Owner speaks amazing English. Props on him and his amazing Okonomiyaki.
For real! Fujita-san made the whole experience so much fun!
Interesting, I've never seen it done that way but I'm sure it's tasty, I love cheap eats like okonomiyaki and takoyaki
It was really good !
@@JunkFoodJapan Next time I'm in Japan, I'll be consulting the bible that is JFJ! 🙌😁
Dear Editor: 42 is indeed the meaning of life. Thanks for your hard work.
BoooM @paul
okonomiyaki always breaks my mind as it looks like a dessert with the sauce and mayonnaise, just visually, it is so confusing. Iove it. Thank you so much for showing how it was made, maybe now my brain won't get confused as much ahah
That Mayo and sauce combo is amazing
Lmao that quick parrot clip art. That got me. Wasn't expecting such a subtle poke fun. Love the Looney Tunes-esque hand of the creator (or editor in this case).
Happy days. And the team does amazing work
That symphony of 'mm' cracked me up, and the owner's English is pretty bloody good. Amazing effort on Fujita-san to speak English throughout! Good stuff as usual Nick! Keep going!
Thanks Man, I feel like we got a little lucky with Fujita-San but more so it was very good eduction
Savory Pancake. That's how I describe Okonomiyaki who haven't tried it.
Editing is getting wilder and wilder... I love it. The music touch too.
I was having dinner while watching and I asked myself "why am I here and not in Japan, possibly out-eating Nick under the table?".
Which is somewhat unfair as I am a decent cook and my dinner wasn't that bad.
P.S. Fujitasan looked like he could still be in high-school. I really need to know how the Japanese manage to look so young.
He is early twenties for sure. Such a nice guy! He is in to singing and making music
My sincere appreciation for checking out my recommendation of okonomiyaki, JFJ. That was a fun video to watch; finding the biggest okonomiyaki I've ever seen and showing how to make it (will absolutely get to). Thank you again and great job!
You are welcome Will !
That 42 earned an immediate like from me. Don't forget your towels! Also okonomiyaki is amazing.
Edit: the karaoke bit had me rolling. And the subtitles after. Great editing as always!
Finally someone who got the mmm mmm 🤔 I thought it was brilliant work from the team
I am definitely going to sakuratei when I go to Japan! That looked so fun and tasty!
It’s a really cool place you’ll love it
Okonomiyaki is one of my favorite Japanese dishes. I make it at home fairly regularly, actually!
Best I ever had was at Houzenji Sampei in Osaka. Had it with mochi and cheese. Freakin' amazing!
That was a DAYUM thick okonomiyaki he made though. 😳
I have been here for 30plus years and never had a okonomiyaki that good
The first Japanese meal I had was okonomiyaki... So it brings back memories...
Perfect presentation for one of the junkiest food in Japan.
Love the show...
Thank you SpWorks I appreciate your support
That looks unbelievably UMAI!
Right!
Fujitsu-San seems super cool, hopefully 2023 I can check his place out
You won’t regret it
The episode did not disappoint! What a unique okonomiyaki style as well. Having lived in Osaka, I've had a lot of okonomiyaki and none of them looked quite like that.
Me too, this was really good actually
Oof, that-look-so-GOOD. The place looks really cool, has awesome mural art on the walls and the dude are very friendly. Great video as always! 🙌🏻
I really appreciate how all of your videos are safe to watch while eating food 😁 your editor does a great job of making something as simple as making a junk food pancake entertaining to watch!
We got a great team! Hang around for more food stories
The production value and Nicholas' persona alone deserve millions of subscribers. This is a fantastic channel!
Thank you for your message.
Bonus points for the Hitchhikers Guide reference!
The back of the menu's should say Don"t Panic!
My favourite is Hiroshima style okonomiyaki. Damn I need that in my life again. 👍🏻
Yeah this place is cool 😎
I was on vacation so I could only certify this banger right now
Vacation is good. We all need it from time to time! Enjoy
Looks like the perfect breakfast food. Got to be better for you than Pop-tarts and cereal.
You got that right!
I love binge watching before and after work! Damn I'm hungry for some Okonomiyaki.
