Probably the best group of guests that I've seen in one of your videos! Looks like the restaurant actually lived up the hype of one of the top 100 restaurants in NYC. The food looked so delicious. Gotta love the old school cash only policy.
Cheers to Tung, Steven and Nellie and you too Danny. Beef chow fun with bean sprout? 🤣 Shrimp chips with the half chicken and the Shrimp with Walnuts all looked delicious 😊. Fresh flounder is hard to cook with out over cooking. Good food 🥟🥢👍
That was a great meal with great company. Steve did a fantastic job ordering. Everything looked great. I almost thought you would eat the pickled vegetables. I need to visit Hop Lee when I visit NYC again.
Hop Lee and Hop Kee were the restaurants my family frequented...I remember when they were on Bayard street. Their food was always delicious...by the way it tastes better when you are eating with family and friends good video.
So i was having dinner with my kids and they werent eating their vegtables...i asked why...they said Danny the Medic sez veg is bad for you.....I said who the heck is Danny? They showed me his channel so i watched a few....during dinner tonight they said Hey Dad where is the soda? I said tap water only for now on....Danny sez its good an also cheap....they were stunned....thanks Danny you are saving me lots of dough....
This is definitely one of your 3 best videos. I think this is only the second video with a woman. The other one you filmed in Texas. So those are 2 of your best 3 videos. Hop Lee, the food looks delicious. Your friend really knows how to order!
Food is better with company, Steve, Nellie, and the Tung-ster. I could see other Asians eating which is always a good sign! That lobster looked fresh unlike the frozen ones in Vegas.
My family has been coming here since 1983. You guys ordered my usual. The only thing I don’t usually get is the beef chow fun. Their eggplant with chicken is what I get every time I’m there. I love the friendly staff there as well
Haha! Love to see Steve is in New York with DtM, Tung and Nelly😄 And yes, I am one of those viewers😅I think Steve and Tung looks alike😂🤣 Happy Friday!!!
OMG Lobster Cantonese is my fav Chinese DIsh, and my favorite seafood is the wall there - Conch, which I always get when I got to Chinatown. (Which is not often unfort).
Thanks for sharing your visit to one of my favorite restaurants! Steve really knows how to order the good stuff. Spot on reviews by Nelly and Tung. The pickled vegetable is my favorite with squid. Used to have that dish with my family 2-3 times per month. Great to support a local business, too!
All the food looked Great, Steve should have respected Danny by not ordering the Beef Chow Fun without Bean Sprouts or Bran sprouts on the side (that's a respectful gesture to do) all food looked amazing. Nelly was graceful and her eating etaquit on Camara was Great a pleasure to watch and see her comments. Glad Tung was off Camara as he cannot eat gracefully what we witnessed today he learning by watching Nelly. Steve always nice to see.
thank u for watching: what we have here about the bean sprouts is that for me, if it is the first video of a BCF at any place, I order it the way it normally comes as per the design of the executive chef. This way, the viewers get to see it that way.. When I am NOT filming, or if I been to a place before to film, I would then be free to order without the bean sprouts. Nelly is indeed a very polite eater, and I do realize that tung is the kinda guy that knaws on bones like a rabid dog.. HAHAHAHAHAHA
Omg! I’m drooling over here 🤤🤤So nice to see you enjoying a meal with some friends. Nelly is so pretty. Love her curly hair. 😊I guess the 5th person who’s hand I saw drinking the tea didn’t wanna be seen 😁 I sure miss good Chinese food at a restaurant. I’ll just have to keep cooking my own . Great video.
Did not know they were rated one of the top 100 restaurants in NYC. A go to place for me, old school Cantonese food, love the lobster, Hong Kong style Chow mein, crispy duck.
Good food with good friends is the ultimate feast. Can’t believe your total bill was only slightly over a hundred dollars. Cash only is a smart formula to stay in business for over a hundred years.
So delicious, authentic, and cheap for all that food! 😊 wish i was enjoying that too Danny! Im so far away in Australia. And here in Adelaide its tough to find chinese style soups like broth and double boiled soups such as pork ribs soup or with wintermelon.
Used to go to Tai Tung a lot. I never go on Dearborn any more. Is it still on Dearborn? I kind of got hooked on white sauce when I was in OC. @@easystreetwithjen
Old school meal. This meal could serve any city with Chinatown I like it. Too bad no clams with black beans. What with the beef chow fun! No ask for more Wok Hei!! LOL.
When i heard Steve ordering I said to myself "Oh man, some many vegetables Steve must really hate Danny" 😂. Then when I saw the losbster dish I said to myself "Oh man, Danny might have to wash the dishes" 😂. Everything looked pretty good and from the check very reasonable. Danny no more licking the crab, you might hallucinate.🤣
That looked like some old school Chinese banquet style spread. Steve knows how to order it up. My family always used to go out every other summer in the late 70s to San Fran, and we'd eat at those " cha lau." This reminded me of those days.
Hello Danny do you know where in Manhattan Chinatown restaurant that sell the big Lotus Leah rice.most of the restaurants I’ve visited only serve the small ones where you get two.I prefer the bigger one I’m thanking you in advance.
I had to check out who Nelly was as DTM spoke positively in his recent video. Nelly is a cutie... she looks like tennis player Emma Raducanu. I hope she can appear in more videos.
Danny my dude. I have to stop watching your videos man. As someone who grew up in Brooklyn and lived there for 25 years - this makes me miss Chinese food every single time. And I'm going to be honest, I haven't watched the whole video yet, but that chow fun looked LEGIT. The meat looked charred and the noodles looked perfect. And I know you don't like bean sprouts as a running gag but man, so good guys. I'm gonna smile while you guys chow (sorry) down on that chow fun. I just hope it's actually good lol
if you think YOU have to stop, just imagine my own suffering as I spend hours editing the footage, looking at the delish food over and over and over...
.In a recent video you mentioned a viewer making comments about your clothing. That got me wondering also why do you alway wear the same shirt and hat. Why don't you ever take off the hat. By the way, the Columbia jacket you had on in the Big Wong video looked great on you. I would also like the know a little about your travel between NY and Las Vegas, whats the best deal, best time of day you travel and whatever else you would like to share. One other thing, when you are in Las Vegas have you ever thought about going to one of the small gambling towns near Las Vegas? There are two nice ones, to the south is Laughlin, NV and to the north is Mesquite, NV take a look and see what you think, keep up the good work watch you all the time
I am the medic, I wear the same darn thing all the time. this is to better be able to identify me in case of emergency because when I work, I dont wear a recognizable uniform. I have over 25 of these shirts and about 10 of the exact same hat. I bring this over to my youtube channel for the exact same reason, but this is now called "branding". I fly whatever is cheapest except for frontier and spirit, I look on google flights to see the prices, I been to laughlin, I almost died in the heat but it is a great smaller thing with lower limits and lower priced foods, not been elsewhere yet.
Probably the best group of guests that I've seen in one of your videos! Looks like the restaurant actually lived up the hype of one of the top 100 restaurants in NYC. The food looked so delicious. Gotta love the old school cash only policy.
Love that Steve ordered more interesting dishes, and yet gave DTM his favourite Beef Chao Fun!
This place looks legit! Thanks for the getting Tung and Steve together.

