And here I am enjoying my instant ramen with extra soup(water) 🥲
Can’t believe it’s been five years ago today when Mike first tried this ichiran and was blown away……good memories😊
Do you know which video it was? Can't find it.
@@Guruditt its near the top of his most popular videos😊
@@blackmantis3130 wrong video
man travels and eats, makes money and writes off everything as business expenses. Living the life
@@Gurudittit's in strictly dumpling
I went to Tokyo for the first time last November, and I ate Ichiran every single day I was there. Even went to the same location Mike went to in Shinjuku! Seriously the best ramen I've ever had and I brought their instant one back home and I make it every so often when I miss it. It gets you like 95% of the way there!
instant not good
imagine going to america and eatting mcdonalds everyday Lol
Next time try to branch out. There are so many other better places! Many were right next to you at that Shinjuku location. Love the enthusiasm, though!
@@MeowjinBoobeen to 10 or so ramen places across Tokyo and Kyoto, even one Michelin star joint, ichiran holds its own. If you think it’s McDonald’s quality just because it’s a chain, shows you haven’t been to many ramen places across Japan to know the difference.
you seriously miss out just eating at any random mom and pops ramen shop that tastes better than ichiran
I know he is glad to be back at his favorite Ramen restaurant. Like a kid on Christmas Day.
He looks like one
This Mike Chen youtube feature of Best Ramen Chains in Japan is absorbing to view. The reference to the various ingredients of the ramen he tries also helps to have a viewer easily imagine vicariously some of the reasons why some of the ramen dishes are selected.
Whoever started putting synthwave music in the background... I love you.
As an introvert, I really appreciate that places like Ichiran exist 😊
Yeah you probably won't find many places like these in Calgary. Lots of BBQ grill places. Not as dense a population here either but it has condo places, many. Has an ok LRT system and bus network you can uber etc. Lots restaurants.
I love the vibe of this place, looks nice.
Love your videos! They offer me such a peaceful experience
The first slurp at the second spot…”I felt that” 7:00 🤤 that looked so bomb!
I even feel nostalgia and I've never even been, I live through you Mike!!
Awesome episode thankyou 👏
I found mikey video when I was searching for ramen videos.
So this is a very nostalgic one.
I was waiting for this video for years 😭 ❤❤❤
Mike being back at Inchiran brings back so many memories ❤️
I go back and watch the OG Ichiran videos all the time! Love the update, Mike! :D
Love the setup of the 1st one!
These are my fav videos from you. Cannot get enough of you eating these types of noodles.
@@divinekpl1 No
I love ramen videos. Always make me crave them 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Both of them looked delicious!!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩
Awesome job Mikey
Tomita looks amazing, Im definitely putting it on my list!
Happy New Year Mike
I was wondering if Mikey was going to visit Ichiran ramen and of course he did, thank you~ Definitely gonna try both of them next time I visit Japan, I hope that day comes soon!
Hey Mikey great channel!! You’re a true artist the way you film the food you’re eating and your entire experience. Thanks 🥢
The broth is what I love the best about ramen just so flavorful
Can't not have my mouth watering for this.
Happy Lunar New Year to you and your family!
It all looks so good. You are so lucky
Funny story, I was out for lunch today at a sushi place near me in Brisbane, Australia. They actually had this video streaming on some of their tv's so I had to come and watch the end
love your videos
Loved the video. Loved the music at
4:32
Mike was slurping to the beat!🤣🤣
Yum the ramen looks so yummy ❤ thanks for a great video Mikey ..x
Finally a new ichiran video from Mike
Okay but that dipping noodle + sauce combo though?? I've been appetite-less for days and now i'm hungry. That's how good it looks through the screen!
Tomita is crazy good. You can go to the second location in the Kitte building basement near Tokyo Station if you don’t want to wait in the crazy line at the home shop.
