Derrick I love you so much. And I am impressed ☺️😁 with your chop sticks skills 🙂😃

[@monicadwoodward]

Hey that’s me! It was my pleasure serving you and we hope to see you back soon!!!

[@AllYouCanVegas]

Thanks so much, Monica!

[@bassethound1]

What gracious service! We will ask for you!

[@olefella7561]

@@AllYouCanVegas Would you lovely couple like to try out Chinatown food in Las Vegas sometimes in the future? May I suggest some of my favorites; roast duck, egg foo young and some Clay Pot dishes? I'm headed to Vegas this Winter which is my first trip to Sin City in 20 years, and would be exploring Chinatown for some of my favorite dishes.

[@breestone8978]

Thats cool 😀🙂😂

[@johntom9406]

Do employees get a discount on their meals?

[@SpicyWoodsman]

I hope that these restaurants appreciate channels such as yours. They introduce non-traditional cuisines to the average Vegas vacationer. This restaurant went from a place I would never give a second look at (because I was completely unaware of the cuisine), to a place that would be a must-visit. The food looks absolutely fantastic. Great job as usual.

[@erxaxp82]

Din Tai Fung is literally one of the most well-known restaurant franchises in the world with locations in 15 countries...think they were doing just fine...

[@robbyfrankel2012]

this is the definition of traditional cuisine.

[@jpechsu238]

I'm Taiwanese and went to Din Tai Fung many times here in Taiwan. Yes, everything is as exactly the same as here. It's nice to know you like it 👍

[@beckyjackson7755]

So glad Catherine is on camera now. You both make wonderful videos and compliment each other perfectly!!

[@weege001]

sometimes derek looks like hes never held a utensil before...

[@CH-tg6zq]

That's why we love him. His excitement upon seeing a great dish delivered to the table is priceless!!! 😊

[@janetmcintyre7718]

I love the way he enjoys his food.😀

[@lionelraoul]

It's the level of his excitement. Once at the Wynn his lost the ability to speak for 20 seconds.

[@barbarapatrick2687]

Derek rocks!

[@xzgun100]

OMG I was thinking the same 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CarmineTavernaPhotography]

I VOTE TO HAVE YOU THE SPOKESPERSON FOR THE VEGAS RESTAURANT OWNER'S ASSOCIATION..(i just made that up) BUT OMG YOU WOULD BOOST THERE REVENUE

[@Beyondesp]

Am glad when others try authentic cuisines from other regions. I love Din Tai Fung. I have gone to the original ones in Taiwan and they are fantastic.

[@priscillasolanki6390]

Dumpling heaven ! Alot of hard work goes into making dumplings & broths it's all about fresh ingredients well made full of big flavours. Great to see you back doing what we love to see you doing that is eating up a storm & sharing your experiences with us your loyal devoted fans 🌝 I'm glad both you & your lovely lady enjoyed your beautiful Asian cuisine together turned out to be a great night out, good for you trying new things is great to see. Although I miss you having fried chicken. Asians do fried chicken well with lemongrass do try it sometime your just love it👍🥂⚘❤

[@chdvndsn]

I love your enthusiasm at the 2:48 mark when you receive the vegetable dumplings. It's like a kid on Christmas day. Love your channel!

[@saltyunclesugar4412]

IF IT AIN'T FRIED, IT AIN'T FOOD. NEXT TRIP WILL BE VEGAS ,JUST FOR THE FOOD. ALL BECAUSE OF THIS SHOW.. KUDOS

[@Mizzlinda14]

I could eat all those dishes! Looks so good. Thanks for the review. I'm watching some of your older videos. I'm glad Catherine is on screen now. She adds so much!

[@smythe62]

Thanks ! Will try this place in a couple of weeks ! Looks great.

[@KhornPark88]

Beautiful country, delicious food, thank you for sharing

[@jeankendall3291]

The next time I go to Vegas, I am going to go try this looks soooo GOOD!! Love the video, Thanks!!

[@jessiehardy7835]

Always enjoy your videos when you enjoy your food your eyes pop with excitement really enjoyed

[@melaneymattson3733]

That ending with the Chocolate Dumpling took me over the edge! YUM

[@toniatlga9840]

Thanks for always bringing cool Vegas videos.

