Hey Janice...I grew up In Eastwood...went to Eastwood Primary and has this suburb changed. In your opening comments...over your right shoulder was the Duke of York Picture theatre !! And on your left was Stanbrowns Menswear Shop !! That crossing can take a long time to get through...like the one at the end of the street....and there used to be a Coles Supermarket there...opened in the mid 1960's !! I used to play soccer (football) on the Eastwood Oval as a child....it used to be a lake would you believe !! When I was a kid the ONLY Chinese eatery was on the Korean side near the Railway station...and that was it !! So many memories for me and I am often there as my Mum lives in a Nursing home in Carlingford and we often go for a drive through Eastwoo !!! Great stuff!!
Hey Craig, do you remember if there used to be a bunnings or mitre 10 on the korean side where aldi is now? I vaguely have memories going with my pops there as a kid in the 90s, but nobody's confirmed for me before 😭😂
haha Janice i was inspired by your Eastwood video tour and today we popped down to eastwood while visiting sydney this week fr holiday for the very first time. This whole trip has been like a routine to come back and watch your vidoes after sightseeing each day as a end-of-the day come home to routine, which doubles up as research for the very next day :D thank you so much fr the videos Janice! it has been so fun to watch and 'come along' with you as we trace the footprints of where you've walked on before haha. Anyway were you referring to the honey watercress drink that is served quite typically in hk cha caan teng places at 11:42? haha thats the only drink i can think of abt vegetables, honey, and good for soothing your throat
I used to love buying seafood in Chinese supermarkets in NYC because they would have heads on shrimp, while in most NYC seafood markets, they cut the heads.
Love your videos. We don't go out much due to the COVID virus, but watching your videos lets us experience Australia. The videos are so good, I dream of moving there.
I suggest Little India in Harris Park. It’s just off the station and the transformation in the suburb has been amazing. Also Sri Lankan food in Seven Hills. And Middle Eastern food in Auburn and Granville.
Hi Janice - I'm a big fan of your vlogs - love the tips and hidden gems you uncover. I watched an ep a while ago now where you showed a frozen dumpling place. I think it's in Eastwood but I can't find which ep it was in. It looked a random house somewhere and I think you entered through a sliding glass door. It was not on a shopping strip. If you know which place I'm talking about could you tell me what it's called? I'd love to go and buy some stuff from there. Thanks! Dan
we love going to Asian supermarkets! (well, all kind of supermarkets!) exploring those sections with all the drinks, snacks, frozen stuff, fresh veggies and fruit (if they have)
Man.. I remember back in the days (like early 90s), we had to go all the way to either Campsie or Cabra to get Asian groceries.. now it’s so convenient! Thanks for another awesome vid, Janice! (ps. @00:10 just casually walking away without tagging off?!! 😂)
Glad you have explored Eastwood but you need more time to explore here. Being a local , I recommend the following food choices for everyone. The best BBQ dish in Canton (Fusion) Cafe is the roast duck rice noodles soup ( 焼鴨河). The duck skin is crispy & tasty. Bread top is very commercialism. Try the Cranberry cream cheese bread in the bakery shop named Bao Bao ( opposite of Post office). Baked with healthy & good quality of ingredients. For unique Taiwanese meals or snacks, you can try Hungry Pauline. I like to eat their salty soy bean soup (咸豆漿）& red sticky rice pork flake roll (肉鬆飯糰.). For a good Vietnamese bread roll (Banh mi), there’s one near SuperFresh Veg shop next to the Pharmacy. It offers many home cooking ingredients to put into the bread roll? Final tips, I will go to Noble House seafood restaurant for Yum Cha & dinner. Keep eating :)
It’s sooo convenient to find all that produce. I guess when you live in a big city like Sydney or NYC, we are all looking for the convenience of finding our food (from whatever part of the world we are from)
i did finish the whole video 😂 i usually don’t finish most youtubers’ videos haha once again, another amazing video! the effort put into it is really *wow* 🤩 i just have a question though, did u actually left your camera up there at the train station alone? haha and also, i commented on another one of your video and fr my video request is that if you are ever up in Adelaide, would you mind showing us around ? because i feel that you will be able to make a comprehensive video on it! and show us a lot of exciting stuff going on around there! and i would love to see any videos you have in Sydney because i don’t know much about it. thank you!
