I really love this expression: "Please use my body, mind, and energy for the benefit of everyone around."

[@Audrey-faithlife]

Don’t you wonder I or ? Who she is talking too , when she made that expression. Blessings.

[@Lipurshan]

The best of you is the most beneficial for others - prophet Muhammad

[@ericlautanen6750]

Suggestions of selflessness are to be carried out by those suggesting it.

[@charlene6306]

Without hesitation -putting your staff first and over customers is good business

[@Katie1219.]

The fact that she prioritizes her team over customers means so much to me! In US it’s totally the opposite and “customer is always right”, which is completely insane. She is such a lovely soul! Good bless her ❤

[@s.e.3252]

I frecuent go to a café were the team is pioritized over customers (1st hand experience) "the team" is rude, self serving, zero customer service, if customer dares to ask for specific way to get their coffeee, you'll be asked to leave, reason? "Barista was disrespected". Be carefull for what you ask for.

[@fransisco5748]

"the most interesting game in life is work. You get to clear various obstacles." Man this changed my view towards work...

[@jimjimgl3]

Yuuka is the type of person you would want to work for or have work for you...she seems so unafraid of hard work and seems to possess a very kind character.

[@randallnguyen7405]

Na, Yuuka is the type of person you want to marry. She'd make a fine wife.

[@christophercho2496]

weird comment

[@donaldist7321]

duty to Japan and kindness to the Japanese.

[@Outcome_Agent]

I just love these more causal and natural videos. Nothing is staged. Everyone is just relaxed and themselves

[@kyeiskenagres6447]

Taking care of the staff is the biggest move

[@silviavasla]

I can't wait to try this in Tokyo! What a young force! I can't wait until she opens multiple stores worldwide!!!!

[@ryuukakhadijah7766]

Love her spirit ❤ She's basically living my dream life. And I love it that she stops by the shrine every single morning. Someone who prays everyday has a different spirit than the ones praying only when things get bad. Her work principle is awesome too❤ Respect to her.

[@danielucha1310]

"Please use my body, mind, and energy for the benefit of everyone around." It shows the collective mind of Japanese and its hospitality, I love it. By the way, great new channel logo at the beginning, Ken!

[@ken_honda]

Wooohooo~!! Thanks for noticing our new logo for the first time!! Great to hear you liked it🐇

[@tryphenarose384]

If she expanded her shop overseas, that would be a dream. 😍We have a large variety of foods here in the US, however, I've always found authentic Japanese food harder to come by. Most sushi shops here, are not authentic at all. Would love to experience more authentic Japanese food, as I love the food, culture, language and people so much.

[@KristianDowling]

What a sweet lady who has the right heart and attitude, topped off with the right smile. Wishing her all the best, and gave her a follow too.

[@rg20322]

A very impressive person Yuuka is and appreciate the extreme hard work she puts into this business. She also seems to be very proud of Japan and has a great spirit, which I appreciate. I wish her the most success and know that she will do well.

[@Beaut_Beau]

What a delightful lady, i wish her all the best!

[@muddled_thoughts]

Ken I'm glad you're showing people's rooms again, but I am especially glad you're going more in depth about their careers. We need you more in the video, though!

[@phuongngo2105]

The Owner Lady so Cute , and Hard work ❤❤❤

[@GiselleMetcalf-Grosso]

What a sweet prayer to start every work day!!

[@kiyoshitakeda452]

Another excellent "Day in the Life" video. I enjoy these as I shows a glimpse of real Japanese life. Thank you for the video.

[@ken_honda]

Thanks for the comment! Come back again for the next video!

[@chestersidd1626]

If she’s planning to expand her business oversea, please make a shop in Oahu, Hawaii. Would definitely stop by and try many Onigiri combinations her shop has to offer. 🤙 🏝️

[@yutai08]

What a great ethic and value system Yuuka has. Those onigiri look delicious!

[@hotfarts6731]

I agree with her approach to ensuring that her employees are cared for more than customers. Without happy employees, you won't have happy or repeat customers.

[@thomastanita6022]

I would be proud to have a hard working daughter like her

[@positiveandstrong2988]

She always smile and happy👍

[@aaroncampbell8303]

Your videos give me a day if the life in Japan . So interesting to meet these people and hear there stories and learn about the business or jobs. Love it!

[@clarissedee]

Beautiful lady. Love her work philosophy and everyday prayer/ wish. 🥰 Hope to visit soon~

[@melodybucker3803]

What an amazing person! I love her perspective. I would happily eat her Onigiri anywhere❤ I don't know how you found her, but good job! A lovely ambassador for Japan

[@pinkmoonjuice5158]

What an absolute legend ❤🎉

[@maix139]

I really like Yuuka's attitude

[@elfelizardo6182]

What an inspiring young woman. ❤

[@KuroRitsuka]

I love these "day in the life" videos 😊

[@Bobby-ho5he]

what an amazing woman. so young yet so wise, compassionate and loving.i now dream to eat her onigiri

[@GyanPrakash]

She’s so full of life ❤

[@ropro9817]

Wow, what an impressive person! Love her! ❤ I'm definitely visiting her shop next time I go to Tokyo. 🤠

[@daylecb]

Great video! I really enjoyed this one, more work focused instead of personal. I do enjoy them both tho! Can’t wait for more videos 👏

[@Chris-ji4iu]

Love her smile - infectious! Great video. Thank you.

[@theodorehelvivirr6429]

Wow she’s amazing I love her mind and thoughts.

