Epic Street Food Tour in Kyoto Japan | Nishiki Market

Nishiki Market is the biggest open-air market in Kyoto Japan. With over 400 years of history, it’s also one of the oldest. On today’s video, we’re trying out a variety of street food, including Wagyu beef sushi and jumbo shrimp tempura on skewers.

So nice to have the quiet bustle of the market instead of loud, obnoxious commentary and soundtrack. Well done.

[@JToaster]

Cauxzie Ruffhausen exactly. Amazing

[@rahulkattimani4990]

🙌:-)

[@angemaidment5640]

If you watch this guy on his other channels, their commentary is awesome. Far from obnoxious.

[@louisachong7059]

Ditto 💖

[@chompchompfood]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@pollypissypants9872]

I’m Japanese American, raised in the states. I just love these videos. I’m happy to be able to see a part of my culture from abroad in such a relaxing manor. I don’t even hear shouting or excessive noise in the background. I never do in these videos, how lovely 😊!

[@joyceyamamoto5452]

I love your walking tours, Shinichi. Your camera work is a great blend of the bigger view of the market, combined with closeup shots of the food items you chose to eat. I love your written commentary!! The artwork on the cup is perfect, too. Your artistic views of architectural interest, signage, people, and food is simply fabulous! Much heartwarming thanks.

Thank you

[@lindab8563]

I love everything in Japan! My son lives there so I get care packages every now & then. ❤️

[@borasta9888]

Was stationed in Japan when i was in the Navy miss it very nice country and people. Wish i could return someday.

[@emersonwallace7226]

I LOVE THESE! Please more, feels like I’m there.

[@roxannestarratt5803]

I love the use of colors and and characters for their packaging 😀

[@GeekyGaia]

I really shouldn't watch these videos on an empty stomach LOL EVERYTHING LOOKS SO GOOD!!!

[@maxikioscoeljamon2264]

shit neither i, but i cant stop.

[@lolitlao2411]

Hehe

[@erinuber2881]

Nishiki Market is amazing! Even the first two places you visited, the senbei store and the wagashi store, looked so wonderful! I would have been so excited to shop there. Every place you visited looked fantastic. The individual-sized okonomiyaki looked like so much fun to eat. I always wish that something like that existed! I think that would be a good challenge for you and Satoshi for one of your cooking videos. Thanks for sharing this with us!

[@feslenraster]

hi Erin!! I hope you're doing good, sister :).

[@ceciliaogawa5807]

Thank you for walk through kyoto mall. It. brought memories for my son Tristen. He now wants to go back more than ever. The shrimp skewer looked good. I love shopping and could not notice the non food shops. I would get lost in shopping. Have a beautiful day!

[@RenerDeCastro]

Went here during my first trip to Kyoto back in 2018. Food was really, really good. All me and my mom had for lunch there was just random street food we found, and all of it was delicious.

[@JToaster]

Japan would be awesome to go to for so many reasons. The culture is so interesting, and the food always amazing. Hope very badly I can go some day.

[@OnlySlams]

I wanna go specifically for that matcha cafe 😭 I'm obsessed with it

[@Kitten202021]

I dream of one day going and living in Japan, but not in the city... I’d love to live in a small town on the mountains or maybe just an hour outside of a major city, you know? I really appreciate the culture and love the history and people there. Sadly, my dream may never happen... but I’m still holding onto it!

[@kkKkK.KK87]

[@risingsunjapanguideinfo8405]

The explanation of food is great!

[@janemisc6378]

I like your videos which showcase places in Japan. It reminds me the days when my family and I visited Japan last 2018. I really miss Japan.

[@TOKYOSMITH]

Yesterday, I had to give up visiting Nishiki Market because of the bad weather. I appreciate this upload! Shinko looks amazing. I'd like to try that next time I'm in Kyoto.

[@naurokai8138]

There's always a fascinating view on this video, the floor... Hehehehe... Why? Because it was sooooo clean. Having a good and clean environment makes you enjoy eating food. This is why Japan is very far beyond from the other countries when it comes to cleanliness and disciplined...

[@bornfree735]

Though I would never be able to afford travelling to Japan but this video culled my sweet tooth. Happy hunting!

[@aishkumar7022]

Brother.. one day you will travel the world! God bless everyone and may everyone’s wishes come true! 😊🙏🏻

[@eliotdelcray8642]

@@aishkumar7022 awwww that's nice of you.. i hope he/she saw your comment hehe.. thanks tho!

[@LisaMarli]

Ok, now I'm hungry. That beef looked excellent. And I'm usually a fan of fish.

[@ladymurasaki370]

Nice walk through. I probably go broke and buy everything I see! I did like the beef on the stick. It looked delish! 😋😋😋

[@mindyknipp8587]

The water bun looked amazing. Very different and I would love to try it some time. The beef skewer would probably be my favorite as well.

[@Hermit-Crab]

As soon as I can start travelling, I'm going to Kyoto! Destination, Nishiki Market!

[@Mrwhosethesus]

Your video is so professional even though you use and iMovie to film and edit. I would watch your vid in any day from now!

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

Thanks :)

[@4and20blackbirdsbakedinapi6]

Extremely severely underrated channel. Love your videos!

[@IWillAlwaysTravelforFood]

Thanks

[@paustinheaton]

Love that market! I spent a couple of months in Kyoto in 2010 and spent a small fortune at the Nishiki Market shops, including the 100 Yen shop. I really want to visit again. It's such a special city.

[@fameviolet4294]

I'm already planning my trip to Osaka-Kyoto. Thanks for the vid. God bless from Philippines!

[@Joliveebidaangsaya]

Im always looking forward to your uploads! Been rewarching yours vids for almost a month. Never fails to calm me down. Xoxo from Philippines.

[@Meems202]

Thank you for these videos! Love that you don't have background music or commentary. I also appreciate the descriptions you provide for some food people may be unfamiliar with. Can't wait to go to Japan once travel restrictions are lifted!

[@originelltnamn]

Nishiki-market is the best. Visited it atleast 4-5 times when I was in Kyoto for a week. So much food and souvenirs and stuffs :)

[@ARKADAS1965]

Thank you so much for telling us the ingredients in the food. I really want to try the rice crackers in the first shop!

[@indiauk7209]

I love ur videos so much... The food bring water in my mouth...... Even though I'm Indian. 🇮🇳

[@jhesabiaga308]

I now have a new favorite channel. It's so refreshing because the format is not like most vlogs. Looking forward to seeing more from you ☺️

[@wanpenrakcheep1792]

I love the Mizu Manju the see through jel with peach inside,it might be very nice sweet.

[@qwert_yuiop7506]

i want it all, everything looked so good!

[@planetaescapa6099]

Always enjoyable to watch . Thank you from California ❤️😊☀️

[@noahspeaker1455]

Everything looked so good. Im so hungry after watching this video lol

[@tanequagray]

So many wonderful things to see and eat, oh my how awesome😋😋😋😋

[@markwoodcock01]

Excellent video, Your a great cameraman, and now I’m hungry 👍

[@ichigomomomyia5701]

I am planning a trip with my boyfriend to japan and I am looking for something fun to do whilst being able to try a lot of local food so this is amazing! thank you, plus I get to practice a little Japanese along the way, I study Japanese

[@melissahoward8038]

I'm so happy that you don't have obnoxious music playing over the video. Instead I can enjoy the real sounds of the people and the environment.

[@aninjaguardian]

I was at Nishiki Market last year when I visited Kyoto. Great place that stretches several blocks. Lots of different shops selling a variety of things.

[@jcj68]

This brings so many good memories, we were there June 2019 and miss it so much! want to go back and do it all again!

[@andressatakao8199]

Beautiful place, thanks.

[@solinasora4250]

Those rice cakes! I would have had to order one of each flavour, so good!

[@saknaronk5953]

I like this Japan clip specially .

[@m1n1cute]

omg I have tried the wagyu sushi last year when I visited Japan. It was so good’

[@hoku2123]

日本人から見ても美味しいのがわかる

[@GraceJMJ]

So many nice food...oh my... Thank you for sharing this video.

[@sanemild223]

That part which says SAKE... theres a hand writen saying "There are many in the shop"... it has the same penmanship like mine! Hahaha!!

[@mindysmom6132]

Wow! Epic street food tour, is right! I’d go broke visiting, because not only would my eyes be bigger, than my stomach, but I’d want to buy up everything, to bring back home with me. The arare stand at the beginning looked so good. I found it interesting that the wagyu sushi is not dipped in shoyu. I also found it interesting that at the fish cake stall, there was a sign that said “no walking and eating.” Hmmmm....isn’t that what street food is all about? Oh, that kuromame milkshake, yum!! And all of the sweet beans! I’ve never had mizu manju before. I do know what kudzu is now, as I actually used it in an Osechi recipe this past Oshogatsu. I just found out that there’s a new (Hiroshima style), okonomiyaki restaurant in J-town. After looking at your okonomiyaki, I now want to try it. Brother!!!! I saw menchikatsu and grilled Ayu! I swear! I’d get whiplash at that marketplace! Thank you for sharing! Total bucket list video! ♥️

[@melissadunton3534]

Mindy's Mom I watched a video about walking and eating. That is older Japanese custom...from what I understand. Younger ppl don’t really think it’s that big of a deal, but if they ask you specifically not to eat and walk then I believe you’re supposed to stand in one spot while you eat.

[@mPDC-gh8jy]

“no walking and eating.” means: "Please eat them in standing and stationary. Don't walk around in the crowd while foods on your hands otherwise the food which you have might stain other's clothing."

[@danistacy919]

I love soy milk so I would love to try the soy bean shake or the fresh soy milk!

[@Jacko-902]

Please more videos ! I love that you mention the prices in $ !

[@nimuemoonwolf]

Ok your vids are starting to spook me lol. This is the 2nd vid to have a coincidence with me xD. I bought that exact (triangle cut filled with azuki bean) yatsuhashi only from a shop that gets imported Japanese food and it arrived this morning wth it!

[@user-pr6pj2sb7u]

I like that you actually tried some foods🍢🍣

[@k-thing2417]

I just came to this channel~ I like a lot of Japanese foods. Especially, beef sushi is great in this video🍣😍

[@christopherings7996]

I deeply appreciate the lack of narration, just the natural noise and ambiance of the place as captured by the camera's microphones. The text commentary is quite good enough. Much better than overly produced TV content with a narrator that won't shut up. Excellent work.

[@dragnridr05]

When I go to Japan, I'll end up being broke before the first day due to me wanting to buy up all the food. I'll need at least a million yen for my trip.

[@ej3016]

13:25 definitely the grilled beef on skewer - it made my heart sing and I could neither taste it nor smell it - I think my knees would go weak if I were to actually eat it 😃😉 many thanks for another great episode on street foods - next to breakfasts they are my fav 🤗

[@jackfan1274]

Everything looked really yummy especially the fried shrimp 😛🍤. Would love to go there someday

[@tamara4557]

Love this street! The beef katsu on the menu looks amazing as well.

[@TokyoCapsuleCollection]

Japan has decided to ease entry restrictions. Deregulation will start on 11 October. Japan welcomes more tourists than ever before. This video is very helpful for visiting Japan. Thank you for introducing us to Japan.

[@MyNewYorkLife]

Awesome video 👍👍👍👍Everything looked so 👍

[@swetuski]

This is what i come to see, its to feel like I’m there. Commentary is nice in some ways but to have no commentary and simply walk around makes you feel like you truly are there, the subtitles and having the prices translated into US currency is very appreciative. I put this on when I’ve had a really tough day and its like I’m there. Thank you so much please continue doing videos like this, a lot of people really appreciate the no commentary videos. Some may like commentary but I and a few others are not. Thank you very much

[@kuma1939]

A truly great walk-through! The beef skewer really made my mouth water. Super video! Bless /\

[@TheDerangedBlood]

I love all your videos. They are so relaxing and I enjoy exploring a new world outside of my own. Thank you for making these videos.

[@purplelilacs6706]

Such an interesting vid! Very pleasurable to watch as there is no blah, blah, blah from the blogger!! Very much appreciated.....thank you for giving us sub-titles as to what you are eating & how it tastes! Happy to subscribe!

[@harimaugajah2959]

We love Nishiki Market, last year we went for holiday to Japan. We really2 enjoyed Kyoto. We explored everywhere, we love staying at Ryokan. Good luck for your channel.

[@great-grandmakirk8828]

Wow ! the tempura jumbo shrimp sure was expensive. Everything looks so tasty,I’m sure I would love it all. Thank you for shatter these videos. The crape is well worth the price . My favorite was the veggie crape.❤️👍🏻

[@ajaykatheria3131]

I love Japan 🇮🇳❤️🇯🇵 😍😍😍😍♥️♥️

[@bhengdelavega6191]

The Mizu Manju I think very delicious & interesting food. because it's sweet and more I like on your vlogs.

[@elnabjelland-hughes8172]

I enjoyed walking with you on this tour - the food looked delicious- I wish I could’ve tasted some maybe someday 😂👍😊💕

[@Kimjongun19841]

many thanks for the memories comrade I had a major trip through Japan in 2019

[@katrinblechen180]

we enjoy all your shopping videos! its so difficult to buy some japanese things and food in our country, so we can dream a little bit.and the videos are a nice memory to our honeymoon trip,we make 2017.thank you for making the videos!

[@gautamgharat3772]

Everything looking very nice & good food

[@mimosakia2997]

Those cute backpacks n the ceramics..makes me wanna pinch the phone..😁😁 nice video..👍👍

[@chesilly]

That grilled beef skewer looked so tasty!!

[@kvom01]

I came here 3 years ago in October; it was much more crowded then in this video. I had to try the small red squid on a stick that has the quail egg in the head. Not that tasty but makes for a good selfie for the folks back home. My favorite item was ponzu flavored soft serve ice cream.

[@ericdavids9667]

I love seeing the shops.. wish you would show some toy stores, & other cool shops like that...& more food stalls

[@vbee3571]

I like that you tell us what things are and how much U.S. they cost. 👍🏻

[@tokyotart3523]

I want to just say. I stopped watching this new channel for a while. This weekend I am going back and watching everything I missed. Lovin it.

[@Ralesk]

That okonomiyaki looked really unusual :D More like an omelette!

[@scottsinclair366]

I like these videos. I doubt I will ever visit Japan; this is just as good.

[@liu4life]

I vlog from shanghai and always worry about me being a bad presenter. Your videos just prove you don’t even need to speak to tell great stories (subtitles help!). I love this market! Was the best market experience we had in Tokyo. We actually even went to the first store you tried the rice crackers at! Unfortunately we tried the rice cakes, which wasn’t so great. Will try the crackers next time!

[@princealbertz]

I miss visiting this place

[@jshilohshea381]

everything looked so yummy ! hard to choose which are my favorites...glad you enjoyed !

[@borasta9888]

Loved eating when i was stationed in Japan. My girl would take me to nice places. Didn't eat a lot of traditional stuff but what i ate was very good japan was nice best country i visited while in the Navy

[@cauxzieruffhausen9547]

...and there's a temple right outside. Wow.

[@jellydonutsrule]

What a charming video. If I am ever able to make there, I will play your video and eat along with you.

[@pakeshde7518]

All that wonderful food and in the end, the giant Wendy's first kitchen *laugh*. The sad part is I want to try how japan does a hamburger now. Wonderful looking video as usual.

If I ever visit Japan I would like to try Tempura Shrimp. I,ve eaten here in the U.S. and it was delicious!!!! I would like to try Matcha tea dessert. Hi Justin!!!!! I enjoyed the video!!! Thank you!!!

[@lols486]

i was so confused as to why at some points people were wearing winter coats and then in another cut everyone's dressed lightly - and then realised it's probably filmed at different times. The editing is impeccable
