She is so cute when she does that. Maiko has a cute voice and I love when she switches from Japanese to English. I think that is like "thank you for the meal prayer". Correct me please if wrong.
Hello Paulo. I stumbled across this video and I decided to watch. I thought it was fascinating how the first Bento you grabbed was the kid’s bento when you walked into the shop. Who knew that in the future you would be buying it for your own adorable son!🥰💕
I especially love this video. The beauty about bentos in Japan is it’s really hard to find a bad bento. You may find some that you might not like but never badly made ones.
Ya gotta do more like this! BOTH of you, do these reviews! It totally makes the viewing experience sooo much more authentic! (Sorry, your solo work is awesome) Great job! Thank you very much!
The fact you include the ones that weren't good is one of the reason's I like your channel. Glad I can trust you to not deceive. Thanks for all the great info.
Thanks for showing us all the great food you can get from Tokyo station, we've been through Tokyo station so many times but with how big and busy it was, it kind of put us off! But now I know we missed out on some decent food options! Great job Paolo and Maiko 👍
For all the vegans out there, don't fret! T's Tantan sells a vegan bento box at Tokyo station, and you can also find this same bento box at other bento vendors around the station, just ask for "vegetarian bento". My wife had it and it was delicious!
Just wanna thank your girlfriend for recommending that daruma doll bento. I just had it on the Shinkansen to Awara Onsen and it’s the best bento I have ever eaten.
I'm loving your videos. I'm planning to visit Tokyo in September and this will be first holiday outside of Australia and as some who has a limited budget and traveling solo .l find your content so helpful in planning my holiday
Hello! Paolo and Maiko! Thanks 4 doing this video! Now i know what Bento i Will buy if I’m going 2 Tokyo (again) More Videos to come! GOD bless both of U🙏🏻
I wish you guys made this video a month before! I had such a hard time picking bento at Tokyo Station and I wasn't the happiest with mine. The daruma one looks so fun! My bf had an octopus one though that was very yummy. It comes in a clay pot if anyone is interested. Super worth it!
14:25 actually we just bought a train and my melody that u can put your food and drink in few weeks ago at macdo xD it was really nice because its also a 2 way so u can also hang it on the car sit
The Shinkansen bento makes a happy meal look cheap and stupid! I didn't realize Tokyo Station had so many bento places! I would've liked to see a bit more video of walking up to the counter just to get a frame of reference instead of a map. However, the review of the food is what is important. I love Paolo's reaction to food he likes and Maiko always pops her eyes open and exclaims oishiiiiii with a mouthful of food. haha. Looking forward to the next episode! Thanks again!
That was some mouthwatering toro slice. Tokyo station was so big! And full of criss crossing salarymen who walked fast. And they were your competitor along side housewives at 8pm discount hour :D Thank you for the vid, I’ll be sure to check it next time
I wish I get to try one of those bento! I usually just bring 7eleven snacks into shinkansen trip when I was in Japan. But now I heard they have halal bentos so I hope to try them next time hehe
Great video! Ive been a fan of your content for some time. Its great to see what bento boxes are available because im heading back to Tokyo at the end of December. Keep up the good work!
Tokyo station is one of the best place to get train station bento! If i remember correctly, there's this 1 big shop that has a hugeee variety of bento to choose from, from the regular to the exotics! Thanks for the video, Paolo! Cheers from Jakarta! **Edit** That shop is the 3rd shop Paolo mentioned!
Literally had the same bento from Yamanobori when we visited home couple month ago! We took it to Chiba, Softbank Hawks last season game and it was amazing!
This is interesting, funny also, but mainly quiet explanatory video, thank you for sharing. :) I'll be in Japan soon, my 3rd time already but my wife's first one, and I'm doing some good research in order to bring to her some good, hopefully the best, experiences possible. I'm following your videos for some time and all of it is so good what makes us so much more anxious to be there in Japan! Thank you again for sharing! Please send our regards to your wife also, she made this video funnier! Isn't she kawaii desho? she reminds me my niece. :)
Great stuff as always. Really cool hearing both of your takes on everything with food, especially Maiko being native. I'm with you though - all about the fried chicken, katsu, and anything like it!
Paolo, I love your and Maiko's videos and the Japanese SUBTITLES you have added; as I am trying to learn Japanese. I know I am asking a lot but a JAPANESE LANGUAGE VOICE OVER that could be switched ON AND OFF to go with the SUBTITLES would make this one of the best Japanese learning tools that I have come across. You guys are speaking every day useful language and I cannot really find any other site or with your level of enthusiasm. YOU GUYS ROCK !!
Your videos are excellent and informative.. reading up everything now on Shibuya, your hometown as we'll be there in 29 days .. can't wait... Thank you @Pablo!
I'm heading to Japan at the end of April (During Golden Week) and one of the biggest highlights is the Shinkasen from Tokyo-Kyoto and back......Pick up a few Bentos along the way..... Honestly, I want those child ones just as a souvenir
Kaiseki would be my favourite! But I wish there's sweet beans in it though. Old person taste. Hahahah.. yes this old person here but with a young heart!
Came across your channel early this year and subscribed right away because your contents and videos are very very informative. Your videos actually made me plan a trip to Tokyo in April next year. I want to explore all the places you've featured but the only one thing i am nervous about is moving around Tokyo by train. I am so initimidated by the whole metro system. I am afraid i might get lost in the sea of people and take the wrong train.
The first bowl, considering each piece of those sashimi could cost $7, that bowl is a great deal! Can’t wait to go back to Japan. ESP with $$$ so strong right now. 😂
Maiko! It's good to have opinions from you and Maiko, that way it seems less biased and it's also great for you to have shops other than Ekibenya Matsuri. For me I always go for the salmon/salmon roe, saba sushi, or self heating gyutan. Funny that my self heating box did work properly last time. Perhaps another video just for the self heating types of bento+some other interesting types?
Ohh I'm obsessed with Ekiben nd I would go straight for the old person taste one hahha🤣 didn't know there are Kaiseki Ekiben whuoo. Thank you so much for sharing, this was a viewer service for me only because haha, I love them so much and can't get enough from them ^^/
nice video, it reminds me of my childhood back 20 years ago, I used to watch japanese TV program called TV Champion, and there was one episode where the contestants need to guess which bento made from each train station. I think at that time each train station have unique bento that distinguish each other. Wondering if they still have it now...
YESSS! Thanks for reminding me of that show! I remember the train bento episode as well, and how one contestant guessed even before tasting because he recognized the stair layout, and another from the peas in the bento haha
They all look so yummy!! My first taste of uni was in NYC and ever since I’ve been wanting to eat more. Hoping I can visit Japan one day and eat all the things 💕 Thank you for another great video! 😊
See, I thought number 8 looked the best out of them all. I love pickled/fermented foods - and it's super healthy to boot. I try to be more vegetarian these days anyway. How hard is it to be vegetarian in Japan? What if you don't like seafood? I like shrimp, but I hate fish, don't really care much for the rest of it either - lobster, crab, etc.
Hi Paolo! have you seen vegetarian bento in Tokyo station? It was so hard to me (a non japanese speaker) to fin anything but salad. Thanks for your work, i really like your videos! Keep going ♥ hugs from Chile
I'm a vegan but for some reason I can not stop watching your videos... I would love if you made a vegan japanese food video... I know is hard but that would be awesome
i like how she says "itadakimasu" in every video before eating
Aren’t Japanese people supposed to do that?
She is so cute when she does that. Maiko has a cute voice and I love when she switches from Japanese to English. I think that is like "thank you for the meal prayer". Correct me please if wrong.
@@dewdew4047 Yes
I couldn’t remember the Word for this, it’s been bugging me for a while… Thank you for reminding me!.

