Still remember the days mike wouldn't eat any sushi and look at him now, food looks so delicious

@@Arthrexx I enjoy a lot of different kinds of food, so I like to encourage people to try things. However, I know a lot of people who hate trying food that’s out of their comfort zone, so I usually suggest small steps that are likely to be positive. e.g., for sushi, even some of the cooked items are adventurous to a lot of people so I suggest starting with things like eel and smoked salmon. Separating the idea of eating something raw from the act of actually eating something raw can help too. Spicy tuna is popular among people who still don’t like the idea of eating raw fish, even though they are. In Mike’s case, I think that he was fortunate to have a very positive first experience, even though he tried a lot of things at once.

It's like, considering what you get with the experience, the price isn't all that insane. You'll pay more for far less in the states, and the sheer craftsmanship of the chef...a pleasure to watch.

This meal looks absolutely epic. Thanks for sharing this with us

That Wagyu sushi looked so extravagant

From a guy who wound't really eat raw fish to a Japanese Omakase experience. You've turned a corner my friend! Great to see you finding a new category to explore and enjoy.

what an absolutely magical experience.. beautiful

This looks like a once in a life time experience! ❤

Everything looked great, what a restaurant. Thanks for another great video!

Never been more envious, but thank you for sharing! Everything looks amazing, and I'm sure it smelled as amazing as it tasted.

Asian cuisine and Asian Chef's are the best in the world. These Chef's are very humble and very creative, they are definitely not on a power trip like the Western and European Chef's are. Bravo to this Master Chef who's preparing Mikey's meal.

I couldn't agree with you more. Western chefs are totally full of themselves, treat people terribly, and act like they know everything. You do SCULLERY WORK FOR A LIVING, GET OVER YOURSELF. The Food Network isn't calling any time soon, you're mad about it, and you want the world to know it, oooooo, big deal. I can't stand them.

Wooo! Everything looked so delicious!

I can almost taste it!!! that chef is genious!!! I'll take all the Wagyu please and thank you! Miso soup is my heart food - it makes me feel so comfy

I know it sounds silly, but I'm so glad he showed respect and wore a proper shirt instead of a T-shirt. I always feel a little embarrassed when he goes to fine dining in a T-shirt. It's a matter of respect for the establishment and sloppy dress just perpetuates the "Sloppy American" stereotype. Get a logo polo shirt at least. This was nice.

Mikey gets paid to travel around the world & eat all the best foods. What a job.

wow, what a talented chef. using that red hot wood charcoal to sear the soft fish without tearing it is really impressive.

I envy Mikey as I would probably never manage to get a reservation at this place. A tell tell sign that this is indeed a high end restaurant is how they prepare the rice. No sugar added and using black vinegar. At most luxurious sushi joints, red vinegar is all the hype, but this place doesn’t even conform to that. Shows the confidence of their dishes to be the best.

i loved how you included footage of the chef making the sushi with sound and not just music especially when recorded him putting the burned wood on the sushi it makes the video more satisfying

Looks amazing. Will try to get in there on our next visit to Tokyo!!

Wow... that last bite with the wagyu is probably the most expensive and delicious looking one out of them all. I really want to try that!

I love watching them make the dishes

That was the best "I want to be there" Sushi vid I have ever seen in my life. He is amazing.

The sushi looked extra delicious loved this video Smokey ❤

Watching him is brilliant his like a magician making that sushi! Amazing skill, like a show and dinner x

I absolutely love watching this talented sushi chef create such beautiful pieces. Visually they are gorgeous but, even though I’ve tried a number of times, I can’t stand the consistency of raw fish. Perhaps if they could take all of these expertly sliced fish pieces and put them on the grill I’d be good to go, lol!

Japanese chefs are so smart. Use the least amount of ingredients but charge the most. Well done!!!

