[@dangerzone9747]

[@ryanone12]

I recently was at Haneda, had a lot of time to spend before my flight, and I ate at many of these places you show here. And yes, these places are fire! We especially liked 茶寮翠泉 with their gold leaf matcha soft serve. We also liked that Haneda Airport Garden had plenty of shops as well as restaurants. It’s definitely a nice place to spend time before your flight and worth setting aside some extra time for. Great video as always - keep up the great work!

[@u2onair11]

is Haneda Garden available airside? Meaning for transit travelers who do not want to go through immigration in Japan.

[@imtheluckiest]

Sitting in Haneda while I watch this, wishing that I had hit up the unagi spot before going through security…next time for sure! Another tip for frequent flyers: If you are very fortunate and have access to any of the JAL lounges via your ticket/status, they have an extremely tasty beef curry that you can order in large/small sizes. It’s really satisfying, the curry is sweet and the meat is super tender! Thanks so much for the fantastic video as always, Paolo!!

[@oniccatcas]

I was at the lounge and had that curry last month, it's amazing! Also consider the American Breakfast option if you're there in the morning, with the option to have the salad with Vegetable Dressing or Japanese-style Dressing. Comes with scrambled eggs, sausages, potatoes

[@Jordan-inJapan]

It’s changed since I was there last! I wonder if they still have that handmade soba noodle place. It was the first time I had ever tried “hon-wasabi” - a life changing experience. 😆 They bring you a little chunk of wasabi root and you grate it into the soba sauce. Anyway, IF it’s still there, I highly recommend the experience!

Since catching your channel here since Day 1 of viewing, I am ever pleased to see your high level of enthusiasm and energy with each and every video you post. For 2024, the travel bug, has turned my attention to Japan. It'll be my first visit and tentatively planning to go sometime in May... to be continued...your videos inspire me to ensure I leave no food/shopping stone unturned upon my 1 and a half to 2 week visit 🎉 PS - alas unfortunately I am not a fan of spice or chilli added to foods - so I won't know the taste of your recently launched hot sauce 😮

So timely, my fam transiting through Haneda in a week! Many thanks Paolo!!

[@Mamasparky86]

I was at Haneda Airport in April 2019, and holy smokes they have so much more now! We had enjoyed eating breakfast at Haneda at a small bakery that was right beside the train station. We had left early that morning to beat the rush hour traffic on the trains and didn’t have time to eat. Side story, but when we were flying out of Haneda to go to Osaka, I didn’t know you could take food and drinks with you through security. That is a big no no in Canada. You can buy drinks and food once you are past security and can take it on the plane. But before? You either have to drink and eat it or throw it away. I had completely forgotten I had a full bottle of orange juice and we were next in line for security. I grabbed my juice and started to chug it. Not only did I grab the attention of the ladies behind the scanning equipment but a security guard as well. The guard approached me and very suspiciously asked what I was doing (in English). I sincerely apologized, explained that I forgot I had my juice on me and didn’t want to throw it away; so I was trying to drink it quickly. He looked at me funny and then asked “why? You can drink it once you get through security and even on the plane” Both my husband and I were shocked. We explained the rules when flying in Canada which made the guard smile and the ladies giggle. They told us that wasn’t the case in Japan, and the only thing they wanted to do with my juice was to quickly smell it to make sure there was no alcohol. This was also the same rule at Kansai and Kagoshima airport too.

[@MsCanadianpie]

I used to fly to Haneda airport. I love it because it's close to the city. The selection of food is also amazing! Best airport in my opinion ❤

[@user-po3yp1qv5n]

I love how such high quality food is actually affordable in Japan.. Paulo how do you stay in shape? Always trying amazing food.

[@benforwho]

Really cool to see whats at the airport!?! And, your sauce creation is SO good. I received several bottles from the second batch and have it everyday at work with lunch. Coworkers love the oily aftertaste. Go Paolo!

[@acm_1985]

Great video! I was there in March, the "Grand opening" Banners still around. Can confirm it is a beautifull shopping center. I definately will visit the Unagi Yondaime Kikuwa next time, looks delicious! Please keep up Your good work, always a pleasure to enjoy sharing Your experiences.

How'd the trip go?

[@whis5448]

@@marc1 not as good, because there were alot of walking as the shopping malls and shops were not around my hotel. I dont think i will go back japan anytime soon. I still prefer south east asia like malaysia and indonesia batam where the shopping mall is just beside my hotel. Also the language barrier is really there, even in 7-eleven, the staffs dont speak a single word of english. Even in disneyland ambassador hotel, the staff also got problem understanding me. Disneyland was full of local people and it was a nightmare, not enjoyable at all.

Indeed 😊

[@riekster6901]

ehh, no he didn't. the correct pronunciation is: woostershur=Worcestershire

[@prva9347]

@@riekster6901 Yes. It's a mouthful (literally), so it's quite OK to shorten it to "the Worcester" ("wooster") e.g. "please pass the Worcester". When I used to visit Worcester a lot you could always tell you were approaching the motorway exit for Worcester due to the smell from the Worcestershire Sauce factory.

Stayed there again on the way back as the flight was early morning and our flight to Tokyo from Fukuoka was the previous day.
