Mikey Chen - I enjoy your videos You are so entertaining and I would appreciate it if you can tell me what restaurant I can go to for the crackling skinned roasted pig. I live in Brooklyn NY or I can go to Queens Thank You
Mikey Chen happy belated birthday and Christmas... I'm with you on the whole birthday thing... I don't really celebrate mine either... I'd rather be alone. Doing my own thing.. but I hope you enjoyed your day out.
I don’t usually comment and I just enjoy your videos immensely. But today it’s your birthday so I had to drop by and say Happy Birthday!!!! Keep the awesome videos coming!
Mike is just an overwhelmingly nice person. He really does great work on this channel. He is officially the number one celebrity I would like to meet and have a meal with. Keep posting videos and I'll keep watching.
I also stopped caring about my birthday when I turned like 33... the last time I did something special on my birthday I went out for Indian food with a good friend of mine... she yelled at me because I didn't tell her it was my birthday until we had already eaten, and I paid for us lol... keeping it secret and doing little things for yourself just feels way more satisfying at a certain point
@@lowrider3913 because she is a good friend that's why. If its my friends birthday of course i would want him to have a special birthday thats on my treat at least.. If she wasn't a good friend she wouldn't care that much
I do the same thing!!! My birthday is a "me day'.Sleep late.... Quiet...snuggling with dogs...watch dvds....send out for dinner(usually asian ...definately sushi). Relaxing!
Except he's very not lazy! He's such a hard worker, hustling from restaurant to restaurant, getting work done in between, and not to mention he said he works out 2-3 hours a day! It's so impressive and inspiring!
The reason you'd rather be alone and celebrate alone is because when you're on your job you're around people so much and it feels like a celebration everyday. So on your birthday you'd rather do the opposite, which is be alone and celebrate by yourself because that feels more different and better than everyday.
Happy belated bday Mikey,right before Christmas is my bday also. I have always been alone too, it has always been ok, my parents were always busy, then as I got older the time of year is busy for everyone. Anyway this ya was my 80th and I was sure there would be some recognition as 80 is a milestone? Anyway not only no, but everyone seemed to be out of town, so I really enjoyed celebrating birthday with you! Thank you so much and pecking duck is one of my favorites too. Hope you have many more.
Happy late birthday Mikey! Really appreciate you sharing this personal day!!! I think it's nice to have a day to yourself amongst the busy scheduling and your birthday is a perfect day to do it. I'll have to go get some Peking Duck soon as I'm just drooling while watching you eat that!
Mike, thank you for spending your birthday with us. That was sweet of you to let us tag along. I spend my birthday my self sometimes, and see nothing wrong with it. Who better to have as company than ourselves? BTW, that dessert tasting looked very appetizing.
happy birthday Mikey, great birthday tradition... I think I may have to start one of my own, I always feel a bit underwhelmed on my birthday and like I'd rather spend time with my own thoughts quietly. I look forward to a new year of videos.
Great video Mike. I LOVED that you gave your fans a great birthday present. I can relate about the birthday thing. I love just hanging out with my dogs on my birthday- which is today.
I’m with you, I hide out and avoid family, because every birthday I have had ends in drama that I have nothing to do with... mostly my folks fighting and siblings angry if I get a family meal when they all had huge parties. I say I’m booked for work. Course when you’re own mother forgets for three days it’s your birthday and no one else says anything you give up and make your own plans.
Owen Creed well that sucks man my family takes me to a restaurant and that’s it but it’s always quality over quantity and we enjoy it a lot I feel bad that you can’t enjoy that
Owen Creed I know how you feel about that,I was like that too when it came my own birthday as well as Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's I felt nothing good would have come from me being around them during those times and they would have made me hate my life more and made me regret ever going along with actually spending "quality time together" like we really "one" big happy family all the time when it's not ever true
Hey Mike, many of us are stuck here in the midwest and the closest Asian community with a lot of variety like Flushing in Queens is Chicago. Chicago has a historical Chinatown, but it also has other Asian communities. I know, I know, Chicago vs New York City. It would be great though to see you visit this part of the country and do some exploring and let us know if you find some great places to eat. Thanks.
Aww man, that is the sweetest, most wonderful thing you can do for your special day. Thank you so much for sharing your birthday. And no, it's not weird. I do it too so it can't possibly be weird, LOL. It's wonderful to treat yourself and celebrate your way.
I'm the same way. It took a while for family and friends to understand it, but eventually they just started leaving me alone on my birthday. Some people like parties and being social, I just want some time alone and to be able to do whatever I want, whenever I want. So, I get ya. Ps: You know when chen is knocking on the table after one bite, you know the stuff must taste divine.
Many people might not understand why one would pay hundreds of dollars to eat at a Michelin-starred restaurant, but the experience is incredible (I’ve never been disappointed, so far). As you said, they do something to your taste buds. The creativity of flavour combinations and juxtaposition of textures is mind-blowing.
receive a notification update from Mikey Chen - wake up and instantly feel hungry. Happy Birthday Mike! My birthday was literally yesterday, December 28th. I feel the same way about birthdays now...
Totally can relate when mike said about sharing Peking duck. I went on a school trip to china and I had to hold myself back from eating Peking duck for like 6 times AND IT IS NO FUN )-:
Happy belated birthday, Mike! You’re not the only one who celebrates their birthday like this so it’s not that weird. 😂 I usually quietly take the day off work without telling anyone at the office the reason and then do whatever I want for that day: no fuss, no obligations, just whatever feels right that day. 😀 Don’t get me wrong; I still celebrate with family over a weekend meal but I like to have the day to myself. 😬 Best wishes for the coming year, Mike! Happy New Year!
Totally know how you feel about your birthday Mikey my 21st is today (12/29) and I think you have the right idea for just going on your own to eat good food on your birthday.
Belated Happy Birthday! I'm a new viewer newly excited about Chinese cuisine because we finally got an authentic restaurant. I am in love with chili oil now. Best wishes!
When I'm celebrating my birthday, I really like to be alone. That's why my mom is just gaving me money and then I'm going to a store to buy a huge container of Ice cream just for myself 😂😂
I am so stealing your tradition, it sounds wonderful to not have to worry about gifts or coordinating hangouts and just have a 'you' day in the best way! Happy Birthday!
Absolutely not about peeing in my pants! I love in Alabama and enjoy watching it in the comfort of my home! Nice and warm, with a toilet within feet of me! On another note, Happy “late” Birthday! Love your videos!
Just wanted to say that you're one of my go to channels. Your genuine and honest enthusiasm for food is infectious. Best wishes. Looking forward to your content over the next year!
I'm born of the 1st of January 12:00 o'clock mid day so most of my friends are drunk as hell and nothing's open so I LOVE to celebrate my birthday the way you do, especially after new year's celebration - a bit slow down a bit chill and relaxed mostly only with my family cause I live in another town than them and I go for the holidays to my hometown where they are and I totally get what you mean by what you are doing ^_^
I've been watching you for years and have never commented. Since I can't eat the way you do for health reasons, I've been living vicariously through you and your videos. But since it was your birthday, I thought I might as well make it my first time commenting. Happy late birthday Mike! And may all your wishes come true for new year.
Hope in the future i will be able to treat myself so well on my birthday and have alone time but for now my mom loves birthay planning and i just cant get out of it 😧
The little clover on the mincemeat pie is sorrel. It has a beautiful lemony-herby flavor, and cuts through the heaviness and sugar of the nuts in mincemeat.
That crepe that wrapped the duck/Vegas/sauce is not original. That’s not what you will be served if you eat this fish in Beijing. Much smaller & totally different texture.
Ok your amazing! Taking your time to eat with some fans is so great! I'm from Toronto I really hope you come back soon. Love your videos keep up the great work!!
Happy birthday to you. Mike enjoy your foods did you eat all that plate of duck you can eat lots of it very good any time of day or night this street look very busy have your food good healthy food thank you for sharing very good video. Love your video thanks .
Wish you all a Happy New Year!!! Eat lots ok? :-)
Mikey Chen Mike are you still in Peru?
Happy Belated Birthday Mike🎂🎈😘
Happy belated birthday! On that day years back the hot oil king was born 😂😂

