They got oppresed in china because they tried to oppress china.. in 1860s they tried to carve out a country in china and declared jihad against china, they started massacreing non muslim chinese, so china needs to defend itself...
@@redrum4139 im just saying the story behind... why china oppresed them... the dungan revolt cause 21 million dead in china... but as revenge china kills 93% of chinese muslims (dungans)... so many fled to central asia
Thanks for the review, Vadim. I wanna take a trip out there; Brooklyn, born and raised here. LOVE Sheepshead Bay! The food looks very homestyle, comfy. Definitely on my to-do list once they get this Covid-19 BS under control. 😑 Their fairly new to the business (2018), and hope they're doing well. Keep supporting small business. Be safe. 😃
"my parents had a hard time with english and i had to help them with legal stuff" i feel you man! one of the many things you do to help your family while growing up as immigrants. much love and respect to the Azimovs!!
Parents: Russian Older Son: English w/ accent Youngest daughter: American accent The immigrant story of America and how fast the generations assimilate.
It was such a beautiful moment when she was standing with her daughter and making noodles the same way her mother and her did it a long time ago and probably many generations before them
Why is Islam so obsessed with Muslim father, non Muslim mother concept? Why will a non Muslim give her daughter in marriage to a Muslim Arab?? Similar fake stories have developed across China India Egypt etc.. Islam is glorification of Arab culture and people
Thank you for making this video. I never heard of Dungan people, their culture, or their food before. This video was informative and I look forward to trying their restaurant once it is safe for my whole family to travel again. These people are the epitome of the American dream to me and I'm glad they decided to spread their culture. Muslim Chinese people who live in countries like Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Russia, and other independent states of the former Soviet Union makes the Dungan people the perfect target for narrow minded Americans here. Glad they decided on moving to New York and I wish them success in their future endeavors.
My grandmother used to make me lagman when I was a kid. My grandfather helped her prepare the noodles. They used to tell me stories about their childhood. Our conversations were filled with warmth and laughter. I hope your business is doing well during these difficult times. My wife and I own a restaurant in Almaty and we know how hard it is. Thank you for such a great video about: family, values, hard work and my favourite dish of all time.
Being uyghur myself, I have lots of dungan relatives, I wish you flourishing, rescue and development of your culture! Яша дөнгән вә уйғурум! Салам алейкум из Чилика!
Dungan is essentially Hui Chinese (one of the two major Muslim group in China) living in central Asian and you can even find at 0:54 on its signboard where the Chinese letter actually means "Hui People Food". There are actually many Hui and Xinjiang restaurants in NY such as Dun Huang - East Village or Lanzhou Ramen
I'm from Kazakhstan and we adore dungan food, especially lagman and especially in the south🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻 Парасатты, дәстүр сақтайтын отбасы екен, Алла берекесін берсін🤲
@@gamal-nasser OKAY I just had it! its really good! It's like russian flavor profiles meet chinese cooking techniques. Handmade noodles with a beef stew in this dill flavored broth, handmade beef noodle style soup with a rich paprika flavored. and the broth was just incredibly rich. Soups were excellent, and the Mante were tender. I would have liked a bit more spice, but I didn't order so I couldn't ask for more. Everything was really well executed. I recomend it if you are even in brooklyn!
The dad said they married after finishing school, so they probably got married and started having kids in their early 20s. Plus Asians 40-50 usually look young.
History and food are two things that connect people. One day I showed a senior Dungan man speaking Dungani language to my friend from central China, he could literally understand everything but commented that the man sounds like he came from 100 years ago. That’s the time they immigrated to Central Asia. The legacy stays ❤️

My parents were born and raised in Kazakhstan as part of the German minority. They moved to Germany more than 30 years ago but I enjoy it very much if my Mom makes Russian/Kazakh food e.g. Blinchiki, Manti, Pilaf, Piroshki, etc. It's more than delicious 😍
We need more of this kind of content from Munchies. I dunno who could dislike this. If you are reading this and are in the position to donate, please do. You can tell this family pours their heart and soul into this restaurant.

