YOSHIKI’S 1ST RECOMMENDATION

After discussing the price of the wine
H: Who can hold their liquor better? Yoshiki or Gaku-chan?
G: Since I was born, I’ve always had the confidence that I’ll never lose to anyone.
M: In terms of drinking?
G: In terms of drinking.
G: (But) for the first time, I felt “yabai” (this is bad)

Chef puts caviar on plate

H: Muri ya! (Impossible)
Audience laughs
G: Iiya (well), this is really tasty~
M: Yes. Are you really okay? (In response to something Hama-chan said about being drunk)
Y: This is really yabai
[I think they are talking about the wine being too strong and getting drunk]
Starts eating

GACKT’S 1ST RECOMMENDATION

G: I like this a lot.
H: Does he go (to the restaurant) often?
Staff: Yes, he does
Staff: He comes to (our shop) often.
H: There is a certain way of eating this, I heard (from the introductory clip)
G: First
G: First of all, I’ll take a bite
H/M: Hai! (Yes!)
G: and after that I’ll teach you.
Audience laughs
H: Have a bite first (grumbles). Something else was served. This is?
G: That is (drink name)
G: (Eating) xiao long bao while (drinking) this is really delicious.

M: What are these? I have never seen these before
G: That is red vinegar on the right and white vinegar on the left
Staff: xiao long bao is best eaten while it’s still hot
Staff: but please be careful to not break it.
Staff: because there is a lot of ‘juice’ inside.
[Xiao Long Bao is Chinese dumpling. Or more accurately 'small steamed buns' - by gakuto_chan. The outer cover is very soft and delicate and ‘breaks’ easily. The delicious part of the xia long bao is the juice/sauce/soup inside and the main trick lies in not breaking it when you lift it up to your spoon. More information about the food below.]
G: Aa!
Audience laughs
G: What the hell are you doing, really~
Audience laughs
Staff: The most delicious part is the juice.
M: That’s right
M: I broke it (completely and regrettably)
Audience laughs
Staff: The way you hold the chopstick is wrong
M: I held the chopstick the wrong way.
H: What are you trying to do, speaking in katakoto like that? (speak like a baby would)

G: First, you place the xiao long bao on the spoon without breaking it
G: You don’t dip it in, you put the ginger (already dipped with the sauce) on top of it
G: And then you suck the juice.
H: Yoshiki is not listening
Audience laughs
M: He is definitely thinking of something else now.
Audience laughs
Y: I was thinking it was amazing.
Gackt describing the xia long bao
H: Umai!
G: It’s delicious, isn’t it?
G: It’s delicious, isn’t it?
M: I feel like I’m eating gyoza. (Japanese dumpling. Similar to it, except that it’s pan-fried)
M: Ne? (Doesn’t it?)
Audience laughs
Y: What is this?
G: This is shouyu (soy sauce)
M: Why doesn’t anyone say anything…?
Audience laughs
H: How many pieces do you eat (normally)?
G: When I eat
G: If I REALLY eat… probably
Matsumoto coughs
H: You are so noisy
M: I sucked the vinegar too hard.
Audience laughs
G: Around 60 pieces
H: Eh? Really?
Audience gasps
Y: What?
H/G: He can eat 60 pieces if he wants to.
Staff: Yes, there will be stacks of it on top of the table.
M: Amazing.

G: I really love it.
Staff: He can eat a lot of the vegetable ones.
M: I see
M: Because Gakkun (practices) vegetarianism.
G: This is meat by the way.
M: Ah indeed, this is really meat (sheepish)
Audience laughs
M: This is really amazing. I didn’t know there is such a way of eating.
G: It’s delicious, isn’t it?
H/M: Delicious.
Yoshiki choked
M: Are? (Hmm?)
H: Yoshiki!
M: Probably just like me,
M: Sucked in the vinegar too hard…
Audience laughs


