I like your channel very much, besides excellent information provided it is also entertaining. I will visit Tokyo in April 2019 and kindly wanted to ask if you may can recommend a good place to eat Wagyu Beef.
Paolo, not gonna lie I used to get overwhelmed by your unrelenting enthusiasm, but it's exactly what I need in my life right now after these unrelenting-ly stressful days at work. Much love.
I love the fact that you're recommending ramen places that's completely different from the more well known ramen places in Japan-that's dare I say overly "reviewed". You rock! Thanks for all your effort. Everything you've recommended I've somehow planned into my japan trip this spring. Cant wait for that RED ramen shop;Tourist friendly and spicy-yum!
I love how you included a vegan option! I was a little worried about going to japan and being vegan but I was able to eat so much ramen and even veggie sushi! And mochi is my favorite 🤤 I love Tokyo!!
Since you are making an English video about living/traveling in Japan, it would be helpful to say how difficult places are for the "language challenged'". For example at 0:42 in the video if you look carefully the ordering machines have English texts.
Dude, love what you're doing, very useful for us foodies who have never been to Japan. I've been following your videos for weeks now. I'll be heading to Tokyo in about a month, Hope to bump into you there! Keep it up man!!!
paulo, I really like your videos because you go in depth into each suburb which for a seasoned traveller to Japan, is extremely useful. Hope you make more in the same style and I am looking forward to a Ramen video for other suburbs.
My husband is definitely wanting to try those spicy ramen places. Everything looks fantastic and are definite must visits on our list for when we make it to Japan! Thank you for checking out lesser known places as well!
Hey Paolo, lovely vlog you got there! I hope you can do a video educating people who will visit Japan in the future on how to ramen. Like what kind of broths, noodles and toppings. I admire how you explain things so I am looking forward seeing an episode like that. More power to your vlog! Thanks for sharing informative things about this country.
Paolo: I wanted to take a moment and thank you for the work you've put into these videos. It's helped me flesh out my list of food places and attractions during my 2.5 week stint in Japan in August.
i went to afuri and that vegan Ramen whas phenomenal. i liked it more than any ramen I had (but I only tried one or two during my stay, and not in afuri). still, you really made my trip great and enjoyable Paolo, thank you!
I’m really glad you mentioned kindenmaru at the end because when I went to japan I didn’t know the name of it but this was the only ramen place my friends and I stopped at and it was so good and the staff were so friendly and helpful! I’ll visit it again soon!
aww thanks ! hmm the fried chicken looks like a must and i think i will pass on the vegan haha. But awesome videos!! Ive been so hooked so informative and alot more geniune then others i've seen. keep it up dude :)
I am going at the end of may!! Paolo, your videos are becoming my guide in Tokyo, I wonder if I will have room in my stomach for everything I am planning to eat LOL
Hi Paolo, was a pleasant surprise bumping into you the other day in Shibuya. I went to Afuri today for lunch and it was great. The grilled pork was amazing!! I also had tsukamen at Fuunji which was really nice too. Keep up the good work, love your helpful videos. Happy to see that you are also very nice and friendly in real life too 😊
Paolo you rock buddy, how do you make your videos so much fun but at the same time so revealing and explanatory, people who don’t know Japan should definitely watch them before going there, by the way Happy new year for you and your girlfriend, you guys make such a dynamic duo, many blessings for both of you from the bottom of my heart, God Bless 👍
Just found your channel. I love Japan tourist vlogs and this one is amazing. Thanks for the great content. Wish I found this earlier before my wife and i went!!
I sooo love ramen. And this makes me want to eat now. Thanks for this video. Will be going to Japan at the end of April, and will hunt these ramen restos. Hehe.
Hey Paolo. Just a quick thank you for all your videos. I am in Japan for the first time right now and I watched lots of videos for recommendations on all sorts of things to do to make the most out of my two weeks in Tokyo and Osaka. And your videos are definitely very helpful.And fun to watch! Thanks :)
Tested! Two days ago we were in shibuya, drinking a beer and thinking what to eat. I've remembered this video and we finished with a big bowl of ramen at kindenmaru... soooooo gooooood!
