“First lunch” - love a man with the right prorities!

[@amputeeright]

It is peak apple season where I live. Our favorite orchard has twenty varieties awailable, as well a non alcoholic cider, apple dumplings, apple butter, and apple cider smoothies. When you drive by, you can smell the apple butter being made.

[@JohnLumagui]

Man, an apple pie tour is sheer genius! It's peak apple season here in the States, and fresh apple cider and an apple pie sounds really good right now!

[@radiopal0911]

Thank you... I always enjoy watching your videos. They are actually uplifting.

[@EmseyDaisy]

We just got our first batch of fresh apples from our local orchard! Nothing says fall like delicious apples 🤤

[@alexoestreicher1092]

Your video inspired me to visit Aomori today. I even tried the pasta at A-Factory. You were right, it was delicious! ありがとうございます！

[@protocolofficer2629]

I watched your voyage to the mainland and looked with glee to see you order two meals even though you had dinner. Your “apple quest” was very compelling with me getting moist in my mouth over your apple pastries. Then apple cider. Was it sparkling, I could not tell. Your other meals had me microwaving some chicken curry and aloo gobhi, leftover from tonight’s dinner. I laughed when you said you were full and was just looking at the ice cream….as a small container is shown in your hand. All in all, this was a terrific video with me drooling through most if it. I have been watching you for most of this year when you go on your ferry voyages. I came to that although it was intriguing to see your various accommodations, I always enjoyed your meals the best. I look forward to many more of your entries. Cheers from Colin.

[@mewsli]

And just as I finished watching the ferry video , up pops this one! I think my pie will have 2 small slices cut from it !! ❤️

[@dianeamison-loring7204]

Those apple pastries looked absolutely delicious!!!! Thanks for sharing

[@koreanstallion]

Yes, I enjoyed the trip today. Thank you!

[@ibeam23]

I got excited when I received two notifications of your new videos!! Watching this one first!!

[@ringmaster146]

Me too 👍🏻

[@GavinAnderegg]

That apple pie guide map at 8:31 looked like a lot of fun! It would be great to spend a few days there and explore more of them! It's great when an area specializes in and promotes things like this. Great fun as a tourist! Thanks for making great videos!

[@lagbait3076]

This legend casually sneaking a curry in last minute. That hotel room looked awesome, I may have to look up Aomori more.

[@roboboy430]

Honestly, I never even thought to add apples to curry! I'll have to try it next time I make a batch

[@TheGorillafoot]

Why am I not surprised that Japan takes apple pie and makes it's even better. Making me hungry just watching this.

[@jackiejenkins4078]

Looked like a nice trip and delicious food! Thanks for reminding me that I need to stop at my local apple orchard to see what varieties are available! 😁🍎😋

[@hollyboggs9771]

I like these tours. 😊

[@bababooey6969]

It was a very enjoyable video!! Now I have a craving for apple pie...

[@TheZenomeProject]

I don't think that there's any culture that can truly compete with Japan's fascination towards and excellence in the culinary world. The French absolutely do come close when it comes to the richness and the extent of their culinary history, but at least in my personal opinion, the average Japanese WAY out-fervors them and combines that with near-insane quality control among businesses in order to satisfy them. I mean, just think about it: I can go to a relatively-small city like Hirosaki and eat my way through dozens of extremely high-quality Japanese patisserie-style apple pies. In my much larger American hometown of Raleigh, I would be lucky if I could point out two or three places that make apple pies at the same quality level. Now, Raleigh is a fantastic city in its own way, but I just wish that the citizens could look their friends in the Far East to understand the importance of marketing and emphasizing the culinary culture.

[@gloriawatson]

All the food looked great . . .however did you have to eat the two apple pies in front of us? The first one was plated beautifully, the second was the one I'm used to. You had a very nice hotel room for 8500 yen. Enjoyed the food tour. Will definitely be with you on the next one. Take care, be safe.

[@marysmith7765]

I guess this part of Japan are where my favorite Mutsu apples come from!! ❤ I would love to see more videos from Hokkaido, Sapporo, etc. if you ever get a chance.

[@hamdinger7145]

I like this channel

[@WitchyOrchid]

I did get hungry and had an apple fritter while watching you. Thank you for sharing this and I'm very happy you got "just one more" with the ice cream. Always get the ice cream :)

[@deirdregarcia2762]

Everything looked appletizing . Hehehe .

