Come join us for a traditional Japanese breakfast at Ryokan Seiryu in Takayama, Japan where we enjoy a delicious spread of Japanese food items. Normally we don’t eat massive breakfasts but when an enormous spread of delicious Japanese cuisine is spread out in front of us, we’re more than willing to make an exception.
In terms of drinks for breakfast, we enjoyed fresh squeezed orange juice and traditional Japanese green tea served in a lovely decorated pot. In terms of Japanese dishes we had the following items for breakfast:
1) Raw egg served in a bowl
2) Whitebait fish with radish served in a box
3) Pickled fruits including apricots
4) Tofu served with a water chestnut
5) Pickled vegetables
6) Red radish
7) Fish paste
8) Greens
9) White rice
10) Miso Soup
11) Green salad with a mustard and sesame dressing
12) Hida beef
Our Ryokan breakfast was amazing. In fact, it was hands down our best and most complete breakfast we had while traveling in Japan. Some of our favorite breakfast items included the Hida beef, miso soup and tofu served with water chestnut.
If you have an opportunity to try a complete traditional breakfast like this in Japan we highly recommend it. Unlike a normal Japanese breakfast where you have a bit of tofu, fish, rice and miso soup this breakfast featured a spread of food that would be more typical of a large lunch or dinner.

Traditional Japanese Breakfast at a Ryokan in Takayama
Hey guys! We are Samuel and Audrey, a vlogging travel couple from Canada. In this travel channel we share our travel and food vlogs while touring the world. Our most recent trip was to Japan where we spent 2 months traveling around the country and visiting the following destinations: Osaka, Tokyo, Kyoto, Nara, Nikko, Takayama, Yokohama, Odaiba, Shirakawa-gō and Takao.
During our stay, we visited a mixture of big cities and small rural towns, where we enjoyed eating Japanese street food, trying traditional Japanese cuisine, visiting local attractions and staying in unique accommodations (such as capsule hotels and ryokans) that we are now going to share with you on this channel. The combination and contrast of visiting futuristic cities and traditional countryside areas is what makes travel to Japan so fascinating. Ultra modern versus traditional. This is the essence of Japan.
Our trip to Japan was unforgettable and until now it is one of our favorite countries that we have come to know. However, we only feel as though we just scratched the surface on this trip to Japan. If you want to see more videos from Japan in the future, let us know in the comments that places you’d like us to travel to and food experiences you would like to see on this travel channel.
