Yonekyuuhonten (米久本店) Restaurant in Tokyo
Japanese sukiyaki is one of the well known Japanese dishes - and you can eat everything from budget sukiyaki, to high end sukiyaki with extremely high quality ingredients. This 100 year old restaurants is somewhere in-between, making use of high quality ingredients, like insanely marbled beef, but not as expensive as some Japanese sukiyaki restaurants in Tokyo I came across. But along with the food, one of the main reasons I wanted to eat here is because it’s an old heritage restaurant that’s stood the test of time.
As you enter the sukiyaki restauarnt, you take off your shoes and leave them at the front of the restaurant, and when you enter, they beat the drum. You can then choose to sit in one of the many dining rooms, and they have both traditional Japanese style seating on the ground, in addition to tables as well. We got a traditional Japanese table on the ground.
For the sukiyaki, it’s best to order sets of ingredients, and you can either choose the normal beef or the special beef. I went with the special beef because of that insane marbling, but on second thought I probably would have ordered one normal beef and one special beef.
The soup is cooked on a griddle on your table, and you boil all the ingredients including leek and mung-bean noodles. But by all means the highlight is the beef, which is cut in thin strips and was some of the most insanely marbled beef I’ve ever seen. The beef was pretty much mostly fat, but it was so good. When you eat Japanese food sukiyaki, you dip each bite into raw egg as your sauce.
Yonekyuuhonten (米久本店) Restaurant is an amazing Japanese food restaurant in Tokyo, and it’s truly a piece of Tokyo culinary history.

[@boonjooioh1212]

I really admire Ying. she helps to take care of the baby while filming the video. What a great wife u have, Mark.

[@megasunny2254]

Boon Jooi Oh ื

[@ellimae1548]

Boon Jooi Oh yes And I notice the nice poncho she had on while, I assume she was 🤱.

[@ashtonpaugh1189]

She's amazing to watch. She truly supports Mark and his endeavors and the way she is with Micah, from the beginning to later videos is just beautiful. I love how she nurses with zero inhibitions. I love how we see more of her in his newer vlogs. I just love seeing them all together.

[@user-kq8ok4qy6t]

I like her husband Yang.

[@boomshakalaka7353]

Had?

[@maxnaran2852]

His tombstone will say: "OH WOW" -MARK WIENS

[@vesper3215]

It will say: ¨I was Rare kinda guy¨

[@forteandblues]

Last words- oh wow

[@SharkBait2o9]

And it'll be leaning towarda it's right side.

[@taylenday]

"Oh wow! This grave! It's so earthy tasting, and the texture is really just, out of this world. The way the mud and the sand mix so well with the grass, oh it just, literally melts in your mouth. Unbelievable"

[@iamdew]

And the tombstone is tilted to the right

[@Foreverproud04]

As a mother í truly.truly hope u spoil Ying every now and then..Having to work the camera..feed and calm Micah and waiting for you to eat first is nothing short of AMAZING!!!..God bless Ying and treat her well!!

[@kongchho]

but you're assuming Mark doesn't equally take care of micah off camera. They're a team but Mark just appears on camera because it's his show.

[@bobsingh5521]

ajalvarado86 She’s shy

[@trueindeed1569]

That's her job in their relationship. I hope she keeps respecting him and playing her part.

[@olgamolina1709]

Phil Langley seriously. She’s his wife,partner and friend. Jesus

[@trueindeed1569]

@@olgamolina1709 ok. The amount of props she's getting for doing her job inside their relationship is extreme. She feeding their baby and holding a camera sometimes. Good but no parades needed

[@J235304204]

The thing I admire Mark the most is that he can talk and film when eating food like this. I always wanted to take pictures of good food that I eat, but will always end up only remembering to take the pictures after everything was eaten..... lol

[@AmalPali]

Loooool

[@duallove6909]

For anyone disgusted from the raw egg dip, get a good organic egg and try it this way and you'll be surprised of how deliciously creamy and velvety it is without any fowl smell or sliminess. Give something a try before blindly judging it.

