This is behind the counter and deep into the kitchen of Paichi, a 90-year old Yoshoku Restaurant, meaning it's a Japanese influenced western cuisine restaurant. Hidden in a back alley, just a few steps from Asakusa's Kaminarimon main street. It’s made a name for it’s self for it’s rich and uniquely Japanese born beef stew served in a hot iron pot. The shop started out as a bar by the current 3rd generation owner's grandfather but later he converted to a Yoshoku restaurant in 1936 well before it became popular in Japan many years later, as a high-end cuisine for the upper-class and fueled by Japan’s economic boom, happening entertainment districts like Asakusa were flooded with these restaurants trying to cash in as dining here became a status symbol. Yoshoku, with roots in Japan going as far back as the Meiji period, evolved over time to suite the Japanese pallet and culture, taking western dishes, altering the tastes and arranging it with rice.

Thank you Paolo! We woke up this morning wanting to take a walk, but weren't sure where. Then we watched your video and decided to go to Asakusa and grab dinner there. This is such a great place. The food is so amazing and we talked with Sasagawa-san for a bit because there was a lull in the business. The beef stew was so delicious. And the potato salad. And we topped it off with the minced katsu. Soooo oishii. We told him we came because of you video, but he said he hadn't seen it yet because he is so busy (hardest working man in the yoshoku business). This restaurant is amazingly clean, especially for how long it's been open. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I don't know why I got a bit teary eyed watching this... they work so hard even the grandma 91 years old. I was stressed just watching him work.. no wonder his legs hurt. there was this lady at the japanese restaurant here in the states who worked 7 days a week, I never saw her rest. she got a heart attack & passed recently. :( after she passed, the husband moved back to Japan.I hope this family can get some r&r even amidst the busy schedule (although it's probably hard to ever close down food businesses, sigh).

Dear Paolo, Please tell the owner to change his shoes if his leg pain persists. It also happened to me bec I tried a new brand of European made kitchen clogs & it was ill fitting. I hate those type of “free time” crocs, an ex-colleague of mine slipped, fell then banged her head on a stainless table leg & I had to summon an ambulance in a middle of a crazy service time. She was wearing the same type of crocs as the owner in this video. There are crocs called bistro for chefs or change to Birkenstock. In my professional career as a chef for 2 decades Birkenstocks never failed.

The impression I got is that the father was "forced" into this line of work by pretty hard life circumstances. He made the best of it, but it doesn't mean this would have been his first choice. It's nice that he wants more for his son, but being 21 and working part time/not knowing what to do? That's a bad sign... 😢

Paulo I have watched all your behind the counter videos but this one really touched me. Just the way the family interacts with one another, from the 91 year old grandmother still working with an oxygen tank, and making a comment about her grandson going to see his girlfriend instead of working in the shop, to the way the owner talks about making time to still have dinner with his kids, I really feel like you captured the essence of what it means to be a family. It was really honest and heartwarming

That 91 years-old lady still working even after her lungs were ruined by Covid... I have no words to describe how much respect I have for her. Any time I see in your videos an elderly person still at work (which seems to be relatively common in Japan) I am in awe, but also in shock at the same time. I usually picture a grandma or a grandpa chilling at home after their years and decades of work, taking it day by day and just relaxing. Is there any standard, 'official' retirement age and system in Japan? Like the "usual" 65 years-old or so here in America where you just stop to work and get a monthly elderly pension? (On a side note, I'm not saying everyone should stop working at 65; even here it's perfectly legal to keep working even if you do receive the pension from 65 and beyond... but I'm just wondering how it works in Japan and if there's even that sort of system to start with).

>>Is there any standard, 'official' retirement age and system in Japan? Of course, Japan has a retirement age of 65 and also has a pension system. The amount of pension payments is determined by the amount and period of payments made to the Pension Corporation, so those with a small amount need to continue working even after retirement. However, it seems that most elderly people continue to work because they find purpose in working. I'm Japanese, and I'm certainly looking forward to the days after retirement when I don't have to work, but I'm worried that my days will be boring. If I think that way, I may feel like I want to continue working after retirement.

I have a gas stove and I have a Coleman lantern. I promise you I will always be able to cook ... Especially rice. In a pot.

What's amazing is that he single-handedly cooks almost all of the food. He definitely needs another chef who can take over if he gets sick. And he deserves praise for the cleanliness of the place, in high contrast to the historic seafood place you visited that had more staff and needed a deep cleaning. I was surprised he still watched his TV show while prepping on a day when he knew he was being filmed. Made it that much more realistic.

I love the people you meet in this series and it’s a skill to have them be so open about their lives. Always impressed by Japanese people’s industry and stoicism. There are few here in Britain with anywhere near the work ethic.

I am a chef by career choice, watching these videos where Paolo san interviews local chefs really is quite inspiring. I honestly hope to work in Japan as a chef.

This man's dedication is totally insane! So much respect for him doing the labor of many and taking no short cuts all at the same time. Even more respect because he knows all of his hard work may someday come to an end because he value's his children's happiness over his own ego and legacy. Would absolutely eat at that establishment if I could.

Thanks Paolo for always highlighting good food, but it's the people at the store that you find that are always amazing. A good family store like this is one I'm sure many viewers would want to support by visiting their shop. 👍