[@TamagoSando86]

I appreciate her management approach. I also need her same Nike sweatshirt and joggers set for myself! It looks cute and comfy.🥰

[@jenbyers3840]

This is awesome!!!

[@richardhanson4600]

[@LifeWithBarry]

[@yasmin7818]

[@franco3584]

[@ken_honda]

Thanks for your comment Franco3584 as always!! Let us know what you picked out of all the menu, if you visited her shop!!

[@EcomCarl]

Emphasizing employee satisfaction as a pathway to customer happiness is a powerful strategy that can lead to sustained business success and growth. 🍙

[@Soraldor]

Another place to visit when I'm in Japan

[@sheilasu5006]

Always the most interesting and great videos from Ken & Erika, my favorite Japanese KZbinr! Always waiting for updates! Best wishes as always! ❤

[@luckycharms960]

I almost cried watching this.

[@ewamclean6878]

Lovely!

[@internationalme2897]

Great video, I really felt I got to know her from this. Great editing and transitions.

[@ken_honda]

Amazing person isn't she!! Thanks for watching!

[@PhoenixL0vee]

Living the dream! I want to go and learn from her and work in her restaurant!

[@nobodynothing00000]

I'll be sure to stop by my next trip to Japan. I was hoping to come in November again but I really want to see nippon league baseball so I might wait until next Spring.

[@jtf267]

Yum... They look so delicious.

[@rodrigostorm8956]

由華が凄い！動画を見るだけで和の心感じました！応援してます～ 🍙

[@puhfyn]

Thanks!

[@ken_honda]

Thank you so much Puhfyn! We really appreciate your support!!

[@Unan1mouz]

Such a lovely looking person! May her dream comes true :)

[@raven_bard]

She leads a very much philosophical lifestyle.

[@kendeguzman9023]

Yuuka san and her onigiri store was also featured in News Every a few days ago..

[@davidtomsr]

We will try it in August 2024! 😋🤙

[@SpencerGatten]

Her patriotism and passion is very impressive! If Ken is ever in Sapporo he should check out Nounours Cafe. The owner there is very passionate as well!

[@ken_honda]

The latte from the cafe looks amazing!!

[@ropro9817]

Yuuka-san: Try making corn and umeboshi or corn and salmon onigiri. They are delicious combos! 😄🍙

[@rnguy001]

nice job man. This game is one of the GOATs but it takes it out of you

[@ken_honda]

Thanks you!! We will try for another GOATs for the next one!

[@hermyt]

The end was funny.

[@ismaelhall3990]

Shes good.

[@insidiousfish]

3:38 From a design point of view, that shop logo is fantastic. 9:43 Well, corn on rice is probably carbo redundancy. Thanks for another great video!

[@ken_honda]

Thanks for watching! and thanks for the straightforward nutritional POV on rice and corn🤣

[@GameFuMaster]

corn being a favourite food is unexpected lol

[@sarangty3677]

Finally Ken honda is back with another video, as normal now you seems upload more often

[@ken_honda]

[@treezshaw]

she could do a corn and cheese or cream kind of onigiri i suppose 😅 loved this video!

[@benapiza6736]

❤ from Philippines 👍😊😍

[@Lipurshan]

Please dont stop making a day in the life

[@GIChiyo]

These look delicious!! I also love corn, maybe she can look into a butter rice onigiri, aka put buttered rice in the middle, maybe with some bee or eggf? I bet that would be good haha

[@valmorcordeiro1533]

This place is close to Nishi-Koyama station, I passed by several times.

[@WANDERER0070]

All those onigiri Oishiisou ❤

[@Momo-qo7is]

It’s near my place. I am going to visit her restaurant during the golden week! Thanks 😊❤

[@ken_honda]

Wow, lucky you!! Let us know what you had!!!

[@Momo-ir6jg]

I went there today and told the owner that I was there because of your channel. It was delicious! I love the 2個セット with soy sauce egg yolk and salmon eggs on top! 5 stars ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨!

[@Momo-qo7is]

@@Momo-ir6jg please keep introducing “Day in the life of the amazing local shop owners !

[@ken_honda]

Amazing! Hope we get to bump in at her place one day! Thanks for the exciting comment!

[@josuep9328]

Ken you crazy son-of-a-gun you done did it again! Thank you Ken and wife! Woohoo!

[@frithbarbat]

なんて長い１日だ！

[@user-zw9sn2nz2k]

I like onigiri❤this video made me very happy🎵so made me starving🍙 My favorite filling is TUKUDANI! KONB IKANAGOKUGINI there is so nice taste! My recommend🎵 Thank you❗️

[@eileenmartin6086]

They look yummy 🍙

[@user-we4qi6zl6y]

please expand to Singapore! :)

[@silviastanziola659]

I actually think that you could pull off an onigiri filled with corn and chicken (probably with some mayo involved) and it would be delicious - but not very Japanese at all.

[@eggegg8181]

I want to eat those onigiri so much.

[@user-vx5bu8tr5y]

5:43 install multiple humidifiers in restaurant to benefit customers, staff and yourself?

[@tatysouza6421]

Parece uma delicia o Onigiri !!

[@djfmf]

I'd be a regular customer for sure.

[@zurc_bot]

What is the typical rent for a place this size? and is it easy to get a loan from the bank?

[@bjk_manutd5238]

I liked the video but have done without the constant music at the background

[@HZAres]

mayo corn onigiri sounds fine
