I hate it when people say they hate Mark's enthusiastic eating face (and yes everyone is entitled to their opinion #triggered). That eating face is absolutely the reason I love to watch Mark, it's his beautiful enthralling personality, knowledge and love of food that got him to the following he has now! You go Mark I love all your videos!!
DUDE! Micah is so big now. Making noises and shaking his head. Its like watching a nephew grow up from afar. I'm so proud of you and Ying for being the parents you are.
I love how enthusiastic he is when he eats and how he doesn’t rate the business. He’s so positive, infectious and such a amazing person. Which I love and Micah is adorable
How wonderful it was to see Mark and his son Micha sharing his ice treat, just puts a special little touch of bondship between father and son. He is a gorgeous little boy. All the best from Australia
Stan Moody so true I was thinking the same. Mika think shaking his head and smile mean good just like his daddy on all the food he eats even if it’s not good.
Micah is so precious!!! I can’t get over how cute he is. It was sweet to watch how intently he focused on his father eating the shaved ice. Very beautiful moment.
as a food lover, i love your videos man. they're fantastic - you have such a positive attitude and the production quality/spots you visit are second to none. that interaction between you and micah with the shaved ice was precious. keep up the great work!
My son and I repeated your food tour. My favorite was Alicia's roast pork belly... We went back twice. Pig crack. A pound was eaten in the car before we got a mile away every time.
Enjukoi ... some people just like to throw junk and insult others.... negative attention... it crosses the line when sickos & weirdos like "straycat 888" attack a young toddler... the world is going downhill
For all you visitors watching this and planning to visit Oahu, I'll give a short list of places to eat on the way from the airport to Waikiki. Alicia's Market is a favorite of mine. Been going there for over 30 years and it's still good because of the owners. Me and my son just ate there yesterday. FYI there's no seating here. Take out and go find a nice shady spot to eat. Ethel's Grill is down the road literally a couple minutes away, on Kalihi St. A small Japanese type diner that serves local and Japanese food. Very good and it gets very busy especially around breakfast and lunch times. A few more minutes down the road on Kalani St is Kamehameha Bakery. In my opinion the best bakery on Oahu. The poi donut is a favorite there but everything is very good. In the same strip mall is a few more good places. Young's Fish Market has good authentic Hawaiian food. Not like the nasty stuff they serve at the tourist luau. Sugoi is a few doors down and their specialty is garlic fried chicken. Take a short detour but still in Kalihi is The Original Pancake House. Very good breakfast. Up the road a little further is Helena's Hawaiian Food. Another good authentic Hawaiian food place. For shave ice, Waiola Shave Ice is just outside of Waikiki in an area called McCully. Waiola Shave Ice is on Waiola St. Another very good shave ice place is Uncle Clay's House of Pure Aloha. It's in Aina Haina Shopping Center on the way to the blow hole or Hanauma Bay. They make all their own natural syrups and use fresh fruits as toppings. A little on the pricey for shave ice, but it's like gourmet shave ice and hey, you're in Hawaii so why not. Matsumoto Shave Ice in Haleiwa is way over rated and very crowded. It's become just another tourist destination. If you're driving around the island, you'll be driving right past Papaole's in a small strip mall in Hauula off of Kamehameha Hwy. It's a must stop but closed on Wednesdays I believe. Also on Kamehameha Hwy but in Kahaluu is Waiahole Poi Factory. Another authentic Hawaiian food spot. It's just a little reddish shack on the side of the road so be on the lookout or you'll fly right past it. Yes there are tons of other good places to eat but like I said, this is just a short list of places with easy access and not too far off the beaten path.
I appreciate and absolutely adore how much this man enjoys the food that he eats and also how passionate he is about sharing it with his viewers and being so joyful about his experiences. It truly makes me smile. Thank you so much, I hope that you are so happy and feel the joy that you make me feel!
@Jason kinda slow lol! She was cute/Tanni oh ok!! Got it mahalo! I understand now 👍 Cause you got turkeys on utube making stupid comments. You didn't mean the Baby Micah TY!!
The joy on Mark's face is so contagious. I find myself smiling whenever he gets excited about a place or the food. Oh, and this is hard to watch when you're fasting.
Mark, I enjoy watching your enthusiasm and positivity as you eat each bite. I want to sit beside you and taste all that you have. Thank you for sharing!
It would be great if you did a summary of the day at the end of the video and ask your wife as well what place and which food did she think tasted best.
