Maaan. Mike can eat like an anime character. Like Goku or Kirby. This guy had tonkatsu 3 ways and pork belly then proceeded to have 2 large bowls of ramen in the same night. But right when you thought it was over. SIKE. He gets a cheesecake crepe. Holy crap.
everything sounds so good the way you describe the flavors. I have really opened my pallet up since I started watching your TH-cam channel. So thank you for all your videos of you in so many place because of you I and my family are fans and trying new foods and flavors.
Mikey, you are such a great company. I hope you read this. You've gotten me through some rough times, accompanied me in a few others, and also made me really get into different foods and cultures. A huge thank you and hug to you. 🙏
lets see he has admitted to having stomachs for food, ramen, desserts, lobster, grilled lobster, i believe one for general seafood as well and almost sure one for steaks
The food always looks so amazing and you always explain about the food you are ordering. Thank you for that and also for going to a lot of different food places that most of us will never get to try.
afuri is one of my fav ramen places in tokyo. it's especially heartwarming during the winters. afuris is always my first stop after i arrive into the city.
This makes me so excited to eventually travel and eat outside of the US. I’ve been lucky enough to travel around the states and have amazing food, but one day, I hope to explore the whole world and all the food it has to offer~ Every place you’ve shown will be on my bucket list~
i love when mikey goes to japan LOL he always has a blast and it's so fun watching him eat all that delicious food! can't wait to go in december ... and his videos have basically been our food guide! thanks, mikey!
For real, right??? I've been waiting FOREVER for another return to Japan! The last time Mike was here, I found out so many hidden gems about Japan! I think I speak for both of us when I say that I can't wait to see what kind of gems he shares with us!
I don't regret watching your videos for hours every day! I am trying to eat different variety of food and appreciate them. More power to you Mike (and your stomach) 😂😍
Thanks for another awesome video! today was my birthday and i had Ramen from a Ramen shop for the first time, SO much better than instant Ramen. your videos all ways bring me Joy, keep up the good work and eat on!
Another stunning trip back to my favourite place . I only visited on business but I want to have more adventures in Japan. Lovely people and awesome food. Thanks for sharing Mike. Bug respect from Yorkshire
It blows my mind! I can barely take a bite of food if someone is watching me eat, and yet you video tape almost every bite you eat! I hate being watched while eating, but I love watching you eat!
My shin cup noodles dont seem quite so tasty anymore lol loved the crepe I am def going to try and recreate that one myself. Thanks for sharing Mikey :)
erm.....are you buying my ticket? haha costs involved are a big restriction. Maybe one day but I already have a few travels booked first. I know what I recreate will never be the same but still fun to try :)
First of all I only loved Japan because of their wonderful place and awesome people... but after watching this, my love for Japan intensifies because of their jaw-dropping food. 😍😍 My eyes have been blessed 😭😍💖
I really enjoy that this video is again one of the "One man, one camera" ones. The other ones might be higher production value, but this style is what I love this channel for.
Be prepared not to get into a couple places because you're not Japanese. They have Japanese only restaurants they are and if you're any other race other than Japanese they won't let you in...
Carrie Carithers - Restaurants no, at least I’ve never experienced that in my five trips to Japan. Izakaya’s, yes, they have Japanese and members only.
Hahaha! Emotion enducing!! That chopstick DOES look like a wand hahahahaha I love that they have Katsu sauce in the table!! Maaaan it sound absolutely amazing!!!! Take me with you 😂😂😂
You always go to the best food places. Would be interesting to see you go for some infamous ones. Try some obscure or bad food. Seeing your reaction would be fun
How was it? Any recommendations? And where did you go in what order and why because im planning on going with my friend and im trying to find ideas and inspo!! Any help would be great!!
Every time you put out another of these excellent videos I prepare my mouth for all the watering it's about to do. Maybe one day I'll travel to these exotic places and try these things. What a channel!
