Kobe is a culinary city known (and loved) for its premium namesake beef and sake. But this didn’t happen overnight-there was a 1200-year period in Japan during which the Emperor of Japan banned the consumption of meat. This restriction ended in the Meiji period in the late 1800’s when the country opened up to foreign traders and Western influence. Shizuka takes us on a multi-sensory journey through the charming city of Kobe in Hyogo Prefecture.
Shizuka begins her premium beef quest at the Kobe City Wholesale Western Market, the processing plant for Kobe beef and the site of the famed cattle auctions. Our cheerful host sanitary suits-up and heads inside the auction quarters, where she marvels at a Kobe beef auction and quizzes one of the auctioneers on the process.
The next stop on this culinary tour of Kobe is Nada, one of Japan’s top sake-producing regions! Shizuka arrives at Nadagogo-sakedokoro, a brewery turned community gathering place to sip on and appreciate the region's famed sake. Shizuka toasts to the gods and slings back some nihonshu (sake) with the Nadagogo operator. He presents her with a flight of the finest before they continue to tour the facilities.
With her spirit fuelled by sake, Shizuka ventures to Arima Onsen-a hot spring town in the mountains of Kobe with a history dating back over a 1,000 years. Here, Kobe’s superstars combine for a Kobe beef and sake pairing at Gekkoen Hot Spring Hotel. Shizuka marvels at the spacious room ahead of her evening meal. With a click of Shizuka’s fingers, a grand multi-course feast appears, starring Kobe beef and accompanied by premium sake, of course.

I’m always so impressed how beautiful the presentation is of the food in Japan!
They really are super attentive to the food aesthetics!
Great seeing you Shizuka with another great video, Sunday is always a bit brighter thanks to you.
Glad to hear that!🎉
Drives me insane how good the food looks. 🤤
So good 😊
This is giving me Begin Japanology vibes and I’m here for it! Really well thought out and presented 👍
oh she can easily do a Japanology series and I would love it :)
People say I look like you and that’s a really great compliment 😁❤️💯🥰💕
it most definitely is.
さすがといったところですね、日本で最も有名な神戸牛と灘の酒、日本人でも知らないところが多く、またいいお店と宿泊で参考になります。
いつもながら、カメラワークと編集が秀逸で見ていて気持ちがよいです。
そして、日本で最も美しいレポーターのSHIZUKAさんがいるので、見ていて楽しいですね😊
Now I KNOW I must go back to Kobe... Thank you for this very interesting video!
You seriously have one of the best jobs in the world!😉
Keep up the great work.
Thanks, will do!🎉
All dishes looked really delicious especially the Kobe beef sukiyaki. I absolutely love Kobe city so I really enjoyed this video.
Glad you enjoyed!
Hi Shizuka! We love your videos! We appreciate you!
I adore your charme and that wonderful japanese culture you let me get to know - thank you!
Thanks!
Thank you! We truly appreciate it!🎉
Can't wait to go back home! Going to eat so much meat when I get back~ 😋
Kobe Queen! 👑🇯🇵❤🇵🇭
Morning everyone!
All that Kobe beef looked delicious. I normally watch your videos at night and it makes me so hungry. 😮. I would absolutely consider a trip to Kobe to sample some of those. And you continue to do an amazing job as presenter of these shows. This channel is one of my most watched. I always crave fresh content from Asia.
Kobe beef was TOP! We are glad you like the content!❤
Nice outfit Shizy !!
Kobe looks absolutely beautiful. As do you. 🙂
I grew up Christian but have Indigenous ancestry from Canada. I find the Shinto thinking and design very similar to our traditional culture and it feels very calming to my soul. I think it may be the harmony with nature that's a big part of who we are.
It does feel calming:) ❤
That food pairing is amazing.
It really is!
@@JapanbyFood I'd travel just for that pairing. Again great video
I wish I had the funds. Lol. That's y I love shows like this. Y'all go for me.
love the amount of Vintage in this video, from the food to the materials it's really fantastic, and happiness is a bite of Kobe beef and a sip of Sake away, I'll have to get some next time I go out, but first I need to check out the BTS of this wonderful production
Thank you so much! Please enjoy the behind the scenes!
Love to see Japanese chef prepare there food 😊 thanks for the video!
Fantastic video, I really enjoyed it thank you
Love love love your videos Shizuka! Your food/sake pairings were fantastic; really enjoy your smiles and explanations of all you are doing. Please make more videos soon….!!🙃
Will make moreee!
You make me want to go to Japan!! Love your content!!!
Hi Shizzy!!! Hi Japan By Food!!! Have a good day. Cheers 🍻🍺😍🖤😁😊
Amazing video as always!
