NOTE: In saying "Best Sushi in Japan", I'm not saying this particular restaurant is the best sushi in Japan, but that the sushi journey, from Tsukiji fish auction, to the middle man who the best sushi chefs in the world get their tuna from (where we visited), to the omakase style of eating sushi - it's the entire process that's the best in the world of sushi.
We started off by going to the Tsukiji Fish Market tuna auction, that takes place early in the morning. The famous fish market is the biggest tuna auction in the world, and the best tuna that you get just about anywhere in the world for top end sushi restaurants comes through Tsukiji Market. We met up with Sushi Master Hiro Sato, who brought us around the market and took us to the Tuna King (Yamaguki), who is known for buying tuna and reselling on the best tuna to the best of the best of sushi restaurants in Tokyo.
It was fascinating to have an opportunity to visit Tsukiji Market for the fish auction, and to see the tuna being sliced in front of your eyes.
Sushi Arai (鮨 あらい) - For dinner, we had reservations a t one of the best restaurants in Tokyo for sushi, a restaurant called Sushi Arai. Our Best of Tokyo food tour had the entire 8 seater restaurant to ourselves, and it was pure joy to watch the chefs as they assembled each mini plate of food. Then it was time for sushi, and Chef Arai is a master, he literally just flies with his hands, gathering the fish in one hand and the ball of rice in the other, combining each bite with wasabi and molding them together. This was one of the best sushi experiences I’ve ever had in my life, and the quality, balance, and perfection of the sushi, is next level.
Price - About 34,000 JPY ($300) per person
It was an amazing day of learning about the best sushi in Japan, both from the Tsukiji Market auction side, and the distribution of the tuna, all the way to eating at one of the top luxury sushi restaurants in Tokyo.
Thank you to The Hungry Tourist for inviting me on The Best of Tokyo Food Tour.
I didn’t personally pay for the food in this video.

Step 1: chew Step 2: close eyes/roll eyes Step 3: lean to the right Step 4: ohhhh
LOL
he consistantly lean to the right
Yea its getting boring now
the exaggeration is real
Hahahaha master
Mark doesn't order water, he orders H2 Oh
jacko89d probably the best comment on KZhead. S oh underrated 😉
😂💀
jacko89d oh 😂😂😂
dont know why but this one got me
😭🤣
This is why I love Japanese cuisine. It almost feel like perfection is everything. From the tools, to the fish, to the composition of each individual bite. The skill is INSANE
Try telling that to the many Chinese Vietnamese and Korean people that open up Japanese restaurant. Like it's no problem. Sorry I had to say that.
@@markyamaguchi9571 the difference between a high end Japanese restaurant and some other place is very noticeable. I agree with Nathan, it's super perfected and everything is done carefully and respectfully. It's awesome
@@dinty7265 Its overpriced to hell. The only difference between cheap and expensive sushi is the "years of training" the chefs have to go through. Anyone could learn this in 2 months and sell it at half the price.
@@joshuakim3734 yeah it’s expensive, but there are some good spots you can find. I agree that 20 yrs of training and stuff is pretty extreme
@nathandaniel the French have amazing culinary food preparation as well.., it’s not just 🇯🇵 it’s all over the 🌏
It's amazing seeing the love they put in the preparation of the sushi, and his reaction every time he eats it let us know he loves it
Purpose message to thy mother kill any animal . The no cruise way.
Rolls eyes and then he goes “ooohhh...ooohhh”
every.single.time^^
Canal davivi
He having endless organism...fucked by sushi
does he need to look at the ceiling neck spasms? deep throat sushi
😂😂😂😂
How many times can you be shocked by food? Mark Weins: yes
Well it is his job, and he loves it. Everyday is like heaven to him. But that's alot of raw food for me. My throat would have swollen trying to eat that
Hahaha🤣🤣
umm unless you live in about 2 places in the USA? New Orleans and New York? zero...food is love, why compromise?
Mark weins: oh...! This is the greatest question in my entire life !!
