Love the Samurai culture. You're always a princess to me Shizuka! keep being awesome
Princess Shizuka stans!
Japanese history is always a blast with our host and cameraman! I believe the crew is doing good as costume show the times of feel and importance. At that "little bits" of food make me think I can live a longer age there there in Japan! Thank you!
depends on which part of history. but sure a blast it is
>.
What a great place to visit, I would love to see Odawara Castle and see the Armor and Swords!
It really is worth!
Japanese culture is overall very fascinating, from food to the architecture to fashion, craftsmanship, there's a lot of beauty to it. I love this type of content that is very informative.
We are glad to hear that! There is so much to discover when it comes to Japanese culture!
That uiro sweet mochi looked so juicy soft!!!!😊👌🏻
Jeff was a great host!!!! 👍🏻
Uiro hit the spot!!! So good!
@@JapanbyFood 👌🏻
This is one of the best episodes of this channel
We appreciate that! Thank you for watching!
I visited this city a few years ago. It was amazing but we didn't have a tour guide that knew so much about the history. Watching this felt like I learned so much, and having the memories of visiting the castle only made me more impressed. I will have to visit again soon.
We are glad you could learn! There are so many great stories in Odawara!
Cheers to the Japan By Food team, always putting out top their content. Thank you for all your hard work. Also, Shizuoka is an amazing host. She brings such a great energy and her ability to describe the food she tries is amazing. Keep up the good work! Maybe I will be lucky enough to run into you guys when I am there in November.
Cheers! We really appreciate your support! Hope to see you in November!
the geisha games are rarely showcased anywhere, really cool to see! the creativity and presentation of the food made me depressed as I eat my fried chicken dinner..
They are super cool to hang out with! You can learn a lot about their lives and witness their craft! Food was impeccable ofc!
21:42 I guess that explains why the Japanese make many great rhythm games.
A lot of history.
And a lot of Fun!
YESSSS!
@@JapanbyFood No doubt!
Shizuka should be made into a travel ambassador by Japan she has done so much in terms of tourism through this channel❤ and i love her too😘

One lifetime is not enough to discover all the amazing things here!
Her Highness Shizuka san, having the time of her life.❤. Great episode team Shizuka.
It was super enjoyable!
Your tour guide's so charming.
He was so amazing and knowledgeable!
The satsuma age made me salivate. I definitely want to try that sometime. What a fun day!
We recommend! It is really good!
How fast Japan rose, fell & then rose again is unprecedented, especially for such a small country.
We all are!

Good afternoon from Kansas City. Shizuka, i always look forward to your videos. You do an amazing job and the camera team is superb. I do not understand why you do not dress more traditional, you looked great. Keep up the good work and i look forward to more content.

24:09 minute video. Lets go!
Hope you watched until the end :P
I will love to take this tour for my next travel to Japan. But, Do you need to know Japanese to enjoy this tour?
You do not need to speak Japanese! The restaurant can even invite an English speaking geisha!
Can i book only the geisha and food portion?
Do you not have sauce with the Satsuma-age ?
この動画の最初で、しずかさんが梅干しを食べたときに、私は唾液が出ました（日本人の条件反射ですが、今の若者はそうではないかもしれません）
Foreigner, did you salivate?😁
Shizuka also snapped half the people in the background out of existence.
Ups:P
I don't know...I would feel uncomfortable and self conscious having someone watching me eat. Also feelings of "I'm not worthy" But Odawara looks like a fantastic place to visit
It is indeed a very unique concept! However, geishas are so skillful at creating comfortable environment that it does not feel awkward at all!
OK but you guys look like you could be related or something haha, like you look like siblings!❤
You think so? :D
Yeah like they both have a similar facial structure, assuming he is also half japanese.❤
Is it: tiger kills old woman; old woman throws away pistol; pistol kills tiger?
He has a Triforce symbol on his samurai breastplate 👌🏾
Love to dit con me may 😊
This is awesome, and as for me I am a black man and seeing how people can come together makes my heart palpitate. Let’s love as God loved us the “LGBTQAI+ community” has infiltrated our church..stand the Fu¢k up and fight…..
Try to be more realistic with your feelings so be more interested in the stuff like really be in aw
Loved Odawara! Absolutely fantastic. We got some spectacular footage and more importantly created amazing memories!
