  • I had one of the best Korean seafood pancakes in New York!! Later that day I flew out to Chicago for some more food! And then I flew back to New York. After a long travel journey, on my way back home, I got hungry. So I thought I'd show you some home cooking! Watch the end to see what I made. :-) Also, check out Herrine's page @rinnny_ from INSIDER.

      But Gary Holland is not entirely wrong either. Mikey’s genetics probably allow him to digest most of the food fairly quickly regardless of age. I was always chubby growing up and I didn’t even eat a lot. I had to cut half my caloric intake when I turned 32.

      He was like working out while most of people are sleeping at 5 o'clock (I once see from a video when he was in Vietnam, he was running outside while the sky still dark) . You can see the result from his muscles, they are thick and hard, definitely different from non-work out people.

    Hi Mikey. I absolutely LOVE watching your videos, they're ALWAYS great videos!!! The problem I have is where I live. I live in a small city named Rouyn Noranda in northern Quebec (Where POUTINE originated from :D ) where the only type of restaurants are pizza,burgers and of course POUTINE!! I grew up in a big city where I was surrounded by many different cultures and many types of restaurants. I miss that SO MUCH!! Being able to go to restaurants and order out food with different flavors from different cultures is something I enjoy ...well,..just as much as you do :D . When I watch you eat, it's obvious how much you're enjoying the food. You've basically become my source to food from other cultures, so thank you for that. :)
    I miss being able to enjoy foods like that...I miss it SO much!! ANd let's face it...making it yourself,at home IMO...just doesn't compare. lol
    Thank you so much for all the hard work and long hours that you put into your videos to take us along all the awesome food and traveling journey's you go on.
    Wishing you all the best. :)
