I just can’t with the guy eating behind you at the Mexican restaurant😂 His reactions are hilarious
I rather watch him, more authentic.
omg hahaha hes all i look at now!! hahahahaha its even funnier with all the editing hahaha
Mike, please find this guy and ask for him to take you around to his favorite spots to eat! Oh, I hope his number one favorite spot is the home of a family member!
Mike eating: 😍🤤🤤😍
Anyone else eating the same thing: 😐 its good
@@minniec.9127 Ouch! Why are you watching then you little troll? Plenty other content on UA-cam.
The man behind him at the Mexican/Peru restaurant also agreed with the good food 😂 he was doing the large hand shake yes!
Russians to the airport
Love watching the flight reviews, it's been cool watching the transition of protocols from before covid, some of the strictest times, to now.
I love the airline reviews! They are one of my favs, and then the 711 reviews are awesome too!
Wow! Can’t believe you ate at one of my favorite Mexican/Peruvian spots especially down the street from my job😭 Been supporting you for some years now🤞🏽 Safe travels
Yessss I love all your airplane food reviews they are so great 😍
Shout out to Mikey for always coming through with almost no ads 👌🏼🤍🤍🤍
i've flown Polaris class, twice, round trip to japan. if you pair it with the lounge there's no way you wont absolutely love it!! (except during covid) and i can confirm the sundae cart is awesome. I've always wanted to try Mint too....I may just do it to do it lol
I flew that flight last December, Tokyo to LAX to visit family and the food was terrible. Business class but economy food, I inquired about it and the FA told me it was because of Covid. Thank goodness, I filled up at the lounge before my flight.
Wait there’s a sundae cart?!
@@Mandamonster89 oh its wonderful! so they give you a little glass chalice with a scoop of vanilla. they have all the toppings, hot fudge, caramel, strawberry goo lol nut sprinkles cherries, oh my! lol but it also has other little dessert bites offered on the cart. like little fruit tarts, mini chocolate cakes, lemon squares...things like that all maybe 1-2 bites in size.
they also have a basket full of mini baileys and Jamesons to make irish coffees lol
@@ameatperson6779 That sounds absolutely amazing 🤩
@@Mandamonster89 it is that and more!! Which is why it's super depressing if all you end up getting is a single disposable ice cream 😐
12:54 that dude behind Mike is hella enjoying his food 😭
This how I experience the world! Thank you Mikey!! 😊
How do you know when the food is THAT good? You eat quietly, enjoying every bite of that samwich, occasionally looking afar contemplating of the purpose of your life on this world. Sometimes you gotta be that guy behind the vlogger.
Been watching on and off for awhile I tore my achilles heel a month ago and was bed bond for a bit and started watching again so I want to say thanks for all the great videos I’m a retired chef and foodie and your videos always make me smile to see someone’s genuine love of food you give the best reviews 😎
*Great!! 😋 👍 Me after this video, oh I can’t wait for breakfast tomorrow!*
@12:54 Hermano in the back is doing his own taste test lol
You peeped that right!! 😂 he was just as happy!
What are you talking about, He was the Mexican translator to Mike's channel 😂
Menu already presented before sitting, they KNEW!
I’m glad you are able to compare the two business classes these are the best!!!
You are my food hero! The only person to eat an entire Mexican meal and board a plane with no problem, you the MAN! 👏🏻
He did take us to see the bathroom😂🤦🏻♂️
Thank you Mike. I’ve been waiting patiently! My favorite late night show! I feel like I’m flying Every time I watch.
That Chef at 9:43 now that's MULTI TASKING at it's best!!!
As much as I love you, Mikey, and I know how genuine you are, the dude behind you doing a happy dance should the peru place for me! It reminded me of you and Krista!!!
LOVE and appreciate review of the non alcoholic beverages always 🔥🔥💃
Im overwhelmed by who to watch.. Mikey or that cool Mexican guy. I love this duo! haha
Legend says Mike put chilli oil in his water as well
🤣😂🤣
13:24 dude brought himself food :D
Hi Mike! The United flight you flow was an a plane equipped with the Polaris product, but the service including the food ,lounge access, and other amenities were not Polaris business, which is branded for international flights and transcontinental flights.
It took me a moment to understand what you meant. Basically, the flight offers Polaris service, but Mike didn’t get the Polaris option, if I understand right
@@miscl_anon pretty much United has planes equipped with the Polaris business class seats, but they only brand it as Polaris business class on certain routes. This was not one of those routes. It was just branded as regular domestic first class but happened to be on a plane equipped with the Polaris seats. There’s more to the Polaris service than the seats, including amenity kits, exclusive Polaris lounge access, and special food, none of which Mike got on this flight.
