Its for the rich and spoiled folks who have caretakers, trust funds, onlyfans investors, or rich parents. There's alot of people we'd never understand like this in the world.
Erewhon customers are willing to pay a premium to have the flavor efficiently removed from their food. It's a highly satisfying form of self flagulation. The poors wouldn't understand.😂
Erewhon cracks me up. Pretty much all the food looks decent but not extremely exceptional, similar to what you'd get at any nice grocery store. You can very much get much better value for your money from other places, including actual high end restaurants. The thing is Erewhon is betting on their regulars believing that more money equals better quality, and everyone else going once for the novelty. Either way they're making *bank* with mid food.
The Clam place was brilliant ab-so-clam-it-lutely deliciousness! But the other place.. nope. For these prices, it should all be cooked to order. Served on real plates and cutlery. Except the sausages, aka wallet-happinees suppositories. Rather by a plane ticket back to Manila Buffet.❤😊😊 Thanks, Mikey! You're the best foodie out here!🥰🥰💕💖🌸
I bet you miss the food prices in Philippines already Mikey, haha! You should definitely try the tuna omelet from 7/11 when you comeback, it's such a peppery -savory meal considering it's a microwavable food. Welcome back to the US! 💪
Typical rich people pretentiousness. I grew up in Princeton, NJ and they had restaurants charging NYC prices for food that was not much better than chain restaurants. I have found this to be the case in Naples, Florida and Jacksonhole Wyoming. The rich people see the price and valet parking and think it's fine dining, but the scallops are hard, pasta is overcooked, and steaks not cooked to temp. And it begs the question, why would any great cooks live in those locations, its too expensive for a cooks wage to live there unless they grew up there? Hence poorly executed but high priced food with small portions.
Even if I had the money, I wouldn't give Erewhon my business if their food is that inconsistent for what you pay. I'd pay what, about $2/link at the most for sausages that big and that, well, underwhelming.
I’m all about capitalism but charging $7 for a breakfast sausage should land you in jail for treason. Nobody should be promoting this store, it’s counter productive for the rest of the country.
Mike, Please doing flight reviews again. You may like doing food reviews more, but the flight reviews helps your viewers to have a more complete experience. Thanks,
@ why are you assuming that non-rural folk are liberals? We make more money than you and we want to keep it. You unknowingly just exposed that you are exactly what I described
I'm sorry but $7.50 for a single sausage is absolutely ridiculous 😂 the burrito, home fries, pizza and smoothie looked really good though

Beers were ten dollars when I was younger..
Yup nuts
So privileged
na man If I'm paying $20 for a drink it better be at least half Johnny Walker 😁
😂 😂 My thoughts exactly
Yup
I thought Whole Foods is the most expensive grocery store in America but I was wrong!
We joke that Whole Foods is Whole Paycheck, Erewhon is Entire Salary!

$70 for 1.5 lbs of dog food !! 🤯
Watching your dog eat cat poop to chase it: Priceless
mike chen trying the hailey bieber smoothie was not on my 2024 bingo card
That place does remind me of a tidier Whole Foods
Mike taking a hit for the team lol

right in time for my dinner
No wonder why it's called Erewhon (nowhere backwards)... Nowhere else will you find prices that insane.
lol😂
nohwere
Not quite nowhere backwards but close enough!
how about a NYC Bodega next!
The ocky way
With all those expensive items you can best believe they still pay their workers 17-19 an hour and the managerial staff most likely gets 20-25$
Fr lmao
Mikey Chen at Erewhon is the content I needed !!!
Their breakfast burritos are surprisingly good.
I shopped there last time I was in LA and some of the things are way overpriced but other stuff was reasonable for what it was albeit expensive
Watching from Kenya 🇰🇪
How is your dog doing?😢
The Erewhon in Pasadena is packed with people while the Wholefoods is pretty empty. These people are too good for Wholefoods 🤦🏻♀️
I want to try erewhon soooo badddd
Hi Mike, could you make a vlog on a average convenient store in America? Ty keep up the good work
Wearing a shirt from my home town.🥰
And they most likely still use seed oils.
$7.50 for a sausage!!!!!! Man, a butchers in the uk will give you about 10/12 excellent sausages for that
Lmao but then you’d have to go to the UK
@IamnotJokic the whole point is Butchers anywhere incl. The u.s would have better quality sausages from somewhere else
@@milkonbean well obviously. I’m sure ppl know that but ppl go to food courts to have it served and a place to hang out
You should team up with Kimono Mom, as she us touring the United States. They internet celebrities combination would serve both of you well.
Mike Chen seems to have traded his adventurous palate for the predictable fare of buffets and convenience stores.
Variety is the spice of life they say
Considering what I just spent on a few days of food at my local store, being the "Most Expensive grocery store" isn't that big of a flex.
That pigeon at 15:17 is a cutie.

And here I thought Publix was expensive…. 😂

Wagu beef dog food 😂
2:54 Did you say my favorite word yet?????😂😂😂
I thought Wegmans was crazy expensive, it doesn’t compare to that
Times supermarket in Hawaii? Lol
Hello from Alaska!
Nearly $50 for breakfast that’s a hard pass for me I’m sorry but the local ramen shop I frequent is cheaper than that
00:34 red velvet power up
I thought the Fresh Market was expensive.
If I hear someone says that a food taste "healthy" I assume that food tasted terrible.
YES😁
4:14 Erewhon!?
HELL NO!!!
Erehwon is mostly just a place influencers shop to appear richer than they actually are.
In what world is liquid death normally priced?
I would need mushrooms on my pizza
Did that menu read $114 and $79? WTF?!?
Even if I had the money, I wouldn't give Erewhon my business if their food is that inconsistent for what you pay. I'd pay what, about $2/link at the most for sausages that big and that, well, underwhelming.
$47 for breakfast, $25 for bottled water, Wagyu beef dog food… what has the world become?! 😢
I'd actually refuse to shop in there on principle. Those prices are way overinflated. They are simply out to rip the public off
I would never shop here. I'd rather see affordable options that have good flavor.
Those are scallops not mussels.
joosheeee
$20 for a smoothie!? 😱😅
No thanks
Lol
Wow! No on breakfast 🤦🏾
For people with too much money to blow and just want to flex. Not for us poor people.
That’s very expensive.
wagyu beef dog food!!🤦😂
Mike, your parents are very upset with you and those prices. Lol.
Fools and their money are quickly parted.
thanks for sharing this. to be honest i would NOT buy these items here.
I’ll be damned
Yeah … this place isn’t going to last long …😅
There's a lot of jealous people on here

Overpriced for that clam meal

I grew up eating Steam Cherry Stone Clams my whole life.
I don't get how they can stay in buisness these days.
I can just see all the pending outrage comments from the rural viewers living in middle America 😂 if it’s not domino prices they don’t want it
I found the out of touch liberal guys!!!! How's that Harris vote doing for ya?😂