Shizuka is so gorgeous. I get many knowledge of Kobe beef.
You and uncle JImmy brought out back to back KObe vids!
Uuuuuh! The more Kobe content the better! ❤
omg this is so so so amazing!
Loving those wellies Shizuka ! 🤩Your smile always brings a smile to every one watching you ...😊...All that sake 🙄

Shizuka, my dream drinking buddy 🍺
Oh..it is my dream to have wagyu and Sake for a dinner! Never been to Kobe before, it should be on my list next trip to Japan!
Please add it!❤
The one, the only, the Immortal Shizzy.
Kobe beef and sake ….These are a few of my favourite things
that steak looks so good
great channel...shizuka makes the channel...fan from Canada!
Thanks
Bery good footage while drinking sake(白鹿）!
Another great video!
We stayed kobe 1 night and ofcourse had the Kobe beef for dinner. The chinatown there is so clean and cute little harbour
Oh wow, when was this filmed? I was in Kobe staying at the Meriken Park Oriental Hotel Sept 1-3.
Shizuka, at the sake pairing, you didn't drink ALL that sake....did you? LOL! He sure gave you a LOT just for tasting!
kobe beef the best in the world
Love the content, 4 weeks till I’m in Japan! ✈️
Wohooo! Please have fun!
I knew about Kobe beef and Nada sake, but I didn't know about the places to pair them. I'll be sure to stop by when I visit in November.
Salivating... The meat looks super tender!! Which is yummier between Kobe and Wagyu beef? How are they different?
were you one of the guests of Shun Chan on that suprise home sushi episode? i said to myself.. hey,, that's shizuka, isn;t it? anyway.. great food! its so mouth-watering as always.
I'll be there in November!
I like the meals from the Ryokan and it’s perfect matched
Oh that was a super feast!🎉
Looks delicious! I cant really handle lots of alcohol so a Sake tasting on a hot day would certaily give me a good buzz :D
The Kobe beef and sake looked so tasty and flavorful Shizuka! Which sake would you recommend I should try with Kobe beef? But thanks for the video Shizuka! Oyasumi na sai!
Live near Kobe and never had kobe beef...I need to change that after watching this video!
I love your reaction whenever you eat Kobe beef. Like you have ascended to heaven. LOL!
It does feel like it!
All looks absolutely amazing, the beef, the saki, the whole atmosphere..... And you look a little bit drunk as well as beautiful! 🤣😂
It was a fun day!🎉
@@JapanbyFood Yes, I'm sure it was! 🙂
Another good pairing with sake is chicken. sake-steamed chicken with tons of ginger
That "unagi-ross-friends" reference though 😆
Nice catch!
April we were in Kobe we had fantastic Kobe beef A4 and A5 was delISH!!!! 🥩
But I never knew sake was a thing in Kobe!!!!😮
Nice vid guys!!!! Kumpai 🍶
Loved the funky music too @15:50
Wow! You have been there recently! How cool!
Shizukaaaaaaa
Shizuka's cheerful toast 🍻 It's so good🎉
who is gradually turning red, is wonderful
It was a lot of fun❤
Thank you for your reply😊 I'm looking forward to it from now on. By the way, I eat a lot, but is it twice as much as training🏋️?
We need your usually “I’m Shizuka Anderson” please
Good Friends “unagi” reference. Lol. 😂
Hehe 😜
Great seeing you Shizuka with another great video. But the background music is to high. It´s diificul to hear what Shizuka say, the music takes over. Same thing in many videos with Shizuka and Japan by Food videos
Sake😍😍😍😍🙏🙏🙏👌
Next time I come to Japan for work I really need to stay long enough that I have time to venture outside Tokyo.
Please do! There is so much to explore outside of Tokyo!
Shizuka as always a great vlog
Please ship the sake home asap 😉
Was the bath full of hot sake ?
Wish it was!
Another tough day at the office... (yes, Original is my middle name 😀). Shizuka, do you think hangover-prevention drinks like Ukon-no-Chikara work?...
Enjoyable vlog (especially Arima Onsen), thanks team
お姉さんお酒強い！競り、酒蔵、旅館料理と一歩踏み込んだ食レポが素晴らしいです。
I was in Kobe last June, and it was unbearably hot; I can't imagine how hot it is now (September). Another thing than disappointed me was that all the Kobe beef restaurants were closed between 2pm-5pm, and you needed a reservation to eat at most restaurants, and you had to speak Japanese to make a reservation. Don't expect to be able to just stop by to eat the Kobe beef. You need to plan ahead.
good tips
Usually restaurants close after lunch time to prepare for dinner, therefore 2-5pm closing 🥲 and yes, many times you do need to reserve in advance! That’s why we started the platform byFood.com to make the reservations easier even without Japanese ❤ good luck next time !
