One of the reasons why I opened my restaurant is, many come to Japan for its food and I wanted to introduce the dishes that use the locally sourced ingredients to whoever visit the area. And now I would like to know what kind of Japanese dish you want to try next time you visit Japan apart from Sushi and Puppy Ramen as those are too ordinary 😋
I thought Ryotaro's Japan meant we would see Ryotaro's perspective on Japan, but it seems like it actually means that Ryotaro is a yakuza boss and owns the entirety of Japan. It would seem like Chris has done something to piss off the yakuza...
Its nice seeing that Ryotaro does something with his time besides plotting sword usage on expats... but also leave it to Ryotaro to include weapons disguised as utensils for every stage of your meal.
Murder jokes aside, I do appreciate mini shovels and mallets in restaurants :) I wish I could visit Japan soon, I'd love to support Ryotaro's restaurant.
Our local Sushi Restaurant offers a matcha soy custard with chocolate crumps over it and a shovel 😊 it looks really cute and comes in a little plant pot.
Yeah totally, perhaps a cooking channel: A Broad A Pan. The concept is that Chris bakes different sorts of giant bread ("pan" in Spanish, and probably other languages), and proceeds to get inside of them to eat them from the inside out. These would all be 30-60 minute videos of a grown man silently eating man-sized loaves of bread.
I have so many responses to this, some are nice and some are not so nice. Most of them are extremely sarcastic and a few are presumptuous. But I have so many responses that I have no idea which one to post. So I'm going to wait for everyone else to do it for me.
I love how much more relax Ryotaro is when filming with Chris, need more off this ryotaro on every Vid!!! And rissotaros dish will definitely be a bonus lol
Ryotaro: “We’ve had a lot of young people coming to this town, enjoying themselves. We are quite happy about that.” 1:21 *baby cries* Me: “hmm, maybe a bit too young”
Just as expected, the Ryotaro's restaurant is a classy and exquisite option. I'll save money eating at Yoshinoya just to dive into those dishes when traveling to Sendai :D
Ryatoro's and Chris friendship is really kinda like bros for life and they really have fun togather. Every time I see both of them together you can never get bored even for a second.
Ryotaro Mate the production quality is next level with this video. Its great to see how your editing skills are improving with every video. And I wish you the best of luck with your restaurant.
After watching your food 'review' videos, I'm not surprised you own a restaurant. Very nice. I'm sure quite a lot of people / your fans would like to go to your restaurant after quarantine is over.
Oh that's really cool. Whenever I can go to Japan again I will definitely try to reserve some time to go here. Would be disappointed if there's no risottaro on the menu though ;-) Also just need to say this. For someone who hasn't been doing this for very long the quality of the content is mind-blowing. Absolutely love what you do!
Great to see you finally start your own channel and break away from that British bloke who was leaching off of your creative genius Ryotaro! Lol! All jokes aside, congratulations on your RUclips channel and restaurant. I always enjoy watching the content you and Chris put out! 1-) P.S. I liked the teas you had in this video. Maybe you should come out with an assortment of "craft" teas with local ingredients blended in them (unless you already have something like that)!
Wow! Ryotaro the quality in this video is amazing! I can tell such a big difference from your first video. I’m glad you see your amazing growth and hope to keep supporting you! That food also looks sooo amazing 🤤
@@TitoTheHonduran well I started to learn Japanese as a joke but then I became enthralled by it, so I started my lessons on Duolingo which starts you off with Hiragana for the first few lessons then Katakana afterward. I also bought a book called Remembering the Kanji to help with my studies
@@TitoTheHonduran If I were you I would take a look at the video called "12 tips for learning Japanese " by the Abroad in Japan channel, also take a look at his website. I personally think following his methods are a really good way to get started.
Oddly when Chris first appears in the frame he is taller than Ryotaro. Then when they sit down Ryotaro is taller as though Chris was given a children’s chair. I wonder if there is some gamesmanship going on here.
