For those wondering, unaware, or haven’t heard about the part at 3:16, there was an incident a few months ago involving three pranksters making a video about them licking a bottle of soy sauce at a sushi restaurant
The solo dining booths allow each person to fully immerse themselves in the experience and enjoy the flavor of the food itself without any outside distractions. In some instances, I'd rather go to a place like this during lunchtime instead of a crowded restaurant where you have to listen to annoying loud conversations from ppl sitting next to you. This is a relaxing, yet introverted dining respite. What a fantastic idea!
yeah but on the other hand social interactions are good for development of a persons personality. I find Japan sometimes to be unhealthy in this aspect. Because i cant find the reason for 0 eye contact or even speak to them.I have also seen that in other establishments. I think Japan is a perfect country for introverted people but sometimes they take it too far in my opinion of course.
@@Sonasic it is not "unhealthy" . It is very dangerous for people , who cant(mostly DONT WANT TO INTERACT WITH OTHERS, DUE TO THEIR IQ=5) All people must interact with each other in this places like that. If u dont want to speak with waiter- stay in ur house and just make an order from this restaurant.
@@Sonasic You don't really know much about Japan, I mean Japan is well known for its heavy social interaction culture between peers in the workplace. The reason why you feel this way is that you mostly visited these tourist spots. While in these more remote regions, people are as nice and socialising as everywhere else towards their customers, especially the locals. Japanese got poor english and you don't need to wonder why they don't seem to be interactive in tourist spots. You can see how the printed materials in Ichiran in this video are printed in english to server tourists. Don't make stories with your ignorance

Yup, if you think it's "unhealthy" not to interact with people, then go bring your business elsewhere. SO easy! Not sure why so many people here act like Judge Dredd.
From a service perspective, it's nice being able to just focus on crafting the best possible meals without having to do as much on the service end! A real win-win.
I have to say that between you and "Solo Travel Japan", I am adding Japan to my to visit list. No idea how soon I will make it or when, just that it is going to happen. Thank you.
Japan is a really introverted country and its so refreshing and probably like a safe haven for some introverts. A place like this is so considerate. I can't wait to try this out in Japan.
Thank you for this video. I’ve seen a few RUclips videos set in various Ichiran locations, including this one, but none of them made me a part of the experience, from standing in line, to the instructions and visuals, to the new touch-screens for ordering. You never take anything for granted in your videos and answer so many unasked questions; in how you film and present what you’re experiencing to all of us, to the overlooked details and customs that someone living in a culture might take for granted when communicating with those not from that culture. Thank you for your awareness and understanding and for bringing us along with you. kindly, 🙏
I was so curious about that, too! Like, are you just choosing to vent quietly about it by handing that block, or will it cause them to shush the other patrons, or will they offer earplugs or some other helpful device? 🤔 I'm so curious!
Without actually knowing the answer myself, I'm fairly certain that you will be handed some ear plugs that you can either dispose of afterwards or take with you. Everything else, like moving you to a different cabin or interacting with the neighboring customers, would just be too cumbersome to manage by the staff.
I've seen other videos of Ichiran but they didn't go into as much detail or show the wooden blocks (I was very curious about those when I saw them in another video). DB's attention to detail (and willingness to order all the items on the menu) is perfect. And all the toilet rolls made me laugh 😂
I really liked this concept when u don't have to bother anyone.simple order and enjoy in ur solitude. How peaceful. This is really interesting thing. Thank you for sharing this experience
At first, I was confused by the prospect of a "vending machine restaurant" but that's actually really cool. Nice to see a place that's very considerate for people's social anxiety and/or shyness. Helps that the food also looks awesome.
