I’m so excited. I moved to Edmonton from Ontario about four months ago. I knew we had a couple of T&T markets here. I haven’t been but now I have every reason to! Thanks Mike!
The Lays flavors are available in states. Not all of them but many of them I’ve tried at my local Asian Market. We go once a month and pick up a few favorites and always grab the new flavor Lays.
I like your honest reviews, Mike 👍 I agree with you regarding the fried chicken.....batter is way too thick. So thankful we have a big Asian supermarket in Vancouver 🥰
@@PerfectPrinceX1 They're selling your data about mental health to advertisers, so say you're a gambling addict and use better help to treat it, then they sell that data to advertisers, good luck trying to quit gambling with gambling ads showing up everywhere.

T&T's Papa Crispy Chicken is so dang good for something sold at a grocery store! It depends on the location though. I find that there’s only one location where I am that makes it better and more flavourful than other locations in my city. Also, they just opened up a T&T in the Seattle area.
@@joecha9746 ...it's the largest asian supermarket in Canada, like asian version of literally SuperStore or whatever supermarkets chains. More like your comment is overrated, as if everyone didn't already know.
am sorry to be the one to say it but better help is a scam . a known one in fact and the only reason i can think off for mike to accept their sponsorship is that he dosnt know how they destroyed people lives and not any people no people who suffer from mental illness . i hope he go back and a research on them . its a huge brand risk for mike and i hope it dosnt backfire , mike is a nice guy and dosnt deserve it
You know you like a YT video when you keep forgetting you've already clicked 👍 like and keep going to click again! 😂😂😂❤❤❤ This time of year always gets me excited as I know Luna New Year videos aren't too far away!!! ❤❤❤
I'am so jealous!, l wish we had a T&T store over here in the UK, l would definately buy the chive pancakes, it looks delicious!, plus a ton of other items such as the roast meats with rice, ready to go..😋😩
I have always enjoyed how you present food, in particular the way you relate certain tastes to those from your province in China, so this was really lovely to watch. I'm glad you have found your food connections to home. Happy New Year Mike & Chen Family! From Wellington, New Zealand 🇳🇿
I am so looking forward to your return to Redmond. T&T has opened in Bellevue, and I look forward to your comparison, since you’ve shopped several of the Vancouver locations.
BTW I think meat consistency is like with veggies or anything else, a matter of taste. I prefer meat thoroughly cooked and not too soft, a bit tough and also maybe crunchy. I want something to bite into, if I want something to melt in my mouth I eat ice cream or custard or what have you. Lamb skewers was also my favorite street food in China, the flavor is something else, but the whole package wasn't complete without the occasional chives or baby octopus skewer.
I just had the fried chicken on the weekend. It was seasoned very garlicky. The chili powder and salt pepper seasoning on the side is a big plus but overall the meat is very dry especially the inside.
I'm sure the Chilli powder helped but not sure I'd want a garlicky fried chicken. I probably wouldn't want to taste it at all I prefer a spicy savory fried chicken. But I'll devour garlicky sauced wings lol.
Mike do another video compare the first American location in Seattle/Bellevue..about to head in there this morning and grab some of the prok burger things you showed
Happy new year Mikey 🎉🎉🎉be blessed always....have an awesome year ahead. Lots of love from Asha n Reagan from Trenancemanor Phoenix Durban South Africa ❤️😘❤️❤️
I get my virtual Chinese food fix from your videos. ❤ If you’re coming back to the DFW area, please do an authentic Chinese restaurants review, especially in the city of Plano!
The chicken looks delicious the texture and the flavor to, the chicken is amazing and very juicy and crunchy.they have great chefs who cook from the heart and love,understanding of who what it takes to fry up great chicken.and the store had a lot of great things to bye.
The Lay's...Oyster flavor and the Fried Crab flavor is to die for! Gotta look for those Oreos at the local chinese markets. Hope they carrry it! Need to visit this market when up in Canada.
They just opened there first USA location in Bellevue, WA. It's been a huge success and they have already announced a second location will be opening in 2025 in Lynnwood off 196th st. Looking forward to trying it out. Lynnwood sure has a monopoly on the big Asian grocery stores
Mike I can guarantee that you would find those different oreo flavors in the US if you looked and shopped at other Asian markets. Also there's stores that specialize in imported snacks, food, and drinks from around the world you just need to find one in your city and state.
Happy new year Mike! They have these flavors in the Asian stores in New York too. Hmart, 99 ranch, and Asian food markets have these special lays, ruffles, and Oreos
Not that I'm Chinese... but just from this video, I already look forward to visiting the bay area location opening this new year near me. Looks like so many good things to try.
It’s cute how you were surprised by “popcorn chicken” that has been a thing in the US forever. KFC had it for the kids meal 30 years ago and you can go to the frozen food section of many grocery stores to find it. 😂😂
I got that deep fried chicken several weeks ago and obviously it's a bit dry but very tasteful. For a whole chicken in T&T for CA$12 compared to less than half Jollibee chicken for CA$18. Ended up going to Jolibee to buy an extra order of Jollibee's large gravy. Contrast in taste since the chicken has a strong garlic&ginger flavor. We don't get those Lays' chips flavor in Edmonton T&Ts. As for the beef soup, beef's tender but the broth could had been better.
Great video! I been to T&T many times, along with many "looks better than it tastes" experiences. Kinda sad because I would eat there so often if the hot foods tasted better.
What a great place to shop. Love the highlights and such a variety!! Happy new year to you, Mike!!❤
I’m so excited. I moved to Edmonton from Ontario about four months ago. I knew we had a couple of T&T markets here. I haven’t been but now I have every reason to! Thanks Mike!