Wow, amazing how much thought went into each of these dishes and I love the idea of revitalising the area in this way! I'll definitely pay a visit to your restaurant next time I'm in Japan! Are the drinks also available in reusable cups or glasses instead of one-time plastic cups?
I really, really hope that Chris's fanbase will kickstart this channel like crazy. Some good stuff right there. Good job, Risottoro! Looking forward to the next video.
Great to learn how much you care for your community, providing a unique space to eat and enjoy time with friends is a gift. Respect for Ryotoro has reached new heights!
I have been bitching about the songs and sound levels before here in the comments, but now you have done it. Now they blend perfectly and are not overwhelming. very nice video overall. Definitely going to this restaurant someday ;)
Love the evolution of video and audio quality and also background music as the channel keeps progressing. Would have loved to see chris and you in a cook off contest against each other to see who is the better cook💪😂
Awesome restaurant Ryotaro. I lived and worked in Kyoto for many years and I can affirm that your restaurant has all the class and character of some of the best restaurants in Kyoto. Beautiful place and the presentation of the food is outstanding.
Your restaurant is inspiring for me and the story from Daiki and the obvious passion for history and culture is one of the reasons I’m hoping to join you all in Japan with the JET program in 2022. I’ll know I’ve made it when I can come visit Akiu and maybe cross paths with the man, the myth, the meme: the legendary risottoro. Hope you both stay safe and I can’t wait to experience this for myself.
"From Spin-off Away in Japan" I don't know what's funnier to me, that the graphic called Chris' show a spin-off, or that Ryortaro (I assume intentionally) got the title of Chris' show wrong.
Well that settles it! 2022 I had been planning a 3-4 week japan trip and I was hoping to spend some time in Sendai. I will certainly make my way out to eat ryotaro’s dirt! Jokes aside I do look forward to visiting and awesome video Ryotaro! Hope to see more in the future!
Thanks,another great video. Next week I'm gonna use this video as an english lesson. The interesting thing about Ryotaro is, he makes subtle little mistakes that a native wouldn't make, but he is tottally understandable. He has great fluency, but with a little innacuracy, That is why he is a great communicator. These (tiny) little mistakes doesn't stop him from explaining easily. Kudos to you, Ryotaro. Also, i can hear influences from America, the UK and Australia in his pronunciation and accent. A great role model for SLA.
I DO like your restaurant wish I could visit just to try out your menu's best. I plan to see more of your videos. I do like your interaction with Chris. You guys make good team showcasing everything about Japan, its sites people, food, etc. I do wish this Covid would just fade away because Now that I'm near retirement, I would love to see your country. Till the next video have a safe day.
I've been watching Chris for along time until he took it off YT. surprised see Ryotaro whom I love so came to see what you've got. This is great that you're investing in rebuilding efforts of Miyagi area not just operating a restaurant. I have a brother (and his family) who own a few restaurants in Sendai city. they specialize in Oysters from Sanriku *miyagi, Iwate) Scallops (both to die for) that are cooked on the table with charcoal stove. The restaurant is called TOBIUME which Ryataro maybe familier with. It might be a nice addition for Akiusha if they don't have such menus. I am a Japanese who's been living in San Francisco since 1975. I know you can talk with my brother Masao Matsuno since he too is working to revitalize, recovering, rebuilding fisheries, farming communities etc. and has many connections through local venders. I know I'm imposing on you but as a business opportunity as well for expanding above said ideas further. Please look it up Ryotaro san.
Love the memes in this video Ryotaro! Keep up the good work. Seeing you guys laugh and be silly on this channel is so much fun to watch. Hope to see more!
This is so cool, Ryotaro! I bet this is the most insta-ready restaurant in the vicinity, but I also love the idea behind it and the food looks like it tastes great! Plus, way to get Chris to eat lots of veggies with his fried chicken 😉
Mallet chocolate 🍫 👍👍 Don't forget to include a small mallet with it, with the store name. I think the idea would do well. 🙂 Great video and thanks for sharing. 👌 I would definitely like to check this place out, next time I'm in Japan. I've been to Sendai, but for only for the day, and definitely would love to explore more of this area. Take care, be safe, and stay well. 🙂