It’s interesting watching this.. my mom is always making white rice with hamburger Patties and gravy never an egg on top and also loves making spam and eggs! I asked her if she had ever been to Hawaii and she said when she was a little kid my gpa was stationed there for a little while but she was like 4 yo..... crazy how these things stick with you
Kitty that’s a little mean. Some people just have a fast metabolism. How can you be sure he has an eating disorder? People thought I had one too until I was diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery syndrome. He is probably just thin. My husband was this way in his twenties and he ate literally everything!
Mark Wiens is a world class foodie. The joy and appreciation he shows for the food is equal to the respect he gives to different cultures globally. Awesome food host.
Aloha and welcome to Hawaii. I love that you are featuring local hole in the wall food places. Micah and Ying are so adorable and glad that they are being featured more and more than just being in the background. Love seeing Micah's expression as you are sharing your food with him. Would love seeing Ying's comments on the food too. Been following you for years vicariously enjoying the food you enjoy. You gotta try the new Ono's Hawaiian Food, under new ownership and also Pig and the Lady for fusion upscale vietnamese cuisine. Keep up the good work and good eating.
For everyone planning on visiting I was here Feb 19/2019. The original Alicia's Market has burned down :(. Fortunately, no injuries in the fire. They now run a little "express" shop right next to the old one and just sell Poke. Unsure as to when they will be re-opened. The person there mentioned they will be at the same original location.
I'm from Hawaii and I absolutely love your videos! Also you have such a cute family, loved it when your wife was laughing and Micah smiled at her, such a happy baby!🌺
Stormie Weather yay 😁!! I was supposed to travel this year. And was going to make videos of food when I’m traveling. But sucks what has happened to the world. Have to wait for a while! But this is on my list!!
I have to go try Alicia’s Market when I go back in May. I’ve heard of this place before but never got a chance to go. But after this video. I have to try! Thanks for another awesome video!
Whenever you guys return, check out Nico's & Uncle's Restaurant's at Pier 38, Taniokas Market in Waipahu & Poke Stops various locations....Just to name a FEW!
Never seen such a beautiful food-vlog of Hawaii before...just amazing :) thanks Love for "Junior Mr.Wiens" from Kolkata,India...he must be enjoying these
I lived in Hawaii from age 4-9 and it's one of the most memorable places I lived. My dad and step father are both military so I have moved quite a bit in my life, and my most favorite memories are from living in Oahu. I wish it was more affordable for people to visit or live there since it's such a beauty. I would climb palm trees, swim all the time, ran around barefoot everywhere, and just spent so much time outside since it just seemed to be always gorgeous. Even when it rained, I was still outside. I didn't get to try too much local food since I was a kid and my mom was super picky lol, but my favorite foods come from Hawaii. Meat jun, spam musubi, fried lobster rolls from this place in the mall, malasadas from the food truck at some mall (again I was a kid so my memory is foggy lol), and Kahlua pork. I could eat Kahlua pork with a bunch of cabbage and rice every day. Oahu holds some of my most favorite memories and I hope I can go back one day and take my kids and husband to experience the same joy I had. I'll definitely have to try some of these places you went to!
That was totally Lenard’s Malasadas from Waikele shopping center!! Kalua Pig is the main event in many dishes but Kahlua is like a coffee tasting liquor 😉
Mica has been watching you give reaction every time you eat something , that has infused into him too.. Mica's reaction was the highlight of this vlog :D :D
Micah always warms the heart 😁. I love your food adventures. I personally believe in peace through food. I love learning about all the different cultures that textbooks dont give you.
There’s truly no place like home 🏝 So glad you ate at all the local favorites! I also appreciate how you pronounced everything correctly 😊 For other authentic poké spots in Honolulu: - Ono Seafood - Fresh Catch - Tamura’s - Yama’s Fish Market - Off the Hook Poke Market There are many great spots, more but these are popular amongst the locals.
I was happy to see Alicia's Market. and I agree about Ono Seafood! I miss them both so much. The haole poke we get (look up Aloha Poke) on the mainland has driven me to make my own and Ono's Google maps pics are my guide. Today I'm going to eat a pound of ahi!
