Is made from Mia Zaki vegetables beet and potato wow so flavorful tastes so so fresh and natural I love the flavor of the potatoes so sweet all right now the beef is getting cooked wow cook so fast wow look at the fat oozing out look at

Miyazaki by the way they run their own butcheries it comes from the source that’s why it’s so delicious pure it’s really like an experience you can only have at Miaki because elsewhere you’re couldn’t get as fresh as you’re getting it here sadly next is our last meat the sir Lo

Wow this is the fattiest among all this is the ultimate Wu experience well because we started from the lean and to the most fatty and the fat is just so sweet it’s unbelievable like you never want to SW it you want to have this sensation ongoing never want to end it

Look at the egg look at the cutor I asked the uh chefo s if he adds any like you know soy sauce to make it this color but no it’s so dark right it’s so like bright orangey yellow let’s try this cheers so complex it got acidity bit

This it’s so I think it’s a red wine sweetness savoriness and what’s unique is that they use Mia Zaki beef here just look at how how tender this is It’s really ridiculous definitely one of the best beef stews I’ve ever had they also known for their Hamburg so tender and dense I

Can feel it’s still a meat juice test the beef sauce flowing out cannot believe how juicy this hamburger is wow so good so I came here because um the chef Chef he actually did a collab event with fatal which is a famous Japanese restaurant in Singapore

Amazing Chef if you love Hamburg if you love almost through definitely give it a Shot all right next we are drinking Shu which is a very popular alcohol in Miyazaki this tour at yanagita Shu Brewery includes a tour of the brewery teaches you how to drink Shu and actually get to taste of Shu this Brewery opened in 1902 so it has over 120 years of history and

He is the fifth generation he’s the most passionate person ever about Shu and right now he’s teaching me how to drink like how to drink it at the perfect condition Cheers and what’s cool about this tour is that you get to taste like six different types of Shu he will teach you like what’s the best way to enjoy and of course have some food bearings this was such a fun Shu Master Class delicious Shu um many of these one like

International Awards it’s around 3,700 Yen per packs uh you can just book online easily and even if you have like no prior knowledge he will teach you like how to pair how to drink deliciously amazing Tour all right we are finally trying a dish I love so much

Not really know among foreigners it does look a bit unique but oh my gosh it’s one of my favorite dishes in Miyazaki and in Japan so I can’t wait to introduce it to you guys but along the way let me show you two things you cannot miss firstly a micho iki micho

Iki is a roadside station located all around Japan it’s where you can rest eat and find local groceries and souvenirs I love visiting roadside station and this one it’s called niku it’s a relatively new M noi and niku means meat in Japanese so they specialize in meat

Let’s check it out I found a monster cabbage bigger than my face and it’s only 200 yen there’s even a showu bar secondly terasa it’s a hotel but they also have restaurant supermarket and we’re staying here tonight we got one of the most amazing rooms I can’t wait to show it to

You after our Dinner all right so this dish is called M Yaki and it is my favorite dish born at Miyazaki and a lot of the chicken are uh the Kong Chicken you know free roaming chicken so it got a really nice texture very flavorful by the way this restaurant is called tooa I heard it’s

Very nice W so you can see it’s half W right but don’t worry it’s completely edible and the aroma is just so intense super strong Aroma of the charcoal and it’s because uh you saw how the master cooked he purposely uh makes the charcoal fly over chicken adding this

Great color the black charcoal color and the aroma is also infused in the chicken How do you define a good Um so chicken actually got a chew and this is this two I really like because the more you bite the more Umami come out I know a lot of people Define good chicken equal like very tender and moist but this one it has a nice chew but it’s

Not like tough at all super flavorful perfect for beer sh Che and even rice so master tanasan has a very long experience cooking uh this momoyaki he’s very careful on the how much to cook the meat how he cooks it like it’s almost on fire you know the chicken it’s like w

100 if you love W this like the ultimate level the flavoring is very simple it’s like mainly salt pepper and and garlic and then it’s just you know charcoal ultimate charcoal ultimate Aroma it’s simple but it’s very very addictive and there’s also another flavor this one is the Miso

