Hi!!!!!! This was filmed before I moved, I filmed all the chinatowns before I left.
Are you planning to go to japan anytime soon
december :-)
+Strictly Dumpling What kinda places should we be looking forward to?
Strictly Dumpling i doubt u like japan cuz food is totally different than what u like, cuz u like more spicy oily northern chinese style food which is opposite to what japanese food is like
I hope he films the flight and the hotels
I am gonna visit Vancouver real soon so start sending me your recommended places via Facebook or Instagram messenger :-)
Strictly Dumpling please tell me when you're coming to Toronto
Are you planning to go to japan anytime soon
crystal mall food court in burnaby and mustdo No.9 chinese restaurant in Richmond, most legit chinese restaurant, open 24/7, packed even at 4am
Omg this makes me so excited!!! Try Wang's Shanghai Cuisine :)
I didn't know this was going to be such a difficult question, BUT:
1. Song Huong Vietnamese Restaurant - If you're a fan of Vietnamese spicy beef noodles (bun bo hue), BUT I also suggest getting the Bo Ba Lot (juicy, savory grilled meat wrapped in la lot leaves).
2. Maruatama - Japanese chicken ramen! So comforting, and rich. Different from the usual pork-based ramen.
3. Kirin Seafood Restaurant - I would just go for the durian mochi during dim sum hours...
4. Au Petite Cafe - Ignore the noodle/soup dishes. Get the banh mi, spring rolls, and coffee! Banh mi is a lot more simple than most places, but everything is done just right.
5. Eat sushi.
6. Mamalee - Hainanese chicken
7. Aberdeen Mall - Fried chicken wings, Hainanese chicken
8. Crystal Mall - Soup dumpling, Chinese BBQ
Good to know those off-manhattan places. Heard about flushing china town before, and now I can see why.
The french cooking guy
Finally a team adventure. Its so cute to see them having so much fun together.
I've walked by all of these places so many times. I can't wait to go and try them 😊 awesome video
Great to see Dan back. Hope you can do more videos with Dan more frequently
+Strictly Dumpling, this brings back a lot of memories. I lived in Taiwan from Summer '59 to Summer '61 when my father (U.S. Army) was assigned there with MAAG Taiwan. I was in the 5th and 6th grades. We stayed a few weeks at the Grand Hotel then moved to Tian Mu. The people were wonderful and the food was fantastic! Thank you for taking me back in time......I will never forget it.
I'm a huge fan of your various videos, and this one has been my favorite! I'll be rewatching this one next time I'm in NY!
It's so good to Dan & Mikey together again!! I hope things change so they can at least be on the same coast again.
Carol Lynch what happend?
Volker Hofstetter Dan and Yi had some kind of personal issue and had to move back to NY.
Carol Lynch actually these two don't jive together because dude on right side always has opposing opinion to his host
22utoo you didn't watch their goodbye video. They've been best friends for almost ten years.
yeah but they had fun with their opposing opinions :) that's why they ask us vote for team mike or dan :3 and they agreed on many things too.
I go to New York every summer and I love new world mall, my aunt used to have a store there
Flushing is my heart and soul
Derp____ ._. I love the downstairs of the New World Mall, the bubble tea and noodles are just too good!
Thanks for this fantastic tour!!!!!!! You always "take me" to the greatest places, and have so many great tidbits and info. Plus, any trip with Dave is the best trip ever! heheheh
I love how passionate you guys are about food! This video made my mouth water... Keep teasing me :)
Awww miss this dynamic duo.. You guys are so enjoyable to watch
I like to see you guys back together
You are the best tour guide Mikey!🍜 Thank you for sharing all your experiences!🌷
Great video! Thank you guys for taking the time to show us all of these great places to eat!
ok that tea place where you guys got the rose milk tea and the watermelon mint looks amazing!!! im getting that the next time im going there.
VIPyellowwolfy21 sadly that place is permanently closed :(
aww :( was gonna go, I used to pass by it often
I love these channel when the guys get together
Thank you Mike and Dan for showing us around Flushing!
I truly enjoyed all three video sequels. GREAT job guys. Excellent combination ! Thank you for sharing. I did subscribe. 🤣
so happy to see you both together again 😊🙂
I know! I wanted to help that guy so badly!
I live in Flushing, NY and I basically go to Main Street everyday. I remember all these places and trust me, these places are amazing! Thank you for visiting!
Hell yes, i've been looking for a video like this that explores Flushing China Town. Now I know where to go when I explore this weekend!
Dan does the best faces ever. He's so expressive. Loved this video guys xxxxx
at first I didnt thought I'll miss dan this much until I no longer see him for a while
There are legit 9 chinatowns in nyc.
