Love how mike was like looking at them like I’m finishing all this why aren’t y’all actually eating I’m starving I have not eaten in the last 30 min lol
First thought: They sent Claire to Japan?! Second thought: This isn't the Bon Appetit channel?! OMG, I'm so used to Claire being a smol cinnamon bun next to giants like Brad that it's so weird to see her be the tallest one in the video.
Not assuming anything here, but if you'd like a free place to talk, here are some options for you: nhs.uk/conditions/stress-anxiety-depression/mental-health-helplines/
IKR!!! LOL totally got clickbaited by the title. I thought two of my favourite people on RUclips were going to be going on a Japanese food tour together!!!
This was the perfect first episode of the series! Seeing Reina host here really showed how much she shines, especially talking about her culture! Claire and Mike were perfect guests too! I can't wait to see more of these!
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing after reading the title. Would be interesting to see the interaction. Also to get Claire's take on some of those food items Mike was enjoying.
Would also have been nice if they'd tried something other than plain Pocky and two other options that were essentially plain Pocky in a different shape, too. Three out of five of their choices were dull as dishwater.
All this love for Claire I'm like... I hope Mike felt full after all this, man's gotta eat, portion sizes too small for him he could eat everything they ate on this episode XD
The production, pacing, and personalities are really top notch for a series premier. Good job FWF hope this show does well cause I want to see tons more!
Mikes all like "Oh, we have to share?... that's cool, that's cool." While thinking "I'll just go back to all the food stalls when the cameras are off."
"We better get our food soon I'm about to eat my thumb" Mike is an eating machine lol. I can't blame him tho that yakisoba looks bomb. Never noticed how gorgeous Claire's eyes are

I've watched Mike for so long, especially in middle school, and now im a huge ba fan and watch ba constantly, so i love seeing Claire and Mikey in the same video ! 💕
Great to see Reina Scully host this show. I like her Channel a lot because she's a Japanese American in Japan who embodies the best understanding of both sides of her cultural upbringing. This trip through a Japanese food hall in Brooklyn is terrific. (I'm also a fan of Mike Chen's videos.) Great job, Reina!
Mike is the kind of person who genuinely enjoys food to the max. Even after they stopped eating, he kept on and it’s amazing. Love the new series, will keep up!
So excited that Reina is hosting this! I've been watching her videos of Japan for a while and she's great. Also, Mike Chen and Claire Saffitz both on the first episode! Swoon...
Love Reina and Claire so much! I was lucky enough to visit Japan and it was so beautiful. I really miss it, so it's nice to watch a series that feels so special and personal to Reina and also myself!
Like if you would die for Claire from the B.A. Test Kitchen!
I'm here for it.
I would go lesbo
If my mom and Claire Saffitz both drowning and I can only save one, catch me at my mom''s funeral eating Gourmet Oreos
She must be protected.
Dude get Dwayne Jhonson on hot ones
Plzzzzz
Wow. They finally let Claire out of the test prison. Lol
They didn't. It's all greenscreen :(
she deserves it, I would wish Chris was there but I don't think he wants to leave the batk
@@i_shoot_stuff You like to watch Chris smell things?
@@flyingardilla143 it could be its own 45 minute show and I'd watch every episode
To Brooklyn a simple subway train and some transfers away lol Meanwhile Molly and Carla went to Italy to taste cheeses
It's weird seeing Claire as the tall one in the frame
How small is Reina?!?!?!?
First thing I noticed too!
i think its just that brad is pretty damn tall
@@Gravistry So is Chris and Delaney and Rapport
@@i0le0pwn Google says 4'12" ... which is weird (152cm)
"Maybe help her find some inspiration for her next project"
Like Claire has a choice
*brian peeking over the camera this whole time*
I think her next project should be about sexual foods.
It's such a topic people don't cover enough.
YS What the FUCK are you talking about?
Kenneth Frank I mean she already made pocky lol
@@xero9ravity150 i mean, Food Wars does that exact thing all the time hahaha
Wait... so ur telling me Claire’s last name isn’t “From-The-BA-Test-Kitchen”?
No thats half- sour saffitz.
Wait

