Okay, I think this one will arrive by train, right? Why don't you like me, chef? Why don't you send the little train to me? Here it comes, here it comes. Will it be for us? No, uh, something's coming, something's coming. Uh, uh, uh, uh. Train. Oh, we're going with the baby calamari one. It looks pretty horrible, I won't deny it. It looks pretty disgusting. Welcome, welcome to another edition of Luisillo el gordillo. We find ourselves once again in Japan, and in this video, we're going to try very cheap sushi, economical sushi, full meals from $5 to $1. I don't want you to be commenting, "Oh, Luisito, didn't you go try the real sushi, the good sushi, the gourmet sushi?" Because that's not what this thing is about. We want to try everyday, accessible sushi, what Japanese people usually eat in their daily lives. In this country, sushi is like, for example, tacos in Mexico, arepas in Colombia and Venezuela, ceviche in beautiful Peru. There are many varieties, an endless number of recipes, huge chains, independent businesses. And in this video, I want us to try a little bit of everything, especially focusing on the concept of Kiten Sushi, which is the famous conveyor belt sushi. A few years ago, we made a very interesting, very funny video, which was the conveyor belt sushi challenge, because suddenly recipes come out that are not at all appetizing to our side of the world, but here they eat them. So yes, we're going to visit a few places. Normally I would say, "Let's go for it." But we are in Japan itself, so I will say ikimas. We entered a place called Oedo Sushi, which is very cool, honestly. It feels very authentic. This is a local business. Unlike other mass chain businesses that we will see in this video. In this place, you see the sushi masters working, preparing it fresh before our eyes. And I love this Kiten Sushi concept, it's very convenient. I see that, uh, it depends, like in all of this concept, it depends on the color. How does this work? You look at the color of the plate, you see the menu, and here it tells you, for example, the blue ones. These cost approximately 190 yen, which is like a dollar and a bit. Then there are the green ones that cost 240, the red ones 280, light blue 340, purple 380, and then the black one is 480. That's the top. Okay. That's the strawberry. Super accessible, super accessible. If you order the drink separately here, personally, look, a little green one is just coming out. These ones here, you grab them here, dig in. Uf! Look at how delicious this is, man. Here, you serve yourself, right? Here you have the ginger, so you grab it yourself, you serve yourself your soy sauce, okay? That's how these work. It comes here. By the way, the soy sauce here is not like what we are used to from our side of the world, which is called Ponsup, which Ponsups is with lemon and stuff. Here it's soy sauce, just like that, and it's salty. And you grab the wasabi. That's super cool. Check it out, the wasabi is just passing by right now. So, you have to be quick to get a spoonful. So, while it passes, you have to be very alert. And check it out, you grab it and at the speed it passes, you scoop it up, dig in, there it is. You have to be fast. And well, I'll tell you, what's really cool about these types of places is that the matcha is free. You have your little cup here, okay? So, you grab this, like a salt shaker, it's matcha powder, you grab it here, cha, you serve yourself, and in these little taps here, which you always have, you can get hot water. And I'm telling you, this is included, honestly, it's super cool. Cheers, let's try our free matcha. And it's very hot, very hot, but delicious. And well, now you grab your own chopsticks. Okay, here you have them. We have our nigiri here. Of course, it already is. There it is. We mix it here with ginger. Dig in. We dip it lightly and it goes in. And it was here more. It's just so delicious. Honestly. It's eaten very deliciously, very fresh. And interesting fact, while many prefer to eat nigiris with chopsticks for cleanliness and such, so as not to touch them, eating them with your hand is completely acceptable. When you go to a sushi place and don't know how to use chopsticks, use your hand, okay? Let no one tell you otherwise, it's fine, no problem. And in theory, like this, you put the fish first like this. But I do like to dip, honestly, the rice, uh, I don't see any problem with it, and it's brutal, really, brutal. In these types of establishments, they will always give you these wipes called oshi, which are wet wipes for before or after. You clean your hands. Look, these must be some of the most expensive ones, because these must be like toro, maguro, but yes, if you don't grab the expensive ones, you can really fill yourself up for less than $, without exaggerating. Honestly, super cool, super delicious, I love it. And you feel this local vibe. Every time someone enters, they shout. It's very nice, honestly. And much respect to the sushi masters here who do it very, but really very well. From the cheap menu of 190 yen, the blue plate ones. Let's try this one here called Namashirau. It's basically raw baby sardine. It's really crazy. Look at its eyes and everything. And this is one of the cheapest, huh? This is the one for a few bucks. Okay. Enjoy. Honestly, it's not bad at all. It looks weird, but it's very delicious. And also among the very cheap ones is this one here, which is flame-seared sardine. Just look at it. Uf! Let's see how it is. Oh, it's super good too. No, man, I