Staying at a hotel-Dinner at Nobu restaurant vlog with my mom🇯🇵
Hi, guys, it's me, Ruri. Today, my mother and I came to a hotel to celebrate my first 1 million viewed video. I decided to book a hotel and a fancy Japanese dinner to thank my mom for supporting me.
Okay, so here we have our bathroom, toilet, and shower, and yeah, this is our room. I think it looks amazing! This is what our room looks like.
- Work time -
Okay, so I got back from the pool from the swimming pool of the hotel. I have a meeting in eight minutes, and my hair is just like so wet, and I think it's kind of inappropriate to show up to meetings with wet hair. Let's dry it!
Okay, so I think my hair is kind of dry right now, not totally, but I'm gonna change my clothes because I was currently like wearing my swimsuit, so like my t-shirt got wet, and I think it looks awful. So let's change that.
Ah, I'm feeling awesome! I'm feeling awesome! And also my mother and I today booked a very fancy Japanese dinner, so after my meeting, I'll get ready for that as well.
Okay, so my meeting has ended. Now I'm about to get ready for the fancy dinner that we booked with my mom. I think I'm gonna wear makeup because I wanna look fancy for a fancy dinner, you know what I mean? So we're gonna do that.
I don't know if you guys are interested in my makeup looks because when I uploaded my makeup look, nobody watched it, so maybe nobody's interested in my makeups. But I'll show it anyway because I'm a good girl.
I've been wanting to go for a vacation almost for two years now, but I was never able to do that because I wasn't able to afford it. But now, because of you guys, now I'm able to afford this vacation. I'm paying for this vacation, but the problem is I could only afford for like two people, like my mom and myself. So my brother and dad are not joining this time, but if I can afford more in the future, then, of course, I'll invite them. But you know, moms are the priority always!
So I'll do my makeup and come back. If you're interested in my makeup, I have a video you can watch.
Okay, guys, I did my makeup! I'm ready! I changed my outfit! Now we're about to go to the restaurant that we booked. We came to the Ritz Carlton Hotel Istanbul. The hotel is absolutely beautiful! One day, I want to invite and stay in this hotel with my family. Your girl is going to work hard for that!
Look at this view! There is the Vakko Patisserie. My mother told me that the Vakko Patisserie is one of the best in Turkey, so I decided to give it a shot soon.
We came to the super fancy restaurant Nobu. My mother is a friend with one of the chefs in Nobu. I want to meet with him, but he went back to Malaysia just the day before we went to Nobu.
I am thanking Chef Masa for everything because of him, we were able to enjoy a bunch of unbelievably delicious Japanese food. I wanted to thank him so badly and meet him, so I decided to visit him in Malaysia one day with my mom. Stay tuned for the Malaysia vlog, you guys!
Nobu is a worldwide-known luxury Japanese restaurant. There are so many Nobu restaurants spread across over five continents, so I recommend you check if there is a Nobu restaurant in your town and experience amazing Japanese food.
After entering the restaurant, Chef Herve, who is another chef working in Nobu and helped us that day, allowed me to film the kitchen where all the yummy stuff is made. I don't know about you guys, but I love seeing how my food is made, especially when it's yummy.
Now, some tempura time! Tempura is a typical Japanese dish usually consisting of seafood, meat, and vegetables that have been battered and deep fried. I love shrimp tempura the most! If you have never tried tempura yet, I highly, highly, highly recommend you to try some tempura and the caviar tacos with avocado and the shell made of sweet ink.
So please enjoy the videos!
Okay, thank you for time to taste our caviar avocado taco! I was telling my mom how good it is and enjoying my meal. Guys, I love caviar, I love avocado, and I love tacos!
Time to learn some Japanese! Sugoi means a lot and oishii means delicious, so "sugoi oishii" is very delicious. I'm going to use this word pretty often in this vlog, so I recommend you to learn that.
I was saying "ummee," which is a not-so-elegant way to say delicious. I don't really talk elegantly in Japanese, so I don't really recommend you to mimic my Japanese.
Shiva's tiradito with used lemon with the soy sauce and rocoto chili, and here you have a toro tata with caviar on the top. The sauce is wasabi soy. This one here is the yellowtail with the jalapeno, coriander, and a touch of garlic, and the sauce is yuzu soy.
Time to taste some toro with caviar! If you can eat raw food, you're missing so, so much! Everything that we ate in Nobu was amazing. I couldn't believe that it's this good!
Like, ah!
Herve Chef: "Oishii?" (Delicious?)
R: "Sugoi oishii!" (Very delicious!)
Herve Chef came to our table and asked me if it's delicious. Are you joking me? This is unbelievable!
