Go to nordvpn.com/lifewhereimfrom and if you go for the 2-year plan you get an additional 4 months. It’s also risk-free with Nord’s 30-day money-back guarantee. Filming at Suzuki Soba was so fun and smooth. Everyone there were so helpful and the food was great too!

Hi Greg, Ate at Suzuki Soba this past October and we had a great time. Although they spoke less English than we did Japanese, they went out of their way to serve us. The owners were very accomodating and Ken-san got so exicted when we mentioned this video. Even some patrons that spoke a little English gave us suggestions. The food was great and it was a wonderful experience venturing into the less "touristy" parts of Tokyo. They even seemed surprised that foreign tourists, although Japanese, found our way off the beaten path to their humble restaurant. I presume you live in the area, so if you see them again, tell them "domo arigatogozaimasu" from the tourists from Hawaii whom they helped find their way. And thank you for pointing us in their direction! We'll be back in October.

This episode very nostalgic for me. I was born in 1960 Tokyo, and raised in Japan, and I remember the noodle shop owner's son being the delivery guy riding his Honda Cub. One time when I got under the Army housing are fence, and wandered the countryside, the delivery guy was driving by so I waved, and he stop to pick me up, and he took me to his parents shop, and they fed me free of charge. My siblings preferred the curry rice plates, but I always ordered the cold somen noodles. None of that exists now, sad.

It's not the restaurants that are endangered. It's the third party delivery services. Small restaurants are all over Uber, and those not on it can always join, taking on Uber's exorbitant fees and draconian policies against its vendors (Uber is brutal against restaurants but extremely friendly to its own customers), but the third party delivery services will be put out of business, as every restaurant transitions entirely to Uber.

@@KendallM0219 As opposed to figuratively highway robbery? Robbery is taking people's things without their consent. When one is about to order, when they see the final amount, all they have to do is hit "Cancel" if they're not happy. No one is forcing them. I'm not saying Uber fees are fair, far from it. I'm just saying they are not robbing anyone. They offer something for a fee. Unhappy about this? Pick up the phone and order directly at the restaurant.

I've visited places like this a handful of times in Japan and every time the staff is very helpful and friendly despite me speaking basically no Japanese. That said, every single time it is pretty damn intimidating to enter one of these places especially when there is a plethora of more easy to access/order restaurants all around. Soba is one of my favorite types of food in Japan for sure, I love how it can feel much lighter compared to udon or ramen.

I am a student in Sendai, Japan, and I work part-time in food delivery. I use the same type of delivery device shown in this video, which is a durable second-hand model. This device has been incredibly helpful for my job. I mainly use Wolt, and occasionally Uber Eats for deliveries. The bag fits perfectly with the delivery device featured in the video, conveniently fitting in the space where the soba is placed, making it easy to load and unload. Since I started using this delivery device, I haven’t received any complaints about damaged goods, and I plan to continue using it in the future. Also, I want to express my appreciation for this wonderful video, which highlights the importance of quality delivery equipment in our work.

I was wondering how the real dishes come into play (like do people keep them or?) so glad you answered this! I figured it would be way too expensive to just let customers keep the dishes but I didn’t expect that you can just leave them out for the driver to take them. I suppose he can just knock to the door and you can give him the dishes too. That’s really eco-friendly, even considering the scooter (can always use an electric one I imagine). These people all seem very sweet too, and the delivery driver especially seems like fun guy.

In my neighbourhood, there is one chinese food restaurant that still accepts phone-call delivery and has survived for at least 5 years through covid, online uber eats, etc. And my family is their usual customer. Heck, they even already memorized my home address 😂 And all charming parts were exactly in this video. They bravely deliver during light rain (most of online orders wont), they only accept cash (no biggie, give them the spare changes if they dont have it), and most of all, it is FAR cheaper that online apps (i have to pay 10% more for each menu, which aint included delivery fee, app tax, etc). That chinese food resto is the only 1 of 3 reasons why my house still have traditional telephone. God bless their business ❤

Japan has their own specialty in the food which is called "Shokunin-waza". In Korea there were many of delicious restaurant in the past but now it has been so standardized that most of restaurant`s flavor is same and I guess that this is from too much competition in our society. Korean people are really obsessed in money and they get solution by famous entrepreneurs or chefs like Paik Jong Won and it is also one of the reasons of standardization.

Thanks for sharing the location. I love visiting places with cultural significance because I don't want such a gem to disappear. Will patronize the restaurant on next visit, even at the cost of gesture language (^ ^)

I wish I lived there so I could go to this place often. The people who work and run it seem like the best part of the experience.

Wow, why is Japan such a cool country! Thank you for another fun & informative video! I was especially impressed by how they used to carry the dishes on their shoulders while riding a bicycle.

Another great vid, Greg! How can Suzuki stay in business with only 100 meals a day? That means they are grossing about $1200-$1500 max per day, which means they are only taking home about $400-$425 net pay per week.

The delivery companies when they first started took around 20-25%. I used to work at a restaurant and helped set up the relationship. We were able to use our busyness and the fact that not a lot of restaurants in our area were set up to get the fee reduced to 18%. When opening another location they quoted us 33% but I negotiated it down to 23%. The restaurants that are getting screwed over are the ones that don't want to negotiate with the apps, apps are a great way to increase your revenue

I'd be tempted to go try it, but it's rather far away from any mass transit.
