I worked in a Chinese restaurant from the age of 15 to 18 as a busboy, and this is the most accurate impression i have ever seen a comedian do.
I agree. The only thing I would add is that the cigarette dangling from the chef mouth would sometimes drop ashes into the fried rice. Tasted great.
@noodles
Jimmy's not wrong. I worked under a Cantonese chef for some years. We smoked cigarettes, and sometimes joints, while out of customer view in the back doing prep a few feet from customers, but the hood vents took care of that. The lead cook was super laid back, and smoked while cooking as long as people weren't inside.
What makes many asian cooking styles so fast is that everything is cut to bite size pieces so that it cooks fast and so that you don't need a knife, considered a tool of violence, at the table. I might be rambling. . .
ahhh maybe because he is chinese ??
I am a Chinese takeaway chef, not smoking though. I am the younger generation, I do most swear in English, when the shop getting really busy and mistakes were made, I began to swear in mandarin or my hometown dialect 😂😂
@@jianzhang3393My favorite cook i worked with was named Lim (everyone called him Dale) and I would watch this dude whip up half a dozen meals all the while studying the sheets for the upcoming horse races at Emerald Downs and smoking a cigarette. He is still to this day one of the coolest, most interesting people I've ever met and it's been 25 years since I last saw him.
He said he's not even a chef he just someone's uncle from Hong Kong, im dead!!!!🤣🤣🤣
Uncle Roger?
@@joalee5668 uncle roger is from malaysia i think
@@yuanvirlykaja8677 yea he's Malaysia
Not referring to any comedians, just generalising people who work in Chinese restaurant kitchens are not professionally trained chefs.
@@rainelwy But they give better dishes.
As a guy who works at a Chinese restaurant, I can vouch for how real this really is 😂😂😂
hello,are u a professional chef?Im thinking of becoming a chef.But long hours and low pays stops me
@@ko-kf2nu nope, Im just in grade12 working as a kitchen hand. Not all chefs have low pays though and it depends on where you work, but hey, if you're really passionate about being one, ain't bad to give it a go.
@@ko-kf2nu this is the problem with society, they don't know how hard it is to cook! they thought cooking just like flipping burgers! from which country are you?
@@ko-kf2nu if only life is that easy....
@@ko-kf2nuif you're a chef in a fancy restaurant, the pay is decent
This is literally very true. Their uncle or oldest brother can turn into a chef, a builder or gardener instantly on the 2nd day they come to US.
Ah yes, chinese immigrant males of the older brother or uncle types have a special ability to change character class on the fly
@@AgentPrimus truly, the most OP characters in history
@@AgentDanielCross fax
@@AgentPrimusThey can re-spec their skill trees
@@user-M2CE thats broken af
that uncle is also just using 0.01% of his power
😂😂😂
Bobby Flake has to use all 100% of his powers every time! Or at least that's how it looks on TV.
Its over 9000...
That swearing at the end was smooth as fuck. Lmao
I may be biased because I’m Chinese. But this is absolutely 10000% accurate
what does he say in cantonese when he's swearing / cussing ?
It's like fk Ur mom or sth like that 😂👌🏻
@@alexthomson6430 basically means "f your mum", very commonly used phrase in cantonese.
@@alexthomson6430”屌你” in Cantonese, means “fuck you” or “fuck”
@@alexthomson6430 He greeted your mother(s).
He’s talking about my dad..😂😂😂😂. He was a Chinese chef for 15 years.
Hero
Amen to those kings always good food
😂 hilarious as usual. You're one of the few comedians I would actually pay to see live.
same, he is the only comedian i paid to see live, it was last Nov in Austin
@@lizz7805 so jealous!
Me too!
Me too!
Saw him once he was complaining about how ghetto our city was lol
I worked 2 years kitchen help at a Chinese restaurant. Family fled Mao to Vietnam, then had to flee Vietnam. Three brothers worked the wok in shifts. One was the local light heavyweight body building champ. Coolest dudes ever.
Very true. We a cook just like that ( many) and on my break , I'd have to go buy a case of beer for him.
@@yusefkhan1752and you understand how bad it gets for refugees when they're willing to risk death in discrimination than live in their fcked up country
I lost it at the end when he said "f*** your mother". 😂
thank you for translating. i will take your word for it
@@giadinius i can vouch for that dude. It's a common swear word in cantonese. In chinese, we usually curse a person's mother instead of the person.
That's also the #1 Russian swear word.
He said 屌你 (diu lei) (f*** you), not 屌你媽 (diu lei ma). It's even funnier because there's no subject, just casual random cursing 😂
DLLM haha!
