+LynxChan It's called service. It's common in Asian countries. I've never heard about it in China, but I have in Korea. It's when they give you extra food or like tape a coffee maker to toilet paper so you'll come back. It's like a majestical deal!
Panda On Steroids No, it's called marketing. I'm 100% sure they just gave them SO MUCH because of the fact that they were from buzzfeed and had cameras with them.
DIN TAI FUNG!!!!! Also, Mama Lu's obviously had someone who saw and recognize the Buzzfeed signs/labels/(or recognized Freddie) and were like "BUZZFEED! START PUTTING ALL THE FOOD ON THEIR TABLE! THIS IS GREAT WAY TO ADVERTISE!"
You guys, didn't you hear? Poor things were too full :/ Maybe they'll continue their journey for more dumplings once they've snapped out of the food coma.
IMO they should have either politely decline the extra foods or get them to go. Their jobs are to go to multiple dumpling restaurants and tell us which one is the best. Two isn't gonna cut it. I want a 2-parter!!
2:34 A time when Niki was only an intern....now the girl has an entire series (the one where she gets ready for her wedding) and Eating Your Feed! So proud!💗
Do you have a vegan vegetarian gluten free dairy free no preservative locally grown grass fed grain fed chemical free 0 calorie fat free low sodium substitue? im on a diet.
just wanna say that "soup dumplings" are called Xiao Long Bao. Also when i eat it i always put it on my spoon and use a chopstick to poke a hole and then i just like drink the soup
As the hungry Collin stalked his prey, the poor little soup dumpling stood no chance against the unforgiving terrors of the hard, painful teeth that awaited him inside.
It's a fail because Mama Lu kept them in her restaurant. But it's a success on Mama Lu's part, 'cause the gang gets to recommend different types of dishes to their coworkers, something that'll attract more customers.
No need to get testy. It goes by both names depending on where you live. In Texas, I've heard it referred to as both Boba tea and bubble tea. I heard that "boba" is usually what Asian people call it, so the nickname has made it's way around.
Mama Lu's understands marketing.
+LynxChan Ye I was like: "Noooo, they're definitely not gifting you food because of the cameras!" :D
Absolutely.

B.B.
1000FOF Julyljjjk
1000FOF 😂
Buzzfeed: "We don't eat because we want to, it's because it's our job"
Me:"Are.......are y'all hiring?"
lol
Yessss why don't we work there?!😂
Lol
I want a job eating food...
Rose A. , 😂😂😂
You could literally just listen to Andrew's voice all day and not get pissed off after ten minutes...
He needs to make an asmr video
+TheLastKestrel i would listen to his meditation podcasts if he did it. so soothing. lol
ikr
+Shell Penny OMG YESSS 😂😂
kinda creepy though
The rare Andrew is spotted! Finally!!
Oh I know I've been waiting to long
+Jiyū Which one is Andrew?
+MrFiggiman The good looking one
KI11Z0N3 456 😂
clicked on this because i knew andrew's here
4 years later, Steven and Andrew would eat the truffle soup dumplings at Din Tai Fung again, only in Taiwan. Who knew
Where do I apply to work at Buzzfeed
Just Google it. There are actually some vacations.
... At buzzfeed perhaps ? 😜
+Issa Rockaholik yeah at buzzfeed. even in different countries 😊
+DavidParody right?! Where do I apply?!
Probably at BuzzFeed
I want an Andrew.
Me too
Shyla Marie we have Andrews for sale only 98302829272938291010384791819182 dollars it's so cheap!
*gives money* Give me the Andrew.
Alexgames7272 sure here you go sir enjoy your Andrew
Thanks. *puts a dollar in the tips jar and flies out the door* byeeeee
They must have skipped the part where they had to wait in line forever at Din Tai Fung.
could be closed out for that hour for them
TBA most likely went at an off lunch or dinner hour. Like 2-3 PM cause that's when most of the lunch rush is over and is leaving
Tbh the line at din tai fung moves pretty quickly
right? i had to wait 2 hours to eat at din tai fung in taiwan lol
Going to bring a camera to Mama Lu's, say I'm Internet famous and let the food come to me
+Props Sounds like it could be very effective. ;)
😂😂😂😂
Who else started getting hungry/craved dumplings??
