For the hotpot, usually, we don't put "bún", the noodles straight into the boiling pot cause it'd be too soft, just put it in separate bowls and pour the hot soup in. Idk about other people, but I've never seen anyone near me do the opposite. But still, everything looks freaking delicious!!
I started managing a privately owned breakfast & lunch restaurant back at the beginning of this year and started going to bed at 7pm ET. Now, instead of watching your videos right before bed and wanting to eat until I pass out, I wake up to a new video and eat a big big breakfast 😋 Time for 3am brekkie!
If I was a small business/restaurant owner, seeing Mikey Chen walking up to the door would make my day! Glad you got to try some of the Bay Area's Vietnamese cuisine.
Mike, I just went into the living room to tell my wife about that roast beef banh mi sandwich you had and I actually drooled while telling her about it. I make a great rare roast beef and love making banh mi sandwiches but never thought of using roast beef before. I know what's on our menu soon.
All I want to say is this is your hard earned effort that you put over the years & finally enjoy the food that you like without giving a damn about the time & $$. Salute 💪🏻
I like that you’re able to go out and eat again but I really liked the videos when you were at home and just telling us stories you knew. It felt like I was in the room enjoying a meal with you.
What a great video!!! I cannot wait to follow some off your food trails!!! I was just down in Virginia and i got some Pho but now I’m wishing I had brought some back home with me!!! Thankfully, we’re going back next week so more Vietnamese, Thai, and Korean coming my way!!! You’re right Mike there is no where good in New York to get good pho!!! It’s such a shame!!!
So lovely to watch! Story; my husband and I decided 3 years ago that on Christmas day, we would celebrate with just us and our 2 kids( now 6&8). We had caught too much grief to handle from both our families and needed to prioritize. We also decided that, despite our meager budget that we would save all year for a crab dinner on Christmas day for us at home. We spent the last two years with no vacations or extras, but we feasted like kings in our pajamas on this day! I went to the store 2 days ago and am totally dismayed that crab is a whopping $60 per pound! I bought 2 crab legs for $100. Its all we can afford, but it will be eaten and enjoyed by us in thanks!
@@myusernameisnotunique Thanks for sharing, I'm sorry you have such bad memories of your Christmas! My hope for you is that you can build great relationships and find loving people that surround you and show their love in more generous ways than material gifts. I hope your Christmas this year isn't a repeat of your past ones, just know I'll be thinking of you and wishing you the best! You're welcome at our table any day! 💛💛💚
@@myusernameisnotunique I'd like to claim that I'm wholesome, but that's not always who I was. I'd love to know more about your studies! I love science as a whole, but I'm probably not too versed in physics 😋
Yay! Come visit the Bay Area more! I love seeing recommendations that I can easily go to but I still love seeing all of your foodie adventures! I’ve been hooked since way back when you lived out this way!
The reason Mikey is so much fun to watch is that you can never predict what he's going to say about the food! He used the word "luminous " to describe crabs! 🤣🤣
Love your videos! You make me feel inspired and like I wanna travel everywhere and try the food you try because you make them look so good! Thank you so much!
You do have me really liking vietnamese and Korean style foods. I went to Panama city beach last week and all I was excited about was going to eat at Pho Pier 77. It was great.
Oh Rickys? You need a silver card they won't tell you how and members aren't either. We're just supposed to tell curious people to "Follow the Golden Coconut". Good luck Mikey!
I've been dipping bahn mi in my pho for like 6 months, especially the end of the bun where it isn't super meaty. It's one of my favorite things to do! Hell I'd probably eat bread with pho if I didn't feel like it was a sin.
The best notification of the day!! 🙏🏽 I'll be in Flushing Queens for a few days!! Hitting all your recommendations! And classic spots like White Bear.. Blessings 🙏🏽
The food looks so delicious! Love traveling with you and watching you enjoy each dish. One thing more, thank you for teaching me the correct pronunciation of “pho.”
So now I'm going to raid my freezer for my noodle bowls and go eat ramen with left over turkey! Mike, everything looks so good. I've tried snow crab and king crab. I really like the king crab, but my all time favorite is the Dungeness crab. Here in Washington state, that's the main one for us. They just have so much flavor. And all those spices looked good on the crab, but I like mine with melted butter. Cold or hot, doesn't matter. Thank you again, for making me hungry. All the food looked so good.
@@jasoninthehood9726 because you're so damn almighty that you've been chosen by the Gods to judge another fkn human being? ....Right. *Didn't think so.*
If you've never tried dipping bahm mi into pho broth, I'm telling you it's so good! I always order a sandwich with my pho everytime I'm at a restaurant.
This is a great time to be in San Francisco. The tourists are gone, you have the place to yourself, Chinatown, North Beach, we enjoy the food variety on Clement Street, Burma Star, cheap dumplings to go at Good Luck. Great art and science museums too! Catch a cable car down to Fisherman's Wharf.
@@borisgetman9222 I like visiting San Francisco, I have never wanted to live there. It has always seemed like a challenging place to live, the traffic, crime, homelessness, and the insane cost of living. My brother lives in Marin, he never goes to the city.
@@richardt1792 Absolutely. SF is like hard liquor. You drink it only a little bit and only every once in a while; than you sober up and continue with your routine peaceful life. Those who start doing it daily end up where SF is right now.
Omg I remember going to the New England lobster a couple months ago getting the exact same as what you got. Next time please get the scrambled eggs and lobster. IT IS SO GOOD AND CHEAP
Mike, don't know if you were aware of it but 'Lily' is just a few blocks down the street from where some of 'Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings' filmed some B-roll. Specifically, it's where his dingy garage apartment was located. Hmmm, wonder if he ever ate at 'Lily'. Probably not as a valet wouldn't be able to afford such a place 😉
I'm kinda surprised that the crab restaurant didn't take out the gills before cooking it. The crab miso/innards/tomalley (different names for the same thing "crab guts") are definitely a prized and to many delicious part of the crab, but their are parts which are definitely not good for eating. Like the gills which are actually gross tasting, rubbery, and actually can get you sick.
Looks like I’m gonna restart my KETO diet next week because of you Mike! Glad you came to San Francisco! I gotta try that Hot Pot place & Lily’s!!! ✊🏻😃
Mike, for the crackers dish, You are using the crackers as a spoon. You would put a bit of everything from the noods, meat, veggies all on it, a lil bit fish sauce, and nom nom.
I don't really have hot pot near me butbI have fantastic tom yum just up the road....think I'm gonna grab a half gallon of that and some sliced rare beef from the Asian market and give that a try
I lived in San Francisco for 30 years. There are some great Asian restaurants, I'm suprised you have not tried Thang Long located on 44th Ave and Irving Street (a few block from Ocean Beach).Great history on the place, wonderful food and drink, parking can be challenging but that's SF. There's also Yummy Yummy located at 12th Ave and Irving. They have a wonderful menu of traditional Vietnames food, the owners are wonderful and the food is so fresh. I move to the PNW 10 years ago, I still miss those places.
There are literally thousands of restaurants in San Francisco / Bay Area and hundreds that many people would call “superb”. It is simply impossible to try all of them. You talk to 10 locals, and they will name you 50 “you must go to” places.
New England Lobster market is my favorite 😭😭😭😭 The lobster bisque + lobster rolls are amazing!!! If you dip your lobster roll into the soup, it’s a game changer 😩
Thank you for sharing. You turned me on to some new crab joints in the city. Let me return the favor. You must go to Thanh long. It's a Vietnamese restaurant on 46th and Judah. They have the best roast crab I've ever had
I love that you tell the story of your ascent to success. Some people think success is an overnight affair. It's not. You have to pay your dues. And scrimp. And plan. And pray.
That's so weird about Ricky's. Looks like the name was more accurately Ricky's Cuisine On The Loop, and it does have the same address as the Moonrise Hotel. There is an Eclipse Restaurant in the hotel, I wonder if Ricky's turned into that.