@@jr13227 gotchu gotchu, aight thx
*Wishing everyone the best sleep of their life after having seen this relaxing video!*
🥰🥰🥰
I love some honest reviews, keep it up Mike Chen!
3:23 like a restaurant in the sky 🌌 lol 😂 that steak 🥩 looks tasty 😋 and delish
The food anywhere in Santa Barbara is amazing! I grew up in SB, and live in Arkansas now…. I am always dreaming of SB food. My husband gets annoyed with me cause I’m always comparing Arkansas food with Santa Barbara food. It’s literally paradise.
The drive from LAX to Santa Barbara is a trek! I’m impressed that you didn’t even mention it. I would have complained!
I remember when you couldn't afford business class! Look at you now! You and your girl always travel in luxury! We live our travel fantasy through you...
You can tell by the way they nod in approval at the same time (Guy at the back 12:55 ) that that food is AMAZING!
Lol the guy in the back is exposing mikes editing
Next time you are in L.A., you need to try El Cholo. My mom went there as a kid. . It's been serving people since 1923. She and my dad started taking us kids there as well. She is now in her 80's Really good Mexican food!
I’m a dumpling fan for years now, and when Mikey is not only happy but over the top satisfied with the food and services , esp with great hot oil or chili sauce, I’m jumping for joy. So happy to see bits and pieces of Kristine’s hands and pink luggage. 🥳😉You had me with that Mexican food!! Great reviews , love the honesty as always! 🥳😀 Keep making us drool over those food we can’t all eat in our lifetime, lol 😆😜😉 God bless everyone, and peace to all mankind.🙏🙏❤️❤️
12:53 the guy in the back approves 😂
It makes me so happy to see Christine's hand!
The dude eating behind you at Mex Peru was mesmerizing lol
12:36 the steak at the Mex-Peru restaurant is a lard-salted aged cut called cecina, you can find that cut in any Mexican grocery-butcher that sell Mexican produce ;)
I have family that is Peruvian and can make those dishes that everyone can only eat at restaurants. But yes there cuisine is out of this world
when the guy behind mike is superhappy w the food,you know it is super good. lols
another thing to mention about united polaris is that storage compartment, it;s a treasure trove for the staff after each landing cuz people forget they put stuff there like crazy
Enjoyed this review, Going on my first Polaris flight in 2 weeks (IAH-SFO-TPE) so was searching up some reviews. I then browsed your other videos, looks like I might now be hooked, although it will take me a while to get through them. Need to start with the several you have for Taiwan.
I appreciated the food and even the cooking. Nice review. Thank you! 🙂 🙏
Whenever Mikey says "I know how to make this better!", I must stop whatever I'm doing and watch what mind-blowing culinary concoction he's about to come with.
@Fill IV lol i was going to say that
worked in the fashion district for 10yrs. good to see you visit.
love watching his videos, but i would hate it when i would be sitting right beside him while he is vlogging in in airplane hahaha
Mikey drizzle chilli oil even on the lasagna and steak 😅....maybe he even added some to Christine as well 😂...who knows
I’m dying laughing because i can just see christina (his partner) hand casually in the corner of the video stealing his pasta while he talks about the restaurant😂🤣
Idk why.. but it feels like he suddenly stopped showing her in the vids. All we get are hands lol
Yesss! JetBlue mint is awesome! Now you should review American’s flagship first product! I’ve flown that a couple times and it’s pretty nice.
Mikey next time you’re in the Orlando area you should totally cover world of food trucks in Kissimmee Florida.
Last restraunt seeing them make the lo mos sartado and the green spaghetti just kinda made me want to go visit my mom and get her to make it she used to make it alot when i was a kid
make more flight reviews i love them
You should’ve tried the steak and the lasagne together !
Everything looked DELICIOUS! Especially at the restaurant.
Safe Journey!
CHOLULA!!!
I actually just flew in Polaris yesterday, same exact meals and everything, from Chicago to SFO. We didn't get headphones, but I also ordered the chicken and it was pretty tender. maybe the chefs in Chicago are a little better that LA lol
When are we going to get a peak of Christine's new look? I'm so excited
Ikr😝
@@jessicadiaz8500 u cute... IG?
What new look?
@@hseojeon bruh
@@Lclhney she has a new face
I stopped by Mex Peru Gypsy today and it was really good! I like the pesto pasta dish more than the lomo saltado, but both were good. I told them about your channel as well and they said they had no idea that someone posted about them! I told them to check you out.
Next time you come to LA, you gotta go to Natalie’s Peruvian in Hollywood. Their food is amazing, and you have to try the shrimp in lobster sauce.