This is hysterically true, as a Frenchman who absolutely adores all of the Chinese cuisines, I never fail to be amazed at how so much deliciousness comes out of a restaurant kitchen in so little time. Speaks volumes over your casual bistro who seem to take an eternity to toss a salad together.
It’s because they have all the sauces and ingredients prepared beforehand. Then they cook it in a wok over a jet engine
@@BobBob-oc5jj outdoor wok fry over untold wok fire burn. I agree with thee in spades and then some. You just turned the local lock to be honest.
灶台點煙是靈魂😂
超細膩
the cantonese swearing at the end, lol
What did he say? 😂
@@diogorodrigues10 "diu lay lo mo" which means f*** your mother and this is the most common cursing phrase in cantonese, together with just 'diu', which just means f***
@@diogorodrigues10 屌 [Diu] , kind of like 'Fuck' in English 😂
I was a delivery driver for a local Chinese restaurant. The owner and his wife were actual Chinese immigrants. They were so nice to me God bless them but their accent was so thick I could hardly understand a word they said to me. Food was excellent and it was just the dude his wife, me, and occasionally another guy in the back to like wash dishes and mop and whatnot. Their 11 year old son would take orders at the counter.
But was he doing his homework while working the counter at the same time?
That kid will be your doctor someday
If that kid is doing homework while taking orders you know the food hit
True story, we finally got decent Sichuan food in my midsized German city about 4 years ago. The menu is amazing, my favorites are 干煸四季豆，红烧茄子，some kind of 土豆丝 and of course 麻婆豆腐。 Chef is skinny old dude in wife beater who only speaks Chinese and works like 5 pans at once, while smoking. 😂
You described my dad pretty well. RIP dad.
I have a picture of my dad in his wife beater and kung fu shoes holding the wok… 😂😂😂 also rip…
Thanks Jim for the laugh. I had depression right now actually, and it seems that I can't cope up with it. Your videos bring me laugh, even for a moment. It meant so much for me. Thank you. Thank you so much.
Hey there, hope you will recover soon... Also, if it's needed, seek help from professional, maybe...😊
stay strong. life is tough for everyone right now, you're not alone.
You got this, I know no one wants to hear it, but it ready does get better. Stay strong love ❤
I feel you bro, I was once in that dark place too.
I'll pray for you so you have a courage and streght to keep on livin.
Omg, I never expect to have this many support. Thanks a lot guys. Your words means a lot for me :')
That’s how you know, you have enter the right restaurant and taste real good Chinese foods
This is every Hong Kong middle aged man's cuss lol
1:08 he does this TOO well lmfao
What was the cuss...? I don't speak Cantonese 😅
@@fardinsanil3473 The cuss = "F**k your mother."
@@fardinsanil3473just literally "fxxk you" in Cantonese😂
@@fardinsanil3473It's mean"fxxk u"
@@fardinsanil3473cursing your mother. I.e. mother f***k*r the universal cross cultural insult 😆
The last words Diu lei Lou Mou I can't stop but agree damn true.
Bro asian people are for real. I worked at a thai restaurant work only two cooks. Both Lao. Not trained at all. Just immigrants from laos. Best damn cooks I've ever seen. They were beasts in the kitchen.
I can attest this is true, I worked in a Chinese delivery place and those dudes are the warlocks of the culinary world..
I am from Hong Kong and once I watched Jimmy youtube.... I laugh and cure my homesick, especially he speaks Cantonese !
Fact. There was this super good Chinese place in tampa area. No matter how busy, food always to 5-10 minutes. 1 guy working counter, 1 guy cooking. Amazing
i went to see the taping in austin, it was the best comedy i've seen. love jimmy, as a chinese immigrant, so many of his jokes really resonate with me
He's the best around
jimmy become more and more funny 😂
Right on! I have watched those guys cooking with the cigarette, in their old rumble shirts soooo many times in Vancouver. And we never saw where the ashes went. Best food.
this is so real bro, my dad owns a restuarant and hes the only cook. Over 100 dishes in the menu as well! And he cooks it super fast
Diu nei lou mei 笑咗出聲 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s the slow cussing at the end that always gets me 😂
I was always wondering how they always had one person in the back cooking everything! Now, I know.😌
as a hongkonger i'm so happy to hear cantonese curse words at the end XD
Can you please translate? 🙏
@@baudolino2727 it just means motherfker
@@baudolino2727It means motherfxxker.
🤣🤣🤣 Thank you Jimmy! Every time you post a video, it makes my day! Looking forward to your upcoming special!
it's always ready in 30 seconds when it comes to chinese restaurants.
🤣😅😂😆 You are so good! Spot on with the cigarette and body posture - Your Fan from Malaysia
Getting lots of Stephen Chow vibes from the Chef. Love it. Haha
Loved the special, please keep them coming.
