If I had to choose only one favorite dish (which is a difficult thing to do because everything was so good), I'd have to say the Unagi Eel & Taro Root with Dashi Glaze Sauce! Also the Iron Pot Seasoned Rice with King Salmon. And of course, the Fried Mochi Hot Pot! Like I said, it's hard to choose one favorite dish lol. Btw I got hungry so many times while editing this video 😂 ► VIDEO DESCRIPTION: It’s date night! We enjoy a traditional Japanese 9-course meal, which turns out to be a feast. Our mouths experienced a culinary odyssey filled with all sorts of exciting flavors and textures 😍 We feel blessed to have this new Kaiseki restaurant in Greater Seattle. Thanks to Chef Nori for his creativity and warm smiles! He’s originally from Hokkaido and previously also made dishes at “I Love Sushi on Lake Bellevue.” Can’t wait to see what he makes in the future!

Hi Mina! I just wanna say that you're videos help me a lot. If I want to be relax, motivated, and feel good. I just watch your videos. More videos please😍😍😍

I know Mina is particular about her private life so when she releases videos with her husband I appreciate it much more. Thank you for including us in your married journey! and if in the future you ever need more privacy, please do not at all feel bad or anything like that. We respect the boundaries!

Another amazing video from Mina with additional cartoons and graphic elements that add so dang much to the content. Wow! Thanks Mina!

Also, ive seen a few comments about this in her recent videos. Her husband is not an internet personality, he does not need to entertain us nor owe us anything when he appears in these videos. Please be kind everyone 😊

Wow I used to watch you a lot when I was in my teens. I’m glad I got this on my feed again

Ah! You have always been so fun to eat with, that's why I watch your videos while eating. You have such a beautiful imagery when describing food and you also notice & appreciate details in, on, and surrounding it.

Your recent art pieces are some of my favorites among everything you have made. And oh! I am so excited to see your pottery works.

Ive been watching your travel and food vlog for years and i keep watching itt so so fun :3

My partner and I love watching your videos, especially now since we’re moving to Seattle soon and will be able to try all of your recommendations. So pumped!

I love seeing you both together! You guys are so perfect together. Cheers to many more dates and adventures together!

The bubble font is soooo satisfying

Im glad your alright also your editing skills are better than most KZfaqrs!! Luv ur vids

Japanese food is art. I live in Florida and there’s nothing close to Towa. Maybe one day I’ll get to the PNW

Thanks for sharing 😊 love seeing you both!

Mina yes the food was great but the Japanese pottery was stellar. So imaginative!

i love you videos!!

The Ramune, your supposed to drink it from the pinched side, so that the marble doesn't block the opening

How come no one like ever treat me w/ something like an one course meal…… Starving 2 death 🪦 RIP!!!!

I grew up in Kirkland and the sleepy little town of Redmond had grown up. Great vid, Mina. Hamachi is my fave sashimi, but all those look good.

Let's go mina !!! 😍

Hi I haven’t seen ur videos in such a long time I missed u so much ❤

What a nice date! Looking forward to more Mina and My Mr. as well as Mommy Oh. My first thought at the sushi rice shot was I hope that's all for them or do they have to share with other guests?

I like your nails! Unagi is one of my favourite foods, I bet it was delicious 🤤

Y’all are so cute ❤

Can't wait for your mister's screen name.

Idk if you’ve done date nights on the channel before but this is a fun concept. I might take notes lol

Love your videos. Missing Mommy Oh. She is comfortable on camera. I feel for your Mr since he is uncomfortable on camera. It shows. 😮 Wish you both the best.

Omggg hi minaa❤

stage name: "mr. nice guy" 👍👍

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Early ! ❤️

Umm. Mina, you pushed the Ramune wrong. You're supposed to break out the pusher cap from the white top. Then you use the pusher over the cap pushing down with your palm. You're not supposed to keep the pusher in the white cap. 😅

❤❤🇰🇪

Ok but the Daikon and Cherry Blossom Candleholder? Pinterest Queens found shaking

Oh my word - was the snail still alive?

Hello HI 👋 ☺️ 🤗

Hi Mina... I think it is wonderful you guys do everything together. But you've had many wonderful collabs over the years esp w Mommy Oh and heyitsfei. Even the random ones like the French girl and Chinese guy in Taiwan. Perhaps it's time to get more of those fun collabs back? Im only saying this as an intent for improvement... Chef Nori in his few minutes of exposure is more engaging on camera than all these episodes with your Mister in them. Maybe he can help more behind the camera? I find myself rewatching more old videos from this channel and sweetandtastytv than the current ones because of this. In any case.. wishing you the best in the evolution of the channel.

Aww you two make a beautiful couple.

early

Very small for like time to get a reservation

I like your videos overall but when it comes to this Kaiseki, I'm not really impressed with this establishment. But you've been to Japan, with the falling Yen, I wonder if someone could have gotten more bang for the buck if they were already there or planning to go there.

That’s because that’s not miso soup. Looks like tonjiru 豚汁

Month advance booking japanese restaurant is waste of time. I can see a lot of seats no one seat.

We don’t wanna see a date night we want to see your mum 😶 she won’t be around forever make more videos with her

Yummy

Time to play red light green light, homegirl. Pick your favorite restaurant in your favorite city. Hope it's not too busy 👍
