Hokkaido is an absolute SEAFOOD PARADISE. Today I am taking you to Otaru, just 25 minutes train ride from Sapporo. Here in Otaru you can find the Triangle Fish Market, where you can sample various seafoods. Some you may love, some you may hate! Don’t leave town without checking out the picturesque canal Otaru is known for. The many glass shops are where you can pick up your souvenirs, but I am here to eat!

  1. The wasabi with that kaisendon seemed like it was the cheap/horseradish kind. Is that normal? I remember when I was in Japan it seemed even at mid to kind of expensive sushi places (like the one in this video) that they served horseradish instead of real wasabi. I only remember having real wasabi with soba dishes.
    To sum up: Is the horseradish/imitation wasabi ok for Japanese people when eating sushi that is going for 3000yen and up per bowl?

  2. Thank you for another great video Luke. The kaisendon looks great (I love Uni, and fish roe, would have changed the salmon for tuna however).

    What would be great, is if you indicated in the introduction, when the video was filmed. So that when watching the video, we know about the weather, things blooming, the temperature etc. in that particular time of the year.

  3. Ooo no rock's for your whisky… Small amount of room temp water is your best bet to release the flavour. But scotch is better than Japanese… But we are biased as we are Scottish!

  4. I too am a lover of sushi (haven't tried Uni though…yet!) That first bowl for $21 is a deal when comparing what one can get in other cities. The poke bowl I had today in Canada was 'ok'…not like your experience I'm quite, quite sure 😆😆(and it was $25 lol!). Thanks for another great food vlog!

  5. @Luke lets hope your head is on your shoulder!!! As always your food vlog is on point. Remember things will always come and go.

  6. ~ ⛩ Really enjoy your Channel, but especially your visits to Japan; not SOLELY because I am Japanese. 😉 Have you tried the Sapporo Or Hibiki Whiskeys? 🥃