And now, a request for a short but complete sketch from Jimmy with full-on Cantonese swears. 😆
DLLM is gold
I'M DONE! 😂 My step dad always said the food be done as soon as we hung up the phone when we ordered Chinese.
You cannot beat a SUCCULENT CHINESE MEAL!
My wife's a Thai chef. She knows all the recipes and can make yours better. She also remembers what most of the customers order. It's uncanny.
So cool! She deserves a documentary on her
Some of the best food I ever had was in a smarmy Bangkok alley night market made by a sweaty pregnant Thai woman. Grilled fresh calamari with this nuclear chili sauce.
Speaking of the real heroes, we want to see you do some more cooking Jimmy! We know you've been busy, but we know what your real love is. Give the people what they want: more Jimmy's Kitchen!!! 🙏
I just noticed he's bending over to the fire on the stove to light his cigarette lol
When he lights the cigg on the burner man I fuckin died
This never gets old I swear.
"Chef, table 7 wants to check on their chow mein. It's been 20 minutes"
" 屌你老母 想快去食快餐吖嘛 "
Jimmy O… the more you see him! In smaller interviews especially.. you can not escape loving him!! He is really smart! He has the male Jisoo magic!!!😅🙌🏻🙌🏻
He is so good, love him
Can’t wait to watch your new special 🤙🏽
Please do more sketches with this cook guy character! ❤😂
With this cig in his mouth he looked like Bill Hicks xD
As a guy that goes to Chinese restaurants, I seen that shit live
When I go to a Chinese restaurant, there better be a real Chinese chef instead of Hell's Kitchen reject
Is it wrong that I make sure an Asian is making my food? 🤦🏻♀️
The cuss got me 😂😂😂😂
So what you're saying is every culture has a cooking cussing chain smoking uncle with a heart a pure gold!
Essentially
😂
Chinese restaurant kid, this is so fcukin accurate
Right on Jimmy ! Love ❤
I really dig your work, Jimmy!
Jimmy is right about the chef who is cooking the meal that is so vivid and impressed!
Please come to Hong Kong 😂❤I wanna watch your show so bad
That last DLLM is real Hong Kong authentication 😂
I love this guy, so funny.
Still rocking in 2023 bruh ! 🤟✌️👍
using the stove to light a cigarette XD why is it so accurate.
His impression is spot on!
That moment see a Canto chef smiling and cursing at the same time, you know that day is a good day ~
Man, I'm really hungry for some Chinese food now.
That is so true, they do have many items on menu and exactly that gangstar look 😂😂
As his voice cracked when he said "Hong Kong" that cemented the joke!😂
I adore one of the local Chinese food places I go to all the time and he nails every second of that atmosphere.
Dude, he has gotten soooo good.
This is too accurate...🤣🤣🤣
I cracked at the end 😂
So absolutely true
We want the full showww
Jimmy Yang forever
I just love you so much 😂😂😂😂😂😂 you’re amazing!!! Thank you for being born this world❤️👍🏼
Lmao I love this guy!😂😂
this is so funny and the joke os so spot on😂
My uncle (who passed away) was a chef at a large Chinese restaurant back in the 80s. Didn't wear the wife beater but that cigarette was always hanging from his lips like the way Jimmy showed
Lighting the cigarette off the stove was hilarious
Mans a comedy genius
Good stuff jimmy🎉
FYI for those who didn’t understand the cuss he said “fuck youuuuu” 😂 This legit was my grandfather 100% down to the cigarette. My family’s restaurant became locally famous because of his gorgeous cooking and he didn’t have a single ounce of training. He was just naturally talented and knew what worked and was completely self taught and his food was still more delicious than all those Michelin stars. Food is in our culture and just runs through the genes lol.
Thank you❤ kitchen workers like that are the real heros
" Chan is Missing", 8:50, it's pretty much a depiction of that Chinese chef.
that's a legit canto curse word 🤣
Hello Jimmy, I am your new fan from Hong Kong! I like your show! Hope you may self identified as Hong Kongese as we embrace the Cantonese language and Hong Kong culture!
Lighting the cigarette on the burner with no hands is the most real shit, my stepuncle Yi is like this (though I'm pretty sure he's Hmong, but still, it's a whole mood).
"Fck you guys..." in Cantonese he swore in the end🤣🤣🤣
You really crack me up 😂😂😂
Cusses casually in Cantonese! I love it.
The most authentic Hong Kong curse word at the end of video
100% accurate on the cussing
Jimmy！Jimmy！🥰
true 😂… I remember in the 90’s in the Bronx I used to see the Chinese in the back cooking … zero stress 😂
