Who else lives in North Texas and is glad Mikey is discovering all of these awesome places for us? 🙋🏻♂️
Maybe we can get him to do Denton next????
@@nnakawatase5305 That would be great! Frisco too.
knew about all these places already lmao
@@blaketerry1255 Fair. My little ones make it harder to go explore and find these place. I’ll always appreciate word-of-mouth.
Here here. Whoo!
So glad you liked Nori! my cousin and his business partners are so proud of their quaint little spot. A true labour of love.
you can eat for free
I love the layout, all the best to them!
Congrats to your cousin & partners! The restaurant looks so zen! Luv it!
@@winerednokoro I wish! 🤣
@@plowking813 thank you
I have a love/hate relationship with this channel. I love the videos, Mike's personality and presentation, and especially the food. I hate that i can't have whatever he's eating in front of me to shove in my own face right now! lol.
Same 😭
We found Ramen Izakaya Akira by accident and never looked back. So happy to see it getting the recognition it deserves 🥺
What do you normally get there?
one of the few youtube channels where i'll actually sit through the whole video however long it may be
" that's it?" It's what goes through my mind when the video is over, no matter how long it is.
me 2
i actually got a bit sad if the video ended quickly lol
Same and these mugs like 30 minute
Yup
Just got out of an interview. May the food Gods and Mikey bless me with employment near good takeout.
Best of luck!!!!
good luck!!
Can't depends on luck?
@@Omega65713 alright easy ya Debby Downer 🙄👎🏼👎🏼
Good luck 🍀
Feels weird when you actually recognize the places he's going to now
The chef at ramen Izakaya akira is literally the nicest man in the world. We said absolutely nothing but he felt so bad that we had waited so long to eat his ramen that he gave it to us for free. We left a nice tip and then came back the next day and paid and gave a nice tip again. Truly truly amazing ramen.
Who else is hungry watching Mikey talk about food. I’m drooling! Haha
Always!!!!
Never been happier to live in Dallas with Mikey here! I can actually go to these places not just dream about it. Thanks for trying it all out and giving us Dallas folks that perfect list of where to go :)
Love your videos! So happy to see some of our favorite places and new places we've never seen! Our fav sushi place is Kura, and inside Mitsuwa Sutadonya has a pork bowl that is to die for. It's been a few years but Kazy's had a delicious curry bowl for $2.50 that was unbeatable.
I'm so happy that Mike is showcasing places I can actually reasonably visit with a day trip. Definitely gonna visit a few places this summer.
Mikey eating bowls of hot ramen while never taking off his puffy jacket :D
Is she his future wife?
@@lukevader5814 I would like to know more about this Brenda too? What say you, is this the girlfriend?
mans not hott
Dallas isn't As hot when it gets cold.
yeah i'm taiwanese, and i do not take off my puffy jacket. it wastes precious eating time to take it off
This is so cool! Ichigoh is by far one of my favorite ramen restaurants in Dallas. Their broth is so warm and the pork belly is cooked to perfection 🤤
Welcome to Dallas!!! Glad to have you here. I worked at Ichigoh in Deep Ellum and can definitely say that the owners really appreciate you trying them out. Next time you go, get the Niboshi Shoyu with a side of karami paste. That was my favorite to have for lunch.
I live in dallas and love the impact this video has had on these businesses!
But I wanted to comment mainly because this video influenced us to try Bokksu, with his code, and omgggg! It was such a fun thing to get for yourself, and it’s now all I want to gift others. So yummy. Must try.
Got ramen, beef noodle soups, banh mi, freshly made noodles with shrimps, Cava, KF Tea, mooching donuts, Chinese waffles for lunch & dinner today for the whole family from food halls...Mikey inspired me...👍🧋🍗 🍜
I'm so glad you moved to dallas, ive been living here for 15 years and Ive discovered new places through your videos
I've now set a rule in our house that we can't watch Mikey Chen before dinner - otherwise, we abandon cooking dinner and order ramen, hot pot, pho, or dumplings. Tonight, we failed and ordered ramen
great tip! I'll keep this in mind
Lol I try and watch him after i eat :D
This is the way.
Same!
