Me: “I Spent My Day Off Eating Junk and Feeling Alive”

Hello, this is Hiro, the Japanese Salaryman. Let me do a little bit of promotion! Promo ① I created a Google Map that collects all the spots I’ve visited in my videos. There aren’t many places on it yet, but the more videos I make, the more it will grow. ■ Google Map of spots featured in my videos https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mi... Promo ② To celebrate reaching 10,000 subscribers, I’ve started a channel membership. Honestly, I can’t promise special videos or perks at this point, so it’s basically like a donation. But if you’re okay with that, I’d be really happy if you joined.    / @japanese_sala   Promo ③ I made a Google Form where you can suggest spots you’d like me to visit in future videos. I might use these suggestions as references when deciding where to go! ■ Google Form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FA... I also created a Google Map based on the suggestions submitted through the form. Since I update it manually, it won’t reflect your submissions right away… If you want to check quickly, please refer to the spreadsheet that feeds into the map. ■ Google Map of places you’d like Hiro to visit https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mi... ■ Spreadsheet (source for the map) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/... Another day off, another experiment in staying sane. I’m Hiro—an Osaka salaryman and part-time rain magnet—documenting a lazy, food-driven day that somehow ends in deep Osaka. In this vlog I: 🥢 Make my “lazy udon”: frozen udon (better texture than chilled), tenkasu, shio-kombu, green onion, butter, and a raw egg (yolk/white separated for that golden reveal). 🐞 Drift into summer nostalgia—cicadas, slow air, and the kind of cheap bowl that saves your mood more than any fancy plate. 🍔 Hit my Osaka standby FLY BOY for a bacon cheeseburger + daytime Budweiser (friend Suzuki picks cola). In this moment, the burger is truth. 🏙️ Walk through Namba, Osaka’s vortex of desire and ambition—tourists everywhere, but I’m here for… 🔥 Horumon night at a locals-only spot (Horumon Sakagami): the griddle tilts so the fat runs into a sauce trough (foreshadowing). The staff grills, piles it onto all-you-can-eat bean sprouts, then that fat-kissed sauce comes back—poured over chewy noodles, finished with tenkasu & green onion. Even Cleopatra would be speechless. Work, food, memories—the usual mix of exhaustion and oddly bright hope. If this slice of real Japan hits home, Like, Subscribe, and tell me which part felt the most “Japan” to you: team sweet tamagoyaki or team soy-savory? ■Horumon Sakaue https://share.google/ELmyTvjwf3OtdoRYU ■Contact Information [email protected]
