Defrost frozen foods so they can be finished faster in a fryer or oven... But you gotta speak his language, and understand that he works best as part of a team.

The food is pretty great in Japan. That's not a lie. It's important to check reviews before you go, though. I personally don't ever go to a place just by random. I will also say that some chain restaurants have much better reputations than others. Ootoya, Yayoiken, the gyudon places (Sukiya/Matsuya/Yoshinoya), Torikizoku, Royal Host, Joyfull, and Tonkatsu Wako are all quite good. You probably should avoid Denny's or Saizeriya because the food is sort of poor quality there (albeit very inexpensive, at least!).
@samtilden4452

@@TheZenomeProject I can certainly relate. I’ve visited Peru a few times and treat the food there the same way. The city is enormous and packed with restaurants, and Chifa being their biggest chain Chinese place, is phenomenal on one side of town, and low quality on the other. And even the fanciest places would have good food, but not amazing food. But the small shops who only hire family members make the BEST food. I wish they had reviews for small stores in Peru, because I’d love to share their names with the world

@@TESkyrimizer I would say it's only slightly out of the way. Kobe is on a shinkansen line, between Osaka and Himeji, both of which are major tourist destinations, so many tourists pass through Kobe. If you wanted to make a short stop here, you could get off at Shin-Kobe station, take a local train to Sannomiya stattion, and this mall is a short walk away. So yeah it's not super-convenient for people just passing through, but it's not a major detour if you're already in the area, and definitely a reasonable goal for someone who's a fan of the channel.

Hey wait a second, what does golden week mean? When I was in high school one year, they did this utterly insanely awesome thing they surprised us with, where when we were in assembly the first day gettint back from christmas break, they were like "ok, this year we're mixing it up, youre not taking normal classes, you make a new schedule for yourself picking from a list of japanese culture themed classes every day for a week" and I did like, kendo and anime/manga appreciation class and japanese flower arranging and other shit and it was fuckin dope. Anyway, the point is they called it golden week lol. So is that some japanese thing or something??
@DemonVermin
Ай бұрын
@@user-zr9hu3tf1yA basic summary is that Japan designates a period from April 29th to May 5th as Golden Week. The holidays include Showa Day (April 29, which celebrates the birthday of Emperor Showa/Hirohito. His reign encompassed many major events that shaped modern Japan and is more of a memorial day rather than a celebration of said emperor), Constitutional Memorial Day (May 3rd to celebrate the enactment of the post WW2 Constitution), Greenery Day (May 4th, which was Emperor Showa’s birthday. As you can tell, the Emperor’s birthday is a holiday during his reign. After a few alterations, they renamed it to Greenery Day, which is kinda like Earth Day, to respect the past Emperor’s love of plants without mentioning his name) and Children’s Day (May 5th, a day to celebrate children, which has a long history and many meanings over centuries). Since these holidays are so close together, it is common for most people to take a week off. Schools also have this week as a holiday as well. Note that Japanese schools are year round with smaller breaks in between compared to Western schools that usually start in Spetember and end in June with a long Summer Break. So Golden Week ends up being one of the longer holidays.

@@SewardWriterAs a smoker, it's basically an unhealthy coping mechanism that very quickly turns into addiction. You become so used to getting nicotine from cigarettes that you start to actively seek them out because if you don't have your regular dose, you become incredibly irritable and life does not feel so good. We can only hope that smokers don't forget about the inherent risks that come with smoking, though, and choose to stop some day.

I was not able to find that clock anywhere, but I found one that was similar style and quality going for $450 on ebay. I also found a cuckoo style going for $500. Both are alot, I had imagined more based on your comment but you could still be right because given I couldnt find that clock online just means it could be significantly more rare. I did have another question, when you compare My Neighbor Totoro to Disney, do you mean is popularity or business wise? I would be surprised I know so little about a company the size of Disney, when it owns global brands like ABC, ESPN, Star Wars, Marvel, Pixar...well you get it.
