Anyone else hungry after watching this!?
🤤😋🤤😋

SO hungry
Very hungry!
@@thephilpill1819 you and Marie would loooove it in Japan! Everyone is so nice like you two! 😝
Hi, I'm the guy who shared his failed Leon Motion Capture audition story a while back. Just wanted to say thank you so much for your kind feedback. I've made a big mistake when being in touch with Capcom in late 2015 and it's an agonizing regret for me, but it felt so much better getting it off my chest. Sort of closure.
Of course! :) it’s always nice to have closure for some chapters. Hopefully some new ones open up :)
So helpful to show people where the restaurants are so they can refer back to it when they go!! :)
😍thank you Maya!! No fun to get lost! 😁
Thank you for amazing videos about Japan. planning to go there in september:)
You’re so welcome!! I hope you have the best time ever!!!! It was a life changing trip for us! 🥰
Thank you for the heads up!
Of course!! Have a great time!!! 🤩
I‘m a huge ichiran fan. Defenitely going to they your tips when i‘m back in Tokyo next month!
Yumm!!! Making me hungry!!!
Awesome information thank you
Of course! Hehe. Hope you have an amazing time!!!
Thank you so much for sharing this is really helpful! Have you also tried Ichiran ?
Thank you very much for making this video I really appreciate it
Aw sure thing!! Have a great trip!! 😍
So helpful!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 thanks!
Nom nom nom 🤤 no problem haha 😛
the minipig place is on my list...i can't wait to see them. they are SOOOO CUTE!!!
SOOOO CUTE!!!!! you won't regret it! 😍
Love your CZcams❤️, can you recommend few non- western style breakfast in Shinjuku? Thank you in advance.
Awesome information
Thank you so much Patrick!! 😝
This is super helpful with the all of the visual references! I added them all to my google list haha Thank you so much! ❤
Will you be doing another video with other types of Japanese food restaurants you recommend? 😊
Aw thanks Angela!! I’m going to do a budget friendly video in Tokyo activities soon!!
Hi Erica, I can hear you clearly and I love your videos. From pillow to food.😂😂😂
@@ireneho6372 hahaha! 🤣 thank you for watching!!!
Thank you for the Ramen restaurant tips. We will definitely search out the ones in Shunjuku (except Golden Gai as we have been told to stay away from there multiple times) when we are there in July.
Yay! Have the best time!! Golden gai is fine as long as you don’t go into the bars at night haha 😆
But also Ramen Nagi in golden gain opens at 11am! So like it’s empty in the bars! :)
@@buildyourmoxieWe are more apt to go to Arty Farty than the tourist bars. :P
@@thomashayes7003 love it!!! 🙌
I’m heading to Shinjuku in January and this video definitely helped out with my food plans! I will absolutely be checking out TsuruTonTan in Shibuya!
Haha! I was literally just there 3 hours ago!!! 🤤I’m in Japan right now and I went back because it’s soooo good 😁
I agree with Fuunji. Great tsukemen!
Soooo good!!! 😍
Oh wow. Fu-Unji is still popular?! We went back in 2016. It's amazing. Now that I know you have good taste, I will add the rest of your recommendations to my list for my trip next month.
😍Aw that would be so great! And fuunji is soooo good 🤤🤤🤤
The clam ramen in Mikawa in Shimokitazawa is amazing. You should try it out the next time you’re there!
😲 that sounds so good!!!! Thank you for the rec! 🔥
That Udon place and Nagi are both great. You try ramen break beats or gonokamiseisakusho?
Thank you, my Dear❤
🤩 of course!! Have a great time!!!
I want that bagpack hang accessories stuff 😮
It’s seriously such a great bag hanger!! I’ve had mine for years!!! 😍
Im going to that udon restaurant, definitely
Yes!!!! It’s soooo good!!!😍
Great recommendations as always! Gonna try to visit them early because I hate queues. Did you have to wait in the Shibuya one or you had a reservation?