[@BeastOrGod]

I don't recommend it though, the Japanese poultry industry might have eliminated Salmonella because of the demand, but the rest of world dfoesn't have those standards.

[@ashtonpaugh1189]

I think, especially for Americans, it it just unconventional. We've been taught not to eat raw eggs. But we've also been told one year that eggs bring longevity, energy and health but the next year they are one of the worst substances to consume and will kill you. So it's not very consistent on the US end. I won't lie, it kind of makes my stomach churn but Mark isn't the only one to eat this way. It's common and very excepted in other countries but one thing that others have to remember is, the eggs really are different in some countries. They are treated and raised and butchered very differently. People used to raise their eyebrows at raw beef and fish and even here in the US, it is now acceptable to the masses. I think people need to be more aware of other cultures, their breeding and raising habits of the food they eat and respect that we all see things differently.

[@snifey2233]

How organic?

[@keahithefieryone8513]

@Thanatos Ragnarok The same way you take pleasure in your own arrogance, you know, your PityPartyForOne ...... hehe

[@raeycharles8389]

One word...salmonella

[@MsScorpyscorp]

Never seen anyone, so happy faced, while having raw eggs coated meat. Hats off to Mark Weins. 🎩

[@georgeblunnywashington7277]

It’s actually really good!! As long as the farm was tested and not positive for salmonella it’s safe to eat too

[@ellimae1548]

MsScorpyscorp love that he is not afraid to try all types of food, which we in the Western world would never think of eating.

[@msbrownbeast]

Eating raw egg is safe in Japan. The chickens are raised in much better conditions than those Tyson factories in America, and the eggs are all disinfected before packaging.

[@chopstucks3228]

Sukiyaki was my first authentic Japanese food that i had, watching this video reminded me of that first savoury experience. Thanks Mark for the upload! Cheers!

[@organicgrains]

Your wife is so amazing. Even though she's hardly ever on camera, you can see her overwhelming support in part because she sits there patiently filming while you eat all this good food XD.

[@organicgrains]

@nimmivids not necessarily. Traveling internationally is very stressful, with a child even more so. With the added stress of filming and editing AND working together, which some people have a hard time with because they need time apart. You can really tell they are a team, and that's neat I think.

[@mozespredator]

Mark, i am one of your biggest fans, i follow you when you had 700 subscribers, enjoy life my dear friend.. greetz from belgium !

MARBLING INTENSIFIES

[@tyffanii1]

Man, watching this channel makes me regret that I have had a stomach surgery, because there looks like there is so many places I want to go, and food I want to eat, but I can only eat about a handful amount of food.

[@feralmagick7177]

So go with a group and everybody get one thing to share. That way you arent eating alot, everyone gets some, and everyone is paying for their fair share. It also makes it easier to try multiple things in a day if you are never full at any point because you are only eating a small bit at a time.

[@fattoadsfriends]

You make us so hungry with all the food your eating! Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Thai food are so appetizing! They make my mouth water!

[@maryleialoha2843]

Yes you are! A rare kind of guy!

[@loidatakei6143]

God bless you Mark, and your family also 💖

[@misslarisha]

Sukiyaki is my most favorite Japanese dish. Definitely requested my host family to make it for me when I was there a billion years ago after they asked what dish they wanted me to make for them. This takes me back! Thank you for sharing! Super jealous!

[@zelda1]

That was awesome Mark. The food looked out of this world good. I am enjoying this Japan food trip immensely. Keep up the great work. Take care.

[@kevinjoe3578]

5:54 "I'm a rare kind of guy..." Yes you are indeed Mark! Love your food blogs, keep on making! :)

[@onlybryan47_]

Really enjoy the way you describe the flavors! Thanks Mark 🥇🎗

[@leomartin1603]

I just FROZE the most adorable shot of Micah and Mark.

