$20 FOOD Challenge for 24 HOURS l Hurstville BEST Banh Mi & Soy Sauce Chicken l Sydney Cheap Eats

[@mariaandbryan]

Find that Hong Kong tea, Helmi, we believe in you!!! Pork is delish but duck is just as good for us. Yes, you are missing the steamy rice, agree. but look at that chicken, Nick!! Brain freeze is the worst! We love dumplings, can you find them for under $5? That is good! We recently had dumplings and also found them a bit dry. Totally hear you.

[@danielfife713]

Great video guys. I see Helmi loves the mushroom heads :)

I with you, the Westfield car park is a nightmare mare . The place with the duck in the windows has a great sweet and Sour Pork ready cooked.

[@gokugoku834]

Legit review they always hit in Hurstville

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

Milk tea would go great with that bun indeed. The bbq place looks like a good choice. That chicken looks amazing.

[@FoodandFootprints]

You guys did a great job with this challenge! Some legit food options here and can tell you weren't trying to jam something in just because it's cheap.

[@TravelInteresante]

Love the challenge videos! It is super cool to find out what your budget can get you. Such a huge and delicious looking sandwich! Love any coconut flavored dessert but pineapple bread is looking really good too! Dumplings are my favorite among everything you had!

[@mariaandbryan]

Yay! A $20 food challenge!! Starting with a Bahn mi is the best way to start. Why you can't eat liver, Helmi? We are missing the rain guys, summer has arrived and we are burning lol

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

You guys did great with your spending. Glad you found your car too. 😂

[@cwrigh13]

My favourite spot in Hurstville is Dumpling King restaurant. They have a hand made noodles with garlic and chili which is amazing.

[@bettyboop7426]

Good old Hurstville,I recall many years before Club Central it was Catholic Club with $1 meals with dessert and used to go to end of day special in food court,not sure if dumpling place still open in outdoor area near cinema,I think you got good deals and looking forward for Lakemba Ramadan to come back this year, Hurstville bused to have more choices in past,Thanks

[@V2Movement]

Hey guys have you tried "Golden Sands Restaurant" in Hurstville its the best dumplings and yum cha in Hurstville!

[@TwoHungryDiners]

The banh mi looks amazing! For the price, it looks so worth it 👍🏻 $1.5 pineapple bun is a steal 👌🏻

[@linnyunt]

Yeah, the Westfield car park can be confusing. Just catch the train next time.

[@linnyunt]

I used to buy banh mi from Kings when I lived in Hurstville. I miss it so much! Love that you've finally highlighted Hurstville.

[@nickandhelmi]

Cant wait to go back and do another full episode Lin, so much good food in Hurstville

[@MitchellBPYao]

everywhere happens to be taken

[@TwoHungryDiners]

Nice to see Kurimu expanded to Sydney too 😁 Love their choux pastry. $5 for a quarter chicken right? Looks super juicy, so worth the price 👍🏻

[@FoodandFootprints]

The banh mi from King's Hot Bread looks really good - even if there isn't a bunch of pate. The bread is crucial and looks like they nailed it!

[@RudyVisuals]

Haha I too thought that the pineapple bun had pineapple in it at first

[@daniumemoto]

Agreed about the car parking haha

[@nickandhelmi]

Right?! We thought our car was stolen and ended up walking through entire car park floor to realise it's the wrong floor 😂😂

[@ayengaming18]

Great Vid Nickand Helmi

[@KimchiAndBeansVideos]

That's such a tough challenge when you're exploring a place almost from scratch with only $20. Banh mi looks bomb.

[@hiromitravel]

The food looks really yummy! 💕I enjoyed the trip with you! 💕😊

[@RudyVisuals]

The banh mi looks so delicious and so cheap too! Even on the cheapest option they don't skimp out on the filling

[@justinfuller3957]

Great video guys!

