ball before sweet but not too sweet creamy but not too heavy we got we got to do the most chinat tow flavors this is called Taiwanese black sugar we're here to celebrate second generation shop owners here in Chinatown got Taste of super oo warms me up sh the soup give me two chicken they serve Northern style Shoei that's hella good I feel so K-pop right now I got to try these donuts with smalla all right don't you wish there was an upto-date guide of all the newest cheap beats in Chinatown New York oh wait yeah that's what this whole series is listen nobody covers Chinatown as extensively as us we're at volume 21 and we're just going to keep exploring whether you ask for it or not because there's always new spots opening I mean remember most Chinese people come to America for at least one of the four C's College corporate Commerce or cooking so go ahead and hit that like button and let's go next up on Chinatown Cheap Eats we are taking a look at a chill Jou cheap eat this is from chaan China Andrew this is a subset of Cantonese food I mean debatably also its own thing we're at L Jang pork free rice and look look at all the marinated Meats I got behind me this is so tough yo hold all up look they got fresh chaan chestnuts roasting right now too [Music] hang a man right here he's from taan himself yeah oh yeah hey you guys we're in we might as well be in ch cha Shan right now shanto shanto yeah listen guys for $15 we're at L Jang pork fet rice this is a chain from chaan you can get a chopped up pork foot and some slices of duck for $15 and you get a soup soup is very light we got to get into it pork foot right here a lot of tup tup is uh like some some juice not good got the duck yo it's crazy you have so much chew gel stew duck all over southeast Asia you know from Thailand to Cambodia to Vietnam but to go and have the chaan root of the stew duck here is pretty crazy because it all comes together it tastes relatively similar in all the countries another cool thing about this spot even though I'm not going to lie this spot is very Bare Bones do not come here thinking that you're going to find like a real date Vibe but it could be an interesting experience here at the side sauces they have the uh SAA Jang which is actually by the way credited to the Chow Joo people it's that's where it came from so I know a lot of people um are looking at this dish and maybe like oh it looks kind of Taiwanese well a lot of the Taiwanese food honestly is inspired by the uh ch food here's a nice chili oil right here it looks like they use fresh chilies instead of dried chilies and then of course let me this is a ginger or garlic I think this is ginger oh my gosh that's a garlic oil guys if you guys don't know cowo has a very very deep Cuisine history and it's so diverse and so flavorful that honestly a lot of your favorite flavors I don't want to say all but a lot are credited to them especially from the south they got sauces oh my good I got the little chili oil on there you know what the SAA is crazy we're either chiao descendant of chua's in like uh Vietnam Cambodia you know other Southeast Thailand but here you're getting people from that spot in China so guys come check it out on to the next spot all right everybody I'm here at the brand new Haiti location in Chinatown on bow I'm here with my friend Rachel Rachel why don't you give him a quick intro of who you are hi guys I'm Rachel I'm a nasm certified personal trainer nutrition coach and wellness coach but you look like a twitch streamer so um but anyways we were just grabbing Boba and I wanted to cover hatti Haiti is originally a brand from shunan China they are taking Boba to like a very high-tech level they got a lot of computer screens back there very clean high-tech aesthetic but they are opening a lot of locations in New York I recently went to the flushing location so I'm going to check out the one in Chinatown I mean Haiti is joining the Boba Wars in Chinatown can it compete let's see hi everybody I got the coconut mango boom so there's mango puree in there aqua green jasmine tea 100% mango juice coconut milk and then I got the fat-free Boga Pops that are made with pgac and then Sago and then I got the real zero calorie sweeter so there's no sugar in here so no diabetes here it's really good you want to try it all right coconut mango boom no added sugar it has you know natural sugars from the mango but no added sugars wow that's actually really good I'm not even missing the sugar at all I definitely would recommend you get the the calorie free sweetener here I think it tastes just as good honestly this is a pretty good drink and it's not too icy it's not too cold like I don't usually like slushies so I'm going to give this uh 7.5 8 out of 10 all right everybody I have the cloud crisp grape um the cloud is referring to the sea salt foam on top so when you order something with Cloud it's talking to the cloud that's sitting up at at the top so hey T man from shanan you know shunsen makes all the good gadgets it looks like that they also made the bubble machines back there cuz they have a CD so I'm going to close my eyes and try to stab it can I get it in three tries for fry so I also got the low