Haha thank you for watching til the end ☺️ Yea I did leave my camera alone at the station 😅 I’ve never been to Adelaide but I’d love to go! And don’t worry if I ever go I’ll def film a video about it 😉
Oohh, secret garden sounds good. Very nice spot. Get some Tuna Bread! Pork Chop with Mango looks interesting and delicious. Great choices. Thank you for the tour.
Hi Janice I just found your channel and I am absolutely hooked on your channel. You are a very interesting person and I like the way you present your videos with helpful information and enjoy the visits you do all your favourite places to eat. I wish you were in Perth doing this so I could visit these food places. Also you are very beautiful and have a nice smile. You have my favourite utube channel. Takecare.
I live in Eastwood, at the 5 min mark of this video I was walking past as you were filming! I said to myself, there is a RUclipsr! I’ve lived in Eastwood nearly all my life, I’m so happy you filmed this segment. BTW, 257 is one of my favourites 加油💪🏼加油💪🏼
So nice to see you featuring my home town Eastwood. I’m taking notes. Still plenty of food experiences to try. Canton is one of my favourites, along with the roast pork from Wang Wang. I was going to recommend Jean’s Chilli Chicken from the Korean side, but it’s nuclear hot and you probably wouldn’t like it 😂
I just discovered your channel. You are so fresh and engaging to watch. So wonderful to watch someone so articulate show us around Sydney Please show us every suburb. Every culture. 🤙 Goodluck with your new life away from the rat race.
Thanks so much Jenny! I’m glad you enjoy the videos ☺️ I’d love to do that 😁 let me know if there are any particular suburbs you’d like to see though !
Eastwood sounds like a very good suburb especially for foodies like us 👍🏻🤤 Your favourite HK supermarket looks huge, never seen an Asian grocery that big before haha. Thanks for the tour Janice, would love to visit this suburb in the future when we visit Sydney.
Another superb video, I'd surely prowl that place when I visit Australia as if I know it personally. You have taken us on a walking tour with pleasant background music., it started off with hotdog bun and ended with a dinner. Tummy full already. Thanks Janice, keep up the good work. 👍
Yes Eastwood, my fav place for Chinese, Korean, Viet combo. For the best though, Strathfield for Korean, Cabramatta for Vietnamese and Burwood for Chinese. Also North Sydney for Japanese.
Omg I thought I was the only person who felt guilty walking across zebra crossings. I feel so guilty when cars stop for such long periods of time. I would literally run across the zebra crossing along with a group but I hate it when people just continue to walk like lemmings even if they’ve seen that the cars have already stopped for a while.
Thanks for another great video! Really helpful for someone moving to Sydney from NZ for a grad job, trying to find a good suburb to stay. Do more videos like this! Also @ 3:52 => AUD $4.2, USD $2.05..... hmmmm
Hi Janice , my go-to also sausage buns 😋but I usually getting 3-5 of them for afternoon snacks lol . Thanks for sharing us your joyful videos . Keep smiling :)
5.17 and 14.51 your expressions just awesome..finally the ending byeeee video was nice pls keep that in every video...bcas I'm loving that gesture its specifically suits to you...and you didnt showed the eating of beef pho..you silently eaten on off screen ...😋😊
i hate when bakeries wrap their pastries and all in plastic. they could wait to see if the client needs to wrap it to go or not. it's a bake! it should be "breathing" with no wrapping at all...what a waste of plastic! plus, it makes it all look too "industrial" when maybe was handmade and so fresh from a few hours ago...
Don't forget the Vietnamese ! The Vietnamese cafe in Rowe Street on the Chinese ( West ) side of the station has the best crisp skin chicken in Sydney. Go to the East side for Korean.
We like trees. Hahaha You're too funny Janice. Pho is always a good idea. We have a couple of Asian neighborhoods and we love visiting all the supermarkets. We always buy more than we should.
That bloody pedestrian crossing was the bane of my existence when i used to live in Telopea and worked in Chatswood. Maybe check out Carlingford if you are in the area again. There is an Asian shopping centre called a carlingford shopping village. It’s ok for some stuff. There’s a teppanyaki and a yum Cha on the outside that I went to once. West ryde has some decent eating aswell.
Sydney is such a treasure trove for Asian cuisine. not sure if you've done an Ashfield episode yet, but that place has awesome dumplings. Wests Leagues Club is freakin awesome for yum cha too.
SO MUCH IN EASTWOOD! CHINESE SIDE: Bao Bao Bakery (6 Progress Avenue, Chinese side) is another great bread place. It's next to two competing BBQ places too. Tan Viet is okay. There's Gia Hoi a few doors down (3 Vietnamese places in a row, almost). And Tonyon is THE Chinese supermarket, it was the first to be there. KOREAN SIDE: Hukuya is excellent, Jonga Jip is where Koreans I know go to, 10000 Lab is great for coffee, pastry and study with WiFi, LaVigne Yes!, etc etc. And what's often forgotten, Eastwood is the place where the Granny Smith apple was discovered by Maria Ann Smith, by accident.
Omg the breadtop bakery 😍🤤 they have so many delicious looking items there. I love Asian bakeries, the breads and cakes are so pillowy soft. Great video I loved it thank you
Hey Janice! So I’ve kinda been binge watching your vids for the past few days haha.. ☺️ Would love to see you venture out west to Cabramatta. It’ll be interesting to see how you think the food compares to Vietnam! Happy to recommend some places ✌🏻 P.s you’re actually the cutest human! I can’t 🙈
Janice Fung Yay! First, some Cabra house rules: 1. Much like Eastwood, please don’t drive here. Anxiety levels will be higher than your cholesterol levels after all the food you will consume 😂 If you do plan on driving, I recommend parking at the Fisher St multi-level parking (on the less busy side of Cabra, also known as the Cambo side) and walking over the railway bridge. 2. Come with an empty stomach and bring some friends so you can try a bit of everything. 3. I know you’re a coffee fan so ignore the seedy men sitting outside most of the cafes and get your sweet Vietnamese caffeine hit from Cafe Nho👌🏻 Now for food... 1. Banh mi thit (pork roll) at KK bakery. Ask for extra pate because you know how it is 😉 2. Pho dac biet at Pho Tau Bay - make sure you ask for sate sauce to add to your sriracha/hoisin meat dip 🔥 3. DIY rice paper rolls at Phu Quoc (next door to Pho Tau Bay). Choose the combination DIY dish so you get sugar cane prawns, grilled pork, fried spring rolls and other goodies to stuff in your rice paper. 4. Viet/Chinese baked goods at A&A Cake shop - go for the egg tarts, steamed pork buns and sesame buns. 5. Beef jerky, fried bananas, assorted fruit juices at Kaysone Sweets. My personal fav is the dried beef jerky (sweet) 6. Wash it all down with 3 for $5 sugar cane juice at Thu Phung N. Ask for your drinks takeaway so you get sealed plastic cups instead of foam cups (you know for the environment n dat) 7. Boba at anywhere along John St. there are literally a million boba shops in Cabra 😂 take your pick I could literally go on forever but I think that’s a solid start haha. If I catch you filming, I’ll be sure to say hello 🙋🏻♀️☺️ Good luck!
I just want to thank u for making such food videos...i am travelling solo next month to Sydney n thanks to u m more comfortable with the place...loads of love from India ❤️😘
Hey Janice...I grew up In Eastwood...went to Eastwood Primary and has this suburb changed. In your opening comments...over your right shoulder was the Duke of York Picture theatre !! And on your left was Stanbrowns Menswear Shop !! That crossing can take a long time to get through...like the one at the end of the street....and there used to be a Coles Supermarket there...opened in the mid 1960's !! I used to play soccer (football) on the Eastwood Oval as a child....it used to be a lake would you believe !! When I was a kid the ONLY Chinese eatery was on the Korean side near the Railway station...and that was it !! So many memories for me and I am often there as my Mum lives in a Nursing home in Carlingford and we often go for a drive through Eastwoo !!! Great stuff!!
Wow I had no idea the oval used to be a lake...! thanks so much for sharing Craig!
Did you knoe thst most people would now play their phone there. Like she started it
Hey Craig, do you remember if there used to be a bunnings or mitre 10 on the korean side where aldi is now? I vaguely have memories going with my pops there as a kid in the 90s, but nobody's confirmed for me before 😭😂
Janice be that one friend who always knows where to take everyone to eat, no matter what suburb you're in
You forgot to tap out at he station
Hahahahhah
She is paying too much
Hahhaa Janice always gotta get her coffee 😂
haha Janice i was inspired by your Eastwood video tour and today we popped down to eastwood while visiting sydney this week fr holiday for the very first time. This whole trip has been like a routine to come back and watch your vidoes after sightseeing each day as a end-of-the day come home to routine, which doubles up as research for the very next day :D thank you so much fr the videos Janice! it has been so fun to watch and 'come along' with you as we trace the footprints of where you've walked on before haha. Anyway were you referring to the honey watercress drink that is served quite typically in hk cha caan teng places at 11:42? haha thats the only drink i can think of abt vegetables, honey, and good for soothing your throat
yesss! that's the one! honey watercress drink is so good when I have an itchy throat
I used to love buying seafood in Chinese supermarkets in NYC because they would have heads on shrimp, while in most NYC seafood markets, they cut the heads.
the heads have the most flavor! can make a really good seafood broth from it!
Janice Fung exactly!
Chinese vegetables!!!!!! Totally get u hahah
you should do a video about the best bbq shop in sydney! btw i love your videos
Its a hometown in my heart. Living near by since 2007 it's always comforting and brings back lots of memories when I'm there
Great video. What do you use for audio recording when shooting clips?
Congrats on 6K! Janice, you're awesome!
Love your videos. We don't go out much due to the COVID virus, but watching your videos lets us experience Australia. The videos are so good, I dream of moving there.
So, you are back to AUS from Vietnam? or it's some old footage you shot before?
Back in aus :)
I missed out so much of foodie! omg....!
Thank for showing great foodie
Whoa pork chop with mango??? I don't think I've had that before!
Wow! Can’t believe you did Eastwood! Glad I subscribed xx
haha hope i did it justice! did i miss anything?
She olives there
have you been to Sydney? What other Sydney suburb would you like to see a video on?
I’m going to sydney for my honeymoon next year! I’m looking forward for ur next video abt sydney. 😁😁
Burwood
Chatty / Stratty / Ashfield
There are a few Ramen places in Newtown that would make a good comparison. Rising Sun Workshops being my favourite.
I suggest Little India in Harris Park. It’s just off the station and the transformation in the suburb has been amazing. Also Sri Lankan food in Seven Hills.
And Middle Eastern food in Auburn and Granville.
Secret garden that’s looks like such a great place to relax! This supermarket it’s so cool too. Chinese bbq looks delicious 😋 Thanks Janice
Hehe thanks for watching! ☺️🙏 the Chinese bbq was so yummy!
Before the dinner what was that music you played in the back ground, it was very jazz type.
I am enjoying your postings, Keep it coming.
Hi Janice - I'm a big fan of your vlogs - love the tips and hidden gems you uncover. I watched an ep a while ago now where you showed a frozen dumpling place.

we love going to Asian supermarkets! (well, all kind of supermarkets!) exploring those sections with all the drinks, snacks, frozen stuff, fresh veggies and fruit (if they have)
Hahaha I’m totally with you guys , it’s one of my fav things to do when I go somewhere new!
You didn't tap off at the station! hehehe
Great video. Great to see some Sydney food tips!
I will give Eastwood a visit! Food looks good
Food is awesome there!!
The sausage bun looks great! It’s something we would love for sure
yeah and the bun was pillowy soft!
Man.. I remember back in the days (like early 90s), we had to go all the way to either Campsie or Cabra to get Asian groceries.. now it’s so convenient!
Thanks for another awesome vid, Janice!
(ps. @00:10 just casually walking away without tagging off?!! 😂)
Hahaha I had to look cool for the camera 🤣
(Ran back to tap off after 😅)
Oh my god! Those two dishes sound perfect!!
yeah they were really good! i'll take you guys if you ever come to sydney ;)
Janice Fung oh we would love that
Can you please do a tour and show what snacks are vegan in a Chinese grocery store!
I’ll add this onto my list of video ideas! ☺️
Glad you have explored Eastwood but you need more time to explore here. Being a local , I recommend the following food choices for everyone.

Final tips, I will go to Noble House seafood restaurant for Yum Cha & dinner. Keep eating :)
Someone of your kind can be in the visitor centre, you do so well
Same here, the sausage bun from breadtop is our go to as well. Yum!
Btw, great intro, Janice 👍🏻👍🏻 love it
Now I'm hungry. What are the titles of your background piano music (3:43)? I know they are composed and played by Ofelia Moore. Just curious. :)
So cool that you can take the train
And even cooler that you can jump from the Chinese side to the Korean side
It’s sooo convenient to find all that produce.
I guess when you live in a big city like Sydney or NYC, we are all looking for the convenience of finding our food (from whatever part of the world we are from)
welcome to eastwood. my town has changed dramatically over the years. hope you enjoy.
you have missed the best chinese restaurant in eastwood by the way - Ginger and Shallots
thanks Ronnie - trips to eastwood always fun :)
Fond of watching you! Good vibes 😊
You managed to also capture the mayor of Ryde haha, nice one
What was the 2nd chip called again? Btw i do remember it being pepper spicy right? Can you handle pepper spice 😂 charmander lol
sook yut siu !
i can handle pepper spice better than chilii spice for sureee
Great way to end the video with the BBQ meats with that ginger scallion sauce 👍🏼
The ginger scallion sauce is delicious ! I could eat it with plain rice !
Thanks for the tips on where to eat in Eastwood, Janice.
i did finish the whole video 😂 i usually don’t finish most youtubers’ videos haha
once again, another amazing video! the effort put into it is really *wow* 🤩 i just have a question though, did u actually left your camera up there at the train station alone? haha
and also, i commented on another one of your video and fr my video request is that if you are ever up in Adelaide, would you mind showing us around ? because i feel that you will be able to make a comprehensive video on it! and show us a lot of exciting stuff going on around there!

Have you not been to Hurstville? Girl you are missing out!! 🤣

Canton is one of my favourites, along with the roast pork from Wang Wang. I was going to recommend Jean’s Chilli Chicken from the Korean side, but it’s nuclear hot and you probably wouldn’t like it 😂
loving the vlogs !! stuff ain't cheap in Sydney
Thanks mate! Yeah Sydney ain’t the cheapest place...
Eastwoo locals are soo racist to white Australians
서초동 at 12:18 is the area I grew up in Korea. A pretty random name for a restaurant lol
I just discovered your channel. You are so fresh and engaging to watch. So wonderful to watch someone so articulate show us around Sydney
Please show us every suburb. Every culture. 🤙 Goodluck with your new life away from the rat race.
Thanks so much Jenny! I’m glad you enjoy the videos ☺️
I’d love to do that 😁 let me know if there are any particular suburbs you’d like to see though !
Hurstville, my one, i dont really like it, but its got plenty much
Eastwood sounds like a very good suburb especially for foodies like us 👍🏻🤤
Your favourite HK supermarket looks huge, never seen an Asian grocery that big before haha.
Thanks for the tour Janice, would love to visit this suburb in the future when we visit Sydney.
try New Yen Yen! they have it
So great to get to know a different side of Sydney. Yes, start with some bread. Get all of it! We would go nuts there.
I love your travel and food vids! I'm also from sydney. Please keep making more vids!!!
Tan viet 🤔🤔 hmm never knew eastwood has one - surely got every combination there now - I remember yogurberry too... is it still there
lol yeah yogurberry still there right next to the station!
I had visited it yesterday and I think it is not interesting than burwood because the food is shortage
Another superb video, I'd surely prowl that place when I visit Australia as if I know it personally. You have taken us on a walking tour with pleasant background music., it started off with hotdog bun and ended with a dinner. Tummy full already. Thanks Janice, keep up the good work. 👍
Thanks so much for watching !! ☺️🙏
Funny. At 14:31, when you said most shops on this strip are Korean, you walk past Pho Mai, a Vietnamese joint!
haha! it's the only Viertnamese joint on that street, everything around it is Korean
I just love your voice so much
Also, I will definitely be checking out Eastwood after quarantine
What if Eastwood is the place my girlfriend is from
I was in the woo yesterday 🤘
Yes Eastwood, my fav place for Chinese, Korean, Viet combo. For the best though, Strathfield for Korean, Cabramatta for Vietnamese and Burwood for Chinese. Also North Sydney for Japanese.