[@djor316]

Thanks for bringing us along Be safe and God Bless.

[@btaleonard02]

We just went to Aomori in June and had our lunch at the Art Hotel. Food was fantastic. A factory is a great place to explore. Too bad that we did not have much time.

[@7passionstar]

So many apple pies! 🍎 Another super fun video, thank you so much!

[@gus473]

😋 Delicious destination! 👍🏼🍎✌🏼

[@quanming312]

Why did I watch this when I’m hungry at 2am 😅 Everything looked so good!

I love the way u make the videos. This was a treat to watch

[@dutchbiker4825]

Seeing this I just had to make myself breakfast 🙂

[@foodlab4760]

The best video ever. I would love to try all kinds of apple desserts sooner and visit some places u traveled to. It makes me hungry when u introduced one by one all kinds of apple pies. Hope u will introduce more foods that's famous in every city for preference in the future. Have a good day.

[@samuelsoule8636]

Excited to be visiting there next year! Especially now that I know some places to eat!

[@angelamapa2529]

Delicious apple pies!

[@korohacker]

I remember Aomori mainly because of it being the birthplace for Nyango Star, so I suppose the mascot's efforts to promote Aomori as the place for apples in Japan is paying off. Never knew it's also the place for scallops though, because that's a lot of scallop in the miso soup, goodness. About the wasabi question, I do like my wasabi, just in small amounts. And only with sushi

[@TheZenomeProject]

One of the main varieties of apples in the US is the Fuji apple. Although the ones you find in the US are domestically grown, the cultivar is actually named after the town of Fujisaki, which happens to be right next door to Hirosaki. The majority of Fuji apples grown and sold in Japan are in orchards surrounding Hirosaki and the Aomori countryside. They honestly have a legitimate reason to promote their apples in such a fervent way.

[@sekhmetsaes]

Hahaha! "Nothing...Just Looking...One Scoop." It is apple season here in NH USA, too!

[@filipl.296]

Wow, one video and some things make me fell like home - Apple Pies (i'm from Poland, we love Apples here), and some look like from another Galaxy, like this Scallop - Egg - Miso Soup.

[@kathleenjohnston3129]

Loved your food tour

[@dangeorge809]

I knew that hotel looked familiar when I booked it! I'm staying two nights in Aomori between time in Hakodate and Akita next year. I must have had this video in my mind when I booked that hotel. Got a great deal too.

[@jevvvNZ]

What a delicious and filling tour this was! Scallop and apple curry - a very local curry variation indeed

[@AnaSolVa]

A place that has its own apple pie map is exactly the kind of place I want to visit. I'm glad I was eating while watching this video, because I would have gotten hungry. As it is, I really want some apple pie now

[@tek87]

I happen to be In Aomori now and Im looking to hit up some of those spots. Thanks for making these videos.

[@tongling2142]

Looking forward for more food tour also...

[@jess5691]

[@sarahsouth2987]

We have an Apple festival every year in my hometown. They serve “the world’s largest apple pie.” I don’t know if that’s true, but it is a pretty darn big apple pie.

[@kristihanson]

That scallop party looked amazing.

[@vanadee1618]

Egg, scallop and miso looks really good.

[@Keigylf]

Thought it was cool that you posted this right before Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year when we traditionally eat apples with honey. The apple pies and cider all looked so good! It’s interesting how sometimes your ferry rooms are more spacious than your hotel rooms, even for comparable prices. I laughed really hard at your battle with your camera focus.

[@protocolofficer2629]

[@isabeljohannes9328]

“Nothing……just one scoop!” 😂🤣😂

[@kurofune.uragabay]

Brasserie "Le Castle"! 😂 (LE château and The CASTLE had a baby...) Thanks STJ, apple pie made with Aomori apples sure sounds _yodare ga tare-sō na_ (mouth-watering). Another slice of Only-in-Japan: I like how having a rules-following and generally respectful population means you can enjoy semi-wild patches of forest in big cities, like this Hirosaki Park in Aomori, Meiji Jingu in Tokyo, Tadasu-no-Mori Forest in Kyoto etc.

