Traditional Japanese Breakfast at 100-Year Old Mansion | Tour of Rural Japan

We start the day off with a traditional Japanese breakfast at Iizukatei, a renovated hotel that's a tangible cultural property, located in Nakagawa Machi in Tochigi prefecture Japan. Afterwards, we take a walk through the quaint town of Nakagawa Machi, visit one of the most unique shrines in Japan and enjoy a healthy lunch at a restaurant specializing in local vegetables.

The hotel and the owl shrine were awesome. The town really deserves more visitors, I hope it will come true and the visitors will bring back the businesses. There is a huge attraction in places like that, which is amazing nature and great food.

[@mylesdesigns]

I would love to see more small towns that need attention. Hidden treasures.

[@AikawaMartialArts]

Have you looked at any of Kurt Bells videos..... ? He has a bunch of hidden shrine and abandoned japan videos.

[@robertbarnier45]

Really love the way you enjoy that beautiful food. Thank you

[@Scriptor13]

What a wonderful video. Very intimate and peaceful. I loved seeing more of Nakagawa Machi and the fascinating and endearing Torinoko Sansho Shrine. And, of course, your parting lunch with all the fresh local vegetables made my mouth water. I'd love to see, as you mentioned Shinichi, more videos of visits to lesser-known towns which may be suffering because of travel restrictions. That's a great idea on many levels. Love and hugs to you both. 💜💜

I am a new subscriber. I love your videos and how you come off as a happy individual. I love the way you express your gratitude and appreciation for all the food and everything else around you. It is a very spiritual thing. I hope you will gain more viewership and subscribers. Thank you.

Such a lovely town, beautiful inn, delicious local organic restaurant, thanks again for showing us your wonderful travelling videos. I really like and appreciate your passion for helping out with communities.

[@SpeakUrMindShareUrWords]

What a wonderful breakfast. Reminds me of my grandparents. I grew up eating umeboshi w/shiso leaves on hot rice, with tsukemono, natto (my favorite), hot tea for breakfast w/my Obaa-san My grandpa was Filipino so he cooked eggs, pork or a clear soup to eat w/rice. I think if you took small tours to different places it would increase the tourist traffic to that area, where people could stay a few days n shop. Very scenic. Old Japan.

Yes I always do love all of your video and you taking the time do the video for us

[@mizzprettyhuston]

Will you please film the cherry blossom trees in Japan this year? I have always wanted to see them....I love cherry blossoms. You guys should open a cafe there for your fans to visit.

[@CatherineC.2123]

You should check out Japan BackpackersXpress. This channel shows a lot of flowers and flowering trees.

[@mizzprettyhuston]

@@CatherineC.2123 Thank you so much I will check it out.

[@KardoganLR]

The breakfast looks amazing, but I wonder how the temperatures are in winter inside a 100 year old house.

[@Shinichisworld]

The hallways are actually quite cold especially at night. There is heating inside the main rooms so it’s not a big problem.

[@karenstanislaw8912]

Just - special, rarefied. -Suits your appreciative, thoughtful spirits. Thank you for the vicarious "nourishment." (On every level).

Love that owl shrine 🦉🦉🦉

[@louisetregomorgan4907]

I already have this beautiful hotel on my bucket list ,thanks to your amazing videos Tabieats/and Shinichi world. These cities do need to be treasured for there local produce , history and what the region has to offer. Like the Owl Shrine who would have thought so interesting. But the food in this region is amazing, breakfast and lunch was just perfect Shinichi . I had w wonderful time much appreciated, best of all Satoshi was with you 💚💚💚👍.

[@jlewsf]

Shinichi, it's great to visit off the beaten path destinations. love that.

[@samanthajohnson3368]

I still can't get over the peace of the place and the amount of traditional buildings, so beautiful. So sad that many of the businesses have closed, I'm so glad that they are trying to revive it all, it's such a shame that these places are losing the locals as they move away for work, its a ever decreaseing spiral that leaves many of these places unsustainable. We've had this happen to many places in the UK, or the rich buy property there and send the valuations so high the the local first time buyers can't afford to live there anymore. So sad. I wish them all the luck in the world.

[@theindependentstage8096]

When you two throw your heads back after placing a piece of food in your mouths, I know it's going to be a tasty treat with an in depth description. Also both of you almost seem to beam with excitment after you eat something you like. 🤗❤ Happy Spring

[@SabinaThoy]

You made me laugh in this video I love it thank you for showing us this hidden gem of a town. Blessings to the both of you 🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@rainerlovesjapan9468]

Lovely place. I remembered watching your first video of the mansion with mum.

