Head-Sized DUMPLINGS!! 🥟 Chinese FOOD TOUR with Mike Chen!!

Giant dumplings and noodles - Chinese food tour in Greater Los Angeles!
SAN GABRIEL VALLEY, CALIFORNIA - Welcome to San Gabriel Valley in the greater Los Angeles area. Today I’m going with my great friend Mike Chen (‪@strictlydumpling‬ ) on a dumpling and noodles Chinese food tour. We’re starting off with some giant head sized dumplings that you have to eat with a straw!

Long Xing Ji Juicy Dumpling (140 W Valley Blvd Ste 211, San Gabriel, CA 91776, United States) - Total price - $80.28 - To begin this Chinese food tour in San Gabriel Valley we headed to Long Xing Ji Juicy Dumpling, a Shanghainese dumpling restaurant. Along with their regular soup dumplings, the main thing Mike and I came to eat was the massive crab dumplings. They are so big and filled with so much juice and broth that you have to suck them up with a straw. A great start to this food tour.
Lan Noodle (411 E Huntington Dr Suite 102, Arcadia, CA 91006, United States) - Next we went to Lan Noodle, a restaurant that specializes in Lanzhou beef noodles, which are one of the legendary noodles of China. We got a chance to see them as they were making hand pulled noodles, and we ordered a bunch of dishes. They also gave us a few extra dishes, which were delicious.
Luscious Dumplings (4XJJ+PP Monrovia, California, USA) - Finally to wrap up this dumplings and noodles Chinese food tour in LA we went to Luscious Dumplings, one of the best dumpling restaurants in greater Los Angeles. We met with the owner who served us a mix of some of their best dishes including classic dumplings and some new modern dumplings as well. Some of the best dumplings you’ll ever have.
And that completes this amazing dumplings and noodles tour! Thank you for watching!

When Mark and Mike are together, it's way more than just good food. They have a brotherly/college buddy type of vibe. Ya'll mesh so well together. Even Ying was in the background laughing at ya'll. Thanks for the amazing video. MAD LOVE!

This is hands down the most I have enjoyed collaborative content, anywhere at anytime, ever! The positive energy, warm humour and your ways of expressing love for food and culture is so genuine and well matched. My two absolute favourite foodies coming together for a long awaited food tour of the SoCal scene. Such a pleasure to watch two legends who also happen to be good and decent people. Thanks for the early Xmas present! Happy holidays and a safe and happy new year to you both, your beautiful wives, awesome son/nephew and families.

Lady Hawk: I agree, they really are straight forward and decent, which is the real reason I like them together and on their own. A lot of these "food reviewers" are so phony, loud and use unnecessary language. Been subscribed to both their channels for years.

For anyone not familiar with Chinese cuisine, The vinegar Mike seems to put on everything is Chinese red vinegar. You don’t want to substitute any other kind of vinegar for it, and it’s an absolute must. I can’t eat Shanghai soup dumplings without it.

[@CHITUS]

Mark and Mike are magic together. I absolutely loved the way they interact with each other. The food looked amazing. I could almost taste it

[@lauriepenner350]

Seems like forever now since the last time Mark ate Asian food. I was actually eating at a dim sum restaurant as I was watching this! I felt like I was eating with them!

[@crabapples1995]

It’s weird, I really prefer Mark when he eats Asian food tbh. He’s more suited to it, he can better articulate himself when eating a spicy noodle soup in Laos than a chesesteak in Philly.

[@tamvu9914]
