Went to a Mexican-style seafood feast restaurant with some spicy lobster and other great seafood items. For dessert, we went to an iconic ice cream parlor & candy counter in a cozy space and afterward checked out the European-inspired indoor food market.

That chef’s multitasking skills were on ANOTHER level 🙌
Had me in aww with how many pans he was working and then the dude went to plate 💀👏 timing was absolutely insane
That was amazing. And those flames 🔥 all over. I’d definitely burn myself with those flames and shuffling all those pans.
Weren't they just! I'm super proud when I cook Christmas Dinner for 14 people - I'm in the UK so it's only a bigger turkey roast! 😆🙈
so was the amount of country crock he used. yikes. no wonder the food was “rich”
@@angb8182 sorry I'm English- well I'm not remotely sorry I'm English! 😆 but I meant that I Don't know what "Country Crock " is! Could you please explain love?
That Mexican work ethic remains undefeated 💪🏽🙌🏽
People always forget that Mexican cuisine is more than just tacos, don't get me wrong, I love tacos, but the country is between the Atlantic and the Pacific, plus the gulf; when it comes to seafood, dear lord, it is so freaking amazing.
Tacos are better
Literally no one that I’ve ever met has expressed that Mexican food is just tacos. I’m going to go out on a limb here and suggest that you’re from the USA. I’m sorry for your loss
@@jonathanfinan722 Jesus your past comments are just you hating on the USA, I’m fine with people criticizing it, but some people just hate on it. It gets annoying at a point
Best fish I ever had was a catfish at a restaurant just beyond the border
I live in San Antonio texas. There’s so many different way of making tacos and so many different ways to put protein. So far I am addicted to barbacoa taco with cheese.
I'm a big foodie but there's something extra special whenever it's a seafood feast. Makes me extra jealous of Mikey.
I am pregnant right now and all I want is seafood. I have to be careful though. Seafood is one of those things that ur told to avoid as much as possible while pregnant.
Man, I want to take my mom to something like that. She loves seafood.
There's a Channel called: la capital
I've made his shrimp soup recipe and it's great if you wanna make it yourself
@@miguelruiz4613 thanks
SAME!!!!
I am soooo excited to see you eat food that originates from Mexico, Italy, etc. There is incredible ethnic food diversity in the U.S.!!! Please consider west African and east African food available in the U.S. It is fascinating.
He has done a couple of African restaurants I think it was last year
Knowing him and his love for spice he will be back lol
@@pamray-haskins9252 West African
@@andiuptown1711 is it spicy ?
@@patscorner7015 oh yes it is
Towards the very end there’s a nice little segment where Mikey literally pokes beef for over a minute. 😂 idk why but I found that really funny
I go there all the time, really underrated and small spot , Alergrias seafood it’s 10/10 in Chicago 🔥
Christine is so patient helping Mikey put his food together while he films and eats. So sweet.
I know right!? That sandwich was so serious it took FOUR hands to assemble it!!
That fried fish was gorgeous❤️... Also, the second sandwich... Also, the stewed beef with garlic rice 🍚 😋 👍
The seafood had Mikey all excited, at 7:50 he put lime juice on the fried fish and he called it lemon juice.
You are such a great reviewer, resourceful information. Always fun to watch
This was a really good episode. Since he got married Mikeys been transitioning into a new phase of his life, don't get me wrong I'm not saying anything negative it happens to everyone, but he has been reviewing more casual fare. This one definitely felt like one of his older episodes where he was trying all sorts of stuff you can't just pick up at your local fast food or steakhouse.
Not even 1 minute and I'm already drooling over GIANT MEXICAN SEAFOOD FEAST
Wish I can just grab it out of the screen and chow down
It makes me proud as a filipino that whenever u get a chance to eat our food... You don't pass on it....🥰🥰🥰
Now I'm craving seafood! Looks great!
“Luckily we have a lot of family here to help.” Family has to wait patiently off camera, stomach growling, while Mike eats everything. 😝 (ok he meant takeaway, calm down people. Yeesh)
They wernt there 🤦♀️ derrrrr 👎👎👎👎
yeah, he meant take away
Mikey “The Situations” Chen
My dude is living his life to the fullest extent
Cheers from San Diego California
When you were eating the sandwich, I really sensed that you were in your happy place, Mike! When I go to Hawaii, this fall, I'm going to seek out Mom n' Pop Filipino joints to eat at, as well as Jollibee, because of you raving about Jollibee! Another wonderful video, as usual, sir!
