Chef Koji: Is the parent that will love you no matter what
Mayline: A stereotypical asian parent whos never satisfied
Chef Mac: Funny uncle
The best family
Shockingly accurate
Grant: favorite child
Mayline saying "I wanna hate it but it's good." Sold it for me
New lore ? nice
i find it hilarious how the michelin star chef is the most generous reviewer while the google reviewer is the most harsh
His judgement was affected by the caveat that they were complete novices. I assume if the challengers had been trained chefs with 10 years each under their belts the judgement would have been far more severe. As it stands I think the boys did surprisingly good for a first attempt, hence the high scores. All of them far exceeded his expectations.
Unles its Gordon Ramsay - which would have been more hilarious but obv too expensive to get flown over and all
@@ForumcoldiArchon That would have been fucking hilarious but he’d still have less harsher judgment since theyre beginners
@@ForumcoldiArchon To be fair, Even Gordon wouldn't probably go very hard on them. They don't claim to be professional chefs, and are basically novices. Thus, there is no insult to the culinary profession. And he always plays it up, naturally, but still.
@@HangmanVa Gordon is also not that aggressive in the kids cooking shows, he is only super critical with people who call themselves chef (like in kitchen nightmares) or who are professional chefs
Meylin: Connor, you didn't do too bad, taste was good. You get a 6.
Also Meylin: Grant, you did shit. You pissed and shit in my food. dropped it on the floor then picked it up again and fed the dirty food to me. YOU GET A 6!!!!!
We all know who's Meylin's favorite now 😁
it 6 yes, she mentioned it two times~
youre highly exageratting.
America TV compare to British tv
@@FM-dm8xj It’s almost like it is meant to be exaggerated 🤔
If you watch the chefs' reaction video Joey's skill is apparently next level, because instead of using the more flexible Sashimi knife (the Yanagi) he was told to do it with, Joey accidentally skinned the fish with the significantly stiffer deboning knife (the Deba), but did it perfectly, something that astounds and confuses Chef Koji to no end
Link?
I feel like its pretty clear from watching this that Joey was actually just the best cook, or at least had best knife skills. Connor fucked up cutting his fish but his dish was also by far the easiest. Garnt pretty much just didn't have enough time to finish. Joey actually put out a pretty surprisingly good looking dish.
@@somethingbesidesmyrealname5389 well technically in the reaction video they said taimeshi takes a few hours to cook and they didn’t know there was a time limit but yeah Joey is probably the best cook
Where can we find the reaction video?
I mean Australians knows their knives :D
Feels like Joey's obsession with peeling stickers actually morphed into a skill that helps him remove the fish skin that gain him some extra points
Sticker-man pulling out a miracle
@@jaxongray3558 sticky fingas
He trained his whole life for that moment.
The flashback of the shonen protagonist during the boss fight
This is some Karate Kid philosophy. "Show me peel the sticker."
@@jaxongray3558 hmmm i proabbly be happy to have him as spider man for my neighbourhood
Chef Koji is the real MVP here, I feel like he really took consideration that the three of them are super duper beginners. I love how he actively praise them as well and highlighted the positive points instead of the negative ones. As a beginner it can be really discouraging to fail (even though it's very normal) and it can be nerve wracking to present your work to other people (let alone a Michelin star chef), so his positive reviews really warms my heart. He's a super kind and encouraging teacher.
Just like a some good uncle
Just like a some good uncle
Definitely Agree with that. But on the other side i think they were good at taking consideration because the boys actually did it well, i mean just imagine you put your 5 yrs of life just to be perfect at slicing fish but the boys only took like 1 hour of demonstration and gets it i mean sure its not perfect but atleast they managed to pull it off.
I think he's a very nice guy(a rarity for elite type people like Michelin star chefs). Imo he's a really good teacher. I think he's too nice but that has it's own advantages too especially when teaching people how to do things.
yeah, he makes you want to continue creating
Connor: 30:38 "I don't care if Meilyne give me bad score"
Meilyne: *gave him bad score
Connor: *surprised pikachu face
Between this and joking about Garnt breaking his bike, Connor's getting really good at telegraphing the Choke.
@@NuevoSMD He's not called ChokeDawgVA for nothing
"I'm sorry, did you take a life today?!" LMAO. Legit think Joey was the only one that could do his recipe. I think they chose good recipes for each person. Connor's fit his sort of bull in China shop approach, garnt's fit his need for simple directions, and Joey's highlighted his ability to do delicacy and attention to really specific detail.