As a Portuguese Canadian I love Portuguese tarts
I like the honest review. I almost picked up a fried chicken from them but seeing the thick batter made me put it back.
Stop promoting BetterScam
it pays the bills tho
hows it a scam ?

I need to try the one up here near langley
That Bellevue T&T was a mad house this last weekend. Got my half dozen of Portuguese Egg Tarts straight from the oven. They were so delicious!
Every time I drive by I see huge lines 😮 maybe I should park and queue up next time
@@mostbestjia627
Worth it
@ - It was pretty crowded on Saturday. Maybe mid-day weekday would be better.
Their snacks were super stale and the produce was way overripe.
I wanna go next week

At the Factoria Mall
That place is so overrated. It’s just a nicer looking Asian grocery store. Nothing special

Happy New Year to you and your family. I just read that they are making a T&T in San Jose. Coming in the fall of 2025 !

Happy New Year, Mike!
Mike I'm a huge fan of your videos. Let me tell ya i need those oreos and lays chips ASAP cause they look soo good. Happy new year man.
I'am so jealous!, l wish we had

I love T and T! The egg tarts are sooo good!
Good to see you cookin again Mike! 😊
Wish that store was near me 😂
Hope everyone have a happy new year 🎉🎉
Happy new year 🎆🎆🎊🎊🎊
I was in Saigon a month ago and had beef pho crisps from Lays. Also wagu beef lays in tubs. Yum ❤ this supermarket is insane. 😮
The lays package looks like walkers crisps in the UK . Love the videos keep it up my friend 😊
Happy New Year!!!! Mike you have a great selection. Hope it's all delish!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Happy New Year!

We need one of these stores in New Hampshire for sure!
I actually think the chicken is just alright... maybe not exactly my taste but I am glad most people like them a lot.
Hey Mike have a Happy and Healthy New Year ❤❤
I am so looking forward to your return to Redmond. T&T has opened in Bellevue, and I look forward to your comparison, since you’ve shopped several of the Vancouver locations.

And I got the first 'bizarre' idea from this video

at 9:50 that “pop corn” chicken looks like fried chicken livers. yummo, either way. 😊
Mike Chen…..YOU’RE THE VERY BEST!!! Love Your Videos! You’re AMAZING!💙x
I don’t think Mike can’t go one episode without saying “Umami”😂 love it
Umami, spice, wow, this is goooood are all the words he uses.
In EVERY video, no matter where he's at or what he's eating, he ALWAYS says that something is his favorite
eUmami™ Jooosey™ and Tendeur™ *patent pending
Umami is the fifth taste receptor on the tongue
Uuuummmmaaazzzziinnnggg!
Hey Mike. Happy Saturday to you!! U like the different lay's chips. The kit Kats too. Do Enjoy.. 🐞🤗😋
Really enjoyed this video with more conversation xx
First time to see Chinese grocery store. looks fresh and good
I just had the fried chicken on the weekend. It was seasoned very garlicky.