just noticed that behind here they have a sushi clock. I loved it. Once I took a sushi clock from here for one of the restaurants we have in Mexico, and honestly, it was a hit. People take pictures of it, it's very cool. And you know what, let's treat ourselves. Let's see, this one doesn't fall into the cheap sushi category, this one costs 860 yen. We're deviating a bit from the extremely cheap sushi theme, but go ahead, enjoy. And ta-da, the wasabi. Many people don't like it, honestly. I love it as long as it's in moderation. What happens with wasabi is that it's like the spicy food they eat, but beyond making your tongue or throat burn, as happens with chili or other condiments, wasabi burns here like, it burns you. And I honestly love it. Uh, same with ginger just by itself, just like that. Honestly, I've developed a taste for it. So, just a little bit in moderation, but it's how you enjoy it, honestly. It's brutal. It's brutal. Well, honestly, if we're going to give scores, I'll say waiting time, none. I mean, really, despite it being a Sunday at lunchtime, there's space. 10 out of 10. Sushi quality 10 out of 10, prices everything. This place is really good. Five. Luisillo el gordillos out of five. That's going to be the score for this place. To pay in these types of establishments, it's like anywhere else. You simply ask for the bill, a guy comes, counts by the little colors you took, he marks it all here for you, and then you go pay. And this is a golden tip. Okay. It's a golden tip in all Japanese establishments, especially in places like these, when you're about to leave, when you've eaten, you say gochi sama sada de, which literally means the meal was honorable and hurried. It's like a very polite way to say it. Ah, you stand up. And everyone answers you, honestly, it's super cool. It's super cool. I loved all the staff, super friendly, delicious, super cheap. The place is called Oedo Key in the Bueno area, and it's really good, huh? It's really very good. If you happen to be in the area. Highly recommended, huh? Top top. Applause. Let's go to the next one. We've now come to visit Cura Sushi, one of the massive sushi chains in Japan. They have over 500 establishments. It's really super popular, and it's a very interesting concept where you serve yourself, okay? You do everything yourself. From the moment you arrive to ask for a table, it's all done with a little screen. So you arrive, you say how many people you are, if you have children, if you want to sit at the counter or at a table, and it tells you your waiting time, which at peak times can be very long, really, hours of waiting. Right now, we came to a branch that is in Ginza, which is a very touristy area. This is on the seventh floor of Uniqlo. Getting here is quite an odyssey. And honestly, we were pros, okay? We came in advance, got a number, it was a two-hour wait. Honestly, we went to do other things, we went for a walk and such. And it is a very cool concept. Okay. It's understandable why it's so successful. Check it out, I'll show you. Basically, here is the counter with the dishes going by, just like we saw in the previous establishment. And above, they have this belt on which what you order à la carte arrives. And what has made this concept super popular is that with every plate you take, you put it here, you'll see how it works in a moment, and you participate in a gachapon game, and gachapon are these little ball games that have a little figure inside. Which, look, that's exactly what this is. So, you put your plates in, and for every five plates, you have a chance to play. Honestly, it's very cool, and I understand why it's so touristy. So, look, desserts are passing by right now, they're passing little by little, they tell you the prices, look, there's a little jelly, or a pancake, etc. And then come the recipes. So, it says, "This one here is 150 yen." Look. So, if you want it, basically what you do is press, chun, and you take it. Okay. This one interested me. 150 yen, honestly, brutal, super cool. Then another recipe comes, right? This one here too, 150 yen. And then it passes by, for example, all the wasabi, which is not like before, but these are little packets, okay? It's less adrenaline. You grab your wasabi. Other condiments pass by. This is a little chili called Shichimi. And look, since it's touristy, here they do have Ponsu. This is Ponsu, soy sauce with lemon. And to order à la carte, look, you have this tablet. So, here they ask you, do you want to play gachapon? Well, honestly, yes, I do. And here it tells you everything specific in case the ones you like haven't passed. For example, I like one here that they make with salmon and avocado. Look at this one. Salmon with avocado and cheese, right? Which is honestly a marvel. We're going to order about four because honestly, we're hungry, and they're delicious. And here you grab all your things, all your condiments and utensils from literally inside the table. I mean, you open this little lid, and here you have your ginger, here you have your different types of soy sauce. You also have your matcha here, of course, because this here is the tap for hot water. Well, just above. Oh, look at this. Look how it arrives, huh? It's pretty cool. So, look, I'm telling you, you interact very little with people, really, everything is with robots. So, this is what we ordered à la carte. Okay. These four. Thank you very much, robot. You grab it, and it must have some sensor. Look, the sushi is passing by fast. You