And his ability to handle even the worst of gore and disgusting shit if it's for the sake of food.
@@jacobnorris8256 exactly!
How much were you paid to say that?
Yeah, its really cool to see. Im not sure if the chefs looked into them beforehand to find recipe's, or were reccomended by Meilyn or someone, but it was neat to see.
Also not buying the ‘the recipes are random’ crap-there’s no way Connor could have made that sashimi without losing at least a couple of fingers.
Chef: Were gonna make a classic Japanese dish
Connor: *super excited
Chef: Fish and Chips
This is a certified classic bri’ish moment.
Yeah bro i gotta need a cup of tea and some fish and chips
The easiest recipe for brit
It was inevitable
@@nasilemak5686 why L
Can we take a moment to appreciate how hard Chef Koji was trying to communicate in English with the boys.
He looks so adorable doing his best to communicate in English. Chef Koji is truly the mvp.
His English is good
As far as I'm concerned his English was perfect, I never missunderstood anything he said and Chef Koji came off as hilarious, something incredibly difficult to do in a language that is not your own!
He was the MVP of this special, 100%, he was so nice and funny.
Yeah I appreciate that
Chef Koji is so cool, patient and humble while being so talented.
Ikr
can we just appreciate the joke that the left judge said when he tasted Garnts dish:
"Unlike Meilyn I don't poo poo everything the moment I taste it. It normally takes a few hours."
Stellar comedy from this guy
that chef was such a good teacher, you could tell he wanted to compliment each of them just so they continue to learn to cook, everyone wishes they had a teacher like that
Meanwhile meilyne.. xD
The chef has a great personality for the camera. I'm not sure if he's done stuff like this before but he seemed like a natural.
It's a bit of a Japanese trait there. They often give compliments instead of criticism.
meanwhile... in a place far away:
"ITS FOOKING RAW, GEWT THE FUCK OUT OF MY KITCH HEN YOU SORRY EXCUSE FOR A FOUHKIN COOK"
tbh i think hearing some more critism wouldve been nice too. If i were to cook something first time, I would want to know what couldve been better and what i can best work on and how exactly to accomplish it rather than the compliment of doing an amazing job (unless i really do an amazing job for first time based on first time standards)
- Joey drew the long straw with that dish
- Grant pulled the short draw with his dish
- And Meilyne cheated Connor out of second
Garnt's protagonist powers really pulled him up to joint second. The sob story of hardest dish and the mom flashback (not to mention Meilyne's mismatched scoring) is such the culmination of Garnt's first cooking arc.
@@mukundbalasubramanian1229 it felt so bullshit I can completely see it be the plot twist of a shonen manga
I don't think Joey's dish was the easiest
@@The_oli4 no, I know, I just mean he was given the least steps, he had to remember the least
I fibd meylins input a bit redundant. As connor said, she trashed grants food and still gave him the same amount of points as gim.
I think its a bit unfair to use someone in the judge who is familiar with these guys and thus kind of biased.
Chef Koji was so gentle and supportive of them it really made me a bit emotional
Because thinking through the lens of his life, he probably didn’t get as much praise for when he started learning how to be a masterchef, since chef apprenticeship is very very stressful and chefs aren’t always the best at being kind with words (part of the reason, of course, is because they want their chosen apprentice to improve).
The fact that he had the idea of “The hate stops at my generation”, really made it touching for me
56:56 56:56 56:56 56:56 😊😊😊😊
show this to Gordon Ramsey
Joey’s entrance: nice and polite
Connor’s entrance: aggressively confident
Grant’s entrance: internally screaming
Pretty sure there were some external screaming too lmao
1:06:38 Chef Mac is a part time comedian. Chef Mac judges beginners fairly, Chef Koji praises his children for making edible dishes, and Judge Meilyne disappointed the meal didn't do her taxes.
At least no plates where thrown in the trash or smash in the floor like in masterchef.
Chef Mac deserves a whole episode
Chef Mac really was a comedian. I particularly liked his "pretty... pretty... pretty..." Curb Your Enthusiasm reference.
@@nexusprime2487 well masterchef contestant is not beginner, the judgement should be comparable to masterchef junior...
