Thank you to all the immigrants in London for all of your hard work and contribution to the food scene. If it weren't for you all, everyone would still be eating jellied eels.
@@muhibog1509 You're an idiot. All of the street food mentioned in the video are from countries outside the EU, which has nothing to do with Brexit.
Leftie tosser. I want my county back
@@muhibog1509 Muhib sounds like a proper british name
@@t8506 don't watch that. The queen's my mom 😉
@@muhibog1509 you should be more respectful
being a Londoner my entire life I can tell you one thing, we have amazing food, none of which is ours. Because London is so multicultural, you will get the culture of London but your mouth will travel the world
Visited London last December. Loved it! Came back with few extra pounds😁 Too bad didn't know about these places, especially the jianbing one, it's probably my favorite Chinese food. I hope all these places will survive the pandemic and will bring more joy to londoners and guests.
@@annak9216 they are closed permanently now due to covid
@NightLife Explores for the life of me I can't think of one English street food option
@NightLife Explores The only English street food people know of is Fish and Chips.
Just like that stuff in your museum nothing is yours coz your people stole it all
didn't know you could just lob tapioca flour on a pan and it becomes a flatbread O_O
Me either, super surprised how it came together but the end product looks incredible!
Rriiggghhhtt!!! Mind blown
I thinking the same thing
That's awesome, isn't it?
A little fyi, tapioca is (in some places) also the name of the flatbread made with this flour - which is also called Beiju in Pernambuco. That's why Gustavo named his place Beijummy.
ikr i am in shock
I love FUSION CUISINE! Those 5 stories are about being proud of each of those cooks' cultures. They've elevated food from their respective Motherlands to something even more sophisticated. Amazing!
oooh crap. this is 5 out of 5 for me. I WANT THEM ALL. wonder if the beijummy has the texture of a pao de queijo?
Not at all, Beiju is very crisp outside and light, pão de queijo is soft and dense at the same time.
No
It's interesting to hear their accents which have varying levels of Britishness to it depending on the person.
Can you imagine the world, especially the big cities, without immigration (as some of those old sods want)? How boring food would be? How wonderful that in the same city you can walk and find some oddly fantastic colombian fusion dish, a brazilian/amazonian flatbread, a chinese crepe, an indian burger, whacky greek-mexican fries and who knows what else?!
Now I'm sad I don't live in one of those big cities and our food is boring.😂...and I'm hungry😅
It's also good to make the distinction between the people that don't want immigration and the people who don't want illegal immigration and unfair advantages over British born citizens.
This was not a conversation I anticipated coming to this video lol.
😂
@Fardin Ahsan Dude, my comment wasn't that deep. I was merely talking about the variety of foods and extreme anti-immigration opponents (i.e. to have none at all). Immigration is a more nuanced topic obviously and it's impossible to generalize as each country has different policies and history with it.
As for the backlash you mention, that wasn't as much about teaching kids about not discriminating against gays (things that have long been mentioned in UK education for quite some time), but about the new 'No Outsiders' materials being introduced which isn't about 'don't discriminate gays' but is downright indoctrination on the anti-scientific gender ideology nonsense pushing the trans ID thing to extremes (including literally false info on the protected categories in the Equalities Act) and a lot of other very disturbing ideas about 'breaking the notions of kids as nonsexual beings and seeing them instead as sexual being to engage with teachers' (I wish I were kidding, this is the shit the guy who wrote that material is putting in there..and he was a teacher! creepster vibes to the max). I didn't understand what the fuss was about when they reported it in the news as I support gay rights 100% and am gay myself, then I took the time to revise the material and then read a very thorough analysis of it that was published a couple of weeks ago and it's insane. I would've protested too and would be picketing parliament until they removed that crap from all schools, if I could. It's not a muslim thing, that they are being conservative or whatever, it's the disturbing nature of the material itself. I can't believe no one reviewed that garbage before they pushed it into schools.
randomm User1237589 1961 wasn’t full of poverty and people just didn’t eat a loaf of bread a day?
randomm User1237589 plus immigration has its cons.It can lead to a minority in the natives.Illegal drug dealers and Terrorist can sneak militants in.It can lead to clashing religions.It can lead to clashing political views.In a very rare situations it can let extremists in a country to sabatoge or kill natives.Whilst I do not believe in a complete cut off of immigration to much immigration can lead to conflict.
Jian bing is f'ing amazing. When I lived in China, I ate it as often as I could.
first time i've heard of it-looks like a burrito
Jian Bing was my daily breakfast habit while living in Shanghai. It's amazing.
Such a lovely mixture of foods, cultures and accents! Loved the video, the editing and the passion that each of the cooks showed when presenting their creations!