can grab your neighbor's, right? If you're very fast, chngale. But well, uh-huh, I'm telling you, here too, the matcha is free, okay? Completely free. You serve yourself here. Here you have your hot water. On this other side, you have all the chopsticks, spoons, and even toothpicks to remove food from your teeth and such. You have them there. Honestly, it's super good. And if that weren't enough, honestly, this place is very good, huh? That's why it's so popular and so successful. Ah, look. Our other sushi has arrived. It's here now. I'm going to order a little beer, honestly. Uh, a little beer. I'm going to order a gin and lime. Why not? For the lady, just in case. And the robot will bring it to us shortly. We're going to try it. This is the cheapest sushi there is. Okay. This is the 150 yen one, which I imagine must be tuna, huh? Honestly, I didn't even read what it was. And well, this is what our dollar sushi, or maybe less, looks like. And everything here more. It's very delicious, honestly. It's very good, it feels very delicious, it feels very fresh, but I will say that here, the charm of watching the chef work before your eyes or the sushi master, seeing him prepare things, I don't know, hearing the conversation, even if I don't understand, hearing the buzz, hearing all of that, you don't have that here, but honestly, it's very cool, and you eat very deliciously, and above all, very cheaply. This one says it also costs 150. Well, let's see. No, honestly, I have no idea what this is. Check it out. You press it. Chngale. We grab it. This must be like roe, uh, fish roe, not laziness, so not straw. It looks like this. It doesn't look very appetizing, if I'm being honest, but let's try it. Let's see. Ah, look, the beer is here. Here's our beer, and I like that they bring it with a little plate, look, so that not a single drop spills. And if it spills, you drink it from the little plate like a dog, you want. You drink it there. No, man. How delicious. Cheers. Cheers. Ah, it's foamy. It's delicious. And yes, honestly, these places are super useful when you come as a tourist because you don't have to interact much, you don't have to know any Japanese, all the screens are in English, a robot does everything for you, you eat very deliciously, you eat very cheaply, honestly. Yes, these places are perfect for tourists, huh? But perfect, perfect. Let's see this roe one, let's see how it is. Mmm, thank you, robot, for the camerawoman, please, she's getting dehydrated. Thank you very much. No, no. Ah, the roe one is delicious, huh? Very, very delicious. Let's try this one that's coming just for the video. Honestly, I hate this one. It's also one of the 150 yen ones, one of the cheapest. It's egg, but sweet egg. Honestly, I hate it. I really can't stand it. It's terrible. But for the video, we'll try it. And yes, exactly. It's rice with egg, it goes in, and it's here more. It's really weird, honestly. I mean, it's egg with sugar. I don't like them, honestly, but if you do, fine, I respect that. If you like egg, go for it, it's fine for you. I'll eat these now, but I want to show you this one that honestly is one of my recommendations. Great for when you come as a tourist, I mean, if you don't like everything they sell and such. It's avocado, salmon, and cheese. I mean, there's no way to go wrong with this. I mean, it's delicious, yes or yes. Mmm. This is my favorite, honestly. Uf! We've eaten a little. So, look, we've already gathered five plates, so I can show you how this works and, well, what's the point of this place. Basically, here we have this slot where you're going to return your plates. So, you're going to put your dirty plates here. Look, there goes a plate. And when you put a plate in, there on the screen, it counts how many you have. Look. So, one. I'm going to put another one in. Two. It counts them for you. So, when you reach five, you participate in a little game. So, let's see. Uh-huh. Three, four, five, and look, when it's five, the game starts, okay? So, here it's a game where, honestly, you don't do anything, okay? You have no participation, it's just a screen there, you just watch, you're just a witness to your victory or your lamentable loss. Okay, so, let's see what's happening. We lost, I mean, what garbage. That was it. I mean, I didn't have to eat five plates of sushi for that tremendous garbage. I mean, they went too far. And it's happened to us, huh? It's happened to us that we come and eat 15 plates and don't win. I think we won once many years ago. So, well, let's keep eating, right? To see if we can win something. Ah, well, let's try some more, right? Let's see, this one looks funny. Let's see, I want this one. Let's see what this is. How strange, look, it's like corn sushi with mayonnaise, I think. I repeat, this is not authentic sushi or anything. Obviously, the sushi lovers are already furious watching this video, right? What do you mean, corn sushi with mayonnaise, brothers, this is a cheap sushi video, okay? Ah, look at this. What are these little toys? Ah, it's an advertisement. It has a cross saying do not touch. It's an advertisement. Certain plates pass by that are purely advertisements, like, "Ah, I want to say this costs that much, do you want this little toy for that much?" And right now, we saw one pass by that was like for a birthday, I mean, it passed some plates with little lights and music like a Christmas tree, and it said order for such and such table. I mean, they don't put it on the fast belt, they put