Fish: look how colorful my scales are. Hiro: good afternoon 😃

[@fatinchan2296]

My handsome chefs...🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@Extort713]

Not a fan of puncturing the guts by shoving your knife inside the stomach.

[@vtm89]

For a second I thougt I was on Travel Thirsty channel...

[@MxntiMedia]

Me too man.. I've seen that same video so many times lol.

[@starfire7274]

Didnt had to scroll down much to find this comment

[@wanosmanyamani2199]

Tell me about it

[@The_Nameless_Entity]

We call this fish Uhu in Hawaii and one of our favorite ways to prepare it is stuffed. but Chef, I think you need to teach this preparer not to cut the stomach lining so all that fish kaka dont get all over the fish. lol

[@AverytheCubanAmerican]

That fish is beautiful but it was bound to be met by the legendary Hiro

[@-LowResDream]

Was thinking the same thing

[@stlalways6715]

He should have picked it up from the tank. Could have added catch to his clean and cool title!

[@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un]

Good afternoon! I hope you visit Pyongyang

[@kawhileonard1719]

Luh

[@God4445]

[@Jake-dx1mf]

Maybe you could share some Swiss cheese.

[@willazeppeli]

the only place where you go and never leave...

[@redvanderbilt289]

Lol if Hiro says good afternoon on you, your reign and country will be finished

[@crystalwong39]

Parrotfish: I love my blue skin Hiro: Good afternoon

[@TuncayAyhan]

Make a collab with Sonny from the Best Ever Food Review Show!

[@nahor88]

THIS... this needs to happen! I think Sonny and Hiro would get along so well.

[@ANGIE-pn6uc]

Yesssss

[@jkns.808s8]

In Hawaii we call this fish uhu. Very tasty! Especially when we stuff it with lupchong or Portuguese sausage, onion, garlic, green onion, parsley and mayo. Then we wrap it and then bake or throw it on the BBQ grill. Dip it in some shoyu and chili pepper water! Yum!!

[@jameshudson9437]

Nothing like the scrub of the old Gutbrush™ to clean out the cavity of a fish

[@NotTodayJezus]

We usually deep fry the parrot fish and use a lemon, salt and onion sauce to drizzle over it from my home on Guam i didnt know you can sashimi parrot fish! Were a 3 hour flight from Japan btw Terada San!

[@emperorod98]

[@shaikhsalimvlogs]

Who has got confused that they are watching travel thirsty

[@garytaylor1161]

I would love to try some parrotfish sushi and sashimi for Master Chef Hiroyuki-San!

[@matta406]

Watching this while waiting for my Fillet I Fish to get here from McDonalds. Life giveth and life taketh. Good afternoon.

[@ИгорьПросто-ч7ь]

Hiroyuki san greetings to you from Russia. I constantly watch your video and cook according to your recipes. in Thailand, I shot such fish on spearfishing. cooked them on the grill. I wish you good health and long life. I would like you to come to Russia for a master class among cooks of Japanese cuisine. Regards to you, Igor!

[@notrealy180217]

Watching this reminded me of the great American communist propaganda children's book; The Rainbow Fish.

[@SaltyRob]

you just did some "Travel Thirsty" filming there

[@jurassicsushi]

The Flesh of that parrot fish looks so clean and perfect. Beautiful fish both on the inside as well as the out. What an experience. Thank you both once again for sharing all these amazing trips and foods with your extended KZbin family.

[@Chofrizzy]

for some reason this video brought up an old childhood memory of me reading a book called the rainbow fish

[@emanf3]

nayr I think I remember that book

[@luciferslettuce]

That fried parrot fish looked amazing!

[@user-ro5cn8ih5o]

One of the best fish in the sea, the taste and the texture is absolutely second to non..

[@emperorod98]

X7 I agree! 👍🏽

[@paris-ml1gy]

I almost thought I was watching a Travel Thirsty video

[@brianleonard6025]

Good Afternoon Chef Terada, the Parrot Fish Sashimi looked good, however i've never seen the fish cleaned so well, I was impressed with preparing the Sashimi. The fried Parrot fish looked absolutely fantastic! If I'm not mistaken Parrot fish live on Crustaceans and Dead Coral in Coral reefs, they eat the dead coral and help promote new growth. They can actually help save our coral reefs. Thank you again for taking us with you on this fabulous trip to Japan. 😃🙏🐴🏇🐎 That is why they have such powerful jaws and a beak like mouth.

[@bluealiennetwork]

really enjoy your channel, love seeing the exotic sushi not see alot in the US.

[@vincenzosplate]

Wow these fishes look very very good 😍

[@flybyairplane3528]

HIRO, HELLO, I had NOT had parrot fish in many years,

[@BG-my7eg]

Fish: I heard you eat cockroaches. Hiro: Good afternoon.

