I love that you take a moment after biting into something before making a judgment, also love that you don't pretend to like everything. I always look forward to your content. Cheers
Exactly! And not like some others I’ve seen who are trying something new to them and are like, “WTF is-“ GULP (HUGE BITE or Entire item) “-WAS that??!” No respect! Respect the food! Give food a chance! Lol 😂
It is one of my dreams to visit Japan. Until then I will continue to binge watch every vlog you do in Japan! Thank you for bringing us along on all of your amazing travels.
Mikey uuuugh I’ve been waiting for your hot oil for soooo long I’m so excited! Glad to see you’re still working on it! I’ll be one of your first customers. I got massively into hot oil because of you, I can’t wait to see what a hot oil you yourself reccomend will be like~
I ALWAYS watch your video's but typically don't comment. I had to though after seeing the Veggie restaurant. Those sauteed mushrooms and the cabbage with the cream sauce looked AMAZING! Would love to try those!!!
I seriously LOVE your Japan Seven-Eleven, and Lawson food videos so much! Idk why they are just so entertaining to watch. Would love another full episode on one of them
Family Mart actually has the best fried chicken out of the main 3 convenience store chains. They call it Famichicki for short and it is so good and cheap! It is boneless, so it is like eating a huge chicken nugget. I recommend the spicy one (not really spicy but has more taste) The original is worth trying as well. Last time I checked it costs just under ¥200 ($2.00 US). You should try it the next time you are in Japan! Love the videos Mike, keep them up!
I absolutely love your channel! After losing all major food travel hosts on cable TV (Andrew Zimmerman, Anthony bourdain, and many others) I am so happy to have you still traveling and doing what you do! Thank you
How can you not love family mart?? I have you never tried their hot foods?! The croquettes and famichiki (fried chicken) is what I come back to Japan for!
That veggie buffet place looks amazing! I'm not even vegetarian but I think those people who hate vegetables just never had well prepared veggies. If you know how to cook the veggies they can taste amazing.
@@vivida7160 No you don't, I'm referring to those people who call themselves meat eaters and hate on vegetarian and vegan dishes as if they're offensive
I honestly didn’t even realize Mike had a second channel for his actual vlogs. I’ve been binging strictly dumpling vids for the past few months and have crossed over to this vlog channel without realizing it apparently many times. I guess you can say once I see Mikes face and food in the thumbnail I click and I don’t read the channel name. I don’t know why I finally paid attention tonight but I’m glad cause now I’m gonna get double notifications for the Hot Oil, Hot Pot, Ramen, Buffet, and Dumpling King.
@@503945158 that's definitely not all they want, they just put up with that and don't demand better bc the culture there is to just deal with what you're given.
7-11's cater their food towards American demands. Family Mart tried to bring the Japanese conbini to Los Angeles and it didn't go very well. At one time they had about 8 stores and they closed after about 3 years.
OMG MIKEY i just got my tonsils out yesterday and you are my Light of Hope, it makes me sad seeing you eat when i can't. But you brighten my day and my mood.
Kyoto. Favorite city in the world. Great food, culture, and interesting architecture. Still, always good to leave the city for a ryokan in the country.
Mikey what a amazing video..The food was delicious from the Yakisoba to the fried rice ..Every time I get a notification for your channels it’s like instant happiness ,Your the best..xx💗😘...xx
i've been to seven eleven in japan and its amazing they out lots of love and care into the meals, i had seven eleven for breakfast everyday it was that good.
I love making a simple okonomiyaki at home. great way to just use up bits and pieces of veggies, or small portions of various meats, and it comes together really quick!
I just ordered a pizza for dinner...and I'm watching this. Actually this may have given me some inspiration on what to do for my wife's birthday. Thank you Mikey.
all not bad suggestions guys... But no, a japanese place not far from me. We went there for AYCE buffet and the food was good, but while there I noticed they had teppanyaki. The misses and I did teppanyaki on a cruise so I know she'll like it. Maybe an umbrell and 7-Eleven dinner next year.
Since I’m home bound and enjoy all cuisines,I live vicariously through your food descriptions. Those yolks were gorgeous! I know since my Son raises (organic) chickens here in upstate NY. That orange 😋. You’re so descriptive,enjoying,and adorable! How do you remain so fit? ❤️
at 12:13 Mikey himself considered it inappropriate. It is inappropriate! How dare you film that sexy yolk running down towards that good looking rice. Reported for nsfw video. It makes anyone hungry.
I’m going to write Mike a song because I love this guy so much! If I’m Rice, then his videos make me happy, and you know what they say about happy rice!
Japanese does have the most weirdest and coolest stuff tho so not surprised at the locked umbrella holder,my grandparents pick up scraps that people leave on the floor and are broken and fix it.Gotta watch out for ur umbrella.Plus they have the fastest train the bullet train sooo
Yum,runny yolks! Ever heard the phrase “too much of a good thing can be bad?”well that’s true so make sure to eat runny yolks only once in a while!😐☺️😊😊
Just in case you don't know, we put paste or oil just before you eat the instant noodle.I think it take more time to soften noodle if you put paste before hot water are in.
I love that you take a moment after biting into something before making a judgment, also love that you don't pretend to like everything. I always look forward to your content. Cheers
He def doesnt pretend to like everything but he still makes sure to finish eating it
Agreed. The main issue with Mark Wiens. I think he dies with joy at 99.9% of his food... It's too much and not very useful as a 'review'...
“I knew my buffet senses were tingling” - Mike Chen.
Someone please put that quote on a t-shirt 😂😂
i would buy it!
stop the lights

