Villaray,
La Vois that we love that we love.
In this video, I'll be rating the craziest fast food items in Japan,
including this creme brulee donut from Krispy Cream,
this cheesy volcano pizza from Domino's,
and these spicy garlic chicken nuggets from McDonald's.
But we're starting here at the Starbucks Reserve Roastery,
one of the biggest Starbucks in the entire world.
Oh my god, this place is insane. Oh
He pushed on the door. This place doesn't feel like a Starbucks. It literally looks like Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, but for coffee. We spent a lot of money ordering all the most popular items on the menu
Drink or food first. Yeah, I want to try this one the espresso tonic one. One of the most unique drinks I've ever seen being made by the way. It's got tonic espresso and then that orange on the top. How to drink just like this? You asking me how to drink it? Yeah
Mmm
Only taste this coffee, not this
Mmm
I don't like this
So what would you give it as a rating?
Two?
It looks very good, but very bitter
This is the cinema cappuccino
It's supposed to be reminiscent of all the flavors in a movie theater
It's got buttered popcorn flavor in it
And then it's got caramel popcorn on top
Wow
Disneyland
Holidays, it smells like buttered popcorn.
Very sweet.
Mmm, it's like a melted frappuccino.
It's a little bit sweeter than a regular ice latte.
I like this.
Rating, nine out of 10.
Next up, a raspberry chocolate croissant.
Mmm, good? Good.
What's the rating?
Seven. Seven out of 10.
Yeah. Would you order this again?
Maybe not.
This one here, I think, looks beautiful, but it's very light.
Like, there's not very much weight to it.
Oh, wow.
Very light.
Yeah.
Uh, whoop.
It's like Italy.
Italy.
In Japan, but the right is no good.
4.7 out of 10.
Let's go.
So one cool thing about this area is that it has Burger King, Dominoes, Wendy's, McDonald's,
everything is in one place.
McDonald's, it's crazy.
So let's save McDonald's for last if it's crazy.
Now we're headed to a Japanese subway.
They got glissies here?
What's a gritty?
Glizy, it's a hot dog.
A hot dog?
Oh, same meaning.
Yeah, yeah.
Let's take Gleazy.
Let's take a glossy.
Wait, what is that?
Why, gosh?
Pizza.
Can we have pizza at subway?
One cheese curry pizza?
Can I get one greasyy?
And then one shrimp sandwich.
Oh my God.
What is that?
I think it's pizza.
That's the pizza?
Yeah.
Yo, what the f*** is going on right now?
This is not a pizza.
Part of me doesn't even want to eat the pizza,
but I'm too curious not to try.
But let's start off with the hot dog.
That's actually really good.
I'm going in for another bite.
Wow.
Like a greasy gabbera.
Where did you learn that?
And it's cool.
You learn that in school?
Yeah.
This is an 8.7 out of 10.
This is fantastic.
Let's move on to the shrimp.
Now this actually looks kind of interesting.
The shrimp does not look high quality.
What is the sauce in this?
It's a wasabi soy sauce.
Good.
You like it?
Yeah.
What's the rating?
Six.
Okay.
Well, I unfortunately don't think this is gonna be
as high as that.
The pizza.
Looks good.
No, it doesn't.
All right.
What?
It's like a 9.4.
This has a little of everything.
It's creamy from the guacamole.
It's spicy from that sauce in there.
There's chicken, there's melty cheese.
It's really good.
I really wanted to hate it by Ashi.
Mmm, what's the rating?
That's good.
Better than this, so it's settled.
Let's finish with this cream soda float.
It tastes like cotton candy.
It tastes like childhood.
Oh.
I might give that a 7.7 out of 10.
The only cooler thing would be if this was flavored wasabi.
If there's one thing Japan does right, it's convenience source.
I love 7-11.
They have crazy items in this.
in 7-Eleven Japan. You can literally buy anything from imitation crab to crazy unique snacks like this one,
all the way to giant bags of rice and high-quality sushi. My favorite thing is the onigiri.
It's like eating sushi, but you can just walk around with it. And this one too, sushi roll.
You can also grab some coffee here and pour it over ice. They have the nicest looking ice cream.
