- There's probably chocolate on my face. (laughs)
Are you zooming in
on the chocolate on my face? - Yeah.
I'll zoom out, I'll zoom out. (Safiya laughing)
(upbeat music)
- Hello, friends, and welcome to another video.
This week, we're gonna be trying
the most viral Japanese desserts we could find.
It's the Instagram versus reality final boss.
Because if these things aren't good,
I will be very sad. (chuckles)
Now, recently, I've noticed a serious renaissance
of viral aesthetic dessert content all over my feeds,
on Instagram, of course, but also TikTok.
And yes,
let's acknowledge YouTube shorts' existence as well,
all over my YouTube shorts tab.
And though I think viral desserts
have always been popular on the internet,
now that virtually every platform
is a short-form video platform, these things are everywhere.
I think it just resonates
with some natural human instinct like,
hey, that's really pretty.
Now, let me put it in my mouth.
And though there are other strong contenders out there,
NYC, Vegas, France, Korea,
it does seem that Japan has emerged
as the king of viral aesthetic dessert content.
From floating mochi sculptures
to jelly flower water droplets,
showers of green noodles, edible crochet pillows,
two-dimensional cakes, and gravity-defying soft serve,
I do want to put them in my mouth.
But I have noticed that a lot of these videos,
however visually mesmerizing, do tend to finish
before they tell us what these things actually taste like.
I mean, it's short-form, it's gotta be short.
But that does leave a lot of questions unanswered,
like what is this made out of?
What is the texture of these green noodles?
And is it possible that something
that looks this cute could also taste good at all?
And cherry on top of the proverbial cake,
since they're all the way across the world,
these questions are even harder to answer.
But when planning our content trip to Japan,
I realized this could be the perfect opportunity
to investigate some of these viral desserts
that have been autoplaying in my mind.
To try them IRL and see if they're actually any good.
My hopes are delusively high.
Also, because there are so many viral Japanese desserts
out there, we did have to narrow down our list a lot.
So, if you wanna see a part two,
let us know in the comments below.
Now, when you're wandering around the streets of Kyoto
looking for your fifth viral dessert of the day,
you're probably gonna want some data
because heaven forbid, something comes between you
and your flour ice cream
that you traveled 7,000 miles to get.
In which case, you might wanna check out the sponsor
of today's video, Saily,
brought to you by the same people who made NordVPN.
Now, some of you guys might know, I'm a big fan of Saily,
which is an eSIM provider
that lets you easily purchase data plans
whenever you travel internationally.
And as we have traveled to a variety
of different places on this channel, I can tell you
that there's really no better feeling
than arriving to a new place,
being able to turn on your phone,
and knowing that you immediately have data.
No longer do you have to wait at the airport
to buy a SIM card
or pay expensive roaming fees from your domestic phone plan.
Saily's got your back
in over 200 destinations around the world.
And new to the party is Saily Ultra,
which is weirdly awesome.
For a monthly fee,
not only do you get access to an unlimited global data plan,
you also get access to NordVPN, NordPass, and NordLocker,
to keep your internet activity
and information safe and secure while traveling.
And you also get real life perks while traveling,
like priority access at check-in and airport security
and access to select airport lounges.
This is actually crazy.
I need to go to the airport right now
and go somewhere to try this out.
So, don't let your viral dessert dreams be memes.
Get an eSIM with Saily.
And you can get $3 off your next Saily data plan,
including Saily Ultra
by using the code safiya3 at checkout
on the Saily app or at saily.com/safiya3.
And with that, let's eat.
And though our quest
is gonna take us all over the country, actually,
our first stop is gonna be in Tokyo
to get some viral matcha noodles
in the Asakusa neighborhood,
which is kinda like a touristy historic district.
Framed by the large Senso-ji temple,
there's an outdoor market,
and lots of street vendors
selling other tasty-looking desserts
that could be upcoming viral sensations nearby.
Now, I've seen a bunch of videos
about these viral matcha noodles.
The dish itself seems to be a kind of ice cream cone,
on top of which, they dispense a waterfall
of stretchy looking green noodles.
And besides raising a few questions, namely, what are they,
they are super eye-catching
and I've always wanted to try them.
Now, the place that sells them is called Chacha Futatsume,
which is a cozy little storefront down a quiet side street.
And though at this point,
there are a few other places that make this dessert,
I think this is the shop
that invented this dish back in 2022.
The noodling process itself is pretty quick.
They have the cones pre-constructed in the back,
and then they come out
to squeeze the noodles live in front of you.
I'm sure they know
this is the money shot that everyone wants to see.
- Whoa. - And then,
they dollop on a little bit of edible gold at the end.
Fancy.
- [Tyler] Dude, it went super fast.
- [Safiya] Yes, I think I got the shot.
- Okay. - Did you?
- [Tyler] I don't know. (Safiya and Tyler laughing)
- We'll do it again.
The cone does look just like the videos in person,
but based on a diagram inside the store,
there does seem to be multiple layers
of other stuff underneath the ice cream and noodles
that we didn't previously know about.
- [Tyler] A lot.
- [Safiya] I might have to eat through the noodles
to get there. - Okay.
- Cheers. Do I just go, ah?
- [Tyler] Go right
for the gold, baby. - Okay.
I guess the only way
to eat a matcha noodle ice cream is one bite at a time.
Now, first impressions, it's not cold. It's very pasty.
These noodles
aren't like "Lady and the Tramp's spaghetti noodles
that you can pull and stretch.
My teeth, when they chomped the noodles,
turned them back into paste.
You can see
there's a block of paste - Oh yeah.