Is it just me or is this his like 5th video on Ichiran lol
I think this is his 2nd Ichiran vs ippudo video too (3rd if you count the NY one)
I used to like watching him but his videos are very repetitive
most def is all his content are the same he never tries something new. ( Buffett, ramen, expensive place, hot pop, kbbq, 7/11)
That tsukemen perfection🤤
Yes!!!! Yes!!!!! MEGA AWESOMENESS YES!!!!!
Everything you’ve ordered in this video I am doing the same when I get there in July.
(Il give you credit in my video as a thank you). ❤
How do I always manage to watch your videos while I'm hungry?
Will probably eat at Ichiran the moment we touch down at Osaka later this year. Cannot wait!
If you are ever in Sapporo a must try is Ebisoba Ichigen. Amazing shrimp broth ramen.
I appreciate Mikey for being the Ichiran champion that he is. I've met a lot of people who say there's tons of better ramen places and I know a lot of locals even scoff at it, but I have yet to find a better bowl of ramen on the planet. The way the first sip of broth smacks you in the mouth is like no other. Life changing ramen.
Ya don't listen to the ramen snobs. They just want to show off.
Ok
totally
Everyone has different taste and preference there is sooo many local’s who love ichiran just as much as mikey just look at these videos almost all patreon’s are locals not tourist’s so ichiran can’t be that bad as many say it is. I would sell my kidney to get there, anyone byuing?
I totally agree with you! Ive been to Tokyo many times, and I love many ramen shops there, but ichiran is my number 1! I introduced my husband to ichiran when I took him to Tokyo for the first time, and he loved it so much he literally has dreams about it lmao 😂 we’re finally going back soon, so we can get our ichiran cravings satisfied. Once you have ichiran, life is changed forever. I think the people who scoff at it are the type of people who need to feel “cool”. I’ve definitely heard lots of people talk like that about it too lol.
That first bowl of ramen.. god, it looked so good... i was about to drool... Thanks for the video, Mike.
I literally went to Ichiran everyday when I was there for 2 weeks
@@Duhtonyledon’t blame u. I love ichiran in the states so I can imagine it’s 100x better in Japan
I've heard that often, ichiran is bomb AF when you're visiting..and it is, but once you live there, there's so many amazing whole on the wall type places.
The ramen looks even tastier than usual!
Ramen videos are the bomb.
Magic Ramen window is already a classic for Mike
you really should come to Portugal, i think you'll love the food here.
love the content
love you mike
Hey Mike.. The Raman looks delicious.. Enjoy Japan.. I would.. ☺️🐞❤️
I love watching him eat that ichican ramen. I want to go to Japan just to try it!
Worth the trip just for that
Go to New York City
@@Nick-wp8qynot the same
@@Nick-wp8qy I’ve had both, and the one in Japan is superior by far
Ichiran is Japan’s MacDonalds
Ichiran will change your life! Just discovered it after moving here and my God it’s worth the hype. Btw there’s one in NYC😊
You guys should try ichiran. Best tonkotsu ramen ive eaten
Amazing looking ramens! Your videos are always mouthwatering!
I want to learn to cook this, look so delicious
Check out Motoki ramen academy. He does a copy cat recipe.
Need one of these in St. Louis!
There is an ichiran in new york but apparently it's nowhere near as good as the japanese counterpart and yet costs twice as much
I just came to see that bowl of ichiran ramen once again
Wow... l need that in my life.
Eating cup stir fry noodles now and picked up the phone just in time for a noodle video thanks
I always like Mike Chen's Ichiran post T_T
fun fact, u can actually open the side panel of ur cube . so if u come as couple or wf friends u can open it and easier to talk haha (the ichiran one), but seeing al couple behind didnt open it, either they change it since pandemic orrrr its not in every shop thing
Man this is so different than the Mr.Noodles I just had!
Try Kikanbo! I think it trumps all other ramen shops at least in Tokyo 😊
I like both ramens.
Tummy making noise just watching...yum...
Ramen is so delicious!