@@Shinichisworld good morning to you two from Us! Thank you so much! We watched the video and as always enjoyed it so much. We truly hope to visit one day. Because of you two, we have learned so much about Japan and its traditions! Today I was thinking of Justin :( and how much we miss him. We have 3 cats and after you know what I am starting to develop some allergies towards them. It breaks my heart. Shinichi - what is that art on the wall with the mountain called I think it is on a fabric? I remember watching a video when you all chose it but couldn’t find it and we would like to get one if we can. We constantly cook your mom’s gyoza the best one, and enjoy a lot of Satoshi’s recipes! Thank you again for the breath of fresh air during these times! We love you dearly!

[@YourCherryBlossom]

I’m a huge fan of all of your channels. I’m a Kawanishi too! I am adding this beautiful boutique hotel to my list of places to visit when I’m able to go back to Japan.

[@tomithot261]

Owl Shrine, a truly hidden gem. I have never heard of this special place and loved walking with you to see it. Appreciate when you hold the camera in front of you as I can see everything and seems like I am there. Enjoy seeing the food presentation, Japanese food is so well plate-ed. You do a great service sharing these little special parts of Japan ... on my next trip I may actually end up there!

[@astroboy3507]

What a breakfast!!!!! 👌🏼

[@澪みくりや]

Love it, your channel always feels so personal and open, you talk like we are there with you and its a wonderful thing, love the cozyness of your video style and the food looks amazing 🥺🤗

[@mizzprettyhuston]

It's the little things.....Im sure this is why I'm obsessed lol .....Thank you again for another awesome video. P.s. the owl was adorable! I love owls. Where is the owl shrine located?

[@Shinichisworld]

The owl shrine is just a 20 min drive away from iizukatei

[@mizzprettyhuston]

@@Shinichisworld thank you 😊

[@Geemeel1]

'What a great vid , you are such a great presenter and showing us a lot , what i just don't get: why would you (still) wear a mask?? Why are the Japanese all wearing masks still??😷😷 The walk up to the shrine was SO pretty serene. Thanks for that.

[@IKEMENOsakaman]

I feel like a failed human, because I don't eat breakfast... if only I could cook Japanese breakfast... I'd be eating them everyday!

[@mayumidaigo3613]

I’m a Japanese mom and I know how to cook Japanese breakfast. Preparing and cooking this kind of breakfast takes lots of time.

[@brewstergallery]

I would love to see Yamagata if Satoshi is up for it.

[@mizzprettyhuston]

Me too....I think it would be awesome to see.

[@NelsonClick]

I have always wanted to try an authentic Japanese breakfast. It's different from what I used to and seems gentle and sophisticated. An easy push into the day.

[@notbill08]

"Negi" are called _Leeks_ in most other countries.

[@Shinichisworld]

Ahhh that’s actually good to know. Thanks

[@cademancaden]

This video is going to be so good. Unfortunately tomorrow (Monday) morning at 9am I'll be at work :( but I'll watch it after I get out. That's a tough time in the US for a premiere. Just my thoughts.

[@perdomot]

They've started knocking down a lot of the old buildings on Keemoku street here in Honolulu in order to build another condo and I think its a shame.

[@Shinichisworld]

Ahhh that really is a shame. I really hope the area doesn’t change too much unless it’s for the better…

[@sqike001ton]

you talk about plain white rice i don't like it by itself and my mother in law gets so made at me i don't do things right back before i could really use chopsticks i carried a light my fire plastic spork (i still do when i go to japan) to help me i also really like to take my rice and dump it into my miso soup the weirds out most Japanese people I've meet even my wife gets embarrassed at me when we go to her hometown she is from a rural northern village and a 6 foot 2 375 pound white guys sticks out

[@Shinichisworld]

Ahh yes. We used to dump rice into miso soup as kids, but yeah that’s something not to be done outside the home. My suggestion. How about some furikake on the rice?

[@sqike001ton]

@@Shinichisworld I ask apparently it's not something people do in public especially as an adult I guess plus one thing I have noticed and my wife pointed out as an American is we tend to mix foods together think of KFC mash potato bowl everything mixed together the Japanese don't do that as much they enjoy things more separate just something my wife pointed out tho the whole thing could also be a urban rural thing her home town is around 500 people I attract alot of attention and when i doing different things sticks out more than if I was Japanese so that is part of it i think especially my novice chopstick skills