Ohhh those oysters. Mmmmm. The rest looked fab too. Actually salivating at the screen 😆 🤣 😂

2 vids in one day!!!❤

Wow. Would love to try this. Never seen this method for sushi. Charcoal wood searing. Piece by piece. Bite by bite. Sensational. And wagu beef. Gasspp! Lucky guy you MM.😁😋😋😘🔥🔥♥😎

Thanks Mike for taking us out on a tour. We wish you all the best in your life.

One of my life goals.

That chef must have the toughest 'asbestos hands' I have ever seen. Just picking up the hot metal grilling grate like that!!! Wow!! This all looked insanely good!!

I'm proud of you, Mikey. Remember when you hate sushi in early videos? Now look at you 😀

Definitely something i want to try with my girlfriend when i visit Tokyo. Thanks for the video, Mike.

That was an amazing looking meal! Of course, it cost almost 5 dollars a bite, so it ought to have been life changing at the very least.

Over/Under as to how many times Bearface says "Uuuuuhmazing or Ooomami" on his next video

Is it really a michelin star? I can find another Sushi Shin in Nishiazabu with a star in the guide but the Sushi Shin Asagaya doesn't seem to have one. Just curious about which one you went to.

Wow! At 7:39 the meat looks so, so good!! I do envy him so much! Good for him!

Gotta love the Michelin star restaurant is just a hole in the wall, which makes it even better

The envy I’m feeling right now has to be unhealthy, lol. This looked incredible. Everything about that experience looked magical. The chef’s craftsmanship…chef’s kiss!

caviar, truffles, and wagyu!!! wow that's definitely a Michelin star

That charcoal technique was awesome. 🙇‍♂

Finally pretty early ish for something

you really need to try the omakase at royal sushi and izakaya in philadelphia, I know it sounds counter intuitive, but the fish is flown in from japan daily and the experience is amazing.

So glad Mike is now able to have the full sushi experience in Japan now

Nothing like edible works of art

I would have asked chef if I could hold his knife for a minute. Theres no way in a million years i could afford Japanese steel knives like that. I so enjoyed just watching the techniques used alone.

Mikey pulling up with a shirt on means its serious business time

I would absolutely love this. I actually prefer smaller more manageable bites for my sushi so I can enjoy it instead of stuffing my mouth trying to force it all down. This truly seems like it would be heavenly

Why do I do this to myself and watch these video as I lay in bed…..now I’m 🤤

I’ve had a raw oyster when I was like 6 because my parents friends played a little prank on me because I’d eat anything. It was like eating snot and not a fan but everything else looks so amazing! I can only imagine the experience it was to watch the chef at work in person

chef likes italian food im guessing. olive oil, truffle, balsamic vinegar? brilliant. also limes, caviar, so many different aspects. so different. love it. wish i can taste the experience

I need to get one of those wasabi rhizome grinding plate thingies, I have a “sharkskin” chojiro but it doesn’t seem to do as good of a job.

All this quality for only $100?! Crazy. I need to visit this place asap.

Awesome.. Hey Mike.. ❤️🐞

crazy. never been to a sushi place that does a mound of the sweet shrimp

I always love watching sushi masters at work. Their hand movements are flawless. It really is an art

Cant believe hes actually clapping at 15:55!! Lol!

Oh My, that looks so delicious. It's a shame it's so far away.

i’ve always wanted to know… and it’s none of my business… but i used to watch your videos from the beginning, especially the ramen tour you did in NY. i can tell when there’s so many people, you kinda just walk in the restaurant. in one’s like these, that are more intimate, do you call in and let them know who you are due to the intimacy, or do these restaurants usually just do intimate fine and dine? i know some restaurants actually do this so i was genuinely curious. what’s your take?

I remember that times when he didn’t eat raw fish… some other utuber helped him get over the fear🤣🤣 and apparently he hasn’t looked back since!!! I love love sushi!!

Only Mike can chow down a MICHELIN star sushi chefs food, as if it was some homestyle all you can out buffet and his last meal..