As many times as it take to get subscribers so you can make more money…
Your genuine excitement and respect for every part of the sushi making process kinda makes me want to cry, I loved this video (also made me hungry).
this sushi 🍣 bar in japan is a high class ,I loved it ..But there are also a lot of options when you come here in japan ,like conveyers,restaurants and many more and they’re are cheap compare to sushi bar but the quality is still good clean and fresh..😍
*eats the sushi* "Oooh....Ooooohh" *Closes eyes* *opens them even wider than before* *compliment*
Jack Durkan lol
Appreciation.. Idatakematsu..
Drink water oooh...oooh ho ho!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I cant even look at him.
i
Anyone who thinks Ginko Nuts are good has lost all credibility to me. Still I enjoy his enjoyment... =)
Santa is that u?
I have a love for sushi and it makes me SOO happy that others have a passion above and beyond mine. God I miss Japan. Thanks for another great video Mark!
Did you live there?
I live through Mark. I can't eat gluten and many foods scare me because as time goes on, my body attacks me more and more as allergies jump on the band wagon. So I live through Mark's fearless and unbridled joy of food. 🥰 Thank you Mark.
I scrolled down to see if others were thinking that he says "oh" a lot...nevermind xD
This comment section is legit the best thing on KZhead Lol I prefer it more than the video.
This comment section is so liggin
Khalil Martin same
Me too
that was just a amazing experience! thank you for making videos man !
The chef who showed you around the fish market was so humble and nice.. what a gentleman!
During the dinner: Ooohhh ooohhh... When he gets the bill: AAAHHHH!!!!!
Lmao
Gay
Wasnt he invited?
XCO :-) :-) :-) I LOVE YOU'' YOU MAKE ME LAUGH SO MUCH
honestly he can afford it and more xDD
Takes a bite of the table *ohhhhhhh oOoOhhh*
Ha ha ha ha
fck,my stomach still shaking
LMAO
Ahahahah ahahaha
Licks the floor ohhhhh
More power to you Mark...! This espisode brings Japan's culture right in front of you. Thanks for sharing your experience, amazing indeed.
I'm Japanese, but I've never eaten sushi in this price range since I was born. I'm not sure if I can eat it in the future. Under such circumstances, I am very happy to be able to introduce you in this video. Thank you very much!
Have you ever gotten sick from eating the raw fish?
@@aubreyhaught8001 I'm japanese too. I have ate sushi for 22years, do not get an upset stomach. In Japan, sushi restaurant is safe.
@@aubreyhaught8001 I am Thai and like eating raw seafood. I don’t get any sick from eating raw seafood at all. The taste is better than the cooked one for my opinion. When you eat raw seafood you get the sweet taste from its meat but once they get cooked the sweetness reducing.
@@aubreyhaught8001 never ! I think in Japan the safety inspection is so rigorous.
No one: Mark Wiens: Oh
Haihada i laugh so much on how he does that😂😂
Haihada the most underrated comment of the year I’m pissing myself
His T-shirt should be printed as " i tarvel for 'Oh'!" xD
😆😆
More like hoh
😂😂
Fck!!! I wanted to comment that "oh" and I saw your comment right after my thought!!! He s destroying the video mood!!
🤣🤣
The fun part is catching them, and taking a sliver of it when you get it bled out and take a taste literally 10mins after landing one. Absolutely delicious!!, the salt water on it.. YUM!
You genuinely enjoying food makes me happy. I’ve been a subscriber for a long time and have always enjoyed watching your videos! Especially the ones that you’ve done in Mexico! One of these days I hope to meet and have a meal with you
Eat respect eat respect the non abuser to the child or the animal. Eat respect no expression with food not to disturb my meal or my childs every step of the way even in jail oh no dont disturb her or her childs meal
*takes a bite* *rolls eyes*
"Ohhhhwow"
Overreacting Queen
Exactly
*sips water* *rolls eyes* *tilts head sideways* "Ooohh"
Luigi Zerrudo I swear the whole video that annoyed me so much
Here is one thing for sure. He is at a high competition sea food country. On top of that he is sitting at the main master’s sushi shelf table whom prepared it himself. So for those that don’t know. Yes every bite is that good!