[@L.V.1]

You are supposed to poke a hole in the soup dumpling so the broth fills the spoon. 😂

[@Kwijiboi]

Nah. No definitive right way to eat it. I like to let it cool a little, and put the black vinegar and ginger in a spoon with the dumpling, and pop the whole thing in my mouth to let it explode like a juicy gusher. Never understood the whole tear a hole method. Why bother making a skin that can hold the soup if all you are going to end up with is a spoon of soup with a ripped up dumpling on it? You could do that without putting soup inside the dumpling. I guess that method makes sense if you have a small mouth or cant bite with your mouth closed. 🙄 Seriously, try it as a one-pop and let me know if you think it's worse.

[@grottorabbit]

I like Derek's bite and suck #VampireStyle better!🤣

[@sandraharth8489]

I just love it when Derek rolls his eyes.

[@marydifiore7762]

Your eyes tell the whole story.

[@yamotos]

Love this place ! They are many around the world and amazing food! Good choice of foods their signature pork chop rice is always Amazing ! You picked all the right items ! Great video

[@SlotSlayer44]

The chocolate dumplings are liquid GOLD! ❤️❤️. Also a favorite is the green bean dish and the cucumbers with the spicy oil. Delicious! We have several Din Tai’s in the Los Angeles area, closest one to me in Glendale. We love it there.

[@lisawalkerblodgett3055]

All the dips, sauces, oils.... yum. Makes the dishes that much more interesting. That hot and sour soup looks fantastic

[@claudiaday5893]

Derek, I just love listening to you describe the food where you go to dine. As soon as your posted video popped up I had to click on 👍 you are the best 👍

[@kazzyo66]

Derek, you are our hero when it comes to tasting food. I can almost taste everything just by your expressions of enjoyment. Love you so much. Keep your amazing videos coming. Kazz & Jim 🇬🇧

[@aarontheobald]

Dude ! Your my favorite in VEGA$ ! Your work is amazing and always makes me hungry for more! Keep it winning dude ! High honors for you ! 💪😷👌

[@philvie]

The pork chop fried rice is my favorite item at din tai fung, my mouth is watering now

[@grottorabbit]

Dumplings, soups noodles, pork chop rice and desserts all looked delicious! Too bad I left Las Vegas before seeing this! Another great video Derek!

[@nickkirby1536]

Looks so delicious literally my mouth watering the whole time, I gotta come out sometime and hopefully meet up w you Derek and show me the best spots. I watch all your videos and oh my goodness you knock it outta the park every time and make me hungry as heck! Best wishes and hope to see more vids soon!

[@mafacio33]

We went last Saturday because of your video. My daughter insisted we try it. The dumplings, rice and noodles were delicious. Thank you!

[@keelyguillot4184]

I have to stop watching these videos while hungry!

[@aimee2816]

Omg, yum! You've made me have some serious cravings. Another awesome video! Take good care :)

[@MegaChocolatetruffle]

Great video. I was salivating the whole time! My favorite would be the spicy won tons. Loved it when your eyes glazed over at the first taste.

[@may4935]

That food looked so delicious 😋. Glad you got a demo on how to eat soup dumplings, but you still made it look hard😆. Thanks for another great video Derek

[@soxrox2574]

All the food looks great. Especially the pork dish with rice 😋

[@yvonneacosta2539]

I have seen other videos about this restaurant in their other locations and now that they are in Las Vegas I will definitely make a stop on my next trip. Thank you Derek. Stay safe.

[@clindquist21]

I have a special place in my heart (and mouth) for the spicy pork and shrimp wontons. In order to avoid wasting one drop of that delicious sauce, I just order a 2$ side of noodles, and then pour all that left over goodness on top of the noodles, and I have a whole nother dish on the cheap.