it on the slow one so the whole restaurant knows. It said, going to table 63. So, I imagine there will be a birthday person at 63. Look, Happy Cheesecake. Ah, well, I want this. I want to order my Happy Cheesecake. Look, my birthday is all year round, okay? You're not going to tell me when my birthday is. I have my birthday when I want. And yes, it has its parade throughout the restaurant, and everyone finds out you had a birthday. It's cool, honestly. It's good activation. Ah, well, look, let's try this. Literally rice sushi with corn and mayonnaise. Esquites sushi, basically, that's what it is. Stab. U, it's here, it's here. I already ate five more. Time to play again. Let's see if, let's see if now, right? I mean, think about it, it's like $ per game, right? It's cost-effective. Surely they give you a toy that costs 20 cents or something like that. Five. Let's see, here we go. Come on, let's win now. Come on, give it to them, really. Come on, go, go, go. Come on. There it is. Boom, boom. Win, win. What? What is that? I won. No, nothing, I mean, nothing. It's when you win, I mean, and that's how they get rich. Do you realize? They get rich by selling you the dream that you're going to get a little toy. That's what keeps this business going. I mean, they buy a lot of 10-cent, 20-cent toys and tell people, "Oh, maybe you'll win, and you never win." By the way, the other day on social media, I saw a video of what happens to the plates when you put them in here. The process is very interesting. Here I leave it for you. Obviously, credits to the restaurant and such, it's from their social media, but yes, it goes through a whole process, they wash them, and then they work with them again. In fact, we are at the last table here, and we can see a bit of the kitchen process. Right now, a sushi will pass from the other side. Uh-huh, right there. And right now, one will pass from this side, right. Check it out, look, here it comes. Alright. At full speed, the guy. It's cool. I mean, you're at the last table, so you only get like the leftovers of what nobody wanted anymore, like from that movie, The Hole, remember? So, you're on the 286th floor underground, and right now we saw them put a birthday cake, so maybe it's the one we ordered. Let's go, let's see. I think so, yes, yes, yes, yes. Here it comes, here comes my birthday dessert. Uh, how exciting. Here it comes, look. That's my dessert, huh? Oh, and look, it opened. It opened, I mean, it was programmed to open. Wow, it's for our table, it says. Oh, thank you very much. And yes, look, it's a parade with music, huh? And if you don't grab it, what? Do you miss out on your dessert or what? Uh, thank you. Yes, how cool, man. I loved it. And I loved that I saw when they put it there. I mean, it went all the way around. I mean, the whole restaurant found out. Everyone was envious. Ah, it's super cool. I loved it. This cost, what? 300 yen, something like that, right? Let's see. Yes, 310 yen. Well, like, what? Not bad at all. For a spectacular show. I mean, brother, you're kidding me. Bad Bunny tickets cost like $1,000, man. This thing, a programmed, personalized show, a song for me. Everyone found out about my birthday, please. And look how cool. On the cookie, it says Omé de to, which means congratulations. Ah, how cool. I loved it. It's not even my birthday, and I got excited. Thank you very much, thank you. Come on, here goes my cheesecake. Enjoy. Ah, it's not bad. Look, it even has mango and everything. It's real mango. Ah, it cost $2. I can't be too picky, right? But Ah, no, but it's superb. Wow. And to sell at these prices, how much do they have to sell per day for it to be a sustainable business? No, it's crazy. It's crazy, but it's really delicious, huh? I loved the cookie. Also, everything is top-notch. Uf! Well, we forced ourselves to eat more. We managed to gather five more plates, and well, third time's the charm, right? Honestly, if we don't win this time, we're going to Burger King, huh? No, no, it's too much, it's too much. Third chance, five plates, another game. Go. One, two, three. Ah, we're ready. Four. Come on, let the game begin, let the action begin. Chan, chan, chan. A sushi robot. It's very happy. Uh-huh. There are some viruses there. The robot is like struggling with the viruses. Okay. It's fighting against the viruses. The raw fish virus. And and what is that? Did I win or not? Yes, yes. And then, what do I do now? Oh, there it is. Oh, something never seen before. Ah, how exciting. Look. Okay. It's a real secret what's inside, huh? Look. Let's play this, it cost us, well, not much, like $1, and we ate a lot. I mean, I'm full, really. I'm bursting. Well, let's see how it is. What could it be? What could it be? No memes. What is this? I mean, it's not even a toy. Look, it's garbage. I mean, really, what garbage. Look at this. Look. This has a little pin on it, like so you can put it on your backpack, on your clothes. Ah, I see. It's this anime that Japanese kids love now called Detective Conan Exura Sushi, which is like a collection. So, the girl is like dressed as a sushi. That's all it is. I'll put it on just because we put in a lot of effort. Okay. But it's garbage. Or what is it? I thought it was going to be a nice sushi. Uh, it doesn't even cost 20 cents, huh? I mean, really, not even that. Uh, well, still, quite good, quite good. Once you're done and you grab your little tablet, you press checkout here. Okay. So, uh-huh, checkout. There it is, cha, cha, cha. In total, for