Din Tai Fung is such a good restaurant!

[@YellowProductions]

Agreed!

[@gs7585]

Din Tai is the best!

[@kikyochan66]

Great video! Food looks so yummy! I passed by the location a few months ago, now it’s finally open. Princess looks extra cute today with her mega sized Minnie hairbow ❤

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Kikyo!

[@clairedobson2240]

Many thanks for this Chris

[@michaelsyip]

This new location was stunning when I was able to visit for the first time. Prices are 2-3 bucks higher than the other SoCal locations, but validation is $10 for 6 hours if you dine in which more than definitely covers the cost. Great video Chris!

[@YellowProductions]

Agreed Michael. And yes. It costs a little bit more. But it's worth it is an anchor activity to spend an afternoon or evening at Downtown Disney

[@cottagefulloflove4090]

O I love the new shirt!! And that silly princess haha

[@CathyKoalaCat]

Will have to try Din Tai Fung when we come over next year. Also love the t-shirt. Very cool. 😎

[@YellowProductions]

I think you'll find it yummy 😋

[@pdxaviation]

So good!!!! Looks like the former Rainforest Cafe property?

[@YellowProductions]

I think it's more like a portion of the former AMC theater. Old rainforest Cafe still has the star wars shop in it

Just tried Din Tai Fung for the first time at Valley Fair in San Jose in May, it definitely made me want to go back and try some other things!

[@YellowProductions]

Mmm!

[@jameshiga8077]

Hi Chris. Thanks for the video. Din Tai Fung is a great place for the soup dumplings.Happy it met your expectations. Cool looking shirt. Thanks for sharing and take care.

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks James!

Thanks for the video. Xiao Long Bao are one of those foods/dishes that look appealing to me at first glance, but I know I wouldn't enjoy. I'm not a big soup eater and I generally don't like it when I bite into something and a hot/warm liquid squirts out. It is a bit of an issue because a sort of soup dumpling is one of the great, beloved specialties of the region where I was born, raised and unfortunately still live in. I spent a year in China on an internship as a engineering student 20 years ago and back then, when me, my boss and 2 engineers from another German company flew to China and had our first meals there, the two engineers, who came from a different part of Germany, told me: "Hey, you should feel right at home here, with all those dumplings they eat." To which I could only muster a tortured grin. Of course I found other stuff within Chinese cuisine I liked. I'm just more of a Peking Duck guy, than a Xiao Long Bao, Jiao Zi or Bao Zi guy. That chopped rice cake looks more "up my alley". Never had that in China, but it reminds me of the sliced and stir fried potatoes and eggplants I often had. I was toying with the idea of doing a day of fasting every week and I thought Sunday is the best candidate, but maybe not if you are going to keep releasing restaurant review videos on the weekends, hehehe.

[@YellowProductions]

Hah! Sorry to mess with your fasting routine! I'm definitely a big fan Peking duck too!

[@NostalgiaMan]

Oh My god Soup Dumplings !!!!

[@YellowProductions]

Mmm

[@Twinsen764]

Those apps are too expensive. Usually they are around 5-8 at the Asian place I like to eat! I'll look forward next week for maybe the B-gates tour at DEN. :)

[@YellowProductions]

Indeed. I didn't forget your request. This topic was just more timely 😀

[@SabrinaHClifford]

Chris, I love the shirt, but I look horrible in bright yellow. I know Yellow Productions is your brand...but. That T-shirt with a different background (bright blue?) would be fantastic!

[@YellowProductions]

Thanks Sabrina for the suggestion. I'll consider doing it in different color base shirts 😀

[@pdxaviation]

I see a new shirt 😎

[@YellowProductions]

Good eyes 😀

[@joanna.mytravels]

I have been to their location in London. I enjoyed it but found it to be on more expensive side for smaller portions.

[@YellowProductions]

It's definitely not cheap for sure

Their pork belly is delicious!

[@theaveragejoe5781]

Sorry, I think I meant the Sweet n Sour Pork Baby Ribs

[@bigusdallastexamas5740]

Had the cucumber salad several times at Singapore locations and it's completely different and vastly superior for some reason. I'm not sure why the US version is so different. I'm curious which version is closer to the Taiwan original.

[@YellowProductions]

I'm sure a different source for the cucumbers

Cute

[@somemale]

The crab meat XLB is way tastier, especially in China or Taiwan.

[@kingcrab750]

Xiao Long Bao is from northern China? Wrong. It's from Shanghai, and Shanghai surrounding area has very similar offerings with slightly different taste profiles. Ding Tai Fung is a copy cat, and to an expat from Shanghai like me you can do a lot better for much cheaper in Shanghai. Go visit.

Mark summers does Disney

[@nataliemarciales2204]

Dont like the vibe

[@jayalexander7763]

Hey… the real Disney is in Orlando, FL don’t get me excited you just ruined my weekend 😭 I lived in China & I love Din Tai Fun… I thought you meant Disney in Orlando from the title 😭

[@YellowProductions]

It's Disney Springs in Orlando

[@jayalexander7763]

@@YellowProductions oh really 😳… I could’ve swore you said Disneyland and then I turned off the video lol… my bad 😅

[@edvaira6891]

The REAL Disney is the ORIGINAL DISNEY!! Not your swampy weak-sauce “Magic Kingdom”

[@kikyochan66]

@jayalexander7763 the ORIGINAL Disney is Disneyland, NOT Disney World in Orlando. If you know anything about Disney, you would know that Downtown Disney (it’s in the video title!) is in Disneyland in Anaheim, California. AND Din Tai Fung has nothing to do with China, it’s a Taiwanese restaurant

[@jayalexander7763]

@@kikyochan66 it was a joke about Disney friend… ppl from Cali & Orlando always say which is the real Disney as a joke… & I know it’s from Taiwan I’ve been there too. But still they have in China and I use to go often Chengdu to be exact

[@PaddyMan1988]

Too expensive and not worth for it. 😂😂😂

[@YellowProductions]

More Xiao Long Bao for me then! 😀
