Salmon Bagel at Russ & Daughters and Amazing Tacos at Los Tacos No. 1 in NYC

[@XX-lg6my]

Smoked salmon from Russ and Daughters is HEAVENLY. Probably my favorite food in the city. Sadly I can't afford it but more than once in awhile.

[@zeldax3kid]

Just found this channel but this dude looks extremely happy to be traveling the world to eat food...maybe I should reconsider my career path

[@LostUndertheSky]

If you join the New York Knicks you can eat different foods from all over the world In nyc

@Bengali Warrior thats racism

[@pariahvgc4310]

Did KAT actually watch this video

[@phactsssssss]

Bengali Warrior hosh you are disgusting ?? Who hurt you that you are this sad and bitter ???

[@rlb2444]

Just watching the expression on your face as you take a bite speaks volumes. I am drooling. You do a marvelous job in your reviews. My fave!

[@kyoishmine]

"I think I'll get one...of all the tacos they have" 😂 Excellent choice Mark!

[@saratroost6603]

I love that the first taco place had 80's music in the background. 🎶😁🎶

Those tacos looked insanely good...

"Tacos are the best things in the world", never has a fact more true been spoken.

[@donnacopas9621]

Hello to everyone! I have been following Mark and Ying for a long time and would love to help. Mark and Ying do not eat like this everyday, and they walk.....Sometimes Ying eats before Mark starts the blog. She is shy and does not want to have people watch her eat. Enjoy the time she is on the blog, because she would rather film than be seen. He always makes sure she gets what she wants to eat. They are a good husband and wife and share everything. I hope this answers some of your questions.

[@steffanybalkaran9306]

Donna Copas very well said and very true

[@kiewmai]

well said. Thank you.

[@mariabardo6420]

Plus, in addition to that, most Asian women I know do not like to be filmed while eating. Some of my Asian female friends are really careful with the choice of food while they are eating in public. They prefer to look feminine even when they are eating.

[@FinanceAcademy7799]

Donna Copas well said..it answers all my questions

[@dj.d.yakkha7014]

Maria Bardo i think it relates to all female not jst Asian!!

The best facial reactions to food man has seen. Such joy haha

[@nma2476]

Sometimes I feel like I can't wait to leave NYC (getting tired of the cold weather) but when I see the mixture of different nationalities and customs (and foods 😋 ) I feel totally proud to be a part of it. It really is something special to experience so much diversity.

[@thedriza297]

NAJ2476 I don't know about all that

[@vilmed777]

There's nothing like NYC diversity. I grew up there, I've found no substitutes.

Your face is always happy And makes other happy too ! Just watching u Thx mark !

The salmon bagel is making my mouth water!

I loved Los Tacos No 1 when I was in NYC, glad to see it's still top notch!

[@user-lk6hi4jj2q]

Mark, I have been watching your videos since the Sri Lanka eating with your hands video (5 years ago). Thank you very much for making these lovely videos and thank you for your passion. Keep up the great work :)

[@jungalllife2819]

I really enjoyed your New York City vlogs. Bringing back some great memories. Thanks Mark-Ying-Micah.

[@noseefood1943]

$13.88 for a lox 'n bagel! holly jeez... that's criminal.

[@nuclearthreat545]

no thats new york, middle class people love to over pay for bullshit to feel rich and posh

[@nuclearthreat545]

they also love to wait in lines, people are fucktarded

[@noseefood1943]

also, that korean dinner for two for $55?? that's steep, even in korea town in LA that would be about $35.

[@m.c.9310]

You can't recreate this sandwich because you are not using NYC bagels. They are on another level. Frozen bagels you get in grocery stores cannot compare.

[@m.c.9310]

And the quality of their salmon is well known.

[@wdakkak]

love the way you explain the dish great work

[@jhunter213]

I cannot wait until you post a new vid. I have watched your travels from Jakarta, Manila, Lisbon to NYC. Thank you!!!

[@lisagonzalez9693]

Love seeing Marks excitement when he orders his food!!! Then even better when he eats!!! 😄

[@thethailandcelt8394]

Superb Marc, looked delicious. one day at work this week I didn't have time to go out for lunch and look to see why I had in the fridge I had bread cream cheese and beetroot. and that's what I made a sandwich with bread cream cheese and beetroot. Never had it before but I may have it again. I've just been to my local supermarket and bought some Scottish smoked salmon to replicate the bagele you just ate. Thank you .

[@melissarowsell4652]

thank you for yet another fantastic video. love it and love little Micah! congrats again!!