everything, it will be 4,260 yen, which is today, what is that? Like $26, something like that. And look, we ate, two of us, and we ate more, honestly. We ordered two alcoholic drinks, we ordered a birthday cake. Honestly, it's great, honestly, it's super great, like $ per person, man. No, it's really, really super good. Checkout. To pay, you come here to the self-checkout area. Okay. So, with your ticket, you scan it here. There it is. Uh-huh. It tells you, well, you owe this much, my friend. There it is. No, I don't have a card. Card. Done. Thank you, intelligent robot. Thank you very much. And well, here there's no one to say gochis o Osama de to, no one shouts back. E honestly, it's a very good experience, huh? A very, very good experience. The place is very cool. And yes, look, here are all the people waiting to get in. Alright. And we were there chatting and ordering birthday cake and everything. But yes, that's what it is. Now, being very honest, okay, Luisillo el gordillo, well, honestly, I don't think so. I mean, yes, it's a very good experience, especially because if you come during the week, you won't have hours of lines, huh? It's worth it, right? Better go to another branch and such, but Cura Sushi itself is worth it. Or not, come on a Sunday and that's it. I mean, come on a Monday at 11 and that's it. I mean, cool. Or just do what we did and come 2 hours early, get a number, go sightseeing around the area, and then come back. You don't have to sit there for two hours, make the most of your time. Honestly, it's very good, brutal. Much love to Cura Sushi, delicious, cheap, fattening, and yes, it's a very cool concept, I love it. Our order has arrived on a high-speed train. Of course. Thank you very much, Mr. Train. Thank you, Mr. Train. That's right. Next place. We've now come to UO Sushi, which is well-known because your order arrives on high-speed trains. A very cool, very cute, very recordable concept, and curiously, from the window of this place, you see real trains passing by. Well, we're right in front of a major station. So, you see little trains bringing your food and through the window, little trains transporting passengers. For many years, this place has been well-known, and they became famous, especially for their extensive 100-yen menu. In fact, it says so on the screen here, they have over 80 varieties that all cost 100 yen, less than $1. And honestly, it's good. The wait here wasn't bad, it was less than 15 minutes, I think it was 14 minutes. It was quite good. And we're going to try from the 100-yen menu and also others, for example. Look at this one here, it's very curious. This one, let's see, this one is not 100 yen, this one costs 800 yen, which is like $6 or so. It's a crab, a soft-shell crab. So, you eat it just like that, whole. And how strange it looks, right? But delicious, no doubt. Uf! It goes in. Uh-huh. You eat it with everything. Generally, eating crab is very difficult, right? Here, nothing, you eat it all, all of it. Now, this type of crab is very tasty, but it has a disturbing background, a disturbing fact. And it is that to be able to catch it with the soft shell, basically what they do is kill the animal just when it's in the process of molting its shell. A disturbing fact indeed, but it results in this soft shell that you can eat the whole crab, from head to toe. From the 100-yen menu, we also ordered this one here, which is flame-seared fish. Look, a dish is coming, but it will arrive below, look. Ah, well, but a little train arrives. That's funny. This is the children's menu, it said that it arrives on a little train and such. Look. Ah, it's not for us, it's for them. I mean, come on, it's super difficult to get the train. I mean, I don't know if you have to do something special to get it from above. It's like luck. But if what you saw was like our seventh dish, and it was ginger, I mean, it wasn't like something special because yes, that's actually not so cool. This place charges for ginger and wasabi. At 20 yen. Let's see, it's very little. What is that, 13 cents of a dollar, something like that? But yes, I don't know. The 20-yen ginger was sent to us in a very, very luxurious little train. And our 800-yen crab was sent to us on a normal plate. So, it doesn't depend on the price, it doesn't depend on how special the dish is, it just depends on whether the chef wants to give you a train or not. Okay. Flame-seared fish. Mm, brutal. I saw that on the 100-yen menu there are other, rarer recipes, because all these are like very normal, like we've already tried them. But look, for example, they have one here on the menu of duck salad, which I don't know, that seems quite curious to me. And there are some they sell here that are with lettuce, look. And they have lettuce wrapping. So, let's order one of those, like a little lettuce one. Let's see if the chef wants to send it to us by train now. What happened, chef? Little train, please, my friend. I don't know, I even ordered the children's menu because I thought, "Ah, surely the children's menu arrives on a train." And no, I mean, they just send you a cardboard train on the lower belt. I mean, well, while we see if the chef takes pity on us and sends us a little train again, let's look at the children's menu. Ah, how funny. It's very cool. Look, it's like a happy meal. It arrives with your little toy and everything, and Oh. Ah, okay. This is for a big eater child, huh? The little train is good here. All of this cost like $3, huh, super good, honestly. With the