Thanks Millennial Travel Confessions! It is a bit overwhelming but worth stopping by if you are going to get on a Shinkansen.
For all the vegans out there, don't fret! T's Tantan sells a vegan bento box at Tokyo station, and you can also find this same bento box at other bento vendors around the station, just ask for "vegetarian bento". My wife had it and it was delicious!
Koenigg99 ty for this!
Yeah cheers for that. I was just wondering about that myself.
I can eat
Chicken, mutton, beef.
And I am a Muslim. So the meat has to be cut in a specific way...
So if I go there, I will only get to try vegetarian
How about pp who dont eat soy and pork meat? Am I going to have problems to find something nice? Dont wanna eat veggie food XD
I love T’s Tantan!
Paolo... branch out and refine your tastes! There’s more to life than fried chicken! Ha!
Good episode, having a bento on the shinkensen was a bucket list tick, yum.
"Old person tastes"...should I be offended? Just kidding. Always enjoy your videos! Thanks for producing.
you should, ask him to take you around when you are in japan! :p haaaa
@@mooreshady ft y
I love this channel. When I went to Japan with my friends your videos helped a lot. Thx for all ur hard work.
Awesome! Glad you found the info in my vids useful SoUL_ABysS!
I think I would be smiling most of the time too with all those bentos.
"Refined old person taste" 😅😅 best description ever!
I am always amazed by the amount of food you guys manage to gobble away. Thanks for all the great tips!
Just wanna thank your girlfriend for recommending that daruma doll bento. I just had it on the Shinkansen to Awara Onsen and it’s the best bento I have ever eaten.
I'm glad there was an almost vegetarian option, thanks to Maiko
same! i was hoping for that
Paolo looks like a boss from a yakuza game, but he’s always smiling. I love it so much haha
I'm loving your videos. I'm planning to visit Tokyo in September and this will be first holiday outside of Australia and as some who has a limited budget and traveling solo .l find your content so helpful in planning my holiday
Train Bento ...wow sold me into it. A lunch for kids....awesome.
I really 💗 ekibens! I love the kids ones they are so cute. Thank again for another great video 👏👏👏
Hello! Paolo and Maiko!