Hop Lee and Hop Kee were the restaurants my family frequented...I remember when they were on Bayard street. Their food was always delicious...by the way it tastes better when you are eating with family and friends good video.
Looked good! The pickled cabbage (I was raised calling it "sin choi") looked interesting with squid. We usually get it with pork.
Danny licking the lobster shell says it all... lol. 9.9 from Steve for the lobster too! Very comprehensive review!
So i was having dinner with my kids and they werent eating their vegtables...i asked why...they said Danny the Medic sez veg is bad for you.....I said who the heck is Danny? They showed me his channel so i watched a few....during dinner tonight they said Hey Dad where is the soda?

Haven't been in that area since after 9/11
thats awesome!
at 11:19 omg, Tung is talking, i love it!! 😊
That’s the best clap back👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Everything looks amazing!
That place looks fantastic. Thanks DTM for the review.
i give Nelly a 10.5 rating! You better keep her close Danny..nice girl!
This is definitely one of your 3 best videos. I think this is only the second video with a woman. The other one you filmed in Texas. So those are 2 of your best 3 videos. Hop Lee, the food looks delicious. Your friend really knows how to order!

Nice selection of a variety of food! AWESOME! Hi Tung!
Everything looks great, have to go back soon

Tung speaks? Awesome!! Great video!!👍👍
👋Tung, Steve, Nelly and Danny! Oh my gosh, the food looks so good. Pssstttt, Danny, Psssstttt Nelly is gorgeous, just saying Danny. 😉
Wow! Huge Danny the Medic scores! Except the beef chow fun! It has to be superior to hit the 8.5 or 9! 😂👍

@@dannythemedic thank you for the explanation
I have eaten at Hop Lee countless times and they never disappoint. They only take cash.
We got Hop Li, OG in Chinatown. Love their food.
Everything looked delicious!
So good!
Omg! I’m drooling over here 🤤🤤So nice to see you enjoying a meal with some friends. Nelly is so pretty.

