  2. i saw couple of this vending machine last month when i'm in Japan but didn't got chance to try , may be next time ๐Ÿ˜„.

  3. Didn't you make a video a few months ago where you were eating some canned slop from vending machines? This video looks infinitely better.

  4. Is it generally okay to use a convinience store microwave for outside food, or did you secure special permission to do so? I wouldnโ€™t want to cause an awkward incident if I tried to do so.

  5. It seems like adding a small microwave area on those machines would be easy enough, so why not have them? American vending machines sure are boring by comparison. The last interesting one I saw (in Chicago Union Station) had fresh organic salads.

  6. 4 years ago I went to Fukuoka and there was a gyoza and takoyaki vending machine near my Airbnb. For 9 days, I bought something from either 1 or both vending machines. ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

  7. I did dine-in at Kitchen ABC and it was delicious! Portions were generous, very cozy feel, and the staff were so friendly

  8. I'm unsure what impresses me more, the amazing offering & quality or how well-maintained they are.
    Out of curiosity, are there no central places that offer currency-based microwaves for these meals so that you don't have to go into a convenience store?

  9. The thing is, you are never in a situation in japan where you cannot eat at a restaurant. Probably only when there are public holidays

  10. We have a Vending machine called Chef in box right here in Singapore ๐Ÿ˜€ You choose what you want to eat and the machine heat it up for you.

  11. I really want all the curry from Minoringo and squid dishes from Nicoichi. They look so tasty ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿฅฐ

    We have those kinds of vending machines, but not too many. Only in big cities.

    P.S: Shizuka-nee's Turtleneck Sweater + Jacket + Sneakers combo is back yet again ๐Ÿค—๐Ÿค—
