Yeah he created a strong brand and following. I see a lot of competition now tho from several other UA-camrs that popped up. I think the hardest work would be research especially if you don't speak the language.

We booked a room in Japan. Then we saw your first vid on Tomita. Then we realized our room was like 1.5min away from Tomita. We ended up eating there 3 nights in a row. Miss it so much! Soooo gooood! 😍😍😍
That moment where you turner the camera around and gasped: That’s my drive every day home from work in Mount Vernon to Bellingham. Our culinary arts students at MVHS would flip out if you ever wanted to stop off for a hello. Chinese language students & teachers of our WA state would be thrilled to invite you to a conference or workshop. Chuckanut mountains followed by hot pot!!
As someone who is living in Japan, I think it’s called the Adult pie because at the time (January) every year there’s a Coming of Age Ceremony going on when teens become 20 and turn into adults. For the burger based on its name I think what makes it different is the cheese slides are thicker I believe! Hope it helps!
Mike: I just need to go home, its almost Chinese new year. My parents are going to kill. You dont kill people, you're awesome *Meanwhile 15 minuts later* Mike: I have to go home for Chinese new year otherwise my mum will have my head. I will not be able to fly anymore because I will not have a head.
You have such a nice and positive personality, i feel always so happy when i watch your travels and your foodmoments 😊 even when i have a shitty day, thanks for that
“Adult” in Japan (in this case) just means meant more for older people than little kids. It’s like they don’t expect little kids to like it, so they’re just suggesting not to get it for them.

the burguer has the slice of cheese that it is double the thickness of the normal one, also they have now in the menu a double the thickness of bacon, it pretty tasty ☺️☺️☺️
We used to live near Canyon Park, and right after you get on 405 southbound is the most perfect view of the mountain framed by the trees. Days when the mountain was out were always perfect days. I'll remember that view forever. And stop making me homesick!

BTW, have you been to Toronto? You need a peameal bacon sandwich. You will love it. There is a place near the airport on the border of Brampton/Missasagua that is open 24 hours I believe, and frequented by the airport workers. I haven't been there in like 5 years, but of all the peameal bacon I ate in the Toronto area, it was the best. If you haven't been to Toronto, you should go. They say it's the New York of Canada, but it's probably closer to say it's a Canadian take on New York. It has some of the wonderful aspects of New York but in that wonderful Canadian way. It's probably my favorite city in North America after Seattle.
That pretty shot on the freeway I like to call “the gulley”. it’s the only stretch of interstate 5 where it goes between to two mountains north of Seattle (south of the Canadian border). I’m glad that you chose to move the my neck of the woods.👍🏼

Probably already addressed, but I looked up the meaning behind the "Adult Cream Pie" and it essentially comes from a loose translation of Otona no Cream Pie, which actually means, "Refined Palate Cream Pie"
Adultaro = Adult, often in a more sexual sense or the adult entertainment industry
Otona = Adult, but frequently in reference to less sweet, more complex flavors for pastries that adults would like more than children
So, for anyone curious, there's your answer!
Thank you
But we still like to call it adult cream pie
Actually is "Adaruto", not "Adultaro". And you use it like "Adaruto video" or "AV".Otona means a grown up

Hi Mike. Again, I implore you to visit Okinawa on your visit to Japan. Think Japan with a sprinkle of Hawaii. It is so unique and wonderful. The people, culture and especially the food.

I think the “leaning” burger is supposed to imitate how McD burgers in the US are. No matter what you order they always come assembled like that.
I thought the 'Leaning tower of burger' was a reference to the 'Leaning Tower of Pisa' in Italy. Makes more sense to me (European), but just a guess
I’ve never seen a McDonald’s burger in the states come in any fashion besides smushed into the wrapper/container and put under a heat lamp.
Jen Huffine they make the burgers fresh to eat at maccas here in Australia. Takes more time but nothing is sitting.
