AHHH Im so happy now that I know I've been the same Mitsuwa as Mike Chen! I went to this exact one on weekends with friends in High School. One of the most memorable events that happend was a kid came in and screamed: I'M IN MITSUWA!
MIKE trust me. Put some kimchi, potatoes, and fish cakes in that extra spicy tofu soup! It is my fave!

Correct. He would flat out refuse.
Before the pandemic I used to road trip to this Mitsuwa once a month. Always start with a large shio bowl at santouka, hit the gift shop, then buy plenty of menraku ramen, mochi ice cream, ito en tea, and misc snacks. It's been a year, and I miss it deeply.
My mom and I love coming here whenever we drive through NJ. They have great chirashi bowls!
Omg you're traveling to all the spots I usually go to and I'm so sad to have missed the chance to meet you! I love the local content and thank you for all the hard work you put into all your channels!😊
Thanks for this upload. Was thinking just the other day of swinging by for a visit and now I see that there's a wait even during the week.

Usually mike didn't like raw fish. But after he tried sushi in japan. He started liking it. So proud of you Mike.
Mike how much do you travel? Mike's Fridge: yes.

It’s 11:31pm in the UK and I was just literally saying to my partner ‘It’s been 2 days since a Mikey Chen video has been uploaded. Surely it’s time’, and yep! Going sleep hungry again 😋
I only just recently moved to a large city with a Mitsuwa grocery store, and though I've gone a dozen or so times so far, but still I'm intimidated by 99% of the store and never know what to get. I always end up getting the same five things. This video makes me really happy and feel confident about trying some new things!
