What's good #GustoGang, in this food tour we are support 9 LOCAL restaurants in Chinatown Chicago! What is your favorite restaurant in this neighborhood?
I’m moving to Chicago from Louisiana in a few months and watching your videos have not only been helpful, but also making me feel like I’ve made the right the decision.
My wife, 2 kids (6&5yr old) and sister-in-law toured china town yesterday and tried 4 of your recommendations: Bfast: Chiu Quon Lunch: QXY Snack: Elitea Dinner: MCCB All 4 were INCREDIBLE!!! Pork Bun and moon cake were such unique bfast treats! QXY truffle-beef and lamb-coriander dumplings were so delicate and yummy! My kids loved the fruit smoothies from Elitea and wife said her grapefruit green tea was the best tea concoctions she's ever had. Finishing with MCCB was outrageous. Surprisingly super affordable spot, and we loved the pig oil green onion noodles, and spicy dry chilli chicken! Honestly the best chinese take out I've ever had. We can't THANK YOU enough. Can't wait to try more of your chicago food recommendations!
My family and I are getting ready to visit Chicago for the first time and your videos are going to make our trip so much better. Can't thank you enough for the amazing content!
You gotta do an episode featuring Bridgeport restaurants too. Ricobene’s famous breaded steak sandwich was voted best sandwich in the world. Also, Fabulous Freddies is great too!
Wow! I lived in Chicago for 15+ years and I have not been to any one of the restaurants you went to! I’m totally missing out! I didn’t even know that there’s an underground food court! We are totally going to check out all of those places! Thanks for making this video!
You will make a difference perspective toward Asian people during pandemic time because of your support. You did a great job for all the details about Asian food. Thank you.
I actually made it out to Chinatown when I visited but I missed so much!!!!! I’ll definitely know where to go when I move there at the end of the year! Come to think of it I are ate Qing Xiang Yuan and loved it so much!!
Incredible video and thank you for sharing. Personally I would like to try them all. When Luis showed the ham and egg bao I started drooling as I had my first in Mexicali, Mexico's Chinatown area back in the late 1980's😋😋😋😋 ! While virtually everything looked divine the lovely young lady showing off the Strawberry Bao stole my heart. Strawberries should have their own food group ! 😋😍🤩😋
I would have never thought about Chinese bakeries. The ham and egg bun and barbecue bun looked really good. You had some really good choices. That mushroom salad looked so good! I love mushrooms. You had some really good, nontraditional choices. I'll have to check Chinatown out.
I also went to Chinatown. It was amazing! I had some really good bubble tea from Tbaar and also had delicious rolled up ice cream. If you've never been to Chinatown I highly recommend it!
I grew up in Chicago and we have been going to Chinatown since 1960. You did go to any of the old restaurants we alway go to off 22nd street. Everything was from that new section across Cermak.
You should go to Boonies at the revival food hall downtown for some really good Filipino food. The couple that open it up are really sweet and loving people that are very close to the Filipino community.
Great video. Been to Chinatown countless times and tried many restaurants, but didn't know about the underground food court. I need to find out how to get in there! Also, addresses on the screen would be really helpful. Thanks!
Love MCCB. Was just there with my wife a couple of days ago. Wanted to take some friends from out of town there this week, but they are closed on Tuesdays. Bummer. That dried chili chicken is soooo good, but hotter than you can imagine if you've not had it before.
6:26 the chopsticks in the rice 😩 hahha i kid im whatever bout that. but some people would be super anal hella good video. love how you bring scenes back to the hotel and got such a high quality camera with food all zoomed in
You should go and have some hot pot! That's always my favorite thing to eat in any China Town. I've heard Happy Lamb Hot Pot in Chicago is the best out there.
My family and I went to Mayflower. Our waiter was super rude to us. It was our first time ever eating in Chinatown. I might have to give them a second try and go to these restaurants
You should've done dis mid july on a sunday is when the chinatown fair is but it was august this yr bc of covid last yr. i dont remember food court underground tht pretty last time i went there as a kid. Probs cause the entrance isn't that inviting also which is why most ppl dont go in there
All the food looks amazing! Me and my friends were thinking about going this weekend and try something new. Kinda weird question but do they speak English in all these places?
My grandparents lived in Chinatown before and while it was transitioning so I was there a lot growing up. What happened to Won Kow? Any background on it?
thank you for the china town tour. looks yummy ...question where is the underground when did this open ? is it really underground? I know atlanta ga has underground shopping mall ..never recall this when I was living there of course that was before you were born. what is weather like mid november between nov 15-20th going there ..do I need winter coat or just light jacket ? I can't remember? staying by where i grew up in hotel down by river and ohio street ...love your tours. thanks ..you both are adorable. she's Filipina also?
I LOVE QXY. We have traveled to Chinatown from Indiana monthly, just to eat ans enjoy the awesome culture. We been having withdrawals since Covid. Is qxy open for dining in again?
It's an extremely walkable neighborhood and a quick train ride from the Loop. You can also walk there from the South Loop. It's very much part of the urban core of Chicago 😎
If you're Downtown? You can hop an El(red line) and get to Chinatown in 10 minutes. It's not that far from Downtown & very accessible. The Food? Num-num😋
@@shoppingangelc6035 its the silver/grey building infront of daebak. I think it says theres a PC cafe/foodcourt on the front. But you go in the building and theres stairs leading down to the food courg
