Minor correction: Most restaurants no longer source their fish from Tsukiji since the market itself moved to Toyosu. The larger shops also opened places in Toyosu, but it doesn't have the character of Tsukiji.
Lol, everyone running to Mikeys rescue. It's ok guys, we know he's human and can make mistakes. He doesn't need your crusade. That said if this is true you would expect the tour guide to correct him on that.
The little details like the cost of each thing don't go unnoticed by your viewers! Thank you for starting to put the prices of the things you're eating on there, hopefully each dish will have the price next to it eventually!
I’m here in front of the barista at turret and I showed him a screenshot of this video of you and the tour guides. He was so happy. He was like “ahhhh I remember them, thank you for coming!”
Here in New Zealand we use mackerel as fishing bait. When I went to Japan I was surprised to see it on many menus, but it quickly became one of my favourites. Such a delicious fish!
I just LOVE how you have come around to sushi and sashimi! Especially because you are always there, at the source of the magic! Thanks for the great content Mike.
I have no idea how you deal with all the jet lag from all your traveling. Here's to 2023 coming, and another year of me eating vicariously through you.
Been to tsukiji before, now that I’m in Japan and been living here for 6 months, will definitely try out those places again. Going to travel to Tokyo the end of the year. Oh boy can’t wait!
It was interesting to hear the proces of how bonito is dried. All of the tuna looks beautiful, and I weep every time I see you order a sashimi don (because I want one).
It's amazing how Mikey came around on raw stuff - absolutely hooked on the otoro now :D I'm same with the mackerel though really: it has such a nice flavour!
Contrary to popular belief: most sushi is not raw, but rather prepared for consumption by freezing, aging, salting, brining and marinating. Plus, each condiment is a preparation in and of itself: the sushi vinegar, soy sauce, wasabi and ginger are there for a reason beyond taste, they make the seemingly "raw" fish safer to consume.
Mikey, your food journey has come so far! I remember you didn't like sushi that much because you were staying away from raw fish, and you didn't drink coffee that much! Now you love both things!!
Really love seeing how you’re mine has changed And adapted, I use to watch your videos and you’d be soo hesitant about eating raw fish😂 you’re an inspiration to us all
I had a hard time getting used to the new people, but I then seen Mikey was having fun with the people and the experience. It truly makes my day when I get to see you having these experiences, thank you for letting all of us join you on these trips.
I just wanted to say "Thank you!". My very first Sakuraco box (December) came today. So, Christmas Day, I'll be drinking tea and trying delicious snacks, all thank to you.
When we visited, one of the amazing things that I noticed besides the food, was that with all that seafood out in the open, there were no flies and everything was so clean!
My lord these dishes look good (gimme the mackerel all day long!). So awesome that these two fellows could give you such an inside scoop. This market is absolutely on my bucket list.
For those unaware that the "Neon Green Wasbi" Is actually Horseradish with food coloring and that "real" wasabi is a much lighter green color and milder in flavor.
Is there anyone out there not knowing? the real wasabi is impossible to keep fresh and there are so so so many sushi places, the demand could never be met with the real one.
Mikey is very smart to stay out of new York this time of the year. This year huge snow storm hits up north badly. Many people died. Even down south is very cold with snow.
Damn it’s always so satisfying to watch this videos but also the music and production put into the video is so awesome, I love mike and strictly dumpling
Yeah, why aren’t they mentioned or tagged? I went back and listened to when he introduced the two tour guides and they don’t say a name but mention that they’re partnering with “______ Arigato Japan” and if you google “arigato japan food tour” I think that might take you to it?
@lymmea I'm allergic to all fish unfortunately. It sucks cause I grew up eating it and loved it so I had a taste for it, especially salmon. I didn't gain the allergy until I was 9. At least I still have shellfish lol. Mike makes not eating hard.
great stuff man!!!! you really made a turn around on sushi since when you started!! was wondering where and whats the name of the stall where you had the sushi bowl? planning to visit japan in a few months!