[@LA-di1zk]

You and Ying have done a great job with raising Micah. He rarely cries or makes noise while on camera

[@nitafields9629]

Mika is so cute and adorable!!

[@harleymama4097]

Nita Fields shows you can have family and still enjoy what you do!

[@angie2591]

Nita Fields he was so cute trying to grab Mark's receipt at the end lol

[@mikasiereveld3124]

Thankyou

[@seeunkim7086]

I love your face when you make sound 'hummm'! And this video's korean subtitle is absolutely perfect! I don't know who made this, that person is best Korean-English user.

[@jimclark9826]

I always enjoy it when the whole family is along. Micah, of course, is my/everyone's favorite.

[@xvnbm]

Mark: Is that a one biter? Me: No way in hell! Mark: I think it is! Everytime.

[@amakaegesimba1174]

My thoughts exactly'😂😂😂

[@aliceboss3134]

It's interesting to see what various cultures find "disgusting". For some it's raw eggs or meat, for others it's entrails, for others a certain kind of meat (rat or horse for example)... Never judge by just your own taste, experience or tradition. What you find strange is normal for your neighbour :)

[@gabrielthompson1072]

Said well Gina, Marry me!

[@MrAngryGnome]

Gina LaFionda well said.

[@Mandragara]

For me it's pumpkin. Pumpkin = pig food.

[@aliceboss3134]

Mandragara that's funny! Where are you from?

[@aliceboss3134]

Gabriel Thompson already taken but thank you! :D

[@joannewright7952]

You inspire me to try new things all the time. sending lots of love to you and your family

[@gulfbreeze76]

There has never been a person more suited for a food Vlog than Mark.

[@nofosho3567]

I've lived in Tokyo for almost half of my life. Sukiyaki is good anytime but there's really nothing better than like, late fall, early December... Clear clean, cold air, a warm sweater, pint of beer, and a full nabe of wagyu sukiyaki, especially with chrysanthemum greens. Autumn, I can't wait for you!

[@cee_el]

I never enjoyed sukiyaki because I thought it was too simple but now I think it's simply good. And the raw egg is needed.

[@TampaJay]

Man, I wish it was dinner time here! Thanks Mark, you're awesome

[@Davidsbeenhere]

food looks amazing!

[@tony2767]

Another fantastic video Mark! I found your channel about a month ago and I have watched most of your videos since then. I always look forward to new content and you never disappoint! Love how you always include your wife and son, gives it such a great spin. Your expressions are so genuine and I can now immediately tell how much you enjoy something before your trademark dip to the right. How do you keep in shape eating so much?

[@user-je2bn4sc2q]

Sukiyaki, it was delicious! I am also my favorite！

[@fattoadsfriends]

I'm mad! I was watching the baby and you just took him off! He's so cute!

[@phiology1983]

Awesome video Mark, never been to Japan. Now I'm making it priority, food and culture is so amazing! THANKS FOR sharing!

[@MalReaver]

I get so excited to see the proper way to do a dish! Love that you explore and ask and tell us how food is done in the traditional way!

[@deepanshukarmakar2770]

The baby is so cute and adorable........!

[@kguy123456]

The receipt they gave you is called a 'Ryosyusho'. It is given to people who later expense whatever they bought to their company. You can ask any shop or restaurant (or even taxi!) to issue this special kind of receipt. It makes a nice souvenir!

[@anishthakkar2545]

Undoubtedly one of the best episode, Trevel vlog of migrationology.. you almost convinced me to have beef but unfortunately I am vegetarian! I guess it was very beautiful to watch that bubble, sizzler kind of dish which convinced me.. anyways thanks mark, it was awesome show!:)

[@lauraautry6992]

Ying has got to be the most precious woman . She is always there to help and especially with Micah she is a gem. I hope she gets to enjoy the delicious food like you do ❤️❤️❤️

[@s123khan5]

I love how mark just keeps smiling all the time and his excitement when he tries food it's amazing...keep up tha awesome work mark and show us more of mica he is so damn cute...❤️❤️❤️

[@foodie8122]

Sukiyaki is one of my favorites along with hot pot and Korean BBQ. Keep up the great job on entertaining videos!

