I get that Paolo was making a joke, because that's part of his personality, but this time I kinda felt like it was a bit much. Jokes about spouses can be taken the wrong way easily.
@@CroweFeather He doesn't actually say the jokes that are said after they stop talking, thankfully. After living in Japan for several years, and having a Japanese wife, I think he knows that this kind of joke wouldn't fly with a more reserved Japanese person.
@@cuongme626 in a way it is easier to be an employee. You don't have to handle the risks of owning a bussnies. Also a store manager is pretty close to an owner.
It is so cool to see this. My grandparents owned a tea shop in San Francisco Japantown and I grew up making Taiyaki and still have a few scars on my forearms from when I was younger :). He is much more generous with his anko than I was!
Watching this.... Losing track of the time.. then Paolo says..." then the shop opens" This dude did more before opening than i do before Breakfast in the morning. Love the work ethic. Thanks Paolo and crew!!!
Ah, taiyaki. That was my ‘gateway drug’ into the world of anko (red bean) sweets. Anyway, I can tell this place takes their product seriously. (mouth watering…)
for me the gateway drug to anko was some mochi found at World Market (still have not found a good source of Taiyaki around me.) its a nice sweet but not too sweet treat
Im really impressed how japanese people are so proud of whatever they do, even when you are just making a dessert basically... i wish more people was like this in the world.
Japan isn't perfect. But the importance they put on tradition, honor, and community is what makes this possible. They make it a point to try to pass these techniques down. And the community respects and supports the skill and craftsmanship.
Paolo, you are one of the best when it comes to editing your videos out there. Keep up the attention to detail and the love you put into your work. It's appreciated all around the world. :)
@@PaolofromTOKYO honestly I've tried to watch other day in the life or behind the counter videos. Nobody comes close to you with the editing and being able to captive and hold the attention from your audience. Thank you so much for such great videos!
So glad you finally did one of these at a taiyaki shop. I just opened a Taiyaki food truck in the US and really want to go back to Japan and get some hands on experience at a few different taiyaki shops. This was really cool to see 🙂
I tried a custard one for the first time a few weeks ago while visiting and instantly regretted not having one everyday of my trip. I'll be sure to visit this place next year when I'm back!
I love your videos Paolo keep them coming. I also love when you take Wolfie to places like the hotels. I have an autistic son and he loves watching Wolfie play and laugh. Makes him smile so much. Thank you for that.
Paolo, I love your videos so much! I appreciate the effort you and your team put into these videos! I've learned so much from these types of videos and love seeing your family grow. I hope one day to visit these places when I go to Japan 🥹
Amazing to see Paolo at this shop, we were there a couple months ago during our trip to Japan! The original Tayaki is vegan which was great!! Really recommend it!!
Not trying to argue with you, as I never had this. But how much more vegan does it need to be? The batter is just flour, water, & whatever else. The filling is just red beans. I don't see any animal parts in the video.
@@Vagabond_Etranger I mentioned that this Tayaki IS vegan, I said “original” because they seem to have variations there which might not be, like the ones with cream cheese, but their regular / original one is indeed vegan. There many pastries of this kind that at first sight seem vegan but end up containing eggs or milk and in Japan is not easy to find 100% vegan sweets - but we strongly recommend this shop!!
Amazing work as always. Could you perhaps, make a behind the scenes of your videos? I love to see how you do it. I have a lot of questions, for example, are you alone when doing these or do you have a cameraman and such? Are the day in a life of series a recreation of their routin or did you actually put cameras in someone's home to capture the day easier? And a lot more.
Paolo, can you please speak more in Japanese! I like your Japanese ever since that one medical video you made, I was impressed!! Would love to see it more often
Thank you for sharing this awesome video. I loved seeing and learning about all the behind the scenes work to prepare this Japanese treat. I’m also interested in the employee’s matcha red bean drink!
Great video, I wish we had things like this in the US. I love how even in small shops they strive to do their best. For the next one, could we see something animal related? Like a veterinarian or biologist?
for being five o'clock in the morning, it looked REALLY bright outside! i feel stupid asking this, but do they have daylight savings time in Japan? or did it just appear super bright thanks to the camera's settings..?
@@DanishButterCookie where I live, in North Carolina if the hour didn't go forward in march, The sun would begin rising around 4:30 AM during the Summer.

i loved this video. i have been following you for years. This is the very first video that i had to mute and captioned with translation. I do not have any triggers, but there was a constant bell ringing in the background that really got to me for some reason. I'm sorry i couldn't finish watching it, but it really got to me
Hi Paolo! This was awesome! I was totally just talking to someone, asking what these fish shaped pastries were! Love your channel, and you have perfect timing ;)
Will definitely have to try this when we plan to visit Tokyo next year! Several other things I want to try as well, that I didn’t get a chance to the last time I was there back in 2016.
ありがとうございます Paolo さん your videos are so interesting and really help me learn Japanese ! It's great how you ask the questions in English the let the people respond in Japanese that little bit of help with context is just enough for me to be prepared for the snswer and understand the Japanese (or at least some of it 😂).
@paolofromtokyo Thanks Paolo. I always went to the taiyaki place across from the station, but they closed. This one is even closer. There is also two awesome bars nearby: Soul Sisters to the left, and Epilogue on the next street. (Not to mention a park to the right). Love Ebisu. Thanks!
I could tell from buying taiyaki from the shops in Tenjinbashi that these people work hard, especially during the busy hours! Sometimes people are waiting 15 minutes for this stuff, so of course such hardworking people probably got up so early in the morning! Thanks for covering! I also tried a similar street snack in Osaka called “御座候”. That pancake was round instead of fish shaped. Have you heard of it?
I was in Tokyo in late May and of course I stopped by Tayaki Sharaku, from one of your old videos. The elderly owners were really lovely and their tayaki were as crispy and tasty as you said! 😊😊😊
Paolo...have you ever hosted a Food Tour thru Japan...that would be awesome for people wanting to visit and who are foodies but dont know where to even start.

Behind the Counter and Day in the Life series are my jam.
The man who came to the store again because his wife liked it was sweet.
Probably his wife asked him to buy some.
I love how the owner is always smiling. The typical Kansai-jin
Clearly didn't watch the video. He's not the owner.
He's the manager but I would have left ages ago to set up my own shop instead of working there for 18 years.

No reason why you can't make something similar at home

Ah, taiyaki. That was my ‘gateway drug’ into the world of anko (red bean) sweets. Anyway, I can tell this place takes their product seriously. (mouth watering…)
What would you say it taste like? I'm going to Japan in October, but the idea of beans in a desert doesn't seem that appealing.
It seems like reverse chili to me but since I am going in September I got to eat them all I guess.
for me the gateway drug to anko was some mochi found at World Market (still have not found a good source of Taiyaki around me.) its a nice sweet but not too sweet treat
No tai fish used whatsoever.

Taiyaki Saiko! Thanks for the next great vid Paolo

We literally tried taiyakis for the first time with my boyfriend today, and Paolo delivers this 😮 it's behind the counter night!
Yay Paolo now in 4K! 😎 Thank you for the great episode I love taiyaki.
Paolo, please never stop doing 'Behind the Counter' videos! They're my absolute favourites on YT!
The bell constantly ringing during service isn’t annoying 😅
oh my god i wondered where that ringing noise came from until saw the bell at the end of the video xD
I'd go crazy working there because of it
Hahahahaa try working in Donki,!,
I can’t even stand being a customer in Donki beyond fifteen minutes 😂
Bro these people really work hard man damn ... the chef looks sooo chill and nice
amazing to meet people who are truly immersed and proud of their work. his smile says everything. humble but knows what he can do. 💯
keep these series coming! you do such a great job from video to telling the restaurants stories!
This video is literally so sweet! What a great way to end the week!

Love the store manager attitude ❤
Awesome video as always Paolo. The Taiyaki looks so delicious definitely going to have to try this when I come to Japan.

It's amazing how he has it all down to a science.

Sounds great.

Hello paolo , I really like your videos and I love the day in life series, keep going 👏👏👏🙏🤍
This was such a fun video!! ^_^ I loved trying taiyaki through SakuraCo. Thanks Paolo!
thank youuu for another amazing video!!
Thanks for watching!
Nice video as usual! The Taiyaki looks amazing.
I still think a day in the life of a Japanese athlete would be cool
An Olympic or National champion would be great. A Japanese fashion designer would also be good. ❤
Tsunoda Natsumi, recently gold medal at the Olympics in Judo has a UA-cam channel too. It would be amazing to see it!
I love eating taiyaki very much, im definitely want some from here next time I visit Japan.
It's 5am & it's as bright as that!? Wow!
Yeah, from my research, earliest it should rise in Japan is 4:43am, and that is waaaaay brighter than 17 mins after sunrise.
Such a fun visit. Thanks for giving us this tour Paolo!
I've had this Taiyaki with the soft serve and can confirm it's absolutely mind blowing!
I love these videos. I haven't been to Japan though, but through these videos it feels like I have spent a day or two already. 😊
Great video, I wish we had things like this in the US. I love how even in small shops they strive to do their best. For the next one, could we see something animal related? Like a veterinarian or biologist?
They do we just deep fry things here you sure you are from the US or maybe you never been to a fair before.
You must not get out much if you think the U.S doesn't have such mom and pop shops and restaurants.
Looks great!!
