Now I have to plan a trip there with my husband to eat and do some shopping 😊

Love this place, i try something new everytime i go. Very sweet staff, lots of good food, cool stores and new things every time you go. Really happy they built the mall.

def going to check it out next time in the cites

I have been there many times and have eaten at every restaurant except the hot pot place. I think they are all ok, maybe the Vietnamese place on the first floor and Legendary Spice on the second floor are the only places worth revisiting. Tips for anyone thinking of visiting, do not come on the weekend. It is packed and you will find it hard to find a parking space.

I ate at Hