Japan Izakaya (Pub style Restaurant) - Eric Meal Time

[@wilsonwilson5922]

Eric just wanna say this, i love your vlogs and think you have one of the best food vlogs out there because you show different unique stuff and not only those highly rated shops but from vending machine, small restaurants to famous restaurants.

[@JASONW1244]

Thanks for posting so much been following for a while and I try to never miss!! Keep up all the good work!!

[@MattzBrah]

I love my Eric meal time!!! Best thing to watch before bed!

[@louisfarrance571]

What I really like is that Eric takes on board all comments, be them positive or constructive. Thank you for listening Eric, much appreciated.

[@neikolasg]

You know it’s going to be a great day when you wake up to an Eric Meal Time in the subscriptions box!

[@999bossy]

Omg that food looks amazing 😍😍😍😍 ahhh even after being subscribed to you for over two years I still just love your videos so much ❤️❤️

[@QuestionBlockGaming]

Yummy! You sir, always find the most interesting places to eat. Thanks for sharing. Also, congrats on 700+K subs.

[@ericsurf6]

Thanks Pep!

[@waynesauntry172]

Some very 'interesting' food choices for this video. I'll pass on the chitlins but would like to try all of the other choices. Really enjoy your izakaya videos.

[@chelseys6139]

Love your videos Eric! Love the eating sounds and enthusiasm 😂❤️ Please never stop making Eric Meal Time! 👌🏼 My question is: What is one place you’ve eaten at in Japan that has blown you away? What is the must eat at spot you recommend?

[@livardo]

Your facial expressions are the best. Sometimes I can't tell if you're gonna hate something by the face you make, or like it!

[@jerrodp9867]

I've seen a hundred videos, but I'm a new sub now. You have a unique view on Japanese food and you are as cool as the other side of the pillow.

[@manabecky6011]

Thanks for explaining Bulldog sauce..Im sure yo have explained many times before but as always love your channel #1 fan!

[@ninisworld667]

Why am i only now finding this channel? I love it! Please keep doing these. What do the sausages taste like in japan?

[@pablog7870]

Thank you for sacrificing yourself for our viewing pleasure hahaha great video Eric “ get some “ “ Wasa B “

[@hamsalady]

You should do a live stream at a restaurant and let us choose your food

[@ericsurf6]

Good idea. I choose Ham Salad.

[@EditWithAndy]

Had a lot of fun editing this one!!

[@ericsurf6]

Thanks Andy! I really appreciate you work and attention to detail.

[@pablog7870]

I second that notion - great editing

[@theoargyros3618]

I learn so much off of the eric meal time episodes, I recognised more than half of the food just from watching your videos!

[@MrVirobot]

I'm from canada. Ever think of coming here and eating Poutine with a true Montreal Smoked Meat Sandwich? Love your content Eric. I've been watching your incredible backlog of Eric Meal Time especially, going to work through your other content as well. Great stuff man!

[@HemlockHolly]

Fresh uncooked cabbage smells wonderful and is sweet and delicious! Love the fresh soybeans too! You are brave trying every food. Your descriptions spot on, you are very honest. Great video, keep them coming please...

[@JulieT..]

Thank you for sharing Eric. So interesting to see all the different foods available. Looks tasty! 🍽 👍

[@Bicth97]

so you can only dip once in that sauce tin? is that because they reuse it?

[@nvsilverlady]

What would you recommend to someone who was visiting Japan for the first time on where to stay/lodging? Lowest to high end level

[@jeremybiwer8756]

The cabbage leaves are for you to dip in the sauce and add to the katsu after the first dip if you need more.

[@marcuss237]

6:48 a.m. here in Tx. Gotta watch Ericsurf6. GET SOME!!

[@musmaki4109]

Marcus Smith is Eric’s biggest fan... I reckon he’d watch during his wedding if surf6 had just uploaded.

[@marcuss237]

@@musmaki4109 . You're right. GET SOME!!. Thx for recognizing. Lol. Stay cool.

[@ShamrockSake]

Also wanna say, my inner video game nerd loved the McCree "Its High Noon" reference.

[@ericsurf6]

Yeah, my editor put that in there.

[@ShamrockSake]

@@ericsurf6 Hes Awesome, lol.

[@christerhall68]

People say Eric must eat more rice, then takes a "big" bite of the rice ball😄

[@slfd2530]

Because of you and your videos I learning Japanese food. Where in the states would be close to JAPAN based foods. Thank you for another great video

[@rebeccaalabada1064]

Wow! Lots of interesting food! Some looked really good! My question(s): 1. What made you decide to do KZbin? 2. Have you ever gotten sick from any of the foods you've eaten from your videos?

