[@nikolaitea8776]

Aw, you can tell that Satoshi is excited to talk about his hometown's food!

[@BlkMrktAglets_]

Loved hearing more about Satoshi and his hometown foods ❤

[@OpenSesame33]

Great to see Satoshi’s enthusiasm at the foods with so much nostalgia attached to them (and love his glasses!).

So happy that Yamagata is chosen for the winter care package! It’s so beautiful in winter and all the food sounds super delicious!! Big thankyou to Satoshi for introducing Shinichi and us to this bountiful experience! 😍

[@johncspine2787]

I had an elderly Japanese neighbor, she was surprised when I grew mitsuba, burdock (goba) and shungiku and a big row of multicolored chrysanthemums for her..I miss her, she moved away when she stopped teaching Japanese in the high schools here to be w her family.

I love that shop! Normally I go to ginza then find my way to the Yamagata shop.❤

[@TabiEats]

Glad you like this shop too!

[@meat_loves_wasabi]

Gd morning from Beppu.. This our first time exploring around Kyushu area…Food is great as always and loving the hotel onsen to end the day

[@Guidance_Association]

So much good food that I just have to try it! I've now decided that I will definitely visit Japan again next year!

[@TabiEats]

Thank you! Happy to hear you’ve decided to visit !

[@Scriptor13]

Oh, the Imoni looked scrumptious! And, I'd love to try Fu as a meat alternative. Such a wonderful variety of comestibles grow in Yamagata and the cuisine really reflects that. Hearty, rich food in the cold months; fresh, light food in the warm months. And, cherries! 👏My favorite fruit, other than mangoes fresh from the tree. Thank you Satoshi for acquainting Shinichi, and us, with beautiful Yamagata and its bounty!💙💚

[@TabiEats]

Yamagata truly has a bounty of produce -and so much more. We had planned to visit this year to film but have decided to go next year instead/

[@Scriptor13]

@@TabiEats I can't wait to see that footage! Yamagata is a place I definitely want to visit.

[@weeyee60]

Everything looked so delicious. 🥢 I love gobo! You’re both blessed, to be able to do what you do…⛩ Wish I had the expendable funds, to purchase your special Kokoro package; someday. Take care, & stay safe Shinichi & Satoshi!

[@accskaguy]

This episode made me miss a long gone local place that had curry soba. They made their own noodles with equipment imported from Japan, and the flour used to make those noodles was also imported. So delicious. When that shop unexpectedly and suddenly closed, I ended up somehow finding my way to a Korean style restaurants instead. That spot is still one of my favorites too. Go figure. :)

[@erizabesu9494]

Love your videos! 😊❤ Watching Satoshi's memories come flooding back just from tasting the food was amazing to watch and be a part of. Thank you for introducing me to this beautiful gem of a city. Yamagata is definitely on my list of places to visit while in Japan. ❤

[@SeventhSwell]

All looks so tasty!

[@awoFalase]

As always another delicious looking segment. Thank you.

[@Richhookspin]

I want to visit this restaurant. Everything looked delicious.

[@tamara4557]

This is what I love in Japan; there are so many regional specialities which makes traveling even more fun. The food looks delicious. I would love to try the fu. And I bet that this imoni is way better then what I can make because they use these regional ingredients.

[@eller1066]

You 2 are awesome. Keep up the great videos.

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Fun video to see foods from the countryside. Tourists may not get a chance to visit outside of Tokyo, but can still try foods from different parts of Japan.

[@angelamapa2529]

So nice to learn about specialties from Satoshi's hometown. I'm a fan of curry udon too! :D

[@dwaynewladyka577]

All the food looks really good. Cheers! 👍👍✌️

[@kirbyesque]

I was very lucky to visit Yamagata last winter and I hope to return this spring. Wonderful!

[@flatironnewyork]

Coming to Tokyo for the first time next week. I may need to go get some of that sugared senbei from the Yamagata specialty store!