Manhattan Chinatown: The postcard chinatown, the oldest. Mainly Cantonese and Fujianese. Nowadays it serve as a gathering place for out of state chinese, because thats where all the buses stop at. Probably more chinese doing business than living here now. Lots of shops and mainly cantonese food. Alot of chinese who works outside of nyc will go here during their day off and buy whatever they need. As far as I can tell, the manhattan chinatown is getting smaller. Few years ago this was the only option for hosting wedding for chinese people, but recent years more chinese are choosing to have their wedding host at brooklyn and flushing.
Flushing ChinaTown: The most modern and vibrant, and youngest among the three. Main street was a perfect place for ethnic enclave and flushing really use it to its full potential. Mainly northern Chinese, Korean, and used to have some large population of taiwanese there as well. Alot of young chinese immigrants due to the fact that it has a large number of condos available which favors international students from china and korea. Flushing Chinatown really shift away from the traditional chinatown's vibe. It is actually more closer to what china's shopping area would look like nowadays. Despite that, most of the chinese here dont really live in flushing due to the fact that flushing doesn't really have alot of houses available. Its mainly condos and commercial buildings.
8th Avenue Chinatown: This is a complicated one. If you look at the subway map of N train, every station after 8th avenue consists a small chinatown of its own all the way to kings highway. Mainly Fujianese, used to be all cantonese 10years ago. Now its about 80% fujianese to 20% cantonese. Recent years alot of international students starting to live here due to the cost of rent is the lowest among three. This is also the most crowded chinatown because of the way brooklyn apartments were built back in the early 20th century. Each 2 family house in brooklyn chinatown could potential hold more than 6 families inside (illegally). A tiny 1 family house in 8th avenue can cost as much as 2 million dollars.
satellite chinatowns: sort by population(sort of):
Bensonhurst(brooklyn): This is where most of the cantonese from 8th avenue moved to. Place is growing rapidly and is mostly unknown for anyone living outside of brooklyn despite having some of the best cantonese restaurants.
Elmhurst(queens): its like the younger sister of flushing minus the korean population, most of the taiwanese used to live here.)
Corona(queens): back in around 2008s, alot of chinese who couldn't afford houses in other big chinatowns starting to move here. Now the housing price is as high as the others.
18th Avenue(brooklyn): originally the first satellite chinatown to 8th avenue. Mostly cantonese and also alot of international students. Its the older brother of Bensonhurst but is now forgotten.
Avenue U(brooklyn): another chinatown based near the N train line. Again, mostly cantonese.
Whitestone/North College Point(queens): Did I say the housing price of corona is really high now? Yup, so this is where chinese are buying for the past few years. Not many chinese business here yet.
Others:
From exit 8 to 12 of staten island expressway(staten island):
If you want to buy house near any of these chinatown above, you're looking at more than 800thousands. And it goes up by the population of that chinese community. Staten Island is the only uncharted place where there are lots of affordable houses and many younger generation chinese are willing to move there now.
West Bayridge(Brooklyn): There are about 10 chinese shops here at the moment. Has a good amount of chinese population here but can't call it a chinatown yet.
East Jackson Height(queens): This is an awkward chinese community. Barely any chinese business here, but there are large population of chinese here somehow. it is next to a huge hispanic population which chinese community get along with pretty well. But unlike other community (like how italian community from bayridge are completely driven off) that will usually move out after more chinese moving in, hispanic community dont seem to mind.
Overall, the development of nyc chinatown goes like this. Near subway station? Plus. Cheap housing? Plus. Very politically incorrect, but No black population? Plus. If a place meets all these requirement, it is very likely to have a chinatown form there very quickly. Until the housing price goes up then they move on to the next one. Also Southwest Brooklyn may someday form a mega chinese community due to the fact that there are atlease 9 small chinese communities scattered around the R and N train lines. If you ever take train on those two, you'll notice its almost all chinese in the cart beyond 59th street station of coney island bound.
lmaoo u must got at least a m.s degree in chinese demographics of nyc
man you should do a video on this
Thanks for typing all of that! I love to learn and appreciated that write up!
Flushing Chinatown is also the dirtiest of places, dunno what it attributed to and the rudest of people all clueless and ignorant of manners
And what? You know how many Chinese people live in flushing -_- like 100,00 - 300,000 or even more Chinese people live in flushing...
Thanks so much for your videos! I've been binge watching your videos and luckily I live in NYC so I have a long list of places I need to try thanks to you!
That was great guys. Thank for showing it. Never knew about it!
Yayyyy I'm so happy to see Dan's face again!

Fantastic tour - thank you! I'm adding this to my Queens playlist!
