One thing I like Japanese people they believe in cleanliness. There fish wet market, restaurant, streets, always clean. I enjoyed watching there videos because everything are all clean. Some others countries there fish wet market are gross...
It's just a travel strategy that some Americans do because a lot of people hate Americans, but that's something that I heard people only do when visiting Europe.
HIIII!!!!! About the Canadian shirt thing. In my vlog which is not released yet, I had a layover in Vancouver where I talked about how much I love Vancouver and that I needed a Vancouver shirt. So i bought one and just so happens it has a huge Canadian flag on it, thats it. There was no further thought process. And btw I LOVE that shirt! Its soft...you'd be surprised how many shirts just feels like wearing starched up cotton.
I just went to Japan 2 weeks ago for the first time ever and I got to say, I loved the fish market. It was sooo yummy. Plus I got some amazing tips and advice from watching your channel. Such a blessing and also keep up the amazing/awesome job. I would like to inspire and teach others like how you teach me and millions of viewers about food. Much love from Fresno.
Welcome to Tokyo, I know you love street foods, make sure you hit up Omoide Yokocho aka "Memory Lane" hidden spot in Shinjuku with old feel.. awesome cheap food. Enjoy your stay in Tokyo
I've watched far too many of Mike's videos. I love the amount of food Mike can put away and also, the way he dances when he has something *really* good!
wow honestly watching this while going on a diet is extremly hard also because mike makes every food extremly good! love ur vids mike! ur honestly the best and one of my fave youtubers ilysm!
W Locke to Tokyo! That as awesome to watch. Glad you enjoyed this place and the food you tried. I'm the same with you when it comes to sea urchin. Just can't get used to it.
TabiEats you guys should do a video together!! that would be awesome! btw, love ur channel well, loved the live Christmas and looking forward to the live New Years video!! :)
first time watching these guy and i like him so much cuz he is the kind of person that is polite and never gets in trouble or drama and he doesn't care about money but he cares about life so thats why i like this guy.
next time im in tokyo, im gonna get a place next to the market - one visit was not enough..! then ill have the pleasure of passing through it multiple times a day. another good thing to buy at the tsijuki market is a japanese traditionally hand-crafted kitchen knife. beautiful. if you get one expensive, versatile one it will last you a lifetime, and every time you chop and cut you'll enjoy it. worth the money if you like cooking, i think.
Omg I absolutely love your video specially the seafood plate you had in your hand Wow. It be such a big dream come true to visit a place like that. Thanks for sharing. :)
dailydianna he looks so much like Jackie chan it's not even funny. I showed my mom one of his videos and she immediately said Jackie chan had a love child outside somewhere lol
Love watching you and Mark's videos!!! I think it's because you guys are so courteous to your host countries and just make everything look amazing!!! Maybe a video with food ranger too!!! That would be an awesome episode!!!
Can't help but notice that you are very American, which is a good thing. You're very open, expressive, and friendly but you also totally stand out amongst the Japanese. You may look East Asian but your language and attitude showed that you had more of a western upbringing. I don't mean to offend it's just something I've come to notice being a hafu in Japan
koushinproductions I had urchin here in Tsikiji market, Tokyo, but It tasted like iron to me :/ They said that I should go to Hokkaido. The urchin in Hokkaido is different and more creamy with light yellow color. I hope that I can try it again in Hokkaido. I don't give up.
Mike, I've always dreamed about going to Japan and just stay at that market for a day. Like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I just don't like traveling alone.
Hi Mike..... Big fan of ur channel and ur food escapades around the world. Your love for spicy food is something that i share. U have covered a lot of countries and many thanks for educating me on the various cuisines those countries offer I would personally love to see you doing a culinary tour of India.... With so much diversity to offer i think u will be amazed at the food vatiety available in the sub continent
We Need To get You Your own Film Crew Mike You Rock love your Cooking videos you Helped me cook and put Down Dinner Dates like a Boss👍 love 3 cups Chicken
I watched sooo many food bloggers, but you're the most interesting. You can eat different foods in 1 video. You show many too. I watch Mark Wen all day in my salon. From now on, just your. Thump up
"I learned my Japanese through anime" Bruh, I'm so confused cuz a lot of Japanese people will say that the Japanese that comes from anime is usually wrong but then this guy survived the day just using what he learned from anime. Also, the vendors there spoke a little English, so I give them props for being dedicated and considerate.
I'm a Japanese. We have both. Dashi Maki Tamago, which is served at Izakaya, is normally salty and it's a kind of appetizer going with alcohol drinks. Also, it varies depending on the region.