First 8 seconds into the video and the food already looks amazing. I was just thinking if there was a new upload and BOOM! 46 seconds into the upload and I immediately clicked on it. After such a long description, I have to say I enjoy watching your food videos. I love how you love food ☺️
Hi Mikey, I've been a long time fan of your videos, and I rarely ever comment on TH-cam videos in general, but I wanted to recommend a katsu restaurant that I fell in love with during my time in Japan. The restaurant is called Yabaton, which specializes in a special katsu called misokatsu. There's chains throughout Japan, but the origin of the dish is in Nagoya. In my opinion, the dish is pretty consistent across the locations. If you ever get the chance, I'd highly recommend you try it on one of your future trips. The pork katsu is extremely juicy and fatty on the inside while retaining its crispiness, and the dark miso sauce that it's smothered in has a slightly earthy and sweet flavor that complements the katsu extremely well. If you ever go, I'd recommend getting the misokatsu on the sizzling plate as a combo. Each time I've visited Japan, I've made it a must go to meal for myself. It's a dish that I sometimes dream about, and even though I get worried sometimes I hype myself too much for it on subsequent trips, the dish never fails to satisfy each time. Sorry for rambling so much, but if you're ever back in Japan again, I can guarantee it'll be worth your time. Thank you so much for making such awesome videos!
I grew up in Japan, and my mom would always make tonkatsu. It was one of my favorites. I probably haven't had it in 30 years, because when I go to a Japanese restaurant, it's either shabu shabu or sushi. Thanks for the memories. Maybe it's time to return to my homeland.
"I'm going to "pig out"." I actually giggled, laughed at that Mike. XD Yes, word play and puns are still humorous to me at least. Thanks for the great video, and it looks like I'll be having to expand my recipe collection even further. I shall be looking forward to your next video. =^.^=
I love watching ppl eat cuz I have ibs I can't eat some foods and I get full fast and my stomach is always upset so watching other ppl eat and explain everything makes me feel like I can taste it and like I'm eating it with them and makes me feel full 😋
Do it!!! It would definitely give you a reason to go all "Mike Chen" and eat everything in sight! Have fun in Tokyo! It's a huuuuge city, but lots to see and do!
Hey, better you're watching this right before lunch than right before going to bed, like I did! I think I tried to eat my pillow because I was having such awesome food dreams.
Hi Mikey Chen happy Saturday, have a wonderful weekend, another great video you just make these videos so adventurous and interesting it's really an awesome channel, you continue to do a great job thanks for always making these videos so warm and exciting. Till the next video God bless everyone 👋 bye. 🍜🍝🍣🍱🍤🍗🍖🍴.
Emacity Glade Thank you very much your point is well taken, some people just don't have a kind heart of positivity. Have a wonderful weekend friendless friend. 👍
Hey man. Been watching your channel for quite some time, followed up on some of the places you've been as well. (Live in SEA) I get that you have a talent for eating a lot but how much do you work out to be able to eat that much food haha? :'D In any case, great video, keep it up!
I think Mikey has been secretly training as a competitive food eater, hahah! It's the only possibility as to why he can eat the amount he does! I know if I were in his shoes, the katsodon restaurant would have put me out for the rest of the night. But the fact that he then went for ramen AND crepe shows that he has superhuman eating powers, haha!
Holy cow, that's an awesome idea, @jsalustiano jsalustiano! I'd love to see Mikey vs Yuka! It'd be like an episode of "Epic Rap Battles of History" except with no rap and a ton of food! I think the only problem is that Yuka doesn't speak a lick of English, so it would be hard for them to communicate and work something out together. I saw Yuka make a guest appearance on a Canadian-based TH-camr channel, and she could barely speak a word to them. It was kind of awkward when they asked her questions and she just kind of nodded, as she had no clue what they were saying, haha!
I love Japan so much. I went last year for the first time, and I loved it. I am aiming at the latest, 2020 for the Olympics, but hopefully next year as well.
Hey mike I know that you are more of the solitary guy but if you want a good reference for Japan is Ericsurf6 you may find out loads of great places with him ! But personally I do think that you guys may get overwhelmed by your competitive spirit . Lol but would love see you guys in a common video ! Love your work.