@@nexusprime2487 Because the expectancy for Masterchef is being professional. All of the contestants have varying levels of experience in cooking, atleast they know the basics. Koji here is judging the 3 dudes like it's masterchef Junior, since they literally have close to zero cooking experience.
In comparison Hell's Kitchen is way harsher because EVERY participant is a professional chef already.
I fucking love how Joey is just casually murdering a fish while Connor and Garnt are freaking out
This is why I knew that he was the one that was gonna win, Because he was really focused and comitted into his dish. notice that he was the only one that was the most quietest while preparing their dishes.
@@KarasunoFE agree, he was not complaining, btw, conner should be second.
When you gotta do, you gotta do
Well, he did chop up his friends (who, might I add, were unwillingly kidnapped in broad daylight) just so he could have "the white man experience". So a fish is nothing to this man now.
_-If you know, you know.-_
That's how you win a competition, traumatize the competition lmao
Man Meilyne did Conner dirty, wasn't his fault that the dish came with scales
Bruh how did Garnt get a 6 from her when there was a bone in it LMAO
the favorite child
I thought the same thing, she gushed about how his food tasted perfect, but because it had scales and he "just dumped it all on a plate" (they were like fish bricks, what was he meant to do? build a wall with them?) and she dumped his score four points for stuff he had no control over. She couldn't even be even a little nice and give it a 7.
Back from watching the Hawaiian special
Honestly, the Hawaiian chef’s judging were better than Meilyne’s
Mayline proved 100% that parents have favourites
The senpai is so wholesome, honestly felt like on the brink of tears every time he complimented them XD
Bro same I felt so proud and he wasn't even complimenting me 😭
When said "You are amazing" to Joey it was one of the most wonderful and wholesome things I've ever seen
For real! He was so proud of them. He was so sweet!
Dude when he gave him the 10/10....the pride in his eyes and him saying you can start working for me, that was so cute and wholesome.
lmao i think that says more about you then him
The boys: *Delicately learning cooking skills*
Meilyne: Soo have you spit on your siblings??
Have any of you guys licked sweat?
edit: Meilyne is quickly turning into a favourite of mine lmao
Meilyne is my spirit animal.
If you haven't spit on your sibling you haven't had a real childhood
Spitting on your siblings is normal while fighting, me n my sisters used to spit in each others mouths while fighting to assert dominance
@@MegaZayd1 thats kinda sus bro
Bruh we bite each other
Once again, Meilyne shows us she's wild as hell and is shocked when these good Boys aren't. "Do you Bucciarati your husband??" "you don't with Sydney?"
What's bucciriati or what does that mean
The taste of a liar!
@@PrinceLobo-es8kl might be a character from jojo you see in that tongue gif
@Priyanshu Singh My favorite character from anime JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, he licks sweat and detects if the person is lying or telling the truth lmao
Hey talking about the spit that gave me sweet home Alabama vibes
Chefs: This was very difficult dish to make and I'm impressed with what you were able to manage.
Meilyne: If someone served this to me in a restaurant, I would have thrown it right in the trash.
tbh, I agree with meilyn, let's be real nobody cares how 'difficult' certain dishes are,they want it served no matter what.
Chef Koji is like that gushing teacher who wants the best for his students. So wholesome.
Yeah, I love that chef 🍺🍺🍺🍻.
he just complementing mediocre dish, he's just being nice to not hurt their feelings.
@Muhammad Azraf bin Mohd Akmam Yeah but those dished were cooked by dudes who just learnt it, didn't have it written down so they had to memorise it and had 0 prior experience
@@muhammadazrafbinmohdakmam4772 Considering these people barely ever cook in their life, I would've done the same as Chef Koji. As a judge, you need to adjust your standard to the skill level of the people you're judging.
@@MonkeBrain07 Exactly. If you ask a 6 year old to draw and expect like a Picasso level painting you just need a straight up slap to your face
Can't wait to see connor drop the plate at the last moment
No spoilers bro
Please no spoilers
LMAO this made me laugh hard
I think that's just based on how he always mess up at the very end of every special. That being said, I hope he actually drops his plate, lol.
Bra same.
This time, Joey definitely deserved the dub considering he's the only one focusing for the most part on learning segment. Connor should of get higher score from Meilyn though than Garnt given her critique. Garnt also should of been given more time to prepare than the others because he's dishes is probably the hardest.