I absolutely love watching Mark when he's in Hawaii. I first start watching Mark's videos by per happenstance. I was looking up Hawaiian food to cook at home. After watching a few videos, Mark's video on authentic Hawiian food came up in the thread. I watched him and his grandmother enjoy their meal at a cafeteria style restaurant. I was hooked! I think he won me over because of how wonderful his personality came across through the video and his endearing interaction with his cute as pie grandma, that was the cherry on top! Every time Mark is in Hawaii, I'm always reminded of that first random, wonderful video. 😊😊😊
Whenever we eat something delicious we say, "mmm so ono". Japanese locals eat slimy eggs over rice. Hawaiians don't. And we don't eat hamburgers for breakfast🙄.
@@onomanapua probably just you because I and a lot of people eat burgers for breakfast. Some prefer eggs and bacon, some prefer fruits and some just want to eat a burger for breakfast. Also not everybody says mmm ono
Hey mark. I am a huge fan of your channel. I just realized much of your food journey is so unique and awsome. Maybe if you could attach a map link to your food destinations so people can really follow the shops......just an idea
The look on your face when u bit into that drumstick lol.. piping hot and running down your chin.. your expressions are priceless and the reason why u r my favourite food vlogger
Big fan Mark. I’m from Honolulu and love all your videos. Along with the great food it’s nice to see the many smiles and happiness you bring to the people you meet around the world. Keep spreading your love, friendship, and happiness. Aloha. 🤙🏼
This is one of my most favorite episodes! Your son looking up at you and smiling - around the 22 minute mark - is adorable. Another comment: I come from Guam and we like very spicy food there. But watching you eat spoonfuls of small, red chili peppers -- wow! Happy New Year to you and your family.
Aww I’m so happy you pronounced everything pretty good I’m impressed! All the vloggers that come to Hawaii trip me out sometimes lol. Glad you enjoy our island so much💜
Hawaiian food is HEAVY. Went there in November 2019 (best time to go!! Not as many tourists) and had all the musts-haves: spam masubi, shaved ice, Loco moco and lots of macaroni salad, katsu pork and chicken and all the poke I could eat. I can't wait to go back. Definitely my favorite place in the world so far!! Went all around Oahu and Maui. We did the popular local spots and also tried the random poke spot in run-down Oahu strip malls. I think I went to a few of these spots actually, Alicia's but they were out of poke at that moment (sold out!). I can't wait to go back for real!! I am going to move there for sure.
You can buy an acre or two here on Big Island for really cheap depending on where you want to live, besides we got the best poke since our part of the ocean is actually pure, no nuclear dumping out here…
I find it too interesting to watch this video and read people's comments, like yours, I feel that this represents a large-scale exchange of culture, since gastronomy is a very good way of interacting with each other, as we do right now.
Thank you for sharing part of your childhood memories with us. Micah and Ying are so beautiful. Micah is such a comedian pretending not to like the shave ice.
Can you imagine walking into your favourite childhood stores and being recognized for being famous? Twice! I got a little choked up.
I could only imagine man I Love Hawaiian food I'm Samoan we share similar recipes but Hawaiian food is more modernized lol
I hate it when people say they hate Mark's enthusiastic eating face (and yes everyone is entitled to their opinion #triggered). That eating face is absolutely the reason I love to watch Mark, it's his beautiful enthralling personality, knowledge and love of food that got him to the following he has now!

Same here I just love his expression when he tastes food .
I agreed. His eating face is funny, interesting, and it tells us which food is the best. :)
"oh woaw"
agree! my 5 yr old son imitates him (he closes his eyes if he likes the food) 😂 and he'll say "just like Mark Wiens"
Yep, I love his eating face
DUDE! Micah is so big now. Making noises and shaking his head. Its like watching a nephew grow up from afar. I'm so proud of you and Ying for being the parents you are.
@@kittycoco20 I mean people can have opinions but you have taken it too far m8
@@kittycoco20 ?
They are awesome parents taking Micah with them everywhere. Best wishes to you Keith from Mark's biggest fan in Norway.
I love how enthusiastic he is when he eats and how he doesn’t rate the business. He’s so positive, infectious and such a amazing person. Which I love and Micah is adorable
Little Micah is such a lucky boy. He's literally eating around the world since he was born! All thanks to Daddy! 😄
@Ibnkush Kush He's a boy
Ibnkush Kush micah is a boy
Micah is a boy

Hi

Although he wont remember cause hes too young but he will have the video memories!!
Micah's reaction is so cute! I love watching him in your videos.
Finally see Micah tasting someting with Mark. He is so adorable ❤️❤️❤️
How wonderful it was to see Mark and his son Micha sharing his ice treat, just puts a special little touch of bondship between father and son. He is a gorgeous little boy. All the best from Australia
Yup! Best part of the video. I love seeing his family!
