FLAMETHROWER TUNA - Japanese Street Food in Osaka, Japan | CRAZY Street Food in Japan (居酒屋とよ)

Street Food in Osaka, Japan | Flamethrower Japanese Chef
In our third and final episode from Osaka, Japan we feast on some of the BEST street food in Japan! Including the EXTREME street food served at Izakaya Toyo, where chef Toyo-san cooks seafood using a MASSIVE flamethrower. This had to be one of the most amazing preparations of street food I have ever seen! Not to mention the food was delicious!
We also sampled Osaka's most FAMOUS street food - Takoyaki! Creamy batter balls stuffed with chunks of octopus! Osaka is a street food HEAVEN! We also visited the Tsuruhashi Market also known as the Korean Market! While there was lots of Korean street food, we stuck with a popular little spot selling fresh tuna sashimi bowls!
What an incredible day we had in Osaka and a perfect way to end our HUGE Japanese street food tour! If you enjoyed the video make sure you hit subscribe and also share this video with your food loving friends!
Locations:
mochi - outside of tsuruhachi market
tuna bowls - maguro alley

Luke Martin hi Luke , just curious... is ur co-host in Denver now? I saw one looked like her today In downtown Denver.,. I should ask for taking a picture together...😁

[@TV-jl8oe]

You are around Korea...visit Jeonju, Korea. I can show you around ...haha..

[@JayeetaBhattacharyaTunu6989]

Izakaya Toyo San is on Netflix now. The documentary food show Street Food- Asia has him featured for the Japan (Osaka) episode. His story is heart touching. 😊

[@kneth1935]

Just watched it. You're absolutely right. Toyo's story is amazing.

[@JayeetaBhattacharyaTunu6989]

@@kneth1935 😊👍🏽

[@blebhan8213]

Love the food on that show, but the stories are so depressing. I wish they just stick with the food.

[@JayeetaBhattacharyaTunu6989]

@@blebhan8213 I understand that you felt sad to learn about the tragedies and pains in their lives. But my friend you have to realize that they became heroes and now they are all successful and famous because all of them fought their tragedies. Now they are all winners, they are all respected and loved.

[@c1h9o8b0i]

Toyo's story touched my heart after watching his story on Netflix. I'll be going to Japan in September and I'm on a mission to visit his restaurant and eat his food. Can't wait.

[@MsKestrela]

I've seen Toyo-san featured in other vlogs, but never as well as this one. His unique technique for cooking would be a major reason for me to go to Osaka. That sashimi plate was off the hook for the sheer quantity! You can tell that he really tried hard with English, and kudos to him for that. Another amazing video, Luke and Sabrina!

[@LukeMartin]

Toyo-san is worth the trip to Japan alone!

[@wakeup5641]

The old man is so cool with the Amazing fireproof hands.

[@LukeMartin]

hahaha oh yeah!

[@alexanderhaag235]

Smoke from an open fire contains many carcinogenic PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon). It's amazing if you want to get cancer.

[@lucyho4731]

The flame thrower man is so friendly, jovial and energetic and I think his hand is inborn with fire.That kaisedon bowl and seafood platter is so packed with goodness.A fair price for that rice skewer.

[@koreazilla]

Lighting a cig with a flamethrower. Style points. Food looks awesome, editing on point. Dropped a like. Cheers!

[@LukeMartin]

Definitely style points indeed

[@esthers5876]

Best video ever! That seafood trio at Izakaya Toyo looked amazing, as did the sashimi earlier. I especially liked the takoyaki place in Dotonbori - reminds me of the one in Yakuza 0 and Kiwami! And Luke burning the hairs off his hand to bring us this video. Epic!

[@LukeMartin]

Haha thank you so much!

[@BrendaBenoit]

The Blowtorch Chef was incredible! The flames were so close to his face while he was lighting the cigarette!

[@LukeMartin]

Yes he is incredible!

[@magalibel5476]

What a wonderful video with the old man and his fireproof hand ! Dishes seem super amazing especially the bowl with tuna ! Thx a lot for sharing and looking forward for your next videos ! Hugs from France

[@elsalisa146]

I admire Toyo sooooo much he is my Hero! You are so lucky to meet him. Thanks for making a video with him!

[@yhc5318]

Luke everytime I see one of your vids I get hungry and that is my gauge of whether a food related video is on point or not. Watching you and sabrina enjoy the myriad of dishes is pure joy. One thing I would like to know is if either of you ever ran into a dish that was so unpalatable that you just couldn't bear to taste it? Can't wait for the next one and the next one.....great stuff.

[@teresabristygomes5754]

Thanks for your new video.😊 Wow! The man is really awesome!
