I was going to say this! I often watch/save his vids til I am having my supper, and it feels nice not to "eat" alone! That or I watch them pre-supper, and I get hungry as I watch!
I am part of the "eat dinner with Mike" club. If there isn't a new food video I go look for one of Mike's older food videos. So I never have to "eat alone" because I got my online food pal right here. LOL xoxo
Yes, thank you, Mikey; because of you and your videos, many of us don't have to eat alone even though we may be alone. And I also don't feel alone because of your fellow fans. (Now apparently the "Eat Dinner with Mikey" Club.😋)
some of us are so ill that we will never see the places you see in reality, but we can experience them through you. this is why you will never be alone, you open up the world for us to see with you, and for that you are loved and have so many loyal friends all over the world. life is very very short, seize every day . thankyou.
How accurate you are Dragonmaddie! I tell ppl all the time that life is waaay too short to be fighting, arguing, taking advantage of ppl, not helping, being a miserable person, etc. Waaay too short! I choose to help everyone I can with everything I can wherever I am! Many blessings to you!!
You reminded me of my move to Seattle in 1996, when I drove from Florida to Seattle. On Thanksgiving Day, I was driving through California and had been on the road for about 5 or 6 days (I stopped driving whenever it got dark, so it took longer.) I was feeling homesick, and missed my family and friends. To treat myself, I stayed at Railroad Park Resort in Dunsmuir, CA, which is a charming railroad car motel in northern California. Their dining car was closed, but they directed me to a lovely restaurant nearby, where I had a delicious Thanksgiving Day dinner all by myself. And by that time, the sadness and homesickness wore off, and I was thoroughly enjoying my adventure. So here's to you, Mike! Keep going until the fun wears off, just as you said. And thank you for sharing your travels with those of us who will never get the opportunity to go where you go. We love ya!
I feel like I’m a part of your life man. Like we are friends. Keep it up man, you’re a great guy with a great personality. Hope to meet you some day. Let me know if you are ever in Pinellas County, Florida. I’ll take you out for some food. Or we could hit some places in Europe and try some food together 😉 and you also feed my obsession with food.... thank you for showing me all the flavors I am missing out on. Lol.
When he started taking about how he often didn’t even remember when it was a major holiday, I got kinda sad, so.... I think we should all go hang with Mikey for XMas
I so wish a beautiful girl could see how wonderful a person you are and fill your void of sorts. I'm glad we all can be with you on your travels. Thank you for taking us with you. Hugs
“The reason why I’m not lonely is because of you guys” aww Mikey so sweet, thank you for travelling to so many countries and bringing them to us viewers ❤️
Mikey: "its pretty spicy but still a little too sweet for me" Actual meaning: this has been marinated in the fiery dephts of hell don't attempt to eat unless you trained under the teachings of Mikey Chen.
lol i was gonna comment that he complains nearly every vid about dishes being too sweet. so much so that for all the other vids in which he points out the necessity for lemon and lime juice or similar sweetness-mollifier being added to a dish to make it perfect, it makes me wonder if he loses his senses or at least his common sense, mid-meal, or something :P
I notice that a lot of people are talking about watching you while eating which is fitting cause you don't end your videos by saying " until I eat again" its "until we eat again" you are always welcome at any of our dinner tables. Thank you for spurring us to be a little more adventurous in our foodie life's
Dear Mikey I never feel like I’m eating alone anymore either ! Even though most of the time you’re eating glorious seafood and I’m eating stale toast for dinner. Thanks for the company as well !
It's really refreshing how candid you've been lately, opening up about your personal life and your feelings about traveling solo. It can't be easy to show your vulnerable side, but that's why I like your channel, you're genuine and relatable.
To be honest, I really enjoy you taking us along to all your travels, not only the food, but our insight and descriptions of the places you visit, it's like I'm traveling with you to all these amazing places. Thank you for the adventures, love them.
Can’t say how much I love watching your videos. Specially when you’re in Korea. 🥰. I’d love to see you find a wonderful woman that could enjoy life as you do. You’re such a positive person. Thank You for sharing your wonderful videos. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I moved to the UK completely by myself. All my friends and family are in Germany. I probably won’t have anyone to celebrate Christmas or NYE with which really hit me these past days and made me very sad. Watching this cheered me up a little cause watching you while I’m eating makes me feel a lot less lonely. Thank you for that!
Hey Mikey. I heard you talking about holidays, and it really resonated with me. I'm a college student in Seattle and my parents live in Korea, so this video made me doubly homesick haha. Holidays and special occasions are pretty rough, because it makes me miss my parents an indescribable amount. Watching everyone around me have the luxury of going home and relaxing while eating their mom's cooking... it's not easy sometimes. Someday, I hope to be living out my dream and unapologetically enjoying everything, just like you. Keep strong, and thanks for sharing a glimpse into your life :)