You know when food is good.
*mike closes his eyes*
Also he'll make a fist😊
@@selenacole2760 and if he reeeeeeeeally likes it he references Forest Gump xDDD
My uncle is the CEO of 7/11 Japan, I'll let him know u love it. thanks for all ur great videos! :D
It is one of my dreams to visit Japan. Until then I will continue to binge watch every vlog you do in Japan! Thank you for bringing us along on all of your amazing travels.
You should start a UA-cam fan meet and eat/food tour thing. I’d never be able to go but I’m sure it’d make a lot of peoples trips awesome
good idea 👍
That’s such a good idea. Like a Q&A mukbang w fans.. 🙃💙
Not muk I hate them I dun Why lol but the greet and food awesome idea
Instead of a meet and greet, it would be called eat and greet. I’d be soooo down
4:31 If those umbrella locks were in America the only thing youll see left is your umbrella handle
Pretty sure people will steal the whole lock
I drop what I’m doing when I see a Japanese food Mikey video. Yes!
😂
So glad that you enjoyed our culture so much.
*food
No
Kota Ishijima ...ah you where with Eric Surf 6 on that Panda Express adventure.
You're culture is just amazing to me and my family, we can't wait to experience all of that Japan has to offer one day
11an Yes I was. Thank you.
Mikey's videos must bring so much tourism to Japan his videos always make me want to go back 😁
* hungry tourists :D
Whenever I feel anxious I watch your videos. Thanks!

Mike really makes me smile. What a blessing to have him on UA-cam. Keep up the great work!
I ALWAYS watch your video's but typically don't comment. I had to though after seeing the Veggie restaurant. Those sauteed mushrooms and the cabbage with the cream sauce looked AMAZING! Would love to try those!!!
I love the all-you-can-eat scenes of the chef working on the delicious foods. 😍
I seriously LOVE your Japan Seven-Eleven, and Lawson food videos so much! Idk why they are just so entertaining to watch. Would love another full episode on one of them
I love how Mike films the normal hotel visit thing of opening all the drawers and cupboards. I can’t believe you get half a cabbage to eat.
That beef bowl is REALLY AMAZING at 7-11 in Japan, Mike is right about this. Oh how I miss Japan!
*_American 7-Elevens have left the chat_*
_Bob McCoy yoooo it’s Bob_McCoy
😂😂
American ones are like janky and shady. All they have is like corn dogs and the regular American type food lol
I told my American friends about sneaking out of the school for 7-eleven food. None of them believe me.......😂
Check expiration date on everything when you go to an American 7-11. You've been warn.

That egg yolk work was absolute FOOD FILTH. And i loved it.
I just cant stop watching this guy its so awesome!!!
Thank you for being honest on the quality of the food. We need to know before we visit.
How can you not love family mart?? I have you never tried their hot foods?! The croquettes and famichiki (fried chicken) is what I come back to Japan for!
Okonomiyaki in that Restaurant is amazing, thanks again for the tip when I asked you for a good place to eat in Kyoto :D
That veggie buffet place looks amazing! I'm not even vegetarian but I think those people who hate vegetables just never had well prepared veggies. If you know how to cook the veggies they can taste amazing.

i see japan. i click

I love Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba! Also Kyoto is truly an amazing place, and I can't wait to go back!
Wooww. The japanese presentation of food is soo beautiful and well thought out. I love it
Came here for the Okonomiyaki and Yakisoba, was greeted with 7 Eleven instead. Great surprise!
I love feeling like I’m in Japan with you!
I love you Japan videos! I hope you’ll explore more of Japan! ❤️
I love video tours of Japanese convenient stores. So fascinating & different than the US.

Anyone else have that feeling of surrealism about Japan? It would be such a lovely place to live in once you retire.
Your Japan, & China vids are the best
Thanks for all your videos always bring a smile to my face
Between Osaka, Tokyo and Kyoto, Kyoto was my favourite of them all. You make me want to go back to Japan so badly!
I personally liked Osaka - it seemed more relaxed and not as formal plus at the time not as expensive as Kyoto.
Why are the 7 Elevens in the states so lame? I wanna try everything you had 😤
Because all Americans want is XL slurpy for 59c

Not all 7 Elevens suck. Try them in Hawaii. Not as good as Japan, but way better than the other states.