[@debsr9586]

Should not be watching that while hungry!! Best wishes from Scotland x

[@jliu34740]

Derek you ordered all the right items, and looks like you enjoyed it too. DTF is the best

[@GeorgeLaird]

I could eat wonton soup forever. love it Derek

[@carlareyes5728]

Everything looked great! 👍🏼

[@JJ-pd7td]

Thank you differently will try out when I go to LV and hopefully that is soon! All looked delicious😋

[@JoseGarcia-bw9go]

We just hate this on Tuesday the day after they open! OMG! It was so good! You should try the food in Chinatown also!

[@capri611z]

I went to an all you can eat sushi conveyor belt place in Chinatown on my last trip to Las Vegas and it was amazing! Going off the strip to explore the city is so worth it!

[@polarbear353]

Wow, you just gave me another excuse to go back to Vegas. Everything looked absolutely delicious. I love your videos Derek, you bring an enthusiasm similar to a kid in a toy store and it's great.

[@RobinVerne]

Please show your wife more. She is a lovely delightful person. She brings positivity to your videos in a unique aspect.

[@TheSlotRipper]

Always enjoy your vids Derek....I miss seeing the buffets...hopefully we are back to normal soon...Good luck to you!

[@mshockey73]

If I ever get to Las Vegas I'd definitely want to eat there. Yum!!! You're pretty good with the chopsticks:)

[@Pepperhead886]

I’m so glad you went here! I can’t wait to try this restaurant when I next go to Vegas.

[@mikefitz445]

Definitely excited to go here on my next trip. I've always wanted to go to a Din Tai Fung. Happy to see this in Vegas now.

[@DLVTT]

Hallo from Denmark, Good to see your back, enjoy Vegas ;-)

[@KP-oe8sk]

YUMMY!!!!! Everything looked DELICIOUS!!! That is a great price too!! Everything looked so clean ( not overpowered by Sauces and Gravy)like some types of Chinese food.You can taste the food!!

[@fanman71]

One of my favorite places for lunch in LA. Authentic Chinese dumplings. Gotta love it.

[@MariaReyes-yg1lc]

I’m pretty sure you are not following the recommended way to eat the soup dumplings, their signature dish. Use the amazing sauces provided, which diners are supposed mix and use with each dumpling. My son took me to their restaurant in Portland, and I was hooked. The server at that restaurant thankfully provided us with some guidance. One of their restaurants earned a Michelin star, which is a real honor. We’re going to the Aria in a few weeks and will certainly visit this place! Their soups are fantastic.

[@paulpeters5510]

Derek loved you showing us the hot and sour soup!!! My favorite Chinese dish by far!! Looks so good hope to travel here one day to try and thanks for showing us all the new vegas!! 🤗

[@yosig]

Thank you for the review. I was in Vegas 2 weeks ago and was disappointed to see the Aria restaurant was replaced with this place. I will give it a try next time.

[@joeyg149]

I'm Sooooo hungry now !!..

[@luciad5988]

Oh my gosh, I can’t wait to go there!

[@anitap2286]

❤️🙏. i luv all ur food tasting videos. ❤️. Ding Tai Fung should pay u to try their foods. The way u eat makes me so hungry. U reviewed exactly the way the food taste 👍. I was lucky enough to be able to try some of the dishes u ordered at a Ding Tai Fung in California 🍜🥟and now after watching ur video, i think i m going to Ding Tain Fung again for lunch today. Yum yum. 🌺 Wish u & ur beautiful GF always happy, healthy & $$$ so u can review more restaurants for all of us to watch 🙏❤️😉

[@stellap683]

Everything looked amazingly delicious! 😋😋 Missed hearing from your fiancee in this video...but great review Derek! 👍

[@stellarkitty1431]

Now I want Chinese food and it's 855 am🤣🤣😋

[@lisawalkerblodgett3055]

Oh same!!!

[@charlesmilton296]

I just ate an hour ago, strangely I am hungry after watching this video.

[@jenniferlea8082]

Another great video Derek! All of the food looks delicious. I hope they reopen the buffet at Aria because I still haven’t tried it. 🌺

[@ronaldlie2539]

Your videos always makes me hungry 😂. Keep up the good work. Always excited and looking forward to see what's next.

[@CC-dz9hq]

Thanks for posting Derek! We are going here 11/12! And we are so excited.

