    If I can’t afford to treat myself to a $250 Michelin star meal, I want to watch you treat yourself and describe everything so poetically. And I love if the chopsticks aren’t working with you, that you just pick up a spoon without stressing about it. Goals. You are there to taste and enjoy the food, not put on a show. You are so good at explaining what you’re eating, without being a hyper-rejective critic.

    Hey Mike, I don't usually comment on your videos, but I just wanted to say thank you for existing and for bringing the love you have for food to us all. For every bit of success that you have attained, you have paid it back tenfold through your hard work, courage to be yourself, and your unapologetic love for food (and personality). It's liberating to see someone so genuinely themselves, and the thought struck me today, "I want to be like this guy." I think that that is the true value of the content that you produce. You inspire people to be themselves and pursue what they love doing, and that is a great underlying message for your channel.
    I was in a dark place when I started watching your videos. Things have gotten better, but I am still struggling. I just wanted to personally thank you for cheering me up in my dark times, and making me forget my worries for a time. Food really does bring people together.
    Anyway, I don't want to make this comment too long. Cheers everyone and enjoy the video.

    I can never go to higher end tasting places like these because I have a shellfish allergy and they won't accommodate it, which makes perfect sense, but which keeps me from the opportunity that everyone else has to eat there. So I really appreciate the fact that you go and take us along and describe everything so well that I feel like I actually did eat there.

    I get that some of the food items/ components are somewhat expensive/ high end and imported, and that there is some artisan creativity in the way the dishes are done and the whole "food experience", but it is very hard for me to justify the price (that are available/ viewable on their website menus) with the portion sizes.

      I like to go to these places on special occasions. Usually on anniversaries. I know it's expensive and I would never have imagined going to these places growing up but it's really not an everyday kinda thing. And it certainly isn't meant to be filling. It's not the kind of food that hits the spot after a hard day or something that you can dig in and feel it fill up your soul. But the thing is, you really remember these places. The experience lingers in your mind even after years go by. I only go to these restaurants ONCE. I rarely ever go to the same fine dining place again even of I loved it. I think the experience and the memories of it are really worth it. I'd say start on the low end ($80 per meal ish) and if you enjoyed it, work yourself up. For something like a ten year anniversary, I'd gladly pay $300 each for a meal. With the insane costs of ingredients, the amount of staff they hire, and their crazy work hours, they don't really have a great profit margin in these places. A lot of them are just that passionate about what they do.

      I don't really have any special anniversaries to celebrate besides my birthday though too, so the sentiment really isn't there either, i'll treat myself to some very nice Sushi (which still doesn't cost nearly that much though using many of the same ingredients) or a nice Wagyu Steak, but that's still just more practical and appropriate to me.

      I think these sort of meals are meant to be an experience instead of just filling your stomach. Every dish gives you just enough to experience the flavors and textures that the chef is wanting to impart. You need to go into a meal like this with different expectations than your average restaurant. They are not trying to fill your stomach, they are trying to broaden your understanding of what food can be.

    • @lolilollolilol7773
      @lolilollolilol7773 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Also normally, after a tasting menu, you are not supposed to be hungry. Typically, there are 12-14 courses, so even if they are all one bite, that should be enough to fill you up. Some tasting menus have less courses (around 7), but the bites are commensurate to the number of courses.

      Hear, hear. I agree. He tried recently to appease the masses by going to less expensive places in Korea, but you could tell quite obviously that any appreciation he could muster was feigned, disingenuous, empty. They say 'You can't keep them on the farm once they've seen Paree (Paris)." The thing is, "the farm" is what's real, and in this metaphor, "Paree" is not just fake, it's cruel, in many ways beyond the cruelty of foie gras, that many others here have pointed out.

      He's 'unbelievably' biased in the vast majority of videos, especially those that involve Asian cuisine. It's night and day compared to how he reacts to Western food and even Asian food in the US. That and he almost never gives prices or information on things unless it's dirt cheap or surface level, which doesn't help with trying to sell experiences (which a food and travel channel SHOULD be doing.) It's gotten a lot worse in the last few years. Just look at all the time chili oil is added to something. It's not that chili oil just makes everything better automatically (it does make a lot of stuff tasty) it's that the food it's being added to is usually either bland or really crappy and it helps to save face. He's even ran out of descriptors for foods.

      @@Valanway Well said!!! I wonder if another reason he uses chilie oil so much is to inadvertently push his own brand of chilie oil. I have also noticed the unbalanced favoritism with Asian food and restaurants reviews. I enjoyed your take on how he has changed as well.

      @@daviddavis3134 I think that his channel is mostly on Asian food because that's what he knows best. He probably feels unqualified to judge some upscale western food, that's all. Besides, there are hundreds of other food channels dedicated to western food. And yes asian food in Asia is often (not always, but often) better than in the West, which is completely normal.

    It's wonderful to see Mikey getting just as much enjoyment from seafood plates as he always does from pork, beef, and chicken. He has come a long ways with his palette. Both restaurant's dishes looked beautifully prepared and delicious to the eyes. Excellent job, as always!

      @@Busybeeee you are incorrect Foie Gras is either duck or goose liver and they are either forced fed "duck twice a day for 12 days and goose 3 times a day for 17 days I might have them backwards and sometimes they do it naturally without being force fed.
