🚂 Teppanyaki by Train!? Incredible Railway Restaurant in Nasu, Japan
🚂 Teppanyaki by Train!? Incredible Railway Restaurant in Nasu, Japan
Looking for a railway-themed restaurant in Japan? Just 2 hours from Tokyo, we visited the incredibly popular “Joki Kikan-sha” (Steam Locomotive Restaurant) in the scenic Nasu Highlands of Tochigi Prefecture—and it felt just like a theme park! 🚄✨
This one-of-a-kind restaurant features a 1/5 scale working steam locomotive that delivers your food on rails. From sizzling teppanyaki dishes cooked with steam to adorable desserts, it’s a paradise for both foodies and railway fans. Plus, we hopped on Japan’s longest rideable mini SL—and it was awesome! 🚂

蒸気機関車マニアにはもってこいの場所🚂
好想去
한국에도 비슷한 테마의 식당이 있지만 야외에 실제 기차들, 내부에 저런 플레이 존까지 있는건 신기하네요. 모형기차, 맛있는 음식, 기차의 주행 소리, 마음이 회복되는 영상입니다.
上野駅の席に案内されると、ＳＬが少しだけ動くだけで止まってしまうので子供達には残念ですね。
十数年前、蒸氣汽関車に行ったことあります！
子供が夢中になれるだけじゃなく、大人は童心に帰らせてくれる
Another good video to watch quietly on your computer with a hot tea. Interestingly, the photos at 14:09 feature a Spanish Talgo Pendular locomotive (same system as the E351 Azusa pendular locomotive) and a 333 series diesel locomotive in the second photo strip, next to the locomotive with the red front and blue body.
I like that we got there.
懐かしい、昔旅行で行きました。那須高原、近くには自動車博物館もあります。静岡県裾野市には日本庭園鉄道がありミニSLに乗れます。本格的。
It easy,Indonesia's Train restaurant and cafe use sevices food drink halal in train miniatures in restaurant and cafe of java island jakarta west java central java special area yogyakarta and east java and view train miniature lay out's and anymore's
18:10 SL のレストラン すごいね
13:32 ~ やっぱり世界標準機関車 K4s はありますよね！！ 一番好きな蒸気機関車なのでうれしいです。
So nice the food is not grilled on board🥩🥬🫑
Too hard to wash the wagons after serving🧽
I wanna know this location
レストランのSLの客車はおそらく20系寝台客車がモチーフです、少々形状が違いますが・・・・・
You can see it also in Wernigerode, Germany, in the Railway Hotel Altora in the restaurant.
12:14 おそらくこれはタイトーの電車でGO!2高速編 3000番台の販促用に作られたものと思います
元々の0番台ではE3系こまちは秋田→大曲のみの実装だったところ3000番台にて秋田→盛岡の在来線区間を通しで運転できるようになったためです（他の2路線も3000番台で追加されたもの）
食事高いなあ…
地元にも貨車に鉄板焼を載せて運んでくれるお店がありますが、こちらは列車が大きくて迫力ありますね( ﾟдﾟ)
お弁当のお茶の容器も懐かしいw
ここって、昔は焼肉じゃなかったでしたっけ？？何年か前に閉店したと聞いていましたが、鉄板焼きとして復活したんですね！！30年以上前の焼肉だった頃に行ったことあります！！懐かしいなぁ。。。
約30年前、私がまだ乳飲み子だった頃家族でここを訪れてたらしいです
Put a nice place. I love the model train display. This is a great place for all generations to eat and enjoy trains. Keep making great content. Best wishes: Mr.RailYard