[@nookiebrookie206]

That Kind of fish is much needed for the biodiversity of our ocean.. pls. See how important the parrot fish are.. 😢

[@yuppiekleine5550]

ray adrian carumba I saw these fish quite often when I was still diving years ago, they are so beautiful and fascinating, I could never eat one. I wonder if anybody would accept it if a parrot bird would be killed and be eaten, I guess not. My second thought is that the fish only lives in coral reefs, so how do they catch them without destroying the corals? Not every species should be catched and eaten.

[@nookiebrookie206]

Yuppie Kleine Exactly.. There’s always a limitation for consumption.. I hope someday those animals that are critically endangered and those species that has an impact in our biodiversity will soon end its consumption.. it just so sad to know that these beautiful creatures are making delicacy to others..

[@marcotolento1486]

Everything looks very delicious. But is that parrot fish a freshwater fish or salt water fish? Because I have freshwater parrot fish in my fish tank. Then I have as pets. But their own grow That big.

[@Martin-yf7sd]

Before viewing this channel I never used to eat sushi, or raw fish at all after watching this channel I now cant go a weekend without sushi and chill to his videos

[@carolynallisee2463]

I watch another channel which showcase sashimi, fish and other seafood, so when I clicked on this video I thought it was that channel. So I was greatly surprised ( and not a little confused) to see Hiro-san reflected in the steel backboard of the preparation area. That's when I checked and realised this was his video. I'll be looking closer at video descriptors from now on since it sounds like I've missed a few!

[@Pkdarkan]

Don’t get me wrong I am not a hater, I love your channel and fishing much as I like to eat them, but parrot fish shouldn’t be on menús.

[@ShadaeMastersAstrology]

I have tried but for some reason I just cannot seem to eat raw fish. I love sushi but my seafood inside has to be fully cooked. I watch others enjoy it, is it because I’m black and my culture has engrained in my head, well done is the only way 😭 😂

[@ALWhiteAuthor]

Friend of mine is a charter boat owner over in your neck of the woods. He had some drunken idiot college kids on his boat one time and they caught a parrot fish. One of them stuck his finger in it's mouth and it bit through the nail, the bone and all the way to the other side and chomped off the side of his fingertip. When a fish has a giant beak and eats coral it's entire life, you probably don't want to get too close to its mouth.

[@toomaskotkas4467]

Cutting the guts and spilling them all over the fish was very unprofessional of this fish cutter. That's why you have to be a trained a Sushi Chef.

[@הוגןאלוהים]

lol yea

[@tesustristus1656]

Hiro when he tastes something good: *hm* Hiro when he tasted the pork: (grinning) *hmhmhm* Me: Well now I want to eat that

[@erwinkurniawan4474]

Parrotfish : look at my beautiful sk... Nail Scrubber Thingy : Good afternoon

[@fredvonbreuer6998]

Poor Hiro has always to eat the biggest part of everything...and maybe getting a little fat by the time!

[@49ers1975]

i hope you guys have more vidoes of the trip......keep them coming..enjoying them..so use to just seeing your typical tuna and stuff..never seen this fish before....i got plans to go over there next year for the first time hopefully it will happen...

[@berndelignie8002]

What a great looking fish! Very nice description Hiro! Hopefully I can visit it once and take you as ly guide haha

[@thb77955]

Hiro, my friend, g11d aftern11n!!! You are the best food critic in the whole wide world! I ❤️ 🇯🇵and greetings from 🇩🇪!!!

So this chanel is like Travel Thirsty now with an eating reaction lol

[@derekblas4841]

I love to eat parrot fish..we eat that daily out here on GUAM..rigt

[@unsavedinfovol.1178]

How long we you guys be in Okinawa and will you be doing any fan meet and greets here?

[@elkiza10]

[@RankingIsHell]

Great video Chef Hiro! Wish I could eat that street food :D looks sooo good!

[@jenniferfedee1733]

I've been wanting to try parrot fish and now I'm going to because this looks delicious.

[@emmiller1678]

Here in the Philipines its illegal to catch it but people still do it.its endangered.

[@franciscorobles7679]

Even if is not good chef Terada you make it look good if is not good

[@blazin808rootz]

Try dat buggah Chinese style. Change your life.

[@christina2411]

I love how happy Hiro was to eat that pork.

[@Mr.Helper.]

I saw the camera mans hand ... I confirm he is not black

[@noufongei9307]

Thank you very much for sitting down to eat

[@ethandinh4312]

when hiro ate the katsu is the first time i’ve seen him react to a food besides saying “mm”

[@theactualdarthvader]

anyone else thought that the meat was gonna be blue? no? just me? k

[@at5389]

I really enjoy your shows☺ I have changed a lot of the way I cook and prepare foods. Keep up the good work and thanks.

