This dude is living good. A kitchen full of food, and makes a Mac n cheese quesadilla, opens up a nice cool beer, comfortable in his pjs late at night. I don’t know why but all that seems so relaxing
No. The worst of it is that he could finish a full beer and put the rest in the fridge. Who does that? Saves half a beer cause the other half was just too much? Sociopaths, that's who.
I really feel though this dude lives a second life once his kids and wife go to bed. He probably acts like he only knows how to microwave hot pockets when there awake to throw them off
Dude I love how casual and somewhat realistic these videos are. Its an incredible pleasure to see a highly skilled chef cooking food that is actually not high end. Plus, it always ends up making my mouth water. Love the work man, please keep it up
I just watched this man salt the outside of a quesadilla and realized I've been making them wrong my whole life. Why did I even get out of bed this morning...
Every night I come home from work now I get a little fucked up and look forward to watching your slightly buzzed quiet late night snack videos. Thank you
I have been both calmed and inspired by your recent videos. You always teach me something new even in silence and it's such a beautiful, rare feeling in these odd times. Thank you!
Perks of being a chef. Cooking comes so natural to you. Something that looks so difficult to someone would be a passion for others. I love when people take pictures of my creations. And this is a great way to show how a simple thing could be such a dream.
@@Austin.vanderweil Even more common when working in a kitchen, piling up every pot, pan, bowl, and utensil one could conceivably use into a sink, because you are used to having a person there to wash everything for you.
kenji you keep me alive. lately ive been going through so much stress and your videos help me get through it. i wish you good health and a good life. much luv
being in quarantine these videos are something i look forward to every day. i don't know why but they're immensely entertaining, really hope they continue at a steady rate in the future (obviously don't expect them every day when this quarantine is over)
In case you were wondering, the only places on Earth where both oranges grow and bears live are Florida, Peru, Greece, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, and some small areas of California and India. But you probably weren't wondering...
I don’t know how to cook very well so I’ve been watching these videos lately. Along with learning how to prepare some simple yet delicious meals it’s also super satisfying to watch. Extremely efficient not a second wasted yet doesn’t seem rushed at the same time. Very good job and thank you for the videos
I’ve seen this guys vids a couple times and haven’t clicked on them... but after seeing different vids multiple consecutive days in a row I was impressed and persistence deserves notoriety! Great content man new sub for life
His system is so orderly he’s got the perfect kitchen setup everything is where it needs to be and he just works so smoothly 😂why is this so satisfying to watch
Everything is within arms reach nothing is far from you love that space in your kitchen. Learned what to do after using the cast iron pan and a tasty late night snack 😁 and as always the love for the pup that’s awesome.
Stopped by at Wursthall in San Mateo today. Great food and the staff were really nice. Between these videos and the restaurant you're killing it man. Keep it up!
anton mattila he meant like chefs don’t always try to reheat foods the “proper” way on a stovetop or something, they still use microwaves like normal people
One of the things that I enjoy about Kenji the most is not only his great Food but his cleanliness. Not only cleaned up his mess but also seasoned his skillet before even taking a bite. I am very similar minus the ability to cook like a beast.
By now I already know where the stuff in his kitchen are located.
he opened his fridge and i already knew a beer was going to be the first thing i saw.
@@kkim5000 it's the hot sauce(s) for me.
We've witnessed the entire lifespan of that cheddar cheese block
We're pretty much members of his family

@@kingpinsmith22 Which is the best for a late night snack. Food comas are better at noght
@@kingpinsmith22 he said and unhealthy Lmao😂😭
@@brianrivas1744 it is if you do it every single night. But, now and then, it wouldn't harm anyone. Stay safe🤝
@Benji you should try it dude, its actually not that hard, and you get a treat for yourself
It’s people like you, who strap a GoPro on their head while making a quesadilla... that make this a life worth living.
Too true 😂
True
I love this comment
Rawhio Marty It’s quarantine what the fuck are we gunna do🤦♂️
mega beanos if a hike through the wilderness isn’t social distancing then what is? oh no, that spruce tree gave me covid!!!!!

