I don't care how low the birth rate becomes, never allow a country to lose that which made it great ๐ค
Omg Poto = Butt in Peruvian slang
At least you are keeping them in your memories via Youtube shorts
This feels like waking into a Mexican restaurant and all the menus are on paper boards, telemundo is playing with three moms working the kitchen
While i'm sure losing restaurants like these is a problem worldwide, if watching JE has shown me one thing, it's that you have a heck of a lot more than we do in the US! And you don't wanna get me going on the fact they have edible convenience store food ๐ yes i'm jealous I admit it!

The Showa era reference caught me off guard
$5.02!? For all that?! What a wonderful deal! ๐คฏ
As a fellow latin-american , i giggled when i heard the name of the restaurant
I wish I were there.
Itโs insane to think a place with lower prices and better food is somehow less competitive
Ngl I see someone in america 'knowing atleast half of these folks don't even wash their hands' touching my food I'd have to walk out. I'm sure standards are way different there compared to here though.
Was that a next Friday reference joke?
The chef looks so chill
Iโd pay three times that amount and be grateful for such a feast. ๐

This is what we need in America, value. That's value right there. I love it.
Is the main reason because the chefs are so old they can't keep cooking๐ข?
Did he just make a Spanish reference?
You ate Boto?
I live in the south of the US. There's a Chinese restaurant I've been going to for about 15 years. They're closing this year and I don't know what to do. I still have so many fond memories of going in there after school and seeing Chinese news on for grandma and the kids doing homework. The owner knows my name, my mom's name, my brother's name, my husband's name. She asks me about them. The owner of the actual building is planning to demolish it and build something else. The current owner's son is hoping to open up in a different location, but our town just keeps getting more expensive for everyone.
Are they disappearing because the older generation that is keeping them alive are no longer capable of running the businesses?
as the people of tsukiji fish market said in that 2016 documentary, a change in the japanese lifestyle will cause generational changes and losses of places like this.
highly recommend watching tsukiji wonderland 2016.
why do Japanese hate black people???
Absolute steal of a deal, great value ๐
In 2026 800 yen is.$5.03 US Dollars
How awesome is that? I'd pick and support a small mom and pop establishment any time!
Enjoy local culture as if you're a resident in the area vs.a standard tourist trap, and you will always have an incredible experience! ๐
I read old school as old school and got really confused like why are you in an old school canteen-
It reminds me of the home cooking food I'd always buy back during college.
๐ฎwow that looks amazing ๐ฎ
My dream. Just hanging out, being a rad Auntie, serving good food to my people.

That broth looks incredible
No way these places are closing down!!๐ฎ๐ข
Bro locked in before that other asamalife dude took his spot ๐ญ
YouTube comments section not really the right place to go into this, but these older restaurants make me think about how hard the work is to make these places happen and my generation and younger not wanting to take up the mantle because of the physical toll.
I think there's really no right answer for the future of places like these except to support their owners until they feel ready to retire. Absolute pillars of their communities.
That same meal would cost at least $25 in the US right now, before being expected to tip another $5 on top of that, likely for half the quality. That's WILD pricing.
Truly amazing quality and value meal.
capitalism destroys everything
This not a buisness.
This is a place of comfort. Of calm. Of tranquility far, far beyond any modern human like you and I could comprehend. And, beyond anything, passion for their craft.