calor sweetener pretty good it doesn't have too much of that artificial sweetener taste this is a little bit cold over drink cuz I think the grapes are partially frozen you this one out of 10 this is pretty good but I'm actually going to take the mango one over it so this was like an 8 out of 10 I give this like a s out of 10 pretty good guys check out Hatt they're really pretty much trying to look like a new age futuristic boba shop I think that they are trying to take Boba into the future um but I think Boba is also to your preference so check them out they got a lot of locations around New York City but still don't forget about the little guys there's a lot of great B shops out there that are not these gigantic companies but anyways Hatt obviously makes pretty good drinks all [Music] right all right everybody I'm going to try the duck Shalom ba Kaa Shalom ba um which I've never had before in my life I'm going to do it plain no no vinegar at first I can taste the duck flavor no joke kind of nice does duck go well in Shalom ba is duck Shalom ba worth it so I think the real question here is is duck shaloma better than chicken shaloma cuz that's why I would compare it to I wouldn't compare duck to Pork I think pork has the most flavor the most fat Ducks usually actually are uh not known to be the fattiest bird you know they're relatively thin and the meat is not in huge pieces it's mostly dark meat cuz there's a lot of like blood in their body so that they can fly really high and all that stuff so honestly though I am surprised that I really did taste the duck so it doesn't look too different though if you look inside are you you focusing look so good you can tap the focus if it's yeah it's focus focus all right now I'm going to try it with smalla sauce you can get at smas sauce.com or Amazon on Prime get it on Amazon Prime you know what I'll take a little bit of vinegar pour that in baby there we go so for $13.99 for five pieces it's obviously a little bit more premium it's one of their specialty boughs but if you have never had duck Shon boughs before Duck Soup dumplings you can come in and just order them you do not have to order $45 worth of food although you do get it for free when you do that so you know dumpling story I I like how they're trying new things and trying to introduce like new Shalom ba you know because people love soup dumpling so anyways let me know if you guys are interested in this all right our next spot is a brand new bakery on bowy Street street called Luna Cafe and Bakery it has a lot of the same traditional things that a traditional Cantonese Bakery in Chinatown has but it's like next level guys let's check it out all right everybody I'm here with the owner Nancy Nancy what how would you describe how this is different than maybe other bakeries yes this Bakery is a combination of eastern and western uh with the traditional Chinese theme uh to Western uh uh cakes I mean I mean look at these cakes here guys these are not found at all your bakeries in Chinatown what what kind of cakes are these um this this one is uh vanilla moose

soy sauce on top look how ribbony and fresh that is made the traditional way you know what even sprinkle a little smalla on there man the one thing that really surprises me about this spot is just how high quality the food is like you know it took over a very old school Bakery again they're doing a lot of the old school things but just in a new school way porum my meaty lots of Ginger oh that's good I just feel like I'm in a eating contest right now here I got to try this uh lob Bacco this Lotus root I saw him frying that fresh out there I think one of the coolest things is obviously between

let it that's tea yeah I've never seen tea in a ball before yeah tea ball h h inside of the citr so fle tea which is the type of tea That's you commonly eat with dim some and you stuff it into this

affordable you can get a bowl for $6 that is absolutely a Chinatown cheapeat it mixes meat veggie sweetness a little saltiness a little pickled with the Umami seaweed it's perfect guys check out Lulu

was so good it's one of my favorite things here I have the chicken rice bowl too I'm going to show it to you look at that cuz you know these are the same people who do Tada Fried Chicken so you know the chicken is good here that's some killer chicken right there it almost tastes a little bit like it's like a mixture between Japanese K and then like Taiwanese popcorn chicken wow that's good all right you guys next up on Chinatown Cheap Eats from the owners of right across the street like the best ker vegetarian dim some I've ever had in my life is paper Suns Cafe really cool really historical theme let's check out they got food items from Buddha budha which is like a vegan chashu bow all the way to like OS mantis oolong cafes with the all types of new school second generation drizzle stuff let's check it out yo uh what up Lawrence you guys uh own Buddha buy as well man what tell us about paper Sun's Cafe real quick we walked past this spot for years and thought it was a perfect spot for a sit down space in Chinatown which doesn't exist so good coffee good comfortable space here we are Pap feele I mean like