One of the fun things about Toadstool Cafe, looking closely, is that it looks like despite Jacob having a "deadly mushroom allergy," there are absolutely still mushrooms in that meatball. Sooooo that's a lawsuit waiting to happen, if the raw meat doesn't do it first
Given Alpha's prior near-death experience, this round of bad food, raw meat, and still having mushrooms in the no-mushroom order, and the overall nightmare that I've heard from literally everyone who has gone there, I have no idea how the place is still open. Like... How? This has GOT to be breaking some sort of code or law or something, right?
@@TOSkwar22 that's what I'm thinking. Its a lawsuit waiting to happen and either they had enough money to cover it up already, or theyre really falling through the cracks somehow. Also possible with money, unfortunately
Hoooly crap what the heck is wrong with that cafe? Ignoring the mushroom allergy, completely forgetting the order so that they only remembered when literally reminded, and serving raw cold meatball meals? Yikes.
i remember getting a "How to Draw Mario Characters" book from the Scholastic Book Fair when I was 8, way back in 2004, and some of the renders used in that book I still see on licensed property to this day.
The Toadstool Cafe has to be the biggest hit-or-miss ever. I’ve seen people sing the praises of the food like it’s a five-star restaurant, and then you have Alpharad who almost died.
How have working conditions devolved so quickly in the span of a few months into a park's opening? It's baffling to me if that's the case EDIT: I forgot the Mario movie was a thing in April and must have been responsible for park traffic, but they should have seen it coming.
FINALLY AN HONEST REVIEW ABOUT THE FOOD i only ever see people saying that the food was great, it appealed to the mario fan in them, etc. however, each time i've eaten there i've gotten about the same experience as you two. it's so bad 😭
When I went with a friend who returned about 3 more times it was seriously great. My friend who continued going by himself said the quality dropped and it wasn't good. Our first trip was a week after opening day.
In Japan is different because of it’s culture in California they don’t care they just wanna rush the food out as fast as possible but the food in Japan they make sure it’s perfect to avoid bad reviews
I cant speak for America but Ive been there in Japan and that Koopa shell filled with noodles was one of the best things I ate during my entire month long trip.
Very much had "Here's this crazy 'I went to Mario Land Adventure 2'.... and also Jaaaaiden was there" air to it. Not wrong in the least. She's internet-marketable, and she knows it.
Alpharad: Gets winded by doing 30 seconds of jogging Also Alpharad: I could climb up these hard to reach cliffs and get the flag! Sir, it seems like a light breeze is enough to hospitalize you recently. I would be afraid for your life if you even attempted that climb.
it’s totally climbable, just need more stamina imo but you also have to be fast to get the picture before they catch you and ban you from the park, just like a mario game
@@evaidem not really an inside joke, more like we just don't like or financially support the Harry Potter franchise because of JK Rowling, a lot of people on the internet feel the same
I love how no one mentioned that Jacob spent 130+$ on mediocre spaghet, some okay soup and burger, and a meatball that would have killed him not once (raw) but twice (there are clearly mushrooms in the Bowser's Ball and in the cheese if he actually had an allergy)
He's rich, that's like $1 to you. He'll also recoup the money he spent on going there by posting this video, so even if he got poisoned by the meatball, he'd still end up with net profit :P
@@thefool1284 The second part of the second sentence is a joke. Just because you and 35+ people missed it doesn't mean you should be saltier than that meatball. /s
Now I'm imagining Kitchen Nightmares but half of the lines get turned into Mario references. "Fucking hell these meatballs are fucking raw! Did they come from Bowser's Castle or Sherbet Land for fuck's sake?!"
The fact that literally the whole dish was cold I think sends a far far worse one, if they had proper chefs back there cooking these meals as you would expect then there should be no way those 3 components would ever be assembled let alone reach someones table like that. However if the great Chef microwave is on staff then suddenly making the meal cold then forgetting to heat it up makes a lot more sense to me and the lack of any edit too your orders also makes more sense other than you know, Nintendo doing the Nintendo thing of zero options.
I went to universal this month. When I was buying the powerband a worker there was informing me about some things about the snw attraction. And one of the things i remember the most was her telling me not to eat at the toad cafe. She said that is wasnt worth it. The wait is too long and the food is gross. Now seeing this video, im so glad i took her advice and ate elsewhere.