I was in japan last may and im going again for the sakura season next march, i cried so hard watching this video. I miss the taste, the service, the whole atmosphere. Thank you for this video❤
I thought you were gonna waste the ramen broth, but then I said to myself, " I've never seen this HUMAN waste ANYTHING!" And I was right. Nice way to utilize the extra broth👏👏👏👏 **So I changed the pronoun from MAN to HUMAN. We can all agree on that! Geez! And to the person who brought this up, life must be hard having to always be correct😩😫...... 🖕🏾😐
Thank you for this informative video. I watched many videos of this restaurant and nobody has explained what those little boards are on the right, how to order a second round and how you eat the soup using the spoon. ! Thank you again
The moment you try ICHIRAN Ramen for the first time, your POV on ramen in general will change forever, and i mean it in a good way. I loved it there, hope to go there again someday
I hate being stuck here in Serbia.... I spent around three years in China and fell in love with Udon noodles, noodles in general, dumplings of all kinds. I even had Ramen at a Japanese restaurant there. :'( I miss all that.......
Truly a dream!! I hate going to restaurants by myself, I get super awkward and it totally ruins the experience for me. My back starts to hurt from turning around to see people staring at me and because weirdly enough, I forget how to sit straight I start to stress out
omg i wanna go to japan soooooo bad mainly for the food. i love how solo most of it is and i love how many themed places they have too. i just wish i had the money to go there and eat everywhere lol
I went to this exact restaurant when I was on vacation in Japan 7 months ago. It's in Dotomburi in Osaka. It was quite good, but not the best ramen I've had. I did love the private booths, they felt comfortable and fun.
@@cgraham6 neither do I. Also I hear it's priced like a tourist trap. Much more expensive than the Japanese locations. Somewhat expected I guess considering the price of doing business in NYC.
@@HardPumpers There's a Asia Pacific Market in Colorado if anyone lives there and they have not only stall-quality ramen packs you can make at home, they also were not even $3!
In NYC, but don't bother; they aren't half as good as they are in Japan or SE Asia. Try finding a Ichiran dry noodle kit online- it will be okay; but better than my experience in NYC. That, or just look around for a local Japanese restaurant that isn't just "Sushi" to see if they make tonkotsu ramen. There is a knock-off chain in California called IchiBAN that is pretty good.
This is as close to the real experience I will get but I tell you if I could move to a small Japanese village, tend to my garden and then go have ramen everyday and lunch by the river yeah I'd be a very happy man ☺ this looks wonderful.

I've only ever been to the Ichiran in New York (Times Square), it was okay;. The friend I went with has been to several in Japan and the Causeway Bay Hong Kong one and was clearly disappointed in the US version.
@@Blacattacsquadron If they opened one in San Francisco or Los Angeles, they probably couldn't get away with overly watering down. But they chose New York, where everything tends to be overpriced and underwhelming.
@@isamuominae They have to cook the pork longer, so it's less tender and the eggs aren't as good; but I mostly noticed how much thinner the soup was from what I've seen and the serving was rather anemic.
I will give it to this guy, I have only seen a few of his videos, but in each one he eats enough for 3 people haha love it I have a large appetite too sometimes.
to be honest guys, as an introvert person, i really like this place. i will enjoy the food by myself. also, if i have an extra money, not only the ramen i will order, maybe some other menu there. its a heaven to all introvert person.
I hope i go to this beautiful country, Japan. I love the culture and they are so passionate about their work. I would love to come Japan and try every famous thing out there, especially ramen etc. I HOPE THAT someday i will be there in japan ❤
Those communication sign blocks would be my dream! I get so anxious talking to people I don't know (yet I'm so talkative around well known friends and family and my boyfriend so no one would dream I'm like it)... I stumble and get afraid to ask. So I'd love for them to be a thing here in England!
This place looks perfect for an introvert who’s dining alone. As an introvert, it’s good for not needing eye contact, but at the same time, it sounds a little sad.
Looks almost identical to the booths you sit at when doing food testing at the Oregon State University food research center here in Portland. You never see anything but the hands and arms as they put the food in front of you. Then you use a terminal and answer responses about the food quality etc. Only difference is they have a sliding door instead.
I can’t help but watch this like a lot, because one, I love noodles and ramen and two, I’m allergic to egg but it just makes me want to try it anyways. And plus it just looks so good.
I love how in some East Asian countries you can use transport fare cards at vending machines, convenience stores and so on. I guess it will soon be outdated once all transport fares are paid with our phones, but it was such a good idea.
I know everyone's talking about the food and the experience of eating, but GODDANG, THAT RESTROOM- You'll never run out of toilet paper! It most likely has a bidet too!
