pot hot pot head there you go get the shirt down below before my dumplings get here snack on my tamale and my rice rolls i love this question if you think fish balls for breakfast doesn't work you can come and try those peanut sauce sesame chilies and just luxuriously silky and chopped steamed noodles and bouncy fish balls soaked right in with a hint of white pepper the guy was wrong this is not a good tamale it's a fantastic tamale sweet aromatic horn come to my mouth got an idea [Music] soak this already amazing tamale and some peanut and chili sauce this crossover needs to happen professionally oh it's so good i'm excited to try this this is a new place so this is the black pepper shopping show means like roasted toasted being like a like a pancake and this is a really popular street food in china people will be on the side of the road they would have these like brickwork mud ovens and they would just be cooking these shelving oh yeah [Music] it kind of tastes like the uh black pepper buns again in taiwan look how flaky this is do not ever count on this thing for important stuff okay because just way too fleeky don't depend on it meat onions black pepper just a massive beef filling it is as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside i mean look at this bit of filling there's look at that over stuffed bun i'm gonna dip this in the sauce too three dollars come on rather spend three bucks on a mcmuffin or this baby right here that's the right answer swipe right on that super like this thing i wish there's like food tender i really do i'm just waiting for my dumpling turnip puffs get those when you come here crunchy radish and meat inside a little bit of shrimp i was saying how flaky the last pancake was this thing will forget to show up at his own wedding this is the sweet version the red bean this thing tastes like your mama and my mama warm and sweet and melt your heart i got my dumplings what i love about this place is that the dumplings come out perfectly plump every single time sometimes you open soup dumplings update they crumble they shrivel up not these babies first of all i started with a peanuty wonton little vinegar in the hot oil with ginger start off the regular soup dumpling well you don't have to do it this way i like enjoying my soup before i munch on the dumplings everybody have a little vinegar and chili so now i get to eat you all right now that i have had a couple of pork dumplings in my system i can move on to the veggie one don't think i could have started with this one though when it gets a little cooler i like to just put the whole thing in my mouth just get that great porky first yeah let's see you do that skittles would you prefer to eat a bunch of candy that sticks to your teeth for the next week or this the real taste the rainbow and probably my favorite the truffle soup complaint as soon as you open this up you're lowering the aroma of the troubles just it's a little too much that's why i love troubles right now i think i'm ready to go eat hot so all the hop-out places in new york they're doing the outdoor seating and harilao is the number one most famous hapa chang in the world and look what they're doing here it's like a tent city so you're just eating outside it's a hot day too you gotta really love hot pots you want to get in on a hot summer's day and i do i love it that much all right let's see what they have so they're known for their like four different sections of soup base but they don't have that today because we're sitting outside everything's modified for kovac we've got the classic spicy mala mala hopper looks good pepper tornado i think we need pepper turn made a tornado mushroom i got a lot okay pepper tornado in the mala i think were the classics this one's more expensive so i think it's better i don't know i haven't i haven't eaten here since the try guy episode of 2018. they usually have the four flavors but they don't they don't have that anymore so they do have the double confirmed soup base whoa oh you can add numminess all right time for order some food whoa some delicacies spicy river snail pork feeds braised pork intestine spicy bullfrog wow signature tofu let's get some signature tofu signature dancing noodles ribeye kobe beef belly premium fatty beef new zealand lamb shoulder fork shelter cuddle fish paste interesting brains god knows i need some but not today i still remember the last time i water brings dropped it on the floor a mind is a terrible thing to waste and i did it pretty nice there's a tent there's some mood lighting you got air flow even though it's like a hot summer day it feels pretty cool business is really trying to do what they can during this crazy pandemic so i prefer eating outdoors and i do indoors some of you guys you don't like the smell of hot pot on your body i don't know why but some of you do not here you won't i think after this ends and it will end i think we should keep some aspects of outside dining this is a magnificent you agree she's naughty that's sophie what's up self that's great the green pepper one i asked for extra numminess they delivered oh my god there is a lot of peppercorn in here that's pure hot oil wow that is spicy oh my gosh that looks like good quality meats what is the lamb [Music] wow look how red this is well i'm going to try to house it on fire later it's really spicy and really numb if you just love sizzling spices that's your thing but it is wow did you see that see what i swear two little hobbits came by and threw a ring in here one ring to rule them all i can't i can't eat this until i have something else in my stomach it's too oily all right the pepper one's way better i told you the green pepper that's way better this is like almost too much for me right maybe don't recommend this this is like seriously borderline not edible wow i mean it's pretty but this thing will definitely light you up there's a little too much peppercorn here i can handle the spice but the peppercorn is just wow this is really spicy it's very numbing it's very numbing one bite of this you can watch any tear-jerking movie you can sit through the lion king not drop a tear if you're about to break up with your significant other or do anything emotional take a couple bites of death you've been numb to anything but baby i thought we're gonna be together forever i don't feel anything perfect for winter though i think you could come here sub arctic temperature without the next time like new york city is a wind show of negative 20 or something order that this is one of the craziest spiciest nummiest soup bases i've ever had don't do this kids we need to put a warning sticker on this thing adults if you can't at least get past that three times spicy instant noodle don't what it is wow the tomato broth really good the spicy one it's all right it's not just about the spice i feel like i've had spicier but i've never had numbier than that we don't know what it is try butting into a sichuan peppercorn it was like that multiplied by about a million but definitely recommend this green pepper broth and also tomato brown all right now that my nose stopped running let's eat besides food so when you go upstairs there's a children's playroom wow i guess uh kids don't need no hapa the hotpot tent city this is oh so this is chargers for your phones let me show you the bathroom this is like an airline they actually give you razors and blue d chanel