Connor: yours is so good compared to mine
Chef Koji: bruh. it's almost like i cook for a living
Meyline giving Garnt a 6/10 was the biggest paid actor moment I have ever seen holy shit 🤣
With the amount of negative feedback she gave about the dish I laughed out loud when she gave Garnt the same score as Connor XD
actual biased judge ngl
Yeah that was biased, but the dish selection was biased as well, so ends up just the same IMO
not really, only joeys was "easy" the others were about the same difficulty
@@Angoose_ Other than him needing to remove the skin of the fish (which is really difficult) his was a bit easier to prepare.
Chef Koji is such a good teacher. He can joke around while teaching probably helped the boys loosen up a bit. Very positive too!
Props for the boys to pull off these difficult dishes under time constraint and seeing the steps for the first time.
As someone who has been working in fine dining for over ten years, and has even been an executive chef of a multi-million dollar restaurant, I have no qualms about saying that Chef Koji is a true chef. The difference between a chef and a kitchen manager, is how well they teach and develop their people. Chef Koji did a phenomenal job of teaching them some basics.
Joey actually got a huge advantage in this special. The fact that he didn't need to cook the fish eliminated a whole section of extra steps the other boys had to go thru.Feelsbad for Connor and garnt
It certainly saved him a lot of time, sure. But making sashimi, especially with a flat bony fish like flounder, requires finesse. I'd argue he had a more difficult job to do than Connor who just had to do a normal filet and then fry it. Garnt's dish definitely looked the hardest though.
Actually Connor had the easiest, it's literally just fried fish. He didn't even need to scale it. Joey's one requires good knife work to skin the fish and slice each pieces into neat looking.
Ok but he had to like, murder a live fish. That probably makes up for it. xD
@@notverybright9825 yeah, and also using the wrong knife to perfectly skin a fish, the hardest thing to get right, is a feat not even chef koji said he could've done.
It was faster,but this brilliant knife work is super hard.
You know, I actually have a feeling that Joey is a silent genius and the fastest learner. Garnt may be the protagonist for the most time, but Joey is that side character that has hidden OP abilities that somehow surpasses the MC and has more potential than him.
Connor tho, a true antagonist as he is, keeps on getting shafted by the plot lmao.
Michelin prediction :
Garnt’s making lasagna
Joey’s making tsukemen
Connor’s making chicken and broccoli
We need to see the World Famous Lasagna.
I want to see this now
*WORLD FAMOUS Lasagna
Chris probably drinking beer on the side
Nah, Connor's making spam with mashed potatoes
I loved Chef Koji and I hope more chefs can take away from him. He’s obviously prideful of his work and is a master of his craft yet has retained his heart and didn’t let his ego get to him. He understood that the boys were new and respected their efforts. Not every great chef has to be a drill sergeant. Also happy we finally got a cookoff I’ve been asking for one since the biking podcast.
Probably has a lot to do with Japanese culture and respect being such a huge thing.
He was also funny tbh, cracked some jokes that made me laugh
He really sold the whole video honestly. Would watch a show just of him.
@@kimioops chef koji is a chef that i would want to have rather than my highschool cooking teacher😅
This comment!! Chef Koji was absolutely so sweet and understood the guys were new to the kitchen, didn’t judged based on difficulty if cooking and overseeing the kitchen. Just slaps on the hands, but that’s it.
Meilyne robbed Connor of his second place. 😭 Besides the presentation, Meilyne had judged his dish as low as she did was because of both Scales and that it was to greasy. These were two things that even the Chefs said he couldn't do anything about since the dish was made to leave the scales on like Chef Koji had said, and the deep fryer that Connor had to use was already used oil which is not ideal as the Chefs said.
Honestly, it was pretty unfair that Garnt had the same time limit with all the steps that took very long set periods of time. Im glad he actually did that well though even with the limit
tbh,any chefs could've did the dishes on time if they actually FOCUSED, Garnt spent his time running his mouth instead of thinking how to cut time.
@@muhammadazrafbinmohdakmam4772 running your mouth doesn't deny the laws of physics, he had to Cook his ingredients for like 30 minutes.
@@nilevelum yep that is definitely the excuse I would like to hear from the chefs when they are late serving my food.
@@muhammadazrafbinmohdakmam4772 then again, garnt isn't a chef.
Chef Koji was perfect for this, his personality and style worked so well with the boys. I love his positivity about their performances too.