Thanks for posting! You inspired me to book the upcoming long weekend in Flushing!
very nice to see Dan again :)
I'm going to use this as part of my NYC travel guide! If you can create a Google map with the places of interest marked, it'll be highly useful!
tinyPlayBreak Agreed, after watching these videos I took subway 7 to Flushing's last stop and blanked out a bit on where to go, besides new world mall lol
Nice video! I just wanted to say I'm a Chinese American too and I love your night market videos and Chinatown videos! They really bring me joy seeing these foods that are so good and bring me the memories but unfortunately are not in my area of America!
im so glad someone did a video in flushing, i've never seen anyone review my city before :)

Fantastic. Lived in Flushing in the 70s when I met my husband a Flushing native. Going tomorrow to check these places out. Thanks.
your friend is so cute, love his enthusiasm!!!!!
they use to make vids together all the time lol
+Wolf Wood i have seen alot.of Mikeys solo videos but not many with other people. i am working my way through all of them. Honestly, the girls usually annoy me slightly. idk why. they are Americanized and kind of ditzy, and just not fun to watch.
hey man its your opinion but i just love seeing them together again.
They're both cute :3
You want his egg roll
Thanks guys saw your Video I work in flushing I drive for NYC TRANSIT sometimes the Q44 thanks for giving some info on great places to eat!!!!" Kelp up the good work! Found out thru DNA I am part Asian & other nationalities so getting into the culture my culture!
Cool that's my bus, very convenient to get to queens I'm right across the bridge at that cross Bronx stop, I want to explore Flushing but just haven't known where to go
This is great, I have seen many of Mike's food videos, and I like this theme best. "Mike's recommended places to eat in so so city." Hope to see more like this.
Our family lived in Flushing from 1964-1968. I went to school from K-4. Parsons, Bowne, Northern, Main, Roosevelt, Union, etc. were our stomping grounds. Lots of changes over the years... er, decades. I'd love to get back there. I moved out of the area in 1977, and came back for a visit in 1997. I tried to drive through the neighborhood, but the traffic was ridiculous. Loved watching this video.
Miss the bromance :/ I hope you're still good friends at least
Hmmmm????
Nope..in one of video..mike said they just move on with their own life and lost contact.
@@M3gart0443 in which video?
Mike went into one of them spa as a boy and came out as a man 😉
hahahahahahahhhahahahhahhahaaaahahahhahahhhhhahhahah
I'm willing to bet Mike still goes there on a regular basis.
I lived in Flushing 25 years before I moved to Connecticut 13 years. Ago , completely different now , thanks for sharing guys good memories
This is one of the best you guys review.
Hey Mike, I grew up and still live in Astoria, Queens. Love the borough and feel like I haven't even touched enough good spots in Flushing. Using your video as reference for the future, have eaten at some really solid spots in Elmhurst (Near the hospital) though. Thanks so much!
poor bastard on the stairs @4:42 lol
thank you for making this series it was excellent
I have to tell that this is the best video you guys ever made . Really ... exposing the best place to eat . Anyway thanks guys
you two are such lovely dorks.
Lol that feeling when you recognize Paris Baguette from all the Kdramas...
Hey Mike, me and friends are heading to Flushing today to try several of your recommendations! Thanks for so many wonderful videos, love your channel.
Love the content of these videos, what to get, where to go, and perhaps as important, where NOT to go. Great stuff.
LOL.... I so envy you guys.... Just eating good food..everyday.... my life really sucks
Phillip Wong I'm eating pizza -_-

Got all excited thinking you had met up with Dan, then realised it was an old video 😩
DAAANNN!!!!!
I walked through Chinatown in manhattan to see it but these 3 part videos are like a whole different world of Chinatown, brilliant videos
Glad you guys get together again:))) keep up the good work!
He finally made his corrections that Manhattan's Chinatown is both Cantonese and Fuzhou. However, he is still giving the wrong information about Brooklyn's Chinatown.
Brooklyn's Chinatown was once a small Cantonese enclave, but is now overwhelmingly a very large Fuzhou enclave. The Cantonese have migrated to Bensonhurst and Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn, which has resulted in newer little Cantonese Chinatowns being established in various sections of Bensonhurst and a section of Sheepshead Bay.
Go to Homecrest Avenue, Q train to Avenue U. There is a small little Chinatown emerging there.
its been emerging lmao
supertrouper
Dan looks like the guy in the Invisalign commercial 🤭 is his name dayin Chen??
Aww .. Wish this was posted before my trip. I was just there over the weekend. Had a great time and will be back again and explore some more.
I've lived here past 42 years and still love it very much. You should do a show of all the great Korean restaurants on Murray street.