Now time for our fancy spinach! The thing that amazed me is that I'm not a big spinach fan, but this one, you guys! How can a literal leaf be this good? This is a plant! It's a plant!
All of the foods were mom-approved, and my mom went to her bunch of famous Japanese restaurants, but Nobu is special! It is unbelievable! I want you to eat real good Japanese food, just go to Nobu, just go to Nobu if you want to experience good Japanese food.
Time for sushi! By the way, there are so many different menus other than sushi, so if you don't like sushi but still want to taste some fancy Japanese stuff, just go to Nobu.
After remembering that I was an influencer, I decided to take some photos because this is literally my job! I really loved how they had great customers in Japanese saying "Irasshaimase." Their pronunciation was so cute!
I think when foreigners speak Japanese, they sound so cute! I like that so much, and also a lot of Japanese people appreciate that as well. So learn Japanese if you want to impress me! Just kidding, maybe not!
I dropped my precious sushi. Somebody has to learn how not to be clumsy! They made another for me, but it was so good that I ate the one I dropped as well.
Time for ikura, which is red caviar. Normally, I don't like ikura, but the Nobu one was really fresh and yummy! By the way, my brother loves ikura even though he doesn't like raw food, which is kind of weird.
I think this is the first time that I've ever liked ikura. Like, my grandpa always, always, always buys ikura, and like every single year, I taste it, and every single year, I hate it. But this time, I actually like ikura, which is pretty surprising for me. I was never expecting this good. Like, this is so, so good that I'm shocked!
This is surprisingly good!
Time for dessert! I don't remember the name of the desserts, but the chocolate one was the best, the chocolate mousse one. I'll definitely order it next time!
If you watch this video and decide to go to Nobu, show the photo of that and screenshot this. Show the photo of that and eat that chocolate mousse one because it is so good! Like, I can't, I can't even believe how good it is!
The ice cream and the chocolate—what is that? Like some sort of cake-ish thing—was also good, but the mousse one was top-notch!
Okay, so we came back to our hotel. That was a super yummy fancy dinner! I cannot explain how delicious it was! It was like so, so, so good. If you live in Istanbul and if you can afford it, I would highly, highly, from the bottom of my heart, recommend you to go to Nobu and try Japanese food!
If you want to try real Japanese food, the only place that you can go in Istanbul is Nobu, so don't forget to try them out!
And yeah, after our fancy dinner, I came back to reality and worked a bit because in order to pay for those things, I have to work.
I took some hot shower and decided to try some face masks that I got from Japan.
Okay, so it's a little mask time! I bought this Dr. Jart mask from Japan. This is a shake-and-shot mask. I really love those types of unique designs, and I really appreciate them. And when I see something with a fancy design, I buy them.
And here we have our ingredients. Why do I fail this much? Oh, this one is easier now. It looks something like this, just ah.
Okay, now we need to quickly apply this mask while taking it with the spatula. My forehead is so huge! Oh, this has some sort of rubbery texture. I think that's what they were meaning.
Okay, so this is a lot of masks actually! Like, I have a lot of excess in my hand, but it says that you're gonna glue this mask for 15 to 20 minutes, and after that, you peel the mask off.
Oh, I got it in my eye!
Oh, [__]!
Gently peel off the mask starting from the edge. So we're supposed to start from the edge. This doesn't hurt! I tried so many peeling masks that really hurt your face, but this doesn't hurt at all because it's very soft.
But you can see how gentle this is. Oh, I love this! I'm not really sure if it's my skin or something. I think it's a very fun mask to do. Am I gonna buy it again? Probably not, just like for the experience.
But I think it would be super fun if you would like buy this mask with your friends and try them together. Like during maybe a sleepover or something, I think that would be super, super fun!
Okay, good morning! My mom and I, we're about to have breakfast. We went to the breakfast hall of the hotel to have our breakfast. Even though it looks good, it was not that good. Or maybe my tongue went a little bit crazy after our dinner, and I can't really understand the taste of the foods because that was so good, you know what I mean?
Okay, so I had a quick nap, and now we're about to go to the swimming pool and swim with my mom.
Okay, so we basically went to the swimming pool, but the swimming pool was closed because there was some sort of a technical problem, and it is closed today, so we weren't able to swim unfortunately.
However, we went to the sauna, and I was there for I think 15 or 20 minutes. I sat there, I just like sweated, and then came back. I took a nice hot shower! Now I'm currently watching Early Abdul and making some notes and learning new stuff, talking points for my next like 10 to 20.
This was it for today! I hope you guys enjoyed this vlog! Let me see you in my next video. Bye!