I like how he said “I bought more food then anticipated, but I’m perfectly ok with that” ain’t that us all
Micha is gonna bring a new dimension to this channel once he can express his true love of food like Mark. I can't wait!!
That shaved ice moment with your son was priceless!!!
I just have to say Micah eating that shave ice he's adorable . You just put the biggest smile on my face
Omg Micah has that head movement going on when he eats! SO DARN CUTE HE IS. ♡
Frizzy Mcgee ikr.
Watching you share your childhood favorites with Micah is so sweet and so pure.
Micah is so cute in his little Hawaiian shirt!!!
Kym Tantongco I love asian girl muwah love u

I can give you your own little mica
Micah is one TOUGH critic...
Micah is so cute and funny!
The way Mark's face lights up when he eats is how I wish my husband would look at me😩😂
Call me♥️
Denise Bradley shut the F UP...simp😂
😂👏🏽
Lol
Yes n the moment he tilts his head to right means he has liked the food. That’s kinda cute ☺️
LMAO 1:40 “Yeah the coffee is pretty weak, but it is free coffee” LMAOOOO same mark.. same 😂
Beans And Greens when life gives you coffee you drink it without hesitation
22:06 when Micah looks at his dad eat is everything soooooo cuteeeeee
Cutest baby ever. Seriously.
He shakes his head just like dady does when he takes a bite🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻

That is my favorite too because I missed eating it during this pandemic.
So cool 😎
Your son Micah is too cute! A very happy toddler ... good job
Eric D it's a transgender you idiot
straycat 888 what do you mean?
straycat 888 I don't think Micah's transgender.
Enjukoi ... some people just like to throw junk and insult others.... negative attention... it crosses the line when sickos & weirdos like "straycat 888" attack a young toddler... the world is going downhill
I love how Micah does the head shake just like his dad when the food is good😂
Micah got his own facial expression when he liked the food,😂😂😂.
And it's kinda amusing how Mark laughed
(SWEET YAY)
Hajir J. I hate his facial expression when he likes the food
Yusof Iman respect you're opinion bro, we cannot pls. Every one just saying. But for me it's really ok
Yusof Iman same to you
Haha
I just love Ying s laugh. It’s so pleasant and delightful to hear!
Who ever loves it too?
OMG Micah is getting bigger and cuter each day!!! His expression after eating the shaved ice is just insanely cute!!
For all you visitors watching this and planning to visit Oahu, I'll give a short list of places to eat on the way from the airport to Waikiki.
Alicia's Market is a favorite of mine. Been going there for over 30 years and it's still good because of the owners. Me and my son just ate there yesterday. FYI there's no seating here. Take out and go find a nice shady spot to eat.
Ethel's Grill is down the road literally a couple minutes away, on Kalihi St. A small Japanese type diner that serves local and Japanese food. Very good and it gets very busy especially around breakfast and lunch times.
A few more minutes down the road on Kalani St is Kamehameha Bakery. In my opinion the best bakery on Oahu. The poi donut is a favorite there but everything is very good. In the same strip mall is a few more good places. Young's Fish Market has good authentic Hawaiian food. Not like the nasty stuff they serve at the tourist luau. Sugoi is a few doors down and their specialty is garlic fried chicken.
Take a short detour but still in Kalihi is The Original Pancake House. Very good breakfast. Up the road a little further is Helena's Hawaiian Food. Another good authentic Hawaiian food place.
For shave ice, Waiola Shave Ice is just outside of Waikiki in an area called McCully. Waiola Shave Ice is on Waiola St. Another very good shave ice place is Uncle Clay's House of Pure Aloha. It's in Aina Haina Shopping Center on the way to the blow hole or Hanauma Bay. They make all their own natural syrups and use fresh fruits as toppings. A little on the pricey for shave ice, but it's like gourmet shave ice and hey, you're in Hawaii so why not. Matsumoto Shave Ice in Haleiwa is way over rated and very crowded. It's become just another tourist destination.
If you're driving around the island, you'll be driving right past Papaole's in a small strip mall in Hauula off of Kamehameha Hwy. It's a must stop but closed on Wednesdays I believe. Also on Kamehameha Hwy but in Kahaluu is Waiahole Poi Factory. Another authentic Hawaiian food spot.

