    I'm glad you did this. Most UA-camrs that visit Boston go to the North End. Not that there is anything wrong with the North End or Italian food, but as a Boston native, Chinatown is one of my favorite place to go for food. Especially the bakeries.

    You should go to Quincy MA also, there are a lot of great Chinese restaurants and a big Asian population

    The food in Boston was always great and so affordable. I didn’t touch any chain food for the few years I lived there and there is so much variety!

    Hello I had had shown May Cake House to my friend. We were hanging out here for an hour also. Been to My Thai Vegan Cafe with friends. Please tried the Dragon's Eye fruit at the push carts or the supermarkets. Don't forget Eldo Cake House and the ridiculous butter rolls. I was hilarious when my friends.

    Great video. Thinking of visiting in a couple weeks. I'm looking for a more quiet restaurant in Chinatown for a small family to just relax after a long day of sightseeing. Hopefully with a decent clean bathroom too. For reference, we're Chinese Americans from NYC and we are cool with all cuisines. Can you take the time to help us out?

      My family personally likes Kaze Shabu Shabu! Make sure to ask to sit upstairs if you go. It has a very clean bathroom.

    Bruh I watched this video and got hungry af and I went to freakin uhhh Ding Ho fast food that place was really good tho it sucked that I had to go to an ATM to get cash out cause shit's windy in Boston but it was worth the 3 dollar bowl of Lo Mein and chicken with curry sauce and potatoes I got. Probably gonna go to Chinatown for more than just boba tea and food at the occasional somewhat pricey restaurant now, thanks!

    I'm so sad that Saigon Sandwich is no more. The arc of the real estate in the neighborhood combined with the lockdowns were tough for the little independent places.

    Anyone who attended college in Boston circa 1980 to 2000 will automatically know what I’m talking about ….Moi snd Shu…. Golden Gate restaurant…. B an R mushroom and onion…. Probably the single greatest dish ever created …. Since the closing of the Golden Gate I have spent the better part of the last 20 years trying to obtain the recipe…. But alas I’m afraid it’s gone forever

    Just visited the China Town. Actually I lived Haytt hotel around the corner. Being a native Chinese, I would say that all these restaurants would not survive one day anywhere inside Chinese mainland. No good. I think the reason is that US immigration authorities do not allow H1B visa for real Chinese Chef. The 'chef' in China Town are all self-taught.

    She shows more asian-centric, weight-conscious dishes, not what "typical americans" want to eat, like meat things. Looks like she chose more vegetarian and/or tofu stuff. To be a more-viewed video, should definitely show other dishes (with meat)...or show vegetarian AND meat-lovers dishes. Seems more one-sided towards vegetarianism.