Amazing the fabulous street food one can get in Paris and London now as well as everywhere else in the world! People couldn't get this variety 50 years ago or so even where I live now, but now we can, thankfully! Food is the great unifier along with music! And of course, "variety IS the spice of life", literally and figuratively! Thanks for sharing...drooling here in beautiful old New England.
Who is fasting while watching this mouthwatering video 🙃
Me 😊😁🙏
me and i completely regret it
Loool me
I don’t think I’ve ever watched as many food videos in my life compared to the amount I’ve watched in just the first week of Ramadan 😓
Not fasting, but feel respect for those who do
Went to Pleasant Lady yesterday - was amazing. Thanks for the recommendation!
I’m in NYC and I’ve been wanting a bite. Perfect timing, GBS!
Edit: oh wat nvm I’m not in london
You've been gnomed.
This comment is the definition of :(
haha- excellent comment
Go vegan click my eye.
Wut
Holy moly guacamole that mulata has my mouth watering. Might have to hit up Paddington in a bit
Gorilla Grenade guacamole is from Mexico 🇲🇽 by the way!!!
Was in London a few months ago and ate at Baba G's at Mercato. I didn't know they were that popular because there was no line at the time. I gotta say their Crazy Lamb Jalfrezi Burger is the best burger I've ever had in my life! I'd like to say it was memorable, but it's was the kind of food that's so good that you'd only come back to your senses after finishing it.
London is very lucky !
They have such great choices to pick from..
nyc has more
@@xfmk9296 it's not a competition chill
Your Average Passer-By yes it is
@@xfmk9296 no its not and know one cares
You have no clue
the cheese iron is a food truck in london and it's AMAZING
Absolutely stunning. It makes me feel buy a flight ticket to London just to eat to these 5 places...
It all looks so amazingly delicious!!
Having been to Baba Gs in Camden Market, I can vouch that it is indeed delicious. The burgers have a really nice and fairly strong mix of flavours (I'd recommend the Lamb Alfrezi burger) plus they come with fries (again with a indian inspired flavour) which it makes for a great meal. Just keep in mind Camden Market closes at 6 so either go for lunch or a very early dinner. Make sure to go hungry!
Those arepas wrapped around cheese are AMAZING!!! To see more videos of street food around London check out our channel. Happy Drooling!!
Awesome, will check all these places out at some point. Great stuff.
What an exciting video! Thank you
The videography in all your food videos is simply amazing 🔥
I love how I live a bus ride away or even just a 5 minute drive and I’ve never been of any of theses places like wooooow!
Hello 👋👋👋
a massive congratuletions to all the hard workers that work most of their day in these kind of resteurants and bring the best food
My god the culture of culinary technic over there by far suppass the standards where i am .. the inspiration to do things with flar is really up there and i love it ...it puts the spark back into my bladed down routine of working for so many ppl over the years in hospitality. You end up giving in to there way because they keep to ordinary ,make more spend less on ingredients.
I can't remember where it is, but there's a food stand in London which serves roast dinner (choice of fillings) wrapped in a giant Yorkshire pudding - take away Sunday roast complete with gravy, and absolutely delicious

