Adam Richman Gets a Crash Course in Japanese Fried Food | Gochi Gang
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 дек 2019
- From a delicately battered piece of tempura to a crispy slab of tonkatsu, Japan is a wonderland when it comes to fried food. In this episode of Gochi Gang, Reina sets out to explore the heart of Japanese fried fare-and there's no better companion than former Man v. Food star Adam Richman. Between bites of pork cutlet, Adam and Reina discuss everything from Japanese puns and good-luck rituals to Adam's own routine before heading into food competitions. But before Reina fills up on tonkatsu, she's heading to Secchu Yokota for an unforgettable tempura experience with chef Atsushi Yokota. From the origins of batter frying in Japan, to the lesser-known tradition of eating KFC on Christmas, Reina is about to embark on the ultimate Japanese fried food adventure.

What is your favorite Japanese food? Let us know what the #GochiGang should eat next.
Omakase sushi from Sushi Nakazawa!
Chicken katsu with curry, with yakitori close behind.
Unadon. Absolutely delicious.
Mochi for sure.
This is great but background music is over the top
This dude smiles while he cooks. That’s how you know he truly loves what he does!
Yeah he seemed to really enjoy himself
I notice that as well. He was just so happy to be cooking for someone. He was is such bliss.
I came to the comments section to say the exact same thing!
he has to be a great guy!
And theres only 8 seats at his shop. He wants to do it all himself without getting swamped so he can enjoy it.
“I personally want to eat tempura all the time.”
I’ve never heard truer words. ❤️
I love how her voice and rhythm changes when she speaks Japanese.
It seems that with Japan being so formal, especially in this sort of interaction she had with the chef, there are very predictable things that they are going to say to eachother. For whatever reason in an everyday conversation, you will hear very similar things talked about, in a very familiar manner. I think its rooted around tradition but I'm not very sure. This was one of the big things I noticed when visiting Japan.
Ive been told that I sound a lot nicer when I'm speaking Japanese, even if it's informal. I think it has something to do with honorifics and respect. Like you know when someone is speaking in a ride way because it sounds so much more harsh.
A lot of how words are differentiated is based on pitch. Think about the difference between like present and present, as in a gift and the act of showing something. That shape of the word is important to Japanese and one of the trickier things for people who are learning it as a second language. Using a wider range of pitch helps make it clear what's being said. There's also a massive spectrum as far as formality is concerned, and you can say pretty much anything in a few syllables or a giant fucking paragraph. Also most of the other replies to you I see here range from a little wrong to just plain stupid, so take them with a grain of salt.
She’s so beautiful. I love Asian women
@@Corekidbeenybunny same
Reina is actually such a charismatic host- literally couldn't ask for a better match for this series
She is annoying af
Literally you could ask
@@AttiasBarak agree to disagree :)
@@colh.3779 that's the most mature response I've seen from one of her fans here. I don't mind her but there's definitely some outspoken white knights out there.
@@Balloon410 I think it's important to let people have their opinions! But I definitely see what you mean lol- RUclips comments in general can be filled with toxicity, I'm just trynna stay positive!
*Slap _Tempura_
This bad boi so Crispy
Just checking in to see if they ever picked up Denzel after leaving him last ep
Some say he's still drawing to this day
Nah they said he can’t leave til he’s done with his manga 😂
I love Adam. Really miss Man vs Food
Same here :)
John Barton me tooooo! It made me kind of ill to watch sometimes but in the best way! He’s my favorite!!!
The interaction between the host and the tempura chef was the most Japanese thing I've ever seen
Lots of respectful little bows, so wholesome
So you havent seen the meowscular chef
It's kind of off putting how over the top it is. "uuuuwaaaa, suburashiiiiiiiiiiii". It's like I'm watching an anime aimed at preschoolers. "suuuuuteeeeeki deeeeesuuuuu neeeeeee :OOOOO"
I love how the cook smiles while cooking, eating his food must be a pleasure
Everything about this show is just so adorable!
Sonni de Soto
Yes!!! The kawaii animations just kill me! 😄🥰
My man in the beginning straight up loves what he does for a living. He radiates good vibes. Made me feel happy for him.