Why i always hungry every watching your video? Thank you for all recomendation place, it make me really sure to come in japan after this year !!! My new subscriber here yasshhh!!!
Thanks Grover! I don't like everything I try, I just don't really show it on my videos. I'm showing you guys my Top 10 lists, so no point in including stuff I don't like.
#5 place: Interesting ramen menu. Fried chicken in ramen! Miso based bowl looks great! #3 place is good! #2 has amazing price! Hard to find probably! #1 place is really good!
Would love to see the Top 5 of the following categories: Shio, Shoyu, Miso, Tonkotsu, Cheapest, Vegetarian/vegan, Oddest/craziest ingredients, Generally no waiting in line, and last but not least, It's not really ramen (traditional noodles in soup) but the word "ramen" is in the description. hahahaha
another great guide, coming over with my 12 year old at the end of August, he loves Chicken ramen, of the places listed which are the best for chicken ramen and have menu's in English, I'm planning to take some Japanese lessons maybe in March or April but just incase my Japanese is not up to scratch by then.
Thanks for the vids. I'm not vegan but that vegan ramen at Afuri looks delicious. I am so looking to my trip in a few months. Nervous and excited at the same time! I do not know Japanese AT ALL!!! It helps when you list the tourist friendly spots.
You had me at karage ramen. Another great roundup of interests and flavors I am so looking forward to. I also would like to see more and in Shinjuku too! Keep up the good vids for all us dreaming to be there soon (4-1/2 months!!!)...
Stayed around Asakasa for 2days, so didn't really managed to visit the others. I'll prob try the rest next time when I'm back in tokyo. hopefully I get to meet you in person as well! Great job on what you're doing (honest upfront reviews, no BS lip service), Keep those amazeballs videos coming! Can you do one video on Japanese whisky??
I went in November last year. Was definitely a nice ramen and different from all I’ve had due to the yuzu adding freshness. Wouldn’t say it’s amazing though but definitely quite good and different on a good way.
Respect to all these dedicated restaurant employees and owners, Make be a would be fortunate in future and visit Tokyo then I definitely will enjoy the many options of Ramen. Have to admit that I am classic for I knew about Raman by watching Naruto. However, Japan is a resemblance of one of great ancient empire that emerged as a very advanced nation in the modern time.
I really love your videos, so I hit that subscribe button! I'll be staying at Shinjuku in Tokyo in June. Can you also do a video of your favorite ramen shops in shinjuku too? Or are there ramen shops there that you recommend? Are these ramen shops kid friendly?
Your channel is helping me plan my trip to Tokyo/ Osaka Japan in 2018. I'm taking note of your maps and locations to things I want to take my family to see and do especially where to eat ramen, 5 more ramen places please! thank you so much for your uploads and a Happy New Year to you and Maiko from Australia :D :)
Thanks Paolo for the recommendations, so sad the red store closed... really wanted to try spicy ramen as most places have barely any real spicy ramen. Kindenmaru was great but me and my wife’s favourite was definitely Afuri and it’s yuzu broth.... the spicy one was sooooo damn tasty, currently in Osaka but when we go back via Tokyo... that is definitely the one ramen we wanna go back to eat!
Real Hedi From my very limited experience it seems safe to assume that unless it says vegetarian it’ll probably have some form of meat in the broth. Do what I did and use google search/maps to find places with vegetarian ramen, there’s a good few around.
It's called tsukemen if the Noodles were separated from the broth. YOu just dip the noodles on the broth. i really recommend Sigekiya if you are looking for Tsukemen. it is a fish based dipping sauce. th-cam.com/video/gzhOVd9pYkU/w-d-xo.html
Just went to this place because of your recommendation, my friend got one and it was to spicy for her so we switched.. and I loved it! It was a weird one with cheese, butter and garlic.
You can download the map from my site www.tokyozebra.com/maps
I like your channel very much, besides excellent information provided it is also entertaining. I will visit Tokyo in April 2019 and kindly wanted to ask if you may can recommend a good place to eat Wagyu Beef.
Can you make a video of halal places to visit in Tokyo and Osaka? I know a lot of places have pork and meat broth x
That’s not the hottest ramen in Tokyo you need to try Devil Level way more than that!

