This man is such a machine. I honestly didn't even think it was possible to run that kind of shop alone

[Jedapoo]

Paolo, can you start asking the shop owners if they have their own Instagram/YouTube/Patreon accounts and leave their links? I think everyone would happily follow them and it would be good for their businesses. ❤

Goto San's motions while he works are the art of efficiency. When somebody is so good like that it is a pleasure to just watch him do basic things. Best of luck Goto San, and thanks Paolo for taking us along to visit.

Your Day in the Life videos always catch my attention. The people running these Ramen shops especially.
They work so hard to make a living and he is opening a new location, which is excellent.

They are so great at what they do!

[degs]

huge respect for the chief to work alone to do all that.. crazyyyy. Organization, cleaning, clients, cooking, money etc etc huge respect

[Nutelko]

Paolo never dissapoints 🤙🤙. Daily life of a Japanese racing driver would be awesome.

[vishs]

need more “behind the counter” and “day in the life” videos... they are like therapy to me.

[anthy]

Your day in the life of videos are probably my favorite videos on YouTube. I have never heard of a fire ramen shop until now. I'm a huge fan of spicy foods as well and now I gotta find one. Your hot sauce is really good. I've ordered 2 of the hot and 1 of the mild.

[kanomee]

Paolo keeps producing HEAT contents 🗣️‼️🔥🔥💯💯

[hyewon]

Bro looks really comfortable around the camera. He got the star quality. He doesn't have much worker but I thought I see one still what a machine. He can probably accomodate foreigners with no problem too because he used to work in Hawaii.

[sirbot]

There is a rawness to this one that I really like. I hope this shop takes off massively.

[seIain]

ive seen a crew of 2-3 workers run a shop of this level during lunch time in Japan, this man does it all by himself, that’s no man that’s a machine

[diningwithderek]

I guess you can say that the ramen looks FIRE!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[SSGSSJKNOLL]

Ooohhh ramen! Definitely going to check it out when I visit!

[jonalddeguzman]

The calmness was amazing. It's like he's just playing some chess!

[joanaraquelbernardo]

lovely! Paolo you should do a day in the life of a Japanese Florist! it would be awesome !
i hope you fam is well 🎉

[ralphsunico]

Drinking Game: Every time Paolo says "fire", you drink a shot of sake.

[BinaryPLUR]

Man, what a master! Working all those stovetops and grills and managing everything is so insane!
All these restaurants owners are so hardworking!

[biologicalmale]

Speaking of fire. How about day in the life of a Japanese fire fighter?

[NicxNic]

Me watching this while making my mediocre ramen 😭
