Being Melbournian, I can confirm our actual "chinatown" is only one street, but basically the entire CBD is full of decent chinese restaurants. Quite a few of the places shown in Mike's video are not actually in chinatown proper, but around the CBD.

In Australia, we're very proud of our fresh seafood and local beef/lamb/kangaroo 👍 Notice to tourists though, Australian spice heat levels are much higher than American levels! Because of our wonderful Asian Australian population we've got used to Asian spices 😁 Authentic Asian flavours, Australian quality ingredients 👍
Every time I start a video I end up going to get my own meal to eat along with the video. It's now become a tradition with my partner to sit and watch while we eat a meal 😅

Big respect for blurring out the person in the background at the noodle place tbh. Person just trying to enjoy a meal in peace and you never know with social media. Some person might try to start a fight because someone glanced at you wrong for a split second.

He doesn't always blur people out. I think he does where feasible.
I love our Queen Victoria Market, it's so awesome! So many different cuisines to choose from 😍
Mikey, aussie here. If you really liked the Pineapple Fritter from McDonalds Australia, treat yourself to Red Rooster and try their Pineapple Fritter, its worlds better, especially with a little bit of their gravy
Welcome again t Australia it is expensive but we love seeing famous you tubers come to Australia 🇦🇺 ❤

there's no such thing as Austrailia towns because that would require people leaving Austrailia. Which is illegal.

@@TsunamiWombat I can see you don't know much about foods from other countries, perhaps some research will enlighten you or do you go on vacation to other countries to eat at Taco Bell during your stay? Australia is know for their own style of fantastic beef and seafood as you saw him at the market place (if you even saw the video) and yes if he's there eat LOCAL food not the same thing over and over.
I'm so happy you got to experience my local market
Welcome to Melbourne ma man! We're so lucky to have you here!!
The land was gifted to the people of Melbourne by Queen Victoria, hence the name. The fish market is one of the largest retail fish markets anywhere, the the zinc panelled deli area was built in the 1920's and is registered with our National Trust. The market is a living treasure for all of us.
Mikey, been awhile since I commented. I loved the different places and the food. The fish dishes seemed very nice. You get to eat at the nicest places with the most established food. Thank you for showing another food video. ❤🎉😊
Welcome Mike! Hope you enjoy yourself and get to explore other areas of Australia
So weird - but also amazing - to see you eating in Aussie venues!
Hope you had a lovely time in Melbourne Mikey!
That mussel place is my fave 🤤
Everything looks delicious! 😋
i've been waiting for this guy to go to Melbourne for so long, now i have good idea of some places to go to next time i'm in Melb
Glad you enjoyed Melbourne i hope you will come back we really do have some amazing food here 🥰☺️
We are spoiled when it comes to our seafood, glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for visiting Australia mate 👍🏻 good to have you here! Enjoy your time.
"I'm actually heading to Tasmania tomorrow" *screams in Tasmanian*
Giddy On Up? That’s what I’m about to do to start my Day😋🍽
Next time check out Springvale, Prahran, Footscray and Dandenong Markets!
Mate, I love it that you came down under. I hope you totally enjoy Melbourne.
It looks so clean
20 years ago when I visited Melbourne it was mostly Italian & Greek, China town wasn't that established but now it looks like a good place to visit & eat again plenty of choices of different restaurants & the variety of foods from many different nationalities.
The Jackman and McRoss bakery in Battery Point sell the best scallop pie in all of Tassie
Hi Chong Qing is my favourite place for noodles. Pork mince with chickpeas and a fried egg 👌
Those mussels are huge!
I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE IN MY CITY
Great video!
Welcome to Melbourne Australia!!! Umm I hope to bump into you and have a great meal while you’re here☺️☺️☺️

Nice array of food.
Went to Fortune Alley, they did not know you had even been there, bless. I swear I went to the same place for 20 years and only the manager knew I had been going there for that long.
We love your video ❤ and I never had Mussels. L.o.l and Food look Delicious 😋
Hi Mikey, I cooked your beef brisket noodle soup recipe! Best instructions, so delicious!!! Hope you enjoyed Melb and Tas xx😋😋
I miss Melbourne! Used to live there few years ago

It's called Australia. An Aussie is a person who was born here or who has citizenship.

Really? I'm sorry but other than the first 5 min at the market the rest is Mikey having his usual every day Chinese food, nothing "Australian" about this.
Adding to must to do list. Thank you for sharing Mike. Great finds.
Welcome to Melbourne! I actually walked past Fishing Season last weekend and thought it looked really interesting, I'll have to try it out!
Mikey, what determines which people in the background get blurred out?
You need to come to Adelaide and try the Central Markets here after Tasmania
The fish he ate was called a Murray Codd, it’s a borderline endangered species here due to the introduction of the European Carp, so not a lot of places sell it and most of us Aussies will catch and release it, although they are well known for being amazingly beautiful to eat, and the Chocolate powder on his icecream is called Milo, is a chocolatey, Malty course powder that you can mix with milk and make a milkshake, make a hot Chocolate, it’s a Aussie favourite icecream topping, not exactly gourmet, but it’s Australian Nostalgia at at its finest and made me smile.

Farmed cod mate, not sure if carp have anything to do with our cod numbers. All I know is our cod numbers are 1000% better than they used to be but that would have to do with fisheries. They are doing a fantastic job 😊
Do some people ask you to blur them? I notice that at times, but only random groups or individuals.
How do you not have Gout Mike! How???!! 😂
Have you ever been to Camden Market or Borough Market in London?? sooo good!!! it's all updated now
Great that you came to Australia wishing you a great foodie experience 😋. Lots of great eateries on the outside of Chinatown Melbourne 😋😋😋. Adelaide also has a Great foodie experience.
I wish you came to Brisbane Australia 🥲🥹
A lot of seafood you can get fresh in aus and nz especially mussels in most countdowns
Yesss siirrrrrrrr🎉🎉🎉
Love your videos ❤
Australian Vietnamese here. We have a large Vietnamese community with restaurants in the western and south-east Melbourne suburbs. Would highly recommend to go either Footscray or sunshine in west, or Springvale in south-east for authentic Vietnamese food. 🙏

We normally keep eggs refrigerated here in Australia to. Usually the only places you’ll find they aren’t, are ethnically owned shops. Be it Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese etc.
Sooo good😢😢

Welcom to melbourne from a melbournion
Yum 😋 💯
Please try Haoziwei Sichuan Food
I hope you visit again to the Philippines
This is the reason I can’t lose weight. There’s some much great food in Melbourne 😋
If those are giant aussie mussels. The one in nz must be gargantuan..... Lol those are tiny.... .
Why am I from Melbourne and never been to any of these places …I need to explore my city more
Wow 😊
There are the generic panda express type places in mall food courts. Even the Chinese and Japanese places are often owned by the same people.
