- We taste A5 Kobe Beef (A5), the highest grade of beef in Japan and have our taste buds ignited. What better way to spend our time in Kobe of Day 18 of Journey Across Japan (and send off Pete).

A big shoutout to Pete Donaldson for joining Journey Across Japan, he'll be sorely missed! To find out who's joining us next as we journey south towards Hiroshima, be sure to check out the end of the video, when he who must not be named is finally revealed.
And for more of Pete, you can always tune in to the Abroad in Japan podcast, where we discuss all things Japan, every single Thursday! (Podcast: hyperurl.co/nhgr30)
Arigatou cowzaimasu!
So excited for my favorite guest yet xD
I usually like your vids, but please don't promote meat consumption 'cause meat=murder 😢🐮
sorry british beef is better ;)
@@Stephanie-oy6od no its called food to eat or it could be like me saying killing a cabbage get real
Forget "melt in your mouth" it's now "meat so good it makes you blind"
It's certainly a not-so-subtle way to say "food porn, AKA mouth masturbation", isn't it?
The creature from Bird box IS A5 Kobe beef.
80% of this channels videos are about food, 18% adventure, 2% other stuff, with sarcasm sprinkled on the top
British sarcasm
scrans pays at the end of the day
Isn't that just the recipe for the ideal life
Makes sense. 80% of Japanese TV is about food.
Nay, I'm sure it's because Chris loves food :p
Legends say Pete’s still wandering the streets of japan, trying to get back to north northern UK.
I think he meant northern England
@@Aithis. r/woooosh
Clearly you aren't familiar with London cartography. "Northern UK" is anything outside of the M25, "north northern UK" is anything north of Birmingham and "northest UK" is Scotland.
@@mosley3485 how did you cram so much geography on that island. Lol
@@mosley3485 Clearly you aren't familiar with non-UK standard North UK. North northern UK of non-UK people is north northern UK. Whatever that is
It's taken me way longer than I'm proud of to realize that your channel name is a play on your surname. Clever Broad.
Lol I'm subscribed for more than a year and I realised it today (Plot twist: Not by your comment)
Just heard it from a podcast
@@danzanbattumur2669 seems like we got the same suggestion in youtube's homepage then hahaha
His name needed to be determined that's why he used "A broad in japan" :'D
Trash podcast bring me here
The Risottoro introduction was definitely the best preview yet😂
The man that jumps out of nowhere and chris decides to focus on him 😂😂😂
Risottoro OMEGALUL I'm dying.
Timeustampu purisu
Dandy man endo obu za bideo desu.
Risottoro in da house .... u know what that means MORE KOBE BEEF!!!!!!!!!! YEAH
I'm gonna miss that Pete guy! At least he was well fed before you left him on the street...I'm greatly enjoying this trend of abandoning your guests at the end of their tour in random locations. Cant wait to see where 'Risottoro' ends up at the end of his tour :3
This is with hopes that Ryotaro doesn't successfully assassinate Chris on his time as the guest lol
THE RETURN OF RYOTARO
Chris's Revenge! 🎥
I'd watch it! ✋👍
It will probably end up with chris being left in some trunk of a random car and risottoro cycling away into the mountains.
Is no one going to mention the fact that Mr. Donaldson's shirt has an uncanny resemblance to the marbling of wagyu. (If not quite as well marbled as that being eaten)
It also has the initials of out great soviet union writen upon it
@@mihneasuditu8789 easily spotted for the zombies. "Hey guys, it's A5. A5!"
Bryan Cranston: you're listening to abroad in japan.
Abroad in japan: you're God damn right.
I love this comment!!!
I love those guest abandoning endings xD I was unsure at first but the more you do it the more it becomes you and you look like a savage badass XD
Just when we get used to the guest and warm up to them being with Chris, and enjoy some good times... BAM they're left like a baby at the firehouse.
Pete's chopstick technique is... unique.
I only noticed when editing this video haha
This.. I thought it was an odd angle at first but seeing Pete's hand holding the chopsticks I damn near broke my neck from the violent double-take my head automatically launched into
Tommy Sörensen I’m actually impressed he was able to eat like that.
lmao I was just about to say that it agitates me the way he holds them. lol
Once my partner pointed it out, I couldn't focus on anything else! A true mystery.