@@Shakzor1 funny thing is, if Alpharad actually had a mushroom allergy, they just straight up served him poison, since his "no mushroom" order clearly had mushrooms in it.

I have respiratory issues which mean I get winded from 30sec of jogging and I, too, think I could climb that giant sculpture. It's just the no-inhaler asthma/low stamina experience honestly
Jaiden is slowly living up to the chaotic energy she gives off in her animations. Edit: Also apparently he also traveled the country with Jaiden and PChal/Jan in a Miku car and I want to hear more of that. Or the travel to Japan because of course.
Punching blocks is… strangely satisfying! Also 5:15 the park is pretty much New Super Mario Bros. 2 where the goal is to get as many coins possible, and stamps give you bonus coins. Some are even repeatable!
Happy to report that the experience is better now (at least, on a Thursday in June). I got the garlic knots and ? block tiramisu and they were pretty good and came out decently quick (probably helps that they're small items though). Anyone looking to go, strongly recommend the early access entry. It's $30 but it means you can go on the mario kart ride and make your reservations right away before it gets too busy.
apparently that meatball, in addition to actually being raw, also had mushrooms in it despite alpharad claiming he had a deathly mushroom allergy. the true bowser's balls challenge, praying you don't die from both salmonella and any allergies that they did not adhere to
he shows the receipt, he only said he had an allergy for the spaghetti. also i’d bet if they mentioned it couldn’t be substituted cuz the meatballs were already prepared, he could have just said it was for jaiden or something, since he talked about feeling bad about making up the allergy
Fun fact when I went to Nintendo world and got a reservation to the Toadstool cafe I went up to the person standing outside just to confirm how exactly it worked and they said “Wanna go in now?” And they let me in 😭 they rlly did not care
That meatball legit looked like it wasn't cooked. If i were there and got that, i'd legit request a refund lol. Paying park prices for food that'll almost certainly make you violently ill is absurd.
Well yes, but that's because Japan has a totally different culture. You could go to a bottom-tier restaurant in Japan and still get food made with better standards than what Alpha got served.
Went to the Osaka Universal studios location 2 weeks ago, can confirm that the food at Toad's cafe was solid, did not give anyone in my party food poisoning, food tasted good, and it was delivered in a timely manner. There was still some extra talking in order to removing certain ingredients due to dietary restrictions, but they still followed through in the end. Still love the presentation too. Also for anyone who was curious about that "cracker" on the spaghetti it was a parmesan crisp.
My Family and I went this last December. Was really excited cause though Australia has theme parks, the American Parks are huge! This brought a lot of insite into everything my family and I didn't do, but our time there was really fun none the less. I did buy some pins and a bob-omb keychain (rip Bobby). Thank you for the video it was fun to watch!
their fancy at nintendo cooking is for the poors. it's a tartare tho a simpleton like you which probably doesn't even know how to make a Double Triple Bossy Deluxe on a raft, 4x4 animal style, extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, light axle grease; make it cry, burn it, and let it swim with no pickles even tho your class is at that of mcdonalds and should know such slang.
7:16 made me think of how amazing this place would be to climb and explore when abandoned and there are no rules. I already find the idea of looking for an abandoned mall to explore really fun, but imagine this that's literally built like a platformer
I really enjoyed this content in general! You make a great host for travel adventures. Also thank you so much for actually showing the downsides of the café, every other youtuber who has mentioned this say they adhere to allergies and modifications, which is a big difference to the type of café that is overcrowded and only adheres by removing stuff if it's a serious allergy, meaning I could definitely not eat safely there to begin with, with all my allergies.
Having gone to Universal Studios Japan a couple weeks ago, it's interesting to see what changed with the american version: 1. The wristbands cost like double in the states jeez 2. there was 1 extra key minigame in Japan where you had to get the key pieces scattered around the room, then fit the puzzle pieces into place before they get blown up by a bomb-omb and scattered again. 3. the queue for the Mario kart ride in US looks like it has more props and is longer (probably because japan has the Yoshi ride) 4. various Toad's cafe menu changes, JP food looks (and probably tastes) miles better, the Peach cake got downgraded to a cupcake lmao 5. Toad is exclusive to Japan :/
Honestly putting a character you only see in a specific region makes no sense for me. Except this one I’m glad it’s not in America because holy shit that suit looks dead.