Dude, Love your videos. Keep doing what you're doing. They are great. I'll be there in 3 weeks........
Thanks KINGOTHL!
仕出し弁当
Delicious food 🌷🌸🌺🌻
I was looking forward to getting a bento box when I went last time, but I was so overwhelmed, I just ran to the train instead
I like the Kaiseki one as I like a variety of tastes, textures & lots of veg. Most of all is visual apeal.
Love your videos, they're coming helpful
I wish you guys made this video a month before! I had such a hard time picking bento at Tokyo Station and I wasn't the happiest with mine. The daruma one looks so fun! My bf had an octopus one though that was very yummy. It comes in a clay pot if anyone is interested. Super worth it!

These videos always come out Saturday morning and I always make time every Saturday morning to watch it 👍🏽
Thanks CutieChik99! I appreciate you making time on your Saturday mornings.

Coming from Hawaii, I love bentos... bentos are my favorite
Thank you so much, Paolo! I love your videos! they have been SUPER USEFUL during my stay in Japan😀, plus you always seem so kind and funny.
he is i love these video
the bento,s look really good,probably my fav for sure.
So helpful! We usually just walk around under the Shinkansen and just grab something that looks "neat".
That was some mouthwatering toro slice. Tokyo station was so big! And full of criss crossing salarymen who walked fast. And they were your competitor along side housewives at 8pm discount hour :D Thank you for the vid, I’ll be sure to check it next time
Paolo deserves more subscribers!
Whammy It’ll only be a matter of time until his subs skyrockets!
I like this types of videos, hopefully you make more!
I wish I get to try one of those bento! I usually just bring 7eleven snacks into shinkansen trip when I was in Japan. But now I heard they have halal bentos so I hope to try them next time hehe
Comment before watching ! Love your videos.
Thanks for watching Kristal Lee!
The Sendai beef tongue w/ self heater is the GOAT ekiben
I love your.channel, your videos are fantastic and very informative. Thank you for this, I’m hoping to visit Japan one day in the near future
Great video! Ive been a fan of your content for some time. Its great to see what bento boxes are available because im heading back to Tokyo at the end of December. Keep up the good work!
haha It's exactly as you said!
Tokyo station is one of the best place to get train station bento! If i remember correctly, there's this 1 big shop that has a hugeee variety of bento to choose from, from the regular to the exotics!
Thanks for the video, Paolo! Cheers from Jakarta!
**Edit** That shop is the 3rd shop Paolo mentioned!
Yup, that one is in the vid.
I love when Maiko speaks Japanese so kawaii!!
Love your content! Would be great to have a bento video of shinjuku station as that'll be my main transport hub in March :) keep up the good work
Paolo. You are great! Love your videos!!
AWESOME. I want the Hello Kitty one.
Literally had the same bento from Yamanobori when we visited home couple month ago! We took it to Chiba, Softbank Hawks last season game and it was amazing!
Bentos are the best!!!!!! ♥️ thanks for the details on we're they are all located great info Paolo!!!
Glad you liked this bento episode.
@@PaolofromTOKYO bentos and sashimi are my friends!!!! 😊
This is interesting, funny also, but mainly quiet explanatory video, thank you for sharing. :)
I'll be in Japan soon, my 3rd time already but my wife's first one, and I'm doing some good research in order to bring to her some good, hopefully the best, experiences possible. I'm following your videos for some time and all of it is so good what makes us so much more anxious to be there in Japan! Thank you again for sharing! Please send our regards to your wife also, she made this video funnier! Isn't she kawaii desho? she reminds me my niece. :)
Love it the review on the red Bento
You two are just so cute!!❤️
Great stuff as always. Really cool hearing both of your takes on everything with food, especially Maiko being native. I'm with you though - all about the fried chicken, katsu, and anything like it!
Thanks Tom Szelag! We love the same things.

