Love this! I know your not a fan of vegan food, but I would appreciate it if you at least tried it and see if you can find one restaurant in NYC that you liked. Also would love to see more videos like this but of other spots you traveled with Rachael, like Tokyo and Italy. Thanks for the great videos :)
@@jeanineperez9119I don’t mind vegan! There is a great place in alphabet city called superiority burger that’s incredible - I’ll work on finding more vegan 😊🤝🏾
We went to NYC for the first time back in May and I went through all of yours and Rachaels highlight bubbles to find all your NYC food recs. This UA-cam series is such a nice upgrade and will definitely use this our next time there!! 😍 would love to see your fav salad place recs! Like big, flavorful salads with lots of moving parts!!
@@Mattjames919 Oooo! More of you and Rachael. Working out (like a run) with everyday folks in NYC & grab a bagel after. Trying some plant based food spots in NYC. I'm local in NYC, I also love food and love working out. Your content is helpful for someone like myself to learn more about my city and more about the athletic world.
Matt!! Your food/city content has been so great to see post-TV! I’m so glad you’re starting long form content and looking forward to seeing more of you here!
brother, this is by far my favourite New York eats video. Your positive energy and personality really come through, looking forward to even more great content in the future!!
Ready to see your growth Shavon! Going to college with you, you’ve always had this bright aura about you so wishing you many blessings from God as you embark on this journey.
Love your TikTok food reviews and so happy to see them in long form content here on UA-cam! My husband and I visited NYC a few months ago for the first time and we used your recs from TikTok to help us eat. Tompkins Square Bagels slaps lol. Excited to see your channel grow, been a fan since you were the Bachelor!
@@Mattjames919 For sure! I’d have to say definitely that chicken sandwich from bobwhite my god.. heard of bobwhite before but never been, that part locked it in for me I’m going. Also thought that was Nepali dumplings (momos) in the intro but realized after finishing the vid it was Chinese dumplings, looked great all the same though!
Hey Matt, all right, you’ve got a new fan! You are incredible, I absolutely love your excitement about food, your suggestions, your combinations, I think your channel is going to blow up like crazy… I have one question: how do you eat so much and stay so thin? :-) Keep up the great work, thank you so much.
@@Mattjames919 Thanks friend! Unfortunately our long form videos just weren’t getting the views that made the hours of editing worth it 😩 We miss it though. Maybe we will get back into long form eventually! 😊
Can’t wait to try all of these 😍😍😋😋 also love all of the additives you do for the videos hahaha the corn video 😂😂 loving these videos already and can’t wait for more!
Ahh! I’m SO excited to follow along!! I’ve been here since the Bachelor days and I’m so happy to see you and Rachael more now on UA-cam! 😊 Travel recommendation for you both…El Salvador!! 🇸🇻 Such an underrated country, but it’s the only place you will find the best pupusas! 😋😉
I loved this video! You actually chew with your mouth closed, no slurping or other disgustingness (maybe the ASMR-crowd likes it, but I find it repulsive), and no annoying theatrics. You should really travel, and review food around the world. I would definitely watch all your uploads. Greetings from Norway.
I love all your food videos. I just wonder how you both stay so trim. I know you work out as well. But it is mind-boggling. Congratulations on this new series.
@@Mattjames919 it’s truly the best. Anytime we go, my husband orders 2 of every single sandwich. 🤣 My go-to’s are the mac & cheese, pimento cheese dip (the homemade crackers 😮💨), buffalo chicken tenders, kale & quinoa salad, and then I steal bites of all the sandwiches haha. We’ll for sure be trying your tips with the honey, ranch & mac!
The bagels?! Omg need to try now! The coffee and cookies?! Need to try now! Like how did I not know of any of these places?! We’re going here whether with you on the NYC trip or with my family.
LOVE all of these recs!! Definitely 10/10 places! My other favs are Rubirosa for the tie dye pizza, Joes Shanghai for soup dumplings, and 12 chairs cafe for Middle Eastern!! 😋
I just came back from ten days NYC and it’s a square to find healthy food for a reasonable prize. So basically I lived on pizza slices, burgers and steaks.
Matt... You're making me plan a trip to NYC. Oh my gawd. Where from NC you're from? I live in Ohio now but I am originally from Goldsboro, NC. Went to college in Greensboro and also l8ved in Charlotte prior to moving to Ohio (for work) many, many, many years ago.
Yay, so excited to watch!! Also, look up St. John's, on the island of Newfoundland! It is a very special place (most easterly point in North America, known for seafood) and we have some of the best food in Canada. If you and Rachel ever wanna come visit, you would not regret it! ❤❤❤ The Merchant, Portage, Birdie Cafe, Rabble... All restaurants run by the highest rated chefs in Canada!
@@Mattjames919 You can't go wrong with any order, honestly! All those restaurants were opened by winning chefs of Canada's Top Chef, they just happen to live on this one small island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. There is a huge food culture here, one of the last episodes of Parts Unknown by Anthony Bourdain before his tragic passing was his visit here. Honestly, if you ever would like info or even a place to crash, you are welcome. Newfoundlanders are known for our hospitality, you'd never run out of offers to stay here. The Broadway play, Come From Away is based on the hospitality of us Newfoundlanders, actually. We were the last province to join Canada in 1949, huge Irish culture and like a little piece of Ireland in terms of coastline. Come in the summer and you'll be greated by whales and rolling caplin, beautiful hiking trails, it is a hidden treasure!
And then you lost me at los tacos . lol 😂 I am Angeleno though so when you recommend a taco spot …you better come correct . Also to be fair comparing tacos from LA to NYC is not fair . I didn’t think the place was bad when I went. I just would give it a mid score . I didn’t try their quesadillas though so maybe the quesadillas are better?
let me know if I missed anything & lemme know what food videos you want to see next! 🍴
Love this! I know your not a fan of vegan food, but I would appreciate it if you at least tried it and see if you can find one restaurant in NYC that you liked.

