Some people might be jealous, but I'm definitely stoked for you... you deserve it for always providing us with top notch free content. Hope you enjoy Japan
When it comes to food, Japanese carriers and Air France are on another level. Some would argue they are not always the best, but they are always trying something new. Really turning the journey into a culinary experiment/expirience
@@walkrwalkr3622bruh comparing Singapore airlines with Japan airlines and Air France is like comparing a mansion and a bungalow Singapore airlines is in Its own separate tier 🎉
You're one of the reasons I decided to start a channel, Guga. Been following you for a few years now. Love the come up! I hope to figure out a process as good as yours some day.
I was just talking to my twin sister about Japan. We were talking about how life changing the country is. It’s such an amazing place. I miss it, and can’t wait to go back in November.
My Japan trip is one of the most enjoyable things I've ever done and would go back again without question. As I'm sure you will have experienced, knowing Japanese isn't absolutely necessary, but it does help.
"I could barely move around" while he's still in business class. This guy 😂 I'm glad you were able to visit Japan, absolutely well deserved trip for you.
I mean it depends if it's a short or long haul flight. Short haul business class is just a little extra leg room, the experience being similar to economy. A long haul business class would be more comparable to the long haul first class to Japan shown.
@@mackassef473 lol ok whatever you say. your the expert. weeb ass. it's not like rice is the staple of japanese cuisine, the meaning of the word sushi, and served with 94% of japanese meals so that the small amount of real food goes longer in your stomach with the rice. I just made that up. you definitely can't look that up and then find video evidence on youtube with only a couple searches. japanese people consume 8 times the amount of rice as Americans, so yeah you might be right.
@@mackassef473 if you live in a place where it's rude to not have a bowl of rice with your meal, your in the wrong place, and your in japan, the land of decreasing population due to high levels of SOY
Important thing to remember when eating food in an airplane, food often tastes different and food can seem not as juicy as on the ground, because your mouth, nasal passages and sinuses are dryer. This dryness is caused by the climate inside of the airplane, it's important to bear this in mind when eating airline food as it is essentially another handicap that they face when catering for customers. Big fan, I look forward to enjoying watching the rest of the content from this series.
Would encourage you to try Singapore Airlines first class. I was amazed that they actually give you a whole room and a separate bed. Couples can even have a bigger bed to share.
Looking forward to this series. I moved to Japan earlier this year but enjoy seeing others first impressions of it, especially from my favorite food TH-camr!
CANNOT WAIT For this content in Japan. You are going to learn so much and it will make you a better chef. Absorb and enjoy all the surroundings. Japan in on my bucket list for sure.
My family flew JAL Business Class to Japan in 2019. I'm 6'2" so having that lay flat seat was amazing. And so much food! Get on the plane, get offered orange juice or champagne. Take off and then the menu comes out for "lunch", same Japanese or Western menu option and I chose the Japanese menu. I got a Japanese whiskey later on, took a nap for a few hours. When I got up I had the JAL curry rice and fell asleep for a couple hours more before landing.
I can't wait! I miss Japan so, so much. I lived there for 2 years. Best experience of my life. I get homesick for it. I hope you love it as much as I did. I never should have left.
It’s nice to watch a first class plane video where it’s not just a zoomer who hasn’t worked a day in their life flexing on us. Hope you enjoyed your working holiday and ate some good food in Japan.
My wife and I flew luxury first-class for our honeymoon, same set up with cubicle, bed, and television. This will spoil you - it is simply amazing. Most first-class on domestic flights is really just business-class, with a little more leg room and curtain that divides you from the riff-raff (just kidding - we normally fly coach).
I have watched this video 5 times (this being my 5th) because the food and and first class just looks so good. I also have food allergies and couldn't have anything besides probably one dish in this entire video. People that can eat anything, enjoy it, and enjoy life in general, because to me everyone that doesn't have any food allergies is very lucky.