I’d give the restaurant a 4/5 stars.
If it had Risottoro, it would’ve been a 5.
09:06 just about sums up the video.
I’ll give you a 5/5
Try the puppy ramen next time.
did you go on pig bone day?
You both looked genuenly happy, loved it!! From the whole wide world!!
@Flinty94 LOL! You Win the Internet today
Ryotaro shouting out the smaller channels, what a champ.
@Ethan S Doing good man, thank you. Hoping the same for you.
@Ethan S 😂😂
A minor British RUclipsr no less..
Hehee….no one replied to this post because calling Chris’s channels as smaller…LOL. You mean 10x as big?
Ryotoro is the type of guy who can kill 2 stones with 1 bird
Underrated comment😂
Or with a shovel and and mallet
Damn.. I laughed than I should've
Your comment made me actually lol. Ryotoro is the new Chuck Norris!
jb0258 Unknown fact, actually Chuck Norris is the American version of Ryotaro
"From spin-off series Away in Japan" Oof, you did him dirty Ryotoro 😂
Still better than calling him Freelance Peasant.
I saw that and about died.
Ah yes, Britain's national treasure, Dave In Japan
What is this about? I feel really confused because I am a Dave
@@Bronawix Its an inside joke
I love Dave in Japan!!
@@Bronawix Someone recognized Chris in public and kept saying they knew him. "Your are Dave in Japan, I watch your channel!"
COME ON RUclips
One of the reasons why I opened my restaurant is, many come to Japan for its food and I wanted to introduce the dishes that use the locally sourced ingredients to whoever visit the area.
And now I would like to know what kind of Japanese dish you want to try next time you visit Japan apart from Sushi and Puppy Ramen as those are too ordinary 😋
Hope i can dine in your restaurant soon. Ryotaro san :)
I want to go a first time
I'll try it next time I'm there!
You have to add risotto to your menu :)
O BOZ Is that a joke? Yeah, how dare he accept money from _himself_ to show his own restaurant on his own channel 😂 Bye bye then to you sir.
Chris is right, Ryotaro's Risottoro would sell like mad! I'd order it :P
Promise to tell the chef
Me too
The rest of Chris's name ideas were absolutely shit. But Ryotoro's Risotto is gold.
With some sauce to look like blood and another murder weapon different than the shovel and the mallet. Like a badass trident.
Maybe have it as a special off the list? 😅
Chris said one of his biggest annoyances about Japan was the lack of beer gardens/outdoor seating. Glad to see Ryotaro took it on board
This was one of Ryotaro’s Assasination attempts,
Attempt failed, Ryotaro Forgot the poison at home
How did you know that? Left my Fugu the blow fish at home!
I’m a undercover spy working for Chris, You better watch yourself Ryotaro
Itachi Uchiha I’m just built different
Also he left an escape route there through the window 🤣
@Itachi Uchiha It's not grammatically correct.
Ryotaro: "This is vegan frien.."
Chris: "Fried Chicken?!?!"
thumb up for local people
This channel was built on irony.
I love that there’s vegan options at his restaurant 😌
@@succubusbunie Me too, I put it on the list of places to visit when I visit japan because of this. :)
"put the mallet down" was not a sentence I was expecting to hear going into this video
I thought Ryotaro's Japan meant we would see Ryotaro's perspective on Japan, but it seems like it actually means that Ryotaro is a yakuza boss and owns the entirety of Japan.
It would seem like Chris has done something to piss off the yakuza...
With the amount of his history that we currently know, this may very well be a possibility 🤔
My take on the lore is that Chris got into trouble with Ryotaro's yakuza group but Ryotaro spared him in exchange for brittish accent lessons
He’s getting poison killed
@@Bigassboya
Now Chris is apart of their group and attempts to make Ryotaro experience ego death in return.
Its nice seeing that Ryotaro does something with his time besides plotting sword usage on expats... but also leave it to Ryotaro to include weapons disguised as utensils for every stage of your meal.
Murder jokes aside, I do appreciate mini shovels and mallets in restaurants :) I wish I could visit Japan soon, I'd love to support Ryotaro's restaurant.
Our local Sushi Restaurant offers a matcha soy custard with chocolate crumps over it and a shovel 😊 it looks really cute and comes in a little plant pot.
I can’t believe I got onto this so quickly.
The algorithm giveth
That Chris guy is really funny. It would be great if he started his own channel!
Yeah totally, perhaps a cooking channel: A Broad A Pan.