No food is that good that you nut every bite and only say oooo
@@gerardgeuss1887 well, if you ain't-a foodie who wants a good food then, maybe, you don't have the rights to complain.
Gerard Geuss Gerard Geuss You’ve never had that experience with a meal? With an entire day of amazing food and drink? Pursue it, cause when it happens you’ll look for it again. Thus begins the journey of serious food lovers.
@@gerardgeuss1887 Why not? I cook food so my family has a good taste in every bite. I'll call you tomorrow and we'll talk ok
@@TruePrick If your family made that stupid happy face after every single bite wouldn't u want to smack them in the head? I would.
Personally just love how completely fearless Mark is with different foods... it's like food is running through his soul.
I’m pregnant so eating raw fish is a no go for now but this video just made me go crazy with envy. Lol I loved the chefs laugh and reaction to you getting dressed as the chef, you both were great. As always thank you fir including the price.
This guy is the happiest person in the world
Always antusiats n smile
Yeah eating endangered species must be great if you're a sicko.
@@riheg did not know tuna was endangered?
@@riheg And are you gonna help donate money to protect endangered species like the tuna?
bit4285 96% of bluefin is gone so you must not want to know
I just love the fact that this guy always has a huge smile on his face, he is friendly to everyone and he is a good hearted person. Keep it up!
Plus, as he's handed the tuna roll with more tuna than rice, I wondered why no one thought of that before. That's brilliant
The no expression way for it is to pay with respect there is that dividend to not get arrested but when you pay or tip even the line and also respect
I'm not a fan of Sushi but I think even I'd try this out. It looks so good
Everyone: fish smells and tastes fishyy Mark : tastes custardyy creamy melt in mouth
I’m satisfied with the way he describes his food. After his iconic reaction (which i love BTW), he then describes the taste, texture, etc.. such a genuine, gentle guy.
Jen Mangalus "ooh"
*When a man takes great pride in his work, it shows. Master Sushi Chef Hiro Sato is a rare breed.*
I could honestly watch a sushi chef slice through the fish for hours, it's a real ASMR experience for me.
After watching this,I decided to eat this sushi one day!😋✌️
This video is 80% tutorial to say "Oohh" perfectly
I'm better than him
Ohh perfectly
Im lookin for ths HAHAHAHAHAHA
Hahaha
😂😂😂😂
Everything he puts in his mouth is like the best thing hes ever tasted
lol
Ikr
if you were not so poor you would also be able to experience this
los1wochos bruh? He ate a prawn and made it like it was worth a lot, BuzzFeed worth it do reactions to the most expensive dish/food that aren't equal to this guys reactions
I know right? lol He needs a new facial expression
This is masterpiece, its so pleasant to watch the chef 💚
Excellent video, Mark. One of the most interesting food tour videos I’ve seen on KZhead. Thanks, Mark!
the "Ohooooo..WOW" is almost for every kind of food he eat
Lol I know right. I wish he had a few other reactions just I could gauge how good something is relative to other items.
Though, his facial expression spoke many reactions
Thats all i heard haha
Cant stand his face
Just come to indonesia, i wanna slap you with our food and say like oh woa oh woa idiot
The video caption should have been Ohhhh ohhhhhh in Japan
bro u made my day hAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHh
NOICE
Lol... The only thing I hate about his videos
@@ayishaaslam8630 me too
Reinis Smilga lmao
Um dos melhores vídeos que assisti nesse canal! PARABÉNS! DEUS CONTINUE OS ABENÇOANDO!
I miss japan 🇯🇵 back soon ,I love ❤️ the Japanese food 🍱
1/4 of the video: about food 3/4: OOOHHH OH OHHH
I blame this man 0% for his reaction to this sushi, it looks HEAVENLY
it takes a year to book sometimes :0 i wish i could eat it. I saw a documentary on that chef. It took like 2 years for his assistant to learn to cook eggs. Conclusion, as a Japanese I say you are absolutely correct.
wørm that's insane!! such respect for the culture and the dedication to excellence in food
kzhead.info/sun/bLhyctmCjqdjmZ8/bejne.html
@Guilherme Arditti That’s just wrong.
