Chinatown is one of manhattan’s best neighborhoods for budget bites and today we’re going to be joined by two chinese-american youtubers who are going to be showing us five cheap meat spots like locals you don’t want to miss it hi everyone we are the people and today we’re going
To show you and john bar around chinatown to some of our favorite quick bites come on that’s cute that’s very cute perfect for chinatown look at this tiny little booth we got air conditioning and foods on the tables this is a little weird alley street i used to get
My haircut here for five dollars actually either just get a quick buy after yes and this place is called tasty hand pulled noodles but we ordered the pan fried dumplings because they are a little underrated and you can’t sleep on them to know that it’s a good pan fried dumpling the outside
Is a little crispy lightly fried and then the inside is chewy take a bite and look at the inside wow it’s got such a nice crispy exterior and then we have a good portion of pork with
Just a couple chives some veggies i made some of the soy sauce on top now i’ve actually never eaten here before and i know so many other pan-fried dumpling spots in chinatown but already one bite i’m really impressed with this choice let’s take another hmm i’m impressed actually one of the
Best pan-fried dumplings i’ve had in manhattan’s chinatown very fresh very very fresh cheers cheers it actually tastes so much better with the soy sauce you can’t you have to dunk it in soy sauce is so good and there’s some ginger in there some chives it’s so
Fresh so refreshing so you can get them frozen too right yes take them frozen take them home because you got the all these options right here i’m kind of curious about this five dollar haircut to be honest with you how good of a haircut is it for five months chinese americans when
They’re younger we all got the same haircut just kind of short everywhere and that’s what i got yeah yeah and it was good and then we have a private booth and we spent seven dollars this is one of the cheapest ways to eat out in manhattan and actually have some privacy like
Would you admit this is a pretty good cheap date for a couple oh yeah it comes with water i love this we have not one but two different doors yes there’s so much things here there’s
A lot of food places a usps and there’s haircuts you’re five oh we’re going to stop i want to stop by five haircut i’m in for this i think it’s absolutely crazy how this street had some of
The most murders in u.s history here on deuter’s bloody angle and today it’s so colorful and full of restaurants i would pose right here too just like that girl and i always remember these kind of haircut places on ground level it’s about 20 more expensive than the basement level
That’s the urhu instrument traditional chinese music can i get the three hong kong sounds keys it’s kind of influenced from the 19th century when during british colonial times and the british like to have their tea with milk and sugar and over time it has evolved
Into the hong kong milk tea black tea along with evaporated sweetened condensed milk typical cup probably has like maybe 50 milligrams of caffeine this could go up to like 220 milligrams super highly caffeinated it’s really creamy i’m gonna drink a little bit because this is freaking hot
Really milky really really creamy it’s smooth it’s super caffeinated i i can feel i can i can taste the tea and i could just like instantly i’m feeling more awake and feeling like hong kong they like to drink this during the afternoon
Time just to give a little energy boost so we’re a little late for this we’ll stay up all night can you get the tony special yeah of course one order yes anything else that’s it all right 550
Okay thank you here’s my sponge cake i feel like we just ordered something off the kid’s menu you gave it too right no no it’s like i’m eating i’m dining out in china with all the grandmas grandpas
It’s a good time yeah we’re looking for some soft silky pillowy smooth rice noodle rolls just flip down your throat i almost sounded wrong so this is a staple dish it comes from bongo province in china and the way to make it is they add water dough make it into liquid dough put
It on a platter steam it add all the toppings in it wrap it up trench soy sauce dried shrimp pork and chicken in one for 550. this could be one of the best values of the day yeah
I got the mince pork the best word to describe this is so pillowy it’s silky smooth do you know how they bake the meat is it all in together or is it separated i think it’s so they put it in
A platter and then just throw all the meat on there throw it all together at once and then wrap it up this could be a little bit elusive to get on your fork huh sort of like jello
Yeah this is comfort food isn’t it it really is look at this yum drenched in soy sauce perfect so slippery it just slides down people visiting new york they have such a big opportunity to experience more than your typical american chinese food right for sure
