00:00This video is part two of the Kyoto Travel Guide series showcasing the bamboo forest,

00:04a must-visit coffee shop, and the Nishiki Market. If you missed part one of the Kyoto Travel Guide,

00:10make sure to click this link to watch that video where we visited Fushimi Inari, Ninenzaka Street,

00:15and went to a ramen cooking class. Here is part two of the Kyoto Travel Guide.

00:22We're in a bit of a hurry this morning. We woke up really early to head to the bamboo forest to try

00:26to get there before it's crazy crowded, and the cab's on the way.

00:30See a place that's supposed to be magical, but we've heard that the crowds could ruin it,

00:34so hopefully it's early enough that we can view it without thousands of people around us.

00:39It's currently 645, so I feel like we'll beat most people, you know? Not crazy early,

00:44but clearer than the average Joe would get up. Maybe let's say that.

00:51I'm excited to see the bamboo forest. I'm scared to see the monkeys though.

00:54I got this umbrella so I can find them all.

00:57Waking up early paid off. There's only a few people here at the bamboo forest,

01:01and it is just beautiful walking through here, hearing the birds chirping, and just seeing how

01:06tall these bamboo stalks are. It's incredible. Got there at like 7 15, and it was about perfect,

01:12but we're leaving. It's about 8 a.m. now, and it's already pretty packed, so I feel like a lot of

01:17people are going to be upset that they didn't get here earlier. I, for one, was trying to get my wife

01:21to wake up earlier, so I'm in the winning bracket for today. Okay. We're headed out of the bamboo forest.

01:28We got through it a lot quicker, I think, than we originally thought we would, so we're going to

01:31find a local coffee shop to get some food and a cup of coffee, and on the agenda for today,

01:36we're going to the Muskegee Market, which is this great local market with a bunch of good food,

01:40so that's our plan for lunch, and then we have to hop on a train, and we're headed to Osaka today.

01:45I'm not sure what I was expecting when they said fruit sandwich, but I don't think this was it.

01:59Looks good, though. Very aesthetically pleasing. And I just spilled on my pants.

02:08The aftermath. If you're near the bamboo forest, you have to check out this coffee shop. The coffee

02:12is so good. Their food was delicious, and I believe the now owner said his grandfather opened the shop,

02:17so it's pretty sweet. All right, we're outside of the market. We got here early, so I don't think

02:24all of the places are open just yet. We're going to walk through, watch them set up, and hopefully

02:28scout out some places to eat. I put all the coins down deep. First up is the shrimp tempura for 500 yen.

02:34Oh, that steam. So good. So fresh. Really crunchy. Tempora didn't get soggy. That's a huge shrimp. Oh my gosh.

02:45That shrimp is good, but it's still like 9.45, so I'm on the hunt for some Japanese egg omelet dish.

02:51They are so moist and fluffy, and I got to figure out how to make my eggs that good.

02:55I got this beautiful Japanese omelet freshly prepared this morning. Look how fluffy it is.

03:00It was only 290 yen, and it looks delicious. I'm not too good with chopsticks, though.

03:07I'm going to have to abort the mission and just use the old hands.

03:12It's so good. It's just so light and fluffy. Up next, we got this juicy chicken thigh roll for 700 yen.

03:22The meat is so tender, and it's so juicy, and it's marinated in like a soy sauce kind of broth. It

03:27has like a salty, tender taste. It's so good. The thing that really impressed me about the chicken

03:31thigh roll is it actually wasn't super fatty. It was pretty lean. It was very juicy because it was

03:36dark meat, but it wasn't like huge pieces of fat or anything like that. Mmm, good.

03:44Gonna eat some eel nigiri at 10 a.m. Coming out fresh, so a couple minutes.

03:52I'm excited. Got this eel nigiri for 400 yen. It looks so good. Oh, that's fine. Fresh and juicy,

04:01and it's glazed perfectly. Could we just do one yuba? Okay, up next, we have this yuba, or tofu skin,

04:07for 350 yen. Gear them in there. I really want to try these port gyoza, but I don't know when they're

04:15gonna open, and we're headed that way, so I don't know how much longer we can stall in this area of

04:20the market. Just poke your head under there and ask them. I got this yuzu and honey drink for 350 yen.

04:30It's so good. For those of you that don't know, yuzu is a Japanese lemon. This one. This is the best

04:35of the game. They were out of the full octopus, so we got this octopus arm for 400 yen. It looks interesting.

04:45A little slimy at first, but it's pretty good. Still chewing. It tasted good once you got past the

04:51little suckers things, you know, like the little sticky stuff. You can get a piece of sweet potato.

04:58Moki with red bean and a strawberry. Last but not least is this strawberry mochi for 350 yen.

05:05Oh, we're gonna drink. We're gonna drink. We're gonna drink first.

05:09A lot of food?

05:10Mhmm.

05:15Before we left, we had to stop by the capsule toy shop,

05:18and I got a little Mario show. Let's go.

05:21Okay, this wraps up our time at the Nishiki market and our 48 hours in Kyoto.

05:26So we're gonna go back to the hotel, pack up, and catch our train to Osaka.

05:30We're gonna do another food tour and then go to Universal so we can see Super Nintendo World.

05:35So we'll see you there.

05:36Bye.

05:38Bye.

05:48Bye.
