Thank you so much for highlighting the Orlando food scene! We have so many amazing places here and the food scene is definitely underrated. Please check out Susuru, JuJu, BBB Tofu House, Korea House and Ramen Takagi next time also!
You should’ve tried the fried shishito peppers at Domu. It’s to die for… and the sauce they come doused in; amazing. I always order it with a side of rice to soak up the sauce.
I'm so glad Mikey is showcasing our Orlando Michelin restaurants! However, he missed on the best part of Domu! You cant go there without trying the Domu kimchi butter Korean fried chicken wings.
i’ve had the Crabby Patty at Domu and it truly is so good. The ramen there is good too as well. Tori Tori is always at capacity anytime i’ve tried to sit and eat and i’ve heard nothing but great reviews. I’ll be adding sticky rice to my list of places to try . Born and raised in Orlando , it’s nice to see creators share our gems in the city.
You telling me I had the chance to honk at Mike Chen on the road and I missed it? Damn. Also disappointed he didn’t stop to get some desert at Sampaguita since he was already over there
Sticky Rice, Domu and Tori Tori getting some love make me happy! All these places are so damn good. The lemongrass beef jerky at Sticky Rice is my favorite too!
You missed the wings at Domu, best wings in Orlando. The dumplings in Zaru are delicious but the other 3 appetizers are even better. My favorite one is the grilled chicken one. For anyone wanting a chicken sandwich instead of the biscuit at swine and sons, try out Jamz Hot, best fried chicken sandwich in Orlando, by far. And for dessert, right across from Zaru and Tori Tori, ice cream at Sampaguita.
More Lao Food Please! Don't forget the sticky rice. Sticky rice goes with almost every meal in Lao cuisine. what the baguette is to French cuisine sticky rice is to Lao cuisine.
More reason for me to head to Orlando someday! Sticky Rice in particular got my attention because I've not yet had Laotian food in my lifetime. Must try!
Omg welcome back to Orlando!! I strongly suggest jinya ramen and susuru izakaya (by far the most authentic izakaya experience I've found so far in America)
The crab rice will definitely taste good with the soft shell crab! We definitely will try Tori Tori. I live in Orlando and never heard of these restaurants. I live behind Magic Kingdom in Windermere.
Hey, what are the names of the restaurants you visited? I don't see them in the description, and want to check these out since I'm heading to Orlando next week.
I could be wrong, but I believe these were the restaurants: 1. Swine and Sons - 1280 Orange Ave, Winter Park, FL 32789 2. Zaru - 1110 E Colonial Dr, Orlando, FL 32803 3. Tori Tori - 720 N Mills Ave, Orlando, FL 32803 4. Domu - 3201 Corrine Dr Ste 100, Orlando, FL 32803 5. Sticky Rice - 1915 E Colonial Dr, Orlando, FL 32803
Any Ramen Lover in Orlando knows the only place to really go is Ramen Takagi off of Aloma. They also won "Ramen Rumble 6" here in Orlando (seriously look it up). When I miss TRUE Japanese Ramen, I go there for my fix.
Next time you go to Domu you need to try their kimchi chicken wings! They've been awarded best chicken wings in Central Florida for several years in a row
Too much going on that toast. Shashuka is nice by itself. The Udon noodles were amazing looking, the yakatori place was on point. The ramen I could eat all day everyday. Right on Orlando!
I get that at the first place, that was a mash-up of shakshuka and avocado toast, but it seems to me there was no need for the avocado on it. I'd go for shakshuka toast if it was just shakshuka on toast. I love avocado, just not on toast.
My man....how you go to Domu and don't get the wings is wild to me, lol. I really didn't know that was possible, lol. I'm glad you enjoyed our city, though!
Uhh body language and facial expression says otherwise. Swaying the head side to side is actually more positive than up and down. Indicates that something is so good it's unbelievable.
I know you love hot pot, and Bashu Hot Pot on West Colonial is the most underrated spot. Thank you for showcasing the great, affordable spots we've got around here

