Spending 100$ in a Japanese Izakaya

[@TokyoCreativePlay]

Have you ever visited Hanbey or a Japanese izakaya before? Let us know in the comments down below!

[@teruphoto]

It's probably relatively less crowded now. When tourism opens up again it'll get chock full of tourists vying for IG fodder. Last time I went was 2019 and it got super packed by 6pm.

[@BobbyDazzler888]

0:23 Sarah is good at that

[@chrisyravenconlin]

It looks so tasty and fun! It would be great for my birthday when I finally visit. Do they have any food for someone who is vegetarian and gluten free? (My wife, not me - I’d eat everything on your table.)

[@Domspun]

I didn't get to go on my last trip. Will be a must on my next one, whenever that happen.

[@TheLostrocks]

A certain chris would be delighted to be at a hanbey

[@-DirtyShoes]

"I am also in many pieces" ..my therapist having a bad day. $100 for food/drink for 5 people?? Just unheard of in California. WISH I could go to Hanbey!

[@bebazZz]

Shiori saying don't worry cause she'll order a homerun-sized beer made laugh so loud for some reason. She's so cute 😆❤ 1:46

[@Domspun]

It's hilarious, Shiori is wild!

[@mizusenshisongs]

That seems very like her. I've seen other videos with her and she likes beer a lot. Still that mug was huge!

[@Don_Giovanni]

It's kinda comical that the shortest person orders the largest drink. 😂

[@carolineb7127]

I would take the bread crusts, soak them in some beaten eggs then fry them and make mini french toasts :)

[@dianelipson5420]

I like the cut of your jib lady. 🤤

[@stephanieok5365]

Ohh or bread pudding!

[@Vlidery13]

My exact thought! 😂 I almost made French toast from watching this but it's already 11pm so maybe tomorrow lol

[@ProtoMarcus]

French toast Bread pudding Croutons Bread Sticks _(herbs and cheese)_ Cinnamon sticks Bread crumbs The possibilities are endless! Well, maybe not endless, but... Plentiful!

[@Biblioblade573]

Love that you put everyone's favorites from the end on their intro cards!!!

[@AfroInJPN]

My love for Hanbey knows no bounds~! Absolute 10/10 izakaya

[@edvela3865]

I’d definitely love to try that agepan! Sarah and Emma definitely hyped it up!!! Loved Shiori’s massive beer🍺!!! Also, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO EMMA!! 🥳🎉🎈😆😆

[@thomasbecker9676]

It's like the scene in The Prancing Pony; it's just a pint, but Shiori is hobbit-sized.

[@MrMarvelMatt]

I genuinely love how tc videos have text EVERYWHERE like a Korean/Japanese video 🤣 awesome video as always 🥰🥰

[@soju81]

Thank you so much. I really wanna go there when I visit Japan.

[@dmweibel7423]

Looks like a fun to eat at place. Happy birthday Emma!

[@x73v]

This makes me miss Japan, love that retro looking style 🤩

[@xyanide1986]

Yeah that place is great, good fun

[@xAlbinopiratex]

Shiori looks so pretty with her hair tied up 😊

[@didriksen86]

The place looks so cosy!

[@dianelipson5420]

OMG we want to see you guys go to all of these hanbei, especially the ones with the living room.

[@Crazt]

I used to "teach" conversional English in Hiroshima. One of the "students" boss would often join us for dinner after class, couldn't speak English, didn't care to learn but loved to join us for dinner. He always dropped the first $100 and we covered the rest.

[@TheCreepypro]

nice to see the crew sharing a meal together food always tastes better when you eat with others I want to eat everything you guys showed but probably the different breads the most as a fellow bread lover

[@greenquartz]

It's like the Japanese equivalent of Cracker Barrel kind of! Simple, classic food and being surrounded by vintage decor and advertising. 😋

[@applesandoranges9916]

I’ve never thought about it that way😂 miss the blueberry pancakes

[@ericklein6796]

I feel like I would have an amazing time in an atmosphere like that with friends. I’ve never been to Japan (or in a proper izakaya anywhere for that matter) but it is number one on my bucket list.

[@Waywren]

ya'll are ADORABLE and that looked like so much fun!

[@silverian]

Katanuki sound like game from Squid Game. I remember that main hero got very difficult shape and then the way how he finally got shape out without breaking the original.

[@littlegiantshiori1410]

Hanbei Mecha Osusume Desu! This izakaya is everywhere in Japan so visit one of them and hit a homerun like me!

