- I eat and review Wah Fung No. 1 Fast Food in New York City’s Chinatown. The Chinese restaurant serves some of the best cheap food in the city. They’re most famous for their Char Siu (roast pork), but they also serve amazing roast pig, chicken and duck.

About Me:
I live in NYC and I’m about food, travel and work.
I like how you take us to Michelin-rated restaurants and mom & pop places as well. Thank you for that. And again, filming keeps getting better and better.
Thank you! Yeah, I like mixing it up. Plus, places like this are much kinder on my wallet.
First time on your channel. So glad that you enjoyed Chinese Cantonese BBQ. Although we don't eat this all the time, it's a nice treat our entire lives growing up with Chinese BBQ. Now you are making me salivate! I'm in Northern CA. Too far to try Wah Fung but definitely can appreciate your review. YUM! I see that you answer all your viewers, which is a very nice touch!
@@proudasiangirl576 Thank you for watching! Indeed! There's a lot of good Chinese Cantonese BBQ in NYC, but Wah Fung is probably my favorite.
Only been there once, on my latest trip to NYC, but it instantly became one of my favorite food spots (if not the favorite) in the city. I agree with every word you said in the beginning about the sauce. Fantastic!
It's an amazing place indeed!
love this budget friendly pick! it's fun to see you delight in just Good food! as always I enjoy your videos and descriptive elequence
Thank you! Yeah, I love variety. Eating at fancy restaurants is great, but it's refreshing to go to places like this. Plus, it's much kinder on my wallet! Haha!
While I am most jealous of "skinny" people, the shear joy & descripted review allows me to acknowledge that you are a "true foodie" & worthy of my respect & admiration. And yes, I am in the process of "binge" watching your past posts. All good for a rainy Sunday afternoon.
Thank you so much! I really love food!
That’s where I’ll be going on a trip NYC for cheap eats
It's a great restaurant! I hope you enjoy it!
Shout out to the iconic take out tins [be they round or otherwise]..
The best.
Chinese style roasted pork is amazing... At a local place here I have enjoyed the rice plate with tofu and roasted pork. Huge offering and very decent price. It's pure decadence. 😋👍❤️
*here as in, my area of the country 😊
Indeed! It's great takeout, good food for a good price!
Oh yeah, that now is my kind of takeaway food!😋
It's so good!
Just went here today thanks for the tip. Line up was to the street corner (40ish min) but 2 large for $15 tax in…totally worth it !
Nice! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Yeah, the lines are the longest on the weekends, but it's definitely worth it!
Yeah but the fact that it’s 2+ meals makes it worth it. Coming from Canada I can’t believe how expensive this city is, so it was nice to find good food paired with good value. Keep up the channel
@@Omen6 Thank you! I appreciate it! Yeah, it's so refreshing to go to a place like this that serves good food at a great price!
That looks very good! I’m definitely trying that place when I visit NYC. I see you enjoy food as much as I do 😁 #foodie
It's so amazing and it's a definite must try! I hope you enjoy it!
Yummy food and price is great !!
Indeed!
The roast pig at Wah Fung is dollar for dollar the best foodorgasm-to-money ratio item in all of NYC for me. Great video! Unfortunately it looks like Wah Fung is closed for construction as the last time I went there it was closed.
Thank you! Exactly! It's one of the best deals in NYC!
The are reopened now. They had a gas pipe that needed to be replaced
Good place 👍
Fyi Chinatown fine dining -- Hakka Cuisine (11 Division St), Potluck Club (133 Chrystie St), Uncle Lou (73 Mulberry)
Indeed! Thanks for the recommendations!
Just returned from my NYC arts trip (2 operas at the Met, 1 concert at Geffen Hall, 1 concert at Carnegie), I must say I was hugely disappointed by Wah Fung; mercifully I went on a Wednesday afternoon and the line was short. The meats (duck, roast pork, char siu) all tasted bad...You guys need to come to L.A. for the real stuff. I got a large box + soda for only $9.50 I guess you get what you pay for.
With a bad taste in my mouth I then went to Eataly, wow much MUCH nicer than the Eataly in L.A. Molto impressed. You should do a review.
I actually went back to Chinatown and had an excellent meal at Deluxe Green Bo, check out their famous soup dumplings!
That's a shame. You can't win them all. Thanks for the recs!
I’ve said it before, the new Frank Bruni.
@@ronh1940 Thank you! I appreciate it!
