Cooking Together With The Godfather Of Cooking Shows, Chef Martin Yan, Yan Can Cook!

I am so honored to have meet my childhood favorite chef once again; from the time I was growing up in Japan, watching him on TV and now making him a couple of dishes live for my channel, something I could never imagine happening. His enthusiasm, knowledge and humbleness is what makes him the Godfather of cooking shows, way before there was the Food Network or Travel Channel.

Before all of the Ramsays and Bourdains roamed the earth, there was Yan Can Cook. Long Live Martin!

[@keno756]

"If Yan can cook, you can too!"

[@John-zf2ph]

I tthink you need to have a show with Hiro.

[@ptg01]

No drama ! Refreshing !

[@stefanr.3495]

Yeah, and Jamie Olive-Oil...

[@realretrorelapse]

It surprises me how many people I speak with who don't know who Martin Yan is or ever heard of Yan Can Cook. I used to watch him on public television as a child with my brother. We didn't really care about cooking or anything but his charisma and humor kept us watching.

[@shindukess]

Almost 30 years since I watched his shows as a kid and he still has the same energy and personality. I wish I had half of his energy, passion and enthusiasm.

[@kevintam1010]

😂same here, and I am 36 now

[@bobrobmarc.-.966]

Get some botox and a young wife 😂

[@KINDERGARTEN-COP]

I watched him when I was a child. Im 36 too!!! I'm sure he is one of the reasons why I love cooking at home

[@bluetextonwhitebg]

i'm so happy to see martin yan showing up more often again. i saw him guest judge masterchef and geeked out. for those who don't know, he was a pretty big deal in the 80's and 90's, but gave up his fame to spend more time with his family. such an awesome guy. he's got a great sense of humor too! 😁

[@DiariesofaMasterSushiChef]

yes...we will be doing more and plan to travel to asia next year...he is the nicest person and is so smart and so full of knowledge...he started almost 40 years ago...before anyone else was popular...and yes so funny too!

[@robd1329]

He looks like a fun guy! I have no idea who he is

[@phyllisnavarijo6592]

I love him been watching since I was little as wel

[@luminatrixfanfiction]

@@DiariesofaMasterSushiChef It would be such a honor to sample both Martin Yan's and your own dishes. I can only dream... Greetings from Australia.

[@udllord]

Since you're planning to visit Asia next year I hope you can come visit my country (Singapore) best place for food too

[@roadkillraker]

Hearing the rhythm while he cuts brings back memories and makes me smile.

[@joshschneider9766]

Like all these years never happened!

[@ItsGlynda]

Watching Chef Yan every week with my grandma is one of my favorite childhood memories. I can still hear her voice in my head saying “If Yan can cook, so can you!” along with him. Thank you for featuring this wonderful man.

[@joshschneider9766]

I love how appreciative of other chefs Martin has always been. That Chinese cleaver tap tap tapping away melted decades off my life. I just turned 39 Sunday and this is the best birthday gift ever. Just can't say enough good things about both of you. May the journey always be fruitful!

[@ctnguyen54]

The OG “Yan Can Cook!” Brings back so many memories watching him with my mom.

[@AesculusPavia]

I grew up watching The Godfather, Chef Martin Yan, and never missed his show Yan Can Cook! It's great seeing him again, and brings back so many memories!

[@jschang29]

Martin Yan is iconic in my life. As a kid I watched his show all the time. I learned how to cook so many different dishes from this guy. Him and hiroyuki two of my favorite chefs ever. I love how they have such different attitudes lol. Hiro is quiet reserved and respectful and martin is rambunctious and talkative and full of energy.

[@ktheng9485]

Martin stole the show 💯!! Well then again, he had over 30 years of experiences cooking in front of TV so that just come natural. Great episode!! Hope to see more guest chef in future videos

[@lorenzvalle214]

Chef Martin Yan And His Friend Chef Han Should Visit Chef Hiro In Miami

[@Jaortega805]

Martin yan is the master … I remember watching his show “yan can cook” as a boy…great video !!

[@krisnadiimam1509]

me as well... :D

[@joshschneider9766]

Me too!

[@weworks7811]

When Martin would burn himself with the steamer “Ooh Hawt” 😆🤣

[@mamamememoo]

How has Chef Martin Yan not aged one bit??? That chopping rhythm is unforgettable. If Yan can cook, so can you!