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks always justin🙏🏼😊

[@linnyunt]

I think the soft serve machine they use is the same brand as McDonald's. Always broken. 🤣

[@finito_la_musica]

Hello, Maria and Jon here - your loyal viewers! We are hoping that you guys could do a little bit of exploring up at Carlingford Court. They’ve got a Jiggly Cake shop with amazing Jiggly Cheesecakes worth a mention, not to mention other eateries. Keep up the good work and interesting videos. See you next time…

[@feliciaputeri5725]

You guys are so awesome. The Sydney food explorer, you guys just know where to find good foods 😋😋😋

[@jurrassitol15]

Ooooh Kurimu and Hokkaido cheese tarts! They are opening a store in westfields parramatta…so keen for it!

[@nickandhelmi]

I saw it!! Should try the choux pastry from Kurimu then cheese tarts from Hokkaido haha😊 BTW we wanna do the Ramadan Night Market next week!! :D

Love that roast duck! Nice video😄

[@nickandhelmi]

It looks like roast duck but actually soy chicken hehe

[@ZCAnnabelle]

@@nickandhelmi Really?! Thank you for letting me know. I was in the middle of something while watching it the 1st time. I’m watching it again without distraction this time 😃

[@PogiboyProductions]

Great job with this $20 challenge! So much options for little money. Chicken and Char Siu all day 😋

[@nickandhelmi]

Thank you 🤗

[@coffeesnob1992]

I usually go to Hurstville for malatang so great to see other great options. My next advise would be Eastwood :P

[@nickandhelmi]

We love Ewoo, so definitely on our list🙌🏻 Carpark in Eastwood is also nightmare, we got booked by ranger once coz over only by 10mins!😑

heyyy joseph tagged you in IG post, we'll try more restaurants as u recommend too, thank you so much🙏🏼 also thanks for taking time to take picture with us hahaa.. we felt like celebrity!😂🙈

[@teddy2663]

If you're back in Hurstville try Thai Thae just north of Westfield, they do the best Thai food in the area 😋

[@ChandySaoStreeteats]

$5 for chicken!! yesss!! how did i miss this place in my last trip to Sydney.

[@cherryripe1539]

Yes. You went to the best BBQ shop. Always long queue on special days. Especially on Chinese New Year , there would be at least 30+ people in the queue.

[@MitchellBPYao]

Did you seriously walk into every shop here

[@cherryripe1539]

@@MitchellBPYao I live in the area for 20 years. I know the shops well.

[@UnboxedTreasure]

Everything looks very delicious 🤤🤤 Love your video ❤❤❤

[@LifetimeTravelmates]

considering the size, the pineapple bread was a good choice we think...hehe. The 5 dollars only chicken ! yes we agree with Nick! the rice will complete the meal. But still it looks amazing! Oh wow the pork dumpling ! yeah we also like juicy one but the meat looks legit!

[@atlau]

Great video guys. Confirm that Golden Sun BBQ is excellent, it's certainly my favourite. Next time try Roast Goose at Taste of Shunde. It's the best..!

[@nickandhelmi]

Wooottt OK thank you for the recommendation!!🙏🏼

[@aptx4829]

Great video guys, could you do an episode for ramadan markets in Lakemba? Looking forward for your next video

[@nickandhelmi]

Hehehe YES next week episode❤️‍🔥

[@Mooksymooksy]

You guys didn’t get the chicken crunchies from King’s hot bread. It’s super cheap and delicious. Also you forgot to check the train station. They have a lot cheap eats there. Mr Chao’s have better soya sauce chicken but Golden Sun does better crispy pork belly.

[@nickandhelmi]

Ohhh next time thanks mooksy for the recommendation 🙌🏻😋

[@LittleQween65]

Love love these $20 challenges!