For the Udon place, I believe you just have to wait in line. But if you go at a non-busy time, it will be fine! I don't remember reservation being an option! but it was sooooo worth it. Go during a non-busy time and get a seat by the window!! 😍
Great udon place!
My favorite in the world!! Udon in Japan is 🤯
Great video! We are getting ready for our first trip to Japan. Can you tell me more about the last restaurant, Taurus Ton Tan…specifically what you ordered? I’m not very adventurous and looks like you had Udon with fried chicken on top. Do you remember what that’s called? There are so many options and just want a simple broth. Thanks!!
Hi holly!! Tsurotontan udon has a lot of great options! They have simple shrimp tempura udon which is your common one (delicious), then thicker broth ones too. Mine was a curry udon with pork cutlet and shrimp tempura!
The menu in Shibuya has English option as it’s a screen you order from at your table 😃. You can see all the pictures there! You will find some non-adventurous options for sure 😍. Udon in Japan is sooo much better than in the states hehe
Been to Afuri with my wife & 2yrs old son. The noodles r good and service is good too.
Glad you think so too!!! It was so good!!!! I also loved how kid friendly Harajuku was! So many kiddies and toddlers in the restaurants around town :)
I live on the central coast of California. There are quite a few ramen shops springing up in my area, and ironically, they charge probably twice as much for a bowl of ramen as you'd pay for in Japan.
You are so superrr in all meanings❤
I have been to so many ramen shops in Tokyo, probably over 100 places.. cause I lived there a little while 😂 I have been to 3/5 of these - they were good and high quality but not my favourite (because I am not a big fan of fish based ramen) my favourite is the tsukemen at tatsunoya in shinjuku, def try it out next time ✨ Gotta try that udon place!
I love your country Japanese are full of respect and politeness
Japan is 🫶♥️🇯🇵
Thank you for all your Japan videos! My husband and I will be traveling soon with our 4 kids. My 4 y/o is a difficult eater so can take him over an hour to eat, here we usually ask for a togo box and feed him while we walk. We can't do that in Japan but is asking for a togo box an option ? Thank you.
Have you been to sobahouse konjiki hototogisu and is it any good?
Hello thank you for this video. I was wondering if there are places to go visit and eat that are wheelchair accessible ? I plan on visiting Japan and hopefully I will be able to take my elecrtic wheelchair.
Hi Sandra! :) I would say depending on where you are in Tokyo, there are some ramps. Not everywhere has a ramp or elevator though especially in the busy locations with a lot of buildings everywhere. Ginza, Shibuya, Tokyo Bay Area were flatter and more malls and restaurants in nice buildings with elevators too. :) shinjuku I would say is harder as it’s sooo 3D and pretty busy and narrow with people but there are some delicious places along the streets that are easy to get to. Basically when you get there, a lot of tourists are trying to just figure out where in the world they are and then that’s how they find a place to eat haha. It’s a whole different world over there but literally every restaurant is worth going to! So if you keep in mind ramps and flat floor areas, you will find some amazing places no matter what!
If you have any ramen recommendations for the rest of us, please let us know!! 🤩 Enjoy!

Tsujita at Expo City! 🤩
@@stevenchew9662 omg! Is that the same tsujita family as sawtelle? 🤩🤩
@@buildyourmoxie it is!! But I still prefer Tsujita Annex personally 🤫 The tsukemen at Expo City Tsujita is very similar to Tsujita LA artisan noodle
Dang tsujita literally is taking over 😂😂. Annex is still my favorite over in sawtelle for sure!!!
@@buildyourmoxie XDDDD
Forget personal finance, bring more travel content!