How many restaurants you think pay him for the promotion
@@brysonw1815 Probably none of them. But they're probably happy to see him if they know who he is.

I love smaller places like the sister owned place, u can taste the time, patience and love they put into the product they put out

Urgh, darn you Mikey - making me crave garlic noodles and Dungeness crab in the middle of the night!! Thanks as always for the delicious upload.
Looks like you might have to find a way to get some, mugi 😂

So mysterious
That crunch at 7:18 is amazing. The bread is fresh. My local places serve stale bread.
*I had a Chinese style scallion and ginger Dungeness crab for Thanksgiving because of you, Mike!* 🦀🔥💯
I absolutely love how they went an extra mile and advised to eat the bonmei sorry I can't spell it, like a French dip. Sounds delicious!

Went to my first ever hot pop here in Virginia. I pulled up a Mikey hot pot video to get the sauce combination. Appreciate the recipe lol
Some years ago I also watched Mike to know how to eat hot pot and make the sauce like a pro
Keep it up! You're keeping me eating thru this pregnancy. I'm so grateful for you

Why oh why do I punish myself by watching this at this time of the night ... 😭 .... coz it's strictly dumpling and it's worth it 🥰
New england lobster company is amazing. Stop by every time we’re in SF. Conveniently close to the airport too!
The way u said Ricky's Restaurant is not here felt like some sort of spooky/horror stories attached to it haha
Overall Foods were really damn Good !!
