Cheap I thought 2k 😭😭😭

The cost for the boat tour is $700 AUD per person which is just a little bit less than $500 USD per person for those curious to the pricing. Pretty fair price for an 8 hour tour plus all that fresh sea food

It’s not fresh they have brought all that seafood on the boat before the left! 😂

I do prefer this kind of videos food review/ travel than just buffets

You have done our beautiful little island state proud. It was just so wonderful that you visited and showcased our amazing cuisine 😀

Truffle has been growing natural in Western Australia for many years. Manjimup Truffles are world renowned.

@@lmaree200886 Tasmania started planting perigolds in 1993 with Western Australia not far behind in 1997. There are varieties that are native but as far as the commercial industry goes, Tasmania was the pioneer in that sector.

There are around 300 native species of truffles in Australia. There are red, pink, yellow, white, purple and brown truffles here.

@jennysmith38 There are actually thousands of different truffles but majority are tasteless or inedible. I was mostly talking about farmed truffles not native species.

The scallop pies are the best in all Tassie at the Salamanca markets, I have tried just about every bakery in Tassie's scallop pies but the Salamanca ones were the best in my opinion.

Abalone these days are small compared to when I was a kid. When I was like13 or 14 in the mid 90s a truck broke down by the beach er were at and couldn't get fixed in time, so the driver started just giving away the Abalone in the back of the truck. They were probably 3 to 4 times that size. A few years later, Abalone got heavily regulated due to overfishing, but they never really bounced back to the same sizes they were.

Its probably because they take them long before they can get to those sizes

Eating scallops while listening to pirate shanties? I can't imagine many things better than that!

It's a great idea to recycle the oyster shells. They started doing that here in The Chesapeake Bay region. So far they have planted 11.5 Billion Oysters. As well as built or repopulated 83% of the older Oyster reefs. Been a fan of raw oysters since I was three or four.

Hey mike, thanks for showing off out great country. And also showing me a tour that is definitely a bucket list entry

Australia is always no 1 🇦🇺❤🇦🇺❤🇦🇺 awesomeness to see u here MIKEY 😉❤🤙

As a Tasmanian I am so excited to watch this !!

I'm glad you joined it Mike! Yes love this tour! We went in Winter and only two of us :) .... we got soo much food and drinks completely full! No dinner hahah

That abalone looks like something else 😂😂

Congratulations Australia 🇦🇺 👏. We are a secret 🙊 for awesome 👌 Well done Tasmania. 👏

YUM. All that seafood looked so delicious! I'd have eaten all of it and all but begged for more.

I love that you’re in Australia ..x❤❤

Next time you come, don't miss Launceston, Hobart's smaller neighbour to the north. Incredible food scene up here too. I'm really blessed to live here.

Wow! Those Abalone - we call them Perlemoen in South Africa - look delicious, and those are the sizes you are allowed to take out (if you have a permit) here! Just as I used to cook them - you have tenderize them beforehand, quite correct. The Crayfish - as we call them here - also look delish!! Used to clean out the legs and antennae as well : ) Best Seafood - Yummy!! Oysters were huge too - and the salmon looked mouth watering!!

Hey Mike. Been a fan of you for years keep up the content. When you’re in Auckland you should try these places 1. Green jades they have the best Chinese food 2. Lucky gs they have the best burgers and chicken in town. Hope you enjoy your time in NZ have you beautiful one 🙏

I always wanted to go to Australia. That food and boat excursion looked amazing!

Gonna say that toasties cheese looks like Greyere. It sounds like it the way you described it. Probably one of my favorite cheeses ever.

Tasmania is small but seafood is great. Love that market.. i had the sweetest strawberries ever there!! And it was huge too. Have fun at auckland! I find that city small compare to melb/sydney. And food aint cheap either.

Mike in my home state!!!! glad you enjoyed your time here mate!!!!