[@chanchalbagga5490]

Hiii

[@withfootnotes]

People keep commenting "Where's Ying's food?" and things like that as though she is dragged around to film and then starved to death. Like every SECOND of their lives is caught on video, and with no editing. LMAO! Good heavens!

[@heartbreakmanNo1]

Guess ppl like to see Ying get some :"T

[@withfootnotes]

heartbreakmanNo1 As far as I know, this is Mark's vlog. Ying seems shy, as far as what I see so leave it be. They are married and if they decide Ying to be in so be it, otherwise it is Mark's as far as I'm concerned. I do love those snippets of Ying, but she always strikes me as shy and happy to do what she does. Just my observation obviously as I don't know them.

[@MarkWiens]

Thank you Theresa, exactly right!

[@withfootnotes]

Mark Wiens Very welcome, Mark! And Happy Holidays to you and yours!

[@MarkWiens]

Happy Holidays to you as well!

[@acrophobe]

Mark's "good food reaction" is basically the Zapruder film on an endless loop. Down. And to the right. Down. And to the right. Down. And to the right.

Thanks for showing me Russ & Daughters. I've lived in NYC since 2012 and there are still tons of new places to discover. I'm so glad you went to Cho Dang Gol. I love their savory potato pancakes. Bonus points for visiting Chelsea Market on a Saturday! FYI-- your joint video with Hot Thai Kitchen was my introduction to you & your channel.

[@LessTalkMoreDelicious]

Loved it. Delicious lox, bagels and tacos.

[@LazyCookPete]

Another great vid Mark and Ying.

[@EHCBunny4real]

Smoked salmon with bagels is called bagels and lox

[@EHCBunny4real]

Autumn Absinthe You're mistaken because gravLAX and Lox are different. GravLAX is just brined while Nova LOX is brined and cold smoked. LOX is used with bagels for over 50 years in NYC. Lox is very popular.

[@BennyBNYC]

EH CBunny technically lox and smoked salmon are different. Lox is salt cured or brined smoked salmon is smoked. In NY, people call both things "lox." We ALL day "bagels and lox." But 90% of the time people are eating smoked salmon and not lox. Lox is very salty. Please google the difference between lox and smoked salmon if you don't believe me ;)

[@EHCBunny4real]

Benny B Dude, I was born in NYC and I've eaten all three, BUT LOX which is brined and smoked beats all.

[@GrandeMastaSexi]

really? you dont say! Did you also know that if you mix macaroni and grated cheese , its called macaroni and cheese?.....

[@robertk2007]

Lox is different from Nova

[@hiboy37]

Let's do this!! Thanks mark and ying!!

[@williammorales3871]

New York the best. 👍🙏✌️🌞😎🍻

*I agree with Noseefood you should have returned to Flushing Queens to Korea town or my last suggestion Coney Island Brooklyn those dishes could have been purchased much cheaper and with plenty to do, I remember the rail yards on the old west side highway and have modernized for the best since I was a kid, triple thumbs up Mark & Ying!*

[@akosim002080]

i cant stop but notice those sauces dripping at the back of tacos.. aaaaaahhhh..

[@SquidandCatAdventures]

He commented on how they wrapped the back ends with little cones too, which I thought was really great (never seen that before myself), but then he didn't use them, which was disappointing (probably either enjoying it more that way, or thinking that it helped show the taco better on camera).

[@TheRealEvvonne]

For you all who think Mark is fake I am here to tell you he is not. I look for the head tilt because that lets me know the food is awesome! He does not do that head tilt in every video y’all. Thank you for all you do, Mark. Much appreciated! ✨💖💯✨

[@abby06211]

Hello Mark awesome video those tacos looked amazing yummy !!!

[@indicaberzerk4315]

Good morning, another great video as always Mark. Thanks for the upload, it looks delicious.

[@BennyBNYC]

The reason the NYC things are so expensive, besides the fact that NYC is just a very expensive place, is because he is choosing the very best version of those things. He went to the highest rated pizzeria in the country (probably), the highest rated Jewish deli, got the highest rated smoked salmon (although Russ's bagels aren't rated very high)... He is having the Ferrari of foods. NYC has tons and tons of cheap and delicious food but he is aiming for the most famous highest rated stuff.

[@dj.d.yakkha7014]

Benny B good point and that 13 dollar sandwish is way out of most ppl even in the west!!

[@andymiami1983]

hes nto having the ferrari of foods, hes having the 4 door mazarati of foods aka HIGHLY OVERRATED BUT PRICED AS LUXURY

[@letskatielovehuelove9314]

u dont know nothing bout nyc

[@radicalhindu]

Why would he come all the way to NYC not to east the best.

