John Leguizamo explores New York’s iconic bodegas

- John Leguizamo unearths the hidden history of a New York urban institution. The bodega, whose name originates from the Spanish word for “storeroom,” took off in the late 1940s after Latino immigrants recognized the need for products that were authentic to their culture. “Bodegas filled your belly and your heart,” Leguizamo says, adding, “If you’re from New York City, there’s only one place you’re getting half a gallon of milk and a lottery ticket at 2 a.m.”

I saw the entire series on MSNBC and go back for many restarts ...I grew up in (Forest Hills, Queens, N.Y. 5 mins from JHeights, also lived in MIA 10 yrs of my life, San Juan for 3 yrs ..and now in L.A. (Babylon) anyway...This series is great ...BIG UP🙋🏻♀🗽Mr Leguizamo 💚💙
He’s a good little breakfast taco 😊
Yes, Sir, I love our beautiful country and all the different cultures!!!! That surrounds the city's and town's
I really enjoyed this Episode & look forward to the remaining 5 EPS, & perhaps more later?! :0)
In Costarica, the bodega stores are called pulperias. Only way to get some eggs, powdered milk, plantains, sausage and coffee beans was at a pulperia.
Small mom and pop bodegas is the heart of all latin America
Loved this! Warmed my heart
Gracias!
Beautiful!❤
I miss the Puerto Rican🇵🇷 owned Bodegas, cause it was like visiting family.🫶
Dominicans...always following ...Ricans🙄🤣
Thanks John!
I remembered Delancey street with Jewish people selling pickles from barrels ... the original storefront ... the original immigrant who started storefront grocery stores
I was born and raised in Williamsburg, Brooklyn 70 years ago (left in 1974). The neighborhood was all PRs, Jews, Poles and Italians. My family is of Franco Spanish descent. Puerto Rican bodegas were everywhere in the neighborhood. Every PR that came from the island with money would put one up and did well. When I hear the term Bodega now owned by anyone not PR, and not just a grocery store anymore it seems strange. Funny thing is that I have vacationed in PR many times and have never seen a local grocery store called a Bodega there by the locals. They're called "Colmados".
Uyyy, qué belleza.
Yo soy nacido mexicano, raised a bit in Texas and most all my life in Florida, since the late 80's.
My family would go shopping for our Mexican specialties at the "tiendas de cubanos".
This was way before Wal-Mart started carrying our food.
We've also rented Mexican movies there.
I've known many LATAM cultures. From new arrivals, to pochos and US born (chicanos), it's been a riot.
Saludos mexicanos (American, también) from Florida, y'all.
¡Viva México! 🇲🇽
Great show instant sub..
I watched this episode of his documentary and it is really informative..😃 If anyone can find a place that can make a chopped cheese sandwich, it will be worth it..😊
2:08 "Chopped cheese!" Looks delicious.
Where are the Bodega cats?
Basement, once lights go out cat goes straight to bed...I mean bread.
Dr. Jildo thanks you for not mentioning Joe's dementia.
❤🇵🇷 Orgullo
Que chingon carnal saludos desde Marin County eres mi idolo bro!!
Jose Alba would have a different opinion of NYC bodegas.
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
yup
Leguizamo for President!!!
Vote por El ,quick.
that sandwich looks good!
I remember my Boricua friends moved to Texas and they asked..."Where the Bodegas"?? Never heard of it 🤷🏻♂️ but do explain please. Lol
Leguizamo is BEGGING you to like him
I used to...until this racial divide 🗑.
More of this and a lot less
of the former guy. Good story
Thank you
Wepa! 🇵🇷🔥
pssssst.. during pandemic (2yrs)NY state made 200 million from lottery, wonder where that money came from & who?
Yes please I LIKED it TOO 😅
Better than a Philly I don't know about that
Oh IC some of you magas watched it too! How WONDERFUL! Well, keep watching, you just might learn something? and to even care about them!
A guy that walks the streets with armed security
Exactly
IF true? its just Proof of just how rabid the goop are! they are the ones who killed people on J6 & many others!
That's not true in my experience. John Leguizamo got into a cab with me by accident one time 20 years ago when he was way more famous. This was at 3 am in lower Manhattan. He didn't have security. He was by himself and rode with me until I got out at my stop and he paid for the cab. Super nice dude.
