Gosh your videos are like warm hugs... Your comfortable demeanor and voice, the high quality footage, the natural scenery, your wife and friends and the lovely conversation... And ofcourse the hands on look at the fish and the resulting dish. I gravitate to you videos anytime I am feel stressed or anxious. Thankyou so much, I have no doubt there is A LOT of effort that goes into all this behind the scenes in terms of equipment and setting up cameras and flying to locations etc. The results are fantastic!

You are by far one of the best chefs I've seen on KZfaq hands down love outdoor chef life been watching and been a fan and a member before you had 10,000 subscribers by far the best KZfaq chef I work in a restaurant and I'm a chef myself and I bow down to you and gives you five stars this looks like an excellent meal

Alaska with Chef Taku Tour - can be a premium travel package that include everything where you learn to cook like Taku.

Man you’re making me want to take a road trip and catch some of that copious, glistening, savory herring bukkake. Glad you’re both living the fullest lives! Stay safe out there

This man is not just a chef, he is an artist, an artisan.

Proof of what a pro chef can do with a $5 knife. Taku's knife skills are next level!

Taku can make shoe leather look appetizing and tastes great. This man is a wizard chef. We are lucky to have him.

You always slam your beer on first sip. I love it

I thank them for inviting you two up to Alaska! Great couple who really care about the fish and wildlife! I could taste how delicious the food was through my phone 😂

OMG Taku uve done it again. I swear I can smell and tas this wonderful dish. Ty great video

i love seeing those 2 from Alaska. they seem like such cool people to be around.

I love your videos, compared to others that do catch and cook too. Anyone can do a catch and cook video; however, the way you explain how you catch, your methods of how to fish, your knowledge of foraging, and the way you cook is so intriguing and enticing. I'm learning from your videos, that's what makes me so interested. I'm learning how to cook through watching your videos! Keep it up, I want to learn more from you.

Glad you enjoyed your visit to Alaska. I am from the Aleutian Chain and have cousins in Sitka

I've been to many different places but Alaska will ALWAYS be my favorite. There's just something about the land, it's breathtaking and so peaceful and serene. Thank you for taking us along with you and I can't wait to see what your Alaskan summer trip brings!

Jocelyn’s long sleeve in the intro is so dope!!!!!

How Lovely that you are in Alaska. Fresh Herring & Herring Eggs. What a treat. Your friends Brooks and Cameo are delightful.

HERRING oyakodon! This is one of those dishes that really got me to bite the bullet and buy a REAL rice cooker. I could eat oyakodon breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I LOVE the method of dropping the panko fried protein (chicken in most cases of course!) on top of the first layer of egg, so you can bind everything together for ease of transferring to a bowl when you drizzle in the top layer of egg. This is a very, very interesting take on it, and I'll have to contemplate adding this to my list of potential experiments in cooking. Thank you for inspiring me!

This was one of the most interesting dishes of all time. I really enjoyed this episode.

I love the choice of music! Totally my vibe.

Sitka is stunning!

Just started watching your channel within the last month. I like your content. The fact that your a chef is awesome. I do the cooking at home and enjoying it. Thank you for the recipes and ideas for fish and wild game

Another great video Taku! You and Jocelyn look so happy together I always look forward to seeing your next adventure! :)

Once again....just killin it. Thumbs up!

This is your best dish by far. I love oyakodon.

Fabulous episode! Had me smiling all the way thru!!

I remember watching your first ever video when you had 30 subscribers, and now you´re here! I´m glad I was able to watch your journey from sushi chef to outdoor chef. Love your vids man! :) Love from Germany

literally the best KZfaq channel. Great vibes and amazing looking food. You deserve muchhh more than just 572k subs...

The best Outdoor Chef.

Cameo: "I don't know what those are" Taku: "Those are Birds" I literally fell out of my chair LMFAO!!!

Excellent photography and what a great spot!

Awesome episode Taku, that looks straight 🔥🔥🔥!! Stellar cinematography, that rainbow shot and the drone footage were on point Brotha, cheers Y’al 👊🏼😎🤙🏼

The oyakadon looks amazing. Herring is a hugely underrated fish. It is one of my favourite fish. In Britain, traditionally, the fillets were rolled in pin head oatmeal and fried with bacon. Delicious!

LOVE to hear that you will be using your platform to bring attention to my state! Well done sir!

This was a great vid guys , all the shots and drone footage 👍 and your lucky to have friends like that to pop up there and enjoy time on the water , y’all are liv’n the dream , have fun ,stay safe ✌️

So we are not going to talk about 21:55 when he moved a cast iron with his bare hands!

Thanks for another great video, Taku!

Best chef! Looks amazing 🙌🏼 catch and cook

Always leaving me hungry after watching one of these episodes

Sitka is where Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock went to in The Proposal!! I love ittt ^_^

I love hearing it's beautiful up there in Alaska but if you're doing a herring episode in San Francisco this year let me know thanks for all you do

Katsu donburi is my favorite dish! I will order it at a restaurant, but it's a lot of work to make! Just like your dish, Taku! Looked delish, nice job!

Yummy Goodness Taku !!! Mahalo for Sharing !!!

Breathtaking.

It would be awesome if you did more episodes in Alaska and British Columbia. These are great. It's fascinating to learn about herring spawn, and how different marine life is harvested. It's good to support sustainable seafood. Also, if it is possible, you should go to the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, where they have so many lakes, to try fishing there, and forage for wild edibles. Thanks so much for the excellent content. Cheers, Taku and Jocelyn! #TakuTuesday ✌️🎣

Taku can you do a northern pike catch and cook one day?I'd like to see how you would fillet that fish and what delicious meal you can create

This food looks amazing. Love the channel👍🏽

that was great fun I love canned herring

Thank you thank that dish looks so amazing!!!! Love it !!! Wish you u had that crab shirt in black with ur name on the sleeves!!! I'll be waiting for it lol!!!!

I watched a documentary about the Natives and how they use pine branches to be covered in eggs. It was so cool.

Whales are pretty cool though the eggs on the kelp looks good & always yummy cooking

I want to eat that too. That looked so good.

Great filming and edit on this one Taku!

i followed your katsu recipe from a previous video and it worked well... now something new to try. Son's been bugging me for this.

Sitka Alaska is Beautiful lived there 2 summer seasons and absolutely love the town and local Alaskans. I worked at the channel club restaurant not sure if the restaurant is still there. Enjoy your trip.

Taku tuesday yet again 🙏🏽

Good looking bowl!

More Alaska videos yeah!!🥳🤗

Awesome video Taku! :)

deermeatfordinner and Outdoor Chef Life collab would be nice

The drone shots mixed with all your cinematography was absolutely beautiful. You really did an amazing job filming out there. The Alaska vids are awesome. I’m exited to see how your summer trip goes as well!. As always your catch and cook looked delicious! So unique! I’m always learning new things from your vids. Amazing stuff Taku.

Love herring; it’s a staple in Sweden ❤️✌🏽

“Those are birds” lol

Jocelyn loves those sour beers, huh? Me too!

Killin it! 🔥

You know what you should have done Taku? Fried some of the eggs on the seaweed. It would make an amazing crispy snack! Maybe in a light batter to keep the eggs safe if worried

Love this id love to do some fishing and cooking with you here in the arctic.