rewatching now and when he grabbed that food in the hotel 😬
I am rewatching in 2021!!! I love Mikey’s food adventures!!
Mike is just an overwhelmingly nice person. He really does great work on this channel. He is officially the number one celebrity I would like to meet and have a meal with. Keep posting videos and I'll keep watching.

4CZ because the birthday person paid
@@lowrider3913 because she is a good friend that's why. If its my friends birthday of course i would want him to have a special birthday thats on my treat at least.. If she wasn't a good friend she wouldn't care that much
I do the same thing!!!
My birthday is a "me day'.Sleep late.... Quiet...snuggling with dogs...watch dvds....send out for dinner(usually asian ...definately sushi). Relaxing!
"i love food and i'm lazy"
mikey, you and i are soulmates.
Except he's very not lazy! He's such a hard worker, hustling from restaurant to restaurant, getting work done in between, and not to mention he said he works out 2-3 hours a day! It's so impressive and inspiring!
Happy late birthday Mickey 👍🏻❤️
Thank you!!!
paulson thomas mickey😂😂
who else saw that little kid fall 12:57
Me
I didn't. Thank you.
Cryogenic Plays lmao what an idiot 😂😂😂😂
Hope you had a good birthday and you're not the only one who feels that way. I'm the same way anymore.
Happy birthday to the best food vlogger in the world
Oh Yeah!
AMEN
The ritzy place that needed a jacket...sounded like a food court
I love the fact that you try new things, even if it's high class but you don't pretend to know all about the fancy stuff
The reason you'd rather be alone and celebrate alone is because when you're on your job you're around people so much and it feels like a celebration everyday.

Happy belated birthday! That's for giving blessing us again with another video.