Ahh! I’m SO excited to follow along!! I’ve been here since the Bachelor days and I’m so happy to see you and Rachael more now on UA-cam! 😊 Travel recommendation for you both…El Salvador!! 🇸🇻 Such an underrated country, but it’s the only place you will find the best pupusas! 😋😉
any specific places in El Salvador??

Greetings from Norway.
Super solid list, every place on here is an actual banger
I love all your food videos. I just wonder how you both stay so trim. I know you work out as well. But it is mind-boggling. Congratulations on this new series.

Thanks for the tips bro. Visiting in a couple weeks. You said you were from NC. Us too. Where you from??

Going to plan a 24 hour trip from Dallas to NYC just for the food in this video 🤣🤣 🥹
YES! Was just in Dallas, highland park village was beautiful..
TOMPKINS SQUARE BAGEL---> is TIMOTHEE CHALAMET'S FAVORITE spor. He orders: A BBACON, EGG, & CHEESE whenever he wants one. I gotta try this❗️👏💯
Love you Matt you funny!!! ❤
Mr. Broadways on West 38th Street is really good! Also Patis on Broadway is a great café. Try those and let me know what you think.
✍🏾✍🏾 I’m gonna check these out this week, thank you!
Love ur videos Matt! Great escapism for me.
Looks delicious
Did you go to Van Lueeen for the best ice cream 😮
scooped????!!! They should ban you from the shop
It tasted better scooped
@jimbojimbo6873 - an easy way to tell if somebody is bent (means he wants them to scoop part of the bagel OUT of the bagel)
My guy on the tube!
What’s your camera? Quality is insaneeee
Go to Orlando Disney Springs!!
Loved this!
No fold on the pizza is crazy work
amazing video!! thanks!!
Let’s gooo king! IDEA… You should do a gluten free NYC tour for your GF followers!!

Now I want to go back to New York just to eat 😅
that’s a great reason to come to NYC 😂
And then you lost me at los tacos . lol 😂

quesadillas are the only way to go! best “tacos” you’ll find in NYC - their “tacos” don’t have cheese but their quesadillas do!
awesome vid
Awesome video! I'm from Australia and so keen to try that corn cookie
I love these food videos, but now I am very hungry.....
you gotta get a snack while you’re watching 😂
Music slaps, food smacks
How about some spots for us uptown folks? 🤔
I can do that for ya sir!
Love this
have you been to any??
I’ve never had a French toast bagel
they’re delicious!!