How is your japanese learning 2 years later?
Looking forward to the bento boxes in japan, cause I’m visiting Tokyo in March and your videos are helping me with food choices. Thanks
The kid's bento was the original 1964 Shinkansen 0 Series train! Until I saw this video, the only train bento box was the N700 Series.
Your videos are excellent and informative.. reading up everything now on Shibuya, your hometown as we'll be there in 29 days .. can't wait... Thank you @Pablo!
I recently found your Chanel and really enjoying watching your videos keep up the good job. love from your Cypriot fan.
Thanks Panayiota Konizou! I appreciate the love.
For someone who is used to the US diet, these things come with too much rice and too little meat. But the flavor is definitely good in general.
I really wanna try japanese bento
Excellent as always. I want the daruma bento for the pot alone!
...adding I want the train one too now lol
Maiko’s English is so good
I love your videos man!! You always be on point!!
I'm heading to Japan at the end of April (During Golden Week) and one of the biggest highlights is the Shinkasen from Tokyo-Kyoto and back......Pick up a few Bentos along the way.....
Honestly, I want those child ones just as a souvenir
Have an awesome trip Steven W!

Thumbs up for your vlogs, and I subscribed I find myself amused with your work every time I tune in- the effects/ work ethics/ quality👍👍👍🎀
初めまして。いつも楽しく拝見させて頂いてます☻
今度は銀座ガイド見てみたいです！食べ歩きは難しいかもしれませんが、銀座も美味しい店が沢山ありますし、また発見もしたいので期待しています◎是非ともよろしくお願いします☆☆☆
The first bowl, considering each piece of those sashimi could cost $7, that bowl is a great deal! Can’t wait to go back to Japan. ESP with $$$ so strong right now. 😂
The last bento looks soooo good! 😍 too bad neither of you were into it
Thanks for all the infos! My wife and I are planning to go there one day.
Hey Paolo! Would you do a video on Ameyoko Market if you haven’t already?! I think that would be interesting to see.
I was hoping for a top 20, then the last bento would have been so entertaining, for us the viewers that is ha ha ;)
One time when I saw a bento that had a best seller as seen on tv sign next to it so I decided to try it out, turn out to be a beef tongue bento...
Maiko! It's good to have opinions from you and Maiko, that way it seems less biased and it's also great for you to have shops other than Ekibenya Matsuri.

Paolo, can you do videos of seafood in Japan? I know they are pricey but the quality is waaay better
nice video, it reminds me of my childhood back 20 years ago, I used to watch japanese TV program called TV Champion, and there was one episode where the contestants need to guess which bento made from each train station.

YESSS! Thanks for reminding me of that show! I remember the train bento episode as well, and how one contestant guessed even before tasting because he recognized the stair layout, and another from the peas in the bento haha
Hah I came from the making of bento train boxes so it feels like a nice circle back
Thank you so much for your videos Paolo!!! Great work! Do you know of any bento boxes in that vegan, at Tokyo station?
love your videos!!!!!!!!!b
They all look so yummy!! My first taste of uni was in NYC and ever since I’ve been wanting to eat more. Hoping I can visit Japan one day and eat all the things 💕 Thank you for another great video! 😊

Can we get a skincare routine cause both of yall skin always look amazing
hahahha...I just use the shampoo suds to wash my face. Maiko on the other hand has a process....
@@PaolofromTOKYO I was wondering if maiko's skin is also a result of her eating habits
Aka all the veggies
Love the channel
Hi Paolo! have you seen vegetarian bento in Tokyo station? It was so hard to me (a non japanese speaker) to fin anything but salad. Thanks for your work, i really like your videos! Keep going ♥ hugs from Chile
Of course !
I'm a vegan but for some reason I can not stop watching your videos... I would love if you made a vegan japanese food video... I know is hard but that would be awesome
lol me too There's even a vegan kaiseki restaurant now!