Jacob just casually gets food poisoning from his last adventure to Super Nintendo World and he just casually decided to go there again. This man has some balls
Guessed popcorn bucket immediately! The dead giveaway was the strap... anyone who has ever been to Disney knows the look from a mile away... hahaha! Glad to see they've adapted to Mario! Can't wait to go to Japan next year!
This guy made a Japan vlog a couple years back and made Nintendo World look phenomenal. Excellent Cuisine Fun rides Eccentric cast as the Mario group. And then your video really showed us the reality between American and Japanese cooking. The fact the food looked like as you described “Cafeteria food” after almost an hour wait time made me hesitant on going when it comes to Florida.
Ngl. Having to pay a second time for a cheap wristband just to fully access that corner of the greater park…eesh. I’m not surprised the food was not only prepackaged frozen stuff but not even reheated to be safe to eat (which Also says…uh. The kitchen will look like a petri dish. No wonder Alpharad god so sick the last time. That place is a walking lawsuit, and don’t even get me started on being unable to modify your meal)
@@AztecCroc It’s still incredibly stupid at best, ableist at worse, and a lawsuit waiting to happen in the extreme-which half the comment section’s pointed out already It’s also why Theme Park Food gets the reputation for being not only overpriced but *terrible* (but a lot of places force you to buy it by not allowing in picnics or snacks. Fuck diabetics, people with food allergies and intolerances, and religious/worldview dietary restrictions IG… Seriously though, this isn’t anything other than capitalist bullshit. It’s not THAT hard to actually keep a clean and equipped kitchen with meals that aren’t prepackaged and frozen and actually hiring/training cooks. They’re just being incredibly cheap and charging a premium.)
For recommendations on things to do for your Japan trip: if you're looking for a good "drive around and do shit" quest, there are bronze statues of all the Straw Hats strewn around Kumamoto prefecture that are just in random ass places. They're extremely cool to drive around and find if you're a One Piece fan!
I was in Super Nintendo World in Japan, Osaka. It was very impressive once you entered the theme park through Peachs Castle. The Yoshi Attraction is just a slow ride above the park. Oh yeah, the japanese Nintendo World is more deep and feels like a little crater, so the yoshi attraction feels much more epic than it deserves tbh. The waiting lines are very beautiful as well and you hear nice mario music all the time. There were also koopa shell bread with yakisoba noodles inside... it was very delicous and I cannot understand why the american Nintendo World fails in that aspect. Trust me, the food in Japan is very very nice, you would love it! Otherwise it is nearly identical to the american theme park from the looks of it. Try check it out if you should ever have the chance ^^
Toad is no longer just in Japan. I went to the same Super Nintendo world and saw him, her? Them? Anyways yeah lots of fun too. I went with team Luigi though and I strongly suggest you guys go there too. And also you can just take a picture of the qr code and scan it first thing in the morning to increase your chances of getting a reservation. And thanks alpharad, for these amazing videos and “in-depth” explanations.
@gamergoose5467 She has been on record multiple times saying various things that are in-line with TERF viewpoints and opinions, even though she and her defenders insists that she is not a TERF.
I love that, although Alpha looks like the sunny cheery one and Jaiden should be the sad one (by virtue of Alpha usually associating with colorful things and is lucky af where as Jaiden is notoriously unlucky and dresses in black often), She's always having the most fun while he's usually looking like why the F$%# am I here... 2:00

Alpharad pointing out where each Mario render came from made me smile because I would do the exact same thing
Punching blocks is… strangely satisfying!
Also 5:15 the park is pretty much New Super Mario Bros. 2 where the goal is to get as many coins possible, and stamps give you bonus coins. Some are even repeatable!
As someone with an actual mushroom allergy, I give all of you permission to claim that you have one
Chad
*Good Luck!*
I love how jaiden gives an L to the camera almost every time
It's like the gamer equivalent of flipping off the camera when you're in frame
@@EmeraldKeys isn’t it a L for Luigi? I mean, she’s also wearing a Luigi shirt.
