I love how excited your mom gets about fishing and food. It just really warms my heart. Also, all the food just looks so amazing and yummy!!! Keep up the great work!
Oh my god, I love your mom and the Friendship you both have! Seeing this video made me missed my mommy so much, i lost her almost 10 years ago but i can imagine making something like this with her. Please keep this videos coming, the food looks delishhhh and it’s just comforting and amazing. Big hug for you and your mommy
your mom's excitement reflects in her eyes, she sounds very cute and goofy when she goes something she like. i love how she likes to film with you. please keep making videos with her and i hope your channel keeps growing. the food i would like to try is shushi and blueberry strudle, overall everything looks appetizing. thank you for sharing food with us.
Aww I love watching you and your mom. My mom passed 2 years ago. Watching you guys makes me reminisce all the amazing adventures I had with my mom. She was my best friend.
@@jfranklin9549 She’s a foodie like me. My mom having a hand in 2 family ran restaurants when I was growing up we ate a lot of Chinese family meals at the restaurant so for our treat meal my mother loved American fried chicken so it would be the Korean fried chicken!
Seeing the joy in your mom's face makes my heart so happy, she reminds me of my mom just totally loving life💛 i live in Carmel, Akaoni is such a special hidden gem! Next time you're here you need to try Flying Fish Grill for Japanese & Il Tegamino for Italian!!
MOM is too adorable! I wish we could’ve seen her catch a big fish and do a happy dance. My husband and I travel from LA to Carmel and Monterey often, we have visited some of these places and I couldn’t agree more with the first sushi spot. So disappointing! If you’re there and you have a special occasion type late lunch / dinner fifth and Dolores is one of our favorite spots. And we never go to Monterey and skip an Ike‘s sandwich 😍 I will be adding some of these to my list of places to try.
WE ❤ YOU AND YOUR VIDEOS! It was also nice seeing you with your mommy! My hubby would love to try the lilikoi dessert! And me, i love your videos in hawaii! My husband grew up there, he already took me three times that i loved it so now our backyard is a Hawaiian theme!
I love the vids of u n ur mom. she's so sweet and always happy. I think the food that looked the best to me was the plate of ur mommy from her fave restaurant. that looked so good. so many good things in one plate.
I was born & raised in Monterey & live in Salinas. I totally loved this video & have so many more places to recommend for you to try out here! My favorite part of this video was watching your mom go fishing, that used to be my favorite childhood pastime with my mom. I haven’t been fishing in Monterey since my youth. I also enjoyed watching your sushi tasting at Akaoni, I need to try that place! Ooooh, Ube waffles!😍 I hear they are amazing!!!!💜
Ttobongee! I’ve never seen a rice cake sausage skewer! Also gotta check out that second sushi spot. Surprised to see so much good Asian food in Monterey. Can’t wait to check them out on my next staycation 😊
Absolutely the BEST!!! No skimp on the chocolate in PAVEL'S Chocolate Croissants! I think there might be an entire bar in each one. Super giving to the community too!
These videos MAKE my day!! Love watching you and your mom so very much and the way your mom really thinks and then describes what she tastes is a hoot 😆🥰
Have you ever been to Phil's Fish Market in Moss Landing? We always went there whenever in Monterey. Also, your mom fishing is adorbs. Love seeing you two spend time together.
The food that you tried was delicious I tried there blueberries pancake before and it was so good with the sauce I really liked it and I was glad that you and your mom really liked it
mom’s are amazing people. thanks for sharing her! just love you and all your videos! i have to say hands down my favorite food in this video was the lilikoi pie 🥧❣️
Loved this video never know what spots to hit up when I spend the day in Monterey. Definitely gonna check out that breakfast spot first awakenings. Also gotta try that sushi place akaoni . Know it's gonna be good if you were tearing up. You and your mom are the best.
I grew up in Monterey and my whole family still lives there. I love your mom saying where did they get this fish? right outside! so fresh and I didn’t realize how special of a place it is until I left 💙 I appreciate this video thank you
I am completely living vicariously through you and your momma, my mouth is watering at your reactions and descriptions of akaoni🤤.. I'm from Canada, but I'd take the next flight out just to stop there.
My daughter introduced me to your channel through this video. Love that you include your mom's input. The interaction between you two was fun to watch. Monterey is one of our day trip destinations and it was fun to see some of our favorites featured.
You two are so cute, and your in our favorite spot. We have a time share in marina so we go often but I do most of our cooking. Will have to try all these places.
i think this may be one of my most FAVORITE videos with your mom ever!! she is so so so genuinely happy and so cute! definitely going to that sushi place asap, i love when the fish is so good you could cry😭🩷
In Argentina is call alfares de Maizena (cornstarch alfajor), that is cornstarch cookies with milk caramel between the cookies and battered in coconuts
It’s great to see you in my area! I hope you come fishing with your mom again, I’d love to know more about what she catches and how she prepares her catch. If you’re interested in a little Mexican food tour, you could check out Seaside. We have some great Mexican places for mariscos, Oaxacan food, and other good stuff.
I live in the Central Valley, my husband and I often travel to Monterey, especially during this crazy valley heat! We usually just go to the wharf and cannery row. We do go to Seaside to do some shopping. What restaurants do you recommend for Mariscos?
Hello. I live in the Monterey Peninsula and really enjoyed watching you tour my familiar places and you showing me around some new tips to try. Great work! Thanks for sharing! I think I would like yo try the first awakenings eggs benedict; your mom's style.
Love this! I never know where to eat when I visit new places as I tend to focus more on activities instead of food, but now I have a list of places to try, so thank you! also, your mum is so cute!
I was planning to do a road trip down Pacific Coast Hwy for my birthday this September, this is perfect! I love when your mom is in videos, she's so sweet, and I love your food adventures together! 🥰
Just fyi you can’t go all the way through Big Sur bc there was a landslide a few years ago! So you have to take 101 which is just boring country roads basically! But u can still get halfway through
You really did choose some of the best places we have in the area! Parker lusseau and Alta are yummy, but the locals secret is getting to pavels backerei in PG at its 7am opening.
@@ericacampbell6856 You've gotta set your alarm for 6:45AM early next Saturday. I think it's pretty fun to wait in line, plus the sun's been rising pretty early so you won't have to wait in the dark :D
I love your Mom❤️❤️❤️You guys are the cutest pair! Cheers! Thank you for this video. Now we know where to go for some great food in Monterey, PG. Pangea Grill in Carmel is our favorite. ❤️ More videos please🥰
Going to the Monterey Bay to have lunch or eat a meal is such a fun experience! There are so many great places to eat, or even to just walk around and talk. Especially at the Wharf or on Cannery Row! Love it! Great video too....your mom is adorable lol
Wow thanks for checking these places out. I haven’t been to the Monterey area in years. I always thought the food was touristy but you found some nice places
Loved your fun reviews with your mom! I’ve lived on the Monterey Peninsula over 55 years & I’ve never eaten so much in 2 days as I did watching you two. 😋
omg, this is my first time seeing your video and I met your mom in person. she's fishing where I fished. I believe she went fishing both days during the time y'all at Monterey. Love your video btw!!!
So glad to see you in my area, Monterey is such a hidden gem! If you like Mediterranean food Paprika Café is the best in the area.. the pistachio baklava is incredible and the owner of the place is super nice! I do suggest that you take the food to-go though as the outside patio is a little cramped.
We were thinking of going to Monterey tomorrow and my family found your vid. Wow. You made me so hungry. I love TJ's ube mochi mix too. My favorite was your French toast, almond croissants and that lilikoi pie looked AMAZING. Thanks for this vlog. Loved it!
I definitely am adding Monterey to my list of things to do. I am new to fishing and love sweets. I love to see you two eat and have fun together. Thanks for sharing. 🙏🏻
I can’t believe you’re asking us to pick ONE favorite since everything looked so delicious!! For sweet: almond croissant and that lilikoi pie. For savory: the nigiri and sashimi from akaoni (you guys made that look like heaven in your mouth) and mom’s food hack eggs Benedict. But since you’re only asking for ONE, Akaoni!!! Specially the uni nigiri! @MissNellNieto I recently found your channel about a week ago and I wish I found you sooner! I love your relationship with your mom, how we get two different reviews, your food places are places I can travel to (Bay Area native), food preferences are similar to mine(except I LOVE ginger and you don’t lol), and you just have quality and informational videos. Keep up the great work! I still have to watch all your videos but if you haven’t yet, you should do a foodieventure in Carlsbad, CA. I’d love to see what places you know of or will discover for us.
8:06 God bless you guys for this footage. I'm actually planning on moving back to the area and it's good to be reminded of just how beautiful the area is and how blessed I am to be able to go back!
Oh so hard to choose a favorite, but the almond croissant and passionfruit dessert and your favorite sushi! Thanks so much for inviting your sweet mom along! What a fun trip! Loved to see your mom fishing too!
The breakfast club in Del Rey Oaks is my family’s Go 2! Alottt of my family members have worked there over the years and we always have our big family meet ups whenever we’re in town. The food and atmosphere just reminds me of my family and is near and dear to my heart. I also used to go to school in Salinas so First Awakenings was another go 2!
I was there 2 weeks ago. Too bad I missed you and your mom! I really love watching her. We didn’t go to the cafes. I would like to try the almond croissant next time. Good luck Meimei!
Love ya both! The almond croissant, sushi part 2, and the smoked salmon plus potato pancake looks so good. The carnitas breakfast plate and hack was pretty dang good too!
Don't forget to enter the giveaway for Ube Mochi Pancakes (instructions at the end of the video) !!!! Love y'all and good luck! 💜