***UPVOTE IF YOU AGREE*** Uncle Guga! Its about time you bring Auntie into the fold every once in awhile! I think im speaking for the whole community when saying that we would love to see how your family reacts to your food or how much you all are enjoying these trips lately. I may be wrong in saying the whole community, but I do know an 8year old superfan who brings it up every time you mention Mrs. Guga or the kids. She says stuff like "I wish we could have seen his family's reaction too!" Every time they raid the food before a taste test and anytime you're on a trip.
@AcidJurassic if thats how she feels then there is nothing wrong with that and I completely respect that choice. But we don't know if that's the case or what. That type of caution is more common when it involves a political/adult oriented channel because of the inherant dangers involved. but it's usually a shy factor when it comes to the more wholesome/family oriented channels, atleast from what I've seen over the years.
@AcidJurassic I would also like to note that I've only seen 1 video with a lady doing the taste test. It's something that my daughter has pointed out before, that she would like to see how gugas girl family member like the food quite a few times. Heck even my mom has expressed a curiosity about his wife's opinions on his cooking and about what/if she cooks for them normally. His sons have been in a few episodes already and my 5 year old loved that.
@thepolishredneck3941 you know she is probably a chancleta master. Some of the "uhhh ohhhh" looks he has, like in the sea bass episode, give it away lol
Visiting Japan is also my dream. And I hope I can go first class too to try all that food although I would not expect much from a plane kitchen. Can’t wait to see the rest of the videos. Congrats on the success and I hope one day I can meet you so I can learn a few grilling tricks from you!
Airplanes are extremely dry which makes you taste buds stop working so they have to add extra salt and sugar so you can taste stuff. Natural humidity ranges from 30-50% humidity Planes are between 5-10% humidity. Also the elevation makes your taste buds with differently
Your expression tasting the Shitaki for the first time matched mine. I first had them in Melbourne at a fusion restaurant, they were paired with duck and it was a match made in heaven!
If you are still in Japan, take a trip to Korea as well. Try the hanwoo beef there. There are different grades like wagyu. But you can only find hanwoo in Korea as they don't export it.
Happy to see you go to Japan! I spent 3 months there earlier this year and it was not enough so I am going back for another two months in September! It's an amazing country so I am happy you get to live your dream and do all this cool stuff in Japan!
congrats on flying japan airlines. one of the best first class out there in my opinion. im glad you went with the japanese menu. I usually always order that!
A few months ago we flew to Korea in business class, it was amazing to lay down and sleep, and the food was great. I wish I could afford that every trip.
Me and my friend are going to Japan in 2 months, making our dreams come true, looking forward to it.. so these videos are gonna be really helpful :) Although we went with economic class :D
Great to see you traveling first class. I'd love to see what GugaTravels has to offer next. Maybe a cruise ship buffet or a Las Vegas buffet of a lifetime. ❤ I enjoy watching you travel and eat good food ❤🎉 .
The reason why certain food wasn't seasoned as well as you would expect and why there was no soy sauce was because these menus have been designed to reduce jet lag as much as possible. Dehydration is a big contributor to jet lag, so they try to reduce the amount of sodium as much as possible without ruining the experience - obviously some items like caviar or are unavoidable. I've always wondered why they even bother with steaks on airlines though, they're much better off with slow cooked or braised meat. You would at least expect them to pick a cut that would handle being reheated and still hold up - like a rib eye or bone in sirloin.
For ppl who don’t like mushrooms, if you ever get a ace to eat the mushrooms he did PLEASE try it. It still kinda tastes like mushroom but it’s somehow better idk how to explain it(btw I can’t stand mushrooms like I hate them so much)
Guga, love your videos, but for these travel vlogs, I like it when it's just you in the environment rather than cutting back to your kitchen set talking - it just takes you out of the experience in my opinion. I think you in your natural element in Japan works great.
Congrats on truly making it Guga. When you start making videos about visiting other countries, but its a cooking channel, you know you made it.
except it's mexico or canada
Skrink skrank srkook skirggle
Guga deserves every bit of it.
Fcyx
@@imeegrande?
Some people might be jealous, but I'm definitely stoked for you... you deserve it for always providing us with top notch free content. Hope you enjoy Japan
If they jealous they gotta go get it themself just like guga did with food or not
Yeah i second that. Guga spends alot of money buying premium cut of steaks for us to see albeit cannot taste. Haha.
Well said