9:41 My man just had a premium A5 Kobe experience but he still can't help but toss McD's a thirsty glance. Respect.
😂🤣
the affable glutton
one month without a new abroad in japan video, i've reduced the sarcasm in my every day interaction, i'm actually becoming a likable human being, please chris save me, post more videos.
When does the "Pete In Japan" channel begin?
My suggestion for a channel name has always been Donny In Shibuya 😂
He's there often enough.
Several times a year according to the podcast.
Quite jealous of him, really
I would rather call it "Adonaldson in Japan" ;)
Nicolai didn’t expect to see you here
@@FranMcAlpine you're pretty sexy
*plot twist: Bryan Cranston is the next guest*
That would be amazing.....
I swear if Bryan Cranston was in Japan only 50 miles from me, I will end this world.
Plot twist to the plot twist, Ken Watanabe is the next guest but he's wearing a Bryan Cranston mask.
It is really Brian Cranston wearing a Risottoro mask. Or is it Ken Watanabe wearing a Brian Cranston mask wearing a Risottoro mask? The tension is killing me right now.
I feel like I got baited into this video from the thumbnail. :(
I wanted to see Bryan Cranston in japan eating A5 beef and giving some thoughts. I am disappoint. AIJ needs to make some phone calls, and get Cranston in a video please. ;)
I've lived in Kobe for about a year and half some time ago, and I had one of the best experience of my life so far in terms of food.
Besides the Kobe beef, which was too expensive for me, there was the first Russian restaurant that opened in Japan and has history of something like 100 years. There was a China town. Lots of good Indian restaurant. Some of the best Turkish, Vietnamese, Thai restaurants I've ever been to. One of the best Naples style pizza. You will never get tired of food there.
And of course lots of cheap and good Japanese restaurants.
You can also enjoy a weekend by hiking over the Rokko mountain and taking a dip in an onsen on the other side of the mountain, a nice 5 ~ 6 hour hike. Then you can just hop on to a bus or train and be back to the center of Kobe in half an hour or so.
I really miss Kobe....
imagine travelling across japan, eating delicious food, and being able to write it off as a business expense
the life
That Kobe beef looks “justice delicious”
I'm sure it's price effective
It exceeds the sky of time
*dewishish you mean
Pete was hilarious, just as great as he is on the podcast
I would like the next one, please.
U everywhere lol. Pls reply to this comment
L
"that will cost 1000 bucks,sir"
first time i ate kobe beef a massive tear went down my cheek, honestly was so amazing one of the few times i felt glad to be alive,
the chef probably thought i was a weirdo tho
For you non-Brits watching, "minted" is UK slang for rich or wealthy in case you thought it meant that someone was covered in mint leaves or mint oil~
Thanks.
Or in case anyone thought about coins.
It is always great to get an answer for a question you didn’t even ask. 😉
@Manga Fury it's not London slang, it's northern 😁 but a bit old school I guess. Londoners nick loads of phrases!!
I actually was thinking that, thanks!
Greets from México City.
Rumour has it to this day, Pete is to still out there, looking for his luggage...
How far north do you need to go to be north of northern UK?
**rofl**
9:26 we'll be back tomorrow. Said Chris Broad LAST YEAR!!!
I originally found your channel when searching for a bit of info on an upcoming trip to Japan I’m planning, but I was very surprised by the outstanding quality of your content, and you’ve come to be one of my favorite content creators! Keep it up mate
Chris, you are quite possibly the ONLY RUclipsr to NOT say that the beef "MeLtS iN mY mOuTh". That makes me happy. Thank you.
He's already said that in the other two or three videos he's made featuring Wagyu beef. xD
Only because Risottoro scolds Chris every time he does describe food as "melts in your mouth" lol.
“dissolves in impact”
I ate Kobe beef 3 days in a row (large amounts) and got really sick, then I waited for 2 days and did it all over again. Totally worth it.
Hahahaah
Wow. All A5 grades?