[@reeze1895]

Chef Yan came on with straight up big D energy 😂 the way he cut that bell pepper from the very start masterfully like it was nothing lmao

[@JDere]

Two great chefs. My cousins and I were touring Vietnam and was lucky enough to met up with Martin Yan while he was filming his Vietnamese food series. He is a superstar in Vietnam. Marin is good friend to my Wong cousins in Mandeville, Louisiana, whom are legendary chefs in LA. I was fortunate to meet up with Marin Yan again twice when he was doing cooking classes here in San Antonio, TX with our local supermarket chain HEB. You can learn a lot from just watching him. They don't make them like him anymore.

[@aromachocolates]

LOVE seeing Martin Yan again. Loved watching him as a kid. Still love watching him. He's so energetic and exciting. He makes cooking interesting and fun! Great combination with Hiro and Martin. Thanks for doing this video!

[@KayKrazie]

So much memories are flooding back. I remember watching this with my family on the weekend. It was so peaceful and I felt so love and had so much fun. Now my siblings are not really in my life anymore. I cherish all those memories. I wish I can go back and sit down in front of our TV and experience it again.

[@chuenyeelau]

Loved it and so happy to see the union of Chinese and Japanese cooking with respect and gratitude. Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦

[@redbeanmochi]

It's amazing to see Martin Yan still so energetic after all these years! This was a great collaboration with the two chefs!

[@Silencers]

I'm so happy for Hiro. I can't imagine how hype it must feel to be praise by THE martin yan

[@AznPhatty]

Seriously, for 30 years Martin Yan is the same guy. He is true to himself and that is why we love him. Felt like I was watching his cooking show again. Look at that...Look at this 😆

[@Domzdream]

I appreciated these two maser chefs comparing their skills. Both are so good at what they do and how they present. *Such an honour.*

[@beniij1]

So glad to see two icons together!

[@DiariesofaMasterSushiChef]

I am learning from him...he is the GOAT...

[@cheffy101]

Martin Yan is my absolute favorite chef next to Julia Child. Ive been watching him since his early days. “If Yan can cook, so can you” :)

[@thebigoilkanlarry]

Martin Yan is still the chef OG. Watching him cut is sublime.

[@annaknepper9478]

Watching the two of you together I had tears in my eyes. Two masters together that admire each other’s work. It’s inspiring. The words I want to express about how much I love watching you both is escaping me right now. I wish I could give this video million likes.

[@lukemurray9051]

I cried too

[@leehungchun9368]

Martin Yan! Absolute legend! So awesome to see him. His enthusiasm was always wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing, Hiro!!

[@jjdias74]

Martin Yan is the best, his excitement makes every show better.

[@frankmagana8237]

This is my favorite episode ever!!! The years of skill I saw today was amazing. The food looked so beautiful. Great job!

[@CufflinksAndChuckles]

Chef Yan is so humble. He's quick to compliment Chef Hiro's skills and openly asks him for the homemade recipe for teriyaki sauce. I work with a lot of great chefs and the best leaders in a kitchen are very quick to ask what younger chefs are doing. Also, as a chef, it's really hard to talk while cooking! Haha, most of my brain cells are working on what the next 5 steps are. Edit: But I also realize how humble chef Hiro is!

[@jamesmula4247]

There’s so much nostalgia hearing chef yan talk and chop. Reminds me so much of my grandparents house. Thanks chef Hiro for bringing him on your show.

[@shirpie]

This is one of your best episodes, with the legendary Chef Yan.

[@dwaynewladyka577]

I remember watching Martin Yan, on TV, long ago. This is an awesome collaboration. I hope you and your cameraman, Charles, have a good afternoon and a great week. Cheers, Chef Hiro!

[@ratlips4363]

I was once a camera man on the Iron Chef contest in Modesto California. Chef Martin was one of the judges. When we approached him after the event to explain that we (my brother and I) were raised watching him on TV. He was so accommodating that I have a photo of my brother and Chef Martin on the stage. He even made suggestions as to lighting for the best shot. He is truly a pro!

[@BreakerBreaker1320]

Martin Yan was as much a part of my childhood as hot wheels. Fun to watch him cook and make it a fun and entertaining experience where it can often feel like work with hungry children. This was a great experience for sure with much respect.

[@islndaze]

Man I use to love watching Yan can Cook when i was a kid! Damn he aged well and still a master cook! Amazing to watch this chefs make food for one another and just watching them enjoy each dish is priceless!

[@Hmfirestormz]

i also remember watching his infomercials as a kid i was so mesmerized by his skills. So cool to see him again. blast from the past!