little toy and all. It's like a puzzle, something like that. Okay, it's good to keep the kid entertained, so they forget that it's not the chef's favorite and the chef didn't send their sushi by train. Ah, look, here it comes. Okay, I think this one will arrive by train. No, it didn't arrive by train. The children's one includes corn with mayonnaise, fish roe, shrimp, salmon, and tuna. Ah, okay. This one is good, I think I'll grab it with my hand, right? Yes, I think it goes like this with my hand. I mean, that's why they wrap it in lettuce, right? Let's see how the 100-yen lettuce taco is. Oniony. U, down, down. That's more onion than fish. Ah, no, no, chef, you went overboard with the onion. Long-time followers, Luciillo el gordillo, you know that we are anti-onion here, and uf, no, the chef went too far, huh? My friend here has gotten it like four times. What are they doing that I'm not doing? I want more trains. Why don't you like me, chef? What do I have to do to earn your love? Why don't you send the little train to me? Here it comes, here it comes. Will it be for us? Yes, yes, yes, yes. No, man. Everyone, everyone gets the train except us. I'm going to steal it, huh? I mean, I'm going to snatch it. You don't know what I've been through trying to film the train. You'll see later. We even went to a town, we were somewhere else and we went to a town for a train place that didn't have trains. You'll see later in the video, but well. Uh-huh. I didn't like this onion sushi at all. It's the first one I say. Nope. And check this out. It's curious. It also cost us 100 yen, but it has four pieces. Look at that. Super saver, huh? Really from the saver menu. And I don't think it really has any fish or meat. I think it's pure like cucumber. Let's see how it is. Enjoy. Yes, it's a cucumber sushi. It tastes a lot like vinegar. If you're vegetarian, vegan. It's fine. This is good. It's delicious. Well, we only have one dish left to arrive. I mean, we've really ordered a lot of things. We have this to eat, we've already eaten more, look. So, I think if the little train doesn't arrive now, I give up. Uh, I think what you have to do is show indifference. I mean, I see that the guy here who got the train like four times, he doesn't even care, and it keeps coming. And to us, who are like this, I think the chef sees us peeking out so desperately. Always showing desperation is bad. Here comes our order, and it arrived from below. And you saw when I ordered ginger, the train arrived. Ah, I'm going to order ginger again. Maybe that's the trick. Come on, send me my little train. Okay, let's try the duck one. We're going to remove all the onion. A thousand apologies, but it's too much. Duck sushi and very cheap, I mean, like less than a dollar. Uh, something's coming, something's coming. Uh, uh, uh, uh. Train. Oh, thank you. Thank you for sending me my little train. And look, it's the ginger, did you see? The one that costs nothing. Thank you, beautiful train. Look, let's thank it. Goodbye, train. How much do you have to order to get the little train? And we ordered crab, we ordered duck, we ordered salmon, we ordered everything, and they send us the train with the ginger. There it is. That's our lucky charm. The ginger. Well. I'm happy. I feel content. I feel content. Okay. Well, look, duck sushi sounds very gourmet. Quack, quack, chuchu. Come on. Ah, it's very strange. It tastes like chicken with a kick, I mean, like a much saltier chicken because of how they cook it and such. But delicious. I really appreciate duck, honestly. I really appreciate duck. He got the train again. Again. What is he doing? What are you doing, brother? And the guy is looking at his phone, I mean, he doesn't care. I feel, you know how? Like when I had my high school crush, and I wrote her love letters, and I made origami figures, and I wrote poems, and then she was kissing in the bathroom with the guy who didn't even look at her. That's how I feel. That train brought back memories, painful memories from the past, huh? And one says, "Yolanda, why don't you like me? Yolanda, why do you like Kevin instead of me?" Yolanda, I gave you everything. What more do you want from me? This train brought back painful memories. Forgive me, but Yolanda, if you're watching this video, you are the train. The train is a metaphor. Very good concept. I love the idea of the little train, I'm fascinated by it, but it's difficult to get the train. So, that would be a negative point for the place. Very cheap, very delicious, very good concept, but to get the little train, it's kind of difficult. So, we'll say that I But still, very delicious, very tasty. Let's go with the next one. And if we're talking about cheap sushi, we absolutely have to try the Japanese convenience store sushi, whether it's at Seven-Eleven, Lawon, Family Mart, etc., etc., they always sell sushi, which curiously isn't as cheap as you might think. I mean, honestly, it costs the same as the places we've visited, huh? But I guess it's faster, more convenient for before the train, who knows. For 250 yen, 50, something like that, I bought this sushi roll. You basically have to assemble this yourself. How does it work? You open it like this, ñuángale. Okay. You take all this out, then you grab the rice and little by little, check this out, it's awesome. Little by little, you roll it up here. Chun, chun, chun, chun, chun. Look at that. Wow, this stays super fresh because if it weren't like this, I mean, if the seaweed didn't come in a separate