[@DonQwaf]

AHHH I love Hanbey!!!! There is one in Toyama and Kanazawa! The food is so good!!

[@tankeryy1566]

im late but happy birthday emma!

[@voodookid8907]

Sarah is my favorite!

[@TheMacabreGamer]

funny thing is I'm watching this on a Sunday 😀

[@Sally-uu3yt]

Happy Bday Emma LUV LUV LUV LUV U

[@teruphoto]

Every time I see Shiori I flash back to "Aishiteru, it means 'I love you' which no one has ever said to me, and that sounds so sad..." Dunno why, but that's permanently mapped to Shiori in my brain 😂 (It's the first video they did on how to say words in different languages)

[@onebladeprop]

I'm drinking a beer and eating edamame so I can feel like I'm there with you! actually it's what I was planning for dinner anyway.

[@georgesix550]

Can't wait to come to Japan.

[@fabiobuenodosreisjunior5766]

I love your channel! Congratulations on your incredible work! Cheers from Brazil!

[@katydid5088]

I love the look of the place

[@MxPotato84]

I wish there’s a Showa era themed izakaya in NYC. I would love to try all those things without waiting for Japan to open back up.

[@jacobdrolet4262]

Totally amazing fun delicious 🤤 video and fantastic job.

[@kitecattestecke2303]

Shiroi lifting the 1 Liter was hilarious :-) That Sahara like potatoes is normal we Germans eat them every day they are somehow very important to us..

[@SIXCOINS]

No I have not, but would love to. Looks like a lot of fun.

[@McAster99]

My recommendation with Hanbey, or similar izakayas, get a leek with your meal if you are going to be ordering a lot of beer or greasy food. Eat it before anything else and it'll keep you from feeling bloated later.

[@ralfmoll5727]

Happy Birthday to You, Emma. 🥂

[@blackinferno91]

The fried bread looked so tasty 😋

[@melaniejaneprocter5529]

I love Yukisoda next time I go to Japan I will try it there to see if its different to the one I have a home in Wagamuma. 💖💖💖💖💙XXXXX

[@TheStanHill]

Happy birthday, Emma!

[@deletedwaffles]

I LOVE Hanbey, it's so cheap and retro. Such a nice atmosphere. The only thing of disappointment was when I was offered cow uterus. It taste like how a men's bathroom would smell.

[@TopAnimeLoverEver]

That sounds traumatizing. Note to self- no.. cow... uterus... ✍️

[@deletedwaffles]

@@TopAnimeLoverEver I guess they had to use whatever food they could get a hold of in the Showa era after the war and cow uterus and crickets were some of the items.

[@TopAnimeLoverEver]

@@deletedwaffles fair point. Still don't think I want to .. eat.... that

[@41tinman41]

A themed restaurant is always a win. I wonder if the Japanese equivalent of the US 50's diner aesthetic with the waitresses in cute uniforms and rollerskates and such.

[@SendMoreParamedics13]

I missed this place when I was in Japan. Need to go next time! But first need to make some Japanese frannnz..or else it just wouldn't be the same experience!

[@tankeryy1566]

I will try going to this Izakaya one day!

[@NessaGhouliful]

I wish there was a legit Izakaya here in Vancouver BC, but the cost of living, plus the continuing rising inflation and limited supply of ingredients/products - it just isn't financially feasible for a Japanese-specific restaurant to offer such low prices for alcohol and food. There are a lot of fantastic Japanese restaurants here, but they're not cheap.

[@arno866]

Oh gosh it all looked really good but i would wanna try the frog legs ( mostly to say I’ve eaten frog legs lol ).

[@MagashiSaizen]

Omg Shiori is adorable 🥰

[@ranzoon.]

Quote of the day: "It tastes like the Showa era."😅

[@Del-Lebo]

So freaking Cool!!! And fun and...like Yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I am freaking 56 years old!!!!! Definitely would hang out there!!!!!!!!!!!! So fun!!

[@IM_SKELETOR]

giving the boss from grandmas boy w that coat

[@_Murky_]

look like a good feed with good people

[@Its-Kat_]

My local small Hawaiian style shop (we live near the beach in southern Kanagawa) and he sometimes gives me the fried crusts.

[@Tracksidebench]

Yay happy birthday beautiful toki doki

[@DiggingForFacts]

"This was Shiori's idea." "Why don't we go eat a lot?" That sounds like a very reasonable argument.