[@cappyhantz]

I love how you didn't forget veggies.

[@bcwolters]

That look on your face at the first bite, described completely how the meal tasted. Loved the vid!

[@cybergothika6906]

This is one of my favorite videos I come sometimes to see. The attendee lady is a human bucket of cuteness and politeness. I need to go to Japan.

[@anns3125]

Sukiyaki is one of my favourites. Great video!

What a meal can i have some of your signature black shirt

[@onmyway9749]

Japan looks so cool. I'd definitely love to visit someday.

[@ishmelo8811]

Knowing that you're enjoying all those food with your family just makes it look even better. Cheers to more video! Hi to the wifey and baby!

[@kross2011]

love the video, keep them coming. Mika is growing up so fast, he is so adorable.

[@sylvia3702]

After watching your video's for nealy a year now i have to make my first comment: I LOVE these Japanese food video's, i would like to get through the screen and eat what you are eating at this moment. oooh man! I also loved the Eel video. I'm making notes for when we get to Japan. :P

[@purberri]

I recognized the restaurant as soon as you walked in. Friends took me there this past April. Food was great.

[@camolynx]

the restaurant was so traditional and inspiring, The people was so kind and helpful , Glad you and your family had a lovely time Mark ,take care

[@mcoycobain1805]

Up you go!!!

[@KryzwygCalvin]

One of the things that I missed about Japan would be the shopping arcades like the one this restaurant is located at. I stayed at an accommodation located near to one of these the last time I visited Japan and remembered how clean and peaceful these shopping arcades are. I love walking down the arcades and observing the Japanese people live their lives. I find it interesting that they play music throughout the arcades. I guess it just makes that shopping experience more pleasant. Thank you for the videos, Mark! Another restaurant worth trying the next time I visit the country.

[@rbzsfg]

Thank you for this video. Now I know where I'm going on my Tokyo Trip next year.

[@wingondemand]

Your baby will grow up as a gourmet genius!

[@cappyhantz]

Micah is so amazing. He has more travel miles than some of us. I love the joy you show trying everything. Ying is also amazing because she is always smiling and giggling. Best family I know on KZbin. I bet Micah will use chopsticks soon.

[@xVAC4NTx]

Elise Hantz you don’t ever see them off camera but okay you sheep

[@rebelpiggy]

I have only just started watching Mark's videos, but one of the things I look forward to now is Mark seeing Micah and saying, "Oh. Hey Micah." I find it so cute. That kid is gonna have some great experiences with a mom and dad like his.

[@feralphil1198]

to bad he wont remember anything of his travels lol :D

[@ajeyaran1]

Wow, this is really cool! Definitely enjoyed the video! This kinda reminded me of the Japanese dish that Mark tried three years ago but the restaurant at that time told him not to do any more filming. I don't know if anybody here remembers seeing that video, but I think this one is a lot more enjoyable!

[@ashlynn4716]

Love your consistent energy ! Makes it fun to watch :)

[@wickedmcjagger7911]

I love your reaction men, you look like a kid when you react

[@skipsaur]

Thank you for this video, we ended up going to this restaurant on our recent first trip to Japan on this recommendation and it was every bit as delicious as we hoped, having watched this months ago. And now we can rewatch it for the nostalgia and memories! We love your videos!

[@Ludawig]

This, shabu shabu, una-don, and sushi- I could eat for the rest of my life and never get tired of it.

[@lissalai]

Micah sticking his tongue out in 13:30 my heart cannot handle this

I so wanted to put my hand they the screen to take the beef out of the broth! I was going to say how it’s over cooked, but you found that out. Either way. Omg....YUMMY

[@edwardyong3768]

Hey Mark , awesome work with your videos.

[@Eppert85]

Never been so excited to watch someone ask "is this a one biter" answer themselves and then take it all in one bite. One love
