so in this video

I'm gonna share with you guys what it's like get a tattoo friendly onsen hotel just about an hour away from Tokyo

So today we're hitting up Atami Onsen less than one hour away from Tokyo and about 40 minutes from Shinagawa station

Which makes it an ultra popular spot for locals to visit for the weekend to enjoy a relaxing

Ryokan onsen experience in front of Atami station is an onsen guide where many souvenir shops and restaurants are gathered

You'll find many seafood products and food specialties, like Onsen Manju so many unique Atami treats

So make sure to try them out when you're here. Oh, and Atami beaches within walking distance

So this area gets even more popular during the summer months compared to like now winter

but I'm good with quiet at least once in a while and this is where we're spending the weekend hotel Kan-Ichi that building is

A bit older but the inside is renovated. So it's fairly nice and clean

I chose this hotel because their public owns and baths are tattoo friendly and they also have private onsen baths that you can reserve

however

the hotel asked guests with tattoos to be

Respectful and try to use the bath during less busy hours if possible as some locals still get scared of tattoos

especially the older ones so I'm kind of excited to show you guys but before we start

This is the second bedroom that I was talking about perfect for families or if you here with another couple

It's actually pretty spacious for Japanese standards

And that brings me back to where we started I guess the only thing left to do let's check out the onsen

Well not the only thing left to do because we have to also eat

You look like a ninja turtle

If you are in ninja turtle, which Ninja Turtle would you be oh what's available?

I think I'm more like oh

I feel just like the guy that he is he is the red guy the guy with his size

I was also thought of as Donatello cuz I thought I was a little bit smart, but

It's like we're on the rooftop do ya feel like we're like literally on the rooftop right now

It's how Michaels already got into the horns in bath

This is nice because we have it all car itself and just beyond er, you can actually see that motion

It's kind of too dark today

But if you come here during the day, then you can definitely see the ocean from here

You just kind of like perfect

It's kind of like a nice of couples retreat and get away from Tokyo and you just like have a private onsen back

Alright looks like the food is ready Michael's already at the table taking a few pictures, but

Now as Michael would like to say tonight seeds

I

Love how they have all of these little appetizers

We have some Evie

Some agudo some boonie even get some says I like that and you can pull this

And if you get it, right you get the whole entire

while the meat from the shell

Mmm, it has kind of like a bitter

Rubbery, I don't I kind of like a tough texture but also kind of chewy at the same time. Try this sashimi dip it in

Mmm, that's some fresh you mean you have this little like

Translucent layer of skin and there's like a thin lead piece of like daikon right there

Mm-hmm. It's nice and fluffy. I like that

And the dashi is nice too

Well, let me taste this Nico this and they've been cooking

So it might be a little bit overcooked you guys talking just a little bit too much just now

Let's see

You taste like the hat that was the marble inside of them meat itself, it is quite fatty

So I think Michael probably wouldn't like it so much, but I kind of like it

I like how she's separating the fish for us. So this is the key made I Wow

And as I go show you base

The soup itself is a little bit sweet

It's kind of made out of like to show you and they've added a little bit of sugar to it

You can taste that a mummy

Yeah, it's kind of like a nice sweet show you base awesome. And then the rice even comes with kombu. Oh

It smells really strong

This is like the equivalent to putting soy sauce in the rice

No, cuz he gives it flavor. So Japanese people don't put soy sauce on the rice, you know

You may or may not know that growing up in the States

I did that when I was a kid

But you know when I came to Japan it was like what are you doing putting soy sauce on your rice?

Definitely a no-no here in Japan. You're not supposed to color your white rice

Color, that's fine. It's Macumba. It's fine. But like when you're eating you don't like pour stuff on the rice

You just don't do it, but it's okay to here. Oh, it's gonna like hold me thing. So after that big-ass fish comes some more

Fish so this is Sawada

Almost like it's been barbecued we kind of

painted across with like a nice

Sweet glaze and after this dessert comes this is a lot of food for two people

The menu was completely different for dinner than next night

We had shabu shabu a huge sashimi boat and an assortment of Japanese style side dishes. It was delicious

so after dinners finish the lady comes up and cleans your room takes away all the plates and everything and then

Afterwards stop please set up the protons at which he's doing it right now. You can see behind me

That goes on her phone again

For you okay, you want to sleep on the left or the right? Right, right

I think I sleep on inside. Why because I'm gonna wake up and film. Oh,

Oh

Never get about the Japanese

You have these men shoes they never cover the top part why don't you think they ever put the top part they have for that