Me
+Little Lucario me too
I want to cry with how much I want soup dumplings right now.
over here lol my stomach is growling
Me
I love xiao long bao 😍
Sounds v familiar what is it ??? Dumplings ??
+GLORIA SHEEN Soup dumplings XD
+Kiara C same here
+Kiara C Me too! Just had some this morning at Dim Sum Garden in Philly.
SGV REPRESENT XD
I love that they still called it dumpling ding dong
That last restaurant was totally bribing you guys to give them a good review.....
its buzzfeed. free publicity all over the internet and all that
When Nikki was an intern
Now she's gone😥
@Megan Bass wait, really? whyyy?
@@anandhikamuhammad6133 BuzzFeed let go of some of the employees earlier this year.
I know right?! So cool to see her "in the beginning".
Sad she left but it was great to witness her journey
Mizz Knoxx lol she has her own series??
lol "back at it again" before the vine lmao
I was looking for this comment lol
*snapchat
+Laura Celina i know. I meant the vine craze
DIN TAI FUNG!!!!!
Also, Mama Lu's obviously had someone who saw and recognize the Buzzfeed signs/labels/(or recognized Freddie) and were like "BUZZFEED! START PUTTING ALL THE FOOD ON THEIR TABLE! THIS IS GREAT WAY TO ADVERTISE!"
are they back at it again with perhaps the white vans
Perhaps.
this made me laugh so much 😂
i am so jealous of families that cook and eat like authentic Asian food like every night for dinner
my family eats rice and soup mostly every night
Lol when we make dumpling it takes the entiiire day to wrap everything and make the filling
Mya Henderson I'm an Asian and I don't like it -_-
Shiru Hyuuga awee
When you're Asian and eat Asian food every night it gets tiring after a while hehe.
Tbh I only bothered watching the whole thing because of Andrew.
I've waited so long too
my exact sentiments.
Tbh I only bothered watching the whole thing because of all of them.
Same!!! I was thinking that I'd watch a couple of seconds, but I ended up watching the entire thing. :)
Idk her name but the black girl is 😍
her name is freddie x
+ConstellationCosmetics lol I commented before i watched the whole rest of the video but thanks
Wow I hate her for no reason now that I've read this.
N that's why we have to have race videos, cause even tho she's the only girl there she's seen as the black girl. She is awesome tho
+k f lmao foh she wasnt the only girl, the intern was a girl too please chill
*Guys you need to do more than 2 places, you could make the video over more than 1day*
Ikr
+Nathan Jones but why put in the extra effort when people still watch.
You guys, didn't you hear? Poor things were too full :/ Maybe they'll continue their journey for more dumplings once they've snapped out of the food coma.
+Nathan Jones They should just make another video, call it day 2.
IMO they should have either politely decline the extra foods or get them to go. Their jobs are to go to multiple dumpling restaurants and tell us which one is the best. Two isn't gonna cut it. I want a 2-parter!!
2:34
A time when Niki was only an intern....now the girl has an entire series (the one where she gets ready for her wedding) and Eating Your Feed! So proud!💗
I'll miss Andrew. BUZZCREEP WAS SO GOOD!
wait where'd he go?
StormyKitten
StormyKitten but he's still in videos??
I think for a while he wasn't as much
StormyKitten He's been doing those "low price vs. high price food" videos.
Andrew looked so excited when he ate those spicy dumplings😂😂😂
Freddie's smile is so pretty :)
Bro this series was the start of worth it with Steven and Andrew!
They ended up calling Dumpling ding dong xD
The precursor to “Worth It.”
"Can we call it Dumpling Ding Dong?"
"NO!"