Tori Tori is FIRE! Insane food, nightlife as well.
Thought your eyes were going to pop out of your head when you tasted the pork belly!! Love, love, love sticky rice!
Some of my friends in a local foodie group in Orlando on fb saw you and took pics it was so cool!!! Some of our favorite spots!
You should’ve tried the fried shishito peppers at Domu. It’s to die for… and the sauce they come doused in; amazing. I always order it with a side of rice to soak up the sauce.
I love having breakfast with Mike such a good start to the day
Sticky Rice's yellow curry chicken rice bowl and lemongrass beef jerky are the BEST
I'm so glad Mikey is showcasing our Orlando Michelin restaurants! However, he missed on the best part of Domu! You cant go there without trying the Domu kimchi butter Korean fried chicken wings.
Facts
The bites at Domu Chibi also insanely good, so crispy even under the sauce, it's an addictive combo. Love that place!
Going there this weekend 😊
Orlando resident. Tori Tori has THE BEST crab fried rice I've ever had
Aww man!! I wish I could have met Mikey in town! 😆 So happy to hear you enjoyed Orlando's food scene!! Lots more to come.
That biscuit looked like it had been sitting on the counter for weeks… Tori Tori looked 🔥🔥🔥!!!
The Richie Rich is hands down THE BEST ramen at Domu. My favorite Asian place in Orlando. I go probably once a month ❤
i’ve had the Crabby Patty at Domu and it truly is so good. The ramen there is good too as well.

Need more Michelin Cheap eats
Mike, you really inspire me to go out, and explore all the cool food joints I have in my area! Thank you! ♥♥♥♥♥
OMG!!!! Thank you so very much for your wonderful reviews of all the meals at these restaurants here!!! ❤
You telling me I had the chance to honk at Mike Chen on the road and I missed it? Damn.

Hi Mike
Thank you for sharing!!
OMG, you just hit all my favorite spots. Just had Sticky Rice yesterday.
🤨
I’ve had a gastric bypass so I’m living through Mike 😂❤
Sticky Rice, Domu and Tori Tori getting some love make me happy! All these places are so damn good. The lemongrass beef jerky at Sticky Rice is my favorite too!
Thanks for coming through Tori Tori, Mike! So awesome to know you enjoyed it this much! Until next time😍

Gonna have to disagree on the chicken sandwich. Chicken Fire is better imo. But you won't be disappointed either way
Trip to Orlando is in my near future! Thanks for the reviews!

That biscuit is dryer than Death Valley 🏜️
9:41 I love Tori Tori! One of my fav spots in mills 50 district in Orlando and the crab 🦀 fried rice is absolutely spectacular
Tori Tori: you have to do the fried chicken with the fried rice. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
More reason for me to head to Orlando someday! Sticky Rice in particular got my attention because I've not yet had Laotian food in my lifetime. Must try!
Laos 🇱🇦 food is 🔥🔥🔥🔥✅✅✅
Come visit us 👍🏽
Should have tried the Domu wings! Definitely a must have for next time.
I love UDON!!!! Looked amazing!
Omg welcome back to Orlando!! I strongly suggest jinya ramen and susuru izakaya (by far the most authentic izakaya experience I've found so far in America)
Yesss! Love all of them😂❤

@@torizanoni1656 his first stop was swine and sons
@@RKB007516684 My bad, I was just going off of the sign outside. Thanks!
If you want really good bbq should check out Smoke and Donuts, it’s within a mile of Sticky Rice and it’s amazing
11:10 that's a lemon