first we feast go it wrong
😂
anyone else enjoying Mikey Chen devouring everything like he hasn’t been fed in days lol
thats the kinda friend you want....eat like a beast, then hit the gym like a beast
He just really appreciates his food!
I here just to watch Mikey!!
I wish I could eat like him
more like just a normal day/video for our Jackie Chan
*yakisoba arrives*
Mike: _"Ladies first"_
Mikes brain: _"You girls can have a taste but you ain't getting this back"_
He did legit stand there with it in his hand, pretending not to notice the side eye he was getting. xD
It's kind of his brand.
You know him too well 😂✨
@@reinascully He had that look in his eye 😂Btw, congrats on the new series Reina. This was a great opener 👍
haha mike will certainly do that
Based on this comment section, I'm pretty sure Claire could start her own cult.
All praise the Half-Sour One!
we would die for Claire from the B.A. Test Kitchen
She HAS her own cult
I’m in.
In China cults are forbidden so I think she should stay away from there.
Mikey shoveling the previous dish in his face until the last moment before the next is a mood.
I'm a simple gal. I see "Claire Saffitz", I click, and then I like.
Same
And then they bury her at 9:36. That’s clickbaity.
*camera stops recording*
Claire: "And now, for my favorite part of the show, reading the ingredients of these Kit-Kats"
Mikey still eating he yakisoba while theyre talking about the Okonomiyaki is hilarious
You know he ate ALL the leftovers.
it's so on brand for him too, lol.
Listen, Mikey knows what he wants. And it is that good, sweet, delicious food. All other things are secondary.
Karthage922 very true my friend!
I didn't know who he was going in and left a fan because of this.
“So Claire you’re know for your WILDLY popular web series, Gourmet Makes”
Claire: *intense ptsd flashback*
Yeah, thank God there were no pop rocks 😱
Two words: Tempered. Chocolate.
We don't deserve her 😔
POOR CLAIRE
Soooooo Claire is a total RUclipsr now collabing everywhere LOVE IT
Mike Chen hot ones? Feel like he’d DEMOLISH them wings
Oh EASY
He'd ask for extra hot chili oil knowing him!
but he is boring af
YES
right down to da bowwne
I love how Mikey just keeps eating the yakisoba while the other two are talking about the pancake thing. That's my Strictly Dumpling!
It’s the whole way through! They are chatting about the onigiri and still have 50-75% left, he is down to the wrapper!
LOVE MIKEY!!!
He’s skiv
Get Claire and Brad on Hot Ones please!
Or get Andy there and watch him going insane lol
@@Logan-ff4yz Dang, I meant the super taster! What's his face again? (it's Chris, just looked it up)
angel102ify that would be a great episode!
@@Logan-ff4yz Yeah, that taki incident was exactly what I was thinking of. Claire was like "omg, now I broke Chris!" :D
Brad did the challenge when Sean was a guest on the Bon Apetit channel!
Love how mike was like looking at them like I’m finishing all this why aren’t y’all actually eating I’m starving I have not eaten in the last 30 min lol
Thank you for this. I’d always just assumed that Claire had no legs.
5 seconds into finding out who Claire is and wow she's a baddie. Would die for.
Welcome to the club!
A food breaking down Claire's will to live is the best thing on the internet. Claire recreating candies like starburst fuel my day.
hell yeah brother u know she a baddie w a

lol “shall we...switch gears?” *Mike Chen still devouring noodles*
He is not wasting any minute
Real foodie
😂
He should have carried that half-eaten bowl of yakisoba to every stand.
Mike and yakisoba can’t and wont be separated. Don’t even try actually.
Claire is a global treasure and needs to be protected at all times.
Settle down
Just don't put her in a group project...

First thought: They sent Claire to Japan?!
Second thought: This isn't the Bon Appetit channel?!
OMG, I'm so used to Claire being a smol cinnamon bun next to giants like Brad that it's so weird to see her be the tallest one in the video.
Reina, Claire, and Mike with First We Feast was something I never thought I'd see ❤️
9W120E091E9 they have a video with first we feast?????
Omg I didn’t even realize this is a First we feast video😂 I thought it was a Mikey Chen video Hahahaha
No one:
FWF: Here is a series about Japanese food, with an amazing Host and amazing guests.
Everyone: HELL YEAH!
The 3 best food channels are collaborating
I love how Mike actually keeps eating even after the initial shot
Hot Ones with Claire Saffitz and Brad Leone next season, please.
They can't the sheer chaotic energy would be too powerful
James Dooling YESSSSS
This deserves way more likes
Please!
James Dooling this comment needs to be the highlighted comment
the women: take courtesy bites
mike: continues to eat the everything as usual
Other hosts: Let's move on to the Okonomiyaki!
Mike Chen: *keeps eating Yakisoba*
I hope claire knows that almost everyone on this planet would die for her and she's absolutely gorgeous
wifey material right there...
You can’t be serious. She’s a 6 at best. She could be a 7 if she lost some weight. I see more beautiful women everywhere.
@@morningstar8187 literally no one asked for your opinion and all this negativity can go somewhere else - its not all about looks
Nawaaz Suleman Keep telling yourself that.
Morning Star ur disgusting, check ur personality before you shame other peoples looks!
Mike's not wasting any time. He hardly talked the episode, he was filling his face 😂
Can't say I blame him.
Also, I love claire ❤
I see Claire from the B.A test kitchen, that i would die for. And i click , its simple.
Mike's taking big bites of everything like he's starving.
Seeing how much he eats and how much he works out, he probably was.
@@jil2645 The 'Food Shows' is just how Mikey keeps himself going with his constant workout regiment. Secretly, he is real life One Punch Man.