Tomita Ramen is really a ramen heaven ❤
Noodle soup makes the world go around
I am so envious as I am sitting here on break eating my sad chicken salad. 😢😢😢😢
How does a spicy 10 Ichiran ramen compare to Shin Black or Samyang Buldak ramyun in terms of spiciness?
I was surprised when I went to the Haneda airport recently and they're selling boxes of Ichiran ramen you can take home with you in the airport past security! There were only three boxes left so it must be very popular as a souvenir.
Don't bother, the instant soup taste totally different from what you get from the shop.
@jerrang4172 true, it's just like slightly fancier instant ramen
@@jenuy1364 I would have to disagree. It's not 100%, but it's at 90% of the way there. Does the trick when you're craving it!
@kamronseeram3488 how I wish I had the same standards as you 😅
They sell it on Amazon with Prime Delivery and it's sold in Japanese markets in the States
I like how he didn't even put Tomita's on title because there's no "VS" for Tomita's, he's on the league of his own
Amazing
Making me HUNGRY Mike!!👀🔥
Nice food vlog Jackie Chan😊
MIKE, I just watched you on.....tubi YOU WRRE GREAT! I DIDNT KNOW!
What.. ?!? 10x spiciness that was something else 😮 1:03
Even though I have never tasted ramen in my whole life, I am now very eager to try ramen noodles..
You should come to Maine sometime, try all our local seafood places, a great Ramen place named Pai Men Miyaki which is out of this world good and lots of excellent bakeries and Chinese restaurants.
Thanks for the video :) At what time did you go to Ichiran? I see that there was no line. We are going in April to the Shinjuku one and would like to go at the same time you went to avoid long wait. Thanks!
‼️‼️‼️Foood is 🔥 🔥🔥🔥🔥
mikey, u gotta take one slurp man, always cutting it half way HAHA
You should try Tatsunoya. They're from Kurume, but there are two locations in Tokyo, hopefully they're as good. Better than Ippudo IMHO, where I've had inconsistent experiences (although at their best, they were great).
He loves his noodles!
Hey Mike. Love the vid! I was wondering if you return to the Philippines, maybe do a ramen tour? The ramen scene is growing and would love yo hear your thoughts
Damn bro making me hungry here! The Kaedama is well deserved! slurp!
My goodness! You came to Ippudo really close to my house. It takes about 10 mins to get there on foot. I wanted to see you.
Have you tried Kinryu Ramen or Zendouya Ramen? Both are quite different but also really nice (and open 24hrs in Osaka)
awesome video! A lot of people hate on ramen chains but there is a reason they were able to expand so much. We still like both chains and mom and pop restaurants. We reviewed a few on our channel.
I agree… though they are a chain they are TOP of their game in quality
Boy be murdering them noodles
Can you review the take home ramen kit, and compare it to the restaurant
there are lots of delicious ramen here in japan not only ippudo and ichiran
Don’t let the secret out! I love going to the other places with no other tourists but me there! So much quieter too! Lol j/k I hope everyone can get to experience the full breadth of Japanese ramen other than just chain Tonkotsu restaurants!
@@binhnham2512 bruh please you are one of those gaijin who think "less people the better" you probably don't know what good ramen even is, stop being pretentious.
they can feed you a dish water broth and you would say it's perfect just because it's "ranked" no.1
7 x we've graciously ate amoung 1 of the most popular food 😋 ever
I am a vegetarian now..but I like to see his expressions when he enjoys the ramen.
We need more ramen places here. I have to drive over an hour away for good ramen. 😔
Where you been Mikey? My stomach has been growling for a new video.😋😋♥
Definitely getting your bang for the dollar! Over where I am at its $11.95 and up for a bowl
I’ve been to that exact Ichiran location in Kabukicho.
I’m actually heading there now for breakfast
Can you do a video where u talk about like ur best of best. Best ramen. Best Korean bbq. Best dumpling. And i mean like best ever for you top one no competition????