🤣🤣🤣you got it! I have 5 trips coming up in the next few weeks
Awesome videos! Thank you so much for all the details! I have a funny question! We are going to visit Japan with a group, and some people don't eat Japanese food at all, others do! It is easy to find some non Japanese food around? Like McDonald's, pizza places etc? Also, if they go and grab mc Donald's for example, they can't join us in the ramen restaurant? They probably need to wait for us outside? Thank you 🙏❤️
Thanks for watching!!! If you are in Tokyo or other big cities, there are plenty of places you can eat that aren’t Japanese food. Like pizza, wings, cafes, Starbucks, McDonald’s, subway, Chinese, Korean, and more chains and cuisines. :) if you buy from outside, I definitely would not bring the food into the Japanese restaurants. Like a sushi or ramen place etc. I haven’t ever heard anyone talk about it, but I can guarantee they will get some looks. And it probably is along the lines of bad manners 😖. A lot of the people pride themselves in their craft, so I would have your friends not bring it in! 🫡 also most places aren’t very big and there is already a line so they likely wouldn’t be given a seat!😝
@@buildyourmoxie thank you! Yes I suspect the same. We probably need to split the group and find a "meeting point" after we are done eating! Thank you so much for the info 🙌.
@@laurasardinha you are going to have SOOOOOO MUCH FUN!!! can’t wait for you to go!! 🤩⭐️
As someone who lives in Japan, mark my words, Ichiran is the #1 ramen you’ll ever have in your life. One in NYC too.
Glad my favourite place isn’t on the list. It’s busy enough as it is 🤣
🤣so funny! 🤣 I will also never talk about our favorite study place as I don’t want it any more crowded!
If you need a bib you're not earing it right haha but really rhiania great. I'm still kinda scared to order food. Going this November again. It's been 6yea since I went last
😝😝lol! True true!
HAVE A GREAT TRIP!!! 🔥🙌
Love to know more about pigs cafe please
Google mipig 😍. Try to make reservation a couple weeks before!
But should you have Tonkotsu Ramen after you play with the Mini Pigs? 😀
hahaha omg good point!!!
as you mentioned that you are from Los Angeles, i highly recommend Tsujita in Sawtelle & Soupless ramen from Menya Hanabi in Arcadia 🍜
🤩🤩🤩omg!! Those are some of my favorites!!! You have GREAT taste!!😁🔥🙌
If you are in Arcadia, check out Ramen Yukinoya if you haven’t before! We love the Tantanmen!
@@buildyourmoxie adding that on my bookmark ✨👍🏼
😁
@@buildyourmoxie i kinda skipped Ramen on my recent Japan trip, knowing that Los Angeles has a lot of great remen places to go to. went to try Soba & ricebowl places instead.
but i am adding this places on my bookmark for my future trip 🇯🇵🍜
@@nelstalgic7878 ooo any recommendations?! 😃
Is Ramen Nagi related to the one in Arcadia? :O
I just checked!! I highly doubt it!! The noodles and vibe are way different!! 😲 but dude that one looks good!! Looks like they have a black sesame!
@@buildyourmoxie Yummy!! Black sesame sounds so good 🤤
Sooo good!!!!!!!!! 😭😭😭
I started getting nervous about bringing my toddlers to any of these ramen place with long lineups...
Totally understandable! I did find that there were a lot more kids and toddlers in Harajuku and Ginza if that helps any! More strollers and baby carriers there! There were kids at Afuri ramen. They were local kids so they knew how to wait in long lines lol. Some of those ramen lines are LONG.
I didn’t see ANY toddlers in shinjuku (I was confused the first couple days of our trip and then shocked how many kids were in harajuku just a train stop away).
If you like sushi, a good place to bring the kiddos would be Sushiro (conveyor belt sushi chain and self serve. There are booths there so it’s pretty lax)
Honestly all food in Japan is soooo good. Just because the line is very long doesn’t necessarily make it better. 😃
I am a vegetarian, no fish no meat. Do any of these places have vegetarian options?
My. Goodness. Gracious. Me. I have so much story about Japan. But to simply put it. In order to understand what Japan has to Offer. You just have to visit it and see it for yourself. It is the best *Period* and truly a must visit country :)
Yes!!! I totally agree! 🙌🤩
@@buildyourmoxie 🤸♂️❤️
Any gluten free recommendations in Tokyo?