Yes there are tons of other good places to eat but like I said, this is just a short list of places with easy access and not too far off the beaten path.
thank you for this!!
OMG THE ORIGINAL PANCAKE HOUSE I HAVENT EVEN EATEN THERE IN YEARS
How bout mitsu-ken,there breakfast plate is good
sound like you frm Kalihi or always eatin in that area
Kalihi is kinda far if you are in Waikiki or Ala Moana, Keeaumoku area
Guess it's Micahs turn to make us all happy 😄
I love how you immerse yourself in our culture. We love tourists who come and support local businesses
Koss there feet each tourist you see lmao
I appreciate and absolutely adore how much this man enjoys the food that he eats and also how passionate he is about sharing it with his viewers and being so joyful about his experiences. It truly makes me smile. Thank you so much, I hope that you are so happy and feel the joy that you make me feel!
Micah needs to have his own channel soon :D Oh Aloha to the Wiens family!
"Another bag of happiness" the most wholesome intro ever!!!!
I now know what type of husband I want, one like Mark Weins, always smiling, loves to travel and eat. Taking time out with family and friends♥️
Micah's so cute! ❤
U r also
Micah is a MALE KEIKI!!!!???
I agree... He's always a cutie !
BTW, I got a FAB Indian Street Food Channel , Which U all should enjoy so do Check me out :D
@Jason kinda slow lol! She was cute/Tanni oh ok!! Got it mahalo! I understand now 👍 Cause you got turkeys on utube making stupid comments. You didn't mean the Baby Micah TY!!
Not at all! Thanks for being humble!! 😉
Whenever Mark says food is “burning hot” he ALWAYS goes straight in for a bite lmaoo! Dedication.
Micah is the world's youngest food critic who already has a loyal following. When will his first book come out?
True True !!
Micah should come over and critic the Street Food I show on my channel too... !
Ooo
well done
So when he shakes his head that means yes rite he likes it?
He's definitely a well-traveled international baby.
The best part of following Mark:
Learning about food and culture and his facial expressions.
He is a very happy man with a very happy taste buds and that's what makes his heart pop keep Up the good work mark
Micah is one tough food critic! So cute!
I just can't get enough of Mark's reactions! they are so genuine and refreshing from this commercialized world.
The joy on Mark's face is so contagious. I find myself smiling whenever he gets excited about a place or the food. Oh, and this is hard to watch when you're fasting.
Mark, I enjoy watching your enthusiasm and positivity as you eat each bite. I want to sit beside you and taste all that you have. Thank you for sharing!
I absolutely adore when people recognize you! Mark deserves it all~
Estelle M YES.... all over the world‼️‼️‼️
Micah is growing fast! Adorable
I love the moment when you interacted with Micah
Micha is getting so big, and so very adorable!
It would be great if you did a summary of the day at the end of the video and ask your wife as well what place and which food did she think tasted best.
I love how Mark's background music relates to the area he's touring, I think it's awesome!
It’s interesting watching this.. my mom is always making white rice with hamburger
Patties and gravy never an egg on top and also loves making spam and eggs! I asked her if she had ever been to Hawaii and she said when she was a little kid my gpa was stationed there for a little while but she was like 4 yo..... crazy how these things stick with you
Pleasure memory is forever
That's really awesome! I agree, it's interesting how certain foods speak to our souls.
Great video. How many stomachs do you have?
Jeff Ward he's bulimic.
Kitty that’s a little mean. Some people just have a fast metabolism. How can you be sure he has an eating disorder? People thought I had one too until I was diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery syndrome.

Note to self:
Don't watch Mark's videos when hungry.

Isaaaa trap
I just finished eating, and I'm hungry again watching his videos 😂
The problem with me is even when I am full I still become hungry
Me too watches his videos just to work out an appetite. Ha ha, I love his vids
I'm watching when I'm hungry
And I forgot to eat...
Mark is like a superstar now. Everybody knows him😉😀
Yup and am reaching there in a few years too !!

- Off the Hook Poke Market

Every time Mark is in Hawaii, I'm always reminded of that first random, wonderful video. 😊😊😊
you know this guy is a genuine food lover when you can talk about ice for a solid 5 min lol. Good stuff mark
funny
The entire Alicia market knows mark wiens.. Awesome
I already watched this video a couple of times and his vlogs are incredibly mouth watering.
I always thought you were from Hawaii because when you eat good food you say “Hooo”😂🤙🏽
And he put da sriracha sauce on da mac salad
I believe he's half. Heard it on one of his videos.
