    the water in the soba was supposed to be added to the soba noodles itself, not into the cup, its to stop the noodles from sticking and rehydrate them

    I remember having the katsu sando on my previous trip and it was really good! I think convenience stores in Japan are really God sent if you are travelling on a budget.
    Btw the pudding has this little tab at the bottom that you can break to release the air so that the pudding can fall nicely no need for slamming 😂😂😂

    • @jimmykimtv
      @jimmykimtv  Před rokem +9

      The food was really amazing for how much they are! Some definitely better than the others, but most of them were really impressive.
      Also, that's a really cool design for the pudding that I didn't know about!

  • @KirkKiyosadaTome
    @KirkKiyosadaTome Před rokem +29

    Another fun vid! Pro tip: Put the wasabi directly on the soba, along one of the noodles in the bunch that you grab. It will have a much stronger taste than when diluted in the broth. Also, when I was way younger, Ozeki One Cup sake was super popular because it was not only inexpensive, but came with a plastic reusable lid so that you could store any leftover sake or any other beverage when you took it to a picnic. All poor families' glassware consisted mainly of One Cup glasses with their labels removed, haha.

    there is usually a pointy thing at the bottom of the pudding packaging that you can break, that allows air in, which allows the pudding to slip out easily without effort or banging.

  • @divavivadiva
    @divavivadiva Před rokem +28

    For the pudding, you can break the little stick sticking out at the bottom to let the air in so the pudding comes out easily 😊 It's called pucchin pudding because "pucchin" describes the sound when you break the stick lol