BoooM this place is amazing 🤩
I was not expecting him to speak English. He was so good at it. I wonder if he studied overseas?
He lives in LA for a couple years to do music actually
Just gonna drop a Dr. Who reference like that
And hitchhikers guide 😂😊
this looks like the perfect dish after a night out
Yeah I can see that happening...
He flipped it like a Boss. Lol 🧑🍳👨🍳
You got that right !
Just got back from here. The okonomiyaki is legit! Granted, this was also the first time I've had okonomiyaki in my life, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it was delicious and filling! Thanks Nick, and thanks Sakura Tei staff!
Cool TOMODACHI and happy to inspire
a little Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy reference in there, 6:15, i like it haha
So long and thanks for all the Yaki
That recap 😂 the food looks amazing
It’s really good
I have been making something similar to this for some time now. Got that idea from rice cakes but didn't know it was a dish in itself. I'll refine my techniques after this video and brag I can make this lol
It looks freaking delicious
I do love takoyaki so I'm excited to try Okonomiyaki if I can find it in the Chicagoland! What really gets me drooling is the layering of the mayo at the end. Gahhh I'm drooling right now!
Yeah it was really good… slightly burnt sauce and Mayo was crushing it
I too like discussing the meaning of life when my food cooks haha. Awesome video as always!
Cheers!
Junk Food Japan and it’s 42
Okonomiyaki is really such an amazing dish, and it just seems so simple!
You got that right!
What I like about okonomiyaki is that you just need one pan or hot plate, some prep time to mix the batter (the yamaimo really makes the batter) and bacon, lots of bacon.
Also, heterogeneity!
I like lots of bacon 🥓 LOL
Love this stuff! Nothing beats Hiroshima style imo
I am not an expert on this but this one was amazing
That mmmm mmmmmm ballad is quite the ear pleaser. Also, moar memes please 🔨🔨🤙🏾🤙🏾
High quality okonomiyaki, high quality editing. !
trust me the Boys read all these comments to try and always make better content
I need this in my life
Yeah we all need that in our lives
Gimme! Nicolas! I want all of the food You have eaten so far and every to come! Onegashimasu!
it take 15 minutes to watch 11 minute JFJ video because video itself is 11 minutes + 4 minutes of going to kitchen for food
LMFAO 🤣
I love okonomiyaki and I will absolutely hit up that place when I come to Japan next time.
Totally worth it for sure highly recommend, just for the experience of the place
I fell asleep watching okonomiyaki ASMR on the train. When I woke up I was in the Bronx with only my underwear & socks.😴🤷♂️
That’s quite something
damn ur channel is godly already. excited for more vids, at the expense of your health of course
Fear not! I work out regularly
Great video. You are giving me so many ideas. How about doibg a junk food espoide for a family with kids. Where would a good place to eat. Kids being kids they are like wheres the chicken nuggets ahahah. But no western food.
I like this idea for sure! Let me talk to the team !
@@JunkFoodJapan u want idea on what my kids eat and dont like ,let me know hahah
I'll definitely be going there!
Highly recommend it
Cool shop, that okonomiyaki looked so good, I want to try cooking one myself, I love bacon and eggs, pancakes, so this looks perfect, and I know okonomiyaki is really popular in Japan 👌
this place is really a trip have already been back a few times simply for the fun of it
I am going to follow this recipe close as I can. I have a Blackstone griddle in the back yard!!!! YUM!🤤
This is a great channel. I think it's gonna take off sooner rather than later. Best of luck.
Thank you! Feel free to hang around for more food stories
@@JunkFoodJapan Oh don't worry, I will hang around for sure. I've been even subscribed for some time now. Keep the content coming!
I always wanted to try this!
I want you to try this too!
Great video. You're making some quality content. Short and sweet. Well done Nic! Can't wait to to watch the next one
Thank you Adonis ! What a great name. Hang around for more food stories and feel free to share so we can grow together
Never seen it done quite like this, but I'm sure it tastes amazing!
You got that right!