Paolo, not gonna lie I used to get overwhelmed by your unrelenting enthusiasm, but it's exactly what I need in my life right now after these unrelenting-ly stressful days at work. Much love.
Same I used to think he was on crack but now I got used to

Thanks for all your effort. Everything you've recommended I've somehow planned into my japan trip this spring. Cant wait for that RED ramen shop;Tourist friendly and spicy-yum!
Thanks Angel. I really wanted to highlight shops that I love and that don't get a lot of attention. Let me know if you try the M Challenge at RED.
THAT cute ramen guy in 7:38 hahaha
ORERYU IS OUT OF THIS FREAKING WORLD. ITS SO GOOD AND THE KARAGEE IS INSANELY GOOD
Miko is just adorable😍
I love how you included a vegan option! I was a little worried about going to japan and being vegan but I was able to eat so much ramen and even veggie sushi! And mochi is my favorite 🤤 I love Tokyo!!

Thanks Rowing Boat! The other ramen videos are on their way. Unfortunately, I can only eat one ramen bowl a day...
3:19 chill bro we don’t want you to die we will still love you you don’t have to do this

I have been waiting to go to Kindenmaru Ramen for a year now. I finally made it to Japan! It was amazing, thanks Paolo & Meiko!
Hey bro! You gotta come home to the Philippines and try the ramen here! Of course nothing beats Japan, but the ramen game here is now pretty intense!
ラーメン 麺の種類は細麺 ちぢれ麺
卵とか混ぜ込んだ タマゴ麺とか
ありますねぇ💔💔💔
スープと良く絡むちぢれ麺が
好き(笑)🌻🌻🌻

I'm a master procrastinator so the thanks is all to you and your super pretty girlfriend !!! ^.^=

ok i missed a lot of the ramen shops but i loved Oreryu Shio Ramen. Special Ramen spicey/creamy was a blast.
Was waiting for surprise😀😀
Love it! Would you consider adding some more Vegan options in your other videos?
When you go to Japan and look for a good ramen shop, "the ramen database"(らーめんデータベース) is certainly a good resource!
I really love your videos, so I hit that subscribe button! I'll be staying at Shinjuku in Tokyo in June. Can you also do a video of your favorite ramen shops in shinjuku too? Or are there ramen shops there that you recommend? Are these ramen shops kid friendly?
Please do the same one for Shinjuku 🙏
Will do! thanks for the comment.
You're welcome. I'm going to Japan for the first time at the end of this month. Your videos are helping me plan the trip 🙌
Some of the Shinjuku shops I’m interested in are Menya Musashi, Ichiran, and Tonchin 🍜
I like that you draw maps :D!
Thanks Emilie. Maiko helps me with the maps.
Tried Kindenmaru on our visit a week ago and we can say we’ve had one of the best ramen in Tokyo! Thanks for your recommendation! 👍🏼
Awesome! Glad you found the video useful cfghen!

Love Ramen man! Thanks for introducing !!!
This made me hungry and crave ramen soooo bad !!!
Thanks Paolo for the recommendations, so sad the red store closed... really wanted to try spicy ramen as most places have barely any real spicy ramen.
Kindenmaru was great but me and my wife’s favourite was definitely Afuri and it’s yuzu broth.... the spicy one was sooooo damn tasty, currently in Osaka but when we go back via Tokyo... that is definitely the one ramen we wanna go back to eat!
Nice. Glad you found something worth coming back to.
You make me laugh when you eat😂😂 you can tell that you are really enjoying your food, thumbs up👍👍👍🎀
We went Kindenmaru last night and it was AMAZING- Thank you for the recommendation!!!!!
Awesome! Glad you were able to check that ramen shop out Kyoung Nakagawa!

Happy New Year Poe! Awesome, only 60 more days and you get to try all this stuff.
Did I order Ramen right after this video..yes I did.

Will be visiting Japan in 2020 ☺
LightJapanz Pug well, as long as youll visit Japan
Winter Olympics 2020 will be in Tokyo haha
Mirai Kinji lol same im going for school
I'm also planning on going in 2020, it's a goal I've set for my self, hope to see you there
Me too 😊
Are there almost all ramen in Japan full of pork and pork broth ?? Can you order without pork broth ?
Real Hedi From my very limited experience it seems safe to assume that unless it says vegetarian it’ll probably have some form of meat in the broth. Do what I did and use google search/maps to find places with vegetarian ramen, there’s a good few around.
It's called tsukemen if the Noodles were separated from the broth. YOu just dip the noodles on the broth. i really recommend Sigekiya if you are looking for Tsukemen. it is a fish based dipping sauce. th-cam.com/video/gzhOVd9pYkU/w-d-xo.html
Is there any restaurant that offers pork free ramen?
I really like Asuka in Shibuya. Really delicious and had a nice little bit of spice!
Just found you, love this channel
Awesome! Glad you found the channel too.
Lol they way you go "mmmmmmm" 😂 I will forever think of you doing that when i take a good bite of food!
Just went to this place because of your recommendation, my friend got one and it was to spicy for her so we switched.. and I loved it! It was a weird one with cheese, butter and garlic.
awesome! Glad you found the place. It's soooooo goood.
Paolo fromTOKYO well thats why i love that you Google maps the places! And then we just read the kanji and saw if it was the same c:
