Best Cheap Eat In NYC's Chinatown With Strictly Dumpling | Legendary Eats
We know if Mike was by himself, he would finished all three dishes and then get dessert. 😂😂🤣
easily
He would dip the dessert in some broth first. lol
And he would go for another round in another destination
He actually did in one of his Strictly Dumping episodes. He actually had four.
Best comment ive seen in a while xD Big ups from Denmark
NO PLEASE THERES ALREADY A LINE EVERY DAY. THEY DONT NEED ANYMORE PUBLICITY
JUST LET ME EAT 😭
Don't worry theres only 800k people in the line.
My thoughts exactly lol
JustanAmateur when she said she would buy it if they charged more and my cheap ass is like NOOOOOOOOO!!!! 😂
Well I don't think they'll bare have 1 person now
Price went up
That guy looks a lot like Mike Chen
XD even though the joke wasn't that funny
No that’s Strictly Dumpling
Yes Justin, It's Mike Chen from Strictly Dumpling!
It is mike
I see u everywhere u faker
Mickey chen is a legend him self so humble and his vocab is on a different level when it comes to food
Man I feel like a third wheel every time these two collaborate.
mugensamurai same dude
They're both married to other people
@@flakgun153 no they’re not
Yes! Mikey Chen finally getting the screen attention he deserves!
Hippoge
What???!!
He has two successful ass channels, at least 1mill subs.
This channel is nothing compared to his content.
More like they are getting screen time.
That's true, but I've never seen him featured on a larger stage with a news reporting channel.
He’s featured her on his channel many times
what are you talking about.... he got like 3 million subs............ this channel only 0,7 ....xD the profit is more for food insider
btw he doesnt only do food.. i knew him first from his channel 'beyond science'
Sorry y'all, I watched him years ago when it was him and Dan so I didn't know he had become so popular in the last few years.
When Mike fed her the duck...just pure "awwwwww"
Fed her the bat ? Ohhhh sorry duck ...
change one letter in duck to i and it becomes magical.
Can claim what Mike said is true! There is always a line out the door rain or shine. Although everyone say they are there for the cheap price, trust me the food there, especially roast meats, particularly the "char-siu" or roast pork, are ridiculously delicious, there is nothing that I've tried in the rest of the city that can come close to how good it tastes. I remembered it closed for a while because of renovations and I was afraid that we the locals will lose this delicious gem. As far as I know it's a small family-owned business and is run by only a handful of people, so I love going there. If you are ever in New York City Chinatown, please go check it out! I can guarantee you will not regret standing in line.
I'm sure it is true people are there because of the food. If the food wasn't very good no one would care about the cheap price. Lines like they showed only happen when the food is good.
I mean the rice could be be better but lets be honest, people go for the pork which they sell by the pound also
To be completely fair, the char-siu is just as good in most other Cantonese joints in Chinatown and in Sunset Park. It’s just cheap here.
It is not the cheap price. It is the quality. The sausage is even better. I am getting on a plane just to stop by. I hope they are open.
Henry Hill I don’t think they even have sausage.
It used to be 3 dollar and 50 cents for the small one and trust me if you ever go to NYC China Town you have to try this place. The owner is very generous about the meat he will fill the box until it's literally un fillable. The sauce he puts on the rice is not salty or oily. The only few problems are you have to wait in line for at least 10 to 15 minutes and you can forget about it during lunch/dinner rush hours, also that place have no seating, it's tiny but you won't miss it
LOVE THIS COLLAB!!! totally made my day :)
Look at the way he's cutting meat. So yummy.
And soooo Covid
@@mctapoutos7426 this is 2 years ago dumbass
@@skyejamss Your dad is not here why you calling his name ?
@@mctapoutos7426 Wow, that was extremely hilarious. Bravo, bravo, where did you came up with that joke?
@@skyejamss thank you my man I trying my best 😂 I think I got it from a "MASTER" of comedy Joe "I'm on Spotify for free " Rogan . Look dude I bet they struggling or trying their best with take away and good for them I'm just saying food was bad and I think everyone can express their own opinion . I'm sure you dad is a noble dude .
It's 10am and now I'm craving Chinese food
Your Neighbor Amos they open at 10
@Elizabeth Tikoisuva OMG like everywhere!!
@Elizabeth Tikoisuva they're the same person just a different acc 😂😂😂
Same shit
The meat is bad tho Can you imagine ? How can they afford to sell it so cheap
I've been eating there since that picture of Mickey Rourke went up. That duck gravy is delicious. No matter what you eat, it is delicious. These guys can move huge lines every day. Yes, without a doubt, they are the undisputed Kings of Chinese food.
I wondered what the sauce was at the end. Answered my question, thanks
Oh That's Soo True: When you question whether its even enough food then after a few bites you get full... Never Underestimate Small Portion sizes.
they put in the baking soda rice, so you can have a few bites and be already full, and it also makes the rice shine, so you can get rice from the previous day, add baking soda, and it’s like the day. I I worked in restaurants, I know how it is, nothing is wasted. today's steak is the minced meat with sauce tomorrow.
I like it when different street food personality's do shows together. These are 2 of my favorites.
Im a simple kind of girl, I see strictly dumpling in the title, I click.
Haha can't go wrong with a bit of strictly dumpling!
You need to taste my dumpling
Perverted fucks
Don't forget the Chow Siu Bows next door. That bakery is great.
Then you are a good girl
Who's here because of our Mike boy?
Ayeeee
Mike gang
Me. Favorite youtuber
I saw his own episode about this restaurant in Strictly Dumpling. He had four orders and it was disappointing he had to eat it inside the car.
Im here for the food
I love this place. The roast pig and roast pork! Love it. Get a large order with both for $8. Plus you’re in and you’re out. Definitely try it out if you’re in the area.
Roast bat its even better, finger LICKING good
@@mctapoutos7426 not funny
It’s the Jackie Chan man of food
Right was saying the same
And he does his own stunts too.
When I used to work in Chinatown many years ago this was a very convenient place for breakfast and lunch but the line wasn't that bad. Now it's been exposed to social media.
not finishing your meal...? what happened, Mikey? did you remove your second stomach now? :-D
clearly you didn't understand the ending of the video so I'll try my best to explain it quickly so they both went at eithers house and finished the meal but Mikey was still hungry so he ate her cat in the process.
M1C K-RASW lmao
M1C K-RASW 😂 😂 😂 😂
Mark Calvin Aprao She would taste like plastic
@@bamanara1044 lmao
Awww, don't tell me your bf is Mike Chen, Herrine. You said "We're going to take this to the car, and then finish this back at home". My dream is crushed, you are such a beautiful and classy lady. But I'll still watch your videos, it's so fun watching you eat Herrine.
Creepy
my boy MIKE making the moves!!! HELL YEA!!!
It's amazing how I always come here with my mom and now it on UA-cam!
One of food insider's most liked video because of mike chen 😂
he got his dumplings sucked that night
hahaha
Shit we don’t do, that right there
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👏👏😂👏😂😂👏😂😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏
😄😊😀
LMAO
3:47 that bird is about to steal a char siu
Well later on that bird is gonna be char siewed
@@GREGGFOWL bbq bird lol
That's not char siu you dumb pig, that's siu yuk. Char siu was the one the girl eating
@@razy996 no need to call people dumb,just correct them.
At the end of the video...
Herrine: "...we cannot finish this..."
Mikey: *who's we? .. Maybe you! I can finish this 3 and eat 2 slice of NY pizzas
😂😂😂
When I visited NYC this summer I went to this place. FREAKING AMAZING!!!!
THE MOST COMMON LAST NAME "CHEN "PLUS MOST COMMON ENGLISH NAME "MIKE" ....MADE THIS GUY SO COMMON
I just asked my local Chinese restaurant if they have char siu and he looked at me like how do you know about that and said no
BiG DaZe NYC 🤣🤣🤣
Look for a place that serves dim sum. If they have dim sum then they are Cantonese and most likely have char Siu and roast duck
😂😂😂
Here in California in the fifties my family used to go to a chinese restaurant called Chu's cafe, my father always ordered Char sui for an appetizer, that was in a small for California, 12,000 population city, this girl never had this food before, and she's pretending to be knowledgeable about good food?
and then they all clapped
3:45 that bird slowly coming near xD
I used to go here almost everyday for lunch during school in '04-'06. I'm so happy to know they're still in business👌🏽 the best
I've been to this place! I went to the US as a tourist from England a couple of years ago..... Stayed in Chinatown, and ate here regularly! Excellent value for money, and the food is really good too!
You certainly got your money worth.
Why does this video make me feel like a third wheel 😰
Why?
3:48 that bird is like lemme gets some of that.
4:40 she fell in love 😂😂
I feel like that girl is one of those amazing asian makeup transformations
It's crazy how much makeup women wear today. They call it whore paint for a reason.
tbh...
It is too much.
so mean
Mick Davis relax u fuckin 🤡
*I LOVE THIS GUY! HIS VIDS ARE ALL A MUST WATCH!*
Nah
The pork was literally my lunch all of high school! Hahahha I love that it’s featured
Does anyone else think that Herrine and Mike look like they would make a great couple? Lmao
shes one of those self-hating asian girls that dont date asian guys...she married a white guy
Mike Chen looks like a young clone of Jackie Chan
Dollar store Jackie Chan
"We could not finish this so we are going back to the car and finish the rest, back at home!"
Do you guys live together?
No, Mike lives a few hours outside of NYC while I'm sure Herrine is a city girl. Though Mike was talking about moving back over to the west coast again so who knows how long he will be in the NY area.
nanoflower1 He’s now in Seattle.
@ Houston. That’s where his new restaurant is. Dallas is a food wasteland.
@ I have. It’s Houston.
I’ll say it again and again, YOU’VE FOUND HER MIKE!!! Put a ring on this beautiful woman!! Haha. All love.
I wish the video was longer! Mike Chen is awesome
Not
Totally not surprised these two are eager to collab again.
3:45 bird on the table wanted some too
3:45 Woah! A bird magically teleported on the table!
You already sold it to me in the first 5 seconds! 😍
Herrine plus Mikey is always an awesome combo.
Best under $20 Date. On Business Insiders Tab, y'all!
3:29 Mike tilts his head back after taking a bite like the food touched his soul.
best date ever for mikey
If that girl wants another date, she better bring in the HOT CHILI OIL!
Ayyyy let's go it's mike from strictly dumpling
lets be honest now..... mike is legit falling in love with that girl... i mean usually u eat like 4 containers of that and now u cant even finish 3 ?
69 likes 😀
Its called sharing
@@user-oh6il6bm9p He fed her like a child 😳
Mike Chen's true love will always be food
The Chinese greens they serve is napa cabbage, the same veg used in kimchi. The guy who roasts the pig has to start at 5 am to make the prep for lunch service. When they sell it at $5 bucks, they're giving it away cheap. From what I can see, it's a high quality product. Mikey said so.
He didn't finish those up just so that he could invite her home.
Smart boi.
You have to try the sausage. The suckling pig is a seasonal option that you have to taste to believe. You can almost hear the suckling pig cry with each bite. Very tender and juicy. Try it, you will understand what I said.
Char sui is $12 per pound in atlanta.
My favorite meat ever!
While in malaysia its 1-2 us dollar...
Awww I love that i know exactly where they sat and ate the food lol. My dad's uncle operates a hair salon on that street! i've spent a lot of time on that playground as a kid lol
The popularity is raising the prices here. It was 2.50 a couple years ago.
I think inflation would also cause that too. There's a Vietnamese broken rice restaurant near me called 1.99 and the foods not 1.99 anymore.
@@ouranhshc100 cuz they would never make make money. But i hope its still reasonably priced 😀
@@talia5046 exactly, which is completely understandable. As long as the food is good and the portion keeps up for the price I'll keep giving them my business. I'll never understand people who will pay $20+ for a dish that is so measly small. Cheaper and bigger portion is better
@@ouranhshc100 yes exactly
inflation
In my town, Pontianak, Indonesia. The two types of pork are served in a menu, with "salted vegetables", slices cucumber, sauced chicked and egg, rice and special condensed broth. We call it " Nasi Campur". It only costs Rp. 25.000 ( 2 dollars). No other places sell it better than us in Pontianak 😁😁😁
one of our product also in instagram: @tazkezel
I live in NYC and work in midtown I'm goin to check this spot out
Ty silents d train to grand street
Weird flex but ok
@@tinkerbella4605 I went yesterday this my new spot I got to put people up on this I had the roasted pork it was so gooooooooooooooooooooooooooood
Just saved it on Google maps
Try Joes steamroll on canal .