plastic bag, it would get all moist and ugly, you know? That's why it's like this. They can also give you soy sauce, but honestly, I'd rather buy my own, which is delicious, honestly. It's called Kikoman. It's tasty. Let's put some on there. There it is. Come on, it goes in. And ta-da, delicious, honestly. It's super good. Yes, it tastes very delicious. Let's see, it tastes like refrigerated sushi. It feels cold overall. It's very different when only the fish is cold and the rice is more like freshly prepared. But it's not bad, it's very delicious. For 475 yen, a little over $3. These rolls look substantial, they are tuna with, uh, what they call su, they add cucumber and egg. And all of this, in theory, is done daily. Well, for this, we will need our chopsticks, why not? Let's season it deliciously here. Úale. I like to drench them in soy sauce to form kidney stones. Little by little, grain by grain, building our old age. Why not? Enjoy. Good, huh? Cheap. You can eat at the convenience store, fast, delicious, and well, balanced. Honestly, it's good, it's delicious. Now we are at Kappa Sushi, another big company. There are about 300 branches of this in Japan. It's a very nice concept, very much for kids, it's a very family-friendly thing. From the moment you enter, there are many gachapon machines, claw machines where you can win sushi toys. This is something emblematic of all branches from the moment you enter, a sink. So you put your hand there, soap comes out, you dry it with air, it's cool. Now it's a letdown, a real shame to be this far because we traveled quite a bit, okay? To come to this branch because I had seen online that this was one of the few remaining branches with the train carts of this franchise. I wanted to show you that system of the little train arriving and such, such, such, just like the other one I showed you, the UOB where the little trains arrive and such, exactly like this, but we traveled quite a bit, we were in a city called Takamatsu, we traveled to Kurashiki in Okayama, I mean, it was a trip of more than an hour. I mean, it was a problem because I thought there would be this train system here, but I arrived and they told me no, they had already removed it, that it's only in old branches now. So, whoever is in charge of Kappa Sushi, I will say, why do you remove the trains? What's wrong with you? And yes, exactly. This is like a VIP area because yes, in the box they sell toys and all that. Yes, if this is the VIP, the top, the Japanese sons. Okay. That's what it is. And how it works is the same as in the others. Uh-huh. Here you order this. I see there's a train-shaped dish for kids. Look, let's order this one that says sushi set. Let's see, well, I think it will be good. And look, let's order from this menu here. There are some that look very interesting. Look, for example, let's order this one. And here there are others that, look, are wrapped in cucumber instead of seaweed. So, let's order one of those, like a little lettuce one. Let's see if the chef wants to send it to us by train now. What happened, chef? Little train, please, my friend. I don't know, I even ordered the children's menu because I thought, "Ah, surely the children's menu arrives on a train." And no, I mean, they just send you a cardboard train on the lower belt. I mean, well, while we see if the chef takes pity on us and sends us a little train again, let's look at the children's menu. Ah, how funny. It's very cool. Look, it's like a happy meal. It arrives with your little toy and everything, and Oh. Ah, okay. This is for a big eater child, huh? The little train is good here. All of this cost like $3, huh, super good, honestly. With the little toy and all. It's like a puzzle, something like that. Okay, it's good to keep the kid entertained, so they forget that it's not the chef's favorite and the chef didn't send their sushi by train. Ah, look, here it comes. Okay, I think this one will arrive by train. No, it didn't arrive by train. The children's one includes corn with mayonnaise, fish roe, shrimp, salmon, and tuna. Ah, okay. This one is good, I think I'll grab it with my hand, right? Yes, I think it goes like this with my hand. I mean, that's why they wrap it in lettuce, right? Let's see how the 100-yen lettuce taco is. Oniony. U, down, down. That's more onion than fish. Ah, no, no, chef, you went overboard with the onion. Long-time followers, Luciillo el gordillo, you know that we are anti-onion here, and uf, no, the chef went too far, huh? My friend here has gotten it like four times. What are they doing that I'm not doing? I want more trains. Why don't you like me, chef? What do I have to do to earn your love? Why don't you send the little train to me? Here it comes, here it comes. Will it be for us? Yes, yes, yes, yes. No, man. Everyone, everyone gets the train except us. I'm going to steal it, huh? I mean, I'm going to snatch it. You don't know what I've been through trying to film the train. You'll see later. We even went to a town, we were somewhere else and we went to a town for a train place that didn't have trains.

And here there are others that, look, are wrapped in cucumber instead of seaweed. So, let's order one of those, like a little lettuce one.