Nanako Mine well, i work with sushi and with tamago in relation to that, its almost always sweet. considering Mike's at a fish market, he should expect sweet tamago
Love it that you are honest about what foods you like or not. But can't help but thinking when watching you eat the really good ones, that you should get a room.
Those sushi temples with the long lines are some of the best anywhere. I made it into Sushi Dai in 20 minutes at lunch. It was Saturday. Beyond description. It was like a church - we were afraid to talk. But they were friendly. Keep ‘em coming.
i dont know you're a man with some super power or just a vlogger but last time when i was planning to go Taipei, Taiwan. your vlogs give me some small guide for food adventure, and couple weeks ago, i start to plan my japan trip and again you gudie me there. Thanks Mikey
"I feel like the ocean threw up in my mouth." Same thing I was thinking when I got a deepfried Seastar in my Calamari at a cheap fish shack. Bottom of the ocean tasting. Not good.
American know how to cook ? Other than boiling potatoes and corn , there's not much american can do. They hang out at walwart and heats up waffles for breakfast , arrogant idiots all.
That crab paste according to my Japanese friend at work is actually Crab "guts" which are creamed and then served in a shell... it is actually an Okinawan specialty and generally only older generations like it... (it was very popular in 1980's)
"this crab is a prime example of why you should be yourself" lol beautiful
Geo Tapia i thought he was telling me to *ahem* "beat" myself
Actually I was thinking “you should be yourself if you’re delicious or beautiful”
I love it
Beautiful crab
That’s what made me hit subscribe
One thing I like Japanese people they believe in cleanliness. There fish wet market, restaurant, streets, always clean. I enjoyed watching there videos because everything are all clean. Some others countries there fish wet market are gross...
Yea, most asian fish markets stink except for Japanese and Korean market
@@minhhangtranthi2211 Korean is relatively cleaner but not very.
CHAWRAK Axom nah Korea is more dirty than japan. I’ve been to both places however korea is definitely cleaner than America!
@@minhhangtranthi2211 try the Indian local meat and fish market you can't survive the smell-😔
The cleanliness of a lot of other countries is so horrible you would wanna puke the moment u step in
"This crab is the prime example of why you should just be yourself" thank you for the life changing advice. I aim to be a delicious crab now.
“I feel like the ocean threw up in my mouth.” 😂
The adventures of young Jackie Chan Chronicles
No, of young Mikey Chen.
Alucard 888 I think also he looks like jackie chan
C H to be honest the more I watch his videos the less he looks like Jackie Chan
Sgpp I'm Chinese. he looks like Jackie Chan. but VERY jacked
but it's not like a EXACTLY look like Jackie but more of the nose and facial ridges.
Priceless reactions. He deserves to be payed by advertising these delicious food
He will be bigger then Anthony Bordain some day
You got your wish. Now he doesn't give genuine reviews.
Gotta wear the Canada shirt when abroad so people don't think you're American :P
Charmanderaznable Real Talk they won't try to Steal your kindney aye🇨🇦
Charmanderaznable in Tokyo?
Why? I dont get it? lol. Im Australian but I love repping Sydney
It's just a travel strategy that some Americans do because a lot of people hate Americans, but that's something that I heard people only do when visiting Europe.
Now, you guys have endangered Canadians.
I love any kind of seafood. Uni, Ikura, Meguro, Crabs, Clams, you name it. Can't wait to go back to Tsukiji; spend the whole weekend there.
I wish I could travel the world and eat food on youtube.
MakoRuu Me too!!! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
dream job
Make it happen then. You can do it :D
Robert Andrews really? how? leave my kids, my house?
take 'em with ya ;-) (maybe not the house)

Love your videos Mikey! When I watch your blogs it feels like I'm hanging with a friend. Love your Canadian shirt too! :D
Strictly Dumpling Jackie chan?
I actually saw you at the Nishiki market in Kyoto, but didn't get to say hi because it was so crowded then
I also hate Sea Urchin, where are you from Mikey?
The funny thing is, you seem to look like a typical Japanese person but have more incomen with Johny the cowboy. ^^
Anyone else sitting watching this thinking "Wow, I wish someone would love me as deeply as Mike loves food"? xD
"all the japanese I know I learned from watching anime" relatable af
Best quote 2k16!
kaixing's only the most used phrases in every anime

So happy you finally went to Japan. Been wanting to go there my whole liiiiiiiife.
He's been travelling so so much lately - so jealous! Pleased for him though :)
CarrionSmile get ready to bring lots of money bc hotels n eating at restaurants are expensive in Japan ! !