Clark and Virginia
Virginia Bradley better share with someone, right? He is all alone anyway 🤕🤕😵🤒
Happy late birthday Mikey! Really appreciate you sharing this personal day!!! I think it's nice to have a day to yourself amongst the busy scheduling and your birthday is a perfect day to do it. I'll have to go get some Peking Duck soon as I'm just drooling while watching you eat that!
Happy b-day and the kid who fell @ 12:56 lol😂
Abdul Baqi haha i was looking for this comment 😂
I LOVED your birthday food day! Everyone should learn to enjoy their own company & treat yourself!
"be careful of Elmo" lmao
Happy belated birthday, Mike!
Mike, thank you for spending your birthday with us. That was sweet of you to let us tag along. I spend my birthday my self sometimes, and see nothing wrong with it. Who better to have as company than ourselves? BTW, that dessert tasting looked very appetizing.
Birthdays are about you and what you enjoy. If you did what you enjoyed then it was a success
I can totally see myself doing this. Ordering a whole duck all for myself
Always a pleasure to watch, bro. Wish you the best in life and I too have a "TREAT YO SELF!" day.
Awesome video, shows that you're human .Loved that you made that couple's
day,month,year by having lunch with them.
happy birthday Mikey, great birthday tradition... I think I may have to start one of my own, I always feel a bit underwhelmed on my birthday and like I'd rather spend time with my own thoughts quietly. I look forward to a new year of videos.

Hi Mike. I thought I was the only one who buy a duck on my birthday. I eat half duck and really workout the next day.
Great video Mike. I LOVED that you gave your fans a great birthday present. I can relate about the birthday thing. I love just hanging out with my dogs on my birthday- which is today.

I'm Owen Creed on not celebrating my birthdays and the holiday's too with my "family"
I hope things get better, you deserve much better :)
Owen Creed Sounds like you also suffer from the birthday curse. Same here.

Happy Birthday Mike! The last time in London I had shredded Peking duck, it was one of the most delicious dishes I have ever had.
I'm the same way. It took a while for family and friends to understand it, but eventually they just started leaving me alone on my birthday. Some people like parties and being social, I just want some time alone and to be able to do whatever I want, whenever I want. So, I get ya.

Hey, Mike spends his birthday like me! Food and isolation!
OMG PEKING DUCK IS THE BEST!
Happy new year Mikey, how can you eat so much and not weigh 300 pounds
That mysterious "Asian" metabolism! Just like their inability to sweat! CURSE YOU ASIANS!!! D:!
He walks damn near everywhere. And works out all the time
Totally can relate when mike said about sharing Peking duck. I went on a school trip to china and I had to hold myself back from eating Peking duck for like 6 times AND IT IS NO FUN )-:
Reminds mr of an overseas learning journey(school trip)to Beijing China and I understand your pain

When I'm celebrating my birthday, I really like to be alone. That's why my mom is just gaving me money and then I'm going to a store to buy a huge container of Ice cream just for myself 😂😂
Mikey, you should probably either edit this video again or change your phone number because we can see your phone number in the video.
Happy birthday, I would of loved to have spent it with you ❤ your such a lovely man ☺

Happy birthday Mikey! Thanks for sharing it with us :)
I am so stealing your tradition, it sounds wonderful to not have to worry about gifts or coordinating hangouts and just have a 'you' day in the best way! Happy Birthday!
"With Satsuma mandarins."
"With what mandarin?"
"That is a type of orange."
Wow.
What no bathrooms yes there is I used quite a few just go in any food place order and bathroom there you go stores Macy's yes bathroom

I’m glad you had a great birthday Mikey chen
You should watch Black Mirror on Netflix.
Happy Birthday and thank you for sharing your day with us. 😘
I understand totally what u mean by celebrating your birthdays on your own...... 👍🏽
Happy Birthday fr.o.m. Sweden

a very happy belated birthday to you mike. many more. you did just the right thing to treat yourself to your own celebration!! yay! 🎂😀🥂♥️🌶🎂😀🥂♥️🌶
The little clover on the mincemeat pie is sorrel. It has a beautiful lemony-herby flavor, and cuts through the heaviness and sugar of the nuts in mincemeat.
Happy Birthday!
Happy birthday Mikey have a wonderful day with your food eat eat eat God bless you
Awesome, I thought I was weird for wanting to celebrate my birthday on my own!!!
That crepe that wrapped the duck/Vegas/sauce is not original. That’s not what you will be served if you eat this fish in Beijing. Much smaller & totally different texture.
can you came to greece mikey ?
Wow... At least you have some self control. I literally just shove Peking duck and rice in my mouth.
I normally sleep the whole day on my birthday .. relaxing .. or having body massage.
Hey! I think I live near you, this was the closest vlog that you ever did with your local restaurants. where do you live? whats good nearby?
Happy birthday!! you are the best
Ok your amazing! Taking your time to eat with some fans is so great! I'm from Toronto I really hope you come back soon. Love your videos keep up the great work!!
Happy Birthday! Did anyone tell you, You look like Jackie Chan
RJ Mjrz said he gets dat alot
And he hated it
Happy birthday to you. Mike enjoy your foods did you eat all that plate of duck you can eat lots of it very good any time of day or night this street look very busy have your food good healthy food thank you for sharing very good video. Love your video thanks .
Happy Birthday!
25:06 Mike sets out plates so everyone can have their own portion of food...guy immediately eats from the main plater.
