  • street market called ameyoko

  • And this is a recommendation from my buddy John from only in Japan in this market if you break the name down I may also

  • Stands for America and that's because right after the World War two a lot of American goods were sold here

  • So this used to be the site of a black market also, ameyoko is short for a maiya

  • Yokocho which means candy alley because apparently candy was was also sold here

  • Today this market is home to over a hundred and eighty store selling everything from bags to clothing to groceries

  • Of course, of course, there's food here

  • that's why I'm here and I'm here on the weekend which might not be the best place to be there because it is

  • Crowded but I'm starving. So I'm just gonna walk around and see what they're seeing eat

  • It's really a mix of different types of who's here you got kebabs

  • Chinese food, why should I Chinese food looks really really good here

  • There's actually a ton of Chinese food places and they all look really really good. That's the prompt

  • Okay, I gotta walk around and see what does she eat. This is the scouting part of the food adventure

  • This is really interesting the mushrooms

  • there's they sell a lot of these mushrooms here and the price goes up from 3,000 yen all the way to

  • 30000 yen on the top. Basically that's a $300 mushroom. These are called matsutake mushrooms

  • They're basically Japan's truffle and there's still so $4,000 a pound. I've never had one

  • I'm sure it's guys swish out a kitchen I cook so much

  • So start out with some takoyaki haven't had talked to here since I came to Japan

  • We got to fix that this place meaning a toy a huge line for their takoyaki

  • And this might look a lot different than the ones you've had in Japan or anywhere else because these don't really have anything on them

  • No saws, no bonito flakes. And that's because they have all the sauces and condiments. Here you out of yourself

  • Okay, my god don't make the same mistake I did for holding my mouth not smashing to do no push me on the outside

  • Nice and gooey who loved the octopus this is ultimate Japanese comfort food right here

  • Whenever I add in my own colonies before so I might have messed up a little bit

  • But I like the fact you can add as much communal place as you want

  • Oh, no, I mean I kind of feel like I want that thing right there. Here it is
