  • Japanese wagashi are a must try when visiting Kyoto, so we had to hit up a few locations while we were in town!

      I like the different gum they have. I remember when I lived in Japan as a kid they had these different flavored gum like green apple and it came in a rectangular clear tube. I remember the different flavors tasting like the actual fruit! 🍓🍒🍎🍉🍑🍊🥭🍍🍌🍋🍈🍏🍐🥝🫐🍇

    Sarah really shines on info type stuff. Can tell she knows a lot about Japan. Would love to see more of that kind of content from her. X (ps that’s NOT a dig on Emma!!!!)

    • @TheLobstersoup
      @TheLobstersoup Před rokem +5

      Yeah, I wrote kinda the same before scrolling and seeing your comment. It would make sense to assume she took some notes beforehand. Emma probably did too. After all, the video needed a direction for different segments. The consistency Sarah comes out at with info makes me think it's planned, but the way it's presented makes me think it's spontaneous. I enjoy it either way :) and I learn!

    Kyoto really does have fantastic options for tasty and high-quality sweets, both traditional and otherwise. Seeking out those cool little tea house cafés was a favorite pastime of mine the first few times I visited. But these days, I’m more focused on the sake breweries and brew pubs. (For which there are also fantastic options!🍻 )

    My dear soul and friend, this is truly astonishing. What an incredible journey you allowed us to take on, and we truly appreciate it. I find myself struggling lately with anxiety and stress due to being overworked, or mainly I am doing it to myself. No boundaries and hard time to say no. That's all that brings this negativity, but I have been working really hard to gain back control, and not be a slave to these feelings and mindset any more. Your videos have been a true help and peaceful place to regain energy and feel empowered. Thank you so much and wishing you all the best :)

    Thanks for sharing that last cafe! I don't see a lot of people on CZcams talk about Gion (probably because filming issues), which is sad since I really want to see and learn more about it. The history of Geisha fascinates me so Gion has been on my list of places to go in Japan for years now.
    The neat thing about that cafe is it looks like they use a lot of soy in their sweets like their no bake cheese cake is soy! So for someone who is lactose intolerant...that is SO good to hear lol.

    Thanks for this! Really interested in wagashi and Kyoto is also one of my fave places ever. For sweets, I love anmitsu with matcha ice cream. I’ve never been to any cafe or restaurants in Gion ‘cause it’s a bit intimidating and i can’t really tell which are shops and which are private residences. Will definitely check out the ones you featured here when it’s already safe to travel again.

    I think it’s nice that they finally placed boundaries for tourists in Gion.. it is rather unpleasant to have a camera shoved in your face 24/7 when they are just trying to work. If I’m correct, you have to ask them first if a photo is ok.. they’re busy people so they don’t always have time for pictures :) glad they are keeping their culture alive

    Ooo...the Imperial Palace sweets joint looks beautifully uncomfortable! I want those chairs for no one to sit in. Also fun to see Sarah reminisce. It almost feels like she went "home". And I wanna try Yu-Mochi! Looks like a great little snacky.
    A TC video wouldn't be complete without the "low brow" humor and yeah, I laughed at that.
    And what is the fine for taking a picture of Maiko or Geisha in Gion?
    Kyoto is definitely on my bucket list. Thank you TC for showing a bit more of it other than the usual super popular tourism. Great work!