[@aarontheobald]

This is 🥇of the best All you can VEGA$ videos yet towards a greatest hits ! Awesome job dude ! 💪🍲

[@Tomsushi]

I love how excited you get when its good, cant wait for the day i can go back to Vegas to eat all the food!

[@evelynjoseph9809]

Wow! The Aria cafe is gone. Loved going there for breakfast and when they did dinner, the beef ribs were the best. Will definitely miss the cafe. 😭

[@jackiebrooks526]

Everything looked delicious! That hot and sour soup looked amazing!

[@suzannesanchez4864]

I need to go to Aria Las Vegas to have an incredible dining experience, especially the chocolate dumplings! Wow! 😋🥟🌰

[@divad295]

You always leave me snickering, drooling and hungry!

[@michaelgiordano2093]

I love when you do restaurant videos. Excellent as always 👍👍👍👍😁

[@maryannmanning174]

Everything looks scrumptious! Thank you for sharing.. one thing..... no fried chicken?🤣

[@jensmith7331]

Derek, you & your fiancé always order such a great variety of dishes. Everything looked amazing. The eyes say it all!

[@sunnyboy8644]

Porkchop fried rice is a must order !

[@winstonw2020]

Thanks for the great video, I grew up eating all sorts of dumplings as my dad was a chef and made them for me at home. Looking forward to trying their place once the damn Canadian border opens up for us. Thanks again and hope you and your fiance stay safe.

[@dalebowker3025]

That looked amazing

[@rogercollins3]

That looks fantastic. So jealous. I love me some good dumplings!

[@RyanLackey]

I went there on the second day it was open. For just XLB, there is one other place in Chinatown which is comparable (Shanghai Taste), but for overall dining experience, DTF is great, especially in this Aria location.

[@carlaslife9659]

His facial expressions are everything

[@jimbopsvidz]

Hello from NW Indiana. If we ever fly again it will definitely be back to Vegas, and that place is now on my list.

[@woofolliesmydog8628]

For the love of The Food Gawds, please bring this restaurant to the UK!

[@invincible1200s]

Ooh, love Din Tai Fung! We go the one at the Americana in Glendale.

[@genxer39]

Looks great. We will be there in a couple of weeks.

[@lakerfanjr]

You must've gotten half orders. Usually it's 10 pcs an order for dumplings. I recommend pork chop, bbq ribs and garlic green beans for appetizers. The spicy wontons, pork has more flavor than chicken and nothing there is really spicy. Also, XLB are super easy to eat if you don't fuss about and just pop the whole thing in your mouth. The soup inside is never too hot.

[@randy74989]

Great soup dumplings, had them at the Macau City of Dreams Branch. Made with care and oh so good.

[@floridajim3023]

That was excellent! Thank you Derek!!

[@whitneycastillo7179]

@2:47 that oooh was perfect!

[@skiplazauski1497]

Your video makes me want to go there as soon as possible. I looked up the menu - a little on the pricey side but given what I saw it will be worth it.

[@mtthom8630]

Dereks getting comfortable with chopsticks!!! LOL

[@neilyaremchuk6798]

Derek, the vinegar helps cut the richness of the meat and fat that the dumplings have. It’s a food chemistry thing.

[@vegaslady3732]

Dumplings, shrimp, pork, noodles, & melted chocolate - how could it go wrong? I'll add it to my " must go to " list for my next Vegas trip (assuming they don't close like Wynn's buffet & Mesa grill did). Another great vlog Derek...and a nice shirt too. I'm thinking your Lady is a good fashion influence on you!😀

[@AlexWooKungFu]

Can't wait to try this on Thursday !! It all looks amazing. I'm even gonna snag the chopsticks :D LOL

[@lgr121314]

Aria always has surprises for us. Thanks Derek. I see you next week.

[@lindaperryman2888]

I will have to try this place when I go to Vegas in December. You do good with chopsticks!!

[@msmikemann807]

my mouth is watering, the chocolate dumplings are to die for.

[@lisaanderson8235]

Yum!!!! Soup dumplings are so delicious. ❤️❤️

[@comiketiger]

Dang, this was looking good! Wow. Thanks for the review.