Try Singapore airlines they are on another level as well.

I mean some business classes can still be pretty tight depending on how big you are lol. And Guga is a pretty broad shouldered guy. I can relate.
Can't wait for this series.
I just came back from Japan.
The food is absolutely fantastic.
isn't it just small bits of food with lots of rice? like for real, it is.
@@baplotnikwhere tf did u eat in Japan lmfao it's not even close to that.

Love you Guga during a low point in my life your videos actually brought me joy so proud to see and watch your success thank you so much
you deserved this so much it was a long journey but you did it
You make so many people happy. Enjoy!
Exactly... when everything is paid for!!!
Congrats you deserve it for everything you’ve done for us thanks for the content
Nice how you bring entertainment and travel guides with your experiences and skills, keep it up!
Bread is something we can all love. Vegetarians, vegans, black, white, Muslim, Buddhist, etc... bread and all carbs to be honest are just amazing.
Lived in Okinawa for 5 years, numerous trips to mainland Japan…the food, culture and people are the best

Who else had no idea guga was married
Thought he was gay tbh 😂
Where’s his wife? He just by himself 😂
Doesn’t SHIW his wife in vid she only chooses his food…😅
@@KP-05cuz he likes meat?
He’s mentioned kids many times on his channel

Drink, eat, sleep, repeat... I'd love that too, lucky you 😂
As someone who came to realize this year what it feels like to make childhood dreams a reality, I'm very happy you got to take this trip.
What did you get to experience?
@@csquared4538 My very first novel was published. :) It is an amazing feeling, let me tell you
I'm glad that guga is finally going to japan, his dream country and we are all here to see him experience it Great Video By the way.
I can't wait! I miss Japan so, so much. I lived there for 2 years. Best experience of my life. I get homesick for it. I hope you love it as much as I did. I never should have left.
We live our food dreams via you in reality, i think everyone will agree, so this is a well deserved thankyou from all of us ❤❤❤
It’s nice to watch a first class plane video where it’s not just a zoomer who hasn’t worked a day in their life flexing on us. Hope you enjoyed your working holiday and ate some good food in Japan.
Proud of guga been with you when you were at 300k glad to see your success
This trip is gonna be the best. Food exploration at its finest. Look forward to it all 😊❤😊
@Guga needs to make the whole Japanese menu from that flight.
I’m so hyped for gugas Japan videos
0:20 The guy in the background is just giving the slightly concerned but curious stare.
I used to watched you from the start when you did only sous vide in a small office looking space. Congrats brother, you’re an inspiration
You deserve it Guga! You worked hard to get there bud!
I'm so jealous. Can't wait to see more of your Japan vacation.
Awesome Guga! Maybe you can start traveling all over trying international cuisines made locally.
So many good memories of JAL first over the years glad you got to try it out.
Guga style is the only way to fly ❤
Thanks for doing the flight review. It completes your food and travel video, keep the great videos going.
Amaizing vid Guga. God bless . Sigue metiendole. The best!!!!
Amazing to see your growth over the past few years Guga, Congratulation on your progress well deserved :)
Nice to see you and the Mrs enjoying First Class. Hope you get to see Kimono Mom and Sutan in Japan. Would love to see a collab with them.

Lol true Guga fashion, "We're going to order EVERYTHING" I love it! Congrats broski and as always thank you for making such a cool video! Love ya man!

Some day, I might be able to do something simular, really looking forward to seeing what you've done in Japan!
The air lines thinking they are in profit
Guga comes here and eats the whole food stock
Omg guga that is sooo good I have never tasted first class food. Nick and Guga are the bestest chefs in the world!!!!??

Wow Guga! So proud! Awesome video, as always! Enjoyed watching your flight experience. :) Stay Blessed!
Hell yeah can't wait to see what's next!!!
I love Japan and their food, and tradition!
Guga sleeping in his pjs was so sweet!
Happy to see you go to Japan! I spent 3 months there earlier this year and it was not enough so I am going back for another two months in September! It's an amazing country so I am happy you get to live your dream and do all this cool stuff in Japan!
congrats on flying japan airlines. one of the best first class out there in my opinion. im glad you went with the japanese menu. I usually always order that!
Caramelize a sliced onion and sliced shiitakes in a liberal amount of butter with some thyme, then deglaze with a few good slugs of balsamic vinegar.
I would watch Guga do honest, surprising and not overexaggerated food reviews all day long, You have natural whit!!!
I'm looking forward to seeing Japan along with you Guga and of course your wife as well!✌😁
Good for you bro, glad you enjoyed
Japan series is going to be so cool !
A few months ago we flew to Korea in business class, it was amazing to lay down and sleep, and the food was great. I wish I could afford that every trip.
This video just reminds me how hard my life is and how I'll never be this lucky no matter how much I work.
i want to go to japan too!
i hope someday you visit indonesia
Me and my friend are going to Japan in 2 months, making our dreams come true, looking forward to it.. so these videos are gonna be really helpful :) Although we went with economic class :D
and I thought I was in luxury when I sat on the window
there is a rumor that this Airline went bankrupt after serving ALL that food to Guga
Awesome video Guga...
Big fan from Brunei 🇧🇳
Great to see you traveling first class. I'd love to see what GugaTravels has to offer next. Maybe a cruise ship buffet or a Las Vegas buffet of a lifetime. ❤ I enjoy watching you travel and eat good food ❤🎉 .
When on an airplane. Ginger Ale always!
I don't care what class you are in, something to calm the stomach is golden.
Great video, such interesting dishes! Looking forward to your vlog on Japan, it will be marvellous!
Congrats Guga proud of you man 🙏🏽
I'm so excited to see what you guys got planned in Japan. Have allways wanted to see you try out their fancy steak resturants
Parabéns guga! Enjoy Japan! Remember, irocumata! 🤗🤣
Just flew this First Class Japan Airlines flight last week. Unbelievable! Enjoy Japan Guga!
its a good day when guga uploads!
Japan is so amazing! Very excited to see your travels there.
Fantastic brilliant video can't wait for the next videos 👍🏻
these guga vids are the best !
We need a new TV series -- Guga Eats the World. Imagine traveling the world to sample the finest food and cooking techniques.

Is a ticket of first class really 25k? Holy shiet!
That MUST be the FIRST GREEN VEGETABLE eaten on this channel!

While the steak did look quite dry, I also feel like Guga has ruined all other steaks for himself given the quality of steaks he makes.
Thank you for flying in japan airlines and we hope to have to again :)
