Just wanted to say thanks for all you do to keep our Chinatowns alive. Boston Chinatown doesn't get the love it deserves. Really appreciate you taking the time to visit and shine a spotlight on some great places. Next time you come back, would definitely recommend hitting up some Taiwanese spots. Taiwan cafe is a personal fave.

[@timsu3042]

Taiwan cafe is so bad and inauthentic what are you talking about

[@joshcostanza7250]

I got a whole bag of frozen dumplings from Taiwan Cafe. So good but quite fatty

[@charleswu6266]

We are group of families from NJ and Houston. Went in Taiwan Cafe with great expectation, came out with disappointment. Please take that Taiwan from their name, nothing we ordered can said authentic Taiwanese dishes.

[@amaurycabraljorge4785]

I dont know how Taiwanese Authentic that place is but Taiwan Cafe slaps!! Food is amazing and they have very good tea too

[@joeg8502]

Chinatown in Boston doesn’t deserve any love at all .. I have been working in the forty for years and Chinatown is full of disgusting unsanitary people and also restaurants .. Bostonians should all come together and get rid of Chinatown and everybody who lives in it

[@Ghostface3200]

Born and raised in the Boston area. Chinatown has really evolved. Kept up with the times. Very proud of the new gen entrepreneurs. They just need to figure out the parking situation. Been impossible to find parking for decades.

[@emenikeanigbogu9368]

Honestly might never get solved

[@jacquir8331]

Born and raised in Boston when they decided to remove the metered parking spots from Kneeland and Washington streets that ruined the areas businesses. A must eat restaurant is Hong King Eatery at 79 Harrison ave. The bbq pork is insanely delicious.

[@winstonward5129]

parking will never be fixed, they want us all on public transit

[@happybudda92]

YOU HAVE TO GO TO: Winsor Dim Sum Cafe. It’s literally across the street from Shojo. I weeped when I realized you weren’t going to Winsor. Haha

Thanks Fung Bros for highlighting the food and people from Boston's Chinatown. I'm originally from the 626 where the level of Asian food is obviously unparalleled, but you gotta respect the history and how long this community has persevered on the east coast. Wish I could've run into you guys on the street. Long time subscriber and love your channel.

[@katrinathatsit]

I live in Boston, and I’m so grateful for this video! Out of the places I’ve tried from this video, I can say they definitely deserve to be on this list! So now I know I NEED to go to the places I haven’t tried.

[@JoeChok]

Ayyyy that was me in all black across the street at 24:00 I was wondering who the fuck was shouting at drivers. Then I realized it was the Fung Bros and asked for a picture. These guys were chill af. Hope yall had a nice time here, better be rooting for the Celtics next time you come back tho hahahahaha

[@jacquir8331]

A must restaurant is Hong Kong Eatery @ 79 Harrison ave. Get the BBQ Pork it is insanely delicious!

[@sambarrassed]

Thanks for featuring Boston spots!! They need more love. Banh Mi Ba Le is great too (but 15min from there)

[@nielitathompson-brown542]

Best in Boston for sure,!

[@karinpawluk4376]

[@ramirom1434]

Is it by a T stop? Apologies but just starting to get back out post-Covid. The Chinese enclave always a must stop. Any suggested dishes?

Loved your video & the way you bros. Communicate with one another as well as announce the dish in unison.I am going to try some of your recommendations.

Boston thought its not that big compared to NYC I have had the best versions of every cuisine there... indian , ramen, chinese, nigerian food. Boston knows whatsup theres alot of good food

Rest In Peace Ken!! Worked with him in college, he was always nice and humble to everyone

Only been to Boston a few times, but Penang was a favorite recommended by my in laws. Ate there 3x and were never disappointed. Boston Chinatown is full of surprises, love from the 6ix.

[@loribanana5930]

YALL ARE THE BEST! THANK YOU! Who paid you to say such nice things about Boston?!? I've been watching you guys for years and can't believe you came to Boston and showed me so many cool spots!

[@montgomeryparktreasurer2260]

[@Regza600]

I love WAI WAI, that’s legit my favorite place to eat at work. Glad to see Wai is getting the recognition he deserves.

yasss supporting the local Chinatown spots! loving it! definitely check out the Egg Puff Lady, Tora Japanese Restaurant, and Sweet Waffles & Boba next time! ;)

Chinese Flatbread Company, New Golden Gate, and Peach Farm are great spots to try if you are ever back in Boston. Love this episode!

[@jennifergalecia]

This is amazing, my home! Now I really want to go back. Penang is where I had my first fried ice cream experience. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, well done guys,

[@bostonbob9667]

I love Boston Chinatown lots of great memories and great food back in the 1980's my friends rented the entire top floor of a building (art studio) Chinatown it has it's own style. My friends and I were art school students and had so much fun and met lots of friendly shop and restaurant owners . Dim sum on Sunday with a case of beer under the table good times

[@SteelySinner]

Gene's Flatbread should have totally been included. Amazing Xi'An cuisine, their garlic chili oil noodles are bomb!

[@717DTran]

Love your visit at Wai Wai! OG holding it down

[@dublinsfaircity]

Great show guys. All the food looked good and Boston Chinatown looked fun. Must get over sometime. Love from Ireland 💚

Boston is incredibly diverse. People dont know it because of the movies that only show one type of boston, and because people only visit downtown and college neighborhoods. Boston and the surrounding area has every type of neighborhood you could think of.

[@petalchild]

So true. Boston is so misrepresented.

[@106andie]

I agree!

thanks for this, was in somerville and boston last week and didn't know what was new in chinatown.

I was in Boston a few weeks ago and had some good lobster rolls.

[@1bwash]

If you are in Boston, whether it is living or visiting, you have got to be in Chinatown. It is so underrated and I pray to god all the gentrification and cost of living stuff doesn't make it collapse because it is amazing. You can walk in to any restaurant and get great food for a reasonable price.

My father used to work in Boston decades ago when Chinatown was called the 'Combat Zone' we would occasionally meet him for lunch and we went to this Chinese restaurant in the lower level of a building in Chinatown and it was fantastic.
