FUKUOKA, JAPAN - During my trip to Kyushu island in Japan, we took the high speed Shinkansen train from Fukuoka to Kagoshima. Along with having one of the world’s best high speed railroad systems, Japan also has it down when it comes to the food!
In all train stations throughout Japan, you’ll find bentos, or neatly decorated food boxes that are available and ready to eat. It’s a big part of the railroad traveling culture to grab a bento or three, and eat them on your train ride. I bought a few and tried to get some of the bentos offering local Japanese food from Fukuoka.
The one hour high speed train ride was almost not enough time to sit back and eat everything - I wanted another hour on the train. Nevertheless, Japan really does have traveling on the train down to an art - the speed, the efficiency, the comfort, and of course Japanese food!

I just came back from Chiba, Japan. Japan is the most cleanest country. Japanese are nice and quiet. They are very obey. You won't see them eat or drink while they are walking. They won't jump in front of you when you are standing in the line. I love this country so much. I wish I could go to Japan more often. Too bad, I don't speak Japanese. I should learn the language so I can enjoy more because a lot of Japanese don't speak English but they can read Chinese.

Samurais never get extinted, they simply migrate to the kitchen. Now they use their spades to cut meat and vegetables. This chefs are real world Samurais and they use all their skills and discipline when the time to cook is on, they also apply all their Zen Budism knowlegde and techniques in all areas. Japan is simply magical, like they are from another world. A big thanks to you Mark, for helping all of us to know about this wonderfull things that often are hidden from most of us.

[@selinaBARMAR2565]

Japan his it's organized way of packing things which I do love to experience with their foods and items in general. I love the BENTO boxes!

[@Dorrie519]

Mark, never knew what a bento box was until I watched you. It looks like a gift, so pretty!!

[@jondowee]

Speechless. What lovely food. Thanks for taking us on your exceptional adventure!

[@jannedrumsit]

One of my favorite things to do in Japan is eating in a bullet train. It makes me feel like I am on a field trip.

[@romellologan6036]

Bullet train food is 🗑️

[@Sonasic]

i think it is overrated with small portions. Also 18 euros for this little amount of food..........As a tourist i think i would have saved the money for a real shop.

[@MarkAbroad]

Cool to hear that, yah it is always fun!

[@jaeboogie2786]

One day I pray to go all over Japan via bullet train. But I just fear the language barrier and getting soooo lost. I would be in extreme panic mode the full trip without a trusted and knowledgeable person to be with at all times. SMH I'm always holding myself back.

I want to eat a true bento from Japan so bad....maybe one day I can travel there

[@Pduarte79]

Where you live, don't you have a similar thing?

[@Princeofgryphondell]

I love Mark Wiens, but I know for a fact, Japanese mostly prefer silence and quietness when riding their subways/trains. I’ve ridden the Shinkansen before in Japan and that was my impression…

[@yuut01234]

Not an opinion. I'm Japanese and it is an etiquette and a good manner to observe where on train. Also there are important train announcements people could miss when you're constantly talking on camera... He's a foreigner but he should have done a research if it's fine to record in shinkansen.

[@LLAGor1lla]

I work for a Japanese company amd have ridden the Shinkansen many times from Hiroshima to Tokyo. You are correct, it is assumed a very quiet ride by all

[@alittleofeverything4190]

That's all I could think about during this video.

[@alfseca]

Didn't sound like he was talking too loudly on the train, Mark was doing his job and being respectful

[@forteandblues]

I understand cultures can be different and different things can be rude in different countries. But In my own personal opinion Japanese people can be overly uptight about many things, and even strait up judgmental about things like weight. It’s going to harm their tourism industry, I know because I’ve always wanted to travel to Japan because of its amazing culture (and food). But upon researching more I found that I would actually have a much happier time in South Korea or even Taiwan.

[@uctube5502]

I hope Mika appreciates how a great father he has.... my father took me a trainstation bought a bento box and went to kiyoto i am still here in lima

[@foodinjapan2256]

I'm so glad to see you enjoy travel in Japan!!! How was Shikansen (Bullet Train)? Was it comfortable enough? We usually call Bento on the train is EKIBEN. It's typical style Benton compare to other Bento we can have from convenience stores. Any way, Enjoy and safe your trip👍

[@spang9782]

At 8:52, that was konnyakku, made from the konjac root. Supposedly a really nutritious food that has no calories! Like tofu, it takes the flavor of whatever it is prepared with. Acorn jelly is a Korean dish.

[@JapanInsiderSecrets]

Called Devil's tongue in English (though no one actually uses that so konnyakku is better lol).

[@dashamunch]

id prolly eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner there 🤤

[@bgabb9110]

Just returned from Japan. I love that they put pride in whatever they do. Can’t wait to visit again. Thank you for all you do, been a follower for years.

[@mikepette4422]

one thing I've learned from marks videos this month is that japan has surprisingly reasonable food prices both restaurant and vending compared to my country canada. we're being overwhelmed by food costs grocery and restaurant wow that bento box ! its like its from a fantasy all the colours...

[@SpiritsAndDemons]

Oh my thoughts too. Canada here. 🇨🇦 Yet people still want to come here, a d I want to leave. The food in Japan looks so much better and prices wow. I could sell my house for over a million, move to Thailand or Japan and live like a king for the rest of my life. 😶

[@OnlySaikon]

I know right. If I wanted a drink like that here in Australia you're looking at probably $5 - $6. A sandwich between $6 - $7, a packet of small chips easily $4

[@SpiritsAndDemons]

@@OnlySaikon The average cost of a sub sandwich in Ontario Canada is between $12 and $25! 😶

I bought the one that was in the shop, it was the 16 courses, so they were in smaller squares than yours. i went for it because i wanted something different, it looked so colourful i couldnt resist. And i was surprised how delicious every bite was. Im going to Japan again in a couple weeks, so excited!!

[@brandywilson8933]

I used to watch your videos all the time but as of late I have not but I think I'm going to start watching again this video is awesome

[@stpatrickschoir]

Ekiben! Such beautiful bento boxes for your train ride!

[@Tarutar]

As someone who lived in Japan, the harsh reality that some KZbinrs make you think it's not is that these ekiben boxes are just ok in general, nothing mind blowing. Even in this video you can see that Mark didn't have his famous 'oh this is amazing' reaction faces. They are good enough for when you didn't have time to eat before, but cold food made half a day prior, being eaten in a small, uncomfortable table in a moving train it will never be as good as a fresh served dish from a good restaurant. They definitely look better than they taste.

[@TRISHYXX]

I don't think you need to live in japan to notice it, seems obvious that the boxes are just ok and only good for if you're hungry and have no other options until you get to your destination, kinda like airplane food. Not many of the videos I've watched say they're really good, always just "good enough"

[@meelvis939]

They are equivalent to the snacks that are sold at AM/PM. 😆

[@chickenfeet9304]

Agree

[@GeckoOnTheWall]

Hang on.. your obviously not from the uk because if all your use to on the train is a dry curled up cheese sandwich that you paid £5 for, those Bentos look like ambrosia of the gods 😹

[@earthlytable]

This looks amazing to me. And I love eating on a train so everything tastes better to me. Different experience than going to a restaurant

There are a lot of and various Ekiben in the shops in a big station. Everyone eat them in train during a long travel. Nobody say complaint to person eating Ekiben in train. Price is 7-15 dollar generally.