I always empty my entire body either 2 hours later or the next morning, totally worth it!
and here i am, eating cup ramen 3 days in a row (large amounts) and got really sick, then waited 2 days and did it all over again. not worth it.
I'm guessing money isn't an issue for yourself? 👀
How did I just find this channel a couple of weeks ago? I love Chris' dry humor and his adventures are amazing! I'm living vicariously through him in this pandemic.
Where has Chris gone?
Not seen any new videos for 4 weeks.....
I hope he's okay :O
Soon(tm) @Manga Fury
he died
@@temshop5757 Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Good beef deserves whispering." Amen to that!!
I'd be too nervous to eat it.
Wow! You managed to not use the phrase "melt in your mouth"!!
Kobe is my favourite city in Japan. Wonderful place I called home for 5 years. The people, sights, food, not too big not too small, just an amazing place. 😌
Just recently got into the Abroad in Japan podcast, very entertaining. Recommend it to anyone who is subbed to this channel.
Also had A5 wagyu from a vendor in Tsukiji, who probably cooked the beef terribly, but it was still the best beef I ever had. I don't think its possible to have bad wagyu. Lol
“Arigato Cowzaimasu” Sounds like Pete has been learning Japanese from Natsuki! 😆 Oh man, that was the best preview ever. Risottoro has become a true Bond villain.
Seems like Ryotaro finally pulled it off , folks! He found a way to assassinate Chris
I love the incredible detail in this video, I've been watching your videos in chronological order. I've almost caught up to the present but I could definitely see the improvement in the video production. I love your videos Chris, I listen to your podcast, you have inspired me to travel. I'm anxiously waiting for the day I save up enough money for my own trip to Japan and I hope its as wonderful as I believe it is and that I could do at least half the things you have. Keep up the good work.
Hype for Ryotaro's next plan to assassinate Chris
Risottaro appears
the community(especially Chris): "NANI?!?"
Crap, it must have worked since it has been two weeks now!
I’m gonna miss Pete
His indecipherable dialect will be sorely missed.
Lol. I quickly read that as 'I'm going to piss meat'
@@exert2020 That's going straight on my list of favorite spoonerisms. I love it
Recently discovered your channel and I love your videos. I've just been adding almost everything from your videos to a list of places to see and food to eat whenever I visit Japan.
I love he always leaves his guests like this at the end each time xD
Lmao ikr
you guys are just perfect together. love the podcast by the way!!! i could listen to you talk about anything
I'd like to test that theory by dedicating an hour long episode to narrating paint drying.
It'd potentially work in an artistic post-modernist kinda way.
@@AbroadinJapan don't threaten me with a good time
@@AbroadinJapan Pete would go off on tangents you could never imagine. I listen to pretty much every podcast Pete is on and I'd still listen to that!
Woo-hoo! I'm the 1,122,811th subscriber! That makes me special. This subscription has given me a whole life upgrade! 10/10 would recommend.
Congratulations Sebastian! You’re the chosen one.
@@AbroadinJapan *IF* i'm in #Japan I'd be grateful to know what the radio station is that has your mate { in this video } Pete Donaldson on , what's the name of his radio show including local Japanese time of station of broadcast & *THAT STATION'S* radio frequency. 👨💻🇦🇺 👥🥩🇯🇵💱🍦🫂
@@Friendship1nmillion Pete Donaldson @ Absolute Radio
Happy new year ! Thanks for the videos, it's great to escape reality from time to Time.
You and your guests/friends are amazing and the videos you make are a must watch for me👍
I think the walking off and leaving the guest stranded is my favourite gag in this series xD
ありがとう牛ざいます
What does this say???
@@joefish6783 Arigatou gyuzaimasu. Pun on thank you inserting "cow" into "thank you". "Arigatou cowzaimasu"
@@markfrost4064 ah thank you
@@joefish6783 7:42 This.
Sharla we miss you. Get yourself back on that bicycle young lady and ride across Japan 😅
This is why I like this channel when it comes to food; Other food review channels will do the "food pron" type thing where the descriptions and the glory shots go on and on - there is nothing wrong with that, but this gets down to business.
The intro music is so catchy, it gets me pumped for the new episode! Also now im so hungry!!