Factsss
He was amazing! He was so encouraging with beginners and had great chemistry with everyone. Star of the showa
Yeah seemed like he was having lots of fun :D
Frfr big homie Koji
Chef koji seems like a fun person to train with
Major props on Chef Koji for having the patience to allow his sacred kitchen to be defecated on by 3 monkes
I think you mean "desecrate" buddy. "Defecate" somehow sounds worse in this context...
@@JarlBalgruff_ did the man stutter?
@@JarlBalgruff_ He clearly said "defecated ON" so... I think it's exactly what he meant:)
@@poetofthefall4413 Okay.... you have a point... I didn't read the on part so, yea... my bad
The "she's crying" line is proof that all chef's have a little bit of dark humor in them.
Honestly mad props to Joey for being like "lets get to work" making his dish without getting grossed out because I would have been as horrified as Garnt and Connor LOL
Chef Koji is such a sweet guy and Chef Mac was great as well
Connor
Meilyn: This taste good 6/10
Garnt
Meilyn: This is awful absolutely garbage 6/10
We live in society
I thought it was the other way around.
Honestly Connor's really looked bad, the flavor as they said was more on the good side
Garnt's probably didn't look as bad but had some bones so it's understandable
Both had bad presentations, both had errors in cooking (Connor's fish wasn't crisp on the bottom and had scales in it, Garnt's rice was undercooked and had bones in it) but both had good taste. I think that both having the same grade is actually fair.
@@M-Soares The idea of Connors Dish was that there are scales on it.He was the only one who didnt need to scale it off.
@@M-Soares Connor's dish is SUPPOSED to have scales in it. Meilyn took away like 2 points simply because she personally doesn't like scales
Joey saying "irasshaimase" to the workers has the same energy as saying "you too" to waiters or airport counters
I don't get it. Please explain yourself,,,,better.
@@layzy24 Basically Joey said Welcome to my shop/restaurant after the owners did.
Joey: “no, welcome to /my/ shop”
Reminds me so much of the tik tok meme
well he manage to impressed the chefs so he owned the restaurant now.
JK btw dont take my comment seriously.
To be fair I feel like Garnt got kind of shafted by his dish that he needed to prepare. His dish required so much more prep time for cooking and I feel like if he had enough time to cook the rice and debone the dish that he could have won.
It looked like he wasted about ten minutes fucking about when he could have started the rice and got the heat going for his dish at least. Would have saved him LOTS of time. Instead he went and just chatted with Joey and Connor
While I appreciate the chef taking the time to prepare and share three whole recipes and cooking methods, a competition should really focus on the same dish for fairness sake
this was more entertaining tho so I could understand@@na3rial
Chef Koji being soo kind and willing to entertain them was so nice to see.
joey: is japanese, is fluent in japanese and probably more fluent than most japanese speakers
also joey: says irasshaimase back to the chefs
Maybe he was nervous and worried
"enjoy your meal" "thanks you too" is universal
@@kaukospots i do this too much
This all stemmed from Garnt’s world famous lasagna

It adds up that Joey can perfectly skin a fish considering that he has a fetish in tearing plastic off things SLOWLY.
Brooooo 🤣
Chef Koji is the most wholesome individual I've ever seen, I hope he's living a good life. I hope he's happy and getting all the good things because he so deserves it. He's so wonderful.
Everyones praising Chef Koji, but I HAVE to give props to Chef Mac. I mean really, he is a natural on camera, he was very witty with his words and made the whole experience a lot brighter
he felt like a natural presenter, he must have been on camera before
Both chefs were very amicable with them and Meilyne was the most strict with the score even though she was friend of them
I agree Chef Mac must've been on TV before or something. However Chef Koji was really comic as well, and an absolute softie of a person.
He is radiating such a strong "friendly neighborhood uncle" energy.
He has his own channel where he posted a reaction, Maction Planet, he has his own content, that's probably why he's not really new to being on camera
Man, got to give it to Koji for being so patient and supportive. Its chefs like this that make cooking seem fun and approachable. He could’ve been prideful about his well-studied, decade-long livelihood but he was very kind and supportive to the new fellas joining in on the cooking passion to encourage them to continue cooking independently and optimistically. Much love to the chefs and the boys, this was pleasantly wholesome
I was pleasantly surprised with how kind and funny he ended up being, kinda hoping they do another cooking special and call him back.
koji is an experienced chef
he dealt with shit much worse than a couple of entertainers attempting to create food
i was about to comment something like this, but your comment is better written hahah
Joey explaining to Conner Garnt was the favorite child and he never stood a chance was the funniest thing ever.