YOSHIKI’S 2ND RECOMMENDATION

Talking away about the ingredients. Basically making fun of the chef’s habit of repeating himself.
Chef pours in cream
H: Gaku-chan, do you eat curry?
G: I love curry
G: Only if they use roux (lit. I only eat roux – mixture of fat and flour which is used for thickening or for making sauces)
Serves the bread
H: Yoshiki, you would normally dip this in and eat it like this?
Y: Yes
H: Delicious
G: Delicious!
Y: It’s not spicy, right?
Chef: Aji wa? (The taste?)
Chef: Aji wa?
H: Aji?
Chef: How’s the taste? Delicious?
H: We’ve been saying that it’s delicious since just now.
Audience laughs

Yoshiki's wine
Pass wine bottle to Gackt
H: Gaku-chan
G: Hai?
H: Thanks but that is enough
G: Is it?
Continues pouring
H: Gaku-chan, that’s enough
Audience laughs

Yoshiki’s curry
[It comes with the metal-ish package which contains the curry and a small red packet which is some spicy powder.]
In the background while Matsumoto was pouring curry on rice
G: Hama-san, can you eat spicy food?
H: Yes, I can.
G: Really?
H: Unn. (Yes)
Gackt sprinkles a lot of the spice powder
Audience and Hama-chan laughs
Y: Gackt, that thing is really spicy.
H: That’s enough, Gaku-chan
G: This is the dividing line.
Audience laughs
G: This side is for me.
Points to curry side
G: And this side is for Hama-san.
Eats
G: Tasty
H: Uwaa, kara! (spicy!)
Audience laughs
H: You aho (idiot), putting so much…
H: Uwaa, kara…
G: Kireta? Kireta?
[hmm, hard to explain… To be angry at something. Normally used in that context. In this case, more to like “it’s already your limit?” feel to it… Hmm… ]
M: Why don’t you let him (the chef) try?
M: I think he won't find it spicy at all.
G: This is perfectly all right for me.
G: This is really delicious.


GACKT’S 2ND RECOMMENDATION

H: You picked carbo food?
Audience laughs
G: I haven’t eaten this ramen in 6 years.
G: I love it.
H/M: Where is this from?
G: Kyoto
H: So how? You’ll be eating ramen
G: I’ll eat it.
Audience laughs
H: It’s okay for you to eat it today?
G: Yes
Audience laughs
M: 6 years ago, you still ate carbo food.
G: I did.

Gackt asked the chef to cook it in a certain way (バリ固 barikata). Apparently, it’s not a very common way of cooking it.
H: Is that good?
G: That is delicious
H: Really?
G: It is delicious
H: If everybody said it is delicious…
G: It’s delicious
H: Okay
Audience laughs
Talks about shop/restaurant
H: What is that you put in? Tenkasu? (Bits of fried tempura batter)
H: And red ginger?
G: This is good.
G: It will become too sour if you put the wrong amount though.
Pass bowl to Gackt-san
H: You put this in too?
G: Yes.
M: Takana. (Salted vegetables)
M: And this is… curry powder?
Chef: Yes, it is
H: If you put in too much things, the flavour of the noodle will change.
G: THAT is delicious. (slightly angry)
H: Ah, suimasen. (Ah, sorry)
Audience laughs
Y: Is it all right even if I don’t put anything in?
G: It’s okay if you don’t
Chef: It is better to eat half the portion as it is first (before you put anything in)
M: Indeed.
H: Yoshiki said it right. (lit. He said a good thing)
G: Iya, I’m the expert here! (angry)
Audience laughs
H: Though you call yourself one, you haven’t been there in the past 6 years.
Audience laughs
Hama-san massage Gackt's shoulder
Chef: But the way he (prepared it), makes me feel he is an expert.
G: Desho? (Right?)
Audience laughs

Gackt sprinkles (sesame?) the white thing
H: Oi oi, you put too much!
G: This is the way the experts eat.
H: Really?
G: Yes, really!
G: Ah!
G: Aah!
Audience and Matsumoto laughs
G: That is pepper, right?
G: How can you do that?
Audience laughs
G: Adding pepper in
H: Someone take it away now! (Imitating Gackt)
Audience laughs
M: What should I put in then?
G: Tenkasu! Tenkasu! Tenkasu!
G: I failed so many times
G: when adding in the curry powder
Audience laughs
G: I put in too much

Yoshiki adds chili bits in
Chef: This is the recommended flavouring
G: Desho?
Chef: Hai!
G: Told you I know.
Audience laughs
M: Is that so?
Y: Karai!