I know, right? I have to take out a loan just to buy a piece of fruit in Japan. haha
So you were watching this video vicariously?
That “seafood platter” on the shell is everything!!!! The sea urchin looks good as well!!!!
Welcome to Tokyo, I know you love street foods, make sure you hit up Omoide Yokocho aka "Memory Lane" hidden spot in Shinjuku with old feel.. awesome cheap food. Enjoy your stay in Tokyo
I work there. Lots of foreigners but very friendly people!
0:04 a Yakusa just casually walking
Green Hemp you forgot the ten ten :P
Looks like he straight up jumped from a cartoon
*Yakuza. And yes they do casually walk. Or hang out in Kabukicho (Shinjuku red light district).
They may be gang members. But I say, they might be friendly if you don't cross them
he’s just a dude wearing a suit
I've watched far too many of Mike's videos. I love the amount of food Mike can put away and also, the way he dances when he has something *really* good!
strawberry mochi is called daifuku by the way. Also the stuff in the crab shell is basically every part of the crab ground up into a paste.
Sena-san thank you. Was curious.
Raj Jb Go be a creep somewhere else. Every time you commeted you were greasy and slimy, you come off as desperate.
MsCherade9 Hahahahaha
Sena-san how much ¥does it take to equal $1.00 USD?
eLem3nT about 115
yen is around a dollar in US currency.
This is why Japan is one of my favorite places to visit.
Welcome to Japan, Mike! Jump on the train for 30 minutes and let me show you around my hometown of Kamakura!
I wanna go to Japan right now lol
wow honestly watching this while going on a diet is extremly hard also because mike makes every food extremly good! love ur vids mike! ur honestly the best and one of my fave youtubers ilysm!
First of all, welcome to Tokyo :D glad you are enjoying it and idk if it's just me but the way you eat your food makes it look extra good lol!

Kawaii
"I can throw this across the street right now and destroy a building."
LOL😂
Your videos always make my mouth water. Glad you enjoyed Tsukiji!
Tamago is always slightly (or more than slightly) sweet. So you got the real stuff.
W Locke to Tokyo! That as awesome to watch. Glad you enjoyed this place and the food you tried. I'm the same with you when it comes to sea urchin. Just can't get used to it.
TabiEats I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!!!
TabiEats you guys should do a video together!! that would be awesome! btw, love ur channel well, loved the live Christmas and looking forward to the live New Years video!! :)
TabiEats
I just mentioned that Mike should hook up with you guys. Would make an awesome video.
Omg TabiEats!! I was just thinking that he should definitely hit you guys up while over there! :D
Omg yay tabieats!! Love your channel guys!!
Good on you bro I follow other channels of yours. I love your authenticity. You tell it like it is, refreshing.
Lmao. I love all the stares that Mike gets when he vlogs.
Raj Jb Wtf is wrong with you...
first time watching these guy and i like him so much cuz he is the kind of person that is polite and never gets in trouble or drama and he doesn't care about money but he cares about life so thats why i like this guy.
Everything you ate... 😍
hyuneeEats I JUST CAME FROM YOUR CHANNEL!
Hyunee😍💓
Who knew she was here and why only 2 (3 now) comments
Hi
“I feel like the ocean threw up in my mouth.” 😂
next time im in tokyo, im gonna get a place next to the market - one visit was not enough..! then ill have the pleasure of passing through it multiple times a day.
another good thing to buy at the tsijuki market is a japanese traditionally hand-crafted kitchen knife. beautiful. if you get one expensive, versatile one it will last you a lifetime, and every time you chop and cut you'll enjoy it. worth the money if you like cooking, i think.
Omg I absolutely love your video specially the seafood plate you had in your hand Wow. It be such a big dream come true to visit a place like that. Thanks for sharing. :)
Mikes reaction to food is awesome so authentic and love his honesty! Another great video!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
If you want to see the fish auction, you probably need to get there before dawn.
that would still be too late. 3am.
ino12badayu Probably so, as most auction ended before dawn. Anyhow, I would trade the mochi for a chirashi don.
I'm going to Japan within this year and I think your video is really helpful for me.
thank you!
The passion when he described that crab xD
I was not expecting a "be yourself" speech when I clicked on this video. It was surprising and delightful. I really like your food inspired advice.
The brown goo is crab tomalley, part of the crab itself, and considered a delicacy. And yes, there's sugar and sometimes mirin in tamagoyaki.
I absolutely love the video quality!! Love watching you Mike!!
