When we were visiting Tokyo, my wife and I decided to take a short trip for a night to Hakone, a well known mountainous area, home to hot springs and Japanese traditional inns. We took the train from Shinjuku in Tokyo straight to Hakone-Yumoto Station within the town.
When you take a train in Japan, you are encouraged to eat, and so we stocked up on a few essentials before boarding.
Train trip rice – 2,050 JPY ($17.96) per person
Fish bento – 880 JPY ($7.71)
Beef bento – 1,150 JPY ($10.08)
Kansai sushi – 950 JPY ($8.32)
Katsu rice burger – 223 JPY ($1.95)
Don’t forget to eat some awesome Japanese food when you take a train in Japan.

Freeze at 10:52…worth the price of admission.
i usually see your video in the mark wiens channel.. but i just found another different channel about your same kind of journey.. i dont understand
7:46 expectation vs reality
The torture of Micah watching his dad eat a f*ck ton of food in front of him.
I am addicted to your videos…
Price of those bento seem like a rip off for so little meat.
japanese food can be real boring with bland flavours. Still better than the average train food though, but i’ll pass
Was any of that refrigerated?
Nothing better than having nice food to nibble on a long ride.
I love your videos and the fact that you have always a smile for us viewers! Have a safe trip!
I just hope nothing bad happen to your baby.
I mean you guys travel a lot
Enjoying Food While Watching Mark Wiens Video <3 it makes me Think That What your Eating,Same goes For me Hahahaja
I hate it when he shakes his head and says: hmm, oh yeah.
May I ask exactly where did you put the luggage on the train? I see you fit your backpack on the overheard. Would you say a check-in sized luggage would fit as well? My friends and I are doing this exact trip and we’re each carrying a check-in luggage (not the big ones but they’re surely not carry-on size).
Ask the store to heat up the bentos for you. Most of the store will do that with a microwave.
Enjoyed your video, love food and culture videos. Pay attention to how to do family travel and places to go as a family as well, for the parent crowd. Great job
thank you for showing this, its giving me alot of ideas on what to work with my sea weed wraps
I don’t really think they eat hot bendos.
bento shops will be in large stations, and probably bento vending machines in smaller stations, but there’re not really many vending machines for bento
Mark does ur wife eats? I don’t see her eating in ur vid whilte ur are happily enjoying your food
The Sushi Bento you had is a different type of Sushi from the usual one that most people outside of Japan know. The Sushi that most people outside of Japan know is the one called “Edo Mae Sushi” which came from the Edo (now Tokyo) area. The Sushi you had in the Bento is called “Oshi Sushi” or pressed sushi. It is more traditional and originated in the Kansai (Kyoto, Osaka) area. As you know, the Sushi was traditionally done to preserved the fish when refrigeration was not yet invented. So the fish and rice were preserved in vinegar. That is why you find the Oshi Sushi to be stronger in Vinegar and Salt. As your lunch was a Bento for traveling, it is often Oshi Sushi so that it can preserve and withstand the travel without spoiling. The most traditional Sushi is one called “Funa Sushi” which was where the fish was fermented using the rice. The Rice fermented to make Alcohol and that fermented and kept the fish from spoiling. Funa Sushi as you can imagine is an acquired taste and many do not like the fermented flavor.
Anyway, I am enjoying your videos a lot. Thanks for posting.
I love how this guy just smiles 24/7
