am in Japan at the moment and they dont mind me filming but i feel that the japanese, they dont want to be in the film, maybe shyness. On the other hand, in australia they are quite strict with filming in restaurant

That face when he eats something delicious
Chiney Lee lol that head movement is absurd

+Agumwicak Cahyo haha
+Agumwicak Cahyo yeah true hahah.
so glad i found your channel. read your blogs, so much interesting information and extremely relaxing to watch. thanks!
How much does your chiropractor bills cost with all that neck cranking?
Visited that humble ramen shop last December. Magnificent. Glad I slurped every last drop because I knew I won't be having such a fantastic bowl in a long while.
"just finished eating that bowl of raw men"
lmao k
I love the way you express how good the food are
We almost got kicked out of this famous ramen spot!
Why?
+1981cherokee1 probably because they had to eat fast so other people could eat too
exactly!
+Sōma Yukihira Ha, yup!
+Bangkok Fatty I've noticed that with many eateries in Japan because of the small sizes and demand, you don't have time to sit there enjoy meal and chat.
That ramen and the okonomiyaki looked especially delicious. Whenever I get the motivation to fly over to Japan, I want to make a stop to Osaka.
Has anyone ever told you, that you look like Gollum when you eat?
Great video as usual Mark, love the look of that okonomiyaki restaurant, love how the walls are scattered in messages from people around the world :D. Thanks for the video looking forward to the next.
"you can taste the moistness"
I miss Osaka so much when I'm watching this video.
Okonomiyaki in Osaka is superb!
rich, tender, creamy, and absurd.
Udon/Ramen is the second best Japanese cuisine on my list,the first being sashimi. Thank you for sharing!
Is there a video in which you haven't liked the food?
Yes, airplane food. He he
thailand or vietnam vid, the grilled chicken entrails one
+Janjan Jimenez thanks I just want to see a video where he doesn't have the huge smile and slow motion to the right (every bite literally) lol
+Sol Fayerman-Hansen lol epic head movement
+Sol Fayerman-Hansen His other okonomiyaki video was one. He makes it clear that it's not his favorite food. There's also a video where he ate really bad food in Koh Samui.
Ramen is the best, I was so excited when I saw this video in my subscription box!!
why is he not blinking?
I like your videos before I even watch them, that's how dedicated I am as a viewer :)
Ying is beautiful
+yoshinosakura Nothing is as beautiful as Mark Weins' reactions, not even Mark Weins himself is as beautiful as his own head leaning expressions.
7:14 what the cook sprinkled here is "tenkasu", which is deep-fried dough, crunchy leftovers of cooked "tempura".
ah i wish i had your life lol
miraeja lets share on his life xD
Same 😂
Going to Japan soon - your videos have been such a joy of anticipation. Thank you Mark!
when you eat please don't move your head bro....
I've never seen anyone enjoy food as much as you do. Lol. Great video
You make the most creepiest faces
You deserve a spot on the travel channel!
How can a guy who eats so much be so skinny?
He works out, that's what people say. I have absolute no idea too.
Genetics, plus he doesnt eat greasy food thaat much
If you’re visiting Osaka, you should Meet and talk to locals who like speaking English and meeting foreigners. Join a meetup event. Thank me later.
I can't stand this guys face... i'm sorry, especially during that fictitious look of bowel relief.
i feel the same way..
r u saying his reactions are a bit much that it seems fake?
sundance kidd yes
Will be happy to be a part of this beautiful journey
hes overreacting.
i love watching this video's, can never get sick of it. keep it up mark.
can u make a camera a little farther from your face? it makes me uncomfortable when you are really close. lol
When Mark does the tilt, then you know the food is good!!!
