What creators show here
Plates of fresh tuna and salmon sushi travel along an automated dual-lane conveyor system directly to individual dining booths. The host uses wooden chopsticks to brush soy sauce over fresh nigiri before eating alongside a bowl of steaming hot fish-based miso soup.
The host tours Rembrandt Capsule Hotel in Shinjuku ($36/night), showing the shared lounge area with complimentary drinks, personal storage lockers, and rows of stacked pod beds. He climbs into his capsule pod to demonstrate the sleeping space and amenities.
At Tokyo Sushi Ten in Shinjuku, a master chef slices raw fish, blowtorches fish skin to sear in flavor, and hand-delivers individual nigiri pieces directly onto black slate plates in front of seated counter guests.
Shinjuku is showcased as Tokyo's premier all-rounder neighborhood, featuring vibrant neon lights, towering skyscrapers, and bustling nightlife lanes. It is anchored by Shinjuku Station, one of the busiest railway hubs in the world, offering easy subway connections across the city.
