gastronomy tour it's going to be pretty
fun it's actually an onsen gastronomy
tour pretty excited about it so we're
actually going to be doing the onsen a
little bit later in another video but
this one we're just going to be focusing
on eating ourselves silly i can't wait
for it actually the prefecture is
actually famous for oranges but the town
is famous for fish so hopefully we get
to try a little bit of both i'm excited
should be good uh but before we get
started i'd say the sponsor of this
video which is necked
packed with poles
but yeah let's go get started let's go
let's go
hey guys hello we're walking i do enjoy
some walking we're walking towards ben
tenjima what are you walking like we're
walking this is how a normal person
looks wow they need roomies
but yeah we're gonna go to ben tenjima
which uh looks like a really cute little
island we're not going on the island i
think you can when the sea is out but
we're going to go to a cafe nearby
quickly never drink that coffee but this
is nice i like the little walking tour
because you get to see a bunch of stuff
that you wouldn't see if you just like
got on a bus or if you got in a car or
whatever
[Music]
we found ben 10 jima
ben 10
beautiful i love the little shrine it's
gorgeous do you know what ben 10 is i
actually just found out what ben 10
means like ben 10 is the the god of
uh i think it's art and wisdom okay
which is pretty cool there's actually
many different benten jimas in japan
you're telling me yeah i went to one in
izumo and it's that one looks really
really beautiful too but yeah it's just
gorgeous
see you at the cafe
[Music]
we've made it we're in a
they specialize in a light refreshments
and you can see ben 10 jim from the
island yeah this time we've been given a
plate of a tasting plate of different
bits of tuna
and i've never had tuna like this
because the pairing is so interesting
there's little bits of cheese there's
kiwi there's tomato there's like a
little baguette it's definitely
different i feel like tuna for me is
like sushi or like sashimi so i'm
excited to see how it pairs together
[Music]
i feel like it's being treated as
prosciutto yeah
yeah that's what it is yes it's like the
initial tune of flavor and then it all
mixes together
and it feels kind of like a softer
prosciutto you're gonna love the kiwi
yeah you get this like prosciuttoy like
the salmon flavor to it then like
it was like sweetness from the kiwi and
the cracker like balances it all out it
is that's did you put the whole thing in
your mouth
right
that is fantastic that is really good
i would never thought of pairing those
together
once in my life that has been tested
well done really really good that's kind
of what i want for a gastronomy too i
want to try new things yeah i'd be
surprised so this is excellent
most definitely
all right so uh we're going to finish up
here then and then we can head to the
next spot very excited

we found a place to sit at egypt so we
can finally enjoy the sushi we got from
messiah
yeah we also got two kinds of sashimi
from this place uh they're different
kinds of fish and it's nice to be able
to compare them it's
two different kinds of tuna this one's
big eye tuna and the other one's a tuna
i can't pronounce it's
from abercrombie
and finch
tuna isn't it
albacore yes
albacore tuna and big eye tuna yeah i'm
going to try some of the meharizushi
i've had this many years ago
i came to i believe this area to make it
and the outside is a mustard leaf
mustard leaf and
yeah inside this rice and fish it's been
a long time i can't remember
i really love the flavor of the leaf
it's like
pickly
a little bit like a little bit of a tang
with mustard
it's really refreshing too it's like
you get the tightness from the leaves a
little bit spicy i believe it's the
mustard leaves a little spicy for the
mustard as well
the inside is like
like a wasabi
pickled vegetable thing inside of mine
oh that is divine that is so fast that's
really good right so we're going to
finish this fish indeed all the wind and
then we have
a juice grape i'm so excited for juice

[Laughter]
he's selling the truth
no lies from this guy i have been
exaggerating that's evidence right there
megan juice is so good because it
doesn't taste like orange juice it's got
this kind of extra flavor to it and uh
it's like sharper yeah yeah it's i don't
know how to describe it it's super sweet
it's super smooth i feel like it's less
sharp than a lot of orange juice yeah
it's like more rounded flavor i feel
yeah so there's more going on like
there's more like flavor to it like when
i drink orange juice i feel like it's
just like high orange it's like one like
yeah it's like oh that's yeah that's
already juiced but mikkon is like
