Watching this is torture if you are hungry
I agree Chen, the best part is always the bottom of the bowl.
SO happy you tried Ramen Wasabi finally… I haven't found anything better, but this video has added 2 more stops to see if they can be topped
Chicago coming through
Mike,
I am a longtime fan of yours. You have such amazing presentation skills that can keep people entertained and hooked. But please travel to more unexplored places. Also you can utilize this presentation skills of yours in some show as anchor or something. People will love to see you on TV.
Thanks
Did he get married
That all looks so good😍
HI I LOVE YOU
GaaaRrRrRrRlic
This just reminds me of how Mike didn't used to eat Sushi or raw fish & now he's eating better sushi than I ever will :')
Menya Goku is our favorite! They closed down during covid and we anxiously awaited their reopening for like a year and a half. The best ramen in the city 😋 so glad you highlighted them in the vid!
SHARE THE GOSPEL AND READ THE BIBLE PLSSS.
I know Boise Idaho isn't the most exciting place….but it's the closest place that has some Korean/Asian places to eat! So if you get the chance, I'd love to see you review places to eat there.
"That is a THICK BELLY!" – Bro who you talking to?! Hahaha
Witnessed Mike not loving sushi at first but loving it now! What a journey!!
Good food 🍜 ❤
At 8:37 that rib fell into my mouth and for a second i was so happy
Wondering how is it domestic “wagyu” if I thought wagyu cattle was only from Japan.??
Oh my goodness the bowl of Wagyu ramen looks beautiful 😍
Manger 😋😋😋😋
Going to Chicago this week for the first time! And I will be checking these places out! Thank you Mikey Chen!
I just love watching you eat🤣Dayum❤❤
Dang, I want to go to an omakaze, that looked so good!!!
Mike I heard that baby formula food is going to be more expensive than wagyu beef.
for once i didnt care about what he ate and i wasnt jealous
i understand why u r such a foody , man u r living in heven eating asian food all the time i get it its i live to eat , cz its asian food , i dunno why they say italian food is no1 in the world
.. its chineese food that is definatley no1 then mediteranian arabic food , then comes th italian come on i would kill just to eat those asian dishes that u vlog about , too bad we dont have quality asian food like that in our country 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
chinees japanees korean food
to die for if there is heven i want it to be filled with those food and never to get full just keep eating forever , seafood asian style with noodles and others … u r really the luckiest person in the world …
4:30 I like how Mikey pushes the gold flakes aside like its nothing to show the beef pieces hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣
Dog rice ?????
Totally going to drop by for quick omakase when I head to Chicago! I still remember the time when Mike used to steer clear of raw fish until he had a collab in Japan to try fresh fish for the first time. Way a long way he's come 😀
Are you ever go to okinawa try okinawa soba and there pig feets they like that i like only the 🍲 soup. And gyoza too.
Quite the collage of tastes.
Welcome to my city. I love it when u come here cause I go to the same places right after you do. Thank you so muuuuccchhh
I live 30 minutes from here how the h*** did I not know of this wonderful place
Chicago not only has the best food in America, it has the best food in the world.
Johnnies Beef. Get it double dipped with sport peppers. NO CHEESE
Ramen wasabi kicks ass. Logan Square has some of the best food spots on the planet.
Yummy, thank you for the adventure
As much as that beef costs you should get some gold
I was so excited when you first started trying sushi 🍣 look at you now I love it.
My faveeee! Being able to watch ur videos is truly a gift!
Glad you're putting Chi-town on the map. We are a city of diversity in culture and of course culinary experiences.
Mike did your restaurant open? Planning a trip to New York xx
I tried eating before I came to watch this in hopes I would be able to not end up hungry by the end but I failed miserably. Always love your videos. Did you make it to Carrollton Tx area for the food around there?
I’m trying to figure out why the food was so nice but the music was so ratchet 😂😂
Most of the time i think as soon as he walks into the shops door. They already know who he is and he will put their restaurant on You Tube. So, he gets special service and they will put extra meats and other food in his dishes. When you go there. It's jyst a regular serving. They know he's a food critic. He will b treated different from us.
i wanna go to chicago now
What is "truffle wagyu"?
What ever happened to your restaurant?
Watching this while cooking ramen is so inspiring and also giving me too many options to go lol😆 great vid!🤩
I just left Chi after having had Ramen Wasabi. Didn't get to try any other places. :c
Dope tunes
