it's about what to eat when you're
Like at a vacation place. Yeah, right. That's some that's some Kankochi. Okay
What I usually do okay is I
What I used to do several like when I was you know a college student, right?
I was I when I when I when I was getting ready to go on a vacation
I would search online look up what's good, right like recommended restaurants exactly
Yeah, exactly the local stuff right the the one that everybody wants to eat, right? I would
Research it and then take note on it and then I'll go. Yeah, right, but
Recently, you know, like for example if I had to go to Kyoto for work
Mm-hmm or somewhere else for work. I didn't I don't have that much time to like, you know
Prepare for the fun part. Yeah, that's luck. Right exactly. Yeah, of course
03:04
so
That's what happened yesterday night, like I didn't have any I didn't do any research. All right, so I didn't I didn't have any like
particular
Place that I wanted to go. Yeah, so I just walked down the main streets. Okay. Where was that?
Gion
Okay, see Joe see Joe. Yeah, yeah, yeah, she's oh somewhere around there. How are the machi? How are machi exactly?
And I I kept walking and walking and I kept looking at the stores. I yeah
Like so much a place now. I want something like katsuri, right?
Some random random
Ramen place. Yeah, I can eat ramen yesterday. Yeah, right some some take so good place
I don't know if this takes so good place is actually good or not
Like I like it could be some like and some weird random shit place
That's like that might that no one goes to right? I know I don't want to go there right?
I want to go to more authentic. Yeah, like aesthetic kind of place, right?
And I passed by this aesthetic place. Yeah, I
Can't go in here. It's too like she kitty gets she get the guy I can't I'm too nervous
I want to go somewhere like it's more casual. Okay, then I walked for three hours
Three three fucking hours and I still fucking hungry, you know
Not knowing what to eat
I said the pizza

Don't Google map right and then like and then I found this like yeah some pizza shop that I never heard of
Okay, look. Oh, man. This is good. It's not bad. Not bad, right like local one like, you know, this is this is like a
Pizza shop that only exists in Tokyo maybe right? So like sorry. Yeah, Kyoto maybe so like

Ask them to deliver. Yeah, the hotel. Yeah, so I look at the menu and then this like something special
Yeah, like that delish special. Yeah, they look good. Yeah
Um, I called them but I don't know why but Kyoto I
Want to ask you this too. It was Kyoto like really like then power. Do we know? No, no normal
why because
The whole time I was when I was in Kyoto the whole time it was like one bar or zero one or zero really?
06:00
Yeah, it was so slow
No, no, I guess that was quite normal, okay, well for me what happened was it was just it the the signals were really bad
Oh, I called them and I was like
Delivery, they I know only a shiny scale. No more. Yeah, the guy on the phone was like a chotto
No, I miss a
Delivery they only guys tiny no more. Ah, chotto
Cut me off right? I did that twice. Oh, wow, I haven't twice I called them again and then they cut me off again, right?

Man Wow, so what I wanted to ask you is can you relate to like
Not like not being able to decide what to eat like yeah
Outside walking and like each store you go to they're like
There could be a better one. Yeah
Like after like 10 minute walk. Yeah, there's probably something better
Like it's not good enough
You get that do you?
Mean I kind of understand that yeah, especially when you are in kind of a special place
Yeah, and you know days are limited. Yeah, then, you know, the one dinner could be really important
Right you so I can I mean kind of understand that but three hours
That's terrible. Right? That's unbelievable. Yeah. Yeah Wow
Yeah, so the three hour wasn't actually all you know walking along the
Looking for the food place, but rather like I found I found this like