@Matheus P Plus she is wearing a Luigi band
jaiden and alpha are slowly becoming a very iconic duo. I just love the sibling energy the combination of the two radiates.
jaiden and alpharad are essentially the wario brothers of the internet
Couldn’t have said it better myself
Yes
I find the image of Adriana holding a peace sign over alpha in a hospital bed to be extremely funny
Without context it looks like SHE was somehow responsible.
You didn't know?
Happy to report that the experience is better now (at least, on a Thursday in June). I got the garlic knots and ? block tiramisu and they were pretty good and came out decently quick (probably helps that they're small items though).
Anyone looking to go, strongly recommend the early access entry. It's $30 but it means you can go on the mario kart ride and make your reservations right away before it gets too busy.
I love Jaiden, she's always that agent of chaos and you never know what she's going to do. She's gamer at life
apparently that meatball, in addition to actually being raw, also had mushrooms in it despite alpharad claiming he had a deathly mushroom allergy. the true bowser's balls challenge, praying you don't die from both salmonella and any allergies that they did not adhere to
he shows the receipt, he only said he had an allergy for the spaghetti. also i’d bet if they mentioned it couldn’t be substituted cuz the meatballs were already prepared, he could have just said it was for jaiden or something, since he talked about feeling bad about making up the allergy
Fun fact when I went to Nintendo world and got a reservation to the Toadstool cafe I went up to the person standing outside just to confirm how exactly it worked and they said “Wanna go in now?” And they let me in 😭 they rlly did not care
That meatball legit looked like it wasn't cooked. If i were there and got that, i'd legit request a refund lol. Paying park prices for food that'll almost certainly make you violently ill is absurd.
Lmao I can’t believe Bowser’s meatball challenge was just “can you eat a pound of raw meat and survive”
It sounds like something an intern came up with and they just went, "Fuck it, add it to the menu." and went back to brainstorming.
I had a shower thought one time about if i ran a restaurant i would serve a block of raw meat and label it as "the meat cube"
@@Ittbitt9999 It already exists in a way. Google steak tartare.
They might as well put that cube of meat you cook in that one Super Mario Party minigame on the menu
With only one side cooked of course
i honestly like how everything in there looked super clean
10:11 I love how it perfectly syncs with him actually saying the same thing to Jaiden 😂
I bet Japan’s Cafe actually takes their food seriously
I've seen a few articles that confirm that. The menu is a massive downgrade and it seems the same goes for the chefs.
Truly a thing vs thing in jp moment 😔
Well yes, but that's because Japan has a totally different culture. You could go to a bottom-tier restaurant in Japan and still get food made with better standards than what Alpha got served.
DancingBacons went to the Japan location and ate there, and from their video I can guess that this assumption is correct.
Went to the Osaka Universal studios location 2 weeks ago, can confirm that the food at Toad's cafe was solid, did not give anyone in my party food poisoning, food tasted good, and it was delivered in a timely manner. There was still some extra talking in order to removing certain ingredients due to dietary restrictions, but they still followed through in the end. Still love the presentation too. Also for anyone who was curious about that "cracker" on the spaghetti it was a parmesan crisp.
7:48 toad is no longer exclusive to japan, I met him and it was the best thing ever:)
It almost feels like Alpharad is still with us, fly high.. fly high. 😭🕊️
Ikr :(
It was such a sad Tuesday 😭
What happened?
@@CrazyCats101. he died from flying too close to the sun😢
Can’t believe he died from salmonella 😭😭😭😭
He should have known he couldn't handle Bowser's raw balls... 😢
honestly, if we get a japan trip vlog/video, id love a part of "things i wish we could get at home", like arcades and that pokemon cafe for instance
My Family and I went this last December. Was really excited cause though Australia has theme parks, the American Parks are huge! This brought a lot of insite into everything my family and I didn't do, but our time there was really fun none the less. I did buy some pins and a bob-omb keychain (rip Bobby). Thank you for the video it was fun to watch!