Yoshiki picks up meat
Y: What is this actually?
Chef: Sujiniku (Some meat)
Y: May I eat this?
Chef: Douzo (By all means)
M: Of course you may
Audience laughs
Y: The shop is close to Kyoto?
Chef: Yes
Y: Only one?
G: They’ve already told us about it just now. (lit. We’ve heard just now)
G: But there is no soup left when you order 'kaidanma' (Not sure how you spell that but it means ordering the noodle. Only the noodle portion without the soup.)
G: There is not much soup
Chef: If you would like to… If you come to our shop, tell them that you want more soup when you first order and they would give you more.
G: You can do that?
Chef: Yes
G: Then say it earlier!
Audience laughs


YOSHIKI’S 3RD RECOMMENDATION

Yoshiki eats the rose
Y: May I eat the rose?
Staff: Yes
M: Really?
Yoshiki peels flower
Matusmoto and Yoshiki eats
Y: It’s really not something for you to eat after all
Audience laughs
Matsumoto chokes
M: When I’m chewing it,
M: you say, “it’s really not something for you to eat.”
Audience laughs

H: The inner part is cold~
M: You’ve said it twice
M: It can’t be THAT cold
Takes a bite
M: It’s cold inside~
Audience laughs
H: Gaku-chan, how is it?
G: Cold~~
Audience laughs


GACKT’S 3RD RECOMMENDATION

Serves apple sherbet
Y: This is not just an apple, right?
M: Yes, just by looking at it, those watching the show would think that it’s just an apple.
G: It’s sherbet
Staff explains the making process
H: Is there a specific way of eating it?
H: Are?
H: You eat the top?
G: Don’t eat the inside.
Audience laughs
G: No, really
G: The top! The top!
G: Because the most delicious part is the top.
Audience laughs
H: That’s…
G: I’m serious! It’s really tasty.
Y: Nice!
G: It’s nice, isn’t it? Hora? (See?)
Staff: Only the top is not filled with sherbet.
Y: This is apple, isn’t it?
Staff: It’s apple.
M: So the top is just plain apple.
M: So, when you say the top is delicious,
M: it’s really just the apple which is delicious…
Audience laughs
M: Nothing to do with the sherbet being hand-made at all…
Audience laughs
G: This…
G: The tasty part is the skin.
Audience laughs
Y: The skin is still plain apple.
Audience laughs
H: You have been talking the way a poor man would since just now.
Audience laughs
G: No.
G: You leave the inner part behind and eat the outer cover.
G: That is very delicious
Audience laughs
Y: Gackt is probably drunk
Audience laughs
G: It is really good
Y: This is actually a sherbet, right?
Staff: That’s right.
(Can’t catch what she said)
H: You lie again
Audience laughs
G: This is the correct way of eating it
G: Really!
G: Only the sherbet is left at the end.
G: Since you took the trouble of paying 950 yen,
G: you should eat the skin.
Audience laughs
G: That is the kodawari (the way of doing things)
Y: What’s the point of ordering sherbet then?
Audience laughs
G: (Sorry, can’t catch what he said again. Something about him eating only the sherbet.)
M: You can eat that as well right?
sign: the stem of the apple
G: No, you can’t eat that!
Audience laughs
H: If you’ve kept quiet,
H: YOSHIKI might just eat it…
Audience laughs
G: But it will be scary if he gets mad after eating it!
Audience laughs
