It makes me so happy that you have someone to share your adventures with! Christine is such a sweetheart and she seems like she’s on the same wavelength as you.
Daruma is owned by my mother’s friend! I live down the street from it and I can CONFIRM that it is one of the best Japanese restaurants in Chicago. And who would’ve known, I work at Kitakata Ramen and WAS THERE when Mike came in :) Thanks for stopping by Schaumburg!!! Next time you’re here, try Chicago Ramen in Des Plaines, it’s one of my favorite ramen places in the Chicago area. 🍜
I'm at Kitakata often and all I could think is.. great the wait is gonna be insane now! Lol last time he was at SGD, and the day after, we waited 30 min for our food (still delicious. Still worth it. But wow the influence!!)
haha kitakata looks good, i never went in but i DID have to go to that pawn shop once. oops. i used to work right down the street and live there too. so much good food in that area
He definitely found his soulmate! It makes me so happy, she loves food as much as he does and she seems very nice and kind. I'm so glad that they found each other!
To Mikey: I’ve struggled with eating for years, the texture of food and things. But, your videos for the last 6 years have really made eating so much easier. Thanks 😊
@@hillerychan9483 don’t know how that is funny?? But I have an eating disorder and it’s always been hard to eat…then I found his videos, on days I struggle there is always his videos…
@@janetseidlitz5976 I usually try to try new things, but some days I just revert back to what I love…it’s not as easy as just adding cheese…it’s a legit eating disorder.. 😂 that’s why I was thankful for his videos for the last almost 6 years
Now we know where Christine got her eating prowess from! For a grandpa and grandma to be able to bulldoze their way through a buffet is rare. Even my parents can't do that! :O
I almost saw a tear of admiration drop out of Mikey's eyes when Christina said...she could eat about five, so she could get her money's worth! Now that's love!🤗🤤 I think they would be rolling me out of that All You Can Eat place. Everything looks so good, I don't even like coconut, but I want to eat some of that cake...lol!🤤🤤😁
11:10 Christine is pretty. I'm glad you're together and everything's going very well with your relationship Mike. Also with her parents and now with her grandparents. Hope someday you'll show her eating beside you soon. Stay safe you guys.
Mikey, I'm from Arlington Hts. Illinois and when I was growing up there were no Asian restaurants like this... It's amazing that it has developed into a culture center.
As a Wisconsinite seeing you enjoying Culver's is a big highlight and definitely makes this one of my favorite videos, next time you come make sure you get the cheese curds and a Wisconsin cheddar melt!
Mikey, as a Milwaukeean, I want you to know how much I appreciate these Chicago visits you do! My soul lights up knowing that I can also go to these amazing places🤩 I am so grateful that you do what you do, and you’ll forever find a fan in me! Thank you!
I live in Chicago and Texas so I love when he visits Chicago and am so happy he moved to Texas where I think all the best food is, especially Asian food but you gotta know where to go! I too get so excited when I know I am able to go somewhere that’s Mike approved lol
Oh wow your first Culvers? Glad you liked it so much. Their Cheese curds are great too. Crunchy coating but the inside gooey but also still squeaky. And great decision getting the custard and the Chicken. Honestly lot of their menu is great. Even the dinner plates. I personally love their soups too.
Now that's what I call a buffet. The burger and that steak looked so delicious, I could almost taste them. What made me laugh was the melted butter never seemed to diminish. Great videos keep up the good work.
As usual Mikey knocks it’s out of the ball park!!! Absolutely amazing as always!!! If I’m not hungry or craving something specific after you’re video’s then there is something seriously wrong!!! lol I always am though!!! Thank you for all the wonderfully awesome videos Mike!!!! 👍👏
Your videos are always awesome mikey! Funny calling you Mikey because that's my husband's name! I told him about this delicious looking all you can eat crab, filet, and burgers! Now we are planning our next stop!
When Mikey recommends us to get the spiciest, best prepare yourself on what you are getting in to because we don’t have the same spice tolerance as him 😂
The food at the CrabCellar looks so incredibly good.I just wish if I was able to go there that I could eat like you do.I don’t know how you do it.Thanks for all of the great entertainment.
Mikey dipped everything in the sauce lol. I am hungry watching you eat. I will drive to Chicago one of this day to eat there, and I am from Minneapolis.
I have never been jealous of all your videos but this one is the exception. Oh mannnn steak and king crabs plus spicy garlic butter OMG heaven :') I wish I could dine there someday
I started watching this video with no expectations to see Mikey in a Culvers drive thru. I'd never thought of it before, but 'In-and-Out of the Midwest' is pretty apropos; although the Culvers up my street absolutely slays In-and-Out IMO.
I genuinely did not know places like these existed, I'm going to look to see if Orlando has any of these focused on lobster or crab. Mikey thank you so much for your channel and everything you do. Thanks to you I decided to start following my dream as well and show everyone all the amazing places to eat in Orlando FL next to Disney World, the most magical place on earth. I want to show people all the best places to eat that are not touristy so people have a major list of places when they come visit or heck even if they live here. However looking for a crab restaurant is going to have to wait since currently I am in Dubai and will be showing off a few places there. 🙂 I hope Latin Chopsticks keeps growing and that one day we can sit down and have a meal together man. Seriously thank you for helping me get through these past 18 months. Be safe and keep on eating bud 😄
You just reminded me how horrible our off Disney experiences were back in 1996. We ended up at an IHOP and I don't eat breakfast foods. The internet has made travel so much better. Good luck!
@@staceyn2541 Thank you, there are def a lot of places that are not well know to anyone visiting thus I’m trying to do the trial and error to help as much as I can :) Thank you checking the channel out. I’m learning as I go so hope things keep improving on what gets put out.
As a Wisconsin gal you just made my day by getting some Culver’s and talking about it on your channel. Their chicken tenders and cheese curds are the best plus the custard is the bomb. Love your personality.
100% this. The frozen custard is pretty good but the cheese curds are the reason to go to Culver's. I wish Culver's would start serving breakfast, I bet they would do it really well
I learned about the Crab Cellar about a year or so ago. I still haven't been thanks to Covid, but I am so glad you tried it and did a video. You the real MVP Mikey!!!
i love how you say "i'm just going to put a little bit of butter here" while you are plunging the whole garlic bread into the butter cup and getting it soaked up. :)
Real question for you. Is it awkward filming a food review video while sitting with friends or family? I can imagine that it would be an adjustment for those who have never experienced that type of interaction before.
My son just got diagnosed with juvenile diabetes, I'm going to order some of magic spoon for him so he can still enjoy cereal but in the healthiest way possible!
A wild Christine reflection has appeared. I love that she has been around so much for the vides. I would like to see her more active in them besides a disembodied voice but that is a choice for her and Mike.
I dont get why everyone is so obsessed with you revealing things in your private life. I truly enjoyed this ! So glad u got to explore a little those burgers do look so good!
I can attest to that rising price in red king crab legs. I work in for seafood processing company in Alaska and the fishing ground for red king crab is closed this year (with exception to fishing boats that went and caught a small amount for government researching purposes). Each year we normally get atleast 500k to a 1 million quota on red king, but this year due to the closed fishing on red king, only got a small 30k delivery. I feel like that caused a chain reaction and the price of all crab (golden king, opilio, bairdi, dungeness) is probably gonna go up as well.