@Guilherme Arditti mostly and well he visitis some pretty good places, what do you expect from him
I'm like you, I close my eyes every time I taste sushi. It's a journey within the mouth. (I've been making great sushi! non professionally for the last 28 years or so).
One lucky guy! Omg this looks fun!!
I'm sure his friends call him Marc-oh Polo.
Thomas G should be marc oh pol oh
Doesn't even Make sense
Bruh smh
Owner of Marco Polo
Takes bite Oooooooohhh Closes eyes
Japanese people are always fascinating with their tidiness and cleanliness. I love it
We are huge fans of yours since day one and because of you we decided to try and fulfill out dream of becoming world foodie travelers!! We watch your videos for hours e wry day and take notes and are learning from you. This video quality is definitely one of your best yet!

One of the best episodes ever from mark, I got chills from looking at the action from the fish market in 😢
Him:*Rolls Eyes* Oooh hoohoooh It’s taste like honey with a tad of mustard Chef:Umm...Sir that’s honey mustard
Eating time: "Oh oh oh Billing time: "Ah Ah Ah

Hahahah🤣🤣
Sushi is one of my favorite Japanese food! great video!👍
this has to be this guy's most famous video right. unreal reactions.
If i can get a dollar at every time he says oh
You will be as rich as Lannesters
Lmfao
Dude literally says nothing else at all but OH. get prob $2000 from youtube followers for OH.
stam You would get 23 dollars.
That's what she said.
if i got $5 every time he said ooohhh i would have probably almost $600
145 actually
@@MarvinVM u really count it😂😂
😂
Lol
@@MarvinVM ur extra but damn i was curious
seafood is not only enjoyable to eat but also fun to watch it
when u look at the sushi made its so heaven that even ur watching u want to eat some
Ohhhh ohhhh uhh, ohhhhh
Toby Hammond wkwkwkkwkwkwkwkww
For real 😭😭😭😭
His reaction to when he tries the sushi is the same every time
LOL
Toby Hammond hahahah lol
How was japan? Ohh ohhhh Was it fun Ohohohohoho
The Fact the chef allowed Mark to use his chef’s jacket.. is just an honor all in itself
90% of the comments are people talking about how he says OHHHHHH and I don’t blame them 😂
Swift Regret I had to stop watching his video because of that but KZhead keeps recommending them
😂😅
Why does this man look like he just railed five lines of coke every time he looks into the camera?
Ikr lol
I also wonder that
Probably did
lol
I thought me and my wife were the only ones talking about it. 😂 I definitely think he does coke or something to actually handle all that food the way he does.
I was invited there several years ago by the owner of one of the biggest temples in Tokyo. It was good.
Sushi is my favourite food and I think it always will be! Before I die I want to visit Japan and visit a authentic sushi restaurant like this one here! I am only 20 so I hope I can do it!!
His "oh" count is over 9000!
so what?
Got nothin' on Gohan!
crush the scanner
Hahahahahah🤣
When you have really good food, you only can say oh. Sushi chef in japan they pay attention to every detail. There are no words to express briefly how tasty those are except oh lol
I'm so jealous of you Mark. You are living my dream. Experiencing culture, food, beautiful people everywhere you go. This is living. Love from Florida, where we lack alot of that stuff lol.
Florida only lacks beautiful people. Food and culture are there as well. Nothing wrong with merica, dude.😌
@@NutsInYourMouth idk if i can trust u with that name 💀
You shouldnt be jealous, as long as you have breath in your lungs, you can do what he does. You just have to do it!
The best food tour video i've ever watched, riveting and amazing 🤩. You made me ravenous for sushi 🤤 . Truly the best sushi is in Japan with amazing chefs 👍
take a shot everytime he says ooh ooh.
