    The fact that June saved her food for later says everything. She makes all food exciting and appealing. And I love how she interacts with wait staff and respects cultures as she dispenses her knowledge and expertise on cuisine

      @chillpill19 Рік тому +31

      100% agree. So many people seem to act like all knowing informants, like THIS is what/where you need to go. I love the exploration aspect and saving the food in her own containers (esp the chips cause people don't often think of that)

I certainly don't eat anything that isn't humanely raised. And everyone has preferences don't they? Is there something you wouldn't eat? I don't know I doubt that I'm ever going to eat a pig ear ever since I don't even eat pork

    As a Queens almost native (like most of Queens, an immigrant) I tried to have a phone conversation while the 7 train was passing above and it was futile. Also, I had the exact same experience eating a jalapeño at the same restaurant thinking the roasting would have killed some of the spice… big mistake🥵😓😰
    When in Queens, you know you are at a good place when the staff speaks very little English (or heavenly accented), they only accept cash, and you are the only one in the restaurant that’s not for their country. Go Queens!!! Woohoo!

    Very nice episode. I also love how everyone else gets to eat, too. So different to the shows in which the host just teased or even "jokingly" abused his (mostly male hosts) team back in the day.
    Now we need an episode on working with the leftovers of eating out and how far these 50$ can stretch with little additions like rice or a fried egg. 🥰

    I was born in Transylvania and one of my earliest four memories is being given pig ear as a snack by my dad when he and my uncle butchered a pig together. It was sort of grilled. It was delicious. I still love the texture or gelatinous and crunch of cartilage but don’t enjoy the Chinese version so much because it’s missing that smoky char flavour of my first pigs ear. Growing up in Germany & Australia I wouldn’t have ever shared that memory with friends - as no one could relate. I’m loving the fact that UA-cam lets us find these little quirky commonalities between cuisines.

    - Arepa Lady in Jackson Heights, arepas de choclo with carne desmechada
    - 969 NYC Coffee in Jackson Heights, for onigirazu

    The sauce served with sel roti at the Nepalese place was tomato chutney (tomatoes, green chillies, cilantro blended together with salt) and the barfi you ate was likely "besan barfi" made of roasted chickpea flour and milk which what gave it that color, pure milk barfis are white in color.

    I would love to see a Budget Drinks! Not necessarily alcoholic or anything, just various delicious drinks that can be had from places.

    I lived in Queens for around 25 years of my life (broken up by an interlude overseas and upstate), and moved away last year. You make me miss it so much....