They should invite the chefs over to the studio and talk about food in anime. Accuracy, looks, etc and learn more from their perspective
The way Chef Koji uses his words is so delicate and thoughtful. A very humble man. :)
'kill it'
*chef monke
Big boi is waiting~! *Glistening*
"They are nice guys" That is when you know that the chef was really struggling to compliment their cooking skills.
Honestly, they were quite good during the learning phase... until all 3 of them are in the kitchen, then it was like playing overcooked blindfolded.
I think the chef being very positive and forgiving has more to do with the fact that he has been doing this for a very long time. Above anyone, he knows how long and hard it is to be able to perfect the cooking techniques and master the dishes. So when he saw the boys trying their best to replicate these very hard dishes that were only taught to them once, naturally he won't be too harsh on the techniques or the presentation, because that takes years to master. As long as the dishes taste decent and aren't completely inedible, I think that's good enough for him.
It's like when you speak to someone who's trying their best to speak your mother tongue. You don't really care about their wrong grammar or pronunciation, you care about the essence of what they say. If you can understand what they mean then it's all good.
@@tokuen7796 The language example made your comment even better, and yes i do agree.
@@tokuen7796 I mean, its a refreshing sight. With the image of top tier chefs being heartless (despite yes, its being played up for the camera most of the time), The Chef's personality and attitude was just a delight
I like how the lady that just goes around to different restaurants, eats, then talks about it on Google gave harsher rating than Michelin Chefs with years of experience 😂
24:35 Grant: "what makes the best fish? What weather?"
Grant being a proper British person and asking about weather👀
Also, I understood what chef Koji was trying to say but I couldn't help but imagine the irony of fish having a good relationship with fishermen😂
I’m just baffled as to where Garnt was going with the initial question though 😂
This is the special everyone and their mother wanted. The amount of times food has been brought up on this podcast is unreal, so this was a long time coming. Shoutout to the chefs that helped make this possible, they were awesome.
pretty sure even moms will enjoy this episode too
Honestly with their trash takes I wanted a jankier special, kind of like the PC Building race... but this is good too. Chef Koji can roll with the boys' humor, and it made this soo much fun to watch!
@@maxxy2869 Absolutely, it’s definitely one of the more accessible Trash Taste episodes haha
I want a podcast with the chefs and Meilyne they were all so funny and great.
Too bad they think the audience is too weak to watch live fishes getting butchered....
Chef Koji is the nicest man ever, I adore him! Such a welcoming person to both the kitchen and the world of cooking.
If you get a chance you should go to his restaurant, I haven't been since he moved it from Roppongi to Akasaka, but i can't imagine it's gotten any less great
@@oivinf when i have the money, I'll certainly go
Chef Koji was so freakin wholesome, dude. Felt like a father passing on his craft to his triplet sons
“What is most important is how fresh it is”
In joeys head: he bought the fillets from this market that has the freshest cuts
The chef: Here is live fish now we must kill it
I love how chef koji said the word "she's crying" gently😂 16:48
I thought it was the funniest line XD
What a legend.
Timestamp?
agreed, it was so unexpected and so hilarious
It's horrible 😂
We can all see that the chefs already pre-determined who's gonna cook what.
Joey a Japanese style dish
Connor a British one
And Garnt a Thai dish.
"Thai meshi" haha
Sup fellow sect member.
No way the other 2 would've been as good at killing the fish as joey
i guess they wanted to give them something they would be comfortable with since they’re very much beginners
@@SkyflyNB he's a born killer
We all should’ve known Meilyne was a red flag the second they said they walk out of restaurants that are warm and is a dedicated google food reviewer 😭
I've never heard Garnt more distressed than at 36:28 , poor guy needs a hug lmao
Okay wait no 1:15:21 he was definitely more distressed, still in need of a hug
We need a sequel to this. They can all make their own pizzas to their preferences and then Meilyne judges who truly has the trashest taste
Does Garnt make a crustless pie, or rip the crust off afterwards?
@@zoulogist9171 we will never know...