I’ve been here several times and their food is absolutely amazing !! If anyone gets the chance to dine here , definitely try their “guyru lagman “ or the “jin momo” with any stir fry - you won’t regret it !! Can’t wait to order from here again !
Great job to this channel for highlighting hidden gems like this. These people are minorities within a minority group, and it was awesome that the video did included the history of these people alongside the food. Often times such small ethnic groups have their identify erased amongst the demographics, and its refreshing to see them get the spotlight! Great video
Immigrants are one of the hardest working people in America. They bring respect, culture and family values. American can learn a lot from these people.
Yes indeed. I know a Vietnamese family who used to have their young children do their homework in the back of the restaurant. Now they’re all grown up and are in college and have graduated from college and they are now professionals. Mom and dad still work in the restaurant and it is doing very well. In fact it’s doing fine in the midst of this pandemic. Their work ethics is so admirable. Only in America.
As much as we try to deny it almost every person yelling build that wall had someone in their family stepping off the boat in a strange place just trying to survive. Immigration built America and is its strongest assets.
i live in a smaller city/town in australia and 5 minutes from my house theres a xinjiang/uighur restaurant 5 minutes from my house. they seem to be doing well. the food is very similar to dungan food and the flavours are absolutely insane.
I really hope this video made a formidable advertisement for their restaurant, and they had since tons of customers. Really hard working family, they deserve it.
It so cool that they are Dugans from KZ and they speak perfect Russian, they use Chinese names for the ingredients and their family speaks English with proper American accent:)
Those dishes are common chinese northwestern dishes. NY has tons of FOB chinese that can translate for them. It's no surprise that the menu names are authentic.
It’s really weird for you to bring up that they have a “proper American accent” Did you even watch the video? The dad and mom didn’t speak a word of English, and almost everyone else had a heavy accent.
@@AndalusianLuis : They seems to be speaking Russian. Some people associate Russian to Mongolian.. and if you listen, it is half Mongolian, or some classify it as "Manchu".. when you read online, in online materials... the "truth" is always based on the learner.. to repeat what is understood... If you put all of those "languages" together, it is the same. Basically it is Mongolian, with a little bit of something else mixed into it. "The five nations are Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui, and Tibetan form the Chinese nation. " - Taiwan proposed this model, but people rejected it !!! Stupid asses... and now, there is no such a thing as "Dungan" groups....
I'm russian from Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan and I confirm, dunganese cousine is very cherished, lagman, hashani, ashlamfu all that, even dungani ice cream was the best. Had a few dungani friends, great people, beautiful women.
So nice to see Dungan cuisine in NY! Such a beautiful family. In my childhood I Loved Dungan cuisine back in Kazakhstan. Успехов семье! Алга Казахстан! :)

This is super cool! I've never heard of this culture and when I'm able to travel to NYC, I'd like to try. :) munchies should do a series on special restaurants like this in the US!
I tried Lagman first when I went to Cheburechnya in Queens. Now I definitely need to try Lagman House! What an awesome video. I hope this family gets lots of business moving forward. Living the American dream.
I just adore this story, I had to watch this video because the food looked so good. I didn't know I would get such a good story behind it! I'm from NY so I can't wait for the next time I go to Brooklyn, I would love to try this food. I know that these times are hard right about now with this pandemic we are going through . I hope they are doing well.
Beside the best foods they have ,what a beautiful wiseness comes up from this young gentleman when it come to explain the origins and the genealogical tree from where they originated.....Thank you very much for sharing this video who targeted many things at the time ...food ...people ....and history....it just BEAUTIFUL
It’s complicated. It appears to be a mix of Muslim, Russian, and Northern Chinese. There are so many different Chinese cuisines and ethnic groups. Hard to lump them together. For an example, I’m of Taishanese (southern China) descent and we mostly eat rice dishes, with less spices. And our noodles are mostly rice based. Northern China seems to have more wheat noodle dishes.