There’s so much variety here and this is just one region of china hong kong there’s so much more this is so heavy too these are not light little sandwiches we have a lot of food vietnamese bond
Me here such a popular thing in chinatown there’s so much variety all over here within 10 blocks i have the more traditional ban me the pork and the vietnamese ham and you have the fusion right i have a more americanized nice one inside here there’s the smoke ham and the salami
Definitely tastes salami a lot of pork definitely not scooping you on the meat here that’s all but so overlooked for a bad me sandwich that bread is holding everything together it’s got to be good crunchy it’s airy there’s some french influence in this baguette
Wow you knew you knew right away i gotta say asian food it’s all about balance there’s a lot of carrots vegetables goes so well with the heavy meat this totally keeps with our no frills vibe today curious what we’re getting it moves too this looks amazing it feels like very 1950s
They have little toys here you want to bring kids this is a good spot so this is some really light fluffy sponge cake freaking delicious subtle taste less less sugar than western pastries but so freaking good i feel like everything has less sugar than
Western pastries while you’re on the subject that’s true another name for this is called jiggly cotton cake and also a paper wrap cake because you see there’s a paper wrapped around it so you don’t have to get your hands dirty eggs flour cream and baking powder that’s it
Very simple yeah the fewer ingredients it is the more precise you have to be we have ube flavor we’ve got matcha we have what was it cinnamon butter butter we can’t even tell we’re just gonna be eating a bunch of them and letting you know what they are
They’re so soft and pillowy isn’t it so funny it is really fun to use like my lips or my teeth green or something now i can only imagine look at this like you actually can enjoy the texture
Of the bread all right all right all this food for me sorry ben sorry john okay i’ll share here you go especially during the nicer weather months like now in the fall there’s so many places you can come bring your friends cheap as heck
Sit outside enjoy the city it’s perfect we’ve been open for over 35 years and we have the best sponge cakes in chinatown so come by and they agree for sure i agree we just got two big fans we got three

One thing I love about all my NYC youtubers is that they always show love to other channels.
Don't stab your food with chopsticks, bad manners.
The food looks great. BUT…..where are the $5.00 meals? I know one was $5.50 but was hoping to see a number of $5 meals (other than the very affordable $2 sponge cakes). If you find THOSE places, please let me know. 😀
I wouldn't eat a single thing from Chinatown in NYC. Just walking by, you get that stench of rotting fish.
Hi John. Are you gonna be doing 'City Climb' at the Edge??
Your channel just popped up. I have not been to Chinatown for a while.
MSG attack!
China town turn into one of the most filthy and dirty places in NYC No community pride Just filthy
Fried dumplings go better with Chinese vinegar
Bro, too much soy sauce on your rice rolls.
Im definitely going to check out these places!
17 Mott Street Wo Hop downstairs
I don't know where my son went for lunch today but he sent me a text that he found cheap hot pot in Chinatown (he even sent a pic). I will share this video with him for the $5 dumplings, since I mentioned it to him. The only Chinese bakery I know there is Fey Da (sp?) bakery. It used to be on 34th Street, I believe, and they had really good baked goods (I don't know but Asian bakeries have lighter cakes than American bakeries. I experienced that in Japan and Korea as well. They can be packed with frosting, yet they are so light. I remember the chestnut cake I had in Shibuya. Lots of frosting, yet very light on the stomach.).
He should iron his shirt. Seriously, it looks better and makes the video more believable.
I tried that first place, Tasty Hand Pulled Noodles, and it was so good! I loved that street it was on too, it was quieter than most of the rest of Chinatown. I went today and it was a lot of fun. Thanks for the suggestion!
Can you visit the ear cleaning place in Chinatown
Cool video & will watch more but please stop with the Cheers while tapping food it's D-U-M-B
what I really dun like is the tipping culture of USA
None of this food seems convincing to me.
Tried Toniis rice noodles and the hongkong milk tea is potent nice little caffeine kick
To this day I believe Chinese and specifically Cantonese Fish and duck are superior to any french treatment but on "pastry", no..
I hate when places take another countries food and call it their own. That tea is not Hong Kong tea. The only thing I’ll give credit to is Korean BBQ, that’s nothing like American BBQ.
一路順風
You literally passed by the best restaurant in China town !! Nom Wah Tea Parlor 🤤🤤🤤13 Doyers street. Is cheap too !!
Brilliant tips, as always.
Here Be Barr : no halal/kosher food in China town?.