toothbrush combs what is this wet wipes toothpicks the next day things kind of spiraled out of control a little bit after the hot pot meal like i was saying that was the numbiest hop-hop rock i think i've ever tasted and i'm used to eating really spicy hot raw broth there used to be a place in um manhattan called hoy is one of the first all you can eat hop up places that popped up in new york city and i love that place i go there all the time but the thing is with that place is that as good as it is the broth if you order the spiciest it's so spicy that i know for the rest of the night and way into the next day it'll be like mount mordor in my stomach so even during filming this hot but i i feel it i feel this thing having that that effect on me maybe even more so than the other hop up place so i went home curled up in a fetal position and that's pretty much where i remain till now so yeah if you ever go to heidi law it's good i mean the broth is good get the tomato get the green pepper maybe stay away from that crazy spicy nummy broth i think finally my stomach is at a point where i actually feel hungry so it's about uh 10 a.m or so right now so i want to put some stuff in my stomach the other strategy of getting over like like a really spicy dish at least for me is i like to eat a lot more so it kind of pushes the chili out you'll suffer a little bit but once you push that super hot food baby out of there all happiness let's go [Music] all right this is where i wanted to go to i've never been here before this is a fairly new wonton noodle shop and the locals absolutely love us give it a try what's your name larry larry what's good here um they're kind of like uh dumplings uh-huh their base is poking shrimp right there right dumplings and pork and shrimp what about the noodles the noodles are very good too right so i should get one tom noodles and dumplings yeah i'm buying frozen to bring home and then check out them both okay okay well this guy this guy is satisfying his knees now and later and the owner is very good max is very good okay i'm excited now this guy got me all excited i got the two dumplings and then the um okay okay are you maxine i'm maxie this is your noodle shop this is my shop i'm excited to try it oh yeah can you uh bring me out some of your favorites after after a table clears out can you uh just give me a minute yeah no worries i have no idea what i want to eat what should i use definitely chowder three toppings but it's a little hot so you might want to try to lower me okay so what do i need to try the soup though i'm a big fan of soup you're gonna get the soup but it's super served on the side good okay so i get a little taste of both yeah nice nice yeah i like how you do things okay what else anything else so the most popular um are you a fish guy are you a beef guy oh i like it when my beef eats some fish and i get to eat a steak never skin uh but yeah i love both okay so um the most ordered three topping is the wonton dumpling fish ball or the wonton dumpling beef stew wait so there's a fish soup and there's a bee soup right it's really just one kind of broth but when you add the beef stew sauce it turns into this like a whole nother can you put the beef thing on the side so i can dump it in after i taste it yes great thank you so much no those are problem jumbo dumplings oh that's great wow these are some giant sized dumplings some wontons they're scarce how we like to do it you know already dip this in the soup in and out and then all right not in japan but in the spirit itadakimasu oh this is the biggest fishbowl i've ever seen look at scallions inside as well oh that's a squishy bouncy fish ball you want your fish balls to be like your tennis balls bouncy this is the dumpling that's a giant don't this is so pretty it looks like the dumpling is getting weird and the dress is just dragging behind her finally the wontons what i like about this place already i'll tell you what i already like it's just the ginormous size of everything crispy fish skin oh that's a darn good looking chip and the braised beef and it looks like these are flinks which are the best for beef noodle soup i love using this part of the cow to braise because this meat has good tendon and cartilage inside as well and last but not least bed of egg noodles let's try this fresh skin dip it into the wonton soup which is only natural fish just wants to go swimming hmm i love them more than chicken skin chips i love fish and chips that's good for you too nice protein wow that's good broth oh you taste the shrimp in here the little bit subtle crunch from the spring onions you know how much this weighs one ton hot oil i'm gonna go ahead and put that into the noodles a little rain and hot oil action this is my version of making it rain no dollar bills but uh i think better stuff's coming down my fishbox delicious sign of a good fish ball the bounciness you could bounce a quarter off his butt subtle fish flavor light little crunch from the spring onions oh this is great i will buy a pack of this to take home with me sushi tons of shrimp and shine doesn't even need to be dunked into the wonton soup but that's where it belongs and dumplings just as good also what's great about this is the skin is so light and brown seed so at no point are you ever feeling like it's too doughy that doesn't happen i love adding a little white pepper into my soup love that that hits the spot them or some elastic noodles you want your noodles to be bouncy you want to be able to bungee chop off a bridge with them dunking this one into the beef broth yeah baby there you go a little hot oil in there soak up some of that beef broth i'm in love with that this is some amazing wontons noodles and dumplings too i'm not even sure if i'm supposed to do this but i think i'm supposed to pour this into this yeah i think that's how it's supposed to be done surf and turf soup now after this i've got a secret dumpling meeting i'm working on a secret dumpling project can't tell anyone yet today is the first talk only thing i can tell you is that i'll be eating strictly dumpling for a while [Music] so this is what i was talking about i mean i know outdoor dani is the necessity right now during covet but and of course like all the restaurants where i'd rather have all the patrons inside and fill it up but i'm just talking about this atmosphere just walking around here you're walking past people cooking food cooking the korean barbecues barbecuing outside people just sitting around this is very much like like an asian night market atmosphere so i hope you know after this whole thing is over and i hope that comes as soon as possible we keep some of this if you imagine like going outside in the middle of october it's nice and chilly but you got a beautiful flaming korean barbecue or a hot busting in front of you i think eating here is fantastic eating outside is just fantastic eating environment point is hope they keep outdoor dining even after this whole thing is over sophie really loves this place what are we getting brown sugar bubba ice why are you are you into this whole craze of the brown sugar boba crate i'm not into the craze but this ice is really good you excited it should be bubble tea after hot pot now it's like shaved ice and ice cream with the bubbles i feel like asian desserts has been constantly upgrading yourself happy thanks so much for watching guys see you later