My wife loves those seaweed thingys! Everytime we go to a japanese market she searches for 20 mins
Haha those seaweed things are soooo good !
Omg I thought I was the only person who felt guilty walking across zebra crossings. I feel so guilty when cars stop for such long periods of time. I would literally run across the zebra crossing along with a group but I hate it when people just continue to walk like lemmings even if they’ve seen that the cars have already stopped for a while.
That baked pork chop with mango! Wow, I've never seen that! Looked awesome.
Seems like pretty amazing place to visit , love those markets. thank you for all the guidance and well done 👍
Thanks so much for always tuning in Anwar
Nice park to chill with that coffee
That look pho-ntastic!! Slurpilicious!!
Pho- tasting indeed! 🤣
Pho- tasting indeed! 🤣
Yahoo! A fellow RUclipsr in Sydney!
Keep it up Janice, looking forward to seeing you grow and kill the youtube game : )
ayyyyy thanks so much Briane!!
Very rare
See you Tuesday!
see you on Tuesday! :D
10:14 is literally me right now because it isn't payday yet. :D
Hahaha i know that feeling 🤣
Ahhh nice secret garden spot down that alley
I love the idea of visiting a town, please do Newtown & Surry Hills if possible. Would love your suggestions on where to eat around there!!
thanks Julian, awesome suggestions :D
Thanks for another great video! Really helpful for someone moving to Sydney from NZ for a grad job, trying to find a good suburb to stay. Do more videos like this!
Also @ 3:52 => AUD $4.2, USD $2.05..... hmmmm
Lmk if you have any specific suburb requests!
whoops 😅
Hi Janice , my go-to also sausage buns 😋but I usually getting 3-5 of them for afternoon snacks lol . Thanks for sharing us your joyful videos . Keep smiling :)
Haha 3-5 all sausage buns or different ones??
Janice Fung 3-5 same sausage buns lol and about 10 other kinds for late evening snacks 😋
Haha, it wouldn't be a Janice Fung vlog without some road crossing anxiety. 😂
Lin Nyunt It wouldn’t be Eastwood without some road crossing anxiety 😂
5.17 and 14.51 your expressions just awesome..finally the ending byeeee video was nice pls keep that in every video...bcas I'm loving that gesture its specifically suits to you...and you didnt showed the eating of beef pho..you silently eaten on off screen ...😋😊
thanks for watching Murugan!
How did you film the first 30 seconds of your video? You have another videographer? Love your content btw!
Thanks so much!
No I filmed it with a tripod ☺️
Hong Kong Recipe (Hong Kong Cha Chaan Teng) on the korean side! deserves a shout out. That place serves better than Canton imo
Yeah I'm waited so long for this..
Ok I'm going to watch video..😊😋
Come on Janice , how come you have not been to Burwood?
i hate when bakeries wrap their pastries and all in plastic. they could wait to see if the client needs to wrap it to go or not. it's a bake! it should be "breathing" with no wrapping at all...what a waste of plastic!
plus, it makes it all look too "industrial" when maybe was handmade and so fresh from a few hours ago...
Haha I know what u mean re “breathing “!
You missed the secretly best pho restaurant in the area at 14:40 , best Special Beef Pho imo
it's essential to watch your videos since im moving there next month on working holiday visa :D
How exciting!! Let me know if there are any videos on Sydney you’d like to see !
Don't forget the Vietnamese ! The Vietnamese cafe in Rowe Street on the Chinese ( West ) side of the station has the best crisp skin chicken in Sydney. Go to the East side for Korean.
i am new in sydney, this video is life saver!
It's not like that in real life
I’ve just moved to the uk and was missing a bit of home. Thanks for this video and popping by to all the places I loved :)))
Thanks for watching Patty! Were there any spots I’d missed?
Mmmm I’m craving Korean bbq
And ohhhh I miss the Korean bakeries that I used to frequent in NYC
We really need to go to Sydney
great minds! i just responded to a previous comment saying you should come to sydney... come!!!
We like trees. Hahaha You're too funny Janice. Pho is always a good idea. We have a couple of Asian neighborhoods and we love visiting all the supermarkets. We always buy more than we should.
That bloody pedestrian crossing was the bane of my existence when i used to live in Telopea and worked in Chatswood.