[@robd92]

Shiori vs Cheese 😆 would definitely visit this place when I go back to Japan…eventually…hopefully next year 🥲

[@glass_parton]

I was tickled to learn that bread crust is パンの耳 (bread ears) in Japanese!

[@bryonyamada2620]

2:50 The beer mug Shori is drinking from plus her size reminds me of Kyoko from Maison Ikkoku when the group go to a roof top beer garden and she gets her version of a large beer 10:35 For you anime fans this is what Aggretsuko ate for S1-2 at lunch at times with mayo.

[@VerhoevenSimon]

That price actually seems quite reasonable given the amount you ate.

[@TheRogueFeline]

I would love to try all of these foods. I would try the frog legs and see how different it taste to the ones we have in the southern US.

[@three-stripes]

The only restaurant where Chris eats and he's NOT invited?! I'm sure you guys will be hearing about this...

[@fanficrocks]

Tc, please do a behind the scenes reel soon?

[@jessiepedro8632]

You say you finished working but you still working…🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@blahbada]

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

[@john_doe295]

The best part was that there was no pointless transparent shielding, which Japanese celebrities do😂

[@konroz]

11:38 Aggretsuko's Retsuko ate pan no mimi with mayo after the wedding

[@astrowolvez]

Wow fifty cent chicken skewer that’s hood quality, america could never! 😂

[@KORTOKtheSTRONG]

neat

[@edwindungdung1998]

Man, Jordan is a genius using his headphones as a hair band.

[@SatanSupimpa]

Tokyo Creative goes to an Otoboke Beaver concert

[@t3nosanfran803]

Are street festivals back yet in Japan?

[@OllamhDrab]

Ah, places like that are top of my list for Japan, particularly cause I like to graze and hang out. :) (Also I've never had crickets as such, but I've really enjoyed roasted locusts. Rather nutty taste to them. (I've tried a good number of 'strange' foods, but the usual reaction is 'Eh, this is OK,' rather than going out of my way to look for them again. The locusts were really good though. Maybe crickets are like that. :) )

[@damascusraven]

So a ginger, a black dude, and a German walk into an izakaya. Which is weird cuz it's Japan.

[@basa5603]

Hey I would like to ask Shiori about how you make international friends in Japan.

[@mitsuakitominaga6525]

I love in japan at syouwa and naturally.👍👍

[@yeroun1974]

Of course Shiori is gonna have a huge beer…

[@jthomp72]

I see Tokyo Creative got the Gov't memo about forcing young people to drink more. Tyfys

[@dmdave2512]

Eats frog leg "tastes like chicken". Yes, and this is why I've never seen the draw. I'll just have the cheaper chicken thanks lol. The only legs I feel the need to go out of my way to eat are crab legs because yum!

[@Felice_Enellen]

Mikan are the kind of fruit where you wonder why anyone would rather eat candy.

[@viciousvictortee1298]

I hear you get English menus in some places they may charge more. Like a convenience fee. Considering your not to tip is probably worth it. But be carefull while being carefree!

[@gustavovillegas5909]

Wait, Shiori’s name isn’t Shorty??

[@christophersummers1939]

a home run *sized* beer should be at least 1420ml/48oz, the equivalent of 4 cans/bases. or, if you're mlb tier: 4 pints ⚾

[@TopAnimeLoverEver]

I...... frog legs? I.... I just.... No. Everything in my brain rejects that premise. No.

[@Domspun]

Just tell yourself it's chicken thighs. Unless you don't eat chicken...

[@fontanayoung8375]

Where I am from frog legs,cow tongues ,chicken legs,and pig legs among other things are quite common that you learn to cook from your grandparents.

[@AfroInJPN]

@@fontanayoung8375 Cow tongue is delicious!

[@fabricio4794]

you need to meet Prizza,she is your devlish lost sister,and she speaks english too

[@RonaldoSanchez-g1y]

can you pinpoint this on a map for me because i"m having a hell of a time locating it

[@rachelsaelid6081]

Will they let you eat there if you are traveling solo?

[@AfroInJPN]

Of course~! They have solo seating counter tables too!

[@jc3drums916]

Looks awesome, except for the beni shoga. 🤮 In Bavaria, I think that home run beer would be considered a medium.

[@uniikkiz]

I'm a little confused...just watched a couple recent TC videos. Jordon's been dropping uncensored F-bombs left, right and center, while Chris broad drops one and gets beeped out. What's the deal?

[@AfroInJPN]

All depends if the video is sponsored or not basically lol