Rick R not just find it. It’s nearly one on every street in mainland China the beef noodle soup is the most popular hang over food after you eat a bowl of that your headache goes down. I would probably say it’s as popular as beef pho in America
@@Ladeliciadelinda Lagman has nothing to do with Russian cuisine. It's a typical Central Asian dish all Central Asians love and know, but Russians in Russia don't know it and don't know how to cook it
Din’t know about Dungan cuisine before, loved the fact that a family is staying together despite all the hardships and filling in for each other, and it is wholesome to see such passion to keep their food and culture alive, and pass it on too :) Looking forward to savour Lagman at the next best opportunity!
Because no such thing exists ? Cos she is trying to "sell it".. It is Northern Chinese cuisine and noodles. With some pickled vegetables. Northern Chinese citizens tend to eat noodles. Southern, tend to eat rice. And Northern "Chinese" were really Mongolian, and Tibetan I think. Mongolian was an actual real dynasty. Southern Chinese were really more farmers, and rural land villagers... Two groups of people created "China"... I think the dynastic model, came from the West China.... ( I would say, maybe Greek or something..)
@min min : If you look up Xia... the location of the "North" is nowhere near modern day "mongolian" boundary. Please check your facts. Just using the word "North", can allow you to erode an entire nation or an entire civilisation ? How rich and appropiate !!! This is what starts wars in the first place !!! And some people stand back... and help when there is a favour back to them. US is also indirectly helping the CCPs... to get rid of their enemies.. It is rich to see how different people perceive things... Cos right now, most chinese media will show that, the CCP is acting like a "defender" of the country, when in reality, the previous wars were also instigated from inside the country !
@min min : Many of these people are not Northern Chinese, do you realise this ? They were intermingle with Mongolia... and the likes of Gengkis Khan... actually allowed a lot of the North to be captured. This is why, even in the West, there are also muslims as well. Muslim is not part of the Chinese heritage, is it ??? This is why North.. near North Korea, broke off... and formed Korea, and then the civil war split South and North together. Same with Japan... This is why Japan.. I forgot which region, split off, and then they just decided to protect their own family tree or dynasty.. and it went on from there. The fact, that, you can no longer call a lot of people "Northern Chinese", cos they are already mixed race... is what is causing a lot of heartaches, across the entire country. Do you , and would you mix, with the descendents of those who killed off your family tree, before, in previous generation ? Who would do that ???? Nobody. No foreign countries would do that either. I will recheck my history of the North... but no way, is the current situation bearable, OR acceptable !! This is NOT acceptable ! If the current set of governments in power, is going to jepodize the country again... This time... Southern chinese will also not be so forgiving, and the country is definitely going to draw a line, and be split finally. Cos it seems to me that, the North cannot control their interactions with Russia, and cannot even deal with Tibet either... and boundary creep... again and again... and inter-mix the people, for the sake of capitalism. Enough is enough. The enemies are already within the country.. and it is a matter of time, that the last remnants.. of any "chinese" is dead in this country.
This is so awesome! I can't believe I didn't know about Lagman House! I am Kazakh. Growing up, I used to watch my mom making lagman just like the mom in the video! Ahhh the memories... Thank you for making this video. I need to migrate into BK more often! :)
What a great video portraying this restaurant, the family and their hard work and heritage. I hope to try their food one day. I’m sure all of their dishes are created with love, and this is the best ever!
Обожаю дунганскую кухню! я на ней +10 кг набрала, когда впервые начала есть ее в Китае. Хоть уже вернула свой вес, но не откажусь от настоящего дунганского лагмана даже ночью.
As a product of 1st generation immigrants, my parents too ran a small business deli and it takes me back when I would be a cashier during breaks when I was in middle school and high school. This hits home. I hope nothing but blessings for the Lagman House family!
When I was in shenzhen for a couple of months, there was this muslim restaurant and it was one of my favourite places to eat even tho it was quite cheap. They made what were like the perfect noodles to me.