I heard his evil twin has a channel called Dave In Japan. This Chris guy made a cameo in his channel once. Not sure why he was in a closet though
@@aquarocket8165 Isn't he that British spy guy?
"After regaining consciousness..." 😂
52k subs in and he already got his own restaurant. Meanwhile chris trying to find skateboard for skate through japan
hope your restaurant will get good reviews and that it will be translated correctly
Good luck and tell me when you are in Germany
Or we can check the astonishingly wrong translations like puppy ramen !
I will make sure that our menu won't be translated to Kitty noodle or Puppy rice.
@@RyotarosJapan wait, you're not going to be selling puppy ramen?!

@@Ashley-jp4nn Pork bone day sounds like something David Cameron would enjoy...

You have to admit though, he does have a point.
@@peter.24.7 well true
Ryotoro showing off how much of a suave business man he really is. 👏👏👏
I always knew Ryotaro was some kind of secret millionaire
Well, he is.
Well he does own stock in Kia
Its just a cover for his real job... but we cant talk about it
@@NineEyeRon Hitman assassin x)
@@Kirby-Krios we don’t talk about it!
Of course he co-owns a restaurant, it's his secret lair where he hides after each failed assassination attempt.
I love how much more relax Ryotaro is when filming with Chris, need more off this ryotaro on every Vid!!! And rissotaros dish will definitely be a bonus lol
that title Ryotaro?😂😂😂 I wonder who it could be?! Haha love the relationship between you and Chris, can't wait for more videos !
protect your culture dont let it fade, its amazing to see you actually help do something to preserve it
Ryotaro
Economy stimulant, restaurateur, gentlemanly sporting assassin.
I suspect those are the first vegetables Chris has eaten in about 5 years.
Or the better part of his life. British meals aren’t exactly known for their vegetable components unless its beans or bread.
Can't believe Chris "Away in Japan" survived another attempt.
Chris walked in like a health inspector 😂
Ryotaro: “We’ve had a lot of young people coming to this town, enjoying themselves. We are quite happy about that.”
1:21 *baby cries*
Me: “hmm, maybe a bit too young”
I didn't know Ryotaro had a RUclips channel! This discovery made my day 🖤 omggg
Just as expected, the Ryotaro's restaurant is a classy and exquisite option. I'll save money eating at Yoshinoya just to dive into those dishes when traveling to Sendai :D
I hope you got to try the restaurant this comment is a year old!
OK I feel slightly stupid atm. I've just now realized Chris is left handed.
Also nice restaurant
Same here. Youre not alone 🤣
Ryatoro's and Chris friendship is really kinda like bros for life and they really have fun togather. Every time I see both of them together you can never get bored even for a second.
He's getting better at editing I like it. Special shout outs to the 911(119) bit(joke) at the end.
I love seeing the chemistry between good friends. Chris always looks happy with Ryotaro and Natsuki.
I'm not even vegan but that vegan dish looked amazing!
This place is absolutely on my bucket list for Japan!
When Ryotaro took the mallet out of Chris's hand and just smacked the dessert, I laughed way too hard.
Ryotaro Mate the production quality is next level with this video. Its great to see how your editing skills are improving with every video. And I wish you the best of luck with your restaurant.
That’s the first time I’ve seen Chris eat so many vegetables 😂😂😂😂
it was refreshing seeing chris as a side character. This was a nice video Ryotaro.
"After regaining consciousness" got me good. Nice vibes in the restaurant and the video.
NICE! Whoever shot and edited this video deserves some props.
After watching your food 'review' videos, I'm not surprised you own a restaurant. Very nice. I'm sure quite a lot of people / your fans would like to go to your restaurant after quarantine is over.

Also just need to say this. For someone who hasn't been doing this for very long the quality of the content is mind-blowing. Absolutely love what you do!
Is this the first time Chris hasn't said "melts in the mouth"?
It's the first thing he's ate that literally can't melt in your mouth lmao
Great to see you finally start your own channel and break away from that British bloke who was leaching off of your creative genius Ryotaro! Lol!

How often do you get a restaurant themed around having equipment meant for the disposal a single person. That Ryotaro laugh goes well with it.
Ahhh a nice cover up for the Yakuza "business"
Nicely done risottoro
It really is a lovely restaurant, Ryotaro. Even if you've tainted it by having Chris visit. ;)
Wow! Ryotaro the quality in this video is amazing! I can tell such a big difference from your first video. I’m glad you see your amazing growth and hope to keep supporting you! That food also looks sooo amazing 🤤
4:03 this takes "dig in" to a whole new level.
The production for this video is much better than your earlier works. You're really coming into making videos! Good stuff as usual!

"911, what is your emergency?"
"Came here *static* to kill you *static* PUT THE MALLET DOWN!! *static*"

That British guy looks like he's fun to watch, he should start his own RUclips channel.
It might even be a success if he do start one.
This was so funny I loved the editing. Ryotaro is awesome!
Oddly when Chris first appears in the frame he is taller than Ryotaro. Then when they sit down Ryotaro is taller as though Chris was given a children’s chair. I wonder if there is some gamesmanship going on here.
Chris is probably just slouching...
Love the video! Beautiful place

Glad you made your own channel! I always enjoyed you the Episodes of Chris's Channel. Can't wait to see more!
How many calories are in the slice of log? I’m on a diet and don’t want to overdo it

Awesome restaurant Ryotaro. I lived and worked in Kyoto for many years and I can affirm that your restaurant has all the class and character of some of the best restaurants in Kyoto. Beautiful place and the presentation of the food is outstanding.
There's a lot of killing talk between Ryotaro and this Dave guy.
