This restaurant looks awesome, and that owner looks like one outstanding businessman. This place should expand out across the country. I love the idea of pan-Asian restaurants, serving all the different cuisines; why not have one stop for Chinese, Japanese, Thai? Even add Korean, Vietnamese, Filipino, Indonesian, Malaysian, Singapore! The best part is that all the food culturally cross-contaminates, as in New Orleans, and new dishes get born. The future of America is people like this owner.
I've seen many that try this model, yet it almost never works due to inconsistencies and sub-par cuisine. Although, it seems this restaraunt cooks quality dishes that are true to their respective roots. However, I've never eaten here :(
I LOOOOOOOVE this place. He didn't really get into it, but their Hibachi steakhouse is phenomenal. I mean, it's better than Benihana's. This place is for real folks. Second to none.
The time honored advice for judging the quality of Chinese restaurants is the more Chinese customers (bonus points if they can't speak English), the better the restaurant.
I live pretty close to this place and there was a chef that used to work there that quit because he hated the owner. He opened his own Chinese restaurant using his own recipes and it takes so much better than chi-tung. His place has a way better menu too.
This place does have the absolute best Chinese food I've ever had. It is the only place in Chicago that I did Chinese food. As a matter of fact I will be having some tonight LOL😁😁😁
There's gotta be something shady going on. Seems like an impossible business model. He's paying a HUNDRED employees every day? They have to put out an order every 8 seconds to make money?
vegetables and noodles/rice + cheap cuts of meat are all low cost, they're then sold at a higher price. He probably doesn't pay the cooks much more than minimum wage of course. The staff numbers are there because of the volume of sales, if the sales were less the staff would be smaller.
Probably doesnt care about delivery because hes signed up with doordash... his employees arent making deliveries...i work for doordash and have delivered food. Food was not done in 8 seconds and i had a 45 min commute to deliver food. I dont accept orders from there anymore.
This manager is a psychopath,you can see he's trying to drive the competition out, a meal served in 8 seconds and we deliver everywhere.OBVIOUS.Hes probably got chefs working for him that have come from collapsed restaraunts nearby.
I'm definitely going there and the good thing is I'm not to far from the restaurant...The food looks amazing. I always doubt this place because I wasn't sure if the food was good but now looking at this video there is no doubt for sure....
missymya3972, that's the attitude of Chinese-Americans or Chinese immigrants who feel more affinity for China than for their own, or newly adopted, country. Obviously if you're fresh off the boat and you're used to old world Chinese food, then you're not going to like Chinese-American. On the other hand, if you've been in America for generations, then you're going to like Chinese-American just as much as any other American would. It's not about the food, it's about your national identity and where your loyalty lies.
I'm Chinese and I just think that's snobbish. If it is good, it is good. I stick with some of the authentic restaurants that serve mostly to Chinese because I am used to that food and can stomach it. But just because it is authentic, it doesn't mean it is automatically good for everyone.
Yeah they deliver anywhere but what they don’t tell you how much they charge for that and of course you get your food in two minutes that’s because everything in the back is microwaved
Whoa! Chi Tung? I’m Asian and while it doesn’t make me an expert in all things Asian, this place lacks authenticity. HOWEVER, it is clean, they are busy so you know the food is fresh, and for an American palate it is actually fine but to call it Chicago’s best is a stretch! No, no, no. One thing to note though, there aren’t too many Asians in Evergreen Park, Oaklawn, and the surrounding Chicago area. So to expect Asian diners is very unlikely.
hahahaha, that is just a blow normal standard street food in Bejing China now in chicago wow! Once Im in chinatown I am like oh where are we? are we still living in 100 years ago?? Want to taste real chinese food? you better go there.
I think the guy forgot to mention that his staff is hard working...
😂😂😂😂
*They Wok ing hard !!!*
Everyone wok rewwy hard !
😂😂😂
🤣
He has basically replicated a chinese iphone factory model

This dude probably underpays his employees
One of the best I've seen so far!
happy employees means actually being paid minimum wage and proper weekend and overtime rates
I don’t mind waiting to make sure my food is fresh. I don’t need it in 8 seconds.
I do, I got a restaurant cuz I’m hungry
Someone must complain about something.

Mind telling me the place?
+benisisballin where is this place my gf has a b day next week
+Alka Seltzer jiangs on 111th street in Beverly Chicago
This place does have the absolute best Chinese food I've ever had. It is the only place in Chicago that I did Chinese food. As a matter of fact I will be having some tonight LOL😁😁😁
"keep the workers happy " ? yeah right ...
So inspiring.. Thank you Chicago Best
The original owners sold it and it's not the same anymore.
What’s different haven’t been in long time
I go to WU’S now
I am in love love love with this place I miss living close by. It's alway fresh and good.
There's gotta be something shady going on. Seems like an impossible business model. He's paying a HUNDRED employees every day? They have to put out an order every 8 seconds to make money?
What blows my mind is the delivery. So I could order from him even though I'm 25 minutes away without rush hour? That seems nuts.
You don't understand !!! *They Wok ing hard !!!*

Hahaha your silly man

That was a well timed intro
I love that place
As soon as he started singing happy birthday, he’d have gotten a fist in his mouth.