You should try Hawkers on Mills next!
I agree. We have a family with lots of allergies and they always go out of their way for us.
If you’re ever back in Orlando, I can’t recommend Se7en Bites over in the Milk District enough, place is SLAMMIN!
Shakshuka toast...what a unique dish! Looked really yummy! Also, that dumpling skirt was so pretty I'd vote for her as prom queen 😆😋
12:34 an unfortunate angel? hehe! looks tasty.
My Passion Is Enjoying Different Foods As They All Share Flavors That Can Paint A Picture Of My Heaven Not The Other Heaven..
Groovy episode.
I will try the next time I hit up Orlando
Glad you tried some of my favorite restaurants in Orlando! Such great food in this city and very underrated.
Zaru was good but it wasn’t next level for me. I need to give it another try I guess
Take me to Japan Mike pleassssssse 😮💨
Drink every time Mike says crab when he's eating the crab fried rice ...
mikey was in orlando and i didn’t know 😢 my idol
Next time you go to Domu you need to try their kimchi chicken wings! They've been awarded best chicken wings in Central Florida for several years in a row
check out 92 chicken
The restaurants aren't listed, or am I missing them?
They are not, for some reason.
Maybe he had to pay?
Gotta love umami 😂
Too much going on that toast.
Shashuka is nice by itself.
The Udon noodles were amazing looking, the yakatori place was on point. The ramen I could eat all day everyday.
Right on Orlando!
Oh man, this made me sooo hungry! Found Sticky Rice on UberEats, waiting for the order now. Ordered everything Mikey had. Stomach growling…
Sticky rice goes with everything 💯💯💯💯
Ramen takagi is better than domu in my opinion and not far you should try it!!
Domu sucks
@@davidmckesey7119 big facts
I knew this comment would be somewhere 😂 💯
Mikey! I'm so glad you've discovered crispy chickpeas🎉
What was that first place with the chicken biscuit?
Thank you!!! Nice to get some food at great prices!
My hometown! I’ve been to all of these places
Hi from Scotland hope you're all safe and well my friends 🏴👍😉✌️🏴 looks delicious Chen Mmmmm lol
What's the name of the breakfast place, the first one?
I get that at the first place, that was a mash-up of shakshuka and avocado toast, but it seems to me there was no need for the avocado on it. I'd go for shakshuka toast if it was just shakshuka on toast. I love avocado, just not on toast.

Where was the chicken biscuit from?
You must have been near SoHo on Colonial - gosh I miss Otown - omg Domu is amazing it’s in Dr Phillips I thought
That biscuit looked dry as dirt😵
Are you coming to Tampa next Mike?
Where to go for the udon?
The softshell crab must have been really good because it knocked your wig loose.
Oh my
💀
😂😂😂😂
😂
Umaaaaaaaaaami!!!!!
ive tried the biscuits in New York a couple of weeks ago. They were so dry.first time ive tried them. im from UK
Go to Tennessee. You’ll get better biscuits in the south !😊
Which is your favorite from West coast to east coast
Are all of these from the guides?
What’s the 1st place called?
You Dipped The Noodles To Deep My Friend
Mike, when did you get married?! Congrats!
Please leave the name of the restaurants in the description
What was the first place he went too?
Domu is my neighborhood! Their brûlee egg is life!!
that ring is looking to escape
Mikey you gotta try gyu kaku! It’s me and my wife’s favorite place in Orlando, it’s happened bbq and it is delicious
The places are NOT listed down below :(
It’s a crime to go to domu and not get their wings 😢
Always wondered were Mikey’s wife’s been ….i like when she used to be on this….
Apparently she no longer wants to be on camera. She is there still alot.
my hot take is Jinya ramen is better than Domu's! love all these spots though!
If I was deaf, I would think you really don't like the food because you keep shaking your head as if you're saying no after each bite.
Good thing we have auto captions and good thing you are not deaf.
That is so true. Good observation, although I believe Subtitles are available. 👍
Body language says it all
When I see that body language it translates to.. "Damn that's good". I do tend to assume positive before negative though.
Uhh body language and facial expression says otherwise. Swaying the head side to side is actually more positive than up and down. Indicates that something is so good it's unbelievable.
Everything looked amazing today 🤤
But is it umami?
Can you do one for Tampa, please?
Can i just ask a question? why is it Americans eat pink chicken. In the Uk we would never do it because of food poisening.
Because you can’t spell “poisoning.”
Maybe because you have never heard of smoked chicken before
Smoking meats gives it a pink ring. It's different than undercooked.
I'm American and I don't and no one that I know eats pink (raw) chicken! Hello, salmonella! That's not very smart!
We don’t eat pink chicken. But can eat pink duck and quail
Can you make a vid about noodles. What is your preference think, thick, thin, flat etc and what is best for different soups or broths
I know you love hot pot, and Bashu Hot Pot on West Colonial is the most underrated spot. Thank you for showcasing the great, affordable spots we've got around here
He needs to try the Domu wings
scrumptious dumpling = Scrumpling!
Looks amazing as always! Love your content Mike ❤❤❤❤
😩
Tori Tori 🙏🐐
Yo! Literally in my hood!!
Where was the first place?
Mikey the next time you go to Domu you got to get the wings. Best Korean fried wings I’ve ever had.
They are ✅✅✅🔥🔥🔥
Couldn't put Domu's famous Kimchi Butter Wings on this review because they got so dang pricey 😭