[@2nd2none]

I love that fish market! Went there 3x a week when I was working at kadena ab!

[@tra_stay_winning]

This almost looks like 'Travel Thirsty'

[@CheezyDewitt]

Hiro got happy with that bite of Pork. Too funny!!!

[@Dsix7one]

My favorite fish in the world.

[@FOODANDTRAVELDESTINATIONS]

Yummy fresh seafoods! Who haven't eat the parrot fish before? :)

[@iggyvonkoopa]

parrot fish is high on my list of fish to eat

[@vudoodaddie]

No! Don’t fry it. Go all sashimi.

[@richardwigley]

Hiro: Good Afternoon Parrot fish :Good Afternoon

[@hanj31]

I heard with sushi/ sashimi small fish fresher the better but bigger fish it’s better like a week or two later

[@jonathanlee97]

Joshua 윤호 Han kinda true.. If tuna is too fresh youre gonna have a weird texture. Normally they age it for like 3 days. Not really 2 weeks lol.

[@a2thee270]

I use those same tweezers to take a leak

[@indirabenavides.4496]

Does this fish have any parasites?

[@patron40silver]

Very beautiful AND destructive fish.

[@flybyairplane3528]

patron40silver please kindly explain your claim, As a scuba diver I have seen then in the CAYMAN ISLANDS, & observed their eating habits, cheers from NJ

[@kurokumamaou818]

I told you guys I work in Okinawa and that’s a tourist price and there are definitely better places than that for Okinawa pork cutlet

[@gilberttran6722]

Parrot fish help coral btw

[@morrobayfishing5515]

Was in Okinawa as a kid. The diving was amazing. We'd camp on small islands off shore. I feel I grew up there. So many great food memories. Like vanilla bread off base.

[@제인-m3u]

[@jorgegarcia-yj6cn]

Travel thirsty copy

[@great-grandmakirk8828]

This was a very beautiful fish. What a pretty teal color. I never knew scales could be so large or that the color came from them. The oil this was cooked in looks very old and I don’t think I want anything cooked in that old oil. It still looks good and probably tastes great except for the old oil.

[@RuisuCantEatCheese]

These videos remind me of Travel Thirsty Channel. I like them a lot 😁

[@Nicole231327]

I’ve tried parrot fish and to be honest it was my favorite fish to eat but that was before i knew it was so important for the ecosystem because they clean the reefs. Now i respect this specie.

[@at5389]

I think you got that backwards, I think their beaks kill the coral reefs. (Pretty sure I read that somewhere)

[@wjgnkadfiawms1394]

@@at5389 Nope, they eat the dead coral and harmful algae in the reefs. You could've just typed that question into Google and have gotten your answer in 5 seconds.

[@Nicole231327]

A T it was you who got it backwards or didn’t read properly.

[@avhh357]

Hi again! Was just wondering if you’d recommend eating tilapia sashimi. Im from the philippines and i see live tilapia being sold in markets and groceries. Just wondering. By the way my first time being 60th liker of you videos haha awesome.

[@Hardmodeeverything3174]

Fish: it's an honor Hiro: good afternoon

[@dhrunishsoneri9735]

Parrot soo beautiful

[@foomp]

What's with the hot water at 5:15? Is that to semi-cook the skin?

[@BboyTvo]

Yes, lightly cooks the skin so you could eat the fish with the skin, skin has a lot of flavor.

[@steveshinkawa8116]

Good Afternoon Hiro ...! love your show... I'm kinda new to your channel but I am now a loyal fan...I was born and raised in Hawaii and in Hawaii we cooked them on the grill,baked,steamed and poached but the parrot fish reminded me of lobster in a way .. the flrsh texture is firm and white and has a very mild taste .. thank you for an awesome show.. Good luck and health to you....loyal fan Steve

[@reborn727]

You know that pork tonkatsu is bomb when it makes Hiro chuckle.

[@seemslegit6203]

Well i mean, port cutlet is fucking bomb.

[@BronsonWally]

Who's doing the actual cutting and cleaning of the fish ? Obviously it is not Hiro .

[@BetweenTwoForks]

You know it's tasty when Hiro involuntarily laugh at how good the tonkatsu is!!

[@keithk8698]

Hey camera man what’s your name? And what do you do besides film and eat? And have you ever eaten anything that you didn’t care for or would never eat again? Between Hiro’s cooking and your filming. You guys can make videos for a long time. Keep up the good work guys. Love the videos you put out. 👍🏼🤙🏼❤️

[@watermanone7567]

Nice video, background noise pretty loud. Thanks, looks like great fish.

The fish has faced many Afternoons in its lifetime.. but not THE legendary Afternoon. RIP fish-san

What’s up with the camera guy being too scared to be on camera always

[@mikey2kus]

its because he doesnt want his family to see that he is dating hiro
