10 Things that are WRONG with Din Tai Fung
Vložit

- Everything that is wrong about Din Tai Fung, as compared to a typical American Chinese restaurant. Din Tai Fung, originally from Taiwan, is my favorite "Chinese" restaurant... but the first time few times I visited I didn't quite understand the concept. This is all meant in good fun by the way.

This video seems to imply that other restaurants of the same kind are greasy, dirty, irresponsible, and careless. It’s a really bad way to give praise by criticizing its peers.
Nah, nothing is wrong with this.
are you down to DTF?( Din Tai fang)😂😂
Hah
Bryan Qwerty yes i am I’m dead serious
I lived in Taiwan for a few years and this was our go to place for celebratory dinners and whenever we had any visitors come. We were ALWAYS looking for a reason to eat here. This is by far the best restaurant!
Really want to check it out in Taiwan 🇹🇼
Very clever vid concept. I'm now trying to find one of those restaurants in my area. Thanks Mr. Yellow.
Thanks Grady!
my favorite restaurant chain! do they give a slip of paper where you check what you order? like in other countries
Hi Lev.. yup.. they sure do. In Taipei they give you that slip to order BEFORE you get seated. And generally take your order right away. In the US they give you the slip once you are "almost" ready to be seated.. and give people more time to flip through the pretty picture menu
I’ve been to a couple Din Tai Fung. They are fine but are expensive considering what they serve. XiaoLongBao in Shanghai are like $1.50 for 10. Din Tai Fung charges like $12-$15.
What you ate at Ding Tai Fung restaurant is more like “Taiwanese” food than “Chinese” food. Food in Taiwan is no longer very Chinese.😊
The comment about the floor was hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
I worked at the one at valley Fair for about 7 months being in the back of the house is a whole different story well just working there in general all that product comes Frozen I would say about 70% of the food you eat there's Frozen the only thing they make fresh there is the dumplings
Southcoast Plaza mall?
Wow!!!amazing video..you make me inspire to pursue my channel..I always watch your videos.your so amazing..
My wife and I are headed to Taiwan next month to visit her family. We always make a point to go there at least a hand full of times. We've had DTF in a few different countries, but Taiwan seems to be the best place. In other countries I think they're franchised out, so it all depends on how they're run when it comes to quality/consistency. Also, my wife wanted me to point out that this is Taiwanese cuisine....not Chinese. Different :)
No. 3 sounds slightly prejudiced. I live in the UK and don't expect bad service/rude waiters in Chinese restaurants.
Maybe it's an American thing?
If you look on any of the review sites like yelp on Chinese restaurants in the US... the #1 complaint is the bad service
Gary Ambrose I think it’s an American thing because they are used to good service.
Took me a second...I've only had 1 cup of coffee so far today haha. Loved the video Chris!
Thanks Cody! :)
Nice Sattire....My most fav asian restaurant waiting for it to open in TX.....been to CA and WA locations
Thanks Batman! :)
Excellent video!
Thanks Danny!
4:40 even though no fortune cookie, I get to take home that pen after signing my bill 🤫
Ok Chris, you are so comedy 🤣. Oh my goodness, I don’t know if I want to go to a restaurant that has so many Pros 😆. Din Tai Fung, here I come 😋, yum yum yum.
Hah. Thanks Roxa!
I discovered it when I visited Taiwan before opened wide in the US. Actually, it was opened for at least 10 years at Arcadia CA. Chinese food consists of many cuisines. Dumplings is a special category that is popular in Taiwan. That’s why presentation is unique. Just my opinion.
Great video , thanks for sharing
😂😂😂 great video man
Thanks LosPettro!
Because this is Taiwanese restaurant, not China
Another great video thank you Chris and Topher
Thanks Terry!
This video was at my south coast plaza where this location use to be a McDonald’s. SCP is the best mall in Orange County. -Tecnocraft Lamborghini
Impressive!
All that food.... yum 😁
LOL! I miss the greasy floor and table top in the traditional markets...
Well, Chinese people do eat Kung Pao Chicken. It is a popular Sichuan dish called 宫保鸡丁。Yeah, that's true, waiters here are rude. Service doesn't come to you if you don't yell at them to come. That being said, it also isn't considered rude to yell at them to come help you. Oil is huge here, Chinese use so much oil when cooking. So much so that many times when I return to America i realize we use even less than Chinese people. Which is quite hard to believe. The oil isle here in grocery stores is insane. You many times have an entire isle dedicated to big jugs of oil alone. Just imagine a whole isle a Wal-Mart with Oil. Yeah, that yelling to get seated thing is very real in China/Taiwan. Being loud in general is part of the culture LOL.
