[@PredictableEnigma]

I wonder if the woman that sat across from you just has a dislike for food vloggers and was trying to ruin the shot to assert dominance

[@Kurry34]

Nah, she's just Chinese.

[@dorothytinman]

@@Kurry34 There's a lot of people in China. You don't get to have your own table.

[@kareny5438]

That's what Chinese people do at dim sum. If there's no one sitting at a seat, it's available.

[@marmitex9980]

Maybe she was hitting on him and leaving the shopsticks to him was a way to demonstrate non verbally that shes up to give him her woodies.

[@masansr]

Weak. Should've periodically flipped the bird to the camera just for show.

[@Banana_Cream_Pie]

“Is the dumpling tasty?” Got me dying😂

[@krusher181]

He definitely asked if they were tasty… cuz the store is called Tasty Dumpling… Wasn’t that bad tbh…

[@Farmpy]

4:10 In Cantonese culture it's common for ladies to leave chopsticks on your table as a sign that they like you.

[@GonzaloFBP]

Damn, of course the introvert wouldn't notice when a girl likes them

[@bellobello4633]

As a person who speaks Cantonese, I confirm this.

[@thefriendlywardrobe]

asking the clerk if the dumpling is tasty - 10/10

[@vacuousbard6410]

My mom's like that, asking fruit seller if the fruit's good.

[@nourgaser6838]

"It's actually not that good, I'd personally recommend you take your business elsewhere". 😮 My parents ask the same kind of questions and it's just like, what do you think they're gonna say?

[@clutchskit2510]

I almost killed myself when he asked if the dumplings are tasty

[@SnoopyReads]

You good?

[@MisterNightfish]

Notice how the one he said "I'll try this again in the future" was the one he rated 5/10 so the way to get people to come back isn't to make amazing food, but aggressively mediocre food is the way to go.

[@tahahaider5836]

If it's mediocre, you'd want to give it another chance

This channel is a perfect example of that

[@Klaevin]

I just realized why I love this guy so much. All the shorts creators are always so pretentious, with their claw cutting, chopstick stirring, asmr sound mixing and always perfect ingredients that makes cooking seem way harder than it really is. futurecanoe (and other cooking channels I ACTUALLY watch) show how to cook for yourself, follow recipes and nook like a normal person. This makes it so much more approachable and inspiring

[@Ant_Goat]

What other cooking channels

[@TheTemptress13]

@klaevin which other channels do you watch ??

[@BichaelStevens]

Ragusea "why I season my board not my meat. Joshua "I made fast food BETTER for ONLY 3000$" Weissman Babish "bring out your 500$ stand mixer and kosher salt" Etc

[@Klaevin]

@@BichaelStevensJoshua is especially insufferable. Stop trying to force memes. I mean, it's sometimes fun to watch, but I check my phone every time he calls himself "papa" or something like that. Adam, I can stand, just because of how nerdy he is, and I genuinely learn a lot from the science parts and most of his advice is good and applicable, but his ad spots are horrendous. Babbish is cool to watch every so often, but I can't binge him, like I can binge Futurecanoe. (what was that about blending kosher salt? I need to see that one) My Name is Andong is in the same vein as Joshua, except that instead of trying to create memes, he just pads out run time. Then, there's people like Guga, where it's just content. not bad, some great, but mostly mid. I enjoy the chemistry of the three when they all get together and try the latest experiment. my favorite of all time is Boris. now THAT is how you learn to get through college. and the rest of your 20s. and your 30s... all the way through life, in fact. Until you become potato-mashing, cheburek-slinging, blin-flipping babushka, CYKA! There is definitely a place for people with precise recipes and instructions. But cutting your veggies like a professionnal chef, using a specialized machine, and taking all the time in the world to ferment your own bread just comes off as pretentious and disingenuous ('cos ain't nobody got time for all that!). Only showing "perfect" and "try hard" recipes just makes cooking less approachable and while it isn't the only factor, it definitely contributes to making people eat less healthy. For example, I love cooking. It's a nice way to spend my time. I go to the store, get the cheapest meat (that's often in the "expires tomorrow" bin) and figure something out. And then, I eat that for the rest of the week. I _know_ how to make bread: I once made my own raviolis (or pelmenis) and had too much dough at the end. I added milk and yeast and made my own bread. But if I have some important guests that I want to impress with a nice meal, and I chose to make gourmet burgers; I buy the best bread from my baker and focus on making the meat perfect. The baker will make sure to make perfect bread. How many videos have I seen, where brioche bread is made as a 5 minute side quest? Are you effing serious?

[@BichaelStevens]

@@Klaevin I HATE Boris's fake Russian stereotype BS. Even worse seeing that as his neighbor. >Ravioli = pelmeni Che schifo! Stronzo!

[@hotkfclover6169]

I like how you do vlogs sometimes, definetely nine out of ten for this video, 9.3/10

[@ShiranuiLoki]

The cantonese lady sitting across you is talking in Mandarin. "Wu bo hui yao ni la" = I don't bite you. Meaning "Don't worry, I won't bite." Not sure if they said anymore than that because the audio cut away there.

[@lizzykayOT7]

'Tasty Dumpling' and 'The Little One' looked like the only ones I'd be interested in. My fav Chinese restaurants usually have the word 'dragon' in their name, and I like when the cashiers have a heavy accent and yell orders. Even when the place isn't busy.

[@KatieSalisbury]

Joe’s Ginger has no relation to Joe’s Shanghai and it is the lesser of the two. I learned that lesson the hard way. If you want the real deal, go to Joe’s Shanghai next time for the xiaolongbao. Also, Wah Fung No. 1 is worth the hype! When I lived in Chinatown 15 years ago it only cost $2.50 for a portion that lasted two meals. Hope their gas gets turned back on soon!

[@GDIGhostStalker]

Joe’s Ginger is the lesser Cantonese spin-off of Joe’s Shanghai when they were down the block from each other on Pell Street. They had the same owner, the eponymous Joe Si. I never noticed a difference between the XLB between the two, and the Joe’s that used to be in Elmhurst was where I first had XLB when my uncle took me there as a a clueless teenager and now it’s where I compare all other XLB to. Joe’s tends to be more fatty than other XLB I’ve tried, with a meatier broth, and I’ve noticed the same at Joe’s Ginger. RIP their original Flushing location, another casualty of the pandemic; used to go there all the time when I visited my parents in Flushing. Nowadays the relation is not acknowledged by Joe’s Shanghai, and the drift has gotten more pronounced after Joe’s Shanghai moved to their new location on Bowery. Also, the waitstaff is not the best, but I’m not there for the staff and the food is still decent, if more expensive now.

[@wavehellhole]

I prefer Joe’s Mama

[@LifesAScript]

You definitely need to make more, but bring them home to evaluate the food. It is a better vibe than the in dinner experience. Anyways, good journey's. Always a great vibe watching your channel, just a different style in this one, i agree with continuing both paths for more content for more people. Just don't stop either, or that could be a bad idea. Continue the good work and expect to see substantial growth soon.(assumption) How soon, that is all dependant on how many paths of content you follow. So the more ideas, with multiple versions of your content, but keeping the old. That's important man. Take every path you think is right, and grow from those.