He’s a celebrity filming a show lol. John good in nyc u buggin out. He’s not Seth Rogan lol. U must be born in the 00 or not from the culture
Only when he goes to Republican congressional districts.
Or we dance while eating ❤
John spitting hate keep it up.
This video confused me. Having travelled extensively both in Spain and across many Spanish-speaking countries, I was expecting a tourist video of vinyards and wine cellars. Instead I was shown las tiendas de conveniencia! 🤔
Ah, the difference between Castilian Spanish and Latin Spanish lol
@@ladypoetessactually, wineries are also called bodegas in Argentina.
Los Mini Super en el norte de México
Hey! It's the violator.
Tours Chicago Mexican that word is funny because and our culture in our Spanish a bodega is a warehouse what we call store we literally save the Spanish word for tienda
$6 trillion to Ukraine
😳🤳
God Bless Ukraine 🇺🇸🇺🇦
Leguizamo is Colombian.
Nothing on the shooting in Alabama I wonder why.
Fox News didn't talk about it either. I wonder why???
Or Biloxi, Louisville, Memphis or the 32 shot and 8 dead in Chicago. I'm guessing black lives don't matter unless a policeman is involved.
@@jameswatson5304 obviously you haven’t watched.
Because they have.
And looks like black lives don’t matter to msnbc since those shoot were black kids.
By a black shooter
Another right wing lunatic.
@@jameswatson5304 that's odd because that's where I heard the story from maybe you shouldn't be lying so much
Why was Jackson heights not a " easy place to grow up " ? What a BS drama queen Leguizamo is .Jackson heights was a good neighborhood when he grew up there
Johnny Legs, I freaking adore you but sorry, y'all didn't give us Italians the tomato🍅 or zucchini. 😉. Of course Latins made some delicious foods with them...but so did we. 🤌
What he means is that they originated in the Americas. So until Europeans came to the Americas, Italians were not cooking with them. Same goes for pumpkins, potatoes, tobacco, Etc
Am not gonna take sides when it comes to food😂
Italians have some of the most amazing food, but the tomato didn’t arrive to Italy until after the mid 1500’s from Central America. It’s was part of the food items brought over to Europe from the first trips after the “discovery” of the Americas.
John, thinks Philadelphians actually care about cheesesteaks. Not really. Tourists care, we don't.
Thanks for your continuous love and support. ❤️
For how long have you been a fan of mine?
Are they I. Food desrts
do they sell breakfast tacos? - Jill biden
Dr. Jildo thanks you for not mentioning Joe's dementia.
😂😂
Lol hes not Puerto Rican, even his family said he Colombian with European roots. I dont know why he keeps trying to be Puerto Rican 😂
Now they invented tomato’s ?
They come originally from South America, so the answer is yes.
As he said, avocados did as well. Also, potatoes, and pumpkin, tobacco, Etc
“With regard to food shortages. Yes, we did talk about food shortages. And, and it’s gonna be real.” said Biden
“The price of the sanctions is not just imposed upon Russia. It’s imposed upon an awful lot of countries as well. Including European countries and our country as well,” continued Biden
🤔
Hes literally the dumbest man on earth. The world laughs at America because of Slow Joe.
New york us looking rough. Democrats have beaten that once great city down into what it is now
It's refreshing to be able to experience the incredibly diverse Latino community unlike that of the African-American community which lacks diversity.
😂😂😂😂, it’s obvious you Third World immigrants do not know any real black Americans 😂
Y’all most likely think all black Americans live in nyc 😂😂
majority of black Americans live in the USA south
I’m confident you never even realize that black Americans are more complex then any ethnic group in the world all 50 million of us!! From the Gullah geechee in low country South Carolina who speak a whole different language to the Louisiana/Mississippi/coastal Alabama creoles who have their own language etc each small, southern black town within the various majority black counties across the south, have their own culture own food quite literally
if anything Latinos/non black Americans (descendants of USA chattel slavery) don’t even have a real culture besides running away from there homelands
you know this how?
No other community is more diverse than the Black American community, stop it.🤔
@Rashawn Waiters he's quoting Biden.
@@rudybrooks3722 I'm not the one who said it. It was Joe Biden, you know, the same guy that told black people they ain't black unless they're for him.
"Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly diverse attitudes about different things"
