So in the last video we explored all these different gourmet food spots, all throughout Japan and I had so much fun.

Trying it out and introducing it to you. I wanted to do another video and luckily all throughout Japan.

There's many phenomenal restaurants that deliver directly to my door

Which makes staying home that much easier something to note though

This in Japanese is called otoriyose, which means gourmet home delivery. It's not that combini food. It's food

That's high-quality

And it comes at a little bit of a higher price tag

Which is almost like getting caviar delivered to your front door

so before we start if you wanna help support the channel check out to hold my miso merch if you want to see what I'm

Doing on the daily check out my Instagram account. And if you have any questions about Japan check out my discord community

So without further adieu bring on the gourmet goodies

Number one me katsu and tomorrow Sandow from Roman

I didn't have to travel so far because we're staying in Tokyo in Hachioji

So today we're trying the new katsu Sando and at tamago Sandow

so this place is a jazz bar in cafe in hachioji, and it's been around since

1957 and supposedly they make some bomb-ass

Katsu sandwiches as well as egg sandwiches. So first of all, let's open this nakatsu-san dough

So it's funny in Japanese. People say Sando instead of a sandwich cheese

So check out all these layers you can see how thick it is compared to my hand

That is so thick the first thing you notice is how many layers of pork slices you have to go through

It's like a milky sandwich. There's actually loads of fatty pieces in here to just give it just a little bit extra flavor. Damn!

Hmm

That is amazing

It's the way they actually cook it is a take it out of the fryer then they put it into a pan and they cook

It with some sauce with like a so you base and it is delicious the flavorings. It's not too sweet. It's not too salty

It's just like right in the middle

it really accentuates just the meat itself and how its kind of like, um

Probably some mayonnaise in there who doesn't love mayonnaise mayonnaise

Me and white bread with a crust cut off can't get better than that

And so this is the next

sandwich and see it's kind of like mochi mochi and then you just kind of like squishy this egg is oh

That is a straight-up egg, that's a flavorful heck

It's very much like a souffle like egg, you know

I was expecting maybe a thick dense egg because it's just so big but it's nice and light. It's not too salty

It's actually well balanced like you can definitely taste the mayonnaise in there. So I like it. Hmm

Since we're at home, and we can pretty much do whatever we want. This is

now a

Double-decker it's not gonna fall because I am a professional eater. I do this for a living

guys ready for this

Egg in cut this I know what a beast. That's actually pretty delicious. It's hard to fit all in your mouth

But just I have a pretty big mouth. No problem. Number two did in de Chocolat from Cafe Lake Oh collage

Hope that's right. This one is also from Tokyo Kagurazaka, which is also known as petit paris

Meaning that it's a highly competitive area for French restaurants

the shop itself is a popular French cafe here and their specialty 13 de Chocolat this you would almost think

that you are getting like a Medal of Honor coming from this box or maybe kind of like

I thought a watch is nice but a medal of honor like only so many, you know

Like if you do something nice for your country and like you you're very brave, they give you like a medal of honor, okay?

I think I'd rather get a watch

Anyways, it looks like like a premium-grade a top of the food chain top quality

Box, so this here is the chocolate cake to win them all and apparently this cake

Itself was cooked in a convection oven and then it to cook it

They used some steam in order to like preserve which this isn't even a word moist the moist goodness

You're gonna in fact this like center bit right here

It's not supposed to be fully cooked and it's supposed to just be like melting almost

It should be like ganache

Here's a picture right here that they sold on the website. I've cut another piece right there

You can see that it's a little bit more

Melty thick fudgy loveliness right there. Let's take a bite of this centerpiece

Can you eat the one that's already cut?

I wanted a good one Oh, oh

That's so good that is so rich and delicious

It's almost like having like straight punch like a melty fudge creamy day texture of chocolate. There's no cake in here

There's no like fluffy bready textures to it. It's just a straight-up chocolate

It's not that sweet though, but it's like so rich said like it hits the back of your throat. It's so good

I feel guilty for having each and every single bite. This would be good with some coffee or some milk. Hmm

More like one of my favorite chocolate cakes ever

I wanna eat it with vanilla ice cream

We have ice cream sandwiches, let me try it

So this is kind of like the beauty of being at home. You can justify it whatever you want and this combination

Is like Uncle right? All right, let's try this

Oh my god, that's good. I feel like I'm in heaven right now. Can we move on to the next one?

Ooh and save up to 44 dollars using my code Paolo 10 and link in the description that said let's fly over to the next

spot

Three Yamagata you gave from saga Seneca. So I ordered the special meat dish from saga

sandy cool all the way from Yamagata prefecture

So this spot delivers a three?

