    Commenting for the algo: As many bento's as I've seen you enjoy, I'm afraid that if it were me I would have collected all the bamboo boxes and crafted them into decorator boxes for my home lol. It's good to see you again. Have a great day! :)

    Love to see new vids from Solo, particularly these specialty trains!
    Lovely décor and meal, I love the woodwork in the compartments.
    That must be old track they're running on to have that characteristic 'clack-clack' as you run over the expansion joints. New track doesn't have those and is thus much smoother and quieter.

    @DinnerForkTongue 11 วันที่ผ่านมา +2

    For 390K yen, the dining service could have at least offered some metal silverware, huh. The food and drink are fine enough, but the implements really could use a touch-up, even if glass cups are inviable, and the wood spoon just looked cheap.

    I was wondering about the name of the train, but thankfully you immediately explained. The train looks beautiful and the bento box delicious. However, for me, the journey would be too long (in Shinkansen, it would be less than one hour). And serving sake with a paper cup or curry in a plastic bowl are "no go" for me, in this kind of luxury train.

    The scenic views from your window were beautiful and varied but the bumpy ride must have been uncomfortable to experience while eating such a beautiful meal. Your compartment was cozy, cheerful and warm. The chicken curry looked portioned to be but a free sample size. Thought the same thing about the price being too much for just yourself.

    Darn! Everything was going so great. One of my best friends from NY moved to Japan in 1988 -- Cape Toi in Kyushu! I even paused in the beginning to understand how 39 means "san kuu". I even wrote to my best friend asking her if she knows about 39 meaning thank you? I then was eating a homemade organic bowl of chicken curry while watching your video... AND YET, YOU HAD TO GO DESTROY THE WHOLE ENDING BY PLANTING A THOUGHTFORM OF THE STUPID SUNFLOWER SONG PLAYING AND THEN, I COULDN'T GET THE STUPID HORRIBLE SUNFLOWER SONG OUT OF MY HEAD FOR HOURS! That's it -- I'm removing the LIKE I put up there. LOL 😛

Does anyone here know what happens to these boxes once used? Are they re-used / recycled or are the passengers allowed to take them home? Looking forward to the next video :-)

    What a gorgeous train! Sucks a bit that it was slow, but it gives you time to enjoy the scenery and food (if you don’t get motion sickness of course). I absolutely love that you’re covering lots of the Kyushu trains because they’re really cool, and I think that more tourists will be inspired by others like you.
    Also, do you know how many times I get the Sunflower song stuck in my head? Lots. It’s my favourite flower so I can hear that song almost every time I see one. Anywho…thanks Solo-san and see you next time!

    I agree that it was pricey for that ticket. While the train is beautiful, I would have expected the seating to be more comfortable where you could recline a bit or put feet up instead of sitting upright in front of a table for over 5 hours. And serving a paper coffee cup with the sake? That's cheap. They could've at least given you a glass or even plastic.

    Well, that was an enjoyable, bumpy trip. The food looked really nice. The decor was "busy" for my taste, but I got the design era. I don't understand why you must pay extra because you are travelling alone. Now, if the train was packed and they wanted to maximize butts in the seats, okay, because that compartment looked like it was designed for four people. Just because you want to travel upscale and not in what I call "Cattle Class" is unfair. They can sell more seats then. Ask if you want to pay extra or don't mind having some travelling company. And yes, the trip was pricey regardless.

    • @AnniekinsMyshkamouse-r4j
      @AnniekinsMyshkamouse-r4j 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Cruise ships are the same. Price is per person, double occupancy. If only one person, they loose half the cost. Typically is fifty percent extra if traveling alone. I see their point, but disagree.