Reason it's easier to choose the style from

Isn't it feel dirty than on the top? I feel like I don't want to touch it ever

that's

Delicious

Nothing, like waking up in the morning and having breakfast prepared all for you, man

like honestly

this is what I call a Japanese at breakfast has this like all these little bits and pieces of

Zenzai, Japanese culture enriched infused and just I'm good to go this morning. I can look at this

This is called bunker done. It has some not though

It has some wasabi

mangu dough like a minced my little taco on and it even has some

Okuda right there and what you do is you take it you mix it up then all you have to do is get your rice

Get a scoop up done throw it in like that and that is what you call an explosion in your mouth Oh

So most real guns in itami offer hamona which is dried or semi dried fish for breakfast

but at this spot they let you choose which type of kimono

So just had the morning honson

Always good to hydrate afterwards and it's actually pretty decent really really clean. Not the biggest in the world, but still pretty clean

What was nice about it too was that if you do have kids and have like a baby crib there so you can see that

It's like it is geared to be that quite

Family-friendly think well, what my co tells me is that this particular owns and waters like meant to exfoliate your skin

So for those of you who are looking to ex foliate, this could be the perfect

Don't say once my cousin doing her makeup, then I'll take you guys around the tummy kind of show you around

Maybe some cold spots to eat

It's raining though outside. Yeah, I might just stay inside. Yeah, maybe long coats. I didn't show you guys around

So unfortunately it's raining today, so I guess we're just gonna hop in a taxicab let us borrow some umbrellas

What was rice bowl I wanted to go to this spot you don't know if it's that good but let's try

So we decided to go into a fish burger joint known for using fresh itami seafood and a tommy craft beer

It doesn't get more local than that

This I got the Jazz very sadistic craft beer they don't have a lot of it I know

It almost smells like wine

That's good, it's a very fruity raspberry

I could drink a whole lot of it almost tastes like a raspberry drink with like a can of beer

So this place is relatively new around this area, but I wanted to try a patient burger

I got the hot dog a

Megiddo which is like a tuna burger and the brown sauce is actually a sesame that has some sprouts on top

And I some lotus root tomatoes egg and then you have the tuna

Burger and you can actually get like a grilled tuna or I got that putt soggy

Which is kind of like it's like a breaded skin around it the tuna

Oh, that's good Wow, I got to take another flight

You can taste the tomatoes you can taste the egg you got the crunchiness of the tuna

Like it's really well done. The tuna itself is fresh and the egg is just a really really nice. That is a good burger

All right, since it's raining or not gonna go try any more food

But we are at the conbini and i'm gonna get some stuff to eat at home

So we've gone all over goods but as you can see it's raining quite a lot outside

So Michael just called at the taxi pretty much have to call the taxi, and we didn't actually know the number

but we asked the convenience to a lady if we can get the number from her and she gave it to us and

We'll be on her way and I can show you guys some treats

All right

all right, so

We got all the snacks from the combini

first of all while we're trying out all this stuff

Found some itami beers some pale ale and some Pilsner gonna try the pale ale

Huh, that's pretty good not the best beer I've had but not the worst

No, it's like I don't know if I like it or not maybe worth trying if you come here

We got actually a lot of different snacks, and I don't know

Which ones to try one thing that Michael found today was this?

strong potato chips ton ton mint flavor

Oh

Wow

Wow, it's really smells like Chinese herbs and essential like the spiciness. Let's try it

Mm-hmm. It's like your regular

Potato chip with ridges and it also has got Sun show like I'm not a 100% fan of Sun

So just by itself and tastes kind of like that by itself

If you like Sun show then this is kind of it. Like what do you think? I

Wish I was more like Ton Ton mint flavor as the buzzes like it's like the San Jose so overpowering

All right, we're checking out now

I hope you guys liked this video on a tattoo friendly content hotel

Just by Tokyo if you did then hit that like button

But remember there are a lot of ones at hotels in that tummy area if you have tattoos

then you don't want to go to a hotel that doesn't allow you to have a public bath or if that hotel has like the

Reserved doors and baths that that works as well. Otherwise, if you don't have a tattoo then you're good

You can go to any hotel. You want also the food here varies every day

so you get kind of like different options and different looks if you decide to stay longer like Michael and I did instead of just

staying one night

We actually stayed two nights and we can kind of enjoy it aside from that again