As someone who worked in the food industry, that meatball is definitely too raw to be considered "rare".
their fancy at nintendo cooking is for the poors. it's a tartare tho a simpleton like you which probably doesn't even know how to make a Double Triple Bossy Deluxe on a raft, 4x4 animal style, extra shingles with a shimmy and a squeeze, light axle grease; make it cry, burn it, and let it swim with no pickles even tho your class is at that of mcdonalds and should know such slang.
i only have experience thru my brother whos rlly into/picky about rare steaks and like. that shit just looks undercooked
That part about modifying the food hit me hard because I only wanted ketchup and lettuce on my mario burger
0:57 NO WAY HE RANDOMLY SELECTED THE BORDER BETWEEN SLOVAKIA (where i live) AND POLAND OMG
Jadien and Alpharad are one of the best duos I swear and I can't be changed
7:16 made me think of how amazing this place would be to climb and explore when abandoned and there are no rules. I already find the idea of looking for an abandoned mall to explore really fun, but imagine this that's literally built like a platformer
Abandoned mall is cool for Tony Hawk Pro Skater reasons, the tower is cool for becoming Mario irl reasons
I really enjoyed this content in general! You make a great host for travel adventures.
Also thank you so much for actually showing the downsides of the café, every other youtuber who has mentioned this say they adhere to allergies and modifications, which is a big difference to the type of café that is overcrowded and only adheres by removing stuff if it's a serious allergy, meaning I could definitely not eat safely there to begin with, with all my allergies.
Rest in peace Alpharad. You’ll always be a strong memory with us 🙏
6:50 any% super nintendo world speedruns are going to be INSANE after this breakthrough
@randomusername1735 hmm true! leave plot unresolved. bad ending but still complete!
Hospital%, how fast can you become violently ill from Bowser's raw balls.
7:08 props to the kid dressed up as mario XD
Having gone to Universal Studios Japan a couple weeks ago, it's interesting to see what changed with the american version:
1. The wristbands cost like double in the states jeez
2. there was 1 extra key minigame in Japan where you had to get the key pieces scattered around the room, then fit the puzzle pieces into place before they get blown up by a bomb-omb and scattered again.
3. the queue for the Mario kart ride in US looks like it has more props and is longer (probably because japan has the Yoshi ride)
4. various Toad's cafe menu changes, JP food looks (and probably tastes) miles better, the Peach cake got downgraded to a cupcake lmao
5. Toad is exclusive to Japan :/
Honestly putting a character you only see in a specific region makes no sense for me. Except this one I’m glad it’s not in America because holy shit that suit looks dead.
@@RudoMike21 I did see a toad while i was there, and i did wonder how small the person must be to fit in it!
Alpharad and Jaiden really turned into the 2 best buddies that do everything together huh😂😂
6:55 They found a speedrun strat for Super Nintendo World lmfao
I love how jaiden is just full of energy in these videos
Right? It is such a character development seeing her not being uncomfortable anymore of being seen, and is awesome to see her having a good time
Jacob just casually gets food poisoning from his last adventure to Super Nintendo World and he just casually decided to go there again. This man has some balls
in fact he just had bowser's balls
He just had to make sure
Guessed popcorn bucket immediately! The dead giveaway was the strap... anyone who has ever been to Disney knows the look from a mile away... hahaha! Glad to see they've adapted to Mario! Can't wait to go to Japan next year!
This guy made a Japan vlog a couple years back and made Nintendo World look phenomenal.
Excellent Cuisine
Fun rides
Eccentric cast as the Mario group.
And then your video really showed us the reality between American and Japanese cooking.
The fact the food looked like as you described “Cafeteria food” after almost an hour wait time made me hesitant on going when it comes to Florida.
Ngl. Having to pay a second time for a cheap wristband just to fully access that corner of the greater park…eesh. I’m not surprised the food was not only prepackaged frozen stuff but not even reheated to be safe to eat (which Also says…uh. The kitchen will look like a petri dish. No wonder Alpharad god so sick the last time. That place is a walking lawsuit, and don’t even get me started on being unable to modify your meal)
@@spacecat8511 Being unable to modify the meal except for allergies is pretty common in theme parks though?
@@AztecCroc
It’s still incredibly stupid at best, ableist at worse, and a lawsuit waiting to happen in the extreme-which half the comment section’s pointed out already
It’s also why Theme Park Food gets the reputation for being not only overpriced but *terrible* (but a lot of places force you to buy it by not allowing in picnics or snacks. Fuck diabetics, people with food allergies and intolerances, and religious/worldview dietary restrictions IG…
Seriously though, this isn’t anything other than capitalist bullshit. It’s not THAT hard to actually keep a clean and equipped kitchen with meals that aren’t prepackaged and frozen and actually hiring/training cooks. They’re just being incredibly cheap and charging a premium.)