if you guys just see this like second level just you can just look out but what what what should you get so we've got classic espresso coffees uh but we do chin Town twist too we got lotus seed latte red bean lattes red bean machas we got coconut uh um condensed milk how about that lotus seed latte and the red bean latte like you said the we got we got to do the most Chinatown Flav exactly so celebrating mid the festival those moon cake flavors but in uh so we talking about moon cake coffee this is this is you bang Cafe asking [ __ ] behind this let's go some like like you said you guys running this business for a while but it was like kind of like which is super dope super Asian and super beir like almost like more yeah but not forget about the right right right you got still like pretty pretty good [Music] pretty all right you guys we are looking at some Chinatown and lates here at paper Suns this is the Taiwanese brown sugar uh inspired this is red bean at the bottom with matcha not strawberry that's see it's crazy cuz it had the separation and had the tricolored look that is trendy but at the bottom it was H da and then of course we've got the lotus seed latte this is the coolest one of me this should taste like a moon cake cuz that primarily what they put in the traditional kese moon cake you thing I taste it I could taste this a moon cake latte all right guys this is called Taiwanese black sugar and I asked them why is it called black sugar and it's actually just going to have a deeper molasses Vibe so maybe it's actually just very deep brown sugar but either way I like the name let's get into it tastes a little different than the regular brown sugar I like that and it's coffee see I don't know about all these milk brown sugar drinks I'm not really into that because you're not getting any caffeine from it it's just only milk but this one right here I like this time when he's black sugar all right Lawrence what do you what do you want to say to the people here on our Channel I say we're here to celebrate second generation shop owners here in chanat toown come on by take a visit paper Sun's Cafe 10m Street next up on Chinatown Chief eats we've got a brand new skewer card called Dragon BBQ skewers and it's provided by dumpling story and I'm telling you they got a crazy special right now if I order this potato skewer or any two skewers and a lamb skewer then I'm going to get a free [Music] drink all right you guys for $6 I got a giant rot with cumin on it I got Yang ran this is the most classic uh Chinese skewer cart dish in the world by the way this is not the original corner on the cart of uh Grand Street and Christie there's a fujin card that serves uh Yang ran too in a very authentic style that's actually really tasty as well I do think they have some different items I actually hope they grow the market I hope they don't compete too much uh but personally just you know as an outsider I'm glad that there's more Synergy cuz at night this street is getting crazy all right you guys next up on Chinatown Chief eats we have a spot that's coming over here from Brooklyn and it's probably the most most famous Chinese American chicken chain in America what does that mean we got to check it [Music] [Applause] [Music] out all right you guys we are at pecking house and you are looking at the chicken s there's defin like a lot of Chinese Americans here supporting let's just take a look you've got like the southern style bread you've got a actually a tenin chilies I believe on this piece of fried chicken so like I said this is the very first like Chinese American fried chicken sandwich that I've ever seen before and you see like it's such a hybrid I mean I want to say visually it looks more Southern for sure definitely from a chil level that's Chinese all right guys this is like a way extra spicy laama kind of vibe but less black beans and uh this is chicken thigh listen guys it looks like something you got at your state fair it's really good I mean it's got all the traditional s elements with the milk bread but man Japanese don't make it this spicy look at that it's all soaking on the bottom it's completely red very like like got the chili crisp in there you feel that texture that kind of like ground up chili totally mouth feel I mean it's got a lot of same elements as a Japanese sandoo but it's a chicken thigh it's crispy it's mad juicy and it's spicy but not too spicy you know what I mean I mean I think it honestly looks a little bit spicier than it is so it's definitely bearable so I'd say you guys Rec I I recommend it cuz there's that Mayo that's riding nicely and the bread is all soaked up and oily definitely not a lowfat food and definitely not super cheap but honestly for a different experience you guys might have to check it out all right guys we're at a brand new spot called Nuki shii it's right outside of Chinatown and they serve Northern style shumai yes guys if you didn't know in the north of China they have their own St of Shai Shai B Shai baai so this is the chicken right here we've got uh shrimp and pork and we've got pork and onion or beef and onion right here I'm going to start off with this one they've got their own chili oil