It’s great that delicious Dungan food is available in NYC, hope it’ll skyrocket and get the hype it deserves all across the US. I myself eat lagman minimum once a week because it is something that you always want ;)) greetings from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Amazing immigrant family with amazing values. I have nothing but respect for them. The way the mom, a pharmacist by trade from KZ, make the fresh noodles is very unique. I wonder if they can create a window by the front of the restaurant to show how they make the fresh noodles, similar to Din Tai Fung restaurant where they make fresh dumplings, showcased in a glass window area at the front of the restaurant as part of their marketing. This could be cost-prohibited for this family business, but at the same time it may attract a lot of new customers curious about the food. We will definitely try their food with our next trip to New York.
In many of the Central Asian states Dungan restaurants are some of the most popular places to eat. Unfortunately there were some ethnic clashes with Kazakhs some months back. Love Dungan culture and food! Peace to Central Asia!
❤️❤️❤️ I’m going to visit this spot ASAP!!! Thanks for sharing this video Munchies. Also loved the shout-out to JMart in Flushing. This represents the best of NYC ❤️
fun fact in Scandinavia "Lagman" is a job title for the chairman of the various departments of the courts of appeal and of the courts of appeal, its a very old name was first used in the viking age. In the viking age Lagman duty was also to safeguard the rights and liberties of the people and to speak in their behalf to the king or his representative.
I was there a couple of years ego good food. I am from Uzbekistan so the food is different a little. There was a rude Tatar lady there telling the staff the lagman was not correct. If you like Uzbek food you will like this also. Its different though.
This looks incredibly similar to food served by the hui minority in North East China, Gansu province. The food looks delicious. I hope I can stop by sometime. Thank you for sharing
Thank u for sharing your culture with me. I'm going to go right now and read more about it, and of course watch plenty of Dugan culinary videos because I like to be filled in on a culture, but there's nothing better than being full on a culture.
What a beautiful family! May you continue prospering and hopefully, all your hard work gets paid off. Love seeing hard working immigrants making American dream come true! Only here it’s still possible 🙏🏻 Can’t wait to try my beloved lagman 😎

Probably won't,.as NYC is being increasingly hostile to folks who look Asian
Help there gofundme.

The immigrant story of America and how fast the generations assimilate.
and how sad that they were assimilated by russians once, they are so unique and have nothing in common with rus
The current government does not want immigrants, they just want KFC and Burger King all the way every day hahaha
@JP Angeles English with an ACCENT. Not, English with an ENGLISH accent.

Northern China seems to have more wheat noodle dishes.
Rick R not just find it. It’s nearly one on every street in mainland China the beef noodle soup is the most popular hang over food after you eat a bowl of that your headache goes down. I would probably say it’s as popular as beef pho in America
@@Ladeliciadelinda Lagman has nothing to do with Russian cuisine. It's a typical Central Asian dish all Central Asians love and know, but Russians in Russia don't know it and don't know how to cook it
I really hope they are doing well, they are such amazing people. We need more like them
My head is spinning: they're of mainly Han Chinese ancestry but with distant Arab/Persian blood and they speak Russian .
I hope they are successful for a very long time. The work ethic of this family really resonated with me.
Pray your family becomes strong in love and your business does successfully....from california
Din’t know about Dungan cuisine before, loved the fact that a family is staying together despite all the hardships and filling in for each other, and it is wholesome to see such passion to keep their food and culture alive, and pass it on too :)
Looking forward to savour Lagman at the next best opportunity!
Because no such thing exists ? Cos she is trying to "sell it".. It is Northern Chinese cuisine and noodles. With some pickled vegetables. Northern Chinese citizens tend to eat noodles. Southern, tend to eat rice. And Northern "Chinese" were really Mongolian, and Tibetan I think. Mongolian was an actual real dynasty. Southern Chinese were really more farmers, and rural land villagers... Two groups of people created "China"... I think the dynastic model, came from the West China.... ( I would say, maybe Greek or something..)
