Mike Chen would tell him to avoid Xi'an Famous and go to stall 28 in the New World Mall food court. The only time I go to Xi'an is when I'm in East Village...so many other places in Flushing!

Each year I would take my Culinary Arts students to NYC and when in China Town we would eat at Xi'an along with other places... one of the things I miss about teaching...

[@KingJames1981]

I think the reason we love your videos Mark, is because I can taste the food just by watching your reaction! Bravo!

[@Spoonfulofinsight]

These noodles are the best. They are about as al dente as noodles can get. The chewiness of the noodles is so good with the sauce.

Hi! I'm a super huge fan. You are all amazing. I just wanted to say thank you for the recommendation for the spicy lamb noodles. Unfortunately the one you went to is temporarily closed. I ended up going to the one in Chinatown & it was just so amazing, tasty & such a delicious meal. Bless you all.

It's kind of pleasing to see his head toopling to right side with eyes gently closed when he is eating something wonderful.

[@TheAmal89]

True story: I use to watch videos while I eat...Gradually I had digestion problem because I am not salivating enough..then I had this path breaking idea..to watch cuisine videos while I eat...Now I have no problem with digestion...Also I reduced watching videos while eating and just focusing on the food..Mark's videos will give me the appetite any time of the day..Thanks a lot Mark

[@karenfrazer2284]

Oh, Mark. that lamb looked so yummy! I'm jealous, but most of all I like seeing you and Ying on your travels. Your little man, Micah, is very blessed to have you two for parents. What a life he will have. :)

[@withramya]

Mark's reaction- put food in mouth, eyes pop out, smile appears, tile to the side, nod head and say "its awesome" :D Its addicting to watch.

[@Zerpentsa6598]

I like to see the way he swoons when the food hits the spot. I like his videos because he usually tells you the name of the place, where it is, and the prices. Many food vides don't and you wonder where they have been and if the place is expensive. They are a waste of cyberspace and time. But MW rocks! His commentaries are informative and often they give you a sense of the ambience of the place, and you can almost smell and taste the food he's eating. He really makes you want to be there!

[@samiratahtawi2867]

I can watch you eat all day long. Thank you for the pleasure.

[@surfergirlbabe10]

The diversity of NYC and the metro area is striking. You can try so many different cuisines there.

[@jeffward1106]

2nd place, pork dumplings for $5 was a steal! Looked great covered in the hot chili oil.

[@bidhrohi12]

Best place to eat in NYC, that area. Cheap, and addictively good stuff.

[@aj.vky90]

It's the energy and the passion for food and travel that makes your videos just oozing of love and positivity...inspired me to travel...travel for food

[@elenavanbc]

I found your channel during my daily search for images of multicultural food which I MISS SO MUCH - I'm an Argentinian born, Canadian Citizen who lived in wonderful Vancouver for almost 40 years. I'm currently in my native country for an extremely lengthy stay due to life circumstances, and hoping to return to Vancouver one day, and eat the wonderful food you can find in that city. In the meantime, your food tours, bring all that back to the senses, even when in the Patagonian sun-parched desert there's no way you could find the kind of noodles or spices and everything you show.... but I can almost taste what you eat - it's so joyful to watch you eating, it's as if we are sharing the flavours!! Bless you and your family, thank you so much!!!

[@executivewoman678]

I love that he is ALWAYS SMILING!

[@hamburglar83]

This place was one of my favorite places when I was in New York. Actually launched my love again in Chinese food and it’s many variations

[@efanferdiantowibowo9610]

I think you should add score to every food you eat

[@alghan9382]

Efan Ferdianto Wibowo 👆👆

[@fithablink]

I agree! Every food is "insanely/unbelievably/ridiculously/amazingly/extremely/incredibly good/amazing" I need a numbered scale 😂

[@aryaaditya2124]

agreee

[@MarkWiens]

Efan Ferdianto Wibowo The reason I don't give a rating is because food is so subjective and personal. For instance I could give a 9/10 for these lamb noodles because I love lamb and spicy food, but then a really good cinnamon roll I might give a 2/10 because I personally don't like sweets, although that might be the best cinnamon roll in the world. So then I don't want others who eat the same thing as I do to disagree with my rating - by being disappointed with the food OR thinking I didn't give it a high enough rating. So therefore I have chosen to explain the food for what it is and express my enjoyment without a number value. Sorry to fully explain, these are just my thoughts!

[@efanferdiantowibowo9610]

I know, but sometimes subjectivity is good

[@drtybrdy75]

Oh God!!!! How I love and miss Xi’an famous foods. The spicy cumin lamb burger is a must as well. ❤❤❤

[@peter7811]

I wanna be in NY again and taste these foods before I die...

[@dannykwee1263]

I like the way Mark is rating the food by the ammount of head tilt after a bite. 90 degrees tilt is 10/10

if only mike was still New York, maybe Mark and Mike could do collaboration videos

I really like Mark's personality. Despite being in NYC, and filming as he was walking, he did not mention anything about the guys that would hassle you to buy their mixtapes in times square and probably how dank it smelled in some areas in central park. I respect you for showing only the good parts of all areas you visit. Keep doing what you do!!!

[@mooncake5016]

Ying was like Mark's guardian angel to get on right train directions. I heard about Golden mall in NY. Mark again took to much better level presenting the foods over there. Specially, he spotted the warning msg. That would help tourists big time ahead. Mark proved how much he like the beef noodle when 2 foam plates got nothing left. I think Flushing should be called "dumpling" town. haha. Many Mark's videos last more than 20 mins. So when I got time, I would watch it like episodes. Big THANKS to Mark and Ying.
