    Yay cheap eats, played this video immediately. I used to watch every episode but for some reason it felt like the last few episodes (I may have missed some here and there) on my suggestions from you have all been about eating at the most luxurious place possible. Kind of felt blase about those videos after awhile, so super happy to see this one up. Something about cheap eats and seeing the people who help put it together just feels enjoyable to view.

    I lived in Japan for years, and I’ve been back for vacation at-least 20 times over the past 6 years. While it is a great idea to go to non-tourist areas.. sometimes you will get turned away. This typically doesn’t happen at restaurants, but it’s happened to me many times trying to go to izakayas. There has been times I’ve gone in with just one of my American friends and been turned away, then came back 5 minutes later with a Japanese friend and they let us in.