[@pamelagordon869]

Looking great guys ❤❤❤❤

[@v1c4r10u5]

I'm heading to Yamagata next week! I'm excited to see Ginzan Onsen and ski Zao, but I also want to check out Yamagata city, too. I drove to Yamadera and the near-ish koinobori display for Golden Week 2023, and I had the best time, it was so wonderful. I'll keep my eyes open for some of this stuff!

[@johncspine2787]

Burdock, or gobo is thought to be the inspiration for Velcro..! The seed pods are covered with little projections with a hook at the end..you can throw them (they’re super light, not a danger by any means, lol..) at ppl, or your dog and they stick instantly, so you can see how easily the plant spreads. I loved studying aikido, especially the softer style of Seishiro Endo Sensei, his videos are so inspiring..you guys seem like ideal companions to spend a weekend with touring around Japan..I really enjoy your videos!

[@datlam7836]

Man that food looks great. Might have to give it a try when I go back to Tokyo!

[@cycg1935]

Nothing like food you enjoyed from childhood. These look yummy! As usual. 😋

[@debracantrell1058]

Hey guys how you doing Thanks for sharing this video love it All the food looks delicious take care 😘😘❤️🥰🤩😍🙏🌈🌹💯

[@ThomasWatsonHollingworthIV]

1:18 the yellow labeled bag looks like a type of Jerusalem artichoke, or sunchoke. Those are originally from the Americas. They're related to sunflowers.

[@accskaguy]

What a feast. I am mildly jealous. :) I have to get there for myself one day. It would be extra fun if I got to meet you there

[@beachcomer007]

very nice looking food!!! 😋🍲

[@aylkesyjp]

I love Omizuke too😂 『ままけは』や『晩菊』も譲れないです。米は『つや姫』や『はえぬき』といただきたい❤

[@てくてくぱくぱく]

おいしい山形😋 ベタチョコに銀嶺月山につや姫…大好きなものばっかりで山形が恋しくなりました💕 私は毎回帰省すると男山のつららぎ、今年は間にあいませんでしたが季節が合えば銀嶺月山の槽前酒が楽しみです🍶😋

[@TabiEats]

山形で知られているところというと、銀山温泉と蔵王くらいだったところ、最近西川町が国連のベストツーリズムビレッジに選ばれたらしく、世界に知られるようになるのは嬉しいなと思います。銀嶺月山とか東京ではまず見かけないので嬉しかったです。ベタチョコって子供の頃からあったけど、なるほど昭和39年からのなんですって。

[@てくてくぱくぱく]

@@TabiEats おお、西川町すごい！嬉しいですねえ😊 ベタチョコってそんなに歴史があったんですね。子供の頃から慣れ親しんだ懐かしい味です😋

[@ramprashad29]

I love Japan. i will visit one day. The love of my life, Takeda Shingen, used to live in Japan 😂

[@erzsebetkovacs2527]

Salivating at the sight of that brown sugar rice cracker. I wonder if it might be duped as a brown sugar puffed rice Krispie?

[@nancydonaldson3886]

When will you travel to yamagata in winter so you can show us all the hearty soups and veggies.

[@seewhydesign]

んめそ〜！When are you guys coming to Shonai/Sakata? 待ってます！

[@uroprop]

beertoshi best satoshi

[@HikaruRain]

Oh I had tons of Taro in my hot pot tonight. lol

[@boxerblake1]

10:42 awkward picnic

[@Urbankin]

Just curious. Does Japan have fried tofu or firm tofu cousines? All I saw was the soft tofu and served as is. Kinda disapointing as tofu is delisous when fried and laced with teriyaki sauce. Is it lost in history or never was a thing in Japan ?

[@restaurantman]

🖖🙂👍

[@boxerblake1]

That's the most expensive beer I've seen in Japan

[@grassmanBoca]

Maybe just go to Yamagata and eat?

[@pariston1284]

in the first 4 minutes alone they said Yamagata at least 10 times..its irritating. couldnt finish the vid
