You have no idea how happy it makes me to see you enjoying your time in London Mike! After having all of the time where travel was non-existent or extremely difficult, it's so nice to see people coming to visit us in the UK again 🇬🇧❤️
Rewatched your Singapore videos and I realized that you put the pricing on those videos. I like that you did that. Your newer videos doesn't have a price on it anymore. I understand that your pallet has evolved and so have your dish prices however, it would be nice to see how much you paid for each dish so that it gives us a better understanding on how much it will approx cost if we were to visit and try the dish. Love your content and keep up the awesome work.
I bet Mike would go head over heels for Nordic sandwich cakes, especially ones featuring smoked salmon. They're a traditional savoury centrepiece on tables set for celebrations like graduation parties, weddings, etc. I know they're a thing at least in Sweden (smörgåstårta) and Finland (voileipäkakku). The really good ones, whose creation approaches an art form, are legendarily succulent. People used to identify the really skilled cooks who made a great sandwich cake and make a point out of ordering one from these trusted artisans (perhaps a bakery or a grandma). If you're not digging into the rich variety of British cheeses out there, you're missing out.
Mikey needs to hit up a Greggs when their sausage rolls and pastries come out of the oven yum. Their sandwiches are awesome too, but I'm just a poor Northener, the prices at Harrods curls my toes :)
@@lizvickers7156 Agreed! Theres tons of good eats up in Liverpool or Manchester, made me sad Mike was actually at Manchester but went down to London without having a look around! Maybe next time :)
@@123keniakiki I don't eat it super often but I feel like a sausage roll when you're out and about is just a nice little way to bridge the gap until dinner lol. Their jam doughnuts are great too :)
I visited the UK in college on a choir tour for two weeks in 2003. Everyone was bitching about the food because "McDonald's here is not like at home". I never once went into a international chain. I was asking locals "where do you like to eat?" I had an amazing time, tried some great food, hung out with awesome host families. I would definitely go again. Definitely spent literally 6 hours in Harrods. Like all day.
Literally every other country’s McDonald’s is better quality food than US McDonald’s, Americans are too used to eating crap they don’t know what real food tastes like
Plus why would I go to a mcds in a foreign country in 2003? I'm trying to experience the country. Nooooo, let me try all the stuff I won't see again. Isn't that the point of traveling?
Watching someone for years eat the widest variety of food on this channel, experience a sausage roll for the first time brought a smile to my face! Considering I probably have one a day 😂
I am from England and the way you describe a sausage is so strange to me, I thought everyone knew what a sausage roll was 😂 You are right, it is a sausage meat usually spiced or flavoured in some way and usually pork wrapped in pastry!
Bro those sodas you're buying are NOT representative of the pricing in London lmao You can get cans or bottles of any of the big soda brands at any supermarket for £1-2 depending on size. So glad to see you back in the UK again. Need to see you explore more of London. We have good restaurants for all cuisines you can think of!
@@gavcom4060 We do indeed, and yet Coke/Diet Coke etc is still roughly around 70-85p nationwide, so goodness knows where he's finding it at £4 per can.
Mikey, you should definitely visit the King's Cross area next time as there are lots of nice eating places and restaurants there as well. For a posh Chinese try A.Wong in Victoria, the only 2*Michelin Chinese restaurant in the UK.
Loving the UK videos and so great that you got to check out Harrods whilst you were here! So many other cool spots to check out too that are no where near as £££ if you're here again!
You need to get to the places normal people eat at in the UK. You're missing so much staying in London and going to the tourist hotspots like Harrods!!! Nobody in the UK would pay that much for a sandwich!!!
Actually £12 for a trio of prawns,lobster and egg and truffle sandwiches is quite a bargain as Mikey said,which incidentally works out to £4 per sandwich which is less than what I paid for my M&S posh ham and egg sandwich last week!🤣 He's a New Yorker after all where you probably have to pay double for that.
Love the fact you've been in the UK! The UK gets a very bad rep for food (some of it fair, some of it unfair), but if you're a foodie you can eat very well in the country - especially in places in London.
Next time you need to spend more time here in the UK. New Malden has the largest Korean community outside of Korea, so the restaurants there are worth a visit!
Yesssss Mikey sooo glad you finally had a sausage rooooollll! \o/ They are definitely nicer fresh out of the oven, but glad you got to experience it non the less. Thanks for giving the UK another chance, so nice to see you here. Hope you and Christine are happy and well!