West ryde has some decent eating aswell.
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll check out Carlingford! 🙏
Hahahah
“I cause even more congestion”
Hahaha
That sounds very familiar
Sydney is such a treasure trove for Asian cuisine. not sure if you've done an Ashfield episode yet, but that place has awesome dumplings. Wests Leagues Club is freakin awesome for yum cha too.
I love Eastwood :) thanks for posting
SO MUCH IN EASTWOOD! CHINESE SIDE: Bao Bao Bakery (6 Progress Avenue, Chinese side) is another great bread place. It's next to two competing BBQ places too. Tan Viet is okay.

Burwood has some authentic local chinese street foods! You should check it out
Yes absolutely , I’ll add Burwood onto my video idea :D
Love the range of pastries at Breadtop! 😍 Sausage bun is my to-go food when I was a kid, ah memories!
Hehe it’s the best !!
You should try Mr Stonepot in Eastwood
Eastwood definitely looks like our kind of neighborhood! Great food variety
Yea really amazing food variety ! Would it be similar to flushing in nyc?
Eastwood has some of my uni memories for cheap and good food
I think you hit the usual spotssss ahhhh im hungryyyyy again
Yay! What are your go tos?
Omg the breadtop bakery 😍🤤 they have so many delicious looking items there. I love Asian bakeries, the breads and cakes are so pillowy soft. Great video I loved it thank you
thanks for watching! yeah the breads are so pillowy soft, that's such a good way to describe it
Im glad when you like beef pho, i can eat it every day 😆 it’s so me when i went to chips area lol
Chatswood Hurstville Eastwood Campsie Beverly Hills Parramatta, everywhere in Sydney you can find authentic Asian food
Leon H Ashfield has the best Shanghainese food
Strathfield has korean
Hey Janice! So I’ve kinda been binge watching your vids for the past few days haha.. ☺️
Would love to see you venture out west to Cabramatta. It’ll be interesting to see how you think the food compares to Vietnam! Happy to recommend some places ✌🏻
P.s you’re actually the cutest human! I can’t 🙈
Thanks so much I’d love to do one on Cabramatta!
If you can give me some recommendations that’d be awesome ☺️🙏
Janice Fung Yay!
First, some Cabra house rules:
1. Much like Eastwood, please don’t drive here. Anxiety levels will be higher than your cholesterol levels after all the food you will consume 😂
If you do plan on driving, I recommend parking at the Fisher St multi-level parking (on the less busy side of Cabra, also known as the Cambo side) and walking over the railway bridge.
2. Come with an empty stomach and bring some friends so you can try a bit of everything.
3. I know you’re a coffee fan so ignore the seedy men sitting outside most of the cafes and get your sweet Vietnamese caffeine hit from Cafe Nho👌🏻
Now for food...
1. Banh mi thit (pork roll) at KK bakery. Ask for extra pate because you know how it is 😉
2. Pho dac biet at Pho Tau Bay - make sure you ask for sate sauce to add to your sriracha/hoisin meat dip 🔥
3. DIY rice paper rolls at Phu Quoc (next door to Pho Tau Bay). Choose the combination DIY dish so you get sugar cane prawns, grilled pork, fried spring rolls and other goodies to stuff in your rice paper.
4. Viet/Chinese baked goods at A&A Cake shop - go for the egg tarts, steamed pork buns and sesame buns.
5. Beef jerky, fried bananas, assorted fruit juices at Kaysone Sweets. My personal fav is the dried beef jerky (sweet)
6. Wash it all down with 3 for $5 sugar cane juice at Thu Phung N. Ask for your drinks takeaway so you get sealed plastic cups instead of foam cups (you know for the environment n dat)
7. Boba at anywhere along John St. there are literally a million boba shops in Cabra 😂 take your pick
I could literally go on forever but I think that’s a solid start haha. If I catch you filming, I’ll be sure to say hello 🙋🏻♀️☺️
Good luck!
@@TeamConspiracyyy omg thank you so much for the suggestions, so detailed too! i've saved it thank you!
This sounds promising, not a very famous neighborhood but seems like it will be unique
You need one of those pull along trolleys, like the ones old ladies use, so you can carry more shopping back with you! 😂
Yeah 100%! They’d fit so much more than my back pack 🤣
