Watching Sonny eat bugs and normal food helped me recently deal with cancer. During chemotherapy I couldn’t eat and after the surgery I couldn’t eat. Somehow this channel popped up and I’m so glad that it did, because watching someone eat while you can’t was cathartic. Crazy. Anywho, I’m extremely grateful to Sonny for the distraction and entertainment he provided when I needed it most. ❤
@joebx1111 It’s also used for pain management in outpatient settings. My grandma is prescribed fentanyl patches and all she has to do is see her pain management doctor every few months.
this is the beauty of vlogging as we, the audience can learn something new from just watching and ultimately use this just in case we can be able to visit and dine personally...thanks bro.
This is not just a food & travel channel ....This is a cultural documentary that makes me appreciate our planet and I will support this channel till I'm an old woman. 👍👍🥰🥰
Hi, Sonny. I had also seen on RUclips about similar eateries in Japan 🇯🇵 where diners eat alone in a ‘cubicle’. Customers DON’T even see anything nor anything, except when the food arrives from behind a curtain. The server is hidden behind a room and when your food 🍱🍜🍲arrives, the server opens a little hatch and pushes out the food you had ordered . Then they close the hatch and you never see the server nor the cook 🧑🏼🍳.
12:39 holy cow Sunny, that finger monstrosity. The AI generated clips are really detracting from the quality of your videos man. Just don't bother, I'm sure you're having to pay for those, it's not worth it.
@@UOHCUNY it's gimmicky and i've seen other westerners wear those karate headbands and asian conical hats, and it's not out of respect but seemingly more mockery. i don't know about you but i'm asian so yes, i would care when people mock asian cultures. also pissed me off when in his previous video thumbnail about china, he just had to put a clickbaity 'CCP' in there. like, what is the point of that if not to be sensationlist and piggyback off of anti-chinese/CCP propaganda in the west?
He eluded to it and it's widely known that Japanese standards for egg and chicken is much higher. It's crazy how much raw egg is consumed in Japan without people getting sick. It sort of makes me sad how commercialism has hurt food quality in the US.
@@CannedCagny there are cases of Salmonella every year in japan is just fewer than in the USA this is also cultural differences we in the USA dont eat Raw eggs normally like the Japanese, high tier Restaurants would make sure the eggs are fine as well.
out of all of your videos, ive spent years watching following you all over the world, this was the best, great content and you mentioned joe multiple times. awsome.
I love the solo yakiniku places so much, cause most places are designed for groups to dine in. But sometimes i just wanna grill and eat yakiniku alone ya know? Yakiniku Like is another place for this but definitely going to be looking for any Kamimura in my area! And when they serve something in a foil container, just put it as is on the grill. It's meant to be cooked that way!
Location 1 is for a casual weekday when you crave for a lot of meat and are hungry. Location 2 is for special occasions, like anniversaries or birthdays. Or if you are very rich and the menu price doesn’t matter to you.
I LOVE your videos and your energy man - just wanted to clarify a small point at 00:15:24 that Matsuzaka sirloin is from the Matsusaka province of Japan and is therefore, not Kobe beef since Kobe beef must come from Kobe to be certified as such. But it is a really small point that most people would not know too - just thought you'd like to know more about the food you eat~
The food looked delicious. I would go to the first buffet every day and twice on Sunday. Private, fresh and delicious food, and affordable. Thanks for sharing.
Fun fact: Japanese BBQ has its origins in Korean cuisine. You'll see they serve their own versions of kalbi and kimchi, etc. Japanese BBQ started with Korean immigrants moving over to Japan and starting restaurants
However, China began when Fuxi and his wife traveled from Japan to the continent and gave birth to Shennong, and then Shennong's descendants gave birth to the Korean clan. In other words, Japan was the beginning. This is written in classical Chinese in the Chinese classics.