Really loving this series. I knew Reina from when she was on SourceFed -- looking forward to when the producers figure out her fear of water and have her diving for tuna :D Seriously though, she's such a charming host and her ability to speak fluent Japanese is a huge plus.
Adam's such a chill guy and was very eloquent with how he described Japanese-style frying; it really emphasizes the subtlety of the technique and making the food taste delicate despite being cooked in grease. Good stuff.
Chef Yokota's such a pleasant fellow and him using his French training to elevate what he described as "common food" is pretty cool.
Seeing him smile when he was rolling around that asparagus in flour was so fucking pure and the best thing I’ve seen all year
guess whenever I go to New York I'm going to Secchu Yokota
Trivial Slope thank god I live in NYC
@@h3c133 jealous
@@h3c133 thank god i live in Kansas on 5 acres of land in a 3 story 5 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom house with double car garage with a pond in my back yard and a lake 2 miles away and a 8 minute commute to work. Living is so cheap with a nice aerospace job, i just overnight food to my house from any where in america or take a lot of vacations with the money i saving here. Hussle is fun in big cities for about 4 days then back to space full of peace and quiet.
@@ikingipapa good for you
big same
Her skills as an interviewer are very good. I played this video because of my love of Adam but but I'm on board now. Get it girl.
OMG, whoever does the animations is amazing. That short explanation of KFC in Japan was great. And that whole conversation with Adam *chef's kiss* I love how much I look forward to the next episode.
Seeing reina speak with the first chef was so refreshing! Their conversation was very positive :)
This man was an absolute legend to me as a kid, I wanted to be a competitive eater- and I grew up in Japan(the food is the absolute best)! I still could be a Competitive Eater, I think 😏
I believe in you. Do ettt
Adam and not Kobayashi?
All I can do is look at the credits and think:
"THE FIRST WE FEAST FANS ARE NOT READY, FOR ASUKA/KANA-CHAN!"
THICCUS MAXIMUS is it coming on a future episode for asuka or is it already there on RUclips to watch? Just curious?
Oh my god I hope they play that cute music she uses in all her videos. Or at least every time she says "delicious" in Japanese it pops up in cartoon characters on screen heh :P
EZ-PZ!!!
Can't quite say how much I enjoy this show. Love Reina and how she interacts with the guests and the overall pleasantness of each of the episodes thus far!
It's great for any chef to hear such high praise from anyone. It's nice to know that their food is appreciated.
The way Chef Yokota smiles to himself as he is cooking-- that made me so happy. He takes so much pride in his work, he's glowing. I love him! Like at 3:17.
Why does the music make me feel like I'm playing a visual novel?
Alombary I’d say it’s like an RPG loading screen🤔
本格的な日本料理ですね。素晴らしい映像とインタビューでした。ありがとうございました😊
Love love love seeing Reina have this series. Please keep it up! I never knew I'd be so interested in Japanese food!
Find someone that looks at you the way Reina looks at Adam at 14:47 😭
MASSIVE FACTS
just that look when she wants to swallow you
if you have the money and the fame most women will look at you like that.. its in their DNA to seek fortune and fame.
May I make a tiny suggestion?
When translating, which I appreciate very much, could you please color the text differently depending on who is speaking?
I had a tiny bit of trouble discerning who was being translated a few times, but otherwise, the video was fantastic!

Have you ever tried to watch a movie/show with subs?
Never watched subbed movies or something?
@@stebanpulido At any opportunity possible.
Admittedly, I do have difficulty when watching foreign films as well, because there is a lot of overlap and subtleties that go over my head.
@Sturgeon WHOA WHOA LMFAO
It's amazing how Reina's entirely inflection changes when she changes languages. So interesting!
I remember seeing something years ago about how your personality can change depending on what language you're speaking, pretty interesting
I'm multilingual and do the same thing. I think that it is appropriate to use a language's accepted vocal range. That's my two cents worth as a nonnative English speaker. When in Rome...
Not really
Glad Reina is in the thumbnail on this one so I don't miss it in my sub box and have to search for it later 😂😂
I have loved Reina since her Sourcefed days and I think she's doing an amazing job with this series.