Only while reading this - the amounts of "oh"'s in the backround would kill me XD

I don’t really wanna have alcohol poisoning today... maybe Friday 👌🏽😂
Bro i woke up 3 days later naked on a boat to australia
His enthusiasm shadows the documentary he’s capturing
Oh my god, this video was soooo appetizing. I hope I'll be able to experience this once in life
My mouth was watering so bad watching this! I could live on sushi and it cannot even compare to the sushi in Japan...I'd never leave! My jaw and face would be so sore from all those same facial expressions! Hahaha so jealous
Go to Thailand and find some good Sushi restaurants. Pay about 30€ for high quality Sushi, directly fresh from the sea. I was in Koh Samui (can't recommend since its too touristic) and I had there the best Sushi of my life in a real traditional Japanese restaurant. I already ate Sushi in Hong Kong (good but overpriced), Philippines (low quality) and high class restaurants in Austria (medium quality, overpriced), nothing came close. If you generally love food go to Thailand to get the best food from all around Asia in the best quality. The best sea food in the world. 10 Euros for several fresh giant oysters directly from the fishing boat. Each about 2 big spoons (soup) of meat!. 10 Euros for most (whole) fish thats good for 2 persons. 12 Euros for a plate of the best fresh sea shrimps. 30 Euros for a huge lobster that feeds two people. 300 Euros for some Sushi :)))? Well, I guess thats the price to eat endangered species like Blue Tuna.
Mark needs his own television series.
Infinite Athletics Indeed.
Infinite Athletics For sure!!!
why? then you would not get much youtube? or if no youtube at all..
What's television?
Nah. He is doing good without tv.
As a longtime fan and subscriber, I can confidently say that this was one of your best shows ever. Outstanding production values, amazing access to exclusive locations, and drool-inducing delicious looking food. This transcended KZhead and is truly fit for syndicated broadcast.
I totally agree, one of his best videos (but honestly, I haven't seen any bad videos from Mark yet).
Huge thank you Robert, thank you for your amazing support over the years!
Totally agree with you RJ Holtz, one of the best videos from Mark. Cinematography has some similarities to zero point zero productions.
totally agree..
Mark Wiens - It's been an absolute pleasure, Mark. Thanks for that response. On this day of Thanksgiving, love, blessings, and gratitude to you, Ying, and Micah. Excited about the great food adventures yet to come!
This was incredible to watch !!!!! Thanks mark 🤤😋😁
You know its good if he *slowly closes eyes* *mouth opens with a little smirk on it* „Ooooh“
Editor: how many oh's do you want to show in the video? Mark: YES
All of them
Watching this dude saying "oh" for 30min spoils everything
i dont like seafood too much but whenever i watch his videos my mouth starts watering
Amazing video! Well done!
Mark, THANK YOU! Watching your video was like taking a trip to Japan and seeing things that I will never experience in my lifetime! AWESOME!

Preciseness to cut with precision without no feeling wrong and without sunglasses when one pays.
I thought this "ohh" bothers only me, but then I opened others comments)
Me too ive been laughing since I noticed it🤣
The chef with Mark is a michelin sushi chef. 🙂 We were able to dine at his sushi restaurant and it all worth it. Its so OISHI. 🙂 It is something to look forward to when visiting Japan.
am i the only one that always notice that everytime, Mark stares at the camera while taking a bite of that delicious heaven of food, im just in my head as i stare at this man saying, man i wanna be in this guy shoes
I'm always amazed by how much food Mark can fit into his mouth at one time. He's got to have one of the biggest mouths ever. Wow!
After eating: "Ohhh" *Eyes close* *Looks up* *Fancy words* No hate I loved the video
Lmao don't forget the head tilt on the right.
ikr lmao
Japanese cuisine - sushi, sashimi and the whole nine yards is an art in itself. Tremendous!

I was glued to the screen every single second. Thank you, Mark!
I was very fortunate when my wife and I visited Tokyo and got a chance to eat sushi at Sukiyabashi Jiro in Ghinza (reservation is required). I must say, it was probably the best sushi I've ever tasted in my entire life. Chef Jiro Ono himself and his son were the ones who served us at the time. We were very lucky. Will definitely come back!
Jeremiah Hendra lucky.....one of my dream is to eat at one of those high end sushi restaurant, if possible 3 michelin one like jiro, saito, or mizutani. Hope can get to one of that someday.
Jeremiah Hendra how much did you pay?
It was close to $300/person.
