[@Silver_surferrr]

Fr when im watching the show i always tell marcille to just have some balls or something and eat it, now i share her pain after looking at the gator meat😂

[@CooperGal24]

I've seen Duck Dynasty, where the family would make some dishes with frog meat, so I think they'd probably like to try the "Dragon Claw" dish.

[@cronoz-sensei4259]

Honestly hats off to them for actually using gator meat of all things on a menu to get as close to the feeling of eating a red dragon as possible within reality, thats genuinely some insane dedication. I really wish I was able to visit Japan and go here, but alas I wont have the money for at least another five years if not more time. I can only hope they make a permanent Dungeon Meshi café because the show really deserves it. Also fun fact for Emily, the part of the gator thats "commonly" used is only the tail meat, since its somewhere between a chicken breast meat and white fish. If you somehow end up in Florida for whatever reason, Florida probably has gator tail recipes down better than anywhere else so might be worth trying if you feel curious and brave enough. Other parts of the animal are rather gamey and tough, people usually dont go for them when trying to make a gator dish. Just the fact they made the gator leg edible and not taste absolutely overpowering is to me absolutely an achievement on the part of whoever made the menu and makes me wonder how would one prepare the rest of the gator in a way that brings out the best of the meat and moderates the leanness and gaminess of it....sorry my inner Laios got out for a second. Anyways, absolutely amazing video, Im hyped to see more colab café videos, especially now that youve set the expectations high with the teaser.

honestly gator is fantastic. You can get it cheap in Florida and Louisiana

[@ChuckLi-xh3sj]

For gator the good parts are the tail and sirloin, the legs are probably the worst for eating. Though I can see why they picked it, for the aesthetics.

[@nujevad28]

It's hard to imagine that all of their gator meat dishes only have feet, they'd have to go through a lot of gators just for that.

[@stefthorman8548]

@@nujevad28 not hard to source, since nearby countries farm gators for their just the hide, so they likely sell worthless things like the feet, in bulk and cheaply

[@notatallfunctional]

⁠@@nujevad28 I can at least assure you the rest of the gator was not wasted. The feet were probably more affordable to get from the gator farm they ordered from.

[@davidmaxwell4696]

@@notatallfunctional Honestly I'm sort of curious where they sourced it from, importing it would've been a big expense and I don't know if there's enough of a market for alligator related products in Japan for there to be a domestic farm. Either way though, using alligators to stand-in for the red dragon was a genius choice on the part of the chefs (Even if it wasn't necessarily the best cut of gator lol)

"I really felt for Marcille in this moment" That Dragon Leg being actual lizard meat is marketing genius. It's disgusting, which was the point of eating weird food in the show.

[@unfortunatefish3322]

Fun fact! Alligators (and all other crocodilians) aren't actually lizards! While in the reptile group they are closer related to birds than modern lizards (which means that if you consider crocodilians to be reptiles then you must accept that birds are also reptiles lol). The reptile group consists of lizards, snakes, turtles (+tortoises), crocodilians, birds, technically dinosaurs, and tuataras (which are also not lizards). Lizards and snakes are the closest related groups and are both in the Squamata group, they're basically cousins as snakes are essentially just highly specialised lizards.

​@@unfortunatefish3322Ty Laios.

[@sboinkthelegday3892]

Since we are infodumping, Apari is likely named after Appare which is an old Japanese word, but people love it for basically being a pun with modern high fashion 'apparel', in Japanese where dropping the final 'ru' is pretty standard. See the joke is that this foreign word is already a Japanese word with almost the same meaning. a similar thing is words like 'nikuman' buns where the 'man' really means like the 'knot' in 'doughnut'. but that -man ending is a big reason why words like 'salaryman' blew up in Japan. Adding -man to the end makes it, like, a thing. Which is coincidentally very similar to uses like "fireman". If you're wondering why manga like dragon ball has all these food names, it's part of that. Being named a dish is a bit like a superhero name.

[@Savanna-e9m]

I'm from Florida, where gator meat is actually a pretty common restaurant item. So I object to it being described as "disgusting" lol

A Dungeon Meshi food collab is quite the no brainer to make more of. Hope more happen, maybe even outside of Japan. I didn’t notice you made shorts. I should try checking them out as I make them on the regular lately myself.

[@L0ver0fHumanity]

Teeechnically not a themed cafe, but it's meant to be a cafe based off an actual one within the media if you're ever in the area to visit Cafe Cinnamon, i'd love to hear your thoughts on it! It's a permanent cafe meant to emulate the one in the game Ensemble Stars. They occasionally sell themed drinks (if some sorta huge event is happening) and also serve alcoholic beverages!

[@SuperPuffXD]

I was very happy to see that you decided to continue making these in video form! I don't watch shorts, so I was fully emotionally prepared for the last video to be the last I'd see of it. That said, I don't really have a preference for how many you include per video. They could all be shorter one-cafe videos like this one and I'd still be happy to watch, and I also like having multiple together to watch all at once. Glad to see you're finding a way to make them in a way that works for you.
