All of these places are cheaper than the fastfood chains. No wonder the chains are closing down. You get a much better, larger and often, healthier meal for cheaper. Good going!
Love it. Hey Mike. You were our savior during the pandemic. Other than the chaos and loss happening around us, I discovered your cooking channels and it made seclusion bearable.
For everyone complaining about Mike only featuring expensive meals and buffets on this channel, are you happy now? For the record, he's always mixed cheap eats with the pricier stuff so I've never understood the complaints anyways.
For me, a peasant, I actually prefer the buffets and luxurious meal videos. Why? Because I definitely can't afford them. So I watch how they look in videos like this lol. Cheap street foods are okay too. But they are less interesting for me.
Honestly I'd rather Mike just do what he wants. People will always complain. I come here to enjoy his reactions, the good vibes, and to see the kind of food that's out there
The first two places are LA Metro accessible. They are within easy walking distance from the Metro D line subway station on Western and Wilshire. There is also a Villas Tacos at Grand Central Market, which is only two blocks from the LA Metro Historic Broadway station.
Some people are commenting on the pinkish color of the chicken. The color of the meat isn’t always an indicator of it being raw or undercooked. The types of chicken used as well as the marinades can keep that color on the pinkish side. You can choose to not eat there but to call it undercooked is false. It’s the same with smoked meats. Also this is a Michelin star food video. They’re not getting their star because they’re consistently serving undercooked food. On a side note I love La Azteca and their Chile Relleno Burrito is the best.
yes! At my work (i waitress at an elderly home) the chicken is sometimes the tiniest bit pink and it’s not cause it’s undercooked! If that was the reason, all the 75+ elderly people eating it would be very sick
Next time you’re back in town, you have to try La Azteca Tortilleria’s Chile relleno burrito with Chicarron - the gooey cheese pull combined with the crunch of the chicharon is almost orgasmic
When Michelin star’s original started it was all about the tasty food and not about how pricey etc it was. These are bib gourmand which is extremely tasty food for decent prices not exactly a Michelin star but some of the best food for the price.
Thanks for your videos but you skip through the name so quick and it's not clear...I know you write ithe info but it would be nice if you actually show the storefront with the name first in full.. like holbox I had to go back to look at the name several times and it's hard to see the names most of the times of the restaurants
Next time you're in LA, check out Rowland Heights. Its where middle to upper class Asian folks move to escape the bustle of LA, and there are some truly amazing Asian restaurants out here
At the 2nd stop where they did the Roasted Chicken. You are supposed to mix the green and the yellow sauces they have together for an added flavor that just takes everything to the next level.
Holbox!! I went there 2 months ago and i still DREAM about that place. We had it twice on our trip. You should've tried the ceviche mixto. So fresh so clean.
God Bless America! It's people like Mike that reminds Gen X what it's always been about, but also shows Gen Z what they've been missing all this time. Tik Tok's Algorithm says, "no likey!!!"
To be fair with "under $10," most are for an item like a taco which won't fill you up like a full meal. That said, even if you got three tacos for example, it's under $20 which is still a solid deal for top quality food. The other places don't break you bank either, but you're likely paying closer to $20 for an entire meal over just one thing like a couple pieces of chicken.
It's not that cheap, but the quality is high. I have a place near me that has cheap food, it's called Wonderdog, it is in East Peoria Illinois and they are known for their $3.29 chili dogs. But they also have a daily $8.00 special, on Tuesday it's the Tenderloin. You get an 8 inch round Tenderloin, fries or tots, and a drink for $8.00, now that is a deal, and it's pretty good too.
@@pandersonnike When I want Tacos I just make them myself, for about 50 cents each, so 2 for a dollar. And they are the way I like them, with a lot of meat, a lot of cheese, a lot of tomatoes, and just a little lettuce, with my favorite Taco sauce, Ortega hot Taco sauce.
I want him to go to town at Burma Superstar and some of the Vietnamese places that do the 7 courses of beef. Plus the the awesome Italian deli shops. Oh and Ethiopian! 😋
When every other dish he eats is "one of my favorite all time dishes in the world", you gotta wonder if he really does understand whatever he is spewing out his mouth.
Zenghyalov Hatz sounds like something I'd love if I was in need of greens! Too bad it's in L.A. and L.A. (like Portland, OR) has turned into something out of a George Miller movie...
$13 FOR TWO TACOS?? That's not cost effective from a taco standpoint. Nor from a seafood standpoint! Not in L.A. anyway. Do you know the quantity of delicious ceviche you can in L.A. for that price? instead of one tiny piece in a small taco like tthat??? Ugh.
I think you're missing the point of the video. This video is about showcasing michelin star food that's cheap. You can find a taco place that is more cost effective, that's not an argument here. However, that's not even what's the video is about. Mike has done videos of taco in LA that's more cost effective, so you can watch those videos if you want. You're trying to argue one thing when the topic is complete different.
@@12345sdot that's not including the fact that the one shown in this video is brick and mortar establishment as well. So, compared to a taco stand or a taco food van, it's going to be more expensive
I’m not sure if you realize it but you shack your head side to side like no but your saying yes 😂and I feel like the people see you with a camera and shaking you head and there like damn we’re getting a bad review 😂😂😂