The way he pronounced “chaud-froid” gave me serious JoJo vibes
Pearl jam
First we Feast is becoming more awesome with Reina and this program...plus its always been awesome. Also whoever made the end credits, music and filter.....👌
This show is too good. Great job guys! Really doing your own thing with your own vision and passion and it REALLY shows. We really needed this series. Thanks :)
I love how Reina can just turn the overly excited japanese expression on and off when she switches languages 😂
truly a master
Love you Reina, loving the series so far! Makes me so hungry, I fall in-love with some of my favorites all over again, and learn about new things to try.
Reina girl, You're doing great!
Proud of you!
I have been a fan of Reina for the better part of a decade. This is the perfect vehicle for her and for exposing the general public to Japanese CUISINE. You could not have chosen a better, more charming, or gratius host. Not to mention that she is so smart & talented.... and poised.... and ever so adorable\lovable! I am committed to every episode! Reina Rules Yo!
Reina's Japanese mode of speaking and English mode are so different beyond the language itself, it's freaky
It's not that unusual tbh. Most people who speak two or three very different languages sound completely different. Languages like japanese or french have a different intonnation, so your voice sounds higher. And esepcially japanese uses a lot of "bridge sounds" like ah, huh, mmm and so on
I speak 4 languages and my voice goes higher or lower depending on the language.
A terrific episode. Reina is so well-informed on the subject and so professional it was really a pleasure to watch and to learn from her. Thanks!
Reina: speaks Japanese
My heart: melts
For three years of my life, I lived right across the street from the best Japanese tempura shop in North Carolina. It was owned by a little old couple with a million grandchildren. They grew many of their own vegetables and probably made no money because of the market. But I ate there five times a week. Maybe more. I lived on vegetable and shrimp tempura. I loved every bite. I will treasure those memories. I hope they're still around and still frying!
As a Japanese Culture addict I just want to thank First with Feast from bringing Gochi Gang to us! Thank you Team. Much love. :)
This is the kind of RUclips videos I just love. It's shows how TV is dying when you get such great production value like this. I honestly forgot I was watching on RUclips. Great work guys, keep it up! Now I want some katsu!
I’m very happy with this series on First We Feast. Cheers!
Reina is so cute. It's great to hear her speak her native language more.
6:06 I love how he said “恐縮です”. It’s a very formal way of saying thank you, almost akin to an old-timey “you’re too kind” in English. Pretty much my favorite word/phrase in Japanese.
These videos always make me so hungry. Love them! Annnddd Reina Scully! She's a treasure!
Shout-out to Reina. I didn't even know she got this gig. 👏👏
Seriously, this is the best thing First We Feast has put out since Hot Ones. Reina is a fantastic host!
Looove this show! Raina & all the producers are killing it!
This entire series is such a fascinating look into Japanese cuisine. I love the refined, yet simple manner in which their meals are prepared. Currently living in Texas but hope to visit one day. Thanks First We Feast.
I need a million episodes in this series. I've been a fan of Sourcefed and Hot Ones from their respective beginnings and I have enjoyed every second of Gochi Gang. Reina is the best. This show has done an amazing job so far showing the different styles and ingredients in Japanese cooking, with some fantastic guests as well. I want more episodes and I hope you sign for a second season of this.
I really loved the interview of the first chef being completely in Japanese. More of this please.
This show is so well made. Hats off to First We Feast for producing another great show.
this was an excellent episode, a pleasure to watch.
This series is so wholesome I love it
Tempura Master treats the humble asparagus spear with equal respect and passion as he does with prestigious scallop. It speaks to the cultural attention of doing the absolute best possible work regardless of the job at hand. So deeply impressive.
I am enjoying this series so much ... I'm learning so much about Japanese cuisine and can't wait to try some new dishes!
I really appreciate the quality of these videos you guys are putting out. It's so much better and more meaningful than anything Food Network or Travel Channel.