Thats alot of oil!
I love Din Tai Fung! The carb XLB is so yummy! There’s one in La Jolla now.
Indeed! And the one in UTC is great as well!
I love really tasty dumplings at Chinese restaurants! I definitely will have to try Din Tai Fung if I get a chance to. I like the idea of having very authentic Chinese or Taiwanese food!
It's tasty for sure!
Great video! I got hungry! 😊
The restaurant is very famous and popular in Taiwan, they are clean and efficient..But honestly the food quality is not as good as before and sadly the price is getting higher and higher.. 🙄
the south coast plaza is pretty nice 👍
I have relatives in San Diego and we go to the one at Westfield UTC
I like that one.. its a big location
I’ll give it a try.
We are going to have to try this place in San Diego. Thanks for the video
I hope you enjoy it J
Funny! I'm going to have to try this place.
Din Tai Fung restaurants are pretty much like night and day...
The ones in Bangkok are insanely bad and slow, the ones in Japan are superb, the ones in Hong Kong and Taiwan are great, the ones in Singapore are meh.
I haven't been to the ones in Bangkok or Singapore .. that's unfortunate
@@YellowProductions IMO you aren't missing out on anything. The ones you've already tried are surely among the better ones :)
Love Din Tai. Only complaint is that it’s a little pricey
Cheaper prices would be better for sure :)
I thought this was thai not chinese
Definitely not Thai. Taiwanese yes. Thai no 😀
I like DTF. I guess it depends on your preference of food
😊👍 Cool video!
I am from Taiwan
You make me really want to eat at Din Tai Fung. Any locations in Canada ? Thanks Chris
Hi Colleen.. unfortunately no locations yet in Canada
@@YellowProductions Yet another reason to visit California :)
2:06 That’s nice, how is that a problem?
Thanks Chris !
We have a DTF here in Melbourne. I’ll have to check it out. Can I mention your name for a discount 🤣🤣🤣
Hah! You can sure give it a try :).
Hi Chris. Nice place to really enjoy Chinese food.
It sure is James!
Clicked on the vid because I was angry that my favorite (non American style)Chinese food is allegedly being insulted. Stayed for the satire.
Hah I kinda forgot Americans are so used to the general tsos. Get some Xiao long Bao in your stomach and you'll never go back!!!
Hah! Definitely! Once you go XLB you can't go back to General TSO :)
How have you been feeling lately?😁
Your charm is irresistible!!😇💐🌸
You look energetic. 💪
You have a great smile.🤗
I love you!! 😘
I’m chinese and my favorite food is Xiao Long Bao (XLB), however I’ve eaten at DTF and had XLB in Arcadia (before they moved to Costa Mesa) only once b/c it’s was so awful. In fact everything I had that day was awful and way way overpriced. I have never eaten at the Costa Mesa location b/c I refuse to wait 2 hrs and pay more than twice as much. I have been to DTF in shanghai it was 3x the price as other competitors near by on Nanjing Rd. Although it was one of the best XLB when taking the perfect appearance of each XLB into account, but still doesn’t justify the price. Chris, I have LOVED every single of one your videos, but I can’t even bear to finish watching this one b/c it give a lot of misinformation. DTF doesn’t specialize in northern Chinese food, it specializes in southern. XLB is a Shanghai specialty and also served in other cities close by such as Wuxi, Suzho, Hangzhou region. Basically if you love to wait a long time to eat and pay double for your food, go to DTF. If you are near Brea, CA go to Super Juicy Dumpling, reasonable price and reasonable wait on weekdays.
DTF is Huaiyang cuisine. It is not from the south. But Xiao Long Bao is served in the south by every Dim sum restaurant.
Hi Helen.. sorry to hear you didn't like DTF.. we are all entitled to our own food opinions :)
So true lol. The new standard 👍
D T can I kiss you
D T I’m serious
Just got takeout from that exact spot
Mmmm
I wish such Taiwanese food here in Italy and Germany too. Love to all Americans from Leonardo Vinci here in Italy actually 🇮🇹😄👋
Thanks Leo! Love to you in Italia!
@@YellowProductions Grazie, Chris 😊👋
