      I just recently found you through your boba content, and I've been binge watching all of your videos since! I love your energy, and it's nice to see representation on social media! (I'm Chinese as well :D) I think my favorite spot is any place with noodles, especially niu rou mian, or any dim sum place with xiao lom baos. (That's super broad but OH WELL EHEHEH)

    There’s also a place called Hunan house which is nearby one of the tourist merch places you went to they offer a $9 lunch meal. It comes with your choice of entree, 2 scoops of rice, a side of soup AND a milk tea or lemon tea!!! All that for $9 literally my favorite lunch place to go to :D

    Chinatown was once my standard Saturday walk about and exploring tour for over a year, well over 32 years ago. I quickly preferred Stockton over Grant though both have plenty of gems.
    My favorite restaurant ever with at least one of the Ladies standing tall is, Lucky Creation, veg Chinese. Large gluten combination, eggplant in the bb sauce clay pot. Side of rice, plenty of sambal oelek [for me]. With my former friends, we ate very well there many times.
    That's my number one in SF's Chinatown.