Chris, you’re gonna have to update Pete’s podcast title to “Top London Radio DJ, certified Japanofile, AND juiciest beef in the whole wide world, Pete Donaldson.”
WOW!! in Natsuki voice
Pls
@@yellofury Every time I hear that on the podcast, a part of my brain goes "If Christopher Walken was Japanese, he would sound just like Natsuki."
Haha now I cant unhear it
Woah tbis is so strange I literally was looking at your channel just then thinking, “I wonder when the next part will come out” that’s so strange. Also I want to thank you deeply for answering my question on the podcast a few weeks ago. My name is Zak. You answered my question about teaching in japan. It has helped me so so much so thank you so much
That’s so cute, Zak, thank you.
Happy new year honestly I suck at Internet but love your show and it inspires me to learn more Japanese, you're mountain temple episode was my favorite, best wishes to you and all
You're awesome, really good videos to watch too. Thank you for what you are doing!
It helps me prepare for when I set off for Japan, whether it'll be a short trip or a longer holiday I don't know yet, but I'm super excited :D
7:15 "I've travelled with three guests on this trip so far: Joey from Australia, Sharla from Canada and Pete from the UK" ...poor Natsuki, forgotten already 😢 - he was there riding along on Day One!
Natsuki is not a guest, he is a brother
@@stun2235 a comrade
When I was in Japan we stopped off at Kobe on the Shinkansen and went to a restaurant we heard was pretty good that was in a mall near the station called Wakkoqu. According to the receipt we had an A4.5 cut? Either way it cost 13981 yen after tax for the cut so for both of us together and was still freaking delicious. It introduced me to the experience of steak that melts in your mouth, it was fantastic.
Oh and as for konbini ice treat deserts, you've gotta go either for those Mango ice ball cups from Family Mart, or a classic Gari Gari Kun bar.
That kobe beef was amazingly delicious but on the other end, I loved getting the family mart fried chicken in the middle of the night, there was a 24 hour family mart in the condo I stayed at
Oh fucc cool seeing you here haha
My work in the US serves A5 kobe. It's the coolest thing. I'm actually shocked that pete didn't mention it "melting in your mouth" like you said, because it basically does. He also didn't mention that the incredible softness comes from massaging the cow. The last thing I think pete should have mentioned on it is that if you are going out to eat real kobe, you can ask to see a certificate. All of the A5 cuts (don't know about lower) are given to the dining establishment with a certificate of authenticity. You can make sure your kobe is legit by viewing the certificate.
Wow figureeight it's cool seeing u here!!

Hope you're well Chris, looking forward to seeing the rest of your time biking across Japan. Regards, from Maine.
I love the random things Pete comes out with!
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again
If we ever get a video with Pete, Sharla, Natsuki, and Ryotaro all in one place, it would be the equivalent of Christmas morning PLUS pancakes!
*Go on adventure with person for several days*
*Have many experiences together and eat delicious food*
*Ditch on the side of the road*
Lol
I think people call it Tinder.
@@GoodGuyPlayer2 you young people and your apps I called it Craigslist
Great video, guys! Best of luck in the next leg of the adventure. Already looking forward to the next spine-tingling episode! Ok, maybe not exactly spine-tingling, but you get the idea...
My god, what I wouldn't give to live the life Chris has. It's one thing to watch it, but another entirely to quite literally have your full time job being traveling around Japan and having fun.
So Chris is still trying to avoid saying "it melts in your mouth"
Only outside the bedroom, otherwise he won't stop saying it 8====D
Oh god why xD
That Ryotoro teaser was the hypest shit ever.
Happy New Year! May this be a happy and fruitful year.
Your videos are my favourite content on youtube. Keep up the good work 👍
Can't wait for the next part of Journey Across Japan as your life most likely will be in danger or something perilous.
It's not Abroad in Japan without a good beef review
I'm like binge watching these. They are so fun! I should be able to finish the rest tomorrow. :D
This video is the only reason I know about the podcast. And I'm thankful.
I enjoy Pete Donaldson so much, podcasts and these videos are great entertainment on my way to work.