"Order is done in 8 Seconds"
I've had farts longer than that.
lol
THATS THE BEST CHINESE FOOD. IVE EVER SEEN.
Who remembers Donnie Brasco please take off shoes lol great food 👍

Look at how saucy those Chinese American dishes are. No wonder there are no Chinese customers shown in this TV episode.
for a second i thought i was watching You Gotta Eat Here. Great episode! Food looks amazing
We deliver to Indiana! Loved that!
In reality, this is the entire family from China working here supporting and growing business here in the us and back home in China.
This place is so good
This guy tries so hard. Just be yourself dude
@PerrySport unfortunately that is him being himself
Been going here for over 10 years. The place has went downhill the last few years!!
employees must no longer be happy...
@@rightyourwrong hahahaah no happppppy
They do indeed have a boundary as to how far they deliver! They don't come past Damen in Chicago.
missctolbertvoh Not so “Had Woking” after all.

313designs well that'd be illegal so

Looks like quality Chinese-American food.
The restaurant looks good the kitchen is kinda small. I hope employees.get paid well
This manager is a psychopath,you can see he's trying to drive the competition out, a meal served in 8 seconds and we deliver everywhere.OBVIOUS.Hes probably got chefs working for him that have come from collapsed restaraunts nearby.

i really like your channel, but this restaurant are not really chinese. it's just a regular asian food like anybody else, except it's bigger.
One of thing About Chinese restaurants, it's only Chinese people in there

Chinese human trafficking 101. Put em 2 work for 5 bucks a day
3:56 Has anyone noticed that girl waving in the background or is it only me 😅😅😅
The owner looks like Jet li
one of my future spots while in the chi! holla
you know its bad when you see zero Asian customers in there.
BabySQUIRREL open ur eyes..idiot
cause its mostly american chinese food thats why lol
as a Chinese, I can say this is better than some other restaurant out there.
Its because they are all working in the back
Not real Chinese food.
Why am I watching this video because they are hard working....
Its magic
This place is NOT the same anymore with new owners!! And the food has changed also!
The owner look like Jet Li
Airport system for takeaway? thats some serious business, hold my beer.

The kid at 0:49
I'm definitely going there and the good thing is I'm not to far from the restaurant...The food looks amazing. I always doubt this place because I wasn't sure if the food was good but now looking at this video there is no doubt for sure....
Monica Pulido how was it?
@@ChiefPO10490 She never went
Conversa na cozinha sem máscara, sem luvas. Chega a arrepiar
Old video
Didn't they get fined for reusing food off already eaten plates?
I'm just asking
did they?
Hardworki..
I thought he was gonna pull his eyes
Never given the address and you should always give an idea of the price for a basic order!
i would love to work for this guy.
I was told that if there are little to no Chinese customers in a Chinese restaurant then it is not authentic and keep going...
missmya3972 I don't think they cater as being authentic. It's mostly Americanized Chinese food
missmya3972
I've been here it's actually really good! !

What should they do? Go down to Chinatown & hire plants?
Does your theory hold for Pizza joints.
Go check their parking lot. It's ALWAYS FULL...
great show - get rid of that host
Employee happy employee work hard
Peepo hadaaa wokeeeen . Good happy emproyeeee daaaay hadaaaa wokeeeen 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
Didn’t they have bugs in the food? Like didn’t an employee sabotage the food?🤮
chinese food“s making is complex，big order makes every employees tired 。it”s same in most every chinese restaurant.
just because your Chinese doesn't necessarily mean it's Chinese. I'm Hispanic and pretty much cook American.
Yeah they deliver anywhere but what they don’t tell you how much they charge for that and of course you get your food in two minutes that’s because everything in the back is microwaved
Peopeeee hardaaaaaa workiiiiiiiiii
LEAN thinking 100%
I love chines food ❤️
Chi tung translates to people hardworking?
he said "happy employes"????? kokain???
lol
am i suppose to laugh? h a h a h a.
Mi no entender
The host looks like Bobby Flay's little brother
Without strict health laws they put a dead mouse in the food
The owner's got operations all computerized.
3 1/2 stars on Yelp.
the host is very annoying he tries to be funny but hes not. he should just be normal
jay hern you could do better?
i don’t think he can
Elliott B is light years better
the host is handsome I like him
MARRY HIM
this guy is prolly out of bizness now , people not working , people not happy
Guy imports slaves from his village to work at a restaurant….Asian classic
Yeah, this won't be allowed anymore:(
The host belongs in prison
max security cringe prison
