    We’re Thomas and Sheena, food and travel fiends. We travel full time, hunting for the BEST local food in the world to showcase via our UA-cam videos. Food is a window into a country's culture and one of the most exciting ways to get to know a place.
    We're all about eating what and where the locals eat. You won't find food that's been created merely to be social media worthy on here- no rainbow bagels, gold leaf soft serves- just honest food that tastes incredible.
    From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best food we find on our travels.

    What a treat it is to sit down on a Sunday evening and have you two lovely people bring me a selection of Japanese street food. Loved the Octopus, Meat cutlet and the last restaurant with the skewered chicken that Thomas had. I'm sure that sort of pub could work here in New Zealand. Oh and the tempura place. I love broccoli and cauliflower tempura in particular. I am so loving this Japanese food tour and thanks so much for sharing .

    I've seen you guys say this a few times now and I'm sure the locals appreciate it, but you guys keep saying "Oishii desu" before even eating the food. "oishii" means it taste good or you have eaten it before, so locals are probably like "but they haven't even touched it yet". If you want to say it "looks good" you say "oishisou".