Kenji's dog : "oh boy we're gonna get food"

Love ❤️ Kenji and puppy 🐶
What is your puppy’s 🐕 name Kenji?
@@amymelissamargolis249 It's Shabu
Rob Carey I know Shabu shabu is a style of cooking food
@@amymelissamargolis249 his name is shabu, you dimwit.
Sat throughout this 11 minute video as if I was gone get some when he was done.

I feel ya.
It’s called “Shabu syndrome”
Nick Si lmao
Love how he's caring for his carbon steel pan immediately after he's done cooking with it!
WhiteMikedunno what do you mean?
@@trickyfoo he's "seasoning" it
Isn't it cast iron?
@@tymorrison8499the metal looks a bit too thin to be cast iron I think
@@WhiteMikedunno you know, on second look, I think you're right.
1:31 This isn’t actually late night because what kind of maniac lets the microwave beeper go off in the middle of the night
@@Continuetogo no one should have this much power

Randall Floyd what ?

When you ask yourself “what would make these carbs and cheese better?”
The answer is “more carbs and cheese.”
and mushrooms!
Also, let's drink some carbs with it.
Pliny the Elder
Fact
I read both of those sentences as 'crabs' not carbs lol
I just watched this man salt the outside of a quesadilla and realized I've been making them wrong my whole life. Why did I even get out of bed this morning...
ryan wellman It both seasons and assists in the sliding. Salt the hot/oiled side; some will stick but some will go in the pan. Little ball bearings.
ingredients:
tortilla
mushrooms
mac and cheese
cheese
MatCat thx man it was a little overwhelming
You forgot the most important ingredient of all...
*Love*
Now thats revealing.
Instructions unclear...Im drunk
Every night I come home from work now I get a little fucked up and look forward to watching your slightly buzzed quiet late night snack videos. Thank you
That trick with the condensed milk is worth my entire TH-cam subscription for 2020.
i'm pretty sure that's evaporated milk, condensed milk isnt that runny
if he use condensed milk, it will be waaaaaay too sweet, mate.
It's evaporated milk but same brands in US has "condensed" on the label.
If he was humming the zelda theme song at the beginning around 35 seconds, i think it's safe to say i'm in love
Saria's song (lost woods), so not THE Zelda theme, but A Zelda theme.
But same sentiment here.
I hear that Zelda whistle at 0:42 Kenji. A man of culture.
Nice catch
Yes 🤝
I whistle and hum the Lost Woods theme so often, its also my ringtone so i hear it daily 😂
That's why I've suddenly got zelda stuck in my head!
I was just about to say that! It definitely is.
I have been both calmed and inspired by your recent videos. You always teach me something new even in silence and it's such a beautiful, rare feeling in these odd times. Thank you!
My man was gonna' grab a Corona, but he knew he had to flex on us with the Pliny.
Collin Robinson i was scrolling thru comments to see if anyone commented about the Elder. one of my favorite IPAs
Extacly what I thought!
The half finished corona going stale in the fridge as if he cracked it open took a swig and thought "damn, i better not"
00:43 - Someone been playing some Zelda it seems.
so it would seem
Kakariko Forrest 😭
Ahh I knew something sounded familiar about that lol
When I watch his videos I feel like the rat from Ratatouille perched on his head controlling everything. _Is that weird?_
Shadsy The Hedgehog I know, but not a lot of people remember his name for some reason so I just put rat
No not at all
Nothing is weird anymore.
Just Some Guy With a Beard “hits the blunt once”
Perks of being a chef. Cooking comes so natural to you. Something that looks so difficult to someone would be a passion for others. I love when people take pictures of my creations. And this is a great way to show how a simple thing could be such a dream.
I feel like this guy probably knows how to throw some sick ass parties
Please keep blessing us with these consistent uploads
And hot sauce
Hearing microwave go off twice late at night
"He's too dangerous to be kept alive!"
Big fan of how he cleans while cooking. My roommates got something to learn!
Didn't think I'd see this.... Did you....
I do it too but my wife... not so much.
Pretty common if working in a kitchen
*MISE EN PLACE*
@@Austin.vanderweil Even more common when working in a kitchen, piling up every pot, pan, bowl, and utensil one could conceivably use into a sink, because you are used to having a person there to wash everything for you.
Nobody:
Kenji: I'll put my half-drunken corona back...
*Gob from arrested development voice after he sips Corona*
"I've made a huge mistake."
I loved this
Can't wait for the nobody meme to die!
Stop using this shitty format
As a Mexican that offended me.
One silver lining of this whole corona thing is more Kenji videos❤️. Hope you and your loved ones are doing ok Kenji!
POV-you’re stoned at 2am but you’re in quarantine
How’d u know? 🤔
Danny Kawadri im baked af rn and i approve of this comment
8:20 when you walk in a room but forgot what you were trying to do
The amount of self control is unbelievable, I wouldve grated three quarters of that cheeseblock on the quesadilla
or made 2 quesadillas....
@@SmileEVERYDAYlaugh Well then you need 6 quarters of a cheeseblock
Jake Sommer “6 quarters of cheeseblock” may very well be the greatest thing I’ve ever heard