@@AztecCroc to be fair most park food is like 3 ingredients
“and for some reason the devil wants you to get salmonella” has to be one of my favorite jacob quotes
love the duo i havent watched alpha or jaiden in so long and now they are making vids together!!!
I have never felt more understood than when alpharad talked about climbing the scenary
Kinda wish that was an attraction, though I get why not
Jaiden was really dedicated to always give the viewer the "L" whenever she was on screen on huh
Can’t wait to 100% Super Nintendo World’s achievements
Just let them know next time that you're fatally allergic to mushrooms AND salmonella
The meatball still had mushrooms, so even that won't work.
Jacob and Jaiden are such an iconic pair, like they could literally make a video about anything and my ass would be watching
0:39 Glad I have no intention of eating there, I am a picky eater and really don't want to try that place because everything has mushrooms.
Bruh imagine waiting a full hour for a raw meatbal 💀
The lip synchronization at 10:13 threw me off lol
For recommendations on things to do for your Japan trip: if you're looking for a good "drive around and do shit" quest, there are bronze statues of all the Straw Hats strewn around Kumamoto prefecture that are just in random ass places. They're extremely cool to drive around and find if you're a One Piece fan!
I was in Super Nintendo World in Japan, Osaka.
It was very impressive once you entered the theme park through Peachs Castle.
The Yoshi Attraction is just a slow ride above the park. Oh yeah, the japanese Nintendo World is more deep and feels like a little crater, so the yoshi attraction feels much more epic than it deserves tbh. The waiting lines are very beautiful as well and you hear nice mario music all the time.
There were also koopa shell bread with yakisoba noodles inside... it was very delicous and I cannot understand why the american Nintendo World fails in that aspect.
Trust me, the food in Japan is very very nice, you would love it!
Otherwise it is nearly identical to the american theme park from the looks of it.
Try check it out if you should ever have the chance ^^
can’t wait for the super nintendo world speedruns
The strat is to wait for the next pandemic to come to lower wait times for the lines.
Toad is no longer just in Japan. I went to the same Super Nintendo world and saw him, her? Them? Anyways yeah lots of fun too. I went with team Luigi though and I strongly suggest you guys go there too. And also you can just take a picture of the qr code and scan it first thing in the morning to increase your chances of getting a reservation. And thanks alpharad, for these amazing videos and “in-depth” explanations.
I did too three days ago
8:12 WRITE THAT DOWN! WRITE THAT DOWN!!
3:11 as someone who has recently started working at a movie theatre, I am not surprised. Also 40$ for that is not bad at all.
Can't wait to see the Toadstool Cafe episode of Kitchen Nightmares
I love how Jaiden is just always happy during this while Alpharad is observing and critiquing for his planned video.
i wish i could have the friendship you and jaiden have
0:19 can't wait to see them trained! XD
Jaiden and Alpharad are a dominating duo getting to visit special places together.
Thank you for making sure to shake your head disapprovingly at Harry Potter World, dude
i like butterbeer and harry potter world but jk rowling is 🤮
@gamergoose5467nothing’s wrong with it, JK Rowling just sucks
@gamergoose5467 She has been on record multiple times saying various things that are in-line with TERF viewpoints and opinions, even though she and her defenders insists that she is not a TERF.
@gamergoose5467 she's just immensely bigoted
@gamer goose It's a mediocre series at best, and the 25+ yo adults obsessed with it have the reading level of an 11 year old.
7:37 PIKMIN?!!! This is very plot changing
I love that, although Alpha looks like the sunny cheery one and Jaiden should be the sad one (by virtue of Alpha usually associating with colorful things and is lucky af where as Jaiden is notoriously unlucky and dresses in black often), She's always having the most fun while he's usually looking like why the F$%# am I here... 2:00
More lore added to Jacob's hospital arc. Love to see it
Sad he didn't eat the meatball, we'd have hospital arc part 2 :(
"I don't got outside much"
Jacob after saying he likes to travel alot
Amazing team-up. Love your scripts.
