    Ok guise: this is one of our favourite meals ever. We went to Kobe Japan to try Kobe beef, which you've probably never had, because it's not exported. And, really, it's the best meat we've ever had. THE BEST! You ready to drool?

    Does anyone get that satisfaction when the chef cuts through the Kobe Beef while it is cooking

    I think there's a legend that says Kobe Bryant's parents visited Kobe, Japan and fell in love with the meat so much that they named their son after him.
    I'm sure the legend goes that Bryant's mother was pregnant with him at the time while she ate Kobe beef and that is what made him into a legendary basketball player...
    But I could be lying.
    But that makes total sense, right?

    • @maryprom15es
      @maryprom15es 10 ปีที่แล้ว +43

      FROM KOBE BRYANT'S WIKI PAGE: "His parents named him after the famous beef of Kobe, Japan, which they saw on a restaurant menu."

      Wow, I checked you're totally right! Kobe Bryant was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title too and I was wondering if he was somehow connected to it! How satisfying :)

      @matokidoki 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Yup that's it. That's the confirmation that this is a Godly beef. If Kobe's parents named him after it, then it must be legendary.

    I worked at a small Japanese restaurant in Northern California for a few years and every Sunday after closing, (Sunday was our Friday), the owner would give us about $300 worth of ingredients for a special dinner and allowed us to cook it however we wanted. One night, after we had an extremely successful week he got us Kobe beef. Words simply cannot describe how delicious it was.

    I went on a student exchange program to Japan back in 2009 and lived in Kobe for 3 months.. I'm lucky to say I actually had Kobe beef and Simon and Martina are definitely not exaggerating when they say it is the best beef they've ever had.. It's really expensive as well but really worth the experience.

    Kobe beef is Wagyu (Japanese Beef), more specifically it's beef from Kobe. US has an American Kobe Beef, which is a cross breed of wagyu and angus. Major difference is also the treatment of the cattle (movement and diet). Australia also had cattle imported from Japan to start their own kobe style beef program.
    Dietary differences make a huge difference in the fat content of the beef. Marbling is more intense in Wagyu and the make up of the fat is completely different. Body temperature is enough to melt the fat on the surface of any of the Japanese Wagyu.
    Its hard to pinpoint which region produces the best Wagyu since like wine, weather and other factors do change the end results. Japan holds a wagyu olympics that allows farmers from all regions that raise wagyu to bring in cattle to get graded and win the title. From what I understand grading for cattle is based on how much of a certain part a cattle produces from a meat segment to overall body ratio as well as fat content/marbling.

    So this is from a restaurant called Kobegyu Steak land. it's their lunch special which costs 24.99 usd. You get i think around 10 pieces of sliced kobe, salad, miso soup, rice and orange juice/coffee. I thought Kobe beef was the best until I actually tried some other places in japan and discovered that there's also Ohmi and Matsusaka beef which absolutely trump kobe beef. So if you're ever in Japan try looking for those too! Btw kobe, ohmi, and matsusaka are known as Sandai Wagyu (3 kings of beef) in Japan! XD

    I live in Houston Texas, and I have had Kobe beef, it is amazing and will melt in your mouth. but it is crazy expensive, like a 4 oz steak is about 15 dollars, and for Texas, where we have ranches and such every where that's crazy. but it's worth it, Martina was crying, that's a normal and understandable response.

  • @mizzonno

    Hello Lady and Gent,
    Thank you for video. I traveled to Japan just this past week and this past Sunday traveled to Kobe to visit a dear friend. I told her after watching your video weeks ago that I wanted to try it. I left her to decide the place and to my surprise the restaurant looked familiar. So I whipped out my phone and brought up the video and low and behold I was sitting in the exact spot in the exact restaurant as you guys in the video. I honestly was dying laughing at the coincidence.
    Love you people. Love your work. Thanks for posting this video because it was the spark that ended a great day!

  • @OCSleazy

    Japanese Food Vacation Bucket list:
    1. Tonkatsu Ramen all day every day
    2. Kobe Beef, minimum three visits.
    3. Jiro Sushi and the spot EYK visited, once.
    4. Unrelated: See how many times I have to yell "Oohhhhh you so nasty" til a girl in cosplay will go on a date with me.

    • @eatyourkimchi
      @eatyourkimchi  10 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      That ramen, man. I barely ate it for the last trip, but I still loved it deeply. Also, you forgot CocoCurry for your bucket list. Must eat three times, a day every day.

    • @OCSleazy
      @OCSleazy 10 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You dont understand how jelly jelly i am that you guys live next to japan. i seriously hunt all over SoCal for the best ramen, none seems to match the flavor profile since when the ramen masters from japan briefly visited for a festival. BTW no doubt i will visit cocoCurry, i'm gonna use Martina's trick and take some back in my luggage. Better yet, take a quick cooking class over there before i leave. "You can feed a man a good bowl of curry, but teach him to make good curry and he will never go hungry again"- I think its from a religious text or something. I'm pretty sure it is.
      Well anyways, EYK and everyone else have a good rest of your day. Back to studying...@#$%!

    I have a tragic story. Because my parents prayed to a certain deity for health and prosperity for me when I was a child, I couldn't eat beef until I prayed to the same deity again when I was in Japan, asking for permission to break the fast. Thus, the first piece of beef I ever ate was Kobe beef, but because I had no prior beef experience, I could not compare the taste to anything. So... That's just great

They stopped thinking long time ago, that's why there are no muslim noblists etc. their religion brainwashes them just to take over the world and makes them talk about that bullshit at every place possible just to spread the message. Don't poison other people lifes, we don't need your fucking islam everywhere. Why doesn't every christian or buddhist talk about their faith anywhere? It's only islam that's so loud!