Hi Mike. This really spoke to me. I'm alone for the first time in my life for an entire week. It's really nice to have you around to fill in the quiet spots in my life.
I really liked that this time you sat down and just got real with us, makes you a lot more relatable (not that you arnt) but it feels like you really want a connection with you’re audience and I’m loving the vibe! Going amazing mike and love the content!
I'm proud of you for enjoying your time in Korea more than ever despite having to deal with some mixed emotions. Thanks for always keeping it real and taking us along on your journey.
Enjoy your life because you will get to the point that you'll want a family and hopefully you continue to travel...this was a glimpse into your life and it was truly wonderful so thank you for sharing it with us! I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels like you are family 🥰🥰
Everytime I watch your videos, I always have to eat something because watching you eat makes me crave food so I feel like I'm eating with you and traveling with you at the same time!! I enjoy watching your videos mikey!! 💕😊👍🏼👍🏼
You made me a little misty eyed there around 14:00. Here’s a virtual hug from one of your online “family members”. You are never alone. We are always watching!
Love you tons Mike.....always know we are here for you and you inspire me and so many to live this awesome lifestyle of seeing the world and connecting people through food!
What’s the best way to take a break from studying for tomorrow’s final you ask? Why watching a new video from Mike Chen of course!! Good luck to everyone taking finals
Kinda just want to give you a hug now. I know you generally are alone on your trips but I’m sure occasionally it does get lonely. You talk to us but it’s not the same as having someone there to talk about what you see or what you’ve eaten. Thank you for sharing your life and travels with us.
Welcome to Cambodia, Mike! I hope you had a good time here. One thing I like about your videos is your honest expression with the taste of the food you had. I mostly don't subscribe any UA-camrs especially food reviewers, but you. Very much looking forward to watching your videos about Cambodian food. Thank you for visiting the Kingdom, Mike!
Of course you have us I love your videos I get to travel the world with you see your honest opinion on the food of each country I get to see great architecture what more could I ask for
I love rewatching your videos and traveling with you has been so fun and even your day trips around Seattle during quarantine. You’ve inspired adventure in eating more diverse foods and I appreciate it!
I'm from Egypt and I'm really happy that you are coming to egypt mikey i love your videos so much and i think you are gonna love it here in egypt can't wait to see that video
Gorgeous Cambodian hotel room!!! It's only human to feel lonely at times Mikey...but remember that you have a huge youtube family with you every step of the way. We love you😍😍
I never comment but just wanna say I love ur videos. I really hope that when you feel lonely sometimes, just know you make some of us feel a little less lonely too!! ps your job is awesome, we appreciate you and your videos!!
What you are doing with the videos and food is awsome. I enjoy every video you've put out including my son and when you get feeling alone my son and I are watching and waiting for the next video. Great stuff. Thanks
Just found your channel and relate to what you said about holidays and feeling lonely. Keep up the good work and let us live vicariously through your travel and fun!
I loved this video! Love you Mikey !...for a lot of reasons that are difficult to explain but you have made exploring the world really cool for my children and I ❤❤
I’m really glad we’re friends I enjoy seeing you travel and eat all those delicious foods so please keep doing what you do cause your audience your friends enjoy it!! Mikey Chen we love you your #1 fan
I get the Holiday thing. I do Security on a college campus , closed, quiet, great pay, on Holidays ! Thanksgiving it snowed, and it was beautiful, so serene. It's the quiet moments that matter. Thanks Mike, for being here. You are good people !
Thank you for sharing your personal thoughts with us. Loneliness can and will hit us unexpectedly. Just think of the good things, your blessings and your loved ones. Think happy thoughts 😍
Mikey chan I love love your travel/food vlogs .. you have gotten me through weeks worth of state isolation ..just watching your vlogs has inspired me to cook at home and find asian food dishes around my area to eat
I love your videos so much! You give such in depth reviews, and show such amazing respect for culture! I appreciate you sharing these travels with people like us! We always have you at the dinner table with us!
Yeah mike! Don't feel lonely. You maybe alone but here we are always watching you wherever you go! Always loved your vlogs! Great food as always! Keep safe and strong mike!
Congratulations on your first child Mikey. And you will love it. Fatherhood should only be scary for about the first ten minutes you are told. It's all gravy after that initial shock!
We really appreciate you getting more personal with us 💕 we never feel alone eating while watching you haha
My family called me weird, because I was eating with one of Mikey's videos on.
For real, I save his videos to watch while eating dinner
I was going to say this! I often watch/save his vids til I am having my supper, and it feels nice not to "eat" alone! That or I watch them pre-supper, and I get hungry as I watch!

you have become such a bigger part of my dinner time like whenever i am eating i am watching ur videos
thank you!!! I'm honored
yes same here
Same here it just feels odd eating a meal without a food video from Mikey Chen, Alton Brown, or Mark Wiens playing while I eat
Same here! Every night at dinner time. It’s me, my dinner and my iPad with Mikey 🥰
Same. Meals feel different without Mike.
some of us are so ill that we will never see the places you see in reality, but we can experience them through you. this is why you will never be alone, you open up the world for us to see with you, and for that you are loved and have so many loyal friends all over the world. life is very very short, seize every day . thankyou.

Wooow, that's brave Karen (moving on Thanksgiving) & good for you!
That rail road place sounds amazing to me... thanks so much!

Only if he will ever host a meet & greet lmao
Rigghhtt
Who needs family when food is family right?
when someone travel so much so often like mike...you'll start to even forget what day it is that day
I so wish a beautiful girl could see how wonderful a person you are and fill your void of sorts. I'm glad we all can be with you on your travels. Thank you for taking us with you. Hugs
He's adorable
Extremely charming 🥰
More variety of food in that airport than my entire town..teeny bit jealous! Always here for you Mikey and just do whatever makes you smile :)
“The reason why I’m not lonely is because of you guys” aww Mikey so sweet, thank you for travelling to so many countries and bringing them to us viewers ❤️
Love these more real, personal conversations lately. Love being your online "friend" and travel buddy!
Mikey: "its pretty spicy but still a little too sweet for me"
Actual meaning: this has been marinated in the fiery dephts of hell don't attempt to eat unless you trained under the teachings of Mikey Chen.
That's why they serve fried food together as that level of spicy can hurt your stomach.
Wung Chen
lol i was gonna comment that he complains nearly every vid about dishes being too sweet. so much so that for all the other vids in which he points out the necessity for lemon and lime juice or similar sweetness-mollifier being added to a dish to make it perfect, it makes me wonder if he loses his senses or at least his common sense, mid-meal, or something :P
PRETTY well said!!
You’re such a genuine person. And you’re right. You’re never alone. We’re always here with ya! And you with ya! Thanks Mikey!
❤️🥰😭I got a bit emotional when he started talking about family
Oh and are you Chinese cause I am
I know dude it gets emotional

Just Lily he is Chinese and I am too haha
GENIUS!! The way you use the chopticks the hold the cup noodle lid down.. Cant believe I never thought of that!!

This was sad and sweet, we love you Mikey
Dear Mikey I never feel like I’m eating alone anymore either ! Even though most of the time you’re eating glorious seafood and I’m eating stale toast for dinner. Thanks for the company as well !
"it's just so cool how this airport embraces culture" next scene... Baby shark😂😂🙈
My husband is from Egypt and we visit almost yearly! I can’t wait to see your review on it!
Ahhh I just love your showwww I've been a fan for 3 yearsss

It's really refreshing how candid you've been lately, opening up about your personal life and your feelings about traveling solo. It can't be easy to show your vulnerable side, but that's why I like your channel, you're genuine and relatable.
Crazy how I was looking up a Korean bbq buffet in my area & then I got this notification 😋💖
Mikey you're a great guy and I always enjoy your videos. You're never alone.
To be honest, I really enjoy you taking us along to all your travels, not only the food, but our insight and descriptions of the places you visit, it's like I'm traveling with you to all these amazing places. Thank you for the adventures, love them.

Thanks for making this video, Mikey. Brings back fun memories of my trips to Seoul. I agree about the airport, its probably my favorite so far.
The Korean airport part was so informative. I’m happy to see you enjoy Korean culture and food.
I really liked that this time you sat down and just got real with us, makes you a lot more relatable (not that you arnt) but it feels like you really want a connection with you’re audience and I’m loving the vibe! Going amazing mike and love the content!

I love watching your channel Mike. It's makes me hungry and want to try different cultures of food
The airport makes me want to fly out there just to see all the culture and then fly back home after eating some great food!
I really liked that you showed us a 'fail' food place. I mean it's great to see some of the best foods you eat but it's still fun to see the rips.