[@LL-qq4go]

You chew everything like there's no tomorrow lol. Drinks water, chews aggressively

[@andrewl7734]

Hi Eric, my girlfriend and I are big fans! We watch your videos together over FaceTime, almost every night!

[@MeatCooker]

are you still together ?

[@XRatedRockstar23]

Anyone else “like” the video before you even watch? Lol Eric Meal Time always rocks :)

[@sm00ches79]

Love waking up to a cup of coffee and my Eric videos😊

[@jamesneuhauserakajimdogg6096]

Thank you for another delicious show Eric. All those fried foods and that house sauce, ughhh you’re killing me lol. Go Team Get Some!!!

[@coronagovea]

Can’t wait til you reach a million...😻

[@TheJohnwilson566]

Great video!!! I always look forward to these. Yummy! And you are so funny

[@superbroadcaster]

Wow Eric I watched you way back in 2008 on here visiting the tower with the locks on the chain link fence, and watching your magic videos! Keep up the good work!

[@ericsurf6]

Thanks Kelly for hanging in there so long.

[@cassidylong6305]

Love that you like your greens. Do you really like them or only eat them because they are good for you?

[@jaehaspels9607]

I eat cabbage leaves w/ ponzu dipping sauce a lot. It's a great diabetic snack. No carbs. Thanks for the vid. The food was different and looked good.

[@laineygrace8162]

Something so calming watching and listening to Eric's vlogs! 🤗

[@BethyBlue]

Your face any time you eat a raw egg is everything 😂

[@zarennaangel1198]

Eric, what places would you recommend for people visiting Japan to eat and visit?

[@ericsurf6]

I recommend all of the places that I gave a nom nom nom ranking for.

[@perdomot]

I found out about kushikatsu 3 years ago and have been hooked ever since. My place in Tokyo is called Kushizaru in Ueno and I always go there several times when I'm on vacation.

[@tripp540]

Another great video ES6. When you say tangy, what sauce is it comparable to here in the states?

[@MizTheWitch]

I'd love to ask you a question Eric! I was wondering what's 3 or 4 places in Japan you'd suggest I'd visit if I were to come on a trip, as I've always wanted to go to Japan and plan to come one day! I will probably go to Tokyo but I am open to suggestions outside of Tokyo, I am also not a drinker so bars aren't the best option for me. Thank you for your time and suggestions ~ Miz

[@ericsurf6]

I recommend going to any of the places in my videos that I rank a nom nom nom. Info in video descriptions.

[@BethyBlue]

Yay! You had the tempura sting ray and you said you prefer it another way so it’s nice to get to see that.

[@emmaleong5025]

I love all these izakaya videos

[@Kevin-ij7xk]

Hey Eric, would you ever consider doing videos on Japanese drive throughs ??? Love your videos especially the resent Hawaii ones👍

[@DefectiveMatrix]

When did you first decide to move to Japan and why? Love your videos Eric, lifetime fan here!❤👍🤘😁😁👍👍🔥🔥

[@MarcyandI]

Love your videos! Makes me want to take a trip, literally just for the food!

[@elvenmagejr1905]

Eric, do you like deep sea fishing? What's the biggest fish you have ever caught? Also, I think it would be interesting to see a video of you catching something and taking it to a restaurant to have them cook it for you.

[@09ramsie]

I Love the Japanese pubs there so cheap and tasty great video Eric 😀👍📹 and my question is what is your hardest stunt you have attempted in guy in a suit.

[@angelr8910]

Thanks for throwing in gals. You know we watch your videos a lot surfer dude. So thanks for that!!! Great video as usual!!

[@drewsfoodreviews]

Lots of cool dishes at that one eric all those deep fried ones looked really good would have tried them all

[@ericsurf6]

Thanks Drew!

[@b-red22]

Could you do a video on learning Japanese? Maybe one of your mystery videos. I love your videos I get super excited when i see an alert on my phone from your channel

[@WANDERER0070]

See my channel for Japanese teachers vids

[@pantera991]

Love these izakaya videos!!

[@elizadelacruz3097]

Hi!!! I found your channel a few days ago and I love your videos! I have a lot of questions actually like how did your learn japanese? How long did it take you? Any tips for people Who want to learn? And what would you tell people Who want to live in Japan? Thanks for this oportunity!

[@fleshen]

Eric have you been to Nara Tenri? First place I visited in Japan loved it there! Especially a bar near the station!

[@mattkietz1304]

Hey Eric! Awesome videos. Love the content! I have always wanted to go to Japan, been around the world and saw many places but Japan is one place I haven’t managed to get to. I got hooked on your vids because I enjoyed seeing Japan on a ‘day in the life’ situation. My question, why and when did you move to Japan?

[@MrJust4lolz]

the head of cabbage is made for u to use as a bowl for the dipping sauce in case u want to double dip so this way you double dip into your own private sauce instead of the table's sauce

[@Bicth97]

I appreciate you eating a lot of weird stuff for us this go around, very interesting to see things I've never heard of.

[@jeffglenn7609]

Okay I have a question Eric how long did it take to learn to read Japanese characters and how much farther do you have to go to be fluent

[@elvisdapanda193]

Jeff Glenn great question lol I’ve always wanted to know this too haha

[@babsrodriguez5267]

My question exactly.

[@ftyiogtyre7769]

10.000 hours

[@theannoyedmrfloyd3998]

I've been at it since 1995...

[@jeffglenn7609]

@@theannoyedmrfloyd3998 fluent yet?

[@ayom5600]

I love the izakaya series!

[@DAVE-J-B]

The one dip restaurants give you cabbage so you can use the cabbage leaf as a sort of spoon to add more sauce...

[@chantelecampbell600]

Love watching your videos.

[@jennyleeeeeee]

My favorite part of Saturday😊👋😉

[@rodpasichnyk9140]

What is Japanese mayo made of, is it like North American mayo? It's eaten on everything there?

[@ericsurf6]

Japanese mayo is thicker & more rich in taste.

[@TeddieSook]

they also have mayo smoothie. YES, im serious!

[@Ant29]

Japanese mayo is amazing!

[@tomhardware2254]

I bought kewpie Japanese mayo, it taste exactly like miracle whip. I was very disappointed. Not that I don’t like miracle whip but I thought Japanese mayo would be some hidden wonderful taste I have been missing.

[@nintendonut100]

Uses more egg yolks I think and uses rice wine vinegar, it's got a really nice tang to it

[@crypticchameleon4339]

How often do you do fan meet ups? I’m coming to Japan in June and would love to meet you!

[@markenger2792]

love you Eric, every mouthfull an adventure!!!!

[@williampatience9524]

Just wondering if you have ever been to Sado. Great food and interesting history. It's one of my favorite places in Nihon.

[@commanderchicostick4155]

Another great video keep it up Eric

[@pritamjitbiswas6967]

Great video !! Memories came back when i went to dokan in 2017 !! Much love from India eric !!! ❤️🇮🇳

[@tae7965]

when visiting Japan where would you suggest trying your first meal.. what type of eatery...?

[@rschrader]

Another nice video Eric! Are you a full-time KZbinr or do you have another job? If you have another gig, what is it? What brought you to Japan? How long have you been married? How often do you travel outside of Japan?

[@amberhi3]

Hi Eric!! As a new-ish subscriber, I'm curious as to how you wound up in Japan? What do you do for work? And also, do you have any pets? Thanks for the great content, I'm loving all your vids!!😁💟🖤💚

[@giornnogiovanna4466]

I know this video is a year old but the cabbage they serve you is actually meant for their “house sauce” in the event you want to double dip or need extra sauce you can actually dip the cabbage into the sauce and use it as a spoon to get sauce onto what you are eating.

[@firepantheress9576]

Hi Eric. My question is have you ever tried the all you can eat Dagashi restaurant ? I'd love to see you make a video on it.

[@brownhabibi7022]

Do more of these please. Love this kind of content

[@germanjesus]

How much do you like mayonnaise? It’s literally everywhere you eat I couldn’t handle it. Another great vid

[@jackieashe9124]

May help with the intestine type of meals - but I doubt it

[@JefficusMaximus]

Here's my question...do you ever get recognized from your videos at all when you're out and about in Japan?

[@deeisme1369]

I have been binge watching your videos. I gather you’re a college professor there. Where are you from? And how on earth did you ever get into doing this? I’m a new subscriber and those vending machines are awesome. I get a little squeamish with the octopus and squid. Just can’t.

[@franktrapani4840]

I love the way you enjoy your food. Nothing loike a good meal. What food do perfer more japan or the food in the states.

[@tinaheilo89]

Can you please make a list of all the must eat at restaurants in Tokyo for people who will be visiting!!!

[@pokcay]

Good God i’m finger crossing that i’ll get accepted at grad school in Niigata. I would very much like to meet up with Eric and go on a food adventure!