Hard to compare a transcon flight on JetBlue with a regular domestic flight on United. Should've compared transcon with transcon, you get far more amenities on those flights than on LAX-ORD.
Dude in the background at The Mexican Peuvian restaurant was loving his food
You're living the life,Mikey! Happy for you
If he stomps the table, you know that shit delicious for sure.
I'm fixing to pull the trigger on a flight to Hawaii in the near future, here, so I'm casting about for airlines to do so with...all these places, as usual, look faboo!
We wanna try this place. Thanks for sharing.
Hope we can stay connected.
JetBlue Mint is the best for experience for domestic flights. I recently took United Polaris from LA to Chicago and was very disappointed. No pillow. Had to ask for a blanket which was super thin. No amenities bag. JetBlue is the premier airline in the US and hands down the best for domestic flights.
As a jetblue flight attendant who works in mint; I'm so happy to see you enjoyed the food and the mint experience, I love your content and how much you visibly enjoy food! Hopefully one day I'll have you on one of my flights!
That pasta looks so good. As does everything else you had.
What ear buds is Mike using ?
Feels like Mikey doing more flight videos means things are slowly getting better? I hope to return to Japan soon and getting more hopeful seeing this video. Do stay safe during your travels though and thanks for the great videos as always~ :)
I hope so but looking at the news cant help but feel otherwise. China just went on lockdown again and now there are reports in the EU.
He’s been traveling even with lockdowns. It seems he doesn’t care like he used to about getting covid
That man in 12:53 is sharing every bit of your happiness
I love seeing Christine off-camera just chipping away at the pesto pasta. I guess it's hers now.
I can't stop watching you videos, I'd love to do a food tour with you!
Bwahaha
Love the food reviews makes me want to Explore!!
I enjoyed the video. I think this video will remain as a good memory for me. I hope that only good things will always happen.
i can confirm you get the same food from LA to NY on united polaris. except you get two pillows, blanket and toiletry bag. jet blue wins this
the peach ice cream and the cheese and tomatoes looked so similar lolll
Miki I see you got a ring on your left hand congratulations
Nice Into The Am Shirt my friend. Super comfy
I didn’t even know Jet Blue has that fancy food on plane I want to try it LOL
I always make the mistake of watching your videos while i'm hungry 🤤🤤
I think I liked Jetblue's Mint compared to UA business class. I flew business with UA from EWR to LAX and I didn't like it in terms of the food and service. They did give us two pillows and a blanket.
best looking airplane food I have ever seen
Yesss! JetBlue mint is awesome! Now you should review American’s flagship first product!
So that's a Polaris seat (which are great) sold as domestic first. I've taken a few international Polaris flights over the last month, if United could figure out how to serve some good food it would be an automatic choice. Sadly, they can't, out of 8 meals, 1 was great some type of beef stew type thing (that's how the FA described it), 1 was okay, chicken curry with noodles and 2 were down right terrible, chicken breast with potatoes and chicken breast with veggies. Looking over on flyer talk it looks like generally there seems to be the same feelings.
All these were awesome reviews , l actually may try jet blue after seeing you try it... l may have to take out a mortgage, to drive or fly to Florida this year.
Mikey!!!! Someone was ghosting you pasta dude! Gotta be careful out there in LA! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love all your videos of Las Vegas and I'm almost done trying all of the food places that you have gone I'm going back to Vegas again and October and so far the food has been great you've been on point.
Im going next week and secretly hoping to run into Mikey!
Your vids are a depression killer, my man.. Tnx, Dude! 👍♥️🇵🇭
so sweeettt
* Mikey enters a Mexican restaurant * Manager: "put a hot oil flask on the table ASAP" 😄😋
And Mikey thumps the table = sign that the food is GOOD
I just got done watching good mythical morning and they did orange chicken with cheese on it. Was watching your video and thought you might want to try it sometime
You were flying United Domestic First Class not Polaris. The level of service and food is equal to a standard domestic first class flight. Polaris is offered for select California to east coast routes domestically and international flights only.
Earlyyyyy! Hope you’re having a great week Mike! Love your videos man, always fall asleep to them haha. Your voice satisfies my night and helps me fall asleep. Hope you stay healthy and happy!
12:54 guy on the back had the best food in his life
The guy next to him must be having a interesting time lol
Lomo Saltado is my favorite! that one looks so good. I sometimes get lunch at Don Ceviche in Essex Market. You should give it a try.
Absolutely starving 🤤🤤
I kinda miss your cryptid videos, but the eats you review are awesome.
This feels more like a mike chen type of vid. Not complaining tho!
Mike, you past me (Marysville California) on your way to Sacramento on the hwy lmao! Should of stopped by and picked me up haha!