I'm going to miss Pete he was so cool! I'll check out the Podcast for sure!!
Awesome. Absolutely awesome! A great chef who has amazing skill giving you literally the best cut of beef on the planet. I truly wish I could finance that for all of my students. Just once. Great video!
Your channel is top quality my dude keep it coming
Sees the next guest on Journey Across Japan
Thank you so much Chris my life is now so much better
RISOTTOROOOO
Finally :D
Real british man and now we have the british accent expert.
WHY AYE MAN?
Loving the music used in your videos!😍
Oh , and the Kobe beef looks good too 😃
Awesome. Love this channel!
noooo i'm gonna miss Pete so much!
I remember his very first words: ''The fish stole my hat!''
“Good beef deserves whispering” that has to be on a T-shirt! 😂💪🏻
I can't get over your intro dude, loving the 80's vibe 👌. Can't wait to visit 🇯🇵
See you tomorrow~ *Over one month ago*
Love the podcast and the preview for the next episode was perfect. I know you put a lot of time into editing these videos and it is appreciated. I have always wanted to visit Japan as I, too, am a self-certified Japanophile :) thanks for sharing so I can live vicariously!
Holy shit, two videos in a week!!??!!
The trip must be over. Now there's time to edit and smash out videos on a more regular basis?
I believe he is on holiday in the UK till the end of the year.
Wow I'm not tired of your vids yet. Keep it up man.
slowly catching up on your videos, but gotta say Pete is definitely my favorite out of all of your guests.
That feeling when Chris finally has someone who can describe food decently and he gives him a hard time for using fancy words to describe the food instead of calling it "incredible" or "melts in your mouth". Joking aside, another great video, thank you and please keep them coming.
Man I want to have Kobe beef also I love how you have kanji on screen as you say the name, please keep doing that very helpful as a Japanese learner
Thanks very much for the "recommendation" to this Kobe restaurant 😁! We ate there while on our honeymoon in Japan and it was decadent. The owner was also very nice and friendly.
We watched your channel a lot for tips on what to do and you haven't failed us yet. Thanks for all you do Chris; keep up the amazing work!
What is this restaurant called? he doesn't seem to mention it...
man... I've just been watching a dozen of videos from your channel over the duration of an afternoon but hell does this feel like an epiphany
Keep it up.
greetings from Germany
Merry Christmas and Happy New year to everyone
I love Ryotoro! Seeing his dramatic entrance gave me chills...
Please could you ask him in one episode about how speaking in Japanese vs English changes the way you think and feel and act? I found that really interesting when you brought it up a few episodes back.
I second that question. I'm curious about the answer, because I watched a video of Ryotaro-san giving a TED talk in Japanese, and I couldn't believe it was the same person;. he seemed so subdued. Some of that can definitely be attributed to a TED talk being a formal setting and Abroad in Japan being informal, but that being said I've also watched some very lively TED talks from the US. I wonder how much of the difference in behaviour is a cultural thing.
I'm bilingual (Spanish and English), and I have the slight inner feeling of being a "different person" in each language. Not massively, but I feel like I act, express myself and gather my thoughts in different ways depending on the language.
It's hard to explain or put into words, but I think it's definitely a thing. Different languages have codes of expression that lead to slightly different information processing.
Ate Kobe beef once in Japan, in the exact same place as the one in the video and it was truly life-changing. Had to resist the temptation of spending on other things during the whole trip but that dinner was 100% worth it. I will never ever look at beef the same way again.
Really enjoyed the Pete episodes
Pete is my fave co-host so far
Haha, Pete sure is a handful! Can’t wait to see Risottoro on your next video 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
Merry Christmas Chris when it comes, awesome vids keep up the great work, love all the vids and gave some great idears on what i want to do when i visit. :)
it always makes my day when i watch one of chris`s videos ^^
Bye Pete! Its been emotional. Funny dude. And now Risotto is back! Awesome!
Why Aye man! I have been looking forward to Ryotaro joining the trip :) The videos you make are absolutely beautiful and Pete really brought in a lot of random fun
I'm watching this after watching the new series. This NEVER gets old.
Gonna be giving your podcast a listen!!