Im surprised no one ran up to you thinking you're Jackie chan!
he doesn't even look like jackie chan....
dailydianna he looks so much like Jackie chan it's not even funny. I showed my mom one of his videos and she immediately said Jackie chan had a love child outside somewhere lol
dailydianna he does look like his relative
LMAO i thought i was the only one who thinks that!
WiseguyRaven
Love watching you and Mark's videos!!! I think it's because you guys are so courteous to your host countries and just make everything look amazing!!! Maybe a video with food ranger too!!! That would be an awesome episode!!!
"lemme just shove the strawberry deeper into the mochi" ;) ;)
Dirty minded ;);)
I am back at the good side of the internet got stuck on the side with food I won't touch, this channel literally makes my mouth water!!!
Mikey: "I feel like the ocean threw up in my mouth." Lol!
I've been binge watching all of Mike's videos the last couple days. I would expect no less of a personality from someone who has the name Mike!
i love how every single person in the background is like O_O
Can't help but notice that you are very American, which is a good thing. You're very open, expressive, and friendly but you also totally stand out amongst the Japanese. You may look East Asian but your language and attitude showed that you had more of a western upbringing. I don't mean to offend it's just something I've come to notice being a hafu in Japan
You're reaction to sea urchin reminds me of my reaction to shrimp. Everyone else loves it but I cannot get past the texture.
When you realize Mike's view rose up from 2 grand to 300 grand 😱😭🙏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Im so Proud
I love sea urchin, don't know why it tasted like that for you, it tasted a very creamy salty egg yolk for me. But hey taste is subjective :).
koushinproductions me too. I think it's yummy
This is a stab in the dark, but are you from Scandinavia?
koushinproductions I had urchin here in Tsikiji market, Tokyo, but It tasted like iron to me :/ They said that I should go to Hokkaido. The urchin in Hokkaido is different and more creamy with light yellow color. I hope that I can try it again in Hokkaido. I don't give up.
Watching this while waiting for my frozen microwave mac and cheese to cook is just depressing lol
it is high quality & expensive street food ,you know .
Whenever i feel starving I just watch your clips and i'm full already. Nice job mikey cheng. More videos please.
i love sea urchin! personally, it is best for me eating with rice
zjjca i also love sea urchin, freshly grated wasabi and soya sauce and a little citrus and I’m in heaven
I love sea urchin too! In Fiji we make a lemon and chilli dip/sauce and eat it with either taro or cassava. It’s amazing!
Mike, I've always dreamed about going to Japan and just stay at that market for a day. Like breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I just don't like traveling alone.
Grilled scallop with uni ?!?!? 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
One of the best channels on UA-cam... Awesome videos.
When you are walking it looks like you are a giant.
Justin Y. Wild to see you without 2.4k likes
Marnige Justin y does not not tho
Lol I thought you mean Asians are shorter but it is the camera. Btw I realized Mike Chan is Asian as well
Hi Mike.....
Big fan of ur channel and ur food escapades around the world.
Your love for spicy food is something that i share.
U have covered a lot of countries and many thanks for educating me on the various cuisines those countries offer
I would personally love to see you doing a culinary tour of India.... With so much diversity to offer i think u will be amazed at the food vatiety available in the sub continent
*O . . . M . . . G ! ! ! that mochi looks so good !* *Mango to "Top It" !* ☺💯✊👌👍✌
Can't believe this is 6years video, I still remember the first time I watch this is the day it's upload.
We Need To get You Your own Film Crew Mike You Rock love your Cooking videos you Helped me cook and put Down Dinner Dates like a Boss👍 love 3 cups Chicken
Raj Jb Your not invited anyways No 🐐👉👌 Allowed
Raj Jb right here my Friend 💩
Raj Jb it Was Them!
You're not going to squeeze a film crew in a market bruh.
I want to visit this place one day. So many unique foods. Japan has some of the freshest food & good in quality. Thank you for your review!
it looked like Jackie chan in the thumbnail
Asian Jeremy Renner.
I watched sooo many food bloggers, but you're the most interesting. You can eat different foods in 1 video. You show many too. I watch Mark Wen all day in my salon. From now on, just your. Thump up
Cut all locks amazing. Where's your hot oil? LOL
I get so much joy out of watching Mike getting so excited when eating haha!
"I learned my Japanese through anime"
Bruh, I'm so confused cuz a lot of Japanese people will say that the Japanese that comes from anime is usually wrong but then this guy survived the day just using what he learned from anime. Also, the vendors there spoke a little English, so I give them props for being dedicated and considerate.