Elena's and thelma's in waipahu is really good
@@eyoshikawa1017 I'll be staying in the Honolulu/Waikiki area, are those near or in that area? I should have specified.
@@MaskedRiderChris since you’re staying in town, you should try Sweet E’s Cafe or Cafe Kaila for breakfast/brunch. If you want some seafood I would recommend Ono Seafood or fresh catch. Definitely go to zippys. If you’re going to the beach & want some snacks, stop by 7Eleven and Don’t go to any ABC store to buy anything, they’re expensive asf. A very popular bakery spot for locals and tourists is Leonard’s Bakery for some malasadas (if you haven’t tried them, YOU NEED TO!!!). If you want good affordable sushi, go to Genki Sushi. Overall, I would say just try to venture away from the Waikiki area if you want real authentic local food. You could also ask the locals around for any other food recommendations near by that are good and affordable.
I just know that pineapple was amazing! That spread was awesome!!😍😍🤤🤤
The fact you're in London has me exited for a UK video tour?!?! Loved the last ones you did.
This isn’t London!
@@aklakahmed1354 really you don’t say 🙃
@@FOFA1630 lol
@@aklakahmed1354 In his opening statement to introduce this video (that was filmed in Chicago) Mike mentionsthat he is in London.
Spicy lobster 🦞 now I’m craving it
MIKEY!!!!!!! The cure for depression!
I'm a big fan and I'm a big fan of seafood
I love all of your videos keep up the good work
Wow! That song around 4 minutes is really inspiring and made me feel better today. Thank you Mikey!
Can we take a moment for the bit of ice cream that slid down the side of Mikey's glass to be lost forever
🪦rip 🪦
Forever in our hearts 💕
Mikeys beats that he features have went from toe tappers to straight up BOPS in the past four years! Love you, bud
I like this because its different. When you think of Mexican food, you think beef, pork, and chicken - but mexican seafood is surely at the top of my list because I like Mexican and Seafood - nice combo.
Such a delicious seafood feast❤❤❤ Looks so tempting😋😋
*Delicious!! 😍 😃 I love the colors of the delicacy you are having!! They look so yummy! I do Love it!*
Amazing seafood feast! Thanks Mike Chen for making me drool again🤤🤤
that cooking was off the hook , keeping time on those dishes amazing skill
Your the man best food reviewer out there keep it up man!
Surely Aquaman and Poseidon wouldn't enjoy eating their own subjects and people 😂 Great video once again though
But what would they eat though? They can't survive on a diet of sea kelps.
Man that pineapple did NOT want to go under that salamander / broiler lol
Mike you need to come Australia to explore our food. Especially the top end with the sea foods
I love how they just have tubs of butter ready at hand
OMG everything looks so GOOD!! 💗
Wow everything looks amazing!
Dang! That looked so good!!! All of it!!
Filipino beefsteak uses lemon juice or kalamansi juice to make it sour not vinegar
This was SUCH a great episode 😃
love watching your videos Mike, keep them coming :)
I just started a fasting diet over the last few days...this video was both a bad and a great decision to watch. Love the video's. I want seafood so bad right now! Gotta stay strong! :)
Another awesome video! I am always happy that you enjoy the food from my country (The Philippines). We love food so much! Thanks Mikey!
vid starts at 2:06
Ohh time too get the juices flowing lol. These videos always make my mouth water and make me hungry. Stay safe xxx
Makes me so happy watching Mickey enjoy the food of my country! Come to Jalisco and I will personally take you to the best most traditional birria tatemada I aver tasted in over 3 decades of living here.
The one-two punch! Filipino Beef Steak and Garlic Rice. 🔥🔥🔥
They need to have heat lamps over the table for that amazing spread.
Omg if your going to have a seafood feast this is the one to have, so DELICIOUS ❤️🥰..x
Hope those chef's get paid extra amazing skill
Nothing says love like giving family your cold sloppy seconds left overs huh, Mikey?
I, for one, would love to receive some delicious seafood leftovers.
People being weird about leftovers is such a privileged take. Lol
But you go ahead and shun people’s hospitality and create more food waste. 🤷♀️
Sounds like a really positive outlook. 😅
@@Nonya_Busyness If you're okay with saliva all up in your food, more power to you. Have a blessed day.