ver. I'm curious about this one here, basically the same as the others. Okay. You click here, *tran*. There it is, ready. And well, just like with the others, the little bar arrives here and that's it. Now, what a contrast between what we recorded in Tokyo and here, where it's empty. I mean, truly empty. I'm even whispering because I feel like if I speak normally, I'll make the only elderly couple who came here incredibly uncomfortable. The drink service here is all self-service, meaning you do everything yourself. In fact, you order your little cup here, look, you put it here in drinks. I want the drink bar, which costs less than 300 yen. There it is. And oh, look, the conveyor belt is moving. I think our food is coming. Our food is coming. Is it? Oh, thank you very much, robot, for bringing us our roll. The cup for the drinks, for the drink bar, they bring it to you quickly, right? The robot doesn't bring it to you, they bring the cup, but not the soda. Okay. Let's see, I suppose it's a good system because it's very easy to be a scoundrel and grab a normal cup and go serve yourself Coca-Cola, right? Uh, yes, honestly, yes. And if you want a dessert, a juice, or something, there's a fridge where you grab it and that's it. Yes, that's kind of the concept of these places. Here comes our other sushi at full speed. *Wbale*. Oh, damn, they all arrived. Look at that. Hey, they work very fast here, huh? Wow. I mean, what efficiency. No way, how do they do it? I mean, really, it hasn't even been 5 minutes, right? I mean, it was, let's see. Here comes the little train, the one we ordered just for uh, Okay, well, at least a minimum attempt at a train here. No, it's fine. Okay, it's fine. And look, it includes a little coin so you can play the arcade machines. So, it's cool, right? That's a good menu. You come with your little one, right? With little Justin, little Jniel. So you order his little train, which includes, look, it's amazing. Three pieces of shrimp sushi, tuna, I think, egg, a little piece of meat, some fries with ketchup, even dessert. Look, a little jelly here, the kind kids used to choke on. I thought they didn't sell these anymore because, you know, kids would choke and it includes here, look, a small coin. If you came, well, so you can play with little Joniel, right? Creating memories. And all of this cost, let's see, for example, the kids' meal cost 510 yen, like $3 and some change, right? Superb, honestly. And all these other rolls we ordered cost 160 yen, about a dollar, and these 190. Yes, like a dollar and some change each. Honestly, it's good, it's cool. Well, let's try it, right? We came all this way, to this place, because in the city where we were, there wasn't this branch, this franchise, rather. Come and try it. This one is very interesting. It's basically meat wrapped in fried tofu. Sounds very weird. Come on, it's going in. Mmm. It's delicious. No way, how good. Let's go with the baby calamari one. It looks quite horrible, I won't deny it. It looks quite disgusting, but come on, come on, it's going in. Okay, putting aside the appearance, which is indeed very strange, honestly. The flavor isn't bad. It tastes very sticky, gelatinous. I'm surprised I thought it would be much stronger. This other one said it was like from the sea. Ah, I imagine it will have shrimp, it will have everything. Wrapped in cucumber, that's very curious. Come on. Fresh. It feels fresh. Mmm. It tastes like the sea. It's delicious. Oh, it's a little spicy, huh? Wait. Mmm. When you swallow it, there's something. Mmm. I know what it is. It's garlic. They leave the garlic soaking in spicy sauce. Oh, it's really good. This other one is basically fish roe. This is one of the cheapest. It cost 100 yen, I think, 110, if I'm not mistaken, less than that. I suppose I understand why they like it, but personally, it just gives you a hint of what fish flavor is like. These others are baby shrimp. It's really good. The shrimp even come out crispy because they're so small. Let's go with the kids' menu so as not to make it too long. Well, we've already tried these, but let's see how the meat is. We dip it in the ketchup. Exactly. A meat like a hamburger. And curiously, I've seen how they eat fries here, even popcorn, with chopsticks. Just like that. Very good, very good, very good. Tasty. We'll finish with our little jelly, our dessert. There it is. Mm. Come on. Yes, these are the same from when I was little. I used to eat them. Honestly. Good, good, good. And look at all this plus other things we ordered to eat. Look, 2,400 yen. What is that? Like $ and that's with us ordering many more things. There are two of us. It's cool. It's cool. Before we leave, we're going to play the arcade machine here to see if we win a sushi and use the coin I got in my kids' meal. Come on, let's see, which one do we want? Which one do we want? This one, right? I think this one is easy. What do you think, Burger? Okay, come on, give me my sushi. Come on, come on, come on, come on. Yes, yes, yes. Ah, they always have a trick, don't they? It's always like you won, right? And it drops it. A scam. I accuse you of being a mafia. Well, I don't think anyone has ever traveled such a long distance to come to a franchise sushi place. What a disappointment that they didn't have the little trains. But well, at least we ate well. We'll travel an hour back to the city where we were. Well, there you have it, a bit of cheap and delicious sushi from Japan itself. What did you think? Which one made you crave it? Which recipe did you like the most? I'll read you down here in the comments. Thanks for joining me for another edition of Luisillo el gordillo, your reliable source of fattening food around the planet. We'll see you, as always, you know, in a few days with a new video. Goodbye.