Flavor I think some people might even like that more just so flavorful the Miso got a nice Umami got a nice kick okay we also got chicken tataki it might scare some of you they cook the surface but the inside is actually raw and we’re going to dip it in this

Sauce chewy and cleaner cleaner tasting they so flavorful again the Umami keep some coming out because they use such a high quality type of chicken and it’s so underrated like I feel like of course the Japanese know about it a lot come to M aaki for this but among the foreigners

Like they just don’t know about it but it’s one of the best chicken Kine you’ll ever have and if you want the best M Yaki you have to come here to M Zaki mind-blowingly delicious after dinner at makono area I recommend you to check out this beautiful bar called um they provide a

Shu cocktails like this is like almost like a ice cream got some cream maple syrup and Shu which is brewed by yakita brewberry which we already visited wow it’s so good so refreshing amazing Aroma of the Shu wow this is really like magic piece of art and this is our room at terasa

So we booked the standard room but we actually got an upgrade this is their one of their sweet room and check it out so right in front of the entrance we have this beautiful garden these are real plants real trees and this is like the centerpiece and surrounding the

Garden we have the bathtub shower sink living room area so it’s really like walking outside your garden because of you know the different textures of the floor and here this is one of my my favorite areas it’s a chill out area so we have a LP here and on the left we

Have the sink again the garden and oh man this is so amazing so we have a huge bath stub here and what’s so unique is that again you have the view of the garden it’s like outdoor on SC check this out it’s bath salt made by myself

So at the reception there’s actually a space where you can create your own bath salt and over here we have the bedroom so the bedroom is also very beautifully designed got a nice Woody feel to it just one con there’s no TV but it’s no big problem and you know what’s crazy

How spacious our balcony is check it out this is insane man wow so we have a little area to chill with your friends and over here it’s Heaven again one of the best and craziest Hotel I’ve staying at it’s much more affordable compared to Tokyo and even Singapore so if you’re

Staying at this area definitely check it out Today is our last full day in M Zaki and we are starting out with Wow check this out so we have like separate pools for separate Seafood for example this one these are E ebi Local la ERS from Miyazaki we also got some different clams here oh yes got oysters

As well so what’s gool you can actually choose your lober and they will prepare it as uh Sashimi boil you can also grow it yourself and I do remember Mark we’s coming here too so I’m kind of like unconsciously following his first Steps oh here it is thank you wow still moving this set comes with a barbecue blob too still alive look at the meat kind of twitching Super Fresh and this is for barbecue look at the color of the iners beautiful that’s going to be so buttery and delicious all

Right I think we have to start with the sashimi and this guy is still alive and I don’t want to hurt myself the tentacles might stab my eyes because I’m sure he wants to take revenge on us so some parts are actually uh boiled wow look at the beauty of this it’s almost

Seethrough looks amazing okay I’ll dip it a bit in the soy sauce not too much serious it’s really one of the most prump chewy so delicate too then the sweetness the richness of the flesh hits your taste bud it’s really unbelievable just look at how beautiful slightly pink

The fleshes these are not Farm by the way these are wild lobsters so the set comes with the Sashimi platter and salad and even the grilled lobster oh my God it’s so scary it’s going to move suddenly so we have our Grill here it’s going to go right over the grill so the

Staff recommends rare so I don’t want to overcook it but wow look at the no it’s still moving all right I think it’s ready wow look at the inner wow comes out so eily so I want to dip it a bit here go so buttery did they put butter I

Wouldn’t be surprised if they did because that’s so buttery you guys have to come here to eat this amazingly fresh so sweet and Punchy you know the texture oh this is absolutely amazing can’t believe I’m having this such a luxury we also got the grill clam set some

Oysters scallops la la clams like the grow clams are Ready the so juicy so fresh and to finish off our meal we got the fresh lobster soup in Japan nothing really goes to waste so the head we just saw they just made a meel soup with this so the lobster Aroma the flavor should be infused into the

Soup yeah wow so sweet so flavorful all right we’ve been eating way too much um let’s do a lesser known activity I’m very excited about this one this is where it gets really interesting so there’s actually basement level one and here you get to enjoy watching the fishes