Never give up trying new foods. Sometimes just adding cheese or cooking it a different way helps.

omg the coconut cake. I want one right now. thank you for making me happy with your content :)
Gotta say the way you held that burger in the beginning of the vid really grinds my gears
"5 steaks, you gotta get your money's worth"
Never let her go mike hahah
Your videos are always awesome mikey! Funny calling you Mikey because that's my husband's name!
I told him about this delicious looking all you can eat crab, filet, and burgers! Now we are planning our next stop!
OMG this episode was amazing all the food looked so delicious!
Hey Mike, after watching this, I booked a flight just to eat at the crab cellar, hope my experience is as good as yours
When Mikey recommends us to get the spiciest, best prepare yourself on what you are getting in to because we don’t have the same spice tolerance as him 😂
This is factual
Christina helping with the burger shots is the kind of love I need 😩🥰
The food at the CrabCellar looks so incredibly good.I just wish if I was able to go there that I could eat like you do.I don’t know how you do it.Thanks for all of the great entertainment.
I want to travel there from Australia just for the CrabCellar alone. That was so cheap and looked absolutely amazing
omg just the right timing since im actually searching for a new vid to watch while eating aaaaaaaa
I do the same 🤣 I watch Mikey's videos during my lunch break at work
I cracked up when you said “its like tasting Morgan Freeman’s voice”, hahahhhahahaha, omg, where do you come up with this stuff. you are so funny. :-D
“It’s like tasting Morgan Freeman’s voice”
LOL have my dying!
More than accurate though. The chocolate concrete from Culver's might have been Morgan Freeman's voice coach (I love mine with fresh raspberries)
👍 Yep. Mikey is a wizard with words.
Classic !
Congrats to you and Christine...love and happiness for many decades to come
The Midwestern soul I have was screaming "LET'S GO" when you went to Culver's. Happy you enjoyed it!
Isn't Culver's amazing?! And that all-you-can-eat Crab, Filet Mignon, AND Burgers puts it over the top. This is incredible!!👍👍
As a Wisconsin native, my heart stopped when I saw you at Culvers. I've never wanted you to like something more. Glad you loved it.
Sweet thing song was on when you were describing that toasty burger. Perfect song for that burger. So cool and good timing.
The way you held the burger from Culver's in the beginning was probably the most disturbing thing I've seen from you, mikey.
he was holding the camera with the other hand lol
gotta film it somehow!!
He legit holds all sandwiches so weirdly. I notice it every time.
I’ve always notice that even on other videos his way of holding a sandwich or burger is terrifying 😅😅
Wow amazing food, delicious, tasty 😋. Got a glimpse of Christine in the.back mirror. 😀👍🏻
We got a surprise shot of Christine at the AYCE dinner in the mirror?!😍
Haha Ikr I was surprised as well
Yes, she's adorable! Mike, you are doubly blessed.

Are we not gonna talk about the concern in Mike’s face when the siren went off 😂 I was like stop filming and run 21:25
You've officially made my favorite food comment ever: "It's like tasting Morgan Freeman's voice." You, once again, are pure gold.
That buffet: "We have plenty of King Crabs!"
Mikey: "Time to go Pacman mode...Num Num Num." (:V)
That buffet: "Let's put the buffet on hold." loll. 🤣😂
If you ever go to Culver's again, you should get some cheese curds
100% this. The frozen custard is pretty good but the cheese curds are the reason to go to Culver's. I wish Culver's would start serving breakfast, I bet they would do it really well
Was very disappointed to not see those! I haven't ever had a bad meal there, but the curds are the only must-get item for me.
YES!!
Yes my dude. It's not a Culvers run without the curds. BTW Oct 15 they're having a one day Curderburger. A giant cheesecurd topped burger!
Their root beer is da bomb too. Burgers r good, but more beef is needed
My mouth is watering as I watch you eat at the Crab Cellar!
When she said she would eat 5 steaks I knew she was perfect for him lol 😂 the love of food brings people together