Mikey doesn't usually seem concerned with details. 😄
@@juncho1977 because he didn't know
@@blackmantis3130 he is extremely busy
Well said.

Cool, another Tsukiji visit!! With a guided tour no less! Awesome, thanks Mike 😄
*Happy Birthday Mike*
Hope you had a delicious day 😋

I’ve always loved the way breakfast is handled in Japan.
Who else is enjoying Tsukiji market seafood tour ☝️
Seafood lover is drooling literally
Ikr? You got that right!!
you have a link whit the food tour.
I can't wait to go back to Japan, until then these Japan videos are lifesaver~ Thanks and waiting for more to come!
I have no idea how you deal with all the jet lag from all your traveling. Here's to 2023 coming, and another year of me eating vicariously through you.
You could shave 1000 lemons and you still wouldn't have the zest for life this guy has. It's inspiring 🥰
😅
Lemons? No. Oranges?! YES.
Yeah but it would be good lemon chicken though.
I agree! Yes, he is amazing!
Lemonzest is disgusting. I hate how so many people use it. Why would i want wood shavings in my food?
Good lord how does Mikey eat so much? His head is expanding I don’t think it’s gonna stop.
Been to tsukiji before, now that I’m in Japan and been living here for 6 months, will definitely try out those places again. Going to travel to Tokyo the end of the year. Oh boy can’t wait!
The reason those cows were staring because of all their relatives Mike has eaten!🤣🤣

That run at the beginning looked GLORIOUS!

Thanks Mike.
Solid all the way around.....content....filming.....narration......all of it.
This style of tour with your own curated chef. What else could a viewer want in a food fantasy?
These AWSOME stalls probably serve the best! There is so much respect for the food

EVERYTHING LOOKS SO YUMMY & SATISFYING!!!

He is an amazing tour guy
Happy to see the Hachiko District guys starting a food tour company! I’ll definitely check it out for my Tokyo trip this November!
You live in a very nice place! Pleasant and calm! I wish you a Merry Christmas! --- 아주 좋은 곳에 사시네요! 쾌적하고 차분합니다! 행복한 크리스마스가 되길 빌어 요!
I do enjoy your videos. A lot. Miss your biographical story telling times. Have a great holiday. Many blessings
Great food tour, love the good vibes of you and the tour guides! Keep doing your best!
My lord these dishes look good (gimme the mackerel all day long!). So awesome that these two fellows could give you such an inside scoop. This market is absolutely on my bucket list.
That Mackerel breakfast looks simple but God I was salivating the whole way
I love how wholesome and natural Mike is.
After years of watching Mikey I’ve realized that when he looks like he’s bitten his lip, he actually loves the food 😅
fantastic content and really good guides!
I SO WISH THE US HAD MORE OF THIS!!!! SIGH 😞!!!
Merry Christmas 🎁 and a Blessed 2023 🎊 🎊 🎉🎉❤❤😊😊

