Get ready for a sizzling episode as Shizuka bravely tackles Tokyo's spiciest culinary delights - not one, but three fiery challenges await her! Will she finish each dish and win the challenge?
The fiery journey begins at Kikanbo, renowned for serving Tokyo's hottest ramen. Stepping into the ominous ambiance of the store, Shizuka faces the diabolically spicy ramen, but there's more than just heat to look forward to. Amidst the fiery broth lies succulent chashu pork that melts in the mouth, accompanied by perfectly cooked noodles and a tantalizing boiled egg.
Next on the fiery agenda is a showdown with a scorching hot mapo tofu, generously topped with sansho and togarashi pepper. This Chinese delicacy sets the taste buds on fire with a harmonious blend of spices, promising an unforgettable spicy experience!.
The grand finale awaits at the Fire Garden, where Shizuka encounters a dish that pushes the boundaries of heat - the Carolina Reaper yakisoba! The color itself is enough to scare the challengers away, but Shizuka braces herself for the ultimate test of endurance.
Join Shizuka on her fiery quest as she navigates through Tokyo's hottest foods, pushing her taste buds to the limit. Will the spiciness prove too fierce to handle? Tune in to witness Shizuka and her indomitable stomach take on these scorching challenges!

Shizuka's facial expressions when consuming spicy food is SO different from any other video she has done. So funny and entertaining! Having the producer trying the spicy noodles was a good feature. Maybe Shizuka should have had a guest which would maybe have been more entertaining. Great video! Hope to try these spicy dishes one day! I look forward to the next video!

Awesome food adventure. I like how during the 2nd part she tasted without the rice, and I knew immediately that would sting more, and she confirmed lol. Then the 3rd part while eating the noodles after the first bite, she habitually pushed away the plate. 😂 I can feel it.

From my experience the fastest way to get rid of the spicy sensastion is to gargle with water or just spit. You should try it the next time you're in for another spicy food adventure

I can also recommend Giljotin in Osaka for spice lovers, they dont use Reaper but fresh Jolokia which sure packs a punch. spiciest dish i had in my life so far, Kikanbou omni level isnt that bad in my opinion. I really wanna try Fire Garden next time im in Tokyo that looked so good!

Carolina Peppers 🌶 are hot because of the soil in that state. Thai peppers grown there almost killed me with just a tiny bit. Milk or salt doesn’t help at all for the first time. A normal Thai pepper, I can eat about 10 before I feel the burn like the Thai pepper grown in Carolina.
I could just see Kotomine Kirei eating the mapo tofu.