@@zoulogist9171 Both are valid choices. I hope we can see what he comes up with.
And Meilyne will be extra harsh on Connor once again :)
Connor: Why there was that noise? *cutting the top of the fish*
Chef Koji: She's crying
I love the nicknames they have while cooking, like Connor being Chef Monke, Joey being Chef Karen, and my favorite, Chef Grant
As someone who doesn't eat fish I gotta say this was pretty entertaining lol. However from my point of view each of the boys had their own unique challenge to their dish. Joey had to kill a fish. Conner had to fry a fish which frying foods isn't that easy honestly. I'm sure fish is even harder to fry. And Garnt had a hefty cooking time to speed through as much as he could. And I'm sure deboning a fish while its inside of a pot of rice makes it even harder. Great job to them all for even finishing their dishes and not having a mental break down lol
Connor: "I ate Uber Eats for the last 4 months"
Also Connor, sees his fish doesn't look as good as Chef's: *surprised pikachu face*
that's the competitive spirit xD
He would fight the sun if he could.
is this one of his "accidental" episode or something? like when he is accidentally work for samsung. in this episode, he accidentally become a pro chef, maybe. LOL
"what was that noise" "she's crying" oh my god that chef's sense of humour is amazing haha!
I'm trying to find that moment again. Its such a good part lol
@@julioguzman5925 16:50
I appreciate that despite being a famous chef he had a sense of humor to him, I could see many scenarios where the chef was iron hardened serious around the clock
36:29
The way that Joey killed that flounder was like a barbarian shoving the sharp end of a stick through someone’s skull☠️
And he did it with a smile on his face😅
Connor downplaying his abilities less than 90 seconds into the video, gotta love it
No replies? Don't mind if I do

Koji is an international treasure.
Here's hoping Mac is the next guest in the studio because he was really bantering with the boys and Meilyne and looks like could make for a great episode.
I would honestly love a sequel, and like a true follow up, with stakes raised with the difficulty of dishes taken up a bit.
Joey killled this challenge! lol both literally and figuratively 😂
I wanted to cry from how cute Koji was. Such a wholesome person to have around. Such a good special!
i loved chef koji. he was so chill and made jokes with the boys while being informative, positive and encouraging. i’d love him to make another appearance on a future special.
I hope so too!
Chef Mac was also such a lad
drift special with chef koji
Yes! We need to know what kind of anime and what 'cultured entertainment' he likes. Please invite him as a guest for a main episode.
chef koji supremacy
Garnt: Cooking rice is not that easy
Joey: *I'm sorry, did you take a life today?*
I'm honestly so proud of the boys for all cooking so well! Chef Koji was so wholesome while teaching and reviewing them too!
Meilyne's objective: *Judge*
Chef's objective: *Survive*
Chef Koji is such a gentleman. Love his personality.
Says this for the Fish!
Loved when he said he was going to teach Chef Monke to do fish and chips! Hilarious!
Dude is so nice, talented too anything he touches taste good even a tarantula.
Koji literally sounded like he was one step away from making Joey his Jedi apprentice.
Joey will eradicate all of the younger students, then finally join the dark side
Koji is such an amazing chef and has an wonderful personality, encouraging them and being proud of their result, really loved to see him judge
I love how meilyne just goes with like a minute monologue about why she hates scales on joey's turn just to say that the plate didn't had scales.
I think Joey really did deserve the W. Sashimi looks easy but requires a lot of skill to make (or so I've heard). Plus, he straight up killed a fish himself and added his own little visual flair to make the dish look more appetizing.
Literal blood, sweat, and tears were put into his dish
@@austinzepitaph3804 extra flavors for meilyn
killing the fish isnt a big deal and its pointless banter for the duration of the competition. they are also grown men. they were guided on how its all made and if you want difficulty to prep it be unagi bc the skin is filled with a mucous slimy layer where its like u put lube on a fish. Joey still wins imo
I agree he did the best job, as far as we can tell. But he also had the fewest ways to mess up and the least to do time-wise (which really messed grant up). Bit hard to judge potential if given more time vs. actual result.
Fishermen are laughing at this comment
Chef Koji is so positive, he managed to talk the boys up even when they themselves admitted they messed up. I really do hope we see him again.
The food world seems to have so many snobs, I'm just glad to see Chef Koji and others break this trend and be positive and encouraging.