So Glad you got the chance to eat things you hadn't tried before. Harrods is really an eye into some of the serious perfectionism in the catering world.
All that looked positively scrumptious, sir! It's nice to see how the other half eats, as it were. That last ham sammich in particular looked heavenly!
People are out here losing their jobs and on the brink of homelessness and this guy is having the time of his life. I can’t enjoy content like this anymore.
The Harrods rotisserie chicken sandwich is very tender and succulent, hope you tried that. Diet coke in cans or bottles is about £2 in most convenience stores and the metro supermarkets even in London.
TTHANKYOU SO SO MUCH,Mike ! I’m British but I have not been to harrods ! And i did not know,the food was like this. I know you ate some of the best food on offfer in London without hesitation- you can see the superior quality! Guess what? Harrods has just jumped onto my list to do 👌🙌👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Mike, over here in United Kingdom, crispy aromatic duck is what it is called, self made UK thingy. It is mostly deep fried and served together with meat unlike Peking duck. All Chinese restaurants and takeaway have them, even supermarkets.
I miss London so badly! I went to Drama Studio London for their one-year program in Acting and I fell in love with the city. I really never wanted to leave.
And they started adding sweetners like aspatame to everything witch is more detremental to health than sugar cos thats english logic i miss the ribena from back in the day haha.
Also, you need to eat at Camden Town at Camden Market, there are a lot of good eats there. Il Cucciolo is my favourite Italian restaurant in central London.
@@bobbybobstar1496 Thank god poor people also have places to eat at! In truth, some of the best food joints I've ever been to are "hole-in-the-wall" places.
I've been to Harrod's food court twice. Both times close to Christmas. I soooo wanted to eat the gorgeous foods there but spent all my Xtra splurge $$ on gold and silver almonds (mostly for gifts). Thanks for enjoying some of that amazing food for me as I'll most likely never return.. London will always have a special place in my heart tho! ❤️🇬🇧❤️
I took my GF to Harrod's on our last trip. She kept complaining as we walked through the store that this wasn't her type of store as she did have the money to shop here. Her demeanor changed quickly when we hit the food court. She couldn't have been more excited. In fact we had to cut out time short as she was almost having a panic attack ;-) We do plan to go back soon to England and Harrod's
I get pasta evangelist delivered to me from Harrods and I live in the north east of england it arrives the next day. I just cook it at home and it is amazing! this is a treat i get once every 3 to 4 months. Also a typical brit would just eat the sausage roll with their hands and not with a fork xD
Ditto, I get a delivery every month, I am a shift worker, and I can have a really lovely meal in about 10 minutes. It's an affordable treat, and the Carbonara of Dreams is a real occasional thing 😁
Glad you are enjoying the UK. You need to try a proper Scotch egg, and our national dish... Chicken tikka massala. Keep up the good work, My hubby and I love watching your videos together.
@@Anonym9x chicken tikka is Indian but when it came to the UK it was too dry for the local taste so they added the sauce as a gravy like substitute making chicken tikka masala which is now the national dish
@@Anonym9x We love our Indian food in the UK and, as Marshall said, the dish was altered for our Western tastes. Has been the top of favourite meal in the UK for a number of years, surpassing the infamous fish and chips. I am a Biryani girl at heart but Tikka Massala is the number one dish here.
If you love this, I could really recommend Markeat in the city of Hasselt, Belgium. It’s a foodhall/ markt with different kinds of kitchen serving fresh and handmade food. But more on restaurant level.
Glad you enjoyed the Ibérico ham baguette! If you get the chance to buy some ham to make your own, I'd rub some garlic on lightly toasted sliced baguettes (you can do this in the oven if you need it to stay warmer longer, though rubbing the garlic might take a bit then as it's hot!), drizzle some olive oil and just put it on top. Both open and closed sandwich are pretty nice.
Wowsers, my wallet feels a lot lighter just watching you eat all that food from Harrod's!! Fresh, warm Sausage Rolls are a thing of pure beauty, they do need to be freshly out of the oven to enjoy the crumbly pastry..... dab on some tomato sauce and enjoy!!
Yep, that sausage roll was definitely crying out for some tomato sauce! (ketchup, apparently tomato sauce to American is like canned tomato puree that you'd use in pasta or something XD)
Or tomato ketchup as it is known on this side of the pond. I had this discussion with my sons godfather who thought I was offering a pasta sauce to him.
Coleman's English Mustard is always the go-to with a decent Sausage Roll, or Scotch Egg, or Pork Pie.... The 3 classic English snack foods that are usually eaten "cold" (room temperature or lightly chilled). Cheers from Cambridge, UK! Haven't been to Harrod's in about 20 years but I don't miss the prices haha!
@@andreaw1458 Yep piccalilli is a classic, based on mustard too with vegetables and pickled gherkins/onions etc... wish you could get it commercially without sugar personally.
Awesome video as always. Harrods is amazing. If it’s not too late please, please, please visit a Greggs while you’re in London! Typical British street food options!! Would love to know your thoughts on it!
Great channel, I always think it's sort of funny when Mike Chen takes half the lobster sandwich in one bit then a quarter of a tee-spoon of the dessert when he could pop the whole thing in.
Try out Portobello, Borough Market, Shoreditch, Boxparks next time when free. Normal Londoners don’t really go to Harrods for overpriced sandwich’s. There’s loads of mum and pop store/stall that will exceed Harrods food, that’s for sure.
Omg I'm so happy theres another London video! 😁 But Mike it was absolutely so heartwarming and made me smile so much seeing you talk about, describing and eating a sausage roll 😍 you tried an extremely gourmet one I would loved for you to try a high street chain one 😁 take care thanking you for another amazing video xXx
It sucks, don't. The Harrods food hall is honestly grocery store deli quality. It's ok if you live near there and need dinner. Planning a trip to eat there? Don't do it. It's all cold too, you have to bring it to your AirBNB or hotel to heat to eat up. The rest of Harrods is amazing and worth visiting though. Also, London is an overrated tourist destination.
@@dickriggles942 lol im not an authority on this but its not that bad. Food is hit or miss yes, Harrods is fun, good quality but yes gotta heat up elsewhere. The best thing about london for me was the fries/chips. I love fries and they know how to make them. And its gonna be expensive so clear room on your cc
I love Harrods Sushi, the best I have tried in UK. Sandwiches in the food court are amazing as well. I tried all sandwiches before, I can confirm, the flavours are amazing. My favourite Iberico roll. Crispy bread, and lots of Iberico, full of flavour explosions, melts in your mouth, no sauces or salads. If you haven't tried something similar before, this is first go sandwich. You should have tasted Sushi or Meat restaurants! There is Chinese restaurant on top floor, food is pretty good as well.
Mikey on the sausage roll tip, when you go back to NYC, go to Bourke Street Bakery in Manhattan in Mid town and try out their lamb sausage roll. It's a thing of rare beauty!
I’m sure he expected that if you shop in say Harrods or Fortnum’s, you’re going to pay big bucks…Excellent for a treat however, not practical for everyday consumption unless you live next door to Harrods say for instance! Minted!
If you went into a local supermarket or convenient store, Coca cola would be so much cheaper! Obviously, you went into an expensive shop! But it is a nice treat!
Mikey, to see the other side of the coin, you really MUST visit a Marks and Spencer's Food Court. The quality versus price ratio compared to Harrods will astonish you !
40+ years ago I went to Harrods as a teenager, the food court wasn't eye catching at all and all I came back with was a pair of socks. Funny how he makes it so I missed the boat good. Go to Scotland and have venison and salmon, that will make all the difference.
If there isn't a chicken shop only tour vid in the UK, I know Mike has got to go back again. Nandos might be touristy but chicken shops are just unmatched. Even the Korean town areas in the UK are too good to pass up
the snack bars at harrods were really good and you got luxurious foods cheaper then you would think! try it out if you want something special & high quality but not pay a lot
You have no idea how happy it makes me to see you enjoying your time in London Mike! After having all of the time where travel was non-existent or extremely difficult, it's so nice to see people coming to visit us in the UK again 🇬🇧❤️
I think I'm making the trip next year! (Hopefully)

@@aeromotive2 I didn't find London expensive at all, stop going to the Tourist traps.
The sandwich platter looks so cute and delicious
I love Harrods Sushi, the best I have tried in UK. Sandwiches in the food court are amazing as well. I tried all sandwiches before, I can confirm, the flavours are amazing. My favourite Iberico roll. Crispy bread, and lots of Iberico, full of flavour explosions, melts in your mouth, no sauces or salads. If you haven't tried something similar before, this is first go sandwich. You should have tasted Sushi or Meat restaurants! There is Chinese restaurant on top floor, food is pretty good as well.
Wow awesome British food, the sausage roll looked massive, the food looked delicious 🤤
I enjoy these high quality videos
Haven't even gotten past the intro, and already drooling!!
Seriously, come back to Canada!!
Welcome to the UK - I hope you enjoy your stay! You should definitely try Chinatown in London and let me know what you think :)
He did look at the last video of his
He's already done a Chinatown video within the last week or so :).
@@ukmaxi oh I'm so behind! haha
I was terribly disappointed with the Red Lantern, will never go again
Hi! I started a Food Vlog in Orlando Florida a year ago, would love it if you would check it out! Thanks!
No shade to your other videos, but this one you seemed really genuinely happy to eat this food. It was joyful to eat vicariously through your video 😅
No way he was, that stuff is garbage.
Love your experience in Harrod’s …thank you for sharing, makes my day 😊
Love the comparison between the sausage roll and a dumpling 😅
Mikey on the sausage roll tip, when you go back to NYC, go to Bourke Street Bakery in Manhattan in Mid town and try out their lamb sausage roll. It's a thing of rare beauty!
I’m sure he expected that if you shop in say Harrods or Fortnum’s, you’re going to pay big bucks…Excellent for a treat however, not practical for everyday consumption unless you live next door to Harrods say for instance! Minted!
Thanks for the video. Everything looked DELICIOUS! 😋
Safe Journey!
CHOLULA!!!
If you went into a local supermarket or convenient store, Coca cola would be so much cheaper! Obviously, you went into an expensive shop! But it is a nice treat!
I love the make your own buffet style food tours. It all looked really good!
Loved this video! I'm glad you get to enjoy the fruits of your labor. I have learned so much from you!
If the pasta your eating is a “workout on the jaw” pasta isn’t cooked lol. Your food explanations are hilarious.
Mikey, to see the other side of the coin, you really MUST visit a Marks and Spencer's Food Court. The quality versus price ratio compared to Harrods will astonish you !
M&S best ever prawn sandwich and roast beef with horseradish sandwich are better than what Mikey had.
@@davidgriffiths3713 Moved back to Canada - Twenty years on, I still miss that chicken tandoori sandwich...😢
*That whole selection looks so EXTREMELY DELICIOUS, 💚💛🧡 I am super excited seeing so many different foods getting eaten all at once!* 🤤😋👍
All that food from the mall and the setup reminds me of Japan and man do I miss it!
40+ years ago I went to Harrods as a teenager, the food court wasn't eye catching at all and all I came back with was a pair of socks. Funny how he makes it so I missed the boat good. Go to Scotland and have venison and salmon, that will make all the difference.
If your eating outside, you may aswell go to a corner shop/off licence to get a bottle of coke for about 80p
Sausage roll in Australia is almost always eaten with tomato sauce or ketchup where you live 😉
Would LOVE to eat with you one day Mikey! What an incredible experience that would be :)
Anyone else leaning over sideways trying to help Mike not drop any of the sandwich toppings at Harrods, or was it just me? Lol
If you liked the sausage roll- you should really try Gregg's in the UK, and the other end of price range!
😆 @ 9:24 When you leaned forward I thought that was Paul Hollywood sitting behind you! 😆
I love the way he said gateau. Hope London treated you well. Hit up a Greggs while you're there lol.
Get a proper sausage roll from Greggs
@@shaydmanc7788 meh
Gotta love a sausage roll and a steak bake haha.
Harrods food hall is expensive but a no miss on a trip to London. Another great review.
*Gosh!!♥😃 จัดอาหารได้น่ากินมากๆ กินอาหารได้แซ่บสะใจมากครับ^^*
If there isn't a chicken shop only tour vid in the UK, I know Mike has got to go back again. Nandos might be touristy but chicken shops are just unmatched. Even the Korean town areas in the UK are too good to pass up
Much better fried chicken elsewhere in the world that Mike has already tried
I'll go for the rolls and the salmon crepe cake, I've never seen a salmon layered crepe cake. 😁
the snack bars at harrods were really good and you got luxurious foods cheaper then you would think! try it out if you want something special & high quality but not pay a lot
Mikey, get the rhubarb flavour from that soda company (the apple one at the start) it's mind-bendingly good!
Cawston Press' Rhubarb soda is life!!!
I spent 2 days exploring that food hall! Glad you enjoyed!
So glad you are In the uk! I hope oneday when my channel has grown I’ll be able to do a review with you!
Looking forward to it.
As a British person I love the way you say sausage roll 🥰😂 it’s a British staple
It's so funny that mike's blown away by a sausage roll, since I eat them all the time lol
I love your content so much! Thank you!!!