@min min : If you look up Xia... the location of the "North" is nowhere near modern day "mongolian" boundary. Please check your facts. Just using the word "North", can allow you to erode an entire nation or an entire civilisation ? How rich and appropiate !!! This is what starts wars in the first place !!! And some people stand back... and help when there is a favour back to them. US is also indirectly helping the CCPs... to get rid of their enemies.. It is rich to see how different people perceive things... Cos right now, most chinese media will show that, the CCP is acting like a "defender" of the country, when in reality, the previous wars were also instigated from inside the country !
@min min : Many of these people are not Northern Chinese, do you realise this ? They were intermingle with Mongolia... and the likes of Gengkis Khan... actually allowed a lot of the North to be captured. This is why, even in the West, there are also muslims as well. Muslim is not part of the Chinese heritage, is it ??? This is why North.. near North Korea, broke off... and formed Korea, and then the civil war split South and North together. Same with Japan... This is why Japan.. I forgot which region, split off, and then they just decided to protect their own family tree or dynasty.. and it went on from there. The fact, that, you can no longer call a lot of people "Northern Chinese", cos they are already mixed race... is what is causing a lot of heartaches, across the entire country. Do you , and would you mix, with the descendents of those who killed off your family tree, before, in previous generation ? Who would do that ???? Nobody. No foreign countries would do that either. I will recheck my history of the North... but no way, is the current situation bearable, OR acceptable !! This is NOT acceptable ! If the current set of governments in power, is going to jepodize the country again... This time... Southern chinese will also not be so forgiving, and the country is definitely going to draw a line, and be split finally. Cos it seems to me that, the North cannot control their interactions with Russia, and cannot even deal with Tibet either... and boundary creep... again and again... and inter-mix the people, for the sake of capitalism. Enough is enough. The enemies are already within the country.. and it is a matter of time, that the last remnants.. of any "chinese" is dead in this country.
This is so awesome! I can't believe I didn't know about Lagman House! I am Kazakh. Growing up, I used to watch my mom making lagman just like the mom in the video! Ahhh the memories... Thank you for making this video. I need to migrate into BK more often! :)
What a great video portraying this restaurant, the family and their hard work and heritage. I hope to try their food one day. I’m sure all of their dishes are created with love, and this is the best ever!
Обожаю дунганскую кухню! я на ней +10 кг набрала, когда впервые начала есть ее в Китае. Хоть уже вернула свой вес, но не откажусь от настоящего дунганского лагмана даже ночью.
Thanks for sharing this story with us. Definitely going to check them out real soon. What a lovely family, living the American dream!
As a product of 1st generation immigrants, my parents too ran a small business deli and it takes me back when I would be a cashier during breaks when I was in middle school and high school. This hits home. I hope nothing but blessings for the Lagman House family!
Wow this was great to see, I never heard of this culture before. Their unity as a family is beautiful.
When I was in shenzhen for a couple of months, there was this muslim restaurant and it was one of my favourite places to eat even tho it was quite cheap. They made what were like the perfect noodles to me.
Lovely, lovely family. I believe their Muslims too? So loving and hardworking xx I wish them all the success in life
Mikey Chen totally needs to visit this place sometime when he’s over in New York!
If he been to mainland China he would have already tasted it. It’s on every street in China
hamster1 I tried this place and it may resemble food from certain parts of China, but the taste is definitely unique. Mikey would like this place.
It’s great that delicious Dungan food is available in NYC, hope it’ll skyrocket and get the hype it deserves all across the US. I myself eat lagman minimum once a week because it is something that you always want ;)) greetings from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿
Damn this is so cool! I've heard a bit about their culture but I never got an inside view. So neat!
Their food looks amazing! Hope they’re doing well at times like this
Удачи и процветания вам .так держать.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻💪💪💪

They just entered my go-to list once I am back to NYC.
Amazing story, what a wonderful mix of cultures and foods!!
Much respect and love to them.
I also grew up in restaurant immigrant family, we too had to do everything together.
As someone who lives in Kyrgyzstan it's nice to see people of the same culture achieving something in the U.S.