When the apocalypse, comes this man will be the relatable and likable chef that will prepare us amazing bear stew and orange juice.
In case you were wondering, the only places on Earth where both oranges grow and bears live are Florida, Peru, Greece, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan, and some small areas of California and India. But you probably weren't wondering...
The way he says goodnight at the end is kinda making me a part of this routine (however weird that may sound).
Nowadays they do weird asmr :D
It made me feel all warm and happy, like Internet Cooking Dad patted me on the head before saying "Get some rest, slugger, big day tomorrow." ^_^

I’m a line cook so I’m the one who makes all the snacks for my drunk friends. Busting this one out for sure!!!!!!!
you are an angel
You're good man
Thats some dig bick energy
Why is this man so coordinated with his cooking and his life
He probably worked or works in a kitchen so you gotta be organized and coordinate as much possible clean as you go and do everything precise
I love how he washes everything as soon as he's done using it, I can only dream
Its a bad OCD. I do the same thing... clean while I cook. Haha
@@Tyler-xe1es no way its ocd dude, thats a good habit anybody who cooks should have
@@gideonamare160 it's quite literally one of the first things they taught us in culinary school.
My mom raised me to do that she always told me clean as you go
Your videos are just so calming and very good....you washing dishes is very calm...

Wait ... wait ... wait ... wait ... wait ... wait ... wait ... go!
So many tutorials and glamour shots in cooking videos. It's refreshing to see someone just you know, cooking.
>Open the fridge
>Takes Corona Beer
>"Nah, I don't think so"
Gotta love Pliny! That, STS, and Damnation are the best from RR!
Me at 3 am: *watches the video*
Also at 11:10 whispers *goodnight*.
Me: "Ok my time has come"
Haha it’s 2:00 am rn
his whispering song of storms makes me love him even more
Never knew how much I could learn about cooking from a video with zero instructions. Lotta respect chef.
I enjoy this so much more than anything on cable. The simplicity is a lost art
Kenji: *whistles zelda lost woods theme*
Me: i do that 😂