at 13:46 - that salmon looks beyond amazing!
Nice video! That food looked really good
First btw
Have a great Christmas day!
Great video as always, the food looks amazing. I love the scallops BBQ
Lol...how much does Mikey not like sushi...but he can't ignore it any longer in order to get new content...?
😆😆😆
Tsukiji Tokyo Japan 🇯🇵❤️❤️
Happy Birthday Mikey
Looks delicious - Brilliant video and a Big like👍
Hi Pauline, not sure if you read the comment section, but because of these videos we should totally do a girls trip next year.
The tour is cool. I've always said I'd love to go places but only with someone who knows the language and places to go.
LOL I like how he was thinking about the big boiling pot of meat the whole time XD
The thing in the pot on the way to meet the two guys was gyuudon (beef-bowl), was written there, too: 牛丼。
Lmaooo I knew he was gonna eat more once he parted ways with those guys, lol that wasn’t even close to enough food for Mikey Chen!!
Thanks for posting- will be there in Japan in five weeks!
I swear Mikey is the only TH-camr I see who actually needs the Atheltic Greens 😂 everyone else eats tons of plants
How good was that market love this Mikey ❤❤so much yummy food ..x
Shout out from South Africa 🇿🇦 you are my idol. When I am down your video's make me feel better.
Mikey is very smart to stay out of new York this time of the year. This year huge snow storm hits up north badly. Many people died. Even down south is very cold with snow.
Merry Christmas
Will be interesting to see the new Tsukiji
Mikee drinking coffee and eating sushi a lot, whoaaaa 🤯🤯
Food is the only thing that makes people come together and have an enjoyable moment well depends who cooks it and also music does the same thing to.
Watching this video makes me want to move to Japan 🇯🇵 ✈️
Seafood one of my fav kind of foods!!! Great vid as always Mikey
not mike out here exposing my favorite daily coffee spot 😂😭
Hey Mike. Love this vid. The making of wasabi.. Great friends. That big pot of beef was huge. Blessings... ❤️🐞
Damn it’s always so satisfying to watch this videos but also the music and production put into the video is so awesome, I love mike and strictly dumpling
weve been here 6days ago ! food here is so delicious!!
That wasn't enough food for Mikey with the tour...He went back to get two bowls...😂
What's up tokyoBrah! Looking good!
Holy!!! lets gooo!! Def my kind of food!! whre all my foodies at?? ✋✋✋✋🙋♀🙋♀🙋♂🙋♂
So amazing
Loved Tsukiji market when I went to Japan. Would love to go back
21:43 bro got a free tour from them and didn’t put in the information
Yeah, why aren’t they mentioned or tagged? I went back and listened to when he introduced the two tour guides and they don’t say a name but mention that they’re partnering with “______ Arigato Japan” and if you google “arigato japan food tour” I think that might take you to it?
Mikey "UMAMI" Chen..not one video without his special word lol....
I need to go to Japan! That seared soy sauce mackerel looked fantastic. I'll be trying to make that myself when I catch some mackerel next summer.
Amazing 😀
Happy Birthday
One of these days I hope to go to some of the places you have been maybe I can get to meet Mike Chen and he can show me the right places
So tempting
Yappyy’s precious
What a lovely market and foods many thanks for your video.much love..one love..respect.
I struggle with sashimi. I don’t want raw fish but like it cooked. This was great. Very informational.
And to think that just a couple years back Mikey avoided raw sushi like the plague.
11:59 the orange stuff is good
I hope you get to Okinawa Japan. My husband and I lived there before. It is totally gorgeous.
the seafood tour can't even fill 1/4 of Mike's tummy
Do you have info on booking a tour
not sure how i missed this! but watching it now.
Go Tsukiji...
Can we get a list of the restaurants you went to? I would love to try the stew place and the pasta place next to it
two people answered this further up, they recognised them and gave a lady the names
if you go to the relies to AdrienHB you'll find the names and locations
I loved this video so much, man the food looks incredible. I really hope one day I touch down Japan
Everything looks so delicious!🤩❤️
Wow, that’s what I call a breakfast👍👍
I have never in my life hated my fish allergy more than I do now after watching this video. God it all looks so good.
I'm allergic to all fish except tuna and usually I don't have a taste for it so it doesn't feel like a loss, but Mike makes fish look so good...
@lymmea I'm allergic to all fish unfortunately. It sucks cause I grew up eating it and loved it so I had a taste for it, especially salmon. I didn't gain the allergy until I was 9. At least I still have shellfish lol. Mike makes not eating hard.
great stuff man!!!! you really made a turn around on sushi since when you started!! was wondering where and whats the name of the stall where you had the sushi bowl? planning to visit japan in a few months!
Interested aswell. Those uni spoons looked fantastic with all the different types
I think it says Tsukiji Itadori Unitora(?) but found it as Tsukiji Itadori Bekkan on Yelp. It has a picture of the 5 different types of uni in spoons.
@@amieuhm8739 thank you
What is the name of the tour company?
Wasbi is grown in middle Cali. And Seattle fish market is close to this but with way more crab