Iberian Pork is both Portuguese and Spanish, Presunto Iberico or what the Portuguese call Pata Negra is from the Iberian pig (Porco Preto) in the Alentejo Region of Portugal thats fed solely on acorns.
Hey there. If you liked the Iberian Pork, you HAVE to try the Jeju Black Pork from South Korea. I was blown away at how good pork can taste. I am still having wet dreams about it from time to time!
Sonny.. you should definitely pay a visit to the north and interior of Portugal ! Although Portugal is widely known for the bacalhau and fish dishes, if you go to those regions I mentioned you'll find amazing and very weird dishes, like old goat, beef intestine, beef stomach and so on.
The trick to intestines and organs like stomach, I recommend sheep stomach btw not cow, is deep cleaning, with vinegar, salt and warm water. Mutliple times. Stuffed with mince and rice with herbs, and grilled. Its so good. Fried too, but then again, what isnt.
FYI every 29th of the month is Niku No Hi which translates to Meat Day since 29 in japanese is pronounced Niju Kyu similar to the Japanese word of Meat which is pronounced Ni Ku. A play on words. So popular to eat Yakiniku on the 29th.
21:02 Sonny..........I'm sure that people have told you this before, but your "peace" sign at the end is also a sign for "up yours" in different cultures. You need to have the "palm-side" of your fingers showing for a peace sign. Hahahahaha! xxooxx Keep up the good works.
13:26 "by way of its tongue meat" didn't help you there now, did it? 😂 Love your content. It reminds me a lot of Anthony Bourdain's show. You certainly get his cadence down to a tee sometimes. Wouldn't surprise me if you got inspired by him. Keep up the good work and for the love of taste, take smaller bites 😋
i think you are supposed to cook the mushrooms in the foil container with the butter at the first location 😬
Yes yes!!! Should have cooked it inside the tin foil!!! 😂😂😂
100%, when I saw those pads of butter with them I was like noooo! 🤣
Yeah and there was little slots running above the grill to cook the chicken..
I thought that’s very common lol
Wrapping mushrooms and onions in foil to throw on the grill/campfire is common in the US too. I was surprised when he just dumped them.
8:00 I think mushrooms and butter were supposed to stay in the little aluminum container 🤣
I was thinking the same thing.
Right
confirmed.
there butter cook with it
Went straight to the comments after I saw that dump

@@Siamkhan-D 😂😂😂
I did the same 😂 watched food shows nonstop. Are you good now?
@ After a radical cystectomy 6 months ago I’m fully recovered! The chemotherapy was a nightmare though. And you?
Bruh the fentanyl and the iPad joke lmao!
Sonny thinks he can handle his high so his inevitable OD will be doubly funny.
The combo is deadly 😂
Hey belle
That fentanyl joke was WILD 🤣💀
Fent is a great drug… in the hospital.
It's used regularly in sedation and pain treatment in hospitals. But yeah Def sonny is funny lol
@@joebx1111 Yes, I know what its original use is.. but he wasn't talking about the medical grade version of it lol.

That Fentanyl joke almost killed me😂...literally. I choked on my nasi goreng

You can just call it fried rice
Im so glad you have a sense of humor not many channels have one anymore , your hilarious.
8:00 jesus lord i was having a heartattack when sonny flip the container hahaha it's supposed to cook inside the container with the butter 🙈
me too xD
Sonny chowing down while his translator sits at the next table with no food.
😂😂😂😂😂
Not in the budget.
Taka praca.
yep kinda sucks, he used to eat with his translators before, then he met his wife and everything just changed.
probably because some videos are sponsored by travel company and the translator was provided by them
Hey Congrats camera guy 🤙 Great video, really enjoy the comparisons. Very helpful 🫶😂
Whoever wrote the description needs a raise, thank you!
My wild guess is it’s AI-written or at least AI-assisted written, no proof just a gut feeling
It's beautiful
I'm pregnant and I LOVE LOVE LOVE watching this man videos especially while I'm eating 😂❤ big ups to you
8:00 I screamed when the mushroom being dumped into the fire, lol
They were supposed to be grilled inside the container, hahaha
It should be done in the container. Hahaha, it is literally tastes burnt coz he dumped it right away haha
Screamed? 😂
fentanyl joke at 15:10 is crazyyy
Yesterday I was watching an episode and he said "if you're doing coke you aren't going to add Hershey's chocolate" 😂
We had to lose a future scholar for this

You go girl!
Amen.
"Bye have a great time" caught me by surprise haha
The solo grill place is a genius idea! Normally I've only seen simple solo dining restaurants. Shout out to Sonny for finding that place 👍
The fact that we get free videos on RUclips by SONNY SIDE is truly a gift; keeping education and knowledge alive. 👏👏🤷
You got that right.
I agree.
Proudly skipping the ads since the beginning of the ads. F U RUclips ads
@mentat1341 any way to use ad blocker on a TV?
"Bye have a great time" is from ending of American dad episodes lol

happy that Sunny show me some restaurants i never saw before! thats great
5:41 , shout out to Shizzys cute ahh 😌

I disagree I think they're hilarious and fit in perfectly to his channel
That was a beef tongue
Sorry, I don't see it. Can you elaborate what's being AI-generated in that specific time frame?
It’s at 12:27
I come here to escape from AI slop.
I like that 30$ is considered a "poor man's buffet" when that's 2 weeks worth of food for me 😂
looks so yummy... just discovered Sonny's channel, its the best on youtube of this type
The editing is hilarious 😂 Great job!
Thank you.
I follow your channel and this was my favourite video for a long long time. The sheer look of delight and wonder in your face at times was amazing
i love it when sonny throws it back 😳
did he have to wear that silly headband there? he's soooooo sensationalists and clickbaity. how desperate can some of these content creators be.
Why do you care? He's had headband since forever. That's his signature
@@UOHCUNY it's gimmicky and i've seen other westerners wear those karate headbands and asian conical hats, and it's not out of respect but seemingly more mockery. i don't know about you but i'm asian so yes, i would care when people mock asian cultures.