Maybe that’s Mrs. Steve😊
@@KC-newmeagain, it's my nephew crashed the dinner😅

Enjoyed the review and Nelly is adorable.

What!!🫨 Nobody tried the shrimp chips. So very good when fresh😋😋😋 The food looked very delicious 😋. What kind of greens were in the soup?
That's why they give you picture menus!
Whooooooooooooooooaaaa all looks delish!!!
So delicious, authentic, and cheap for all that food! 😊 wish i was enjoying that too Danny! Im so far away in Australia. And here in Adelaide its tough to find chinese style soups like broth and double boiled soups such as pork ribs soup or with wintermelon.
You make tap water look so good!
Dear lord, Danny. I'd be squealing in guttonous ecstacy! Great price too. NYC is a long hike from Seattle.
It looks like Tai Tung in Seattle has many of the same dishes. They've been open since 1935, so they must be doing something right.
Used to go to Tai Tung a lot. I never go on Dearborn any more. Is it still on Dearborn? I kind of got hooked on white sauce when I was in OC. @@easystreetwithjen
Everything looked wonderful. Did the $112 include gratuity?
yes, but only because Steve, a loyal customer of theirs got us a discount! Many places do that for some of their longest most loyal customers!
@@dannythemedic Gotta love a discount!
Nelly looks like an athlete, a soccer player in fact! :)
Pam says on your next visit to Vegas need to go to China Mama to compare the walnut shrimp
Sounds GREAT! lets do it!
Danny I love there Dry Beef Chow Fun!!!
TUNG gets another free meal, thats 2 and counting
Good one.. you got your crew with you..
Love you get the crew to rate the food - can see you trying not to laugh hard hahah
Danny, who is this Nellie? You two would make a cute couple 😊
All the food looks great 😊
if they marry, have the reception at this restaurant!!!!
Danny licking the lobster shell 😆
it was soooo tasty
must be really good, 1st time seeing DTM licking his fingers, lol
Old school meal. This meal could serve any city with Chinatown I like it. Too bad no clams with black beans. What with the beef chow fun! No ask for more Wok Hei!! LOL.

i miss those cha lau meals... my favorites were the 80's ones that were when ppl got married.. delish!
@@dannythemedic Absolutely! I miss those too. They were the best. Loved it when the bride and groom would come over and toast each table.
Hello Danny do you know where in Manhattan Chinatown restaurant that sell the big Lotus Leah rice.most of the restaurants I’ve visited only serve the small ones where you get two.I prefer the bigger one I’m thanking you in advance.
that is one thing of the things I do not eat. so I cant tell ya
I had to check out who Nelly was as DTM spoke positively in his recent video. Nelly is a cutie... she looks like tennis player Emma Raducanu. I hope she can appear in more videos.
WOW she kinda does
GOOD EATS.
Very reasonable beef chow fun @ $9.00
Yum
I love Tung
Man don’t let Steve get too close or Tung is going to be jealous!
Danny my dude. I have to stop watching your videos man. As someone who grew up in Brooklyn and lived there for 25 years - this makes me miss Chinese food every single time.

@@dannythemedic True, but you do get to eat it after all :D
🤠🤠🤠❤❤❤❤
5 bowls of soup...do we have a mystery diner?
My nephew crashed the dinner😅
lol there are always some viewers with the super keen eye!
112 is very cheap , plus looks good
Danny or anyone else reading could y’all please recommend a few dishes thank you in advance 🍴
the lobster was so good!
Which do you like better, Hop Kee or Hop Lee?
prior to this video, I havent set food in either for maybe a decade!
Did Steve say his Surname is “Kwan”?
Is Wo Hop still around?
I saw it across the street
Ok thanks, its been there a looong time@@dannythemedic
What does the rude soup taste like?,lol
LOL
😋😋😋😋👏👏👏👏
Tung had a disappointed look on his face which seemed to say, "where are the chicken feet"?
Why did you guys change from chopsticks to forks ?
it was on the table when I got there
Actually 100 years old restaurant is more impressive than top 100 restaurant 😂

You showed $112 dollars in cash, was that the total? If it was then that was a good deal. Is Nellie the future Mrs Medic?
The prices there are very low! here is the menu I found on the web www.hopleenyc.com/ Nelly is just Nelly
How does NY have better Cantonese food than Honolulu.?
does it???
So…..very….boring this time
.... 🫣. so what do u wanna see more of?