Eeek! Unfortunately the ramen and udon have gluten in it 😖. However you might want to look into Soba noodles!! 🤩
This is the soba noodle definition on google: “Soba is Japanese for buckwheat, which is a nutritious, grain-like seed that's gluten-free and - despite its name - unrelated to wheat“
@@buildyourmoxie thanks so much! Most of the gluten free places I went in 2018 closed during pandemic :-( . I need a list for my trip next month! Love you content. I'll try to find great soba!
Aw!! I hope you find some gluten free places! 🙏
And thank you so much☺️. You are too kind!
by any chance, is any of your recommendations halal or at least has non-pork menu?
Hello! 🙋🏻♀️ the ramen I got was pork based. 🥺 However I want to say there are so many halal ramen places in Tokyo. I just did a google search for “Halal ramen in Tokyo” and there were so many options! ☺️ also I’m pretty sure the udon place (my favorite) that I mentioned has a lot of non-pork based items!
@@buildyourmoxie thank you so much! your videos help me a lot to prepare
@@ghinaafiaputri80 😃 I’m so glad it’s been helpful! Thank you for watching! ☺️
How does Ichiran or Ippudo fare with those ramen?
I like my 5 ramen places more than ichiran!
I’m doing ippudo next time we visit cuz we ran out of time last time 😄.
I tend to like thicker noodles. Ichiran is skinny noodles. But ichiran was way better than I thought it would be since it is so hyped. I would go to ichiran again. But my 5 places first lol
@@buildyourmoxie Any nice meals to recommend in Hakone? I just realised the ryokan i booked is up at the Souzan area, quite secluded. Damn😅😅
@@Victor_YNWAeeeeeeeek! Does your ryokan offer kaiseki dinner that you can add on? We did that with ours for breakfast and dinner when we got our ryokan
If not, gora might have some stuff!
@@buildyourmoxie Yup. They do offer bfast & dinner as a whole package. Just afraid it's not enough for me. So Gora station yah? Thanks thanks
best and you miss tatsunoya? no.1 ramen in shinjuku. tsukemen here is better than in fuunji
Pig. not only yummy in ramen, its also great for petting lol
😅😅
slurp slurp slurp
Nom nom nom!!! This is you next year Hezki!!!
MINI PIGS!!!
Annie you have to do it when you go!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍
Fu Unji best dipping ramen who?? She proly haven't tried the Chuka Soba Tomita Ramen😅. That Ramen will dwarf any ramen as fas as i am concerned. Simply the best not even fu unji ramen comes close to how good that ramen is, it'll make you cry.😅 U can bet your bottom dollars mark my words.
Ooo that sounds delicious! Added to the list!
@@buildyourmoxie Pls go try it, i am sure youre gonna love it, it'll knock you off the ground 😂. Pls do shout out this comment after you try it out. For head start beware the line is almost half a day wait.😂
😱😱😱wow it must be so good!!! If I ever get a chance to try it, shout out for sure! 🙌
housenka also near shinjuku, really good
🤩added to my list!!!!
Thank you!!
If you love Ramen.. Mannnn. You're going to love Authentic Udon. It totally changed the way I see Udon I know there are many Udon Shops to enjoy in Japan. But there is one in Takamatsu.. I wanted to give the name but it is almost erased all you can read properly is the word Udon which is it's hiragana.. Boyy o boy 🥹 It is the best based on my experience..❤❤❤
I found it! Teraya Kokubonji!!! Self serve try their battered octopus as well.. I thought it was going to be rubbery. but damn it's a whole new level.. Imagine a near tender fried battered octopus .. 😭😭
and imagine it's only 600 yen. I think upgrading the bowl cost nothing you can go small medium and large bowl or I can't remember if there is extra large bowl.. cause I had the medium size and yet it was so much..
🤩🤩🤩 omg! Sounds amazing!!!!!
@@buildyourmoxie 😍❤️❤️
Omg!!!!!! 🤯🤯🤯🤯that sounds sooooo good!!! 😱😱😱