I would really wish to visit such food stand lol 🤣
They all looked amazing! 😍 Will have to find these places when we're let out of our homes
Yes dear, it's really a nice place to be
Every single dish looked amazing. Man I need to go to London.
I am really impressed with the variety of food here ! And being an Indian I never thought you could add bhaji in burgers that idea is good
If this is in London why does the title say its New York?
Edit: they fixed the title. It used to say New York
Yeah that's my question 😂
Food insider?
Killa Watt tbf London is the only city in the world that compares to NY
Uzzie B Tokyo, Hong Kong, LA, Chicago??
Carl Clark maybe Hong Kong and Tokyo because I haven’t been there. I have been to Chicago and Los Angeles and they do not compare to New York City. Chicago is minuscule compared to New York and Los Angeles is cool but it’s not a city like NY or London.
I shouldn't have watched this after midnight. I'm so hungry right now.
Bhargav Rao ME RIGHT NOW
Make sure you don't eat after midnight, you may become a Gremlin
Unique stuff! Go London, good job GBStory, and Kisses to the Chefs
Any big cities has a similar pearls on the street, all you need is to find it and enjoy it. Thanks for sharing, I am on the way to try some 👍
This video highlights one thing I noticed about European countries while travelling- food from other countries and cultures seem to dominate the local food scene, more so than "local" dishes. I was recommended kebab, or Thai or Vietnamese food when I asked what was good around the area. Rarely did anyone recommend something that is really local. I'm from Singapore, and if anyone asks "what is your best food/restaurant here?", it will definitely be a Singaporean dish. This is pretty much the case for every Asian country.
European food culture is bland that's why
But “Singaporean food” is already a mix of different cultures; you have Indian, Malaysian, Chinese, etc. I grew up in SE Asia, constantly visited Sg and the cuisine is so broad that what’s “good” can honestly be anything. Living in the UK now, I personally find english food bland as hell but fish n chips are dope af.
Bc northern european food is really bland. Southern Europe has really great cuisine (italian, spanish, greek...) but from the north, what's really famous??? England only signature dish that comes to my mind is fish and chips. And even this plate is bland for some people hahaha
@@t8506 Depends. Some European food like northern european or Eastern European is really bland due to environment. Southern European and Central is very good.
@@leronbenari226 Southern and central is bland as well. No spices at all except salt and pepper.
2:40 Marco's introduction sounded a lot like Corg from Thor Ragnarok 🤣
Absolutely brilliant video with the already notorious flub; nonetheless, always happy for food videos and England videos, so this is the perfect combination! Love what you do!!
Everything is superb! Can't decide which one is better than the other.
PFCs are London’s greatest gift, if you know then you know
are those the fake KFCs??lol
They all look amazing but the last ones chicken really caught my eye
Nice vid guys. Moved out of London 18 months ago to spend some time living in mainland Europe. I love it, but videos like this makes me miss home.
You can taste the whole world in one country😍🥰
Bhajiya or pakora between buns
Its common in mumbai.

I'm watching this while eating a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast :')
Really love the transitions the editors did for this video. Great stuff.
Amazing and creative food receipes. I wish to tour London street food market someday from New York.
I think they are trying to make us jealous of food we can’t eat
-4 Subscribers with a hammer addiction yep
I can eat it...
Maybe you should be more respectful

I'm going to london tomorrow
Aye. Nuthin' like classic Upper Manhattan cockney accent. Big Apple madting, mate!
Banta mate😂
Hahhaha
in tears...looks so good................
Thank you to youtube in London for all of your good videos and contribution to the food scene. If it weren't for youtube everyone would still be eating jellied eels.
The second one - Jian Bing... I just have an incredible urge to bite it right now! But... I'm not close to London...
I had the Mulata one before. The guy was quite rude. The food was ok but there is better colombian options in london (or arepa in general..only need to go elephant and castle lol).
I've had some really good food in the food markets in london. Leather Lane, Borough Market, Broadway Market....amongst others.
could you share the other better options for Colombian in London ? i would really love to try
Nice to watch this video, thank you for sharing, promise to get back on new upload. So mouthwatering too.
My gosh. I'm so hungry right now after seeing these incredible dishes.
BaBa G's set the bar so high up that I wasn't even interested in the rest.
;-; i'm sad that youtube threw this into my recommendations the week after i came back from a vacation in london....
😂😂
Le oof
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nice 👍 to meet you here Julienne
You are Super ! ! ! ❤️ Good Luck !!! Thanks for this video
Awesome video love your videos 😍😋

