    Man even food from the middle of an alleyway is delicious in Japan

      Tbh that's where the best food in any place is, never the popular busy streets but the small ones in neighborhoods or just outside of downtown areas.

      It’s mad - my wife and I spent 3 months in Japan in 2018, and probably the best meal we had was from a tiny udon shop in Fukuoka that was tucked away in an alley behind a pachinko parlour.

      @wizkaqueefa9003 Před 10 měsíci +1

      If the business survives in a dark alley that's all hidden, people are going there for a reason, not because it's in a "c0nVeNiEnT l0cAti0n".

    I love how this channel is just showing random places instead of crazy popular tourist restaurants. That's how it was a lot of the time when I was in Japan. You just wander around until you're hungry and then stumble into the nearest restaurant. It's the authentic gaijin experience.

    The key to good alleyway food in cities is to make sure the restaurant looks like it's been in that alleyway for a while. If it's successful in that location, it has to be damn good.
    If it's some fancy shiny new place, it's a dice roll. Probably someone looking for cheap rent, could be good, could be garbo.