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks so much Laura🤗🥰

[@evogardens]

Great video guys ! I regularly go to Hurstville for dinner...but I must say that I think it's not as good as it used to be. A few of my favourite eateries have closed recently, probably due to the pandemic. I always go to the Kings hot bread bakery for a Banh mi. Prefer Mr Chao for BBQ duck and pork. There is also a BBQ shop in the train station food court, that isn't too bad. I go to the Meridian club for a combo Chow mein. The Good Kitchen does one of the best Shan tun chickens...but it's not cheap. Love the sausage buns at Diamond bakery. There is also "Extra Crispy Chicken" down the end of Forrest Rd near the post office. I tried it once, and it's quite good. Lastly, if you're in Westfield's around 4.30/5.00p.m, the food courts start selling cheap food...Thai, Chinese, rolls, Pides etc. Yesterday I went to Cabramatta to eat. Stay well guy's ! 👍🇦🇺 Jim.

[@nickandhelmi]

love this Jim!! We always love to hear local recommendations hehe🙏Okay Mr Chao sounds like really good BBQ place so we definitely trying it. Hope you enjoyed Cabra and stay well too :)

[@aimanchahl7785]

Hi Nick and Helmi I thoroughly enjoy your vlog.Please try Tornados Smokehouse in Concord on majors bay road.Chef Barzan smokes and rubs all his meats with tender loving care.His ribs are even better than anything I have had in the USA.The onion rings and buffalo wings are amazing too.

[@nickandhelmi]

Ohh thank you for the recommendation Aiman🙌🏻 We havent explore Concord too, so thanks a lot🙏🏼

[@aimanchahl7785]

Hi Nick and Helmi, Please also try The Savoury Dining on concord road which is an all you can eat Vietnamese tapas.The manager there is Ben. My other recommendation is Threeonenine also on concord road which is a French Asian fusion restaurant owned by chef Graham.Keep up the good work.

[@FoodandFootprints]

That $5 soy sauce chicken looks like a gem!

[@MitchellBPYao]

Cant wait to go back

[@mangonuomici2583]

I recommend Diamond Bakery particularly for their sesame or peanut nuomici plus a variety of more unique pastries like maltose/wintermelon pastries and the mooncakes. Also Spice Temple for their Sichuan dishes - twice cooked pork, stir fried beef with chili, stir fried chicken with eggplant and dry fried spicy intestines

[@nickandhelmi]

soo after we walked down after Bakery King, we saw the Diamond Bakery! Okay will try this next time for sure :D Gosh sichuan dishes, perfect for this weather too. Thank you so much for the recommendation🙏

[@PeterandYen]

Nick must really love banh mi 😂 please do one more banh mi episode 🙏 it is the best 👌 top 100 banh mi in Australia 🇦🇺 that bakery looks really authentic to Hong Kong. That's often how they look like there too. Mmmm roast duck and dumplings looked bomb need some of that for lunch 🤤

[@irena-talita]

I am loving the $20 challenges ..The Banh mi was nice and I agree the dumpling 🥟 dough is better when it’s thinner ,The bbq was a great price and looked so yummy ..I think your should do a video on the best Chinese BBQ places ..great video ..x🥰❤️💕

That sounds like great idea irena!! Thanks always for the support🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@nickandhelmi]

Thanks so much selwen!!🙏🏼Hehe yeah almost every suburb in sydney now got one banh mi place😂

[@c2w200]

Best BBQ Hurstville has to be Mr Chao, for taste but Golden Sun for Healthiness

[@nickandhelmi]

Thank you!! We'll try Mr Chao next time 😁

[@evogardens]

Agreed....Mr Chao is the best. There used to be one at Marrickville years ago.

[@peterc5318]

I’m local and Mr Chao is the best Chinese bbq in Hurstville 😂

[@MitchellBPYao]

There's two

[@linnyunt]

Usually with duck you hardly get any meat too. It's mostly skin and bone. 😂

[@ice_creme]

If you’re in Hurstville again. Try the pork bun @ Big Bun for $2. Good snack

[@journeyman6752]

Char siu is my fav roll from Kings. The meat is sliced so thin and so delicious! now $8