Wow So much good food on Kyoto! A must try! 👍
Yet more ideas of where to go eat during my jaunt to Japan, this summer! You're an inspiration to me, Mikey!
You made me smile when it started to smell garlic
LoL.. me to.. such as there is something personal between mike and garlic 😂😂😂
“Complementary bamboo” had me creasing! What is it actually used for?
Wow another great video of Japan 👍. Keep up the awesome vids Mikey Chan👍❤️
This MAN has the POWER to make everyone HUNGRY at ANYTIME even after HEAVY MEALS. 😀😀😁😁
Kyoto. Favorite city in the world. Great food, culture, and interesting architecture. Still, always good to leave the city for a ryokan in the country.
These videos make me so incredibly hungry. You sir are living the dream. Taste every food you can!
Love the travels in Kyoto! Thanks Mikey!

Love your enthusiasm and videos on your channels mikey🍣🍡🍥
just got back from our first trip to Japan. I swear, the first thing we did that hit up 7 eleven because of you! it was great! thanks, man!
I had okonomiyaki recently and it’s now one of my favorite Japanese dishes
i've been to seven eleven in japan and its amazing they out lots of love and care into the meals, i had seven eleven for breakfast everyday it was that good.
I could watch you eat all day man! amazing japan konbinis
Finally made it on a recent video. I’ve been binge watching on your airline food videos! I love it. Thanks for the great content you put out 🙌🏽
"That is just INAPPROPRIATE!"
Becca Riley Now that’s inappropriate!
I was about to post the same thing!! OLOLL
ffeellix is fine Haha! finally someone that understands
If that egg yolk is wrong I don't want to be right! LOL
Am I watching food porn? I'm so embarrassed.................not really
Your killin me! That okonomiyaki and yakisoba place is ace!

Mikey is living the life honestly !!!
I just got my package from Japan and I'm so excited to try all the goodies that I have. Your food looks amazing as always thanks for sharing
I just ordered a pizza for dinner...and I'm watching this.
Actually this may have given me some inspiration on what to do for my wife's birthday. Thank you Mikey.
An umbrella?
Take her out for dinner to 7 eleven?
all not bad suggestions guys...
But no, a japanese place not far from me. We went there for AYCE buffet and the food was good, but while there I noticed they had teppanyaki. The misses and I did teppanyaki on a cruise so I know she'll like it. Maybe an umbrell and 7-Eleven dinner next year.

I like how mike checks the things the hotels give him, he just grabs something then tosses it back down
I'm such a picky eater but watching you eat all of that is making me want to try it!!!
The dessert you ate and said some kind of bean pudding, it was actually French chestnut cream called Mon t Brant
Outstanding looking food! Japan has food down to an art.
Mikey, I watch a lot of youtube and you are my favourite channel. Your videos are awesome.
Family Mart does indeed suck, but he should really try the chicken though. It's really good.
勁守 famichicken is the most addicting thing on earth
Family Mart might suck in Tokyo, but in Okinawa, it's the other way around.
In Indonesia family mart is good
at 12:13 Mikey himself considered it inappropriate. It is inappropriate! How dare you film that sexy yolk running down towards that good looking rice.
Reported for nsfw video. It makes anyone hungry.
What a coincidence!!! My little sister just came back from japan and brought me back the dan dan mien - going to have it right now!
There is something about that runny egg yolks that’s just the essence of yumminess 🍲🍜🍱🥚
The way you edit your videos is so nice
I’m going to write Mike a song because I love this guy so much! If I’m Rice, then his videos make me happy, and you know what they say about happy rice!
that fried rice must of been something, first time seeing mike speechless and only say wow lol
I blessed that random sneezing person on the train. Out of pure habit
I’ve been binge watching your videos, I love your content!
I'm aiming to return to Japan in 2021. Best place I've ever been to.
Egg sandwiches were a staple of my childhood. Cheap and easy to make.
Food is the only reason I have to go to Japan. Looking forward to returning to Tokyo in March.
Gosh I wanna try all those 7 eleven food you got Mikey 😍😍😍
Regards from Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
YES!!! This thumbnail gave me life💙
I. Am. Drooling. Everything you ate looked amazing! 😭😍
Japan food looks soooo beautifullll!!! Omigosh
You’re videos are goodmorning videos for me. Watch it every time I woke up
Keep going back to that 7 eleven till you try everything. Im in love with the japan convenient store food mukbang thingies.
I felt the same way about 7-11 when I was in Tokyo. I woke up everyday just wanting to go eat all their food. It’s an addiction!

Nice t-shirt! Have a great trip and take good care. Honesty, yay.
Wow that egg over the rice looked to good to be true... YUMMMMMMM.egg yolk makes everything better!!!
Just in case you don't know, we put paste or oil just before you eat the instant noodle.I think it take more time to soften noodle if you put paste before hot water are in.
I’m addicted to watching his videos.
Love all the videos would love to meet and try some new exciting foods!!!!
i'm definitely going to this place when i go to kyoto in 3 weeks :D
