I remember watching Mark's videos from all the way back in 2015 before Maica was born & all these years later seeing him travel the world with Ying & Mark to these wonderful places trying all this amazing food. It's always a pleasure watching your videos & I've been really enjoying this Japan series. Greetings from Kenya to you & your family as well as all the viewers of these videos.
@@MarkWiens Thanks to you as well for bringing us all the top tier content over the years. Your unique way of story telling through the places you visit, the food & people you showcase in your videos is what keeps bringing me back.
I as well have watched Mark forever and a day. Mark brought me into the food culture on RUclips and has convinced me and the wife to sell our business and move to Chiang Mia to retire next year.
We are addicted to Marks videos! Amazing food, amazing places, always tones of natural positivity and joy radiating from his personality. Very genuine and respectful content creator! Thank you Mark and team! It’s a fab experience to watch each video
There are many delicious restaurants in Fukuoka, but it is very difficult even for Japanese people to find delicious restaurants. I think Mark is very well researched.
Well, I'd imagine it helps when you can read Gurunavi and other review sites, but those of us who haven't developed our palate with delicacies from all over the world like Mark can probably just rely on pretty much everything in Japan exceeding our plebeian expectations, instead of a research team in the background. I'm like 158:1 for liking (almost) every meal I've eaten in Japan so far.
By the way Mark, not only considered acceptable and polite, slurping the noodles helps to cool them down because the air comes with it and prevents you from burning your lips and also the cheffs like to hear it as it is common sense that you are enjoying the meal and are really craving it it
Yeesh.. Just hearing the words "udon", "ramen", and "Fukuoka" make me come running.. but the fact that Mark is at the helm means this is a 'must watch'!
Mark, I DON'T KNOW how you do it on these Noodle Tours. The Food, of course, is DELICIOUS and anyone watching would LOVE to seated next to you and enjoying the same food as you are! Unfortunately, kind of difficult in cost, of course. But the GOOD NEWS is how much we LEARN of different destinations and their many years of becoming the experts of genuine China and Japanese cuisine exchanges....because of you! Thank You!
Looks delicious. I worked in a Ramen shop making noodles from scratch, flour, water, mixer, cutter, etc. Cooking the meats , broth, , vegetable, etc. Too bad the ramen shop closed, the neighborhood wasn't ready for it. This was maybe 20 years ago or so and people were like, I'm not paying that much for Ramen noodles, I can do that in 5 minutes at home
Thank you for pronouncing tonkotsu ramen correctly. Drives me nuts when other people say tonkAtsu ramen. I always appreciate how hard you try to pronounce things correctly.
Love how you created this video the content, editing and even the background music especially from 12:57. No wonder you can have over 9.7 m subscriptions now and approaching to 10m very soon. Keep up the good work Mark! Thank you for sharing with us these numerous bowls of scrumptious ramen!
It's 1 o'clock in the morning here in Sydney Australia and I started to watch Mark eating yummy noodles, so I got so jealous and got out of bed and made myself a bowl. Mark stop showing us all this mouth watering dishes. Love all your videos, Thank you Mark. From Sydney Australia xxxooo
Thank you for always putting the names of these places. I plan to travel to Japan one day and will definitely check these places out! All of it looks so so delicious
Maica is gonna grow up watch all this and be convinced he had the literal best childhood it's shocking all your viewers are watching your family literally grow before our very eyes 💜💙 blessings to you and yours like always jealous you've gotten to see Japan lol
Wow! Every food you in Japan that you show looks spectacular! I can't believe how exact & careful they are in making everything perfect looking and delicious. Thank you for bringing us all this great content Mark. Wishing you and your family the best.
博多ラーメン Hakata ramen is the best ramen. For all the types of noodle which has the "soba" and "udon", I find ramen (noodle) as the best. Enjoy eating Mark. Japan is on rainy season these days. Spring time.
Hello again! bro. Mark, it's a beautiful country of Fukuoka Japan 🇯🇵🗾 welcome saymase, the ramen 🍜 is a long life delicious to your meal! enjoy and very nice! 🙂👍
First time I had true Ramen I was amazed. I got classic beef with bamboo shoots, wood ear mushroom, scallions and egg. They also added a seared piece of brisket. With every spoon I could literally taste the umami flavor you get from a good burger. I could also taste the juices from the mushroom as well as the char on the brisket. It felt like I was tasting steak and hamburger at the same time, and the egg was made to perfection; outside was light-brown, marinated in soy sauce I presume and the inside was a perfect jelly like consistency. Best egg I ever had in my life. Not all places make ramen this good and even at good spots the flavor profile of each bowl can vary so much. My advice is find a well reviewed restaurant and try what they have until you find something you really like. Can't go wrong with traditional beef imo. ^^
Very high quality video as I’ve come to expect from mark and his family/team! Incredibly grateful that you’ve chosen to do this Japan series as I’m very interested personally in the almost unsurpassed dedication the Japanese have with gastronomy. Unflinching, direct and nuanced. This video was the very definition of enjoyable.
My number one comfort food. Perhaps even my death row dish if it ever came to that. 🙂 Thanks Mark for making my morning. I ate ramen while I watched this video.
That label in front of the udon place entrance was asking you to disinfect your hands with hand sanitizer before entering. They take their cleanliness super seriously.
Always wanted to go to Japan, but I won't ever have the money for it. I am so thankful for these videos that let me get a glimpse at Japanese Culture and its delicious cuisine. Thank You very Much Mark
It's not as expensive as you would think. Street food is super afforsable there. You can save for a few months, reserve flight & accomodation WAY in advance for a good offer online. I did it back in 2016 (booked in January & went in November, almoat 9 months later). Came out around $1,700 USD.
Buddhist monks, both Japanese and Chinese played key roles in transmitting not only Buddhist doctrine but also important cultural, artistic, medical and practical technologies for more than a millennia. Even when relations were tense between the two countries, Buddhist monks continued to tie the two countries together.
I simply like watching your videos. Learned to eat well. And it is a joy to see you eat. God bless you. And your family. Watching Mica grow and Ying also.
I really appreciate that the prices are included. It shows how much we can or can't afford. Same with the wagyu video. Good to know that there is really affordable food in Japan. Hope to see more prices in other countries.
And that doesn't even really also count the vending machines and convenience store stuff which is absolutely amazing in and of themselves. Also if one is staying in a suite with a kitchen the grocery stores are pretty crazy affordable. I basically lived off Lawson's food items for four months lol
I basically survived off Lawson's convenience store food and sushi with the occasional bowl of ramen for four months and I spent anywhere from fifteen to twenty USD a day and you can get by on way way less if you wanted. I was constantly trying random food in izakayas as well and that was typically never more than ten or twelve bucks plus beer.
Thank you for featured in Fukuoka! The number of Western tourists, which was said to be rare in Fukuoka, is increasing rapidly. One of the reasons is said to be because you uploaded these videos. There are many things to see in Fukuoka. Thank you so much!❤
Ramen Beyond stunning one Ramen restaurant making Noodle 70 year impressive oldest one making noodle Jammy and Delicious thank you Mark showing Japan love it
In Fukuoka udon noodles soup is made from dried flying fish. In Fukuoka udon noodles soup has two type Bonita freak and flying fish. More salty one is flying fish. When you are champon red condiments is pickled ginger.

21:07 . At the end of each video he promotes the company or companies that he hires to show him where to go
Now that Mark has almost 10 million subs he has a very large number of local fans who help him find the best places.
@@edwardfletcher7790marks been working hard at this for fourteen years now. He's definitely good at it
This is the first ever video of Mark Wiens that I've watched, and his face just radiates happiness, even when he isn't smiling, I love it☺️
By the way Mark, not only considered acceptable and polite, slurping the noodles helps to cool them down because the air comes with it and prevents you from burning your lips and also the cheffs like to hear it as it is common sense that you are enjoying the meal and are really craving it it
Every time he wears the color navy blue it looks so good on him. That color brings his eyes out to a really pretty greenish gray.
マークさん、日本へようこそ！
福岡の豚骨ラーメンは最高ですよね。スープを飲んだときのコメントが、素晴らしく、日本食を楽しんでくれていることが本当にうれしいです。日本各地にはそれぞれのラーメン文化があるので、次に日本に来た時も、各地を巡って食べ歩いてみてください。

What a pleasure to see you enjoy different style Noodles in Fukuoka

Ramen is my favourite type of noodle dish. Thanks for the video!
Great to hear that!

Mark Hi from Tokyo. I loved the food in Fukuoka when I visited and I highly recommend もつ鍋（Motsu(Intestines) nabe) its one of fukuokas specialties.
I can’t wait to visit Japan.
Wow! Every food you in Japan that you show looks spectacular! I can't believe how exact & careful they are in making everything perfect looking and delicious. Thank you for bringing us all this great content Mark. Wishing you and your family the best.

Every dish looked so good, sure would love to visit there one day! Great content Mark, keep em coming bud!
Very high quality video as I’ve come to expect from mark and his family/team!

Unflinching, direct and nuanced. This video was the very definition of enjoyable.
yeeeeees, you are 100%correct of your burdock tempura choice for HAKATA udon.
My number one comfort food. Perhaps even my death row dish if it ever came to that. 🙂 Thanks Mark for making my morning. I ate ramen while I watched this video.
That label in front of the udon place entrance was asking you to disinfect your hands with hand sanitizer before entering. They take their cleanliness super seriously.
I'm happy to see there's food in Japan that commoners like me can afford, lol.
The last dish was my favorite.
Always wanted to go to Japan, but I won't ever have the money for it.

Thank You very Much Mark

Never say never
There's budget travel options it can be done cheaper than many people think.
That first bowl of Tongkotsu has massive amount of noodles. Good Lord!
Nice video 😍😍😍
That's crazy how good the first one looked.

Hey Mark! Love all your videos. I have been to Fukuoka as well and have had the Hakata Ramen many times at the airport! So so good! Best Ramen ever!
Another reason to visit Japan 🇯🇵! Thanks Mark for another video!
I agree, I’m wanting to go myself.
this is the Japan episode i was waiting for.
I’m so happy you’re back in Japan again, loved your videos from years back here!

Basically if you cook at home in Japan you can easily eat a solid healthy diet for five USD a day to be honest