I would definitely book that tour, everything looked so delicious. The crew made it well worth it. I've always wanted to go down under and you made me want it even more. Stay safe and enjoy your days,from your biggest fan from Arkansas ❤😊👍🏻

Everything looks really good Mike 🤙🏽

Mike, you make all the places you go very interesting to travel to. I appreciate that! 😁

Hope you had a great time in our country Australia! Visit again soon!

That shows how much lobster meat is normally wasted 😫

Great to see you in Tassie! Sad I didn’t bump into you! If you are ever in South Australia you MUST visit the central markets on a Friday night!

Mike, thank you so much for sharing the beautiful scenery from the coastline of Tasmania!

Welcome to Tasmania. Don’t forget us here in the North west. More to Tasmania than Hobart and Launceston. Don’t forget the Cape Grim Beef. Much tastier than seafood.

It's nice seeing all the Aussie stuff on the channel the past two days, hopefully you can get to Queensland at some point XD

Loving this Aussie series so far!

Fantastic video...all the seafood looked so delicious...thx for sharing your experience in Tasmania, Australia 😊🤗❤

I have never tasted ANY of that seafood. As a child I was told I was allergic to shellfish, after having a blood test done. But I have been watching seafood videos for years now and lobster and crab is some of the main ones I would love to try one day. Especially in a local area like this. But you, Mike, by far show and explain seafood so well! I love your channel!

I hope you never come across an Australian spider during your trip.😂

Well to be fair, this is essentially a food review channel and umami is basically a way to describe a dish's savoriness(especially dishes with meat and/or mushrooms) and since most of the foods he tries/reviews is savory, it's almost impossible for him to describe a whole 20-30min video worth of different foods/meals/dishes without using the word "umami" ‼️🤷🏾‍♂️🤣🤣🤣🤦🏾‍♂️😭😭💀💯...

Those scallops sticks are sooo good. I had two last time I was there! Love tassie seafood, best oysters in the world IMO

Yaaaaay I'm so glad you branched out closer to us 🤍🤍 hope you come to nz next x

ey it's my home ! Best seafood, and alchohol. cleanest air and water in the world. I worked at salamanca in the 90's and early 00's - so much different ! My house is in view at 7:02 :D

Who's counting every time he says "sweet"? 😂😂😂😂😂

Loved this👍🏽

What an amazing experience for you!

Great video , only state of Australia I haven’t visited yet, glad your enjoying your Aussie adventures:) long time subscriber here

Yes! You're heading to Auckland ❤! I loved the food there, so I can't wait to see your food trip there. The lobster looked amazing & holy cow the abalone was gigantic! The tour and food was pricey but ya only live once. 😊

Tasmania is so underrated

Should have checked out the wallaby burrito over at the markets too!

Burning hot as well!!! Proceeds to take a huge bite 😆😁

If you are going to be in Adelaide, let me know happy to show you around mike. Love the videos, keep up the great work 👌

Nice seeing you in the state i live all around the island has great food

I've done that same seafood boat tour with my husband, and totally was worth it. I have no idea how you had room before and after for other food though.

Wow. Those bags under your eyes!! I hope you managed to get some proper rest after this trip mate.

I have finally out Mike Chened Mike Chen. We spent the day in Tasmania then flew to an island off the coast of Taz. You could walk to the beach and dive in (wet suit required). With a friend who is local we harvested every sea creature in this video plus mussels and huge clams. On the way in we shot a wallaby. All was prepared by my friend and his mates on a seven mile long white beach on which we were the only ones The only food that i didn't care for was Mutton Bird which is pulled from the crags of the ricky shoreline. .

the seafood tour costs 700 dollars though, wow

My home state ❤ I haven't been to Salamanca Market in a long time tho

Greetings from Redondo Beach 🇺🇸. The meat in skewers looks good. Lobsters and abalones looks so fresh and delicious, too. Nice video.

I am from south africa and we have massive abalone . But it's illegal to take them from the wild any size , as it takes almost 80 years for the abalone to grow the size of your palm. Since it's a delicacy in Asia, it's been poached to death and exported . I think i need to visit Australia for some abalone