Awesome, looks good! The chicken is always tasty and the roast pork is a closely second, nothing better than that crispy skin!
Indeed! That crispy skin was heaven!
I’m amazed so cheap, last time I was in NYC, I almost bought a $10 scoop 1 of ice cream
I know what you mean! It's so expensive in NYC. That's why it's so nice places like this exist.
Man oh man that looked great…would definitely have to try that place…keep it up bud
Thank you! It's a must try indeed!
Gonna get me some Wah Fung this week
You can't go wrong with Wah Fung!
Cool shades
Thank you!
Love this videos😄
Thank you! I always appreciate it!
Few questions 1. Where did you get those glasses?
2. How’s the Chinese in Chicago? Does it even compare to NYC?
Those are Persol sunglasses and I got them off of Amazon and I love them! The Chinese food in Chicago is great, but NYC is much better, but that is partly for the fact that NYC has a much larger population, which equates to more restaurants and a greater variety. I actually like the Chinatown in Flushing, Queens far more than the Manhattan Chinatown.
When some one says.. pretty good or pretty damn good as well.. Means they really didnt like it and wouldnt buy it again...lol..
I cant wait to go there
It's a great place! I hope you enjoy it!
Am sorry but am vegan...... but I had to devour that juicy pork just to get to my cabbage...😂
Just kidding ....so delicious.❤❤❤❤
Haha!
I have to remind myself not to watch your videos while I'm hungry! Love this review! You should get some bubble tea while in Chinatown rather than the coffee :)
Haha! Thank you! I love bubble tea, but my love for coffee is so much stronger.
so true. I'm hungry, I'm munching bread right now whilst craving those delicious food
@@lottie5346 lol
@@lottie5346 Haha!
It’s yummy 😋 it’s best 😃
It's so good!
Cool show!
Thanks for watching!
Closed since May 2023 with no ETA of returning. Could be the death of a Chinatown icon. James, it seems you missed out on their barbeque chicken thigh and leg which was super yummy.
I know it's a real shame! I'm hopping it returns, it would be a real loss if it doesn't.
It’s open for business again, I was there yesterday.
They reopened. They had to replace the whole gas grill and other gas related stuff
Hey Andrew, I gotta ask about the Pepsi Rolex. Did u buy it from an AD or second hand?
I wish that was a Rolex, but that's actually a Seiko SKX009, which is still a great watch! I purchased it off of Amazon awhile ago.
@@Jamesnu oh my bad, didn’t look properly lol. Love the vids man, I’ve been making reservations at every restaurant u have been to since rezdora.
@@rollericarus No worries. Thank you! That makes me happy to hear! I really appreciate it!
When I saw you eat soy sauce chicken n Char Siu (roasted pork) which was an authentic Cantonese food that I used to eat back in Hong Kong but your BBQ pork looked kind of fat n greasy😂 $11.50 for all that meat n rice dishes which is a bargain cuz you won't find such good price not even in Los Angeles..😅
Indeed, it's probably one of the best food bargains in NYC.
IM SOOO JELLY!!
Haha! It's great food indeed!
Eating everything off of a restaurant's menu is quite a fun flex.
Yes, indeed! The great thing is that you can pretty much get everything off the menu for a bit over $20.
You have to try and take your Wah Fung and eat it inside a vegan shop
Haha! I'd bet that would make me very popular.
I wanna go. Now. 🐖
They definitely sell great food!
It's really good?
Haha! Yeah, I was very subtle with regards to my feelings about it, but it truly is incredibly satisfying!
Good(minus the swine). I'm from No Pork City 🗽💙
Indeed! You don't have to eat pork to get great food from Wah Fung.
all that food and still maintain yourself - secret ?
Haha! Well, I'm always active, and I'm a big runner.
Is it still cheap as hell tho?
I know it just reopened after a pretty long closure and I think the prices are still pretty affordable.
@@Jamesnu fr they charge $20 for a meal like that where I live and I don't even eat there. There are a lot of places like these around my city so Seeing this affordable food spot makes me see hope that we can eat like this again, good food at low cost, that's somethin special😊
@@TAYKAY2.7.5 Absolutely!
Hello! Slaughtering animals constitutes cruelty. Do you fancy the notion of cooks serving customers YOUR flesh?
They probably serve cat and dog 😮
when china become superpower, everyone will eat dog and cat.. it is called global influence
yes, they definitely serve cat and dog when the price of a single cat or dog can be thousands 🙄 use your brains.
wah fung ? damn rite it is good
Absolutely!