they actually sell uh Chinese kimchi as well you guys know in northern China that's actually common by the coastline so let's check it out by the way guys a Shi is really anything that's just wrapped and open at the top with like a wheat skin wrapper and um for example the ones in the north they're more like crunched at the top and if you guys want to see something really crazy I'mma to pop up a photo right now of a shangh xiaomai that has no meat in it and is literally rice stuffed in a wheat wrapper AR you guys pork and shrimp beang Shai yo guys the flavor Prof is definitely very strong on Northern Shai shii definitely give it a shot listen shii is blowing up you got dumpling and dips in the East Village which is serving like a Thai version of Southern Chinese Shai um obviously this one's beang shaay you've got Chinese kimchi of course listen a lot of people have dietary restrictions maybe they're Halal or whatever this is the chicken one I you getting that deep you got different types of Shuma see something like that end it listen guys New York Chinese food is getting so deep that we're not even in Flushing right now we're in Manhattan there's like so

by what Hanoi Cuisine Hanoi yeah it's upscale Vietnam and we have some uh Inspire from Hanoi so it's like the first one Hanoi restaurant in New York City maybe right yeah maybe this first one yeah all right well hey guys I'm excited to check it out especially the F oh my goodness we are here at L Dong Dong is the Vietnamese money l French this is a Hanoi style P notice the differences the clear broth the heavy volume of Ginger less herbs and spices less different cuts of meat there's really only one which is the filet minan and uh yeah wide noodles the key I think the biggest easiest way for you to tell is that the FL noodles are wider they could gum extra wide I'd say these are just a little wider oh my gosh this is their version of the yo I mean I I guess they just did with fried sticks there's no hoene there's no Sriracha offered just the bird's eye chili and the marinated garlic I wish this was an actual fluffy Chinese doughnut I'm going to go ahead and give this for $21 a 9 out of 10 I'm telling you this H nor FL is an absolute Banger all right everybody here at Leong we have the bud me this is the classic bunm with the pate and the sausage this is how you really rate a bunme and I just got back from Paris I ate all the bunm in Paris that I could this is $17 so it's not cheap but they also give you this soup on the side which I will dip into after I take my first bite let's [Music] go very Pate heavy so if you don't like pate you won't like it but if you love Pate you'll like you'll love this let's dip it in here and I went back to so I a lot of cheap bum me spot I usually get a chicken or a beef or a grilled pork bun me but when you kind of go to the premium spots you got to try the classic with all the head cheese and stuff it's very high quality I'd say this bun me is lacking a little bit more veggies than I would want but overall the Pate is A1 the Pate is like 10 out of 10 but this does taste more like a fullon pate bun me but this soup is delicious I don't think this is fuz soup I think it's something different oh the bites got better as I went in [Music] all right you guys next up we've got one of my favorite dishes in the entire world forgive me for pronouncing it wrong cha or cha this is 100 years old it's from anoi obviously normally it's done with a Vietnamese River catfish this is a brand Xeno you can see the herbs the dill the turmeric the noodles the sauces my goodness this is one of my favorite dishes in the entire world I'm going to get this little bro going we got crazy amounts of d uh tumor and Dill on it right now got various types of foliage little leaves big leaves I'm going get these noodles uh it was made famous by a restaurant in Hanoi called Chaka laong and uh apparently that's been around for like a 100 years in Hanoi so here we go oh my goodness guys I'm telling you guys if you guys have never had had Chaka go to your local restaurant and get it but I'm not going to lie you got to go to a place that does it well because not everybody does it good even that has [Music] it Vietnamese catfish D turmeric [Music] cha listen guys come try it is this the most traditional version of CHA that I've ever had in my life no but is it delicious absolutely I would say maybe little bones in there but at the end of the day this was totally the vibe I was looking for and I liked uh that everything came together in a super M way guys the come the Leong it's all the same team that pacon Tha Village so it's a tie team but they work with Vietnamese chefs as well they've got dishes from neighboring countries to Vietnam as well which is like Thailand La Cambodia a little bit so hey guys high-end Northern Vietnamese street food in Union Square New York City Southeast Asian food in the city just keeps getting better and better there's no hoine there's no Sriracha offered just the bird's eye chili and the marinated garlic I wish this was an actual fluffy Chinese doughnut I'm going to go ahead and give this for $21 a n out of 10 I'm telling you this H North FL is an absolute banger