Beautiful packages of red dye meat thinly sliced so I got this special meat dish from saga

Hey, Nico

The guy uses less marbled meat as they believe that Hammami is best

concentrated in red meat when eating raw before we try it gotta add their special sauce and then as an option one of my personal

Favorite things to do is to top it off with a beautiful

Yellow raw egg yolk. And if you want it's also recommended to use a shredded vegetables like apples or cucumber

Look at that look at all that sauce and the soaked up egg. Yolk, baby. I like it, raw

Baby, I like it raw. Oh

Nobody knows that song

It actually really smells like Korean barbecue

That meat is so tender you definitely taste like a soy sauce base to it

But it's also mixed in I believe with Vicey Korean missile called coach udon

It is delicious. And then just with that egg yolk. It just gives it a nice gooey texture to it

The meat itself is really soft and tender

I wouldn't say that it melts in your mouth, but I don't really have to chew so much

It just kind of goes down really really easily since it is raw you do get a little bit of sashimi

Texture if you like sashimi then you'll definitely like this. In fact, you'll find that this is one of the more popular

Appetizers out of like a Korean barbecue restaurant. I

Know like it was funny because in the last video I also did some raw meat and a lot of you are like yuck

I would never try that. That's

disgusting a lot of people don't realize is that in Japan the quality of meat and fish is really high and

Since it's so high, it's really safe to eat even brah and so a lot of people just saying

Oh, that's discussing or probably coming from the perspective from their country

Like it's really dangerous to eat raw meat but in Japan, it's really safe

And in fact, it's a freaking delicious and just to show you how safe this really is

They even have like a proper

certificate here that shows like how fresh and

Inspected this meat is this is not your fast food place. This is straight up Gor Gor my boom

boom boom boom boom boom

Number four yo, and I gyoza set from PI don't so this next one hits close to home here in Tokyo

It's in de Dabashi area. So this is a Chinese restaurant called pyrin but more than a restaurant

It's more of like an izakaya a drinking restaurant

so people come here have some drinks eat some Chinese food and

Namely gyoza, but truth be told I already had some of this gyoza

He actually ordered it about a week ago and I just couldn't help myself. I had to try it

So this one is gonna be more of a review but I liked it so much that I had to include it in this

So look at these lovely

Morsels right in front of me. Basically, we have four different types. And today I've actually cooked it in two different ways

This one here is the pan-fried style. And this one here is a steamed style and you can see

Or you can smell the goodness on this plate not only are the colors different on the skin

But the ingredients inside each one is different as well

Let me start with one of my favorites and it's actually these black ones right here

This one is the pan-fried one as you can see right there dip it in a little bit of soy sauce

You've actually put some vinegar and some rye. You kind of like a spicy oil.

Wow the oils of the meat are so good

What sets this one apart as you can see that's like a full piece of garlic right there. Mm-hmm. Mmm. Goodness

The meat itself is quite sweet

It does have a little bit of like kind of like a peppery spice to it

But more than anything you can really taste the garlic in here

Not just like if you take a bite and a big piece of garlic

But the meat itself has a very overwhelming garlic taste which for those garlic lovers is a perfect and I love garlic

In fact, it's really different to your kind of say Japanese gyoza, which has got like a thinner skin

This one has kind of a really really thick skin. It's a little bit chewy. It's very mochi mochi. Oh, man

I'm loving this and then we have three more to go

So this one is probably my a second favorite here this red little hitter

I'm gonna actually eat it with some rice this time. But yeah, take a bite of this

Hmm

Yes

And this one is quite interesting also because it almost tastes like it has this red paste to it

Like a very hot spicy red paste in there the more I eat it. It could actually be my favorite one

I'm starting to like this one more and more

It has some red peppers scallions in there to think about some bits of pieces of garlic. It is quite spicy

Maiko was actually pretty surprised when she had this and she said wow, this is really really spicy

I'm like, yeah, I can do it, but I am sweating me so

What was your favorite? Garlic and Cinnamon

Garlic and Cinnamon

Hey, don't tell him okay, since she said it

So this one looks like just your regular gyoza pan-fried hot sticker, but it's actually cinnamon flavor

Hmm, you can see all like the cinnamon powder all up in there

It's almost like a dessert gyoza something you would get at Disneyland kind of like a cinnamon bread, and I've never had

Gyoza before that actually has cinnamon

So it's quite an interesting take on it and the final one the Ninja Turtle gyoza. Which can you guys guess what's inside this one?

So this one here is nieta flavor so you can see it has these little bits of nita very ordinary

But at the same time insanely good what a joy

All right, bring on the next one and number five Kaizen sanshoku dong from guro. No, Yoshi

so this next one we're traveling all the way to a he made which has some of the

freshest fish in the world

the restaurant itself has more than

53 years of history and has more than

22 shops all over the judoka and Shikoku area and the fact that we're able to order the food have it delivered

Directly here makes me just so happy. Look at this a beautiful

Sensation this is called a Sun shokudo meaning three types of fish on a bed of rice

So you get these three packages the Otoro, which is fatty tuna

and then you get this salmon roe which is known as

Kuta and then you get that Looney which is a sea urchin

basically

You get a hundred grams a hundred grams in the sea urchin is 70 grams and it's just a so

much food, like literally I probably recommend to split this up between two people and you know,

We have to start with the fatty. Tuna give this old total just dip it in some soy sauce like that

You can have it in sashimi style if you want. I put it on a bed of rice

Let me just have the rice and look at the head I had the rice is just falling apart

That's brilliant, you can just taste all of the oils coming off that fatty tuna