Loved this episode so much, omg
Love the Gochi Gang!!! It’s my new RUclips obsession and I’m so sad there aren’t 17 seasons of it to binge - but so looking forward to everything coming!!! 🥰
Literally one of the best food videos I have ever seen. Thank you for the content. Keep up the amazing work. 🙏
Japan makes every food look look so healthy. Even fried food
I'd like to say "that's a prejudice" .... but it it's just true^^
Been over there twice now and pretty much everything looks like it was made just seconds ago. Even the snacks at those famous Kombini (convenience stores) are a league for themselves.
Three food alone justifies a trip to Japan ^^
Love that this is up during my lunch break.
I love seeing Reina getting her props. She is an excellent host and makes me love the Japanese culture even more. I'd actually like it if in a video she would comment on some of the repeated phrasings that are used in the culture. The Japanese language is dope!
This was such a delight. I'm so happy whenever I see Reina pop up in anything.
Love the host, she is so engaging and sweet! And everyone is so polite and happy - brings joy to my heart :)
So delightful! Loved seeing how happy chef Atsushi Yokota is while he cooks :)
Adam: Why do the japanese have such a profound culture when it comes to food?
Reina: Yes.
I feel like of Adam Richman and Sal Vulcano entered a room together the whole building would explode out of likability
Where is this Sal Volcano? When is it going to explode?
Woogie Harrelson Ngl I almost wooshed
Gochi Gang is amazing Reina! That chef is amazing he's so kind and always smiling!
Fantastic Video and its great to see you once again Adam. (A True Legend!)
The itadakimasu explanation was fantastic. So much passion over there.
This is awesome! I sooo love this show and concept. I appreciate and love Japanese food and I'm learning at the same time!! Keep it coming!
I love this channel and the people and guests on it tend to be adorable.
Chef was so passionate and looked genuinely happy cooking. Love that!
Reina is such a lovely person, it's always a joy to watch her 😁
Reina Scully is an amazing hostess. She is so funny and enthusiastic, full of historical info, and possibly a living anime women. I love every episode she has hosted. More please. Thank You. :)
I am eating right now and I am still getting more hungry watching this.
awesome show. good job everyone who is involved with this
The first segment was so calming and sweet. it gives me the warm and fuzzies
Holy crap. If I ever got a thank you from Reina, I would just melt. She somehow thanks with so much emotion. It moved me.
I love this show, Reina looks like she's totally in her element (even though she's talked about how eating on camera poses a whole new set of challenges :3 ), the show is great! please never stop making it, the food looks incredible! :D
I love being able to test my Japanese with this series! Super fun, great idea, arigatougozaimasu Reina-sensei!
Can I just inject this entire series into my veins now!? I love this new series!
What a cool dude the amount of care/personal touch with the tempura guy's shop. Wish i was anywhere near that. Thank you for sharing!
I love this series so so much
Reina I don't know if you will see this but I have been following you since the SF days and I just wanted to let you know you are amazing. Keep dong the things you do!
One thing I love about the Japanese culture is just the amount of respect and kindness they give to one another, just warms your heart!
1st segment, I love how the chef has a look of pure enjoyment on his face as he prepares the tempura, yet he is so humble.
Reina really seems to enjoy conversing in Japanese...whether it's with a Japanese chef or Adam Richman. The words and the body language are really interesting...and fun to hear and see. Reina is such an enthusiastic host...thank you!
The best episode yet!
Really enjoying this series guys. Reina is an excellent host. Please keep it up.
This was cool. Definitely watch again
Gosh, I love this series.
this show is such a treat 🖤
Tempura is sooo delicious , its awesome! And Reina is such a great host. This show is awesome.
I'd love to see an "easy to make at home" episode or at least "home made Japanese food." Maybe get Binging With Babish to guest star.
kgesme21 Ivan Orkin would be great too!
@@nom6758 Totally. I'll watch like 3 yt video, then head to the kitchen. Havingthe real Japanese ingredients from my local Asian market helps, but isn't essential for someone that just wants to cook and have fun. I prefer spice, so it's Japanese/Koreans fusions most of the time.
@@nom6758 No joke, katsu is even easier.
Reina Scully and Adam Richman in one video. The best things are the ones you didn’t know you needed.