Yeah i learn japanese in school, im so dissipointed that my anime knowledge not helping at all
I think Japanese in anime sounds too theatrical.
Mike is SO adorable eating all this foods. His face while eating oyster s is amazing haha
tamago is supposed to be sweet
I was surprised he didn't know that. It's usually slightly to mildly sweet, though, and maybe what he got was a lot sweeter than normal.
tomago literally just means "grilled egg" you can make it sweet or salty or whatever the f u want.
idol hands it is traditionally sweet because tamago is typically a meal ender, like a dinner mint
I'm a Japanese. We have both. Dashi Maki Tamago, which is served at Izakaya, is normally salty and it's a kind of appetizer going with alcohol drinks. Also, it varies depending on the region.
Nanako Mine well, i work with sushi and with tamago in relation to that, its almost always sweet. considering Mike's at a fish market, he should expect sweet tamago
Love it that you are honest about what foods you like or not. But can't help but thinking when watching you eat the really good ones, that you should get a room.
how do you order food when u dont know the language? just point and make grunts?
Most education systems in other countries are required to teach english.
Most of the vendors there can speak some amount of English, .....it is a tourist place
*In the manliest voice ever*
"Sugoi desu onii-chan. Kawaii desu chan. Kawaii kawaii"
Most Japanese understand English, they are shy a bit lol - In some ramen shop, you just order with a machine, hand ticket over....smile.
There are posters and price tags and everyone understands simple pointing and other hand gestures.
Those sushi temples with the long lines are some of the best anywhere. I made it into Sushi Dai in 20 minutes at lunch. It was Saturday. Beyond description. It was like a church - we were afraid to talk. But they were friendly. Keep ‘em coming.
Ummmm ya I subscribed halfway through this video.
I love your energy.
I'd spend like 400 dollars HERE ALONE! It all looks so beautiful and fresh.
Ye its as expensive as it is good
i dont know you're a man with some super power or just a vlogger but last time when i was planning to go Taipei, Taiwan. your vlogs give me some small guide for food adventure, and couple weeks ago, i start to plan my japan trip and again you gudie me there. Thanks Mikey
"I feel like the ocean threw up in my mouth."
Same thing I was thinking when I got a deepfried Seastar in my Calamari at a cheap fish shack. Bottom of the ocean tasting. Not good.
you're awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! i can't wait to go to japan in october :D loves your vlogs! - corgisaan
I dont care im moving to japan
Thank you for these food tours. Now I know where to go eat when I go on holiday in Japan!!!
"it tasted like a gulp of seawater" lol its the uni
I Like How He Gets So Excited After Tasting His Food.
The ocean called. They’re running out of shrimp
Well the jerk store called, and they're running out of you.
williamschaffer123 what’s the difference? You’re their all time best seller!
Lol maybe no one else gets these Seinfield refs
7pc0
Another awesome vlog!
I feel you on the sea urchin thing and seared scallop in Japan is so amazing. I can eat like 10!
Please go to Coco Curry!
Mike is so entertaining to watch, love it!
What street are you in cause I might go there by next year, so I want to experience what you are experiencing in the vid.
This was exciting to watch! Just found you on UA-cam, thanks Mike!
Yeah, I'm not into uni either... tastes like seawater
Mike chan born for one mission is to eat all the food in this world and out of this world.
Japanese food, much better than US's..
Maksim Li that is so true ! !
Maksim Li Any food is better than greasy Burgers and Pizza..
American know how to cook ? Other than boiling potatoes and corn , there's not much american can do.
They hang out at walwart and heats up waffles for breakfast , arrogant idiots all.
sky walker the fact that you thinks that all we do lmfaooo
sky walker that's not the case at all
That crab paste according to my Japanese friend at work is actually Crab "guts" which are creamed and then served in a shell... it is actually an Okinawan specialty and generally only older generations like it... (it was very popular in 1980's)
We eat crab guts in Brazil too, it's delicious
I need to start traveling to asian countries..
So this was when Mikey started loving crab and shrimp tomalley. Amazing that he loves sea urchin now as well.
No one.
Absolutly no one.
Me: shits in a crab shell
Mike: its brown its gooey and in a crab shell......Aight I'll try it
Just found your channel, I really love food and seeing other cultures food. Great channel! New subscriber! 😁👍🏼
“I need this to kinda wash the ocean from my mouth”
-gets served heated sea water
steezymiguel that's a type of green tea, not sea water....
clearest quality video ever! greatly enjoyed
