alright guys good morning first of all so what is going on here is our
traditional Japanese breakfast at a ryokan you know yesterday we filmed a
tour of the ryokan then you should eat dinner at the ryokan in her bedroom for
breakfast we're eating in a communal dining area but everything looks just as
special like we have lots of little dishes presentation is on point so yeah
we're gonna come breakfast and show you what that's like
Oh Oh orange what are you yeah so a fan is wearing his lovely Kellogg's t-shirt
yeah the ladies are very you're gonna get a real kick out of it they want to
get in the back and the front who knows there could be curse words on
it for all oh I picked that up in Shinjuku in Tokyo by the Harajuku you
can hurt you okay so yeah very hard you could so anyways the traditional
Japanese breakfast has arrived and his glorious spread and I'm just gonna give
you a little tour of everything we've got right where shall we begin for soups
first let's pour some tea some tea yes and green tea you've already had a
little bit and yeah little comes in a lovely little pot oh look at the steam
coming off and I love it just love the color of its in yeah check that out it's
a light tea it's not a matcha just like green tea smells very nice for breakfast
I do really like that okay so before I dig into anything else so we had a
choice between orange juice and tea and coffee so we chose to get orange juice
mm-hmm which is really nice over here we have some kind of it looks kind of raw
egg no yeah I'm not a huge fan of all you know I will turn my golly we'll try
it and then look at look at the presentation of all these little plates
so many little bomb windows let's unveil this so this is the
whitefish that we tried for street food oh yeah in Kamakura yeah yeah they had
ice cream with fish yeah that's a familiar sight
what is it so it's white something it's called white bait yeah white bait may be
able to translate it and if their peers to be is the rice underneath I kind of
like radish or all radish okay anything that would make sense so what you have
there you have some pickled fruits over here okay and over here there's tofu oh
it's really good looks like a chest I got a little chest that next to it we
have some pickled vegetables I believe we have looks like red radish I think
that's a fish piece to be honest I draw that one in how to push eat it okay so
that's what it would be and then we have greens more greens lots here is like the
staple of a Japanese breakfast anytime we've had Japanese breakfast it's always
come with bright rice and miso soup okay and then also we have got a little green
salad with some looks like maybe like kind of a mustard dressing or no maybe a
sesame dressing oh yes yes there got some corn in there thank you ingredients
for salad indeed and then over here we have some beef there may be probably
Hida beef that was cooking for us just a few moments ago yeah so anyways enough
ramble ramble let's try all of this that's fine all right time for you to
try yours I'm gonna start with the beef mm-hmm not saving the best for last
million investment first best or first
the opposite of delayed gratification you like it it's just such a sweet
tender no I love I love that it's lost we haven't had it with any other jacket
like we haven't had that in any other any other dish since we've been in Japan
so far like we have some caramelized onions in there as well yeah that's a
nice juiciness to it I'm a fan of miso early in the morning yeah this one has
the the spongy tofu which I like yeah miso in the city lines is kind of
special I feel like it's a little different from flavor it does have a
stronger flavor it tends to be a bit darker concentrated more concentrated
and the color is a little darker yeah we've had that a few times now and we've
noticed that let's try this a melon this is like the most Western looking I don't
on the plate well aside from the cornet you wouldn't typically see corn in a
salad yes it has lettuce I'm just written has lettuce cucumber
tomatoes young corn a bit of a sweet dressing yeah pretty good yeah I do like
it and now for the miniature dishes got these are the greens no one is
interested I don't even know what it is it has a very unusual flavor mmm look at
the presentation with this little leaf on top isn't that cool
yeah tofu in the chestnut yeah the attention to detail here is amazing it
really is this is by far the most complete traditional Japanese breakfast
we've had we've had more basic versions where it's been like the soup the rice
than miso fish some protein and maybe a little bit of pickled vegetables but
we've never had anything with quite this spread I have to say the water chestnut
if that's what it is yeah it tastes like a potato yeah it's really starchy it
started here that one in for some carrot that's pickled that's a little bit sour
well I was just doing more salad oh my gosh
pickled veggies also I've just realized mm-hmm I've been using both ends of my
chopsticks they're both dirty whoops double you've
been going at you've been going on and on both sides you know what do you
regret not having that with ice cream when we had the chance
no no I kind of wish we had it yeah we've mentioned that before about the
the ice cream in Kamakura yeah you can get it with like the white beat fish I'm
sure you chicken going on no way and we ended up getting I think the black
sesame ice cream with like oh that that was so interesting to going back to
breakfast my favorite item would have to be the beef yeah ice like that's just an
amazing sauce yeah all right let me film in the miso my miso is almost gone
lovely presentation a great way to wrap up our stay here at this Ryokan yeah we're the
first people here that only people here so far found erful there are a few other
tables that have been prepared so there are other guests coming
we are the first the greens remind me of that sensei meal yeah mountain
vegetables orange mmm those are good try the other ones quite juicy
mmm-hmm oh I like these ones even more well it has a strong flavor and look
totes wrap wrapped up like this that's really I mean one like little roll like
little rolls moving on to the tofu mmm it's really juicy has a lot of water
content no water chestnut
hmm not too tasty yeah now fish paste have that with a bit of rice I think no
doctor really small team Wow I probably wouldn't have had such a big
bite if I realized it was not for this part I'm excited to have the fish mm-hmm
such a light flavor isn't it when you normally have that come when I think of
fish like that I usually think of it as being like more salty mm-hmm but that
just has a very light taste Drinking miso so well has such a rich flavor yeah there's
nothing worse than a watered-down these oh yeah
garden vegetables here with some corn
no I farm corn makes some interesting appearances in Japanese food I've seen
it in pizza I've seen it in salads that otherwise wouldn't have it in other
parts of the world so why not have some more corner ok so I'm saving my favorite
thing for the end so that means I have to try the egg first yeah we actually
gave us a little spoon for it that's right next to your glass cup there thing ok it
might be easier since the chips a runny egg
I'm not looking forward to this part
Sam does not like runny egg in case you've missed the memo no thanks well
get onto this quickly sauce for the sweets beef oh my gosh my losses are
music miss sweet but it's also a bit tangy hmm super tender me that made up
for them kind of yucky bite of egg I really like everything here aside from
the egg so it's gonna be a wonderful breakfast and it looks like it's a lot
of food but when you consider that the portions are small and in total a lot of
it's like healthy ingredients like vegetables and stuff I actually don't
feel like I'm gonna be - stuff is just gonna be the right amount yeah a lot of
it is just like a bite or two there are little teeth little taste of everything
you know beautifully presented make sure is now let's enjoy enjoy so that is a
wrap for breakfast we pretty much demolished everything
except for the runny egg yeah oh oh yeah lovely presentation everything was super
tasty that was a really fun way to finish up our stay here at a ryokan we
are going a sightseeing now we're gonna be heading up to shirakawa-go so want to
say goodbye and we'll you see with more videos from Japan on