You could watch while your eating too especially if you’re eating Ramen noodles lol xxx
Your channel has made me way more into exploring food and spots I would've never found before. I have a favorite new pho spot and it's a literal hole in the wall place with terrible parking and cash only, but I go there now because it's so darn good. Best ever had. 😊
omg please share
Knew this was already a good video when I saw Akira on the list. Great owner and glad to see his place still in business
Never been this early. Perfect timing too. Just enjoying watching my fav UA-camr while I’m eating a basic Maruchan imagining it’s the ramen 🍜 Mikey is eating 😭😅
Ramen izakaya Akira is the best ramen I’ve had while living in Dallas he ferments his own spicy miso! So good! Glad you showcased this place!
I love when mikeys happy and around his friends and family ❤️
Watching Mikey’s videos before my finals week for luck. Side note: good luck to anyone else taking finals!! Let’s ace this!!
HELL YEAH !!!!
Oh my gosh... living near that H-mart and seeing you walk through it is so exciting! Also I’ve had my eye on that last Ramen place in Lewisville for quite a while. This video has convinced me to go!
Hey I love your videos and all that you do! Since you are in Dallas I would HIGHLY recommend you give TEN ramen a try. I think you will love the atmosphere and all of the ramen is divine! If you go, try the mazemen ramen.
More than 30 years ago, my husband and I visited his mother in Dallas, TX, I hardly see Asian markets and restaurants there. So happy to see the change.
First time i am this early.. As soon as i saw the video i clicked.. Thankfully i just made myself a big cup of tea❤
I'm glad you live in Dallas I'm super excited to try all the spots you recommend. I've always wanted to try the food in your videos and now I can 😁
Mikey your videos are so nice. Its like going out to eat with a friend. Love watching you do your thing. Good for you.
Thank you for the food, I love your vids and can’t wait to try these places!
As a native Dallasite; I am very glad that you are enjoying my city and the other surrounding cities.🏩🌅🏙🎋🍲🦀
So excited that you tried Wabi House, Ichigoh and Nori! At Wabi house try the karage and Tsukemen! Ichigoh also has great appetizers- loved the pork buns and ribs!
YAYYAAYY!!! Thanks for ur recommendations!!! I go to Dallas so often! I can’t wait to try these new spots!!
Sending all of these Dallas/FW videos to my relatives in Arlington so when I go visit, we try as many places as we can!! I still have 2 packets left of your hot pot soup base that I need them to try too. They are amazing soup bases. I still need to try your chili oil!
Could imagine if Mikey was a stoner how much more food this man would go through
He would also be 40 pounds heavier and the taste of food would be less relevant.
@@TheMasterhomaster that’s incorrect! in fact, i believe he would unlock flavors he never even knew were there . mikey definitely needs to experience edibles of some sort
mmmmmm foood
@@strictlydumpling must try Sprouts Spring Roll and Pho in Arlington! Their fried rice is INSANE and their pho is great! They have a pho challenge, I DARE you to do it!
@@TheMasterhomaster i see you haven’t tried weed before 😅
Me: I can watch this. It’s ok I just ate. *Mikey makes the food look irresistible with the way he eats and describes the food*
Me: I’m starving but I can’t have that exact food he’s eating 😭💔
Lived in Dallas most of my life and I can genuinely say that we have such a diverse asian community and it definitely reflects. I hope he goes to some smaller places!!!!
My kids and I always love your video. I hope you go back to those grocery stores soon and test a bunch of stuff!
when Mikey said he can eat 10 of them. No one doubted him haha
I said, I definitely believe him!
I would like yur comment but its it 69
@@joab7820 haha
Mike -- LOVE the food tours of ... everywhere. I had a good laugh over the name of your Japanese snack box sponsor, Bokksu. Bokksu sounds a lot like the Korean word "Bogsu" -- which means "revenge." Never thought of a box full of treats as revenge -- but now I won't be able to forget it!!
some of y’all really gotta stop “shipping” him w whoever he’s filming with because first of all ~shipping~ real people is weird and creepy because they’re actual humans with actual lives, also, you can be friends w someone from another gender without it automatically being romantic. And I think he’s made it clear that 1) his personal/dating life is his own business and he can story time it with us when he feels comfortable to and not when we try to pressure or pry it out of him, 2) some people he eats with feel uncomfortable being filmed and he respects that so therefore when he’s filming with someone who doesn’t mind , we should still respect their boundaries even if they agree to be on camera or not , and 3) food is the main love of his life :)
lmaoo
How is it weird and creepy? People do it all the time IRL when two people are single, its fine.
@@16xthedetail76 key word “irl” it’s weird bc cuz u don’t know him or them
@@2948jdjdj smh come on now Karen.
Idk what this guy does on his personal time , but you cant be platonic "friends" with the opposite sex.
The only tour guide I need when finally coming to the US is Mike and his videos! My list of restaurants I need to visit will be so much bigger than the time I actually have in the states 😂
I was just thinking of rewatching some sushi videos and then i see this new one! 😁
When you just made some good food and open up youtube after getting work and mike just came on what a perfect timing.
Nori handroll is the best sushi so far I've ever had in Dallas. A MUST try and will come back. Thanks for sharing ramen spots. I definitely try next time in Dallas.
Mikie I’m so happy for you and you got great friends to help you eat good food. Welcome to Texas love from Galveston Texas ❤️
Why Does This Looks So delicious 😭😭 The Way You Eat!!!! So Tempting 😋🤩♥️
I just moved to Texas as well and only an hour away from Dallas you truly have me hyped over here to eat yummy Texas cuisine, Mike!!!
Welcome to North Texas!
*I am actually seeing You more than my friends these days* 🍓💕
Who else is happy the Mikey Chen is here in Dallas!!! So happy, wishing him major success for his restaurant openings! Can't wait.
Glad you went to Akira, it’s a low key spot. Chef makes everything himself like a small ramen spot in Japan.
Even after eating lunch, mike still manages to make me hungry 😂😂
This is an AWESOME channel! I'd love to meet up with you at an HMart to find the best stuff to put into a Hot Pot. I lived in Korea for a year back in the late 90's and fell in love with the food. I've had such a hard time finding authentic asian recipes. We're in McKinney. Great videos!
Mike this is EPIC. I was not interested in going to Dallas until now. Thank you brotha!
"Don't judge a ramen shop by the golf course that's next to it" Truly something to remember in the suburbs of anywhere. :)
So proud of you, Mikey!!! I remember when you refused to eat anything raw. Glad you can enjoy now!
I’ve been watching your videos for years and always hope you would visit Dallas, now your a Texan! Super stoked and hoping I get a chance to bump into you Mike!
Yay! Just moved here last year during the middle of the panorama and now that things are opening up I can try all these!
I will definitely try these places when we go to Dallas! I love ramen! Yes, I love to shop at H-Mart for hot pot!
All of the ramen looked delicious I wish we had anything remotely like this near me in the UK
I love Mike!!! He is real and funny. His videos bring a smile to our face!! Me and my daughter are so happy he moved to Texas!!!
yess! I love wabi house and I'm so glad you guys went there!
I'm going to Dallas in a couple weeks for my birthday I can't wait to try this!!
hahaha every time Mikey puts the camera on Brenda she’s always super focused on something and has to switch gears for the camera.
Who is Brenda? She's been on several videos already.
You can really notice that on the end, where she is focused on the food (i think) and Mike comes near asking about the tomato soup 😂
@@jessicasusie I'm wondering that too
She helps him run the channel. She's a coworker.
@@jessicasusie Brenda worked for the media company that partnered with Mikey on some projects. She was on his team and worked with him. The business relationship with the media company ended, and he subsequently moved to Seattle. He mentioned in one of his videos that he would likely work again with his ex team members like Brenda on future projects. Man I watch way too many of Mikey’s videos. It’s the Strictly Dumpling cinematic universe lol.
Omg I’m so excited for this video!! I live near Dallas and I’m always looking for a good food
I couldn’t agree more! Texas has the best sunset and everyday it is just different but amazing!
I used to work there as a server!! Love the owner chef, Akira. His ramen and appetizers are amazing!!
Welcome to Dallas Mikey. So excited to see your videos eating Texas food... would love to see you making videos on Indian food too , there are so many Indian restaurants in Dallas.. 😀
really good video mikey! gonna check out some of these restaurants with my wife! keep up the great content my man!