Honestly the extensive cast of Trash Taste is almost more of a reason to watch than the bois themselves hahahaha so many good guests!
39:08 the fish was still alive ._.
Man this is just so wholesome, Chef Koji and Chef Mac are so sweet. I love them.
Honestly, Garnt should’ve gotten more time because his dish was the most time consuming.. I really liked the idea of 3 different dishes though it didn’t feel like the guys were being judged on the same standard. Also the chef was so nice when teaching and judging 😊 wish he can come again in future episodes
I would've loved if Joey's dish had a cooked component too. I'm fully onboard with a Shokugeki Round 2: all make the same dish
@@zuckasttv that be fun and interesting, couldn't be garnt's world famous lasagna though as he would win by a landslide lol.
yeah tbh they didn't feel like they were of similar difficulties, they should have done dishes which take around the same prep time and skill
Garnt's dish took at least 45 minutes by a pro (10 minutes to cook the fish 10 to cook the rice and 15 to debone the fish) and had over 1.5x more steps to remember he got screwed over here. The Judge even said he doesn't have enough time to finish.
@@saiyanfang1047 yeah, he did a great job for the time he had.
Chef Koji and Chef Mac we’re amazing. Chef Koji was so patient and kind with the boys and you can see his talent from a mile away. Chef Mac was really funny and had amazing chemistry with the boys and Meilin. I’d love to see him on a Trash Taste episode sometime to hear about his time as a British chef in Japan.
Yeah, I hope they can bring him on as a guest. That would be so fun!
woah! amazing idea i wont mind watching a episode with him on the podcast!
Yeah, Let British Take Over trash taste
I'm just quoting grant. 🙌
This
That will be the first ever Trash Taste episode where the guests walk out mid recording just from sheer disgust of awful food takes the boys have.
Jeoy did a great job on this episode. Flounder is a real hard fish to prepare. He deserved the W
Chef Koji and Chef Mac actually reacts to this video. It's on Chef Mac's channel called Maction Planet.
I'd love to see these guys go into a Masterchef with Gordon Ramsay someday
for some reason i also wanna see a collab with uncle roger lol
also nice pfp change, looks cool
That's like asking for a public execution 😧
At least they will unlock achivement of being called "donkey" by Gordan Ramsay
Now thats a good suggestion
Gordon Ramsey recently discovered what twitch is and is open to the possibility to twitch cook champs
"Joey is a pretty good learner, if its not cars"
Says the monke who broke all the cars while drifiting
To be fair, he was actually drifting, and Joey was learning to drive
@@dariogutierrez6716 yeah
Monke was actually drifting BUT manual cars can be hard to drive if you are learning to drive xd
joey never even drove manual, so his was the best time
Chef Koji is so wholesome, I absolutely love how he's giving his best to teach the lads.
Chef Mac is just really well suited to be in front of a camera, his wittiness is just fantastic too.
You know it's gonna be good when they start out by saying “we had to censor it a bit because Joey committed murder.” 😂😂
How is a google reviewer more judgemental and critical than two actual professional chefs who dedicated their whole life to cooking and realizing how hard these 3 dishes are
Because there’s no context for difficulty to someone who doesn’t know how to make it. Her judgement is purely based on taste and presentation
@@powerpuff4ever Gud point
She built different
Expertise isn't shown by the amount of words you can use to explain something, but gow easy you can make it to understand.
Also, the judges have a reference point of a "industry level" standart
I also think that she was more critical because she is actually close to them but you could tell the chefs were being generous to them (taking in the difficulty of the dish and their general lack of experience in the kitchen) as opposed to being objective like Meilyn.
God, I pray that Meilyn and Ashley are the judges. They are the most terrifying critics after all.
Addendum:
And all our fears are right. Meilyn what the actual frick? You did Connor dirty with that 6, its should have been 7.
And Chris !!!!
@@silentotaku6465 If Chris is one of the judges, this would already be the best video all year.
At least meilyn is guaranteed to be one of the judges. There's no other way
I agree Chris, meilyn, and Ashley are judges with guest judge Kaho omg
@@DasDieDerErik damn, and Chris will finally be able to eat Connor's chicken and broccoli
this was great. the multiple angles, cameras, and the chefs. great vid, worth the wait! ♥
Chef Koji is that one NPC in a game where he's such a well written character that you start to feel sad when he dissapears after the mission