Wish them all success
Best of luck to you guys! Next time I am in NYC, I will definitely check this place out
Glad to see they get some exposure,i went there last year while i was in the neighborhood,good food and service.
this cuisine is everything! What a beautiful family!
Such a nice and inspiring story. Hope this family and their business have weathered the Covid storm in NYC.
Thank you for sharing this piece, as I learned so much from the first 7 minutes. Appreciations to you...
Amazing immigrant family with amazing values. I have nothing but respect for them.
The way the mom, a pharmacist by trade from KZ, make the fresh noodles is very unique. I wonder if they can create a window by the front of the restaurant to show how they make the fresh noodles, similar to Din Tai Fung restaurant where they make fresh dumplings, showcased in a glass window area at the front of the restaurant as part of their marketing. This could be cost-prohibited for this family business, but at the same time it may attract a lot of new customers curious about the food.
We will definitely try their food with our next trip to New York.
I love to learn more cultures and foods from different places. This is very knowledgeable. 😊
In many of the Central Asian states Dungan restaurants are some of the most popular places to eat. Unfortunately there were some ethnic clashes with Kazakhs some months back. Love Dungan culture and food! Peace to Central Asia!
@Daisy Wong are you a nationalist? Seems like all your comments tend to be super pro China ... nothing wrong with that...
Bums me out that they closed. Looks like for good. Wanted to go out of my way to try this place when I could travel back to the northeast.
❤️❤️❤️ I’m going to visit this spot ASAP!!! Thanks for sharing this video Munchies.
Also loved the shout-out to JMart in Flushing.
This represents the best of NYC ❤️
I wish they survive these difficult times. All the best to this family.
fun fact in Scandinavia "Lagman" is a job title for the chairman of the various departments of the courts of appeal and of the courts of appeal, its a very old name was first used in the viking age. In the viking age Lagman duty was also to safeguard the rights and liberties of the people and to speak in their behalf to the king or his representative.
Wow, never knew that!
such a beautiful family. Bless their hearts.
I was there a couple of years ego good food. I am from Uzbekistan so the food is different a little. There was a rude Tatar lady there telling the staff the lagman was not correct. If you like Uzbek food you will like this also. Its different though.
Приеду на следующей неделе в НЮ и заеду попробую обязательно ❤️
This looks incredibly similar to food served by the hui minority in North East China, Gansu province. The food looks delicious. I hope I can stop by sometime. Thank you for sharing
North-West you mean cuz North-East would be Lianoning, Jilin and Heilongjiang
@@amurleopard5466 yes, I meant north west, my mistake 😄
@@fictionalfinesse no problem. Mistakes can happen 😅✌
They are hui
Hui and Han are related right?
Absolutely beautiful family. The food looks amazing too!!!
Privet! We have hella Russian speakers in the Bay too.
Love from San Francisco, California.
yes, in Richmond (Clement, Balboa) but I don't recall seeing Dungan food in the city.
This looks delicious! Such a beautiful story of love and family. Please know that you are welcome here.
Americans with roots. I wish them success and wealth.
Y'ALL are a strong GOOD family
Thank u for sharing your culture with me. I'm going to go right now and read more about it, and of course watch plenty of Dugan culinary videos because I like to be filled in on a culture, but there's nothing better than being full on a culture.
Respect to this family of hard workers
What a wonderful family and food. I wish them success in their business. Next time I’m in new York, you bet I will be going!!!
Beautiful family with a great story! That little girl is so precious!
Very interesting! I will visit your restaurant soon to try your food. Never heard of the Dungan culture. And what a lovely family you have.
What a beautiful family! May you continue prospering and hopefully, all your hard work gets paid off. Love seeing hard working immigrants making American dream come true! Only here it’s still possible 🙏🏻 Can’t wait to try my beloved lagman 😎
That's look just like Gansu and Shaanxi provinces' food, since Dungan people is from those two provinces. Even the steam bun at 01:47 looks like 花卷.
Family is everything! Can't wait to try out their cuisine soon!
Молодцы! Желаю вам успехов :)
