hey guys welcome to another video so
today we've come to kyoto station and it
is our goal to have a food challenge
where
my opponent myself we will assign to
each other
two different types of food that we have
to in a matter of 30 minutes
find in and around the station joe knows
the place a lot better than i do but i
have an incredible killer instinct so i
anticipate a great victory at the end of
this and as i say to level the playing
field we're going to choose for each
other whatever it is that the other has
to find so
what shall i get today what am i what
have i got to find a few days it's
either going to be a choice of sushi
tacos
or karage or gyoza
okay you're allowing you're allowing me
four yeah okay that's cool so i gotta
get two of those things i've been given
four options that's kind of cool we have
some flexibility there all right so for
yourself he's got to find let's do
sweets for joe so he has to find donuts
cookies
cupcakes
or what's one more sweet that you enjoy
tai chu
i too oh yeah those are delicious so
we're going to embark on this may the
most
well
versed in the area win and find their
items the quickest and enjoy them the
most
let's go do it you go that way i'll go
this way let's go
so he gave me a challenge to find some
donuts here at kyoto station but
actually i've been here for many years
and i do know a place
so let's go
all right guys we're almost there just
around the corner
[Music]
so i've become here for many many years
what i didn't expect today is actually
quite busy
can't wait to eat these donuts
our guys have given the challenge to
find the closest dome store within kyoto
station vicinity
i've been here many years and i
remembered all mr donors just around the
corner
so um we're on a bit of a time challenge
gone in here big queue
managed to grab the last custard cream
so i'm going to sculpt this down
and then get on to the next challenge
but if you're into pastries and sweet
things are all around kyoto there's many
many great homemade bakeries and stuff
like this and yeah on to the next
challenge
[Music]
all right he gave me the challenge to
find these four things i think it's
actually it's not going to be so bad he
knows the place better than i do but i
have a secret weapon which is
sando food hall here at kyoto station so
they have a wide variety and i think i
might be able to get down here and nail
both of them in one place which will
make our trip
exceedingly efficient and i will take
the gold ribbon
metal
let's go
we've gotten downstairs now and i've
managed to find the food board for this
particular
uh what would you call this this would
be like a food court right
now i was given the floor that i was
supposed to get and luckily we can
discover it here on this food board that
they have
gyoza as well as conveyor belt sushi the
one problem is for the conveyor belt i'm
probably going to have to sit down we'll
scope it out inside there but as much as
that may dig into our time a little bit
i don't think it's going to prevent me
from again taking the gold ribbon also
known as the gold medal let's get in
here follow me
follow me follow me
it is much much nicer in here okay we're
gonna do a little look around now
we found our guilds in place let's go
make an order
[Music]
okay
we got the order made it was only 450
and so very affordable and they've given
us one of these little timers here that
as soon as the gyoza is ready this will
buzz we'll go pick it up and we can
continue with our adventure we're
definitely a good state because
gyoza don't take that long to prepare so
i think they'll come out of the kitchen
really fast but for now
we wait
[Music]
lovingly prepared in the basement
i would expect this quality of gyoza in
a restaurant that would go and sit down
and out on the street so
they've done very well here and i think
we're ready to move on to the next so i
will not be defeated by my fellow
compatriot today in our search for the
fastest most delicious food around kyoto
tower
all right guys uh i thought the
challenge was going to be a lot harder
not because this cafe we're going to
next best cookies in town
so here it is guys
okay once again we're here on the time
challenge
uh we're in kyoto station but i
immediately thought about this place
because it's less than a five minute
walk
uh they serve up delicious
sweets and pastries but in actual fact
it's one of my favorite cafes in kyoto
because they serve amazing specialty
coffee and if you're here in kyoto
definitely recommend a visit here
okay so the beauty of us having chosen
here is that he's going to be running
around everywhere whereas mike yozo is
right here
sushi is right there
so let's go get it follow me
got it i think we have to eat it that's
part of the challenge but
actually i've already eaten lunch and
after that gyoza i'm so full
but
for this video we're going all the way
we want to beat this time so how quickly
can i get this in me let's see
okay one
all right
before it's finished we gotta get back
to where we started
i'll see if i'm there before him
we'll see if i beat him
they're the first ones here
challenge one i'm just gonna sit as soon
as joe shows up we'll have a few remarks
i'm sure he'll
gracefully accept defeat and we can wrap
this one up
[Music]
welcome to the end of the video where i
have
managed to come out the other side of it
triumphant
now we did a challenge today where we
were supposed to run around and find
this food and i think something is lost
in just how good it is and how much you
can enjoy coming to kyoto station
finding a really really nice lunch or
treats and all that cuisine that you
find around kyoto that should be
enjoyed with time well taken
patience and appreciation for all the
flavors that they have on offer here but
it was fun going today what do i get
what's my reward for defeating you sir
do you have one
you beat me i give you a handshake all
right that's good enough you know
respect and admiration and i've only
lived here for a short period of time so
this means a great deal to me
thank you very much for coming on today
we really hope you enjoyed this we
really hope that it inspires you to come
and check out around kyoto station even
if you only have a little bit of time
because i hope we've shown today that
you can actually uh get around and see a
lot that they have on offer for food a
very very very short window if that's
all that you have
this was a blast to make
not much else to say other than that
take care have a great new year have a
great 2022 take care hug the ones you
