Asakusa, is a traditional-style downtown area of Tokyo, known to Japanese as a Shitamachi, with its nostalgic Edo period vibe. The main areas can be a bit touristy but there are many local hidden street food gems in the back streets, some in plain sight, but buried between the countless shops. It’s hard from the outside looking in to know what’s the real deal so I thought it’s time to share with you my recent heavyweight Asakusa food hitters. This is a Japan street food tour in the Tokyo Asakusa area and guide on where to go and how to get there. Check the links before to see the exact street food restaurant location. Enjoy this easy travel guide to Asakusa and all of its Japanese street food pleasures.

Geez paolo, i could have used these tipps on the 10th xD
I was just there today on Hoppy Street
🤣🤣🤣 I love hearing Maiko laughing in tha background 🤭🤩❤️
the potato skin is edible？ 😄
⚠️Caution⚠️ These places are popular for Japanes instagrammers; extremely clouded in the weekends. Especially the crepe shop at 3 pm will form a LONG que, so avoid that time. You will also miss some of the popular menues if you don't go there early, cause they run out fast. And like Paolo said, there are places specially designed for eating, so be careful not to eat and walk. There are also animal cafes at this area, so if you love shiba, cats, and owls, Asakusa is your spot😊
Your English is very good but noticed a couple mistakes! It’s “crowded” and “queue”. Thanks for the tips. Cheers!
As somebody with money, this is a high tip to get! Thanks! 😊
@@davidk4082wtf with the grammar shark.... Hope you know more than 2languages to correct others
@@davidk4082 Oops! That is embarrassing😂 Thanks for correcting me❤️
@@erick1fpb I appreciate your kindness. But hey, I now know how to spell crowded and queue! Yay
01:26 🍠 Emopeep serves incredibly sweet baked Japanese sweet potatoes in Asakusa, known for their natural sweetness and slow 3-hour bake.
03:46 🍵 Kotobuki Shun offers premium Uji matcha crepes, using Kyoto-crafted matcha, perfect for matcha lovers.
06:56 🍛 Kugi Noor serves crispy fried curry bread with a unique texture, a must-try for curry lovers.
09:22 🍜 Manu offers a value-packed bowl of ramen for only 350 Yen, making it a great option for budget-conscious foodies.
11:14 🍱 Unana's eel hits the mark with its buttery soft texture, well-prepared and packed with flavor.
13:01 🥞 Sudu Jito's Mochi Okonomiyaki pancakes are a delightful blend of flavors and textures, featuring a savory Mochi filling.
I love a TLDR! Thanks for the time stamps
Made by Tammi AI or something.
At least proof read your AI crap, its Komugi no Dorei not Kugi Noor
I love that you still didn't fix your comment even though you are fully aware that it's wrong.
@@bestja2137 I am glad I made your day a little better.
I really wish to see " a day in life" and "behind the counter" videos done by Paolo from all over the world. I just LOVE watching your videos. The aesthetics, the style, everything seems to amaze me. I usually watch your videos while I'm havin' food and it totally adds alot to the experience. Great work!! Lots of love 🎉
Can’t wait to see a Behind the Counter in those Indian street foods…
hell nahhh

Paolo has to be so full at the end of these videos! He makes me so hungry watching these street food videos of his.
another great video showing off Asakusa. there is so much to see, eat, do in Asakusa. exploring it after 9pm is also great because you'll be mostly alone and everything is so picturesque
I love all your videos, but I’ve really missed your street food reviews! Thanks for making a new one❤️
Thank you for another awesome insightful video Paolo and team! We’ll be visiting Tokyo in March next year for 2 and half weeks. Can’t wait to try out some of the places from this video!
Ah the classic OG Paolo faves around Tokyo neighborhoods. All for some 2023 updated food tours!
I love hearing Maikos happy laugh in the background
We happen to be in Asakusa right now and tried two of these places today: the ramen for breakfast and curry pan for lunch! We will see if there is any unagi left for dinner 😂 thank you for the recommendations!
Best video yet! Love hearing you speak Japanese without the English overdub and seeing you do the types of videos that made me subscribe! ❤

Thanks Paolo
The Matcha crepe looked so delicous. :D
The Eel Rice ball looks the most delicious and the Curry looks delicious I have heard of Curry from an Anime but have never seen what it actually looks like. and the Street food looks more Hygenic than Indian Street vendors. but i need more day-in-the-life videos from you.
Looks delicious!
Amazing video!
I have decided, I AM going to Japan in the next couple years. I’ve been thinking about it my whole life. Very excited to ride all the world-class public transit, and I do want to stay in Asakusa! I want to go for at least a week and a half so I can take a couple days after landing to adjust to jet lag and just vibe and explore and marvel at simple things like conbinis and street food wheee.