Headband isn't asian. Stop trying to find things just to get offended
@@UOHCUNY the style of the headband is. what other culture wears them like that?
you clearly don't like when people call out your BF.
16:11 Using actual footage or even stuff made by artists looks so much better
2:06 "invinigorating"😂
came running to the comments as soon as i heard 🤣
i love your sense of humor and jokes really makes the channel amazing thanks for what you do !!!!
It's obvious how much effort went into this!
Watching him film and enjoy it is delicious, wonderful😊
I love this guy. He is so funny! Love the edits. Thanks for the great videos Sonny
Sonny still the best in his field on RUclips hands down, let’s not forget the team behind the production, you all the best ❤
Best part of this video was when the waitress made the crab gesture with her hands.
Worst part was the Joe Rogan reference.
homie just throwing back raw chicken :D
He eluded to it and it's widely known that Japanese standards for egg and chicken is much higher. It's crazy how much raw egg is consumed in Japan without people getting sick. It sort of makes me sad how commercialism has hurt food quality in the US.
That chicken neck was still pink. Lets hope sonny doesnt get sick
@@CannedCagny large part of it is that the us "wash" the eggs removing the natural film that protects the egg.
@@CannedCagny there are cases of Salmonella every year in japan is just fewer than in the USA this is also cultural differences we in the USA dont eat Raw eggs normally like the Japanese, high tier Restaurants would make sure the eggs are fine as well.
@@CannedCagny I was thinking the same, that he'll probably be fine, given their high standards of food safety.
Your videos are always so well-made and engaging. Keep up the fantastic work!
Such a talented creator, no joke!
I agree bot
soo happy watching this eating at the same time
Solo dinning, every introvert’s dream 😊
out of all of your videos, ive spent years watching following you all over the world, this was the best, great content and you mentioned joe multiple times. awsome.
I do hate that you've started using AI generated images though. They definitely take away from the quality of the video.
This! Absolutely this. It dilutes the authenticity of the channel.
So does your mom 😅
@@brandonlee8368 that made 0 sense
Womp womp
@paytonhenderson6624 so does your mom.😂
15:14 "Just like a mother who doesn't truly love her child, I got my iPad ready to go!" IS A WICKED DISS 😭😭
Nothing better than eating lunch and watching your videos. Gives me apetite! Cheers
I’m finishing a late dinner and watching his video lol
super great video 😍😍❤❤

Putting the cooked meat back on the plates with the raw juice?
He's eaten raw chicken he will survive.
You eat steak basically the same
The poison doesn't effect me, I've tooken small doses overtime making me immune 😂
It’s beef! Not a problem.
No separate plate
Love your channel series 😊
Japan and no Suzuka 😭 Sonny we need to talk
Looks Amazing❤❤
11:43 she is cute 😂❤❤
Looks like she needs to wash her hair but yeah, she’s a babe 😉
Every time I see you post I sigh a sigh of RELIEF . Thank you for quenching my boredom 🙏🏾
Someone discovered AI… stoppit!
What
The food looked delicious 😋😋
Location 1 is for a casual weekday when you crave for a lot of meat and are hungry. Location 2 is for special occasions, like anniversaries or birthdays. Or if you are very rich and the menu price doesn’t matter to you.
"I'm exploding with meat joy at the moment" what a great quote 😂
The best Yakiniku buffet at a cheap price also around 3500 to 4500 yen is Aburiya and you get served by robots. Enjoy Osaka. Where's the beef?
I LOVE your videos and your energy man - just wanted to clarify a small point at 00:15:24 that Matsuzaka sirloin is from the Matsusaka province of Japan and is therefore, not Kobe beef since Kobe beef must come from Kobe to be certified as such.

Right there with you 🤝, she's hot 😂

11:37 lady on the right, What kinds of facial expression is that?

Everything looks so delicious :O also, that fentanyl joke 😂😂🤣🤣

If you delivered your food with other things, that feels like enjoy something 😋
love your video bro, i want to experience things like you
Cool concept, I love that tiny grill!