[@ajl1239]

Yeah, but I can get some of the "very best" bread or pastry in Paris for what is still a reasonable price. Honestly, and NYC people constantly make lame excuses for overpriced stuff in their city, a lot of things in NYC are just way overpriced and, quite often too, lacking in quality. Outrageously greedy brokers and landlords don't help the situation, driving up prices for independent businesses.

[@abesapien9930]

Thank you for pointing out the price. It actually makes the item more special and can be enjoyed as a treat.

[@emilysahlen9164]

His expressions are priceless ☺️ The Russ & Daughters is a Jewish Delicatessen and the proper way of saying salmon and a bagel is a bagel and lox’s ☺️ Just for future reference.

[@briangleason5597]

Would you marry me so you can always pronounce it the correct way when we go and get one.

[@lana4u1]

I was born and grew up in Greenpoint Brooklyn in the early 50's. Lox, cream cheese on a bagel is part of my childhood.

[@RaviKiran_Me]

i want to see ying reviewing food for once :P

[@vq6274]

may be she doesn't want to ???

[@ryanloco7567]

She doesn't speak fluent English maybe

[@WR3ND]

I think you're in the wrong place then. Channel name says "Mark Wiens." :p Sure, Ying is nice and helps out a lot, but this isn't her thing so much, at least not as a reviewer on this channel. You can tell by her expressions, if you've been paying attention.

[@michaelboshko8206]

go check out her channel. She reviews KFC. She's not into food

[@gmwilliamsful]

LOVE Russ & Daughters!

[@KittiChan1]

holy shit, almost 14$ for that one classic bagel sandwhich and 14$ dollar for all the tacos. Damn I think I'm gonna stick to mexican food when I'm in New York.

[@thebluescaptain]

Ripoffs are everywhere, in any shape, so yeah don't let your guards down lol.

[@miamiron]

good luck with the shits

[@mrpersianality6363]

You can get great bacon egg and cheese bagel sandwiches for like $3. Mark went to too many hyped up joints and tourist traps in NYC Normally, a smoked salmon one will set you back around $7

[@mrpersianality6363]

If you want really good cheap food, try the Jamaican places

[@jenniferchen3281]

Actually, you can get it for way cheaper in NYC, which of course is super abundant with deli's, pizzeria's, bagel shops, cafe's, etc. I've lived in the city my whole life and I would never pay that much for it. The one's I've been at charge no more than $5 for a bagel sandwich, heck, $7 at max. For example, that $31 pizza? Pizza pies cost $8 by my place in NYC. All these places are tourist traps in high-tourism locations and they know that most tourist's don't know better, so they charge more.

[@randyneil6161]

another really nice food video 👍

[@jjs9672]

I hate how food vloggers just stare into your soul when they're eating. oh god

[@edithbech4431]

[@tambekaranand81]

The way he leans down after taking a bite and those expressions 😂😂😂

[@f00zh]

Tacos over salmon bagel, pizza, and pastrami sandwich all day long

[@berylrosenberg704]

In NYC, the worker response after "Thank You" is most often "No Problem". When one leaves NYC and maybe is in the South or Mid-West, the response is a genuine "You're Welcome". I'm sure it's just culturally ingrained in NYC but it makes a difference. We know it's "not a problem", but would rather feel welcome! Thank you!

[@aziangurl723]

No problem means I didn't mind going out of my way to do this for you. You're welcome means I did something for you I didn't have to, and you should be glad I did. One is more "polite" while the other is genuinely nice. I'll take a no problem over a you're welcome any day of the week.

Russ and Daughters is truly a must go-to in NYC. Not cheap, but so classic, so great, and worth it sitting at the basketball court. Some of those people have worked there for decades. Best New York bagels with fish ever, made with great care. My first stop every time - that is my neighbourhood. Miss it!!! I also get the white fish spread to go, with a couple more bagels. That is so addictive. Oh man, I miss NYC so much. The Jewish knish spot just North a couple blocks with the original yogurt drink cultivated for years - you must get that. Also the Turkish kebab wrap late at night after the music sitting on a stoop. Love.

I'm from Phx, AZ myself and this vlog makes me crave good Mexican food. I live in Berlin, Germany now and luckily found a place which makes SF Mission style burritos since the owner is from SF. Good Mexican restaurants are hard to come by here in Berlin. But I miss good old fashion street tacos. Thanks for posting.

It's too bad there are no salmons in the rivers around NYC to catch. Down on the LES where he was there is a bagel shop he could have got a dozen bagels for less than what he paid then make his own salmon sandwiches with his catch. An maybe pick an onion up on that old elevated train tracks that now grows flowers and maybe vegetables. Going cheap in NYC!