Once more, very well edited
BoooM
Notifaction gang
You win today good sir
Definitely something I would like to attempt to make now. And when I finally get to visit Japan, I shall look that restaurant up! 👍👍
It’s a really cool place and make sure to put the back alley where you can graffiti for free. They repaint the wall once a month so it stay fresh
As an Italian I am always fascinated by these Japanese dishes... food is art and life... you always make me hungry... Mmmm... sandwich and beer, now !!!
You called it. Now I’m hungry
Please high five whoever edits your videos 😂 Amazing work as always, dude
Will do
That recap section was helpful 😄, please do include it in similar future vídeos if possible
Yeah this video was an experiment of a how to do! I think it really worked out well
That looks great! Also makes you super hungry :).
Have been back to that place after the show aired, it’s just real cool place.
Really love the format and the style of your videos.
Keep it up man! I have a feeling this channel will blow up real soon! ;)
You never know? But feel free to share it around and hang around for more food stories
man ur gettin me mad pumped for ma visit to japan man !!! okomomiyaki is def on top of ma food list 😏🙌🏽
You should totally mark this place Sakura Tei in your calendar!
already have 🫡 and btw this is the third time ur replying to my comments, appreciate it a lot n i also appreciate content creators/ youtubers who take their time answering questions and reply to comments. shows that they really care about feedback from their fans 💪💪 really looking forward for more videos to come, keep it up dude UMAI
Amazing video once again, love the editing and the humour in general
Thank you 🙏 feel free to share it around so we can grow together
definitely want to go here someday
It’s a really cool place
I love okonomiyaki. I try to make sure I get it at least once or twice whenever I'm in Japan. My favorite is Hiroshima style with the soba noodles on the bottom! I've never had one that thick before, so I'll have to try to swing by this place to give it a try. I hope they have an option where they make it for you though lol
Just ask them and they are sure to help you out. The trick is to have patience to cook it properly!
@@JunkFoodJapan Good to hear. Thanks :) Hopefully my stomach and hold out lol
Great Video, always happy to see your newest Video pop uo! Okonomiyaki is one of my favourite foods as well, Osaka or Hiroshima style. Sadly my Kanto wife prefers Monja... But I will go and check out this store for sure!
Monja is fun but I always seem to burn my mouth
Another awesome video!!! I so can’t wait to try it!!! Yeah first time I had takoyaki I couldn’t taste anything for a week afterwards…. So hot
It’s a real risk for sure
not first, but I'm still happy to watch this video!
You're first in my heart friend.
But not in the comments, you're like third or something - but still impressive.
Amazing video as always! That looks delicious. Owner seems like such a nice guy! And he is very Eigojyouzu!
He is the manager but such a nice guy
I was so exited to see a new episode. And as alwasy, it was so much fun. Now how do I get Okonomiyaki here in rural Bavaria 🤔
I actually think you can improvise on the ingredients and make one in your house. If you can’t get the sauce try some soy sauce and Mayo! Just go light on the soy sauce as it’s super salty. Good luck with it and if you decide to try let me know how it goes
Okonomiyaki seems to be half cooking, half performance art.
I've had the chance to try okonomiyaki and takoyaki, and both times I was in a rush and couldn't try them, and missing out on both are in my top 5 regrets in life. lol
Aaaah that’s too bad. It’s a essential part of Japanese culture
Great video as always, owner comes across as proper nice guy. Dish reminds me of British Bubble and squeak (another left over type dish)
Interesting? I have never had that
looks a lot better than the Japanese restaurant in my country for the same price when compared with size because my country's version is small and not thick like this.
But my final choice I think this is looking better for ItIt's looks very juicy and yummy 🤩
It really was the best okonomiyaki I have ever had
That’s definitely a different take on that dish. I would give it a try next time I’m in harajuku! Great vibes from both the owner and the host!
Thank you it was really a trip
This looks really amazing. I am afraid if i ever go to japan i might come back about 20kg heavier xD
It’s a real thing! Guilty pleasures come at a price. Go to the gym to eat more food !
Fun to see a unique take on a classic! Speaking of, I remember there was a place in Kyoto called Halal Ramen that always had really high ratings, but the one time I went by it was basically rented out or something. Would be really fun if you could do a video there, though since it looks like the next video is ramen/noodle-focused, I can understand if yet another one would have to wait.
