[@alhutch1798]

[@neilsingh7]

Please give this guy his own show 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@lohengrinzadieclausell7606]

Thank you for the video, please continue with the excellent work. I usually don't like these "Chef's Night Out" Videos because IMHO most of the chefs carry on as elitist. But, Takahashi San is so down to earth and laid back, it really was a pleasure to watch. I would love to see more videos of Takahashi San please and thank you. Happy Birthday Takahashi San!

[@fajarsetiawan8665]

Did they really understand when Yoya spoke Japanese ??

[@WingRocka]

Is it just me, or Yoya sounds a little bit out of breath when compared to his last appearance in Munchies? Nevertheless, I still love him. One of the best chefs I’ve known.

[@amosapriyanto4376]

Everything seems normal until that 4:45 moment