It's like emoji. How do you not just live here? The coolest thing about these actually is how you open them.
Can you show us? Sure. The forest is number one pour.
Okay, like this.
Wow.
Like this, this.
No way.
And...
Row it.
No way!
This is perfect.
You never had to touch the rice directly.
Yes.
Next, number one, pull down.
Number two, pull.
Number three.
No.
Just like this.
Way! This is so cool.
And that's it.
That's it.
That's it.
I love Japan.
It's amazing.
That's good.
The seaweed is crispy every time.
You can see inside I have that beautiful,
creamy mayo tuna. This is a 10 out of 10. So for this one they sell this pre-packaged ice.
Open it up. You got it by a year? Yeah. Now poor. And look at that. Up to the perfect level. And just like that, you have this amazing fresh, cheap ice latte.
Mmm, this is good. Set them out of the tem. The next place is the most famous place to get donuts and pastries in all of Japan.
Mr. Donut. Yes. We call miso. Wow. All this stuff looks so good.
Thank you very much.
First up we got this old-fashioned donut.
I'll take the small piece, you take the big one.
Yeah?
Wow, I like this piece.
The flavor of the donut is really good.
Basic, yes.
Good, but it's basic.
And what will you rate it?
Um, six out of ten.
This is a pondering.
Mochi donut.
So this should be different than a normal donut, really soft and chewy.
Mmm, whoa.
So they use tapioca flour to make this instead of regular flour.
It's like eating mochi.
I give this a 9.2 out of it.
I can't believe they have a churro at this donut place.
It smells a little like artificial strawberry, but it smells like strawberry.
Really buttery.
It tastes like strawberry yogurt, right?
Right.
What would you give this?
Five.
Before we keep going, let's have the final donut.
It's this little chocolate black heart.
And on the inside, it's got a bunch more chocolate and some sort of hazelnut looks like cream in the middle with some chocolate bar.
Really unique.
It looks a little weird.
What are you doing?
Please don't keep back me.
Wow, guys.
Wow, guys, this is my favorite one.
It tastes a little bit like Nutella in the middle.
This has a rotsall flavor.
A lot of flavor.
Maybe an 8.6 out of 10.
One thing I love about this Burger King location here,
is that because we're in Japan,
just look at the other restaurants that are surrounding it right here.
American Smoky Chicken?
You can't even get this in America.
You can't?
No.
What's your favorite thing?
I also got to try these.
She helped us pick out a few more dishes,
and we walked away with a massive tray.
food. Should we start with the Great White? Yes. This looks so good. Wow. This is amazing. I love it. It's really smoky. It's got a lot of
mayonnaise and cheese. This is maybe a 9.6. Next one. Ooh. Coming in hot with maybe the best looking
hot dog I've ever seen in my life. Oh, good. Who's this better? Subways or Burger King?
This one is better. What's the rating out of 10? Eight. Next up we got the chili cheese
fries. The chili looks really good.
Oh my god, this is good. Burger King is my favorite meal of the day so far by actually.
Me too. This is very very close to a 10-food. I'm gonna say this is a 9.73. Next up,
something I'm extremely excited to try these nuggets that also apparently are supposed to have
some cheese inside. This crispy, but taste is a little weird. Yeah, it's weird. I
don't know how to feel about this one. It's like a nacho cheese chicken nugget. It doesn't
taste bad but I probably wouldn't order it again. What's the rating? Three. To finish we have
these American wings. The flavor is fantastic. Wow you just ate that so fast. This is good.
I'm the glizzy gobbler. You're the wing warrior. Okay, I am 8.65. Great job,
bird praying. KFC. Yeah. What is this? Online order. All right, yes. And you pick it up in the
window? Right. Wow. Filet burger drowning in cheese. What the hell? That's the funniest name I've
ever seen for a fast food item. Our first thing here is this shrimp pie, but the coolest thing to
me is look what they did with this part of tartar sauce here. Do they always do this by Ashi?
Yes, it's not special. These things look crazy. I don't know what they are, but they are
extremely, extremely flaky and crispy. A little bit of tartar sauce. It's definitely
shrimpy. You can see the inside is sort of pink. I'm guessing they use artificial color. It's really
crispy, but it's not my favorite. I would say 5.3 out of 10. Now we have cheese pie.