Jose Mourinho ??!!
The guy who owns Baba G is also on the new season of million pound menu on Netflix 😊🙌🏼
tried it-wasn't that impressed tbh-loved jian bing though
Thanks! Very useful and helpful information ℹ️
i have been living in London for 18 years and not once have I come across these food stalls. After corna I plan to visit these places, can't wait !!
can't tell you how nice it is to see someone recommend food in London that isn't just fish and chips. i live here and i'm sick of seeing all the vlogs that focus on just British food when our best food comes from all over the world.
Hello 👋 Laura
Why does it make you sick? Let me guess, you aren’t English?🤡
I don’t understand how England has been around for over 1,000 years with a very rich history...
But they couldn’t make any good British food !
Bullshit, english food IS good. What's wrong with fish and chips, and meat pies, rich stews, bangers and mash, beef wellington, fruit cobbler, shepherds pie, cottage pie, the full english breakfast, hot pot, pasties, sunday roast, apple pie, tarts, bread and butter pudding, pound cake, etc... then again your username is Penis, so really what do you know?
@@stephaniepalladino4782 these things all sound lovely too. May I add cornish pasties and sausage rolls and scotch eggs. Lots of good comfort food.
But I adore these immigrant made options too.
Stephanie Palladino compared to italian, turkish and indian etc. food british cuisine is pretty tame and bland
@@Physicist- It's a matter of ingredients. In the UK we didn't have all those spices and ingredients native to our lands, we had to make do with plain old carrots, peas, meat etc. I think the best we had to season food, etc. was salt and nothing else really until the British Empire brought spices back to the UK
@Ankur Bhowmik Well my statement isn't incorrect though is it? The means at which we obtained those goods were obviously terrible but my point still stands.
We had a lovely jianbing place here, but sadly, it closed. I miss it so much.
Omg, my mouth is watering!
Fix title it should say London, not New York.
We need this in Australia. Such boring foid here 😭
There is so many awsome foods and international cuisine in aus. What are you talking about
Omg... that Brazilian thing looks AMAZING! I wish I could have it NOW
Just wow! Really an amazing Street Food in London
I bet it taste like food from New York

Hello 👋👋 Lisa
This is a great list!
That tapioca thing is a travesty when compared to the original.
My favourite will be the
Indian burger.
The combination of spices and herbs and the lamb, I can only imagine what the taste will be like.
Yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum yum.
I think after looking at the Food the Bugure and tapiyoka looks nourishing and filling.Hopre somday I will get to visit and eat to my heart's content.
I've never seen you cut it with a potato machine. I'd love it.💙😄👍
Why is a NYC video filled with London cuisine? Is this the twilight zone or something?
Let me show you some "British" cuisine.
So, first we have this... American, uh.. burger... with a little bit of uh... Indian...in it?
Britain colonized most of the planet lmao. Of course they’re former colonies U.S.A and India is in there cuisine.
@@trolololololololololololol6124 makes sense
@@trolololololololololololol6124 the burger wasnt even invented in america, nor did it even exist when america was a british colony.
@@Big-Chungus21 every street in England has a fried chicken store named after a state like Tennessee, Kentucky, ecs
@@trolololololololololololol6124 since when? Have you been to england? Ive literally never seen a restuarant like that other than... kfc, which is literally the companies name. Also american cuisine isnt a part of our cuisine. British cuisine is a part of american cuisine. Apple pie for instance, was mostly invented in england. American cuisine is literally just getting german, british and italian food and claiming it as your own. Nobody calls curry ‘british food’, in the uk we refer to food like curry as ‘indian’, burgers arnt ‘german’ in the us.
The background sound is amazing.
The brilliance & talent in this video is just unbelievable.
How bout the Falafel King of Shepherds Bush Market?!

No just No, when I go to Japan I want it to feel like I'm going to Japan and expect to see Japanese culture. But you'll more than get your "globalization" give it 20 years when different groups wonna break up your country.
Congratulations on a great presentation ! Street food is a huge and varied aspect of London life. Every market will have some and how many markets are there ? 15 ? 20 ? Not sure.
Just take my money. Take it now! Those all look so amazing!
When the best foods in your country are other country's cuisine ._.
British people are know for their bad food and bad cooking skills but let me tell you something, I’ve lived in London and I absolutely love the street food markets, they sell the most delicious and incredible foods ever!! Next time I will definitely try out these places
Interesting 🤣, nice too meet you