Whenever we eat something delicious we say, "mmm so ono". Japanese locals eat slimy eggs over rice. Hawaiians don't. And we don't eat hamburgers for breakfast🙄.
@@onomanapua probably just you because I and a lot of people eat burgers for breakfast. Some prefer eggs and bacon, some prefer fruits and some just want to eat a burger for breakfast. Also not everybody says mmm ono
His mom is local Chinese from honolulu, dad haole
Hey mark. I am a huge fan of your channel. I just realized much of your food journey is so unique and awsome. Maybe if you could attach a map link to your food destinations so people can really follow the shops......just an idea
Damn I don't wanna sound corny but Mark's reactions are so genuine I love this guy pls go to Samoa Mark and try our foods one Love Brada lol
No corniness detected! I love his reactions too.
I love his reactions!!
Are we robots ? Or humans ?
The look on your face when u bit into that drumstick lol.. piping hot and running down your chin.. your expressions are priceless and the reason why u r my favourite food vlogger
We need Mark on Hot One's !!! Or First We Feast !
I think Mark is probably barred from Hot Ones. He'd put everyone to shame and probably bring his own hot sauce.
When you got back to Honolulu, you should visit Ramen Nakamura. The best ramen in Hawaii. Their Ox tail ramen is so delicious!
If you call it ramen in Hawaii you will be hated because its saimin
I LOVED how much you enjoyed the food at Alicia's, especially since the owners are fans! 😀
Big fan Mark. I’m from Honolulu and love all your videos. Along with the great food it’s nice to see the many smiles and happiness you bring to the people you meet around the world. Keep spreading your love, friendship, and happiness. Aloha. 🤙🏼
salsal103 Yes Mon‼️‼️ 🤙🏻🤙🏻‼️😴🌴🍲🍧🥢🍲🌴‼️
I've literally never been so happy before in my life before this video. ily.
This is one of my most favorite episodes! Your son looking up at you and smiling - around the 22 minute mark - is adorable. Another comment: I come from Guam and we like very spicy food there. But watching you eat spoonfuls of small, red chili peppers -- wow! Happy New Year to you and your family.
Aww I’m so happy you pronounced everything pretty good I’m impressed! All the vloggers that come to Hawaii trip me out sometimes lol. Glad you enjoy our island so much💜
Glad you love poi too hahah
Hawaiian food is HEAVY. Went there in November 2019 (best time to go!! Not as many tourists) and had all the musts-haves: spam masubi, shaved ice, Loco moco and lots of macaroni salad, katsu pork and chicken and all the poke I could eat. I can't wait to go back. Definitely my favorite place in the world so far!! Went all around Oahu and Maui. We did the popular local spots and also tried the random poke spot in run-down Oahu strip malls. I think I went to a few of these spots actually, Alicia's but they were out of poke at that moment (sold out!). I can't wait to go back for real!! I am going to move there for sure.
Wow 🙂
You can buy an acre or two here on Big Island for really cheap depending on where you want to live, besides we got the best poke since our part of the ocean is actually pure, no nuclear dumping out here…
I find it too interesting to watch this video and read people's comments, like yours, I feel that this represents a large-scale exchange of culture, since gastronomy is a very good way of interacting with each other, as we do right now.
Micah you're so adorable.. 😍😍
MICAH IS SOOOO CUTE :) Great vid as always Mark
Mark saying that coffee as weak was the first negative thing I’ve ever heard him say about food or drink, ever...
U could tell right away that it was nasty
Same as when Sonny/Will from food review says “Wow this is vinegary” you instantly know he hates it
Another classic one is “this is refreshing”
He normally says, "This is not my favorite." When he doesn't like something.
I notice Marc loves strong coffee.
Bad coffee is one thing Mark won't stand for.
Thank you for sharing part of your childhood memories with us. Micah and Ying are so beautiful. Micah is such a comedian pretending not to like the shave ice.
IKR? I thought when his mom laughed the first time when he shook his head, that made him keep on shaking it so he'd get laughs. Cute guy .
22:06 Micah’s adorable little smile at you!!!!❤️
That spicy tuna or ANY tuna is my greatest addiction 🌶🐟🤗
Awww your son is too cute...it's funny how he says no but keeps eating and laughing😍😂
Micah is the most adorable thing. keep making awesome videos mark!
:D
i think it's not a no...
micah's copying his dad..hahaha...so cute.