It used to be $2.75 Any meat over ruce (Roast Chicken, Roast Duck, Roast Pig and Roast Pork. Now its $4.75 (for any chicken) $5.25 for Roast Pig and Duck) but you know what still a great price! Cant beat that plus its taste different and delicious.
“Tasted it and it changed my life”
YEAH he got covid after 😂
In Romania I can't even buy a pizza with under 10 dollars :)))
"Will this fill me up?"..............
Lots of protein and rice. I think it'll last for about 6 hours if you let it.
@@blupyxi5669 so pure XD
She knows what she meant 😂😂😂
This never gets old I been watching this wish m their.. I seen this a couple of years ago and wish I have it here in Guam U.S.A..

I can't handle watching this video while hungry.
0:22 who else noticed the guy in the back had the same thing mike had
2:57 you can see her excitement seeing the roast duck
from 4:35 the video project turned into romance lunch in the park
Eating these foods changed my life forever. After that i was never the same.
Lucky ducks we don't have Chinese food that good here in south Texas
I loved how Mike changed "China" to "Hong Kong" so as to not trigger anyone. Respect respect
Here in México, you can get the double of that with the same price
Will it be as good tho
Went there in 2015, when the chef ask me (as I'm a big guy) why I asked a smaller box, he suggested me to go for a bigger one and I did! Their char-siu is very good!
I love strictly dumpling😍😍
glad mike chen works for himself again and not strictly dumpling
cha siu is bbq pork..roastpig roast pork is the samething..rofl...
i dont remember my comment nor this video...so i gonna just say ok
@Al Gernon i dont remember my comment nor this video...so i gonna just say ok
chashu is marinated iirc
@@nate7817 i really should rewatch the video..so i know why i commented this,,,lol....
I dated a New Yorker for a little while and he was cheap AF about food. He would literally bring Halal cart food into a restaurant while I eat the restaurant food. Now I see why.
Mike chen!
I use to work in the park across the street from this spot!! AND i live a few blocks up!! I ABSOLUTELY LOOOVE THIS PLACE!! BEST DUCK AND PORK IN CHINATOWN!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I thought they were dating? From Mike’s channel. They make a good couple 😊
Man all these restaurants in new york really makes me wish I lived there
Notice how they pack the box 90% with rice
Food Insider... I stay for Food, Claudia and today, Mike Chen.
The perfect date
gave the lil wink at the end cause he was gonna get up in them LOL
3:57 dat voice crack though
I went there today and then I saw this video tonight. What a coincidence. Anyway it was so awesome
3:48 and I coo-
What’s more legendary is the stock music playing in the background
wtf?! $4-5 ONLYYY?!! California... WHY CAN'T YOU HAVE THIS?????
Grace Lieu you clearly haven’t been to chinatown in SF..
I work in the financial district and I go to Chinatown for lunch a lot. There's no place that sells something like that for that cheap.
@Beverly A @GoldenState I don’t live near San Francisco, I live more towards Los Angeles area so more expensive there lol
If you're in Orange County, specifically around the Fountain Valley area, there's a place called Lucky Chinese Food. For $9 you can get roughly the same amount as 2 of those rice bowls, except you get to choose between; White Rice, Fried Rice, Chow Mein, or split half of 2 types. And then you get to choose 2 different sides to go with it that can be anything from Orange Chicken, House Chicken, Roast Pork, String Beans and Beef, and more. And they STUFF the box, almost to the point where you can't close it, I also tend to get a pint of their Fried Squid, which is bomb!
remember back in the days when i was in university of houston departmetnof mathematics, going
to sandong for cicken rice and guotie, and mingxin ice valley for pork rice.