As a Monterey native, I recommend Rosine's for Italian food and La Casa De Sazon (Tyler Street next to Alvarado St) for authentic Mexican food!
Casa de El sazón is delicious
I never been to those food places and I lived in Monterey my whole life it's also kinda cool seeing videos from over here
Rosine’s is a tourist trap. NOT great food anymore (as of September 2022), BUT there cakes are amazing!
"mom that's the exit." haha a classic mom moment 😂 love your channel and your mom
I love how excited your mom gets about fishing and food. It just really warms my heart. Also, all the food just looks so amazing and yummy!!! Keep up the great work!
Oh my gosh, mom at 4:00 was so cute when she realized she forgot to cheers!

Seeing this video made me missed my mommy so much, i lost her almost 10 years ago but i can imagine making something like this with her. Please keep this videos coming, the food looks delishhhh and it’s just comforting and amazing.
Big hug for you and your mommy
your mom's excitement reflects in her eyes, she sounds very cute and goofy when she goes something she like. i love how she likes to film with you. please keep making videos with her and i hope your channel keeps growing. the food i would like to try is shushi and blueberry strudle, overall everything looks appetizing. thank you for sharing food with us.
Your mom is so cute! I love the relationship you and your mom have.
Aww I love watching you and your mom. My mom passed 2 years ago. Watching you guys makes me reminisce all the amazing adventures I had with my mom. She was my best friend.
What food would your mom have liked from the video?

Coming from a local, you need to hit up from scratch in Carmel and the butter house in seaside on your next visit
K like everyone loves your Mom. Love it. Give her a big hug. Lol. So happy I found this channel.

Pavels bakery in Pacific grove is to die for, they’re always sold out within a few hours. You should definitely add it to your list! ❤️
Yes, but they probably needed to go to a bakery that was open. 😢