Very very flaky. Oh, that does not look good inside. It's not melting. It kind of looks like a cheese it
Yeah, it kind of tastes like a cheese it
Mm-hmm. Why about a tam? I think this is the burger that is supposedly
drowning in cheese. I don't even know what that's supposed to mean is that cheese I hope so
It's cheese, but the flavor is really weak. Let's finish things off here with the chicken. Look at this. This is not crispy really really
soft. Yeah, you're right. It's like soggy.
Hmm. The flavor is really good. Yes. But you're right.
There's no crunch. But this is good, right? Yeah.
Alright, let's go. I want to get the McDonald's soon. After the KFC, I've got a bit of a sweet tooth again.
Okay. More donuts. I know which one I want to try.
This one. No.
This one. Yes. I mean, look at that color on there.
And crispy. I want to get the...
Oh my god. This is not good. This is really really really.
really good. The actual custard is inside the donut. This taste is not special.
Mmm, this is special. 9.5. I did some research online about dominoes here. This is my first time.
First time? Yeah. Ever? Yeah. Could we do one cheese volcano? Yeah, that looks so cool, doesn't it?
Before we try our cheese volcano pizza, I figured we'd try a rice bowl because we're in Japan.
This right here will hopefully give us a nice cheese bowl. Let's see. Oh, looks good.
Wow. Good.
It's like Chipotle.
Chapore?
You never heard of Chipotle?
No.
I will say the rice is a little sticky, but I still like the creativity of this, so I'm going to give it a 6.4.
Now it's time.
Yeah.
Ready?
Let's do it.
Yeah.
Oh.
Wow.
Oh, that is not good.
Binappole.
I don't like it.
Oh, wait.
The only problem is you can't pull it off.
Like, it's connected to the volcano.
It's in the bowl.
Oh, get some cheese.
Oh.
You don't like it? You like it? I like it, but I know the taste is not the pizza
It's too much cheese, yes, but I like it. It's 5.5. The final stop. Okay, McDonald's I'm loving it. How are you?
Hi, Nick. Yes, Nick. Oh, how did you know that? I always look at your YouTube you do no way. Thank you so much
You did? Wow, that's amazing I feel like we ordered a lot of items and this is the
only thing that we got. That's it? It's all in here. Small. Let's see. Oh. Oh, shaka shaka chicken. Yeah. You tell us how to do this. I think you have a cheese powder.
Powder open. You pour it in. And time to shaka shaka. Okay. This. You dance. Chaka, shaka. Yes, together. Yes. And finish.
Mmm. Mm. Hmm. It tastes like Dorito chicken. 10 out of 10?
No. No. No.
Not 10.
Eight.
Eight?
Yeah.
Okay, next one.
We got our first burger.
Look at the pattern on the bottom bun here.
I've never seen anything like that.
This one is the Godzilla burger and it looks really good.
I don't like that.
Ready.
It tastes like a bacon, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich with sausage.
Not very good.
No good, yeah.
Maybe like a two and a half out of ten.
I agree.
I love the name of this one.
Samarama.
That's a really nice looking burger.
And it's got the slit right through the middle.
like a samurai cut it.
Oh, it's good.
I like this one.
Yeah?
Yeah.
It's kind of Japanese taste.
Yeah.
I love it.
So maybe high rating.
Eight?
Let's finish with this spicy garlic chicken McNuggets.
Whoa, that does not look like what I thought it would look like.
It's got a lot of black pepper on it.
There's specs everywhere on this thing.
What does this say?
Cheer up.
So if you're ever sad, you can come and get these?
Wait, I want to make sure.
Uh.
Are you using goo?
Google Translate for your own language?
It's kind of slang.
Give yourself up.
It's like, no, no, no, no.
It's like good luck.
Spicy, let's do.
Before we end the video, I have one more idea.
Mmm, okay.
All day long, we passed these Japanese claw machines,
so I wanted to give one a try.
I'm very good at this.
After more than 20 failed attempts,
just when it seemed like it might be impossible,
we want a giant stuffed animal.