Didn’t know people even complained… 🤦🏻
Didnt even know about Liu's cafe and i drive by there all the time...know where im going for lunch tomorrow...
Luyu Dumplings is right next to my house. I love their dumplings so much that I walk there to buy their frozen dumpling twice a week lol
I would do the same if it was near my apartment. I love love love Dumplings and Dim Sum.

Holbox has an actual Michelin star
I have fallen in love with Peruvian dishes!!!! 💖💖
Oh yes! Thanks for this RUclips video. Yum. Have an amazing weekend.
Who can even tell what's your favorite or not. Every dish or iteration of the dish becomes your new favorite
Will try that Liu’s food next time I visit LA.
Fish Tacos are probably my favorite Tacos served anywhere in the world.
Thank you so much for making such in depth videos
I ❤ watching anything Mikey does.😊

Not many videos can make me crave eating it but for these Tacos Ill fly to get them.

Dude, the SGV is that way, too. Great Asian food of all kinds. It started changing to Asian in the mid-80s.
I have a trip to LA in September, this couldn’t have come at a better time ❤
Same 💯💯✅👍😀
East Coast trip Birria tacos nachos n noodles Birria pizza or oxtail pizza or cheesesteak DMV NY NJ
“Not too sweet,” music to my ears!
You are making me hungry 😂
La Azteca is definitely a great local secret.. well, not really a secret anymore! lol 😄

Did you open your Ramen shop in NYC yet? How about the Houston place?
closed.

Has been 10 years I be watching you
How can you absolutely love every mouthful of everything you eat? Even when you eat Costco or 7-11 frozen food?
The Armenian wrap was very interesting 😅
Cant wait to visit my BFF❤ in October. Hope we get to visit a few of these!
I do that Peruvian hot sauce fairly regulars and it's Awesome!
You are my fave diner! So thankful I discovered your RUclips channel!

Coming from Chiayi Taiwan, the city known for its chicken over rice, Liu’s cafe isn’t worth going unless you are nearby.
Michelin Star / Michelin Guide
There’s a difference.
Don’t be mislead.
Still good food 😎
Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸🇺🇸Nice food tour video🌷🌷
Awesome job Mikey drop a like for you
Do you have a report like that on the San Francisco Bay area also? I’d love to hear your suggestions.
I want him to go to town at Burma Superstar and some of the Vietnamese places that do the 7 courses of beef. Plus the the awesome Italian deli shops. Oh and Ethiopian! 😋
Mike why don't u try Ethiopian cousin in Little Ethiopia Hope u like it

Twisted tea at the ready 😂😂
I'm wasted 🤪

I umami that
😂😂😂😂😂
God, I miss LA Burrito. Nice owning a house, but I'd really rather have a huge burrito right now ...
we'd have to have mike on autotext or autosay saying umami, so the party wont die.....lol.
I miss LA for the tacos
I’m in LA right now! What are the odds? lol!
So what’s the name of the burrito place?
$3.05 for a pineapple bun seems a bit expensive, although it looks delicious.
Very reasonable price for L.A.
Ouch, thats a fricken overload of white pepper muting out to the broth's humble taste. To each their own
All looks Delicious!
Is there actual pineapple in the pineapple bun

Can you review Casa Bonita.
How do people eat this amount of food? Do they vomit it all up later?
Only the Chinese place and the burrito were actually cheap imo. Others were average/above average in cost, no?
w videao
the video was going well until the $5 taco as in singular.
it was seafood to be fair
I’ll help you sample them ..trust me I’ll share..oh yummy
I would love to see you go to your hometown in China.
USA?
Will be arrested on arrival.
He said he wouldn't go back to China because some form of meditation(?) he practices is banned there. Like you get arrested for practicing it.
I always crack up at how Mike shakes his head no repeatedly when something is really good lol.
It’s Hong Kong style , it’s a Taiwanese dish.
👍😎
Enjoy videos like this Micheline eats for under 10 bucks.
Did he say ArMAYnian instead of ArMEnian? ☹️
