In Sydney, Australia where I live I can buy a variety of Chinese delicacies includiing "hom sui gok" and "jin dui" in shops in my local suburb. I have been a fan of them for years.
@@lynnechamberlain5962 Yes, Sydney has a lot of excellent dim sum eateries, many on par with HK as many of the dim sum chefs are from HK. Sydney has great ethnic eats! 😋
What a lovely Chinatown. Especially the smaller side streets which are so atmospheric! The food all looked good to me, particularly the ham sui gok (fried mochi dumpling). Thank you for an interesting walk on a beautiful, sunny day, Shinichi. I hope Satoshi's headache cleared up quickly. ❤️❤️
Yokohama looks amazing and the food/snacks delicious. And Satoshi is so nice that he comes along even with a headache. Love your videos Shinichi. You rock!
Hi Shinichi, Loved the tour around Chinatown. Great atmosphere seeing the different shops, temples and places to eat. Liked the look of the Taiwanese chicken and crispy duck. Panda 🐼 buns looked cute as well. Can I recommend to Satoshi to get some “Tiger Balm Ointment “ the white one. As I noticed he gets headaches a few times. I get migraines and I rub this on my forehead and temples and it alleviates the pain. Worth trying out , hope it helps. Look forward to more videos and hope you guys get to Hawaii this year . Arigato 👍😀
In the part of the US where I live, trendy foods are usually added to existing menus at existing restaurants, they don’t open shops that just sell the item. Unless.....it’s something that they know will last. Like frozen yogurt. When that first came out there were a lot of frozen yogurt shops that popped up. Most of them are still around, they just add new items to keep up with trends....such as toppings like boba, poppers, fruit buffets, cereals. Etc... Like Pink Berry and Green Frog yogurt shops. They also made some self serve...like Green Frog. *Have you guys ever been to a Green Frog yogurt shop? If not, you should see if there is one in Hawaii while you’re there. I really think you’ll enjoy it because you get your own yogurt and choose all your toppings from the topping bar, and it’s sold by weight. They have 3 different sized bowls* If you do go, browse the topping bar before you get your yogurt so you’re not overwhelmed. ✌🏻💕😊
So excited if you make it to Hawaii. Hope you can do the collab with Amanda and Felux when you are here. Hope Satoshi felt better. You are right, Shinichi, he needs to hydrate more with liquids other than coffee and beer, especially in hot weather! Lol♥️
Thankyou for the tour of Chaina town in Yokohama , it has so much to see and explore. But the food looks define , the Taiwanese chicken was so crispy and not to spicy perfect. I was so curious about the cloud ice cream shop they looked interesting. But those photos on the wall were so interesting, and the temple is so beautiful. I hope your feeling better Satoshi since the making of this video thanks Shinichi this was an amazing experience. 🤗💛👍
We weren't mad at how many boba shops there were last time we were in Japan - it's one of our favorite things to have, and still a little hard to find it made well in most neighborhoods in Chicago, if you can believe it! Annin doufu soft serve sounds delicious 🤤
Love to see the other cities and Yokohama has a Chinatown! Sweet! Thanks for sharing, one day when Japan opens their borders, we want to plan a vacation and also add on Okinawa. Long time waiting...
Have you been to the big flea market in Yokohama that has like 600 venders? Plus street food? Plus a bunch of those mega ice cream cone machines on the walk from the station? I really enjoyed visiting it in 2018 when I was there.
2018 experience again, but behind the main station in Kobe is a waterfall and some good views on a little hike. I don’t know if the woman is still there, but she was there when I was there above the waterfall and she had some food and drinks. Good memory!
That is ham Sui gok made from rice flouer with meat inside,you should have that inside dim sum restaurant for the outside should be crispy and puffed up.the white thing is lo mi chi,made sticky rice flour,usually different inside like sugar chopped peanut,bean paste,
We drove by a city on the train that looked a lot like this after we arrived at Haneda and it blew our minds. That is when it really hit us that we were in Japan.
I'm glad to know that you guys are heading to Kobe. There's also a famous Chinatown in Kobe. I hope you get to film there too. There's a shop there that sells Kobe beef burgers and I'm curious if they're any good.
China Town gives many locals economy operating many chinese food. Its a big economic hub attracting global tourist and locals from various interstates of Japan.
Yes, I think about three or four years before the COVID scare happened there was a major hype over Taiwanese fried chicken. It started because Hot Star Chicken opened a shop in downtown Toronto and then other Chinese eateries started selling their own version of the Hot Star product. But from looking at the pictures of these items, they mostly looked commercialized and unauthentic and the prices weren't reasonable because it's expensive to set up any kind of food business in this city. The three other crazes that also boomed out around the same time were the Thai Ice-cream, Hawaiian Poke and Korean Friend Chicken. I think only the Korean Fried Chicken has lasted through the hype and it's because the stores are mostly restricted within areas where there are a lot Korean restaurants so people continue to get these products. I could be wrong with my opinion and someone from Toronto can correct me.
i know what you guys mean about food trends in your city. the last big food trend we had -- or at least i can remember -- was the Tennessee HOT fried chicken. this place called Howlin' Ray's opened up, and within a year, there must've been a dozen or more Tennessee hot fried chicken joints throughout Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. of course we went through a Boba trend and a Poké trend, not to mention the food truck trend, and so-on and so-on and so-on...
I'm sad that I couldn't stay awake for the live stream. Jin dui is azuki filled mochi rolled in sesame and deep fried. I believe the item you tried is called Ham Sui Gok (the football shaped, deep fried, filled with stuff, mochi that I also love).
When is strawberry season? One thing I really wanna try while I’m in Japan are the candied strawberries on a stick. I’ve heard from everyone that Japan has the best strawberries. 🍓💕 That coconut mochi looked really good. I don’t like anko bean paste, so when you bit into it and it was custard I was so happy that I clapped my hands. 😂 Plus, coconut is my favorite fruit(?)/flavor(?), anything coconut...sweet or savory...I just love it all~!
@@lt5466 just the ones that they package specifically for gifts. Strawberries to eat aren’t any more expensive than the ones at my local supermarket, but the Japanese ones are supposed to be sweeter.
hi Im watching from Philippines , I always watched your video, pls. visit our country too spe. Boracay, by the way I really missed Japan , stay safe i love you both💚💚💚
Some other common fillings you may find in the shredded coconut mochi are: red bean paste, dried shredded coconut flakes with sesame seeds, white sugar, and ground peanuts, and sometimes sweet black sesame paste. Please let us know in a future video if you try other flavors! Would love to know your favorite! :)
I always look at who takes the biggest piece or the one that has the most filling. It's usually always the same person. In my family we were taught to give the best and biggest piece away always.
As a child our mom usually cut things in half to be fair, but if we cut them in half then the one who didn’t cut got to choose which half they wanted. This kept it fair and the one cutting always made sure it was as even as possible since they knew they couldn’t choose first. As an adult it seems ridiculous to worry about something like that and if it’s still something that bothers someone who is an adult that is kind of worrying behavior. I mean...as an adult you can always buy more if you want it....and we all should have learned not to be a glutton in our childhood. As with myself and the hubby or my son...or anyone really, I always take the smaller piece because I don’t eat as much as they do and I have digestive issues. That is unspoken, but we all know I want the smallest piece. So...since Satoshi and Sinichi are adults, who have been together for 20+ years...they probably also know who will want which piece.
Shinichi, it was very strange hearing you say you chewed well. Usually you do not! Several whacks and it's down. It would definitely be a better example if you chewed more...and don't worry about talking. You talk plenty, and are constantly showing yourself!
Would LOVE to see you guys again, it's been years. I'd meet you in Yokohama or you an come south of there to the beach nearby us. PM me if you want to meet up on my Insta!!
The fried mochi dumpling with pork, shrimp and veggies is called "hom sui gok" in Cantonese. Jin dui is the fried sesame ball with sweet bean filling.
THANK YOU! I was wondering what it was!
In Sydney, Australia where I live I can buy a variety of Chinese delicacies includiing "hom sui gok" and "jin dui" in shops in my local suburb. I have been a fan of them for years.