He's awesome. I love him
and that’s just his dinner lol
Mike Algiers maybe he was on drugs

I wonder if the restaurant owners get the wrong idea when you shake your head when you enjoy something
prob not

Jiachael 643 agree
lol
Strictly Dumpling omg!😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
People who want food only might not appreciate getting other videos in their feed.
The instant ramen sold in stores is bad for you (because of the way it's preserved). Fresh ramen is OK (well, just don't over-indulge ;) )
Mikey, you are such a great company. I hope you read this. You've gotten me through some rough times, accompanied me in a few others, and also made me really get into different foods and cultures. A huge thank you and hug to you. 🙏
I took your advice from various videos. You honestly made our trip in Tokyo. There is no way we would've found some of this stuff. Thanks so much
The way he describes the food is beautiful and mouth watering 😔
This guys got 3 stomachs
This bitch's cocky af.
A cow's stomach

I was in that exact ramen place last year and I agree with you! Truly an amazing experience!! Loved the grilled tonkatsu!
Deadzio by the looks of it i think
Deadzio If it’s red, it’s spicy, so just go for the non-red dishes. Some Ramen places also have English menus to make ordering easier.
LOVED that place!
Now this was one of the best narratives I have seen from you. Love your natural voice without all the added fluff you do in the more recent episodes 😊
This makes me so excited to eventually travel and eat outside of the US. I’ve been lucky enough to travel around the states and have amazing food, but one day, I hope to explore the whole world and all the food it has to offer~ Every place you’ve shown will be on my bucket list~

Lots of great places was found on this trip :-)
HaHa. The comment sounds like a communist joke.
This is an example of what non-multiculturalism gets you. Traditions, values, and uniqueness
I respect to the chefs there who work at midnight hour only to satisfy our empty stomach, i really appreciate it, thank you
I've never had genuine tonkatsu, but I made it a few time and it is absolutely amazing.
So excited for the Japan series to start! Thanks for the content Mikey (and team)
Just love your Japanese or Chinese food videos.
Watching you take massive bites of food is so satisfying.
I don't regret watching your videos for hours every day! I am trying to eat different variety of food and appreciate them. More power to you Mike (and your stomach) 😂😍
The Japanese videos of yours are always so interesting. Definitely a must for me.
Thanks for another awesome video! today was my birthday and i had Ramen from a Ramen shop for the first time, SO much better than instant Ramen. your videos all ways bring me Joy, keep up the good work and eat on!

Ness Firth why dont you go to japan instead of recreating it yourself
erm.....are you buying my ticket? haha costs involved are a big restriction. Maybe one day but I already have a few travels booked first. I know what I recreate will never be the same but still fun to try :)
well it's also nice to create something yourself, it makes it that much better.
Thanks for watching!
Mike is the kinda man you get a feeling of satisfaction after watching him eat what you cooked. For a man like that, I’ll cook all day everyday!
I subscribed during the first Japan series. So happy to see part 2!!
I prefer watching you eat in Japan than any other country...the vids are much more interesting and exciting to watch.
You have this ability to make me sooooo hungry even when I've just eaten! 🤣🤣❤❤❤
That's why Mike is the King of food channels!
First of all I only loved Japan because of their wonderful place and awesome people... but after watching this, my love for Japan intensifies because of their jaw-dropping food. 😍😍 My eyes have been blessed 😭😍💖
I love how he can just recite all the Friends characters from the top of his head
I really enjoy that this video is again one of the "One man, one camera" ones. The other ones might be higher production value, but this style is what I love this channel for.
Mikey everything you eat looks so amazing!!!!
Agreed
Yeah I wish I could go there and eat all that food
And hes so cute talking about food.🥰 his reviews so lovely and full of love to food.❤️ food connects people around the planet. 😌

I am constantly in awe of how much Mike can eat. How can anyone hold so much food and still be able to walk around?
The F-R-E-I-N-D-S reference is hysterical! Everything looks delicious!

I can put away the fame. I can never seem to get enough. I wait 5-10 minutes and I am so ready for a few more bowls. I adore, adore, adore ramen.
Everything looked delicious, but the ramen was something else 😋✌
Anyone else like these style of his vids rather than the newer ones? It’s more personal.
I always get soooooo hungry after watching your vids your vids are fire
This makes me love Japan even more.....
YOU ARE THR LUCKIEST MAN IN THE WORLD I would like to Go to Japan it's soooo awesome

You have essentially shared a meal with the world. Sat at the worlds dinner table... That is special.
Hahaha! Emotion enducing!!

The efficiency of that ramen place is fascinating.
its funny how when it comes with pork or ramen or food in general, hes like a kid in a candy store and i love it haha / subbed!
Every time I watch you it makes me hungry I want to go to Japan just to eat all that lovely food
Your videos are the best all your vlogs helped me in my tour tysm n keep up the good work ❤️🌸
I used to work selling japanese crepes, and I must say I have never seen anyone eat one with such confidence and skill. props my man.
I’m going to Japan for three weeks in two days!!! 🤗
How was it? Any recommendations? And where did you go in what order and why because im planning on going with my friend and im trying to find ideas and inspo!! Any help would be great!!

Tonkatsu desu! It's the Japanese equivalent to Schnitzel. How can anyone dislike this?!
Knorkrax The name sounds like a weeb named it
Vegans.
Reminds me of pork cutlets which I very much dislike
Nikki R thats exactly what it is
....dont say desu...
Always exciting to be on these adventures. Even if not there in person. Thank you Mike.