I want the bottle and the glass egg from the tea place
GAproductions don't bother the place is close ,the place was call hao Shi lai
@@ingridrivas8303 :V
I'm born and raised in NYC. I think I've only been in Bronx or flushing 3 times in 17 years. I never even knew that flushing has their own Chinatown, wow.
Citrine F please turn off your computer, open the door and walk outside. Wil ya
Ha. I've lived in NYC for 30 years and never been to the Brooklyn Chinatown.
Citrine F, that speaks volume about you
Been living in Flushing for 8 years and didn't know that there are so many places to check out.
Thanks!
great video guys! I'm a Flushing/Elmhurst native myself. NOW I know why all my spots are popular!
Queens is the best.
Jet Li and Jackie Chan, who could've asked for more.
haha 😄😄
I'm so glad my hometown is getting so many props ❤
Love your guys' honesty!!!!
I'm going to miss the best bromance on RUclips.
Kevin J. that'd be Rhett and Link
Hey guys. I like all of your channels and vids. But one thing Ive been waiting for is your favorite Korean bbq in flushing. I know you've gone to picnic garden but They have moved. Is the your fave? I just wind up going to woo chon not the best. Could you please post something on that subject or just let me know here. Thx
I can no longer recommend any all you can eat korean bbq after having it on the west coast :-)
Strictly Dumpling wow its that bad over here. Ok thx for the reply.
picnic garden didn't close! they moved down the street. cleaner, nicer,same food
Shannon Sha the best kbbq is a hole in the wall place that only koreans go to. i might have my korean card revoked for the reveal. its called kim cha yeol galbi on 163rd street
Thanks, Hanseul S. Chae!! I'll check it out this weekend! Keep ur card close...
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE WHEN YOU GUYS DO TRIPS LIKE THIS IT'S LIKE I'M THERE WITH YOU BUT I'M IN SAN DIEGO ;) THANK YOU TY TY TY
I'm new to these guy, but they're so cute and so full of information, I had to subscribe. Great job gents.
4:40-4:48 come on man you's couldnt help that dude carry that thing up the stairs :(
lmao "very chinesey"
I used to live in Queens. The mountain house was my favorite place to go. Good memories thanks for that.
This was such a fun video! Thank you for sharing it.
I live in flushing
Sammme
DAMN Mikey and Dan! ^_^ you guys come near the restaurant and food stall to tak shit about their products LoL #thuglife :-D
17:58 I rewind that over and over "HYPED" so cute. LMFAO DAN i love you, come back!
He's SOOOO cute! 😍
Awesome film!! thank you. when I am in NYC I always look for your suggestions!! xiexieni!! Food is life!!!
Great video! Why not go into the spas?
They are rub and tug sex spas
prostitution
kimberly miller LOL I honestly thought they were just cheap asian massage parlors 😅
In those kind of massage parlor, the masseuse will try to "encourage" you to order their special service, which is annoying if you just want massage. If you want special service in the first place, you can get better at other place.
Asia Broadbent, did you live in some kinda bubble?
4:42 OMG guys, stop talking and go help this poor man !!!! xD
that's his job......
Awesome video... Thanks for the tour, learned allot.
I would actually love to live in flushing. I mean I hate the 7 train but its whatevers. I love the hustle and bustle. I love how flushing is like a mini but yet large city within a city. Love it!
Not being Chinese or Asian I'm really hesitant to go into places like these, cuz I don't feel welcomed or just lost in translation. I really do want to try these but I don't think I ever will lol
Spliff Films just point at the food you want.
I kind of feel the same way. But who cares, go w a friend of make a day of it
can someone clarify why we shouldn't go into massage places?
Teastrings because of their "special services"
they're the ones where you can get a "happy ending"..
because it all changes when they ask you to turn over.
because 1) You gonna get laid inside. 2) If you dont wanna get laid, you shouldn't go there for an authentic massage because the skills of the girls in these kinds of sleazy establishment suck. They are good at sucking, not massaging
Teastrings, are you for real?.....wasn't it obvious?....maybe you're too young
Went to Flushing twice. Was an incredible experience each time.
Yes I been waiting for this video
was this before dan left california
maybe he's visiting
He says he is going to miss one of the restaurants... so implies before he left for SF?
Why never go into the spa? :3
LUL old driver
well，special service，you know
maybe whore house.. must likely "rub & tug" massage parlour... let to figure out that term....
Brothels in disguise.
expanding on what other people have said those type of spa and massage places are also hotbeds of human trafficking
Lol it’s awesome seeing you guys go through places I’ve been since I live in queens and flushing is 15 mins away on the 7.
I was born in Flushing have been in 20 years...thanks for the video ESPECIALLy the places to avoid and the tourist traps!