Claire Saffitz of the House of Bon Appetit, The Untempered, Queen of the Test Kitchen, Mother of Pastries.

This was the perfect first episode of the series! Seeing Reina host here really showed how much she shines, especially talking about her culture! Claire and Mike were perfect guests too! I can't wait to see more of these!
i love how mike got a hold of that yakisoba and never let go...
Iwan Lohor Mike’s the man!
Let it go, let it go, can't hold it back any more
The title is a bit misleading - I was hoping for Mike and Claire to actually interact with each other..
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing after reading the title. Would be interesting to see the interaction. Also to get Claire's take on some of those food items Mike was enjoying.
Me too
Agreed! Although it's an awesome episode, I'm disappointed 😢😢😢😢😭😭😭
Clickbait for views
Would also have been nice if they'd tried something other than plain Pocky and two other options that were essentially plain Pocky in a different shape, too. Three out of five of their choices were dull as dishwater.
Why is the interaction between Claire and Reina so pure and wholesome ??
Mike Chen is amazing, constantly eating you know he really loves it
I love how the new dish comes and Mike is still chowing down on the yakisoba.
You know Mike ate all the leftovers.
All this love for Claire I'm like... I hope Mike felt full after all this, man's gotta eat, portion sizes too small for him he could eat everything they ate on this episode XD
I love how Mike is still snaking away while the ladies are describing everything and chatting.
The production, pacing, and personalities are really top notch for a series premier. Good job FWF hope this show does well cause I want to see tons more!
Everyone: "Omg the girlsss". Me: "Im here for Mike"!
Everyone knows that Mikey actually eats the whole serving of all the food they get.
Mike eating the crap out of every single thing is a serious mood
hes the food dumpster. just give him whats left and he's going to devour it
As long as there's no Broccoli 🤣🤣
Mike is just an absolute machine
Mike Chen and Claire Saffitz, now that's a combo I never even dreamed of.
Rights keep dreaming. This was clickbait. grrr
@@mariaj3263 :( sadness ensues
Keep dreaming it doesn't happen.
Seeing Reina host this show with such production value is really something.
“It’s not as giant as I was hoping.” - Claire Saffitz
Pocky: Tasty snack or low-key sex toy? Let the polling begin!
I could also see that quote from Mikey, referring to the onigiri.
CLAIRE!!! I love how she looms over Reina Scully like a giant woman since she's usually the smallest person in the test kitchen.
Eating Onigiri:
Everyone: bites
Mike: *B I T E S*
He basically inhaled a third of the onigiri in like a fraction of a second
Lets move on. Mike: Decapitated.
The production of this show is amazing. The graphics, the music, the pacing of the show. Just top tier. So happy for Reina! She's killing it.
Mike Chen eating all the food without caring about the world represents me
I laughed harder at this than I should have 😂
Mikes all like "Oh, we have to share?... that's cool, that's cool."

I saw Ming Chen and so I clicked. However it was Mike Chen :(
Didn't see Claire, I skipped

Love Reina and Claire so much! I was lucky enough to visit Japan and it was so beautiful. I really miss it, so it's nice to watch a series that feels so special and personal to Reina and also myself!
this feels like a TV on youtube, rather than youtube
For a brief moment I was so happy that Claire was in Japan. But nope, still New York, just 15mins away from the test kitchen!
I love how Mike just don't give a damn about what they're talking and just eat like if there was no tomorrow.
My boy Mike going hard on the noodles and talking about anime is such a mood
Holy shit this is like a whole ass show!!! Go Reina!!!!
Reina Senpai :D
So happy for you to have your own show.
Can't wait for future episodes.
Something about how she switches from Japanese to English so flawlessly with no accent is amazing to me.
Shorty is a different type of rich😞 her family owns the whole damn thing.
It’s cool to see reina doing stuff, I haven’t heard about her since sourcefed so.

I cannot be more excited to see 2 of my favorite in a video. I love Claire and Mike. 😭😭😭

My first thought when I saw Claire was "wait, she exists outside the BA test kitchen??? They let her out??"
She actually freelances now so She's not Even there full time
"THEY LET HER OUT?" poor Claire 😭😭😭
Loved this! Anything with Reina Scully is awesome and a treasure!
Wow....Reina and Claire are both really articulate individuals 🙌
Where ever Mike goes, the plates are returned clean. Respect him alot for that.