I like your tea set and welcome to Dallas!
Watching this dude while Ramadan is pushing me to the limits of self discipline...
Ramen is the best thing during iftar because it takes a while to make it gets you through the last few hours!
I already ate dinner but Mikey’s videos will always make me hungry again. lol 🍜🍲🍣
Welcome to Dallas!! I am so excited to see the cool places you go so I can go too!
Watching this and seeing places I've been to makes it so much cooler!
I love ramen!!! I can’t wait to go to NY to try ramen at your shop! ❤️🍜
So glad to see Brenda, didn't know I missed her on Mikey's channels.
My god, that toro and uni combo. I'm salivating and super jealous! Thanks, Mikey!
I’ve been waiting for this moment 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I never thought I could feel more hungry after a day without food, Mike you prove me wrong every time😂
I never thought I could feel more hungry after a day full of food. And yet here we go 😂
Well yeah I would guess watching a guy eat food after not eating food for a day would make you hungry 😂
Ramadan???
Saaaame x 1000!!
I see I’m not the only one watching Mikes videos during Ramadan 😭
Wabi house is my favorite ramen place in Dallas as of right now!
this is awesome! i live right in between dallas and fort worth, i've gotta give wabi house a shot. thanks for reviewing these locations, mikey!
After you posted this video, I went to check out Ramen Izakaya Akira! Best ramen I've ever had! So glad you moved here so you can recommend these places for me to try!
Omg I love Wabi House! Next time you come to Dallas try Niwa on Main Street! It has amazing Japanese BBQ! Also maybe swing by Carrolton it has a bunch of Korean BBQ and Ramen places!
You’re right about Korean bbq in Carrollton. We went to Gen Korean bbq for my sisters birthday and it was TOO GOOD! (Kinda expensive for me but worth it)
Your videos are free therapys 💜🥺
Why don't we go on this therapy together? 😅
Straight up truth. Never thought about Dallas, like thinking about jerk or dumplings.... Dallas has wtf... Google says 8 hour drive... 10 days fully vax. Thanks Mikey.
Wow!! Welcome to Texas!! I’m excited to see all the places you try here.
Proud of you Mike, enjoying sushi!
OMG HOW DOES IT LOOK SO GOOOOOOD. And this is from an Asian who has noodles and rice almost everyday HAHA
I can't believe you went to 2 of my fave ramen places. I always thought Ichigoh was the best spot in town. I feel my taste buds are vindicated LOL. Now if you go check out Sushi Sake in Richardson, you will make my year. :)
OMFG WABI HOUSE IS THE BEEEEEST. I MISS IT. I don't go into that area of Dallas much these days. Oh nooo you were so close to my new current favorite ramen place when you went to the last one. My favorite ramen place is Higuma Ramen & Izakaya in Addison off Beltline Rd. You have to go and get whatever ramen is your fav but ALSO definitely get the dynamite shrimp. Drooling just thinking about it!
I cant wait to try😍 Thanks Mikey!
Oh I’m watching this hungry.
I will say this, I’ll get better at cooking by watching these. I want to eat everything he comes across lol
You should do a Middle Eastern tour of Richardson!!!!! Btw as an Italian Dallasite I can definitely show you where to go for the best pizza in the city and yes we do have good places!
I enjoyed this and your video trip to Houston . Please next time you are down here please review some of the new ramen shops.
Love your videos!! If you make it back to Houston you should give Ramen Bar Ichi a try, and it’s actually next to a Japanese grocery store with a restaurant in there.
Oh my glob. The Ramen episode! 🤤🤤🤤 let's see if you name any of my favorite spots in Dallas or the DFW area?🤔 This is going to be lit. Pausing this video to get some Ramen to watch you review our Ramen. 🤣😂😏 Yuuuuh.🔥
13:05 - dang Mikey don't put her on the spot, let the poor girl eat LOL!!!! Love that both ya'll are having fun!
Yum!!! That hand roll looked ahhhmazzing!! Food envy 🥲
Mikey been uploading almost every night! And I keep watching before bedtime 😂