[@duriancracker]

Hi thanks for delicious looking posts. Can share which restaurants you had both the apple pies. I be in Aomori in April with a cruise, hope can taste the pies n ciders then. Thanks in advance.

[@zincchristina9296]

So yummy 😋😋😋😋😋😋

[@catingrey]

I love your videos visually but I wish you would go into more description about how things taste. Take us on the food journey with you beyond "I loved it" or "It was good". You had apple and scallop curry? I have no idea how that would taste. Many thanks and keep making more videos!

[@TorIverWilhelmsen]

What, Japan has comfy hotel room desk chairs? I hope that innovation spreads to the rest of the world...

[@christinestraw5795]

You have given us such a great insight into Japanese food mouthwatering

[@kathleenevans1201]

Great food tour! I'm ready to eat!

[@mantailuaa]

7:16 We have Jonagold apples in our store. Usually they are the cheapest ones. They taste ok but I prefer the green/yellow Italian Golden Delicious apples. The second pie looked like the ones we have here too.

[@Sannyboy45]

The Scallop Apple Curry is certainly something I’ve never seen before

[@dianeamison-loring7204]

I grew up in the Midwest United States. Apple pie absolutely needs a slice of sharp cheddar cheese on it. Try it. It's amazing.

[@feverspell]

I grew up in the Midwest too. Cheddar cheese on apple pie is revolting. It needs a scoop of cinnamon ice cream.

[@somanybookstbr9716]

YES! And the pie should be hot, per our (California) family tradition. 🍎😊🍏

[@dianeamison-loring7204]

@@feverspell try it with a really good sharp cheddar, such as Wisconsin makes, and serve hot, not cold. Cinnamon ice cream works, too.

[@gus473]

Massachusetts: 🍎 apple dumplings, with whipped cream, in The Beautiful Berkshires! 💚👍🏼😋😎

[@feverspell]

@@dianeamison-loring7204 Sorry, but no. Cheddar cheese belongs on a burger, not apple pie.

[@andyinsdca]

Hooray! It's so nice to see Aomori. I visited Aomori several times in 2004/2005 (and probably ate at Osani). Next time you go to Aomori, visit ASPAM, they have some great restaurants there.

[@slkriderchick]

Apples here in the US are coming out to the markets just now as well. I had always wondered why the Japanese markets here always had such a large variety of apple products and I now know why. I just wish our apple pies here were presented so beautifully as the one you got!! Although, the apple you got would be considered "a la mode" as it comes with ice cream. Considering all the apple products you ate, I'm sure there were many trips to the loo too. LOL!! Knowing this is a food tour, I always eat before watching these..lol

[@chickenlady3155]

'I can't eat anything else tonight... I'm just looking.... Just one scoop...' 🤣🤣🤣

[@Kltpzyxm17]

A great tour, but next time show us the apple orchards...

[@larkspin]

I LOVE scallops!

[@maloucarreras]

Those pies look so good! BTW, it’s no longer a dough once it’s baked; once it’s cooked, it’s now pie crust. ❤❤❤

[@iicydiamonds]

The apple pie map has been on my list of things I want to do in Japan! My partner thinks I'm crazy for wanting to treat it as a check list, but I'm pretty sure with pacing I could get in 3-4 per day! :D

[@gregharald1072]

Hello👋

[@VincentsVideoVisions]

It's really amazing how affordable the public transportation and food is in Japan. Here in the US everything would be so much more expensive. :(

[@dltjdal]

yum

[@carlalapish8116]

The best thing to do for this is have a friend’s group. Share the food so you don’t get too full too fast. ❤

[@ninjasec]

Ordinary this would make me hungry before bed,but had AYCE 🍣. Still full

[@varnlestoff]

Hot apple pie with vanilla ice creme is a good combo

[@hewhodestroysmorale764]

But how was the scallop and apple curry though? I need to know. Was it genuinely nice, or did you just finish it out of politeness?

[@TheZenomeProject]

Apple is probably the most common seasoning for curry in Japan. Heck, one of the main brands for Japanese curry roux is House Vermont Apple Curry. It's actually an excellent combination.

[@STJfoodtour]

It wasn’t my taste.

[@joeslayter5841]

While I am not overly fond of scallops, the scallop apple curry looked amazing!!! I want to try it!! Was it good?
