      Duru I second this! Also don't get a lot of marinated meats. They are a lot heavier so you won't be able to eat as much. Save that for last!

      You can't work out enough to work off eating like that. Mike is probably like a lot of competitive eaters, in that he eats like this only for the camera. I'm guessing his normal, every-day diet is pretty spartan.

      Emily Nelson Gen in San Jose is also pretty awful in terms of kbbq.. The meat quality is pretty bad. Yeah it's all you can eat, but when you don't Want to eat it because it's so tough/chewy it's not worth it.

    • @emilynelson6502
      @emilynelson6502 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thi Phan interesting.we just drove out to San Jose from SF to try it, but there was a 4 hour wait! F that. We ended up getting some mediocre ramen. Gen has great reviews, and it smells great inside, but it makes sense that their meat may not be the best quality. How else would they make money on a $21 all you can eat?

    • @ThiPhan-mi4xs
      @ThiPhan-mi4xs 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Emily Nelson really amazing authentic Ramen in San Jose - Kotetsu! Skip orenchi imo. It's not worth the wait.
      Amazing ayce hotpot in Fremont - little dipper shabu shabu! And they do individual pots.
      If you want kbbq that's Really good quality (but isn't ayce), try doni don and Han Sung. You'll end up REALLY full for about 60 for three people. I'm more of a quality over quantity person though and my family and I don't eat as much as him :)
      I've found that people that Love Gen haven't tried really Good kbbq before and are really into "getting their money's worth", but I'm not willing to waste the time, effort, money, or calories for a meal that isn't spectacular.

    I absolutely love watching you enjoy your food! I know this is the only chance that I'll ever have of seeing these places and the assortment of foods that you get to eat. It's like we're actually sitting across from you, you're eating and we're starving which is the only downside. I've tried Korean BBQ in Melbourne Australia and it was to die for, it was only a small place so if it's half as good as what you had today then I'm totally jealous, actually I am totally jealous 😉 I really wish I could try everything you show us, mostly😬, it would be an amazing experience but luck would have me watching you enjoy yourself and so you should😊 keep eating and I'll keep drooling 😀Thanks for sharing your experiences with us! 👍

    Amazing review. I'm so freakin' hungry now. Southern born and bread here in a small NC town. This would go over huge here. We have an outstanding Hibachi joint with very fresh meats, tons of seafood, etc. Southerners like their sauces. And their pork belly.
    Atlanta may be the closest I could come to a joint like Gen. Sizable Korean population down there. I know Joe Kwon from The Avett Brothers did a Korean culinary tour in the ATL with a Garden and Gun writer recently. Hmmm...
    Anyway. Great job and I love that you are passionate about what you eat!

    I'm korean and have always considered myself as a "bbq expert". And I gotta say Mikey knows exactly how to enjoy korean bbq. You guys can trust him at least when it comes to eating korean bbq. I can approve that. And so when you have a chance to have kbbq next time, just remind the way he eats in this video or watch it quick. That'll help as hell when you take advantage of your kbbq as much as you can.

    I'm sorry but Gen is like the McDonald's of KBBQs. It's a big chain that's ubiquitous but meat quality is suspect, so I'd hardly call it the "best." I'm surprised especially in somewhere like SF Bay Area that Mike would pick Gen when there are so many unique, more authentic options than that big chain. I really suspect this video was sponsored by Gen to market them.

      I went there last night. It is just mediocre at best comparing to the one that already was closed down last year. 1). meat quality is ok, but not great. Short rib and cajun shrimps were our favor. 2). You have to wait for more food, and our BBQ grill pan kept getting burnt. 3). Hot water ran out and they charge for hot tea. At the end, we still don't feel full. I doubt I will go back again.

KBBQ... only decent one is Road to Seoul in KTown Los Angeles. If you want awesome meat your better off going to a high end yakiniku restaurant and only good ones outside Japan are in LA. Sorry man.. no good Korean places in Bay area.. just come to LA.
