Well maybe if the food is actually good. But if he does that for one business then others will complain if he doesn't do it for them, so may as well forget about it.
I love how when he stumbles over words some time the people are patient with him and even help him get the words out. So wholesome and amazing. I hope to learn so many languages like him.

I came here from the "THIS is the BEST Rated Chinese Restaurant in NYC?! " video, and only realized it was the same place and it was Sue when the awning with the restaurant name was shown.
Watching this channel has be so inspiring! I like to learn basic phrases in different languages because I’m Native American coming from a tribe/reservation with only a small amount of fluent speaker left it makes me feel happy to learn! Communicating and learning different languages makes me feel better about how much my culture and traditions have died. It truly is a blessing and privilege to learn and speak native languages with people across the world. This gives me so much motivation to keep learning about different cultures and their native language! Much love, thank you for sharing!
The people in the first restaurant were so smart. They spent $20-$30 to get a shoutout to 4 million people. Not just him eating there. Him telling people to buy food.
What I love most about these videos is that it demonstrates how people will respect you if you simply make an effort to learn something about their culture. I learned American Sign Language in college just so I could communicate with someone deaf, even if it meant using it for a brief conversation. It's a good feeling trying to make that effort.
I full on support you dude! This is literally the best way to make money. You’re just talking to people in their language and getting their reactions. There’s no hate, no competition for views like “who’s the best UA-camr” or “let’s see different UA-camrs do the same stuff and see which one we like” kind of views. Dude is just walking around speaking different languages and records it for a living. Need more people like you ! Continue what you do!
Vibe I get so far is that so few people speak Chinese Dialects outside of China that the fact someone speaks one and isn't some flavor of Asian or Chinese is like seeing Bigfoot walk in and bro-fist you and ask for a cup of coffee.
These videos are awesome. More people need to see genuine people of all cultures. So many times nowadays people judge a whole culture by the bad acts of a few. These videos help bridge the gap and show that there are really nice people in all cultures. 👏👏👏👏
You inspire me man. You connect with people and are able to have conversations with them in their native language which allows them to open up and that’s so cool to me. I’m thinking about trying to learn a new language
Ahh this made my day! I am an American who speaks Swedish and sometimes I get to do a similar thing if I run into Swedes at the IKEA near my house :). Thank you for these cheerful videos :)

Regardless, I love everyone and was super happy at the end when you said you donate a lot of food. Keep up the great work.
I wish I could do that. I used to work at a Chinese restaurant years ago and always wondered what they were saying. Then they asked me to go to China one day and I went. I got to the airport in Hong Kong and had to find a policeman with a red patch on his uniform: that indicated they spoke English. I think you are amazing. Great video!
I met a black man in GuangZhou airport several years ago, he was helping his black friend to check it. When the moment he spoke, OMG, so perfect his mandarin is! Even with a beautiful broadcast accent, no Beijing accent, no southern accent, exactly the same with TV! the same shocked staff said"his mandarin is better than 99% native Chinese". Really curious about that man's identify, I guess maybe he's kind of diplomatic staff.