So relaxing & takes away my stress just watching😊💙
Stopped by at Wursthall in San Mateo today. Great food and the staff were really nice. Between these videos and the restaurant you're killing it man. Keep it up!
He lives in the Bay?! Sweet!!!
How did you get to sit in the restaurant when its complete lockdown?
Huh take out right?????????
Anuj Suryavanshi He didn’t say he sat there.
Happen to know if they’re doing growlers to go?! 👀
I been watching your videos bro, you turn simpleness into delicious, to that’s what being a good cook is all about
Damn I really need to get me one of them -vacuum cleaners- dogs
I love when you can tell that he’s got a good buzz going
These uploads are honestly making quarantine so much better, like I hope you know that brotha
The cleaning as you go.. Sensational !
4:15 *dog comes in
“If you’re not gonna let me sleep, I I guess I’ll watch. What cha makin?”
See, even a professional chef microwaves his leftover food.
You thought chefs throws away leftover food?.....
I assume they re-cook it on a pan...
anton mattila he meant like chefs don’t always try to reheat foods the “proper” way on a stovetop or something, they still use microwaves like normal people
@@antonmattila6792 i think his point was that there's still people in 2020 who believe that microwaves will kill you if you use them.
*Gordon Ramsay entered the chat.*
Sippy cups and a toddler tower. The man has kids! Future late night chefs! Also explains him eating at night so he doesnt have to share.
Shit goes down when the lights are off
Casually whips out a pliny the elder. Love it, thats how great beer should be enjoyed.
My man with that corona beer in his fridge be livin the high life
Harshith R I see what ya did there
that pliney the elders where its at though
Pliny is better.
This man's dreams probably involve a gargantuan amount of cheese.
Okay now I know I'm doing my cast iron cleaning and seasoning right because you do it the exact same way lol
I wish I could cook as good as this guy. He doesn’t use recipes or measurements, he just knows his medium and creates great food.
Your dog is always sneaking around, it has me dying
6:48 as soon as I saw El Yucateco hot sauce, I was like " ahhh yeah" that's my shit
Hell yeah
bring back an updated late night chorizo grilled cheese. first video i ever watched and legit watch it every week haha.
Under quarantine. Bored. "What's this?" "Aw, damn. That looks bomb!" SUBSCRIBED!
Miles Iovinella Welcome to the addiction
Then, after consuming a late night meal consisting of 500g carbs, Kenji went for longest walk of his life.
I appreciate that his fridge looks like a real fridge inside. Every celebrity show you my fridge I've seen has look way too organized imo.
Bro I be eating cereal with Ice Cream at night this man making masterpieces lmao
He's not the Hero we deserve, but the Hero we need.
One of the things that I enjoy about Kenji the most is not only his great Food but his cleanliness. Not only cleaned up his mess but also seasoned his skillet before even taking a bite. I am very similar minus the ability to cook like a beast.
I was just eyeing ol' Pliny. Yum
Love how he just lets the cooking do all the talking couldn’t ask for more 😎
I once wished you made more of these, and now I have an addiction I love to have.
I love how casual this whole process is. Like if I tried this I’d end up burning my kitchen down when I forgot to flip my dilla 😂
Hey man, thanks for this channel, I enjoy it so much. Makes me excited to try cooking new things everytime
I love this guy. I could watch him all day.
Teacher: Ok so ground rule, y’all cant eat in my classroom.
Kids in the back of the class:
Love how rhe dig just stares at the floor below the cooker waiting
DUDE IS THAT “PLINY THE ELDER” IN YOUR FRIDGE ?!!!!!!
Such a low key flex
Next to the Corona 🤣
Any idea what radler that is?
have you seen what he has on tap in the restaurant?! i’d drink like a goldfish. ha
Dude I caught that too. I knew I wasn’t the only one
who needs ASMR channels when u have this
im really just waiting for the doggo
Imagine how careful he had to be to not step on the dog's tail
wow pliny the elder! wish i had one of those right now :(
PLINY!
I would wake up the whole house just from putting bread in the toaster, he manages to make a whole ass meal!
When I saw that Pliny in your fridge i was like he’s for sure having that with his quesadilla lol
I just fell in love with this man
You have Pliny the Elder... I'm so jealous.
you giving the doggy some warmed my heart
I love this silent go pro idea!! This is exactly how I cook; it's so comforting to watch. I wish the videos were longer though
its actually insane how much I learn from a single one of your videos... I noticed so many little things you do that can be useful.
I've been struggling to get hot sauce in the shops recently. Now I know who has bought it all.
Kenji with a stocked fridge in quarantine is a dangerous combination
