1975? Katz’s Deli in NYC started in the 1800’s. What is this shit? Please wear gloves when making the food.
Amazing concept, bravo
Got sent here by the YT Algo and glad I clicked. I'm absolutely sure you guys will blow up soon, just keep putting in the work. One advice is that during the interview scenes especially at the start, I know that you had two different camera angles with different cameras. The quality switch between the two cameras can be jarring and distracting for the viewer to fully immerse themselves. (which may have been fixed since this video was 2 months ago) ATB
Thank You!!
Really love this
Thank You!🩵
Thank you Frank for sharing your story. I will come visit.
this is what we want to see, all day, all year...
Love this! THANK YOU!!!
Have been working in the kitchen for 45 years. Worked in London, Paris and am currently staying and working in Italy. I get you. Have worked in a 1 Michelin restaurant as a chef doing Mediterranean cuisine in the south of Italy for 15 years. Had my brigate of 8 cooks working in the kitchen alone. And yes, we are nothing without our teams of cooks and dishwashers included too.....
💯💯💯
Quality
💯
Maybe one day if i go to Toronto for vacation, ill stop in to that pizzeria!!! Love the Toronto accent!!!!!
Yas!!!✌️
Thank you for making a vegetarian Lok Ba Go 😋 Haka cuisine is a delicious type of Chinese cuisine, they have lots of flavorful dishes
🤍
This isn't pizza, it's an experiment for a George Brown culinary class.
Real burgers are on a fire grill not oily flat top
I used to eat there every time after summer school in 2019 when I was still in Toronto, want to go back there in the future.
Funny how she sounded apologetic when saying she no longer makes the Pi for won ton anymore.
Wow this is AMAZING to see a fellow Hakka Chinese and our culture represented here. THANK YOU this is just inspiring and motivates me to keep going!!!
🩵🩵🩵
I was intrigued due to the title. My dad and my late grandpa and late grandma were Hakka. I have not hear my dad speak the language. When I was an infant l used to talk hakka, but l learned Dutch Cantonese and Surinam, l lost the ability speaking Hakka. Fun to see fellow Hakka people.
🤍🤍🤍
Its harder to make a slab of radish cake than a slab of charSiu
😂

We dined at Alma in May and I thought the bao were amazing. Now I understand why. Nice story, we wish your business well, we are glad we encouraged your restaurant.
Thank You!⚡️⚡️⚡️
I realized this is from a new channel! Good job at creating such a high quality video!

I love her story, energy, and journey to finding her craft. I can tell the food is delicious and can't wait to try it myself when I finally make it to Toronto.
Thank You!!🩵🩵🩵

I’m from Kolkata India!!! Although I didn’t know Anna, I feel incredibly proud watching this and hope to try this restaurant when I visit toronto!!
This is so cool! Thank You!🤍🤍🤍
Well done. You are amazing with food and these food combination. 👍👍👍
Thank You!🤍
i thought the binchotan was hot.. until she kept describing the dish... omg big fan of you as of today
🤍🤍🤍
such an amazing chef and person.
She really is!!🩵
Thanks!
Wow! Thank YOU so much for your kind generous support!!🤍🤍🤍
Toronto style pizza is dirty, unsanitary, and dives. No gloves worn, spatula's left in dirty dusty areas, watch guy talk and spit flying on the pizza. Why do pizzerias in Italy, NY, Boston, even Buffalo use gloves and face masks ? Even places in Mexico got better sanitary practices than Toronto !
Spatula on top of oven that never gets cleaned. Oven full of char with pizza right over it. Goto NY, Boston, Cali, Mexico, Italy, even England they're all wearing gloves with masks and not talking / spitting over food they're preparing. OG dive that's what this is !
I was hoping to see some Hakka dishes being served but disappointed to see she is passing off Cantonese or TeoChew dishes as Hakka. Maybe in Canada people less aware.
Radish Cakes 🥺
🥺
as a Ukrainian we also put a bit of potato on the perogie dough to be light fluffier. :P
Nice!!👌
Being Chinese from Kolkata like her, I don't have good fond memories of being in the school run by Irish brothers, it was an absolute nightmare. The Christian brothers and the teachers would abuse the students physically.
Best tasting smoked meat in Toronto, bar none!
She is real hero of her life , I just want to make radish cakes, awesome 🙌 well done bless you keep going
Thank You for the kind words!! 🤍🤍🤍
"Alma" means in Hungarian "apple".
Cool!🤍
11:38 Chinese people like long things. E.g. long noodles symbolise longevity. Instead of cutting bok choy up and mixing in with the noodles early on. At the final 20 seconds of the noodles and sauce process add long uncut bok choy to stir with the sauce. Then plate the noodles, then plate the bok choy in uncut long strands on the left and right sides of the noodles like a ladies figure and the wanton in the middle on top.
10:02 excellent wanton skin wrapping technique. Simple and effective in 2 steps. Beautiful Chinese gold ingot shape.
So proud of you, sis!!!! That’s my sister! Her food is AMAZING! ❤❤❤❤❤
‘Straight A’ Sister Chen! Thanks for showing the 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍
Is she indian Chinese.. ?
I loved that she is very humble :"i am nothing without my team." Kudo to her!!
She is the BEST!🤍
