Since I was a kid I never liked Mondays. As an adult I still don’t like Mondays. I don’t think that will ever change. On the bright side, there are 6 other days of the week to enjoy 😊

Thank you Jimmy, not only does your content make me happy but I see how it has been improving. Love the places you visit and enjoy watching you eat all the delicious food. It’s nice to know people are so nice everywhere you go. Keep it up!

the karaage bowl was great value just 9$ for that much food is crazy

[@annel82]

Your mental health awareness is icing on the top over the food review (& beautiful guests *cough*). 6 months into anxiety recovery & understanding nervous system sensitization & its effects toward mental health. Unbelievable journey! Regain 3kg + added another 3kg (thanks to your channel!), happier acknowledging my past upbringing & not resisting any emotions. To respond life with courage!

[@Christ0pher]

[@YehtyTV]

Went to the Sumo Tonkatsu place when I traveled to Japan, surprisingly had a little wait at the time. My god was it delicious, definitely one of if not the best I've ever tried 🤤

[@GoodGollyMissMolly763]

My friend showed me your channel and let me just say I fell in love with your content. I just subscribed and I'm going on a Jimmy Kim marathon for the rest of the night! ❤

[@shadowhawk]

The big portion food video is finally here.. I enjoyed it. Saw a video on that tonkatsu place somewhere and always wonder how they got the meat to cook through, now i know... now it sounds good because it's like the best of both worlds (slow cook and deep fried) meeting

[@Mudskipper9876]

Thank you so much for addressing depression and anxiety, including a resource to help. That is thoughtful. Enjoy your sense of humor and bravery regarding large quantities of food.

[@AsianIsMe]

Glad you got to try Pommier! And I agree it's not the best food I've ever had in Japan, but it's worth the value! It's a favorite of people who live nearby since it is a lower income area.

Maaan all these meals look so good! I don’t think it’s expensive at all, it’s pretty in line with US prices for that portion, might even be cheaper in Japan compared to US.

[@manimanibooboo]

American here, Southerner & I this just made me realize how the fat ass portions here in the States are freakishly huge elsewhere. ..as are we. New subscriber. Great video!

[@lashallure4634]

Yes. South African living in the uk. I travel often for work to the US. Portion size in the US is really large. I love the food but hate the waste I end up not eating. My culture is that you eat everything on your plate. That just does not work in the US. lol. Some places in the UK are also the same. Especially Sunday lunches. Fine dining is better but pricy. In any case, US has the best food.

Junk food and obesity have become big business, so it's expected

I’m convinced Jimmy just lives in Japan. Like he has a Korean apartment but in JP with how often he posts videos in JP

[@Kasumi891]

This might be good for my mental health, but it sure isn't good for my stomach! This food looks so delicious!!!

[@lyndonbridges1523]

Been watching a few of your videos. I can say with confidence, that your take on these types of videos is most certainly fresh and entertaining. I grew out of my other YT channels like Strictly Dumpling, Food Ranger and others because their content just became too bland in the last few years, for me. I sincerely hope that you continue giving us great contents (and innuendos, lol). Can say that you’ll hit 1 million subscribers pretty soon. Kudos!

For those wondering there is a video dedicated to the last shop somewhere I can't remember where I saw it but it strictly about the shop and owner

[@tainanking]

that rice for the eel punked us all. Though, I can't it's surprising. Imagine it being some kind of soy or fried rice paired with the fatty salty and sweet eel. That's overkill and Japanese tend to know how to balance their flavors

[@WallyCooksEverything]

Jimmy next time you in Japan how about checking out a sumo wrestling school. It was fun watching when you visited the Thai boxing school with Senchai.

[@jimmykimtv]

I think that could be fun!

[@jadelynn1703]

Tonkatsu and unagi are two things I really want to try. These looked delicious uncle Jimmy. Thank you for taking us around and showing us awesome food!

[@skengels]

tonkatsu is easy to make at home if you're okay with deep frying! just be sure to pound the pork chop before to make it tender. Unagi you have to buy, lol

[@jadelynn1703]

@@skengels I might try to make tonkatsu someday, but deep frying does make me nervous haha. No where near where I live sells unagi, but I will travel a couple hours away eventually to try it at a sushi place. Have you tried unagi? Is it as tasty as KZbin makes it seem?

[@skengels]

@@jadelynn1703 if you use a pan with sides about 3 inches high (like a cast iron skillet) and a bit of oil (like 3/4 of an inch) it’s less scary and uses less oil too! If you’re good with wooden chopsticks, they’re actually the best for deep frying because they don’t rip the batter off like tongs can and you can check the temperature of the oil with them (press one end of the chopstick onto the bottom of the pan, the temp is good when little tiny bubbles come out). When you put the meat or veg into the pan, lay it down away from you, towards the wall or whatever, that way any splatter goes away from you. Tonkatsu batter is: -season the meat with salt and pepper -thin layer of flour -dunk in mixed egg (no water or milk needed, leftover egg can be microwaved for the dog lol) -plop into panko and press to make sure it’s well coated. I get thin cut boneless pork chops and pound the sh*t out of them so they’re nice and soft, also cook very fast, like 3-4 mins per side. If the outer is pretty dry without water you shouldn’t get much splatter at all! Lol, YES the eel is SO good 🥴. Definitely worth making a trip for!!

[@jadelynn1703]

@skengels I'm gonna screenshot your comment so I can try and cook it myself haha. Thank you !

Katsudon Chiyomatsu was quite literally the best meal I've had in Japan (I've only been to Japan once though, but I went to Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka). It's crazy to say that a bowl of fried pork over rice is the best meal I've had in a country known for their beef and seafood, but this Katsudon was really that good. The 1.5 hours queue was worth it!

[@dennythedavinchi3832]

Price-wise, better to order several side dishes. That makes enough portions and about $5 cheaper than those restaurants. An unusual thing about Japan compares to other countries, buying big portions doesn't cut the price but is way more expensive.

These portions aren't uncommon in America, which wouldn't be a problem by itself, but us folk in American are pretty much all forced to drive cars to get around instead of being able to walk. Eating stuff this high in calories is pretty harmless if you can also burn the calories off. God, I'm so jealous of countries with good public transportation that are relatively safe to walk around in. 😓