@@vuongn2318 It’s seafood… not a half eaten sandwich.
A bit sensitive there bud? You alright? Live and let live.
People are adults and can decide to accept the food without our help. He can bring it to me. There’s some serious Red Snapper there.
That is a amazing seafood feast!!!!!
15:03 Ice cream falling down like no one cares 😂
Hey Mikey, next time you’re in Chicago, try Conte di Savoia in Little Italy for the best Italian sandwich! Make sure to get “The Frank”, so good every time!
OMG that is crazy!! Looks delicious 🤗
Dang... the food is making me drool!!!
If you gave me those leftovers and I saw how you slobbered all in it, you would cease to exist in my life.
That is one ginormous tray of Seafood ++ Wow!
It's excellent you review places that are very appealing and not purveyors of strange, gross things or starred restaurants with absurdly small portions.
Curiously in Mexico sea food and cheese (or any thing derived from milk except butter) didn’t get mixed, there’s a belief that is a good thing for stomach and will get you sick. But recently there is very common to have some things like shrimps and oysters grilled with Parmesan cheese
Wow. This video really makes my mouth water!
YESSS! I knew you were going to Alegrias! I love that place!
My mouth is watering seeing you eat this sea food plater. 😋
Hi Mike for the sandwich you have to go to New York where they have just open an original branch of the "all'Antico Vinaio".
15:05 a moment of silence for the fallen ice cream. Gone too soon
🫡
Man. If I ever need to cater a wedding in Chicago, I’m hitting up this joint.
For the folks that are interested in the French Market, it is located under the Chicago Union Station track platform and so you don't necessarily have to drive to Downtown Chicago, you can take the Metra. I personally found the French pastry in the Market excellent.
I have never craved anything more than that seafood platter ! Everything looked delicious! I’m too pregnant to watch your videos rn Mikey🥲
Mike don’t give away all our secrets! Lol! This is a true Chicago hidden gem.
That looks so delicious 🤤
First time I've seen mike slightly overwhelmed! 😄
Seafood is my life!
the ice cream sliding at 15:04 😭😭
I would have definitely helped you out eating all that seafood. Love all of your channels, just keep up the great work and enjoy the quest for food knowledge.
From the UK and I really thought I heard Mike say at the very beginning that he was going to go for a run around "London" I've listened about 6 times and it still sounds just like it!
At the beginning of the video I thought he said that he was in London too, LOL.
@@AT-jm4dl not just me then love? Haha! I thought I was going mad! 🥴🤭
He did say that. He was probably in London at the time. In another recent video he mentioned being in France too, so I think he's visiting Europe now.
I don’t eat seafood but I like watching your videos anyway :) do you edit these yourself?
Travelling throughout the Philippines, the food on Luzon uses more vinegar. If you go towards the Visayas and Mindanao it tends to be less acidic.
Wow, very huge seafood tray.
If I eat alone also can't finish it hahaha.
Nice sharing menu Mike &Thank you I Food leveling
Ah the food in my dreams lol I love it.
I recently looked into getting a countertop soft icecream machine 😂
they had my 1st favorite food wrapped around my 3rd favorite food!
The steak sea food sandwich your a fricken genius i was drulin the whole time now my favorite vid.
Hi Mikey! Love the videos. I just heard that the famous sandwich shop All'antico Vinaio now has a location in New York. Just a heads up. Keep up the good work!
Dang that all looked delicious
@tzuyang needs to eat all of this 😂❤
1:23 Nothing like a couple drops of vitamin D to coat the back of the throat to start the morning!
Color red food is always appetizing.😋
Awesome job Mikey.
That Mexican seafood chef though!!!!
Mikey where does it all go??? I love it!!
What a spread. That red sauce takes some getting used to I'm sure. But looks insane. Seafood heaven.👍❤😋😋😋😎
look at the rich flavour, its amazing.
I instinctively tried to catch the ice cream that was dripping out of that glass! The food looked amazing.
Looks crazy! but delishh
Finally someone covered Margie's. :)
That's enough seafood for a small village. Wow looks amazing
This meal has to be shared! Where are your friends!?
Highly recommend visiting Nayarit !! The food and beaches are to die for
Much love from Australia Mike :D
Why am I watching this at 2am lol