*ends up naming the video Dumpling Ding Dong anyways*
Freddie is the Beyoncé of Buzzfeed
💯💯💯💯
Ah yes, the origin of Worth It
Mama Lu's saw the camera and understood the presentation, they were ready to take advantage of the unsuspecting BuzzFeed crew. And won.
I do Steve'smethod BUT I drink the soup last
Steven's***
Mama Lu's : taking advantage of the free publicity like a boss
I totally thought that Freddie said that she was hungry and "stoned," not stoked lol
+Travis Takamori me too! lol
the start of andrew & steven’s friendship
Andrew should read audiobooks
Freddie hasn’t had boba tea---> fast forward like 2 years= Freddie is now obsessed with boba tea
How to make a glass of water (best way)
1 glass
1 water
Instruction were unclear got my foot stuck in a beehive.
Thanks Shrek! I'll try this recipe right now.
Do you have a vegan vegetarian gluten free dairy free no preservative locally grown grass fed grain fed chemical free 0 calorie fat free low sodium substitue? im on a diet.
+Cholland3553 Put ice in it to add more flavor :))))) and maybe a straw to make you feel fancy
you are really getting FREAKING ANNONOING!!!!!!!!
Freddie has one of those personalities that makes everything bad in the world seem small and far away. So adorable and charming.
Andrew where tf have you been?
BACK AT IT AGAIN WITH THE FOOD TELEPHONE
Here I am 6 years later watching all my childhood “comfort” videos
i ship steve and the black girl (sorry idk her name)
+ghoulchan00 Her name was said in the video, her name is Freddie.
her name is freddie
he's got a girlfriend
+ghoulchan00 Steve has a girlfriend. She's in a make-up video
Uumm, Steven already has a girlfriend. Her name is Ying. She was in this video title: Boyfriends do their girlfriends makeup
YAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAYAY I LOVE THESE!
SOUP DUMPLINGS TOO OH MY GOODNESS
STEVE'S METHOD DOESN'T EVERYONE DO IT?
+Alex Wu same I thought that was standard
Andrew is literally the funniest person ever. He's really handsome too. 😂😂
Renee Kleiman
I doubt Mama Lu's brings out all that food on the House if you're just a regular Joe.
+singhrais ima go but make my friends bring a load of cameras so I can get free things
Andrew and Stevens first time eating truffle on buzzfeed little did they know how much truffles they would eat
just wanna say that "soup dumplings" are called Xiao Long Bao.
Also when i eat it i always put it on my spoon and use a chopstick to poke a hole and then i just like drink the soup
Soup dumplings are actually called Tang Bao
Xiao Long Bao is a term for small steamed dumplings
+Dorian Zhou All the Chinese people arguing over what it's called XD
+Anna Wang theres only 2 pepole in china?
LOL
+Gymnastics vorior haha your comment is gold
Can't believe this was a year ago, I miss andrew
what happened to andrew?
Did Andrew leave?
Ko Louis yes
Nightmare Annimations NoooooooooooOOoooOoooOoOOo >_< I thought he was in some pizza and kitchen videos recently!
+Nightmare Annimations W H A T ? How do you know
put the WHOLE DAMN SOUP DUMPLIN in ur DAMN MOUTH
As the hungry Collin stalked his prey, the poor little soup dumpling stood no chance against the unforgiving terrors of the hard, painful teeth that awaited him inside.
Andrew is so adorable, he loves everything he tries
WHERE MAH PHO TASTE TEST AT THO?!?!!
I've never had a dumpling but I really want one now.
How far Steven and Andrew have come
"We are *NOT* calling it dumpling ding dong!"
Well the title says otherwise
I love how much Emotion Andrew has
Steven makes me want soup dumplings ASAP every time I watch this...
I don't think i ever had a soup dumpling am I missing out? 😂
Yes 😂
Yes. Go and find a soup dumpling. Savor the delicious flavors. And you have lived.
And depending on where you live, I would go to the Great Wall Buffet.
Jorii Alsurayei if you were Asian definitely
Hey Dean 😂😂😂
I love dumplings...But I love Andrew more, he's the reason I'm watching this video😍
Mama Lu's wanted the fairly inexpensive advertising that having all of their different dishes on camera would give them.
If I knew this series existed, I would've watched it as much as the Worth It videos.
Freddie has the most glorious skin
Andrew saying Ding Dong at the beginning is so sexy but why?!!??!.,,,,?!!?!!?,?¡¡??!?
Who knows? 😏
I SURE AS HECK DON'T
As in a bell? And a telephone used to be known as that? What I was thinking anyway.
Dang!!! Ancient BuzzFeed!!! Nikki's an intern!!! 2019 anyone?
Freddie is adorable
i love these four together. please do more videos with this group!
Too many D's in the youtube title ;)
thanks b
Dave London
Look who the cat dragged in 😂
heyyy its you
+Whiskas “Lingy Ling” Pear Yeah, in the virtual flesh!
I love boba!!
I just made it yesterday and drank some.
+Gummibears101 Boba is so good
+Kabbaong Xiong taro boba is the bomb O.O
Andrew and Dumplings
All these guys love food so much. I love them for it. Even lil ol Nikki
BuzzFeed would honestly be the best job ever.
BRING ANDREW BACK TO THE FEAST MODE HUNGER SQUAD VIDEOS
Poking holes in soup dumplings are for hooligans - Eddie Huang
Freddie is soo pretty😍
i wish they did more of these feast mode hunger squad videos... I just love them so much
In the beginning I thought that she would say
"And we are back at it again whit those white vans"
Steve and Freddie are so cute
i've never had dumplings before and this just makes me want some
Exactly
Do burgers, sushi, and grilled cheeses!
I want this series baaaaack! Bring it back!
NEVER FORGET. Before we had worth it and all the other buzzfeed food shows, we had Feast Mode Hunger Squad. Always remember to pay respect to the OG's
steven and freddie.....
I think this is the prequels of the worth it series.
I feel like this was a failed telephone episode since you only made it to two places. Or maybe that means it was a successful one. I don't know.
It's a fail because Mama Lu kept them in her restaurant. But it's a success on Mama Lu's part, 'cause the gang gets to recommend different types of dishes to their coworkers, something that'll attract more customers.
Did you not listen? They were too full
+Marianna Dominicana She didn't say it's their fault, she just pointed out the result and how it was unplanned. She didn't attack them.
+Jonah Henninger I would say it was a success because they git free food.
And the inception of Steven and Andrew eating truffles
"We're back at it aging".....WITH THE WHITE VANS LOL LMFAO😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
STOP.CALLING.IT.BOBA. WE CANADIANS MAY CALL FOOTBALL "SOCCER" LIKE YOU BUT BOBA.... OH HELL NAW
ITS BUBBLE TEA
lol. it's called boba everywhere in the US. especially in southern California.
+Narutoboiii just depends on where you live, some places call it bubble tea, other's call it boba...in so cal it's called boba
No need to get testy. It goes by both names depending on where you live. In Texas, I've heard it referred to as both Boba tea and bubble tea. I heard that "boba" is usually what Asian people call it, so the nickname has made it's way around.
Why the hell not? Bubble Tea is just the westernized name. Boba is the original, Asian name.
+Narutoboiii yaaaaasssss I think in most part of Asia it's called bubble tea as well.
Now I want dumplings
Andrew seriously has the voice of a sex god, I would love to have his voice, I would never shut up
agreed !!
Matthew Chaisuwan we all have a crush on andrew even me❤
I've seen like 3 of these videos and DAMN BUZZ FEED YOU MAKE ME HUNGRY
I love how deadpan Andrew's voice sounds as he's saying 'dumpling ding dong'. It's just hilarious.
PHO TELEPHONE!
SOUP DUMPLINGS ARE LIIIIIIIIIFE
I wish I could have and consume dumplings all day everyday they are the best
Back at it again with the dumplings
"We're not calling it dumpling ding ding". They still call it dumpling ding dong
