Andrew and omurice is like mortal enemy and mortal friend at the same time

Enemies to lovers au, Andrew and omurice

omurice is the ultimate anti-hero

[@katekramer7679]

Andrew: *attempts the pan flip technique, does it flawlessly several times* Also Andrew: *gets cocky and decides to do it again even though it's now unnecessary, spills a bunch of rice on the stove* This is such a mood

[@the1337fleet]

I feel like he did it on purpose to get rice scattered around because he did it too well the first time

[@LiaaaaaaaaAAAAAHH]

I would totally watch a worth-it anime lol. Imagine the drama with the transition to independence and all the interesting guests and chefs they’ve met over the years 😂

[@CHEFPKR]

I definitely failed making this so many times. Chef Motokichi has that magic touch that is hard to translate through video tutorials, as scene by my many sacrificed eggs.

[@nevanV12]

Ayy ChefPK you're here! You may not be good at making the omelet but that's okay! You're great at doing other things.

[@IceQueen975]

It muscle memory. Anyone with a skill does it so much for so long, things become muscle memory, little twitches and adjustments they do subconsciously so they themselves can't explain it.

[@naomimegacita5824]

Why are you everywhere?

[@keenmans]

Sounds like you definitely need a motokichi pan and spatula 😂

[@rogerrabbit8331]

@@IceQueen975 You are certainly right that it is muscle memory, but the amount of skill that it takes to get to the point that the perfect way is in your muscle memory is vast.

[@chrischeng5123]

Motokichi tossing the omelet from the pan onto the plate and it bursting on its own over the rice is truly fascinating.

[@LlewsArt]

I actually rewind that scene to make sure I saw that right xD SO impressive and cool.

[@erasoljohnkat2965]

homie is a God in the kitchen. I love that man

[@ledoi5961]

Yes, it’s amazing and truly astonishing that he does this quite regularly. Though that also makes me question, did he ever fail that move 🤣🤣🤣

[@Smartyshorts1]

11:01 for those curious. So smooth

„For convenience I am going to make a double portion“ yea, I always tell myself the same thing

Yeah totally, I do the same, "for convenience"

[@explosivepotatos]

Glad I’m not the only one that makes 50 chicken nuggets and say “It’s for the family”

[@anhnhvn]

It's actually a good idea. In case he messes up, he has another try, instead of having to fry the rice again.

[@lauralafreniere3891]

This might be the best story arc on KZbin

[@ThydaCookingTV]

Best

[@eltonjohntubola3212]

Andrew is radiatig so much Dad energy with his mustache, I won't be surprised if he has a fanny pack and is wearing 6 pocket shorts and Crocs.

[@radharamaswamy3971]

I agree.

[@hybridce99]

I was getting more of a "70's p0rn" vibe from that stache. But it was likely filmed during quarantine, so I'll give him a pass.

Chef Motokichi's pan design and entire merch branding is just an extension of his overall energy. Absolutely can believe that his general advise is "Enjoy cooking." He sounds exactly like the type of man.

Chef Motokichi is truly such a blessing. It's just one guy, with lots of passion and he's just enhanced these videos like crazy. He wasn't even in this one and I still fondly remembered those past moments.

[@RenzDFNetwork]

It has taken a few years...but my God Andrew I think you’ve done it

[@ThydaCookingTV]

Yes 👍

[@Mikopotato95]

Every time I see Chef Motokichi I can't help but smile so hard my cheeks hurt.

Yeah I feel the same. He is just the happiest man you'll ever meet

[@AryakiM]

This is like kill bill stretched over four years and Chef Motokichi's pan is Andrew's Hanzo sword.

[@krisanthonysilveira8244]

I think Andrew is constantly thinking about Omurice, It never leaves him. Chef Motos infectious ease of making it has seemed to have him in a trance !!

[@thoughtsofaleo2916]

Love that this was lowkey an ad for Chef Motokichi - dude totally deserves it! It’s also just so nice to see such a satisfying conclusion to the omurice saga!

[@f.c.4549]

11:04 he really just flipped the omelette from the pan onto the top of the rice on a plate

[@0xEden.]

that's freaking skill right there

[@MephisK]

Honestly, just seeing Chef Motokichi's expression when he cooks, even if it *might* be "for the camera" you can really tell he loves his craft, and is just having fun showing off for everyone.

[@winnieblews]

How glad are we all that on the one faithful day that keith couldnt make it for Pizza, Steven picked Andrew. And Andrew reluctantly said yes. (Memory is foggy)

[@TheNinnyfee]

To think that Chef Motokichi does this every day with a regular pan so many times, and it comes out perfect every time...What a master of his craft. You did a great job to honor him by trying until you get this result, well done!

[@Jiminie53421]

I think we would all love to meet chief Motokichi one day, he just seems like the best person ever and omu-chan is so cute!!

[@ahma4134]

I don’t know but there’s something about him that makes me so relaxed

[@hellfish2309]

I completely expect Motokichi to enter the frame at the end, “that was good, Andrew” Andrew: “T-Thank you... how did you get here?”

[@winchester_deanna7539]

To be honest, The fact that Chef Motokichi has his own brand of kitchen pan is more fascinating than him being with Mrs. Obama on a Netflix show...

I’m learning to cook a wider variety of foods and I’ve learned that what Chef Motokichi said is absolutely right, just enjoying the process of cooking makes the food turn out better

[@hako_242]

Seeing Andrew eating eggs with steamed rice n soy sauce reminds me of how much I grew up eating that. I only eat it when there's nothing much to cook but u can never go wrong with eggs n rice.

[@ancientsound]

watching Andrew's skills improve over the years is like *mind blown*

[@maksymkyryliuk8898]

I am so happy for Andrew. He lost so many battles with omurice but won the war 😌

Crazy to see how much Andrews cooking skills have improved over the years

Okay, that pan is going straight to my cart.

[@badmotherfarker123]

Andrew's got really good classical picks in the background! First two are Francisco Tarrega's Estudio Brillante and JS Bach Keyboard Partita No. 1 in B flat Major BWV 825 (7th movement Gigue) arranged for guitar (sounds like 2 guitars but could be a solo guitar arrangement)

[@ngerih17173]

"Enjoy cooking".. okay I can see his passion enough. He is sure a great man

Chef motokichi is god tier human being lol

Fisherman and sinner are the same word in French... take what you want from that but I just had to let it be known

[@laurenbowlby4531]

The amount of times things are literally thrown to the side in this video is... very pleasing. I was not expecting that to be a tendency of a man with this much calm energy and I love it

[@ivydaphne7483]

Always knew Andrew would nail this. Great job! Seeing videos like these gives me encouragement to cook more often at home

[@mauricebao4302]

Honestly man.. that was a really solid French omelette. You nailed this dish Andrew.

I acquired the pan about the same time you did! I have done 2 omurice attempts now. I def have the rice down. I need to get some shumeji and edamame. I was substituting white buttons and enoki for fun. I did a more traditional ketchup version. Nice work! you're def getting better! Your smiles are definitely the smiles that Motokichi wants the world to have while cooking these dishes successfully. WELL DONE! Motokichi is such a grand human.

[@padminiarts]

Compared to a famous chef who has cooked the same dish for years, Andrew did wonderfully in just few tries. Also I am tempted to buy that pan!

Huge love to chefs who genuinely try to teach and help young aspiring amateurs. So tired of the "secret recipe, behind closed doors, tight lip" style that seems to dominate some groups of chefs. I understand there is a level of professional training and years of skill for some of this stuff, but Im glad people like Chef Motokichi actively try to teach and aid people and show them they're capable of something delicious with a little bit of help.