There are so many ramen shops and most won’t let you film. But I am sure going to make a full ramen series out of it one day
42! When you know, you know...
Yeah that sounds right!
Heck yeah
Gosh darn good time
@@JunkFoodJapan You know that's right
Okonomiyaki looks like such a mess, and I'm 100% here for it.
I just found out that it does t have to be a mess
The musical mmmmmm's 🤣
Mmm mmm mm mmmmmmmm mmm
Wish there were any okonomiyaki places here in Copenhagen, absolutely love it and I'm so bad at making it hehe.
Hej følger du med fra Danmark? Det er rigtigt sejt
@@JunkFoodJapan ja det gør jeg :) fra lille København hehe.
Okay, I laughed at the recap music.
It was brilliant edit for sure
@@JunkFoodJapan that sounds like you don't do the editing?
I want to try one with cheese and bacon.
Yeah that is always a golden combination no matter what you choose to eat!
Engagement
I went back recently and had a great dinner with the family
An interesting take on okonomiyaki, the one almost looks cake/huge burger like whereas I usually see them more thick pancake like.
It looks like you really enjoyed it, did you manage to finish the whole thing?
We actually finished this one! And another one we ordered to make sure it wasn't a fluke... and maybe a third...
@@JunkFoodJapan at this rate you might need to invite beardmeetsfood or akin over and revisit some of these places!
Probably it's their version of a Deep-dish pizza. Than the standard flat one.
@@inisipisTV indeed, I wonder how the thickness impacts the texture
what i would give to try that .... probably money
Totally worth it
The bonito powder made me a little sad, the dancing flakes are one of the highlights of Okonomiyaki. Otherwise an awesome experience!
Thank you 🙏
"Please put this bonito"
I rebuke your bonito.
My food tastes aside, your editor deserves a raise 😂
(Don't get me wrong, I love okonomiyaki, I just don't like the bonito flakes)
It actually complemented the sauce really good
@@JunkFoodJapan well, they do say your tastebuds change every few years, I'll give it another try when I come to Japan in 4 years 😉
This just looks like an excellent dish for lazy people who like a lot of ingredients in a single dish without much prep,
and its grilled so not as bad as deep fried stuff.
Yeah it’s fun food to share with friends and family!
I’m skeptical about this… was it still tasty without being crunchy? Or did it not matter 🤔
The vibe of that restaurant is really cool though. I’m definitely gonna pop by and try it!
Yeah it’s totally worth a day trip
I was in Düsseldorfs Little Tokyo recently but failed to grab an Okonomiyaki 😭
it can be fun sharing over cold beer and friends! you should check it out next time you get a chance
The ingredients make all the difference, but they showed what's in the mixture just for like half a second
Opinions on Japanese Mayo vs Mayo everywhere else?
Kewpie Mayo best in the world for sure
Notice :
The Transcript at 5:21 has a wrongly picked up word in it which may cause de mo ne ti sa tion ,
I only noticed because the subtitles were on.
@Junk Food Japan
Yikes, I swear those auto captions are both a blessing and a curse 😅Thanks for the heads up! Fixed.
@@JunkFoodJapan More than happy to point it out 😀
I enjoy the content and it is really impressive that you remain so fit while consuming copious amounts of food😄
What is the tune at 8:54?
Hmmm 🤔 what do you say @theboys
MMmmm..Mmmmmmmm
Mmmmm mmmm mmmmmm
The longer the beard gets the more wolverine vibes I get
That’s something I am happy to hear! Especially since I have been experiencing a lot with my beard.
I dont think there is something like okonomiyaki in Europe.. Maybe pancakes with fill it in.
They are easy enough to make. Can be done on a frying pan too
Classic Japanese junk food.
Junk food rating. 8/10
Really I thought it was a 10
@@JunkFoodJapan the content is 10 as always, I’m rating the junk food scale 😉
yolo
So okonomiyaki is the Japanese version of a quiche.
Kinda… no I don’t think so 🤔