I don't know where you are from but I'll guess the United States. You could benefit from an etiquette lesson. Do your travel research, the Country does not bend to you; you must adapt and be respectful (which most traveller are not). Learn to speak the local languages in phrases ( get a translation book or google), learn the cultural do's & don't and most importantly be humble kind & respectful. If you do your travels will be enriched.
Dear Shizzy, I love you.
If I was to do what you did on this video, I would be so happy. Why? Because I would be drunk by the end and forget how much I spent the day before. Lol
Oh that's very intriguing about how they heat up the sake! It's got to be precise control of temperature or the alcohol will evaporate out. And while I can think of some Western hot drinks that have booze added (e.g., an Irish Coffee) I can't recall anyone heating up a western alcohol to drink straight.
It is a cool concept!
I have always drank my sake warm, it brings out the flavors beautifully. I learned it from an older Japanese friend I used to work with.
I wonder if that nadagogo sakedokoro is open to public? How much it will cost to get those sake experiences? Since on november i’ll be back to japan again😅
where's the link to the japanbyfood tour?
❤
i've long waited for this video, because Kobe City and Shizuka are two of my favorites.
The more Shizuka drank, the more fluently she seemed to explain how attractive Kobe is.
How much can she drink and eat in spite of her slender shape?
I just drink magnun wine in a glass instead of sake because you can't get the 1.5L bottle here in the States. I might have to special order it looks so good out of those ceramic sake sets with the Tokkuri Bottle decanter. so jealous!
It elevates the taste for sure!
I do that because I always drink one and want another and can't drink in public in the usa. hahahaha@@JapanbyFood
Question was she ok after all that sake lol hope you give her a brake after lol grate video
wagyu wagyu wagyu, my sailor of a father always said Kobe Beef, now I know.
While she was at the auction, I kept thinking about Bovine University. 😂
It'd be interesting to see Shizuka get sloshed on the sake.... lol... Will the cheerful bubbliness be amplified or will she be a grumpy drunk 🤣😂
Soon! Hehe 😜
music used in the video please! you guys did an amazing job!
Thanks a lot!
@@JapanbyFood please give credit to the music artist !!!
Their music is so calming
Suggestion of accommodation near the narital airport in December 🎄
Narita Airport? Depending on your price range, there's thousands of options! Your best bet is a booking website.
@@Chuck8541 , thank you
@@ladyhaltom No prob!
Narita is actually about 35 or 55 mins away from Central Tokyo by train. Haneda Airport is a lot closer - but you'll still need to catch a train into Tokyo from either. I'd just grab whichever flight is cheaper to fly into.
I'd suggest trying to land during the day - if possible - catch the shuttle train (forgot the exact name of it, but there are plenty of signs) to get to Tokyo, and connect to any neighborhood you're interested in staying.
There's TONS of lodging for all kinds of budgets! From super cheap hostels to spartan - but totally fine and inexpensive businessman hotels, and of course fancy luxury hotels!
I was actually looking at December prices the other day - flights and lodging, and they're already going up, it's best to book as soon as you can.
Have a great trip! My first trip to Tokyo was in the December holiday season a few years ago. It's SO nice to walk around and explore in the crisp cool air, and there are so many beautiful light displays all over the city. You're gonna love it!
Have a great trip! 🙂👍
I'm a bit jealous. I have alcohol allergies and can't really do sake. I'd be all over the Kobe beef, though!
Hi Shizuka, I'm curious, how many kilos did you purchase in the Kobe Beef auction? By the way, I've heard some concerns about its impact on the environment, and I'm still contemplating that. 😊🌍🌍🐄🐄
i love shizuka more than kobe beef
me too !
I want to eat sushi off shizuka
Girl drank a lotta sake today
Portable Shade > Umbrella
Yep!
I’m so Hungry……
How hung over was Shizuka after this lol?
Are kids allowed to enter/ dine-in for the sake food pairing? Parents to enjoy (not the kids)
Are you a driving license because you are driving me crazy
🩵🩵🩵🇯🇵
As indicated by Shizuka's slurred speech and bright red cheeks towards the end of the video. The poor lass had all the Kobe beef and alcohol her petite frame could tolerate which says a lot about the quality of the food!
Shizuoka, enjoyed the video until the camera showed your fake clip on obe😢
POOR YOUNG COW NO CHOICE & RIGHTS IT NEED SACRIFICE HIMSELF TO FEED THE MASSES. 😢😢😢
who ever was your editor. where they put the name to spot should be is way off.
I live here in Kobe, and I can say Kobe beef is way over rated, and defiantly way over priced.