Happy New Year, Mike! 🎆
Is this an airbnb he is in as everywhere he stays, always seems so well equipped
Partially, it's his own property that he stays at and when he's not there he lists it on Airbnb.
Mike- they just opened the first US location in Bellevue WA ( Seattle)
Mike do another video compare the first American location in Seattle/Bellevue..about to head in there this morning and grab some of the prok burger things you showed
The 韭菜盒子 20:29 really skimped on the chives....

We've plenty of good Asian markets here in Dallas, but T&T looks pretty wonderful too. I'd chow down on all that stuff and then some!
They opened a TNT up in factoria, WA two weeks ago Mike and i have been trying to get that fried chicken myself, either sold out or long wait. Errr
portugese tart from T&T is amazing. Like very few places that's that good fresh from the oven
Those Lay's bags were criminally underfilled!

😮😮😮🤤🤤🤤. Ok, you convinced me. Imma go check out T&T!
The Lay's...Oyster flavor and the Fried Crab flavor is to die for! Gotta look for those Oreos at the local chinese markets. Hope they carrry it! Need to visit this market when up in Canada.
The unique flavored Oreos are usually available at 99 Ranch in the US, but most of them are limited editions so you gotta go get them fast.
Happy New Year to you and your Family Mike and Food so Delicious 😋 and I need rice on the side. L.o.l
😘Happy New Year you guys🎊🥳
Appreciated! Thanks and same to you
Welcome to Vancouver! That soup looks really good. I need to try it next time I'm at T&T. :D
The pork buns are a go to easy dinner in my house. So stoked you like them!

Hey Mikey it's good 2 C you again buddy. 😂 If I'm ever in Vancouver I'll definitely go check it out.
In NYC, Teso have a lot of different flavors of Lays. More than some chinese supermarkets.
I love T&T, the snack section is just amazing. Groceries can be pretty pricy there though.
They just opened a location in Bellevue, WA too. You should compare it.
When he picked up that mango I was thinking "that's the size mangos are meant to be"... I'm Australian
Mikey you bring me joy 😊
Happy new year Mike! They have these flavors in the Asian stores in New York too. Hmart, 99 ranch, and Asian food markets have these special lays, ruffles, and Oreos
It would have been wild to see you when I go grocery storing at T&T. My parents didn’t love the fried chicken either.
Mike, I love that you go all in for the food experiences and culture wherever you are. You are so uplifting and a ray of light in this world!
Wow, wish I had an Asian market by me, I love Asian food!
I've seen those international Lay's chips in Elmhurst, Queens, NYC, at Skyfoods and also at Teso Mini.
Holy crap, I wish there were one of these supermarkets in south Jersey! Wasabi squid Lays!
Not that I'm Chinese... but just from this video, I already look forward to visiting the bay area location opening this new year near me. Looks like so many good things to try.
T&T is like my favourite place to shop. I go to the one in metrotown burnaby bc. Its like an experience lol
Always making me hungry Mikey… I want a TNT here in Australia now😂
Happy new year 🎉❤

They’re here in Canada $12.00 and for a year I couldn’t get one. Now they’re everywhere thankfully so I had one to myself
14:18 haha I like the dad joke there xD
T&T now open is Seattle,WA
Happy New Eating, Mike.😋
Have a good New Year 🎉
Happy New Year Mike!! I love fried chicken! Not a fan of Chinese supermarket food.
i shop at t&t weekly and had no idea about this chicken?!! must find now
Put the pork from the pork burger in the scallion pancake mmmmmm
all that in bc? good god we cant get that down here in north idaho!
The Cumin Lamb Skewer Lays are my favorite. I go to the Super H Mart mainly to buy those.
T&T is a chain across Canada owned by grocery Giant (at least in Canada) Loblaws.
You know, they just opened a T&T here in Bellevue,WA.
Asian Lays are the best. I still like regular ones but the Asian flavors really hit the spot.
pepper pork lays so good. love T&T chicken omg so good. soy garlic flavour.
4:54 those flavours are insane 😂
Great video! I been to T&T many times, along with many "looks better than it tastes" experiences. Kinda sad because I would eat there so often if the hot foods tasted better.
This explains why the line was so long for chicken and the newest location in Bellevue, WA.
I really like the lamb ribs they have, and the baked pork with rice.
The wasabi and octopus is my favorite
Ate at Laura's II in Lafayette a few days ago and thought about your review. Happy New Year Mike!