[@islndaze]

@@Hmfirestormz right?! I love it!

[@tamalpias]

I grew up watching Martin Yan, he has the best catch phrase of any chef out there, “if yan can cook, so can you!” Love Martin Yan. Well now I love Hiro too but what a great to watch my 2 favorite chef in a show together. Straight unexpected!

[@lionlight777]

I grew up with Yan Can.. San Francisco.. Thanks for the memories

[@flipstyle1983]

Yan can cook was one of my favorite shows when food network was still showing cooking shows. Great to see him still cooking

[@matthewrodriguez3128]

Man I use to watch that guy when I was a kid. Love his shows

[@danwu4689]

Two legends together in the kitchen. This is amazing to see and witness. Thank you for sharing the video. Great stuff!

[@sleepyoldtiger372]

It’s beautiful to watch these two interact and share their dishes!!! I’m a huge fan of Hiro - he’s the first (and only) sushi chef I started following on KZbin! Also didn’t know Yan is in California! He was the first Asian chef I ever saw on TV! I’m a huge fan of his so I’m so glad to see him and he looks so healthy!

[@SpaCitySwingers]

What a Treat! Two of my Favorite chefs together! Thank you for sharing your journeys with us Hiro!

[@krisnadiimam1509]

Chef Yan is the inspiration for me to start cooking for myself n fam... back then i didnt even understand english, and watchih his show with dictionary in hand. The tag line "If yan can cook, so can you" still sticks around

[@mommadee6010]

I LOVE YAN CAN COOK!!! I would watch his show as well I love his personality he is a legend and I love the way he interacts with the viewers makes me so happy to see you two together it made me tear up! Thank you chef YAN!! and chef hero is amazing too he has opened my eyes to being able to eat my favorite cuisine Japanese thank you chef hero

[@anavelilla4483]

Thank you for collaborating with Martin Yan we missed him here in Vancouver he is really famous before and we loved his style and humor just like I like the way you make delicious foods.Good luck to both of you.

[@billreed8528]

So much respect, kindness and pride in what each Chef brings to this table....amazing!

[@KCC1956]

We had a meal in martin yan's restaurant in san Francisco It was unbelievable never had a meal like it since And martin being the true gentleman that he is came over to our table and sat down and chatted with us for a while What a guy

[@khoosengkuang3575]

Love this 2 legendary. Their skill impressive . Should have more this kind of cooperation. Thank for shared.

[@GrillWasabi]

I love how Yan is schooling Hero by showing him how to cut bell peppers. He referenced he is cutting it like Hero cutting the tuna lol. Yan you're the man.

[@jamescurry9164]

You cannot know how happy this made me. KZbin randomly offered this up and with it many memories of watching Yan Can Cook with my mother. Mom and I did an entire 4th of July meal, which double for our birthday meals every year, inspired by Martin Yan. Thanks so very much!

[@bjsailo]

Two of my favorite chefs. It's a treat to watch them.

[@ernestkj]

Damn!!! No way!!! He's the legend before all the masterchef series, prob the most famous Chinese dude all American knew of!

[@robd1329]

Who?? I only know the guy who says 'Good Afternoon'!

[@Levup_XP_Outdoors]

[@MT-lo7dt]

Oh I wish I could go back to the time to watch “Yan can cook “.....lots of memories.... and it’s good to see both of these master chefs

[@jujubi1050]

Chef Martin is always so entertaining! He hasn't changed a bit! Loved this!

[@justgonnasendit9074]

This whole video feels like I'm watching a father and son showing each other what they have learned over the years. Chef Martin Yan has an amazing way of describing everything. Awesome video as always!!

[@MY-rl8hu]

Grew up watch Martin Yan on PBS as a kid. He was the first celebrity chef before there was such thing for me. Great memories..

[@KitHLeung]

So glad to see Chief Yan. I watched his show started from the first few years when I came North America. So happy to see him again.

[@bonamy25]

I met Yan.. He was so nice, I was celebrity shocked.. I watched him on TV when I was a late teen, early young 20’s.

[@christiannavarro2231]

Martin Yan is the man. A chef's chef. His knife skills are amazing. He was born to be in front of a camera. He's talking and cooking 100 MPH without a script! And he just can't stop teaching. So entertaining and just amazing.

[@victore8342]

Martin Yan is one of the most charismatic chefs I've ever seen. His show, Yan Can Cook, gave me a deep appreciation for Chinese culture and Asian food in general. What a great collab!