I loved how Satoshi perked up once he started eating :D
Everything looks very fresh and tasty. My favourite ice cream is Matcha flavoured.
Yokohama looks amazing and the food/snacks delicious. And Satoshi is so nice that he comes along even with a headache. Love your videos Shinichi. You rock!
The chinatown looks so athmospheric and pittoresque, and all the food you tried look very good (and cute!) too! I really want to visit sometime.
I love you guys and your videos. You take me away from my boring location. Thank you.
Love to see Chinatown in Japan. It gives me excited to see what Japan offers and the building

Hi Shinichi and Satoshi good to see you all enjoying another of street food take care stay safe 👍😊🤩🥰😘❤️😘🤩
美鳳 lady knows her business, making customers feel welcome. 👍
Guys, thanks for the nice tour of Chinatown. I've added to my "must visit" list.
Some lovely food, especially those panda buns were adorable
Great video, some of those narrow streets had almost a Studio Ghibli feeling. This is a nice complement to the Tabi Eats videos.
I just arrived to Japan yesterday and will be visiting Yokohama today. This video has been very helpful. Thank you!
Elephant soft serve, panda buns, cloud ice cream. So much food cuteness!!! Wish I could be there! 😋😄🐘🐼🌸🍓🍦😊
Love watching you guys try different food. Shout out to Hong Kong noodles. Anything from Hong Kong I love to hear about
Loved this vid . Thank you for taking use with you to see what you tasted and what you experienced. 💕💖👍

Yeah they do that here in the U.S. too, for example...hard to get a burger with a regular bun anymore 😏
Another great video thank you for taking us along with you. Satoshi needs to drink more water for his headaches but I know he doesn't like it.

I've been to that Park in Yokohama and sat there eating snacks many times.
Shinichi, you got the name correct Jinduoi.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Is this the same guy on the " I Will Always Travel For Food" Channel?
Good morning
Shinichi, it was very strange hearing you say you chewed well. Usually you do not! Several whacks and it's down. It would definitely be a better example if you chewed more...and don't worry about talking. You talk plenty, and are constantly showing yourself!
I don’t know what is worse ….. saying that most store are mediocre or buying Taiwanese fried chicken from a Chinese northerner store … 🤷🏻♀️
@9:30 She guesses you are Chinese I guess as she started out in Chinese. 你真的是中國人嗎？😜
shinichi... it's not a jin doi, it's a ham sui gok [fried glutinous rice dumplings (鹹水角)]
Would LOVE to see you guys again, it's been years. I'd meet you in Yokohama or you an come south of there to the beach nearby us. PM me if you want to meet up on my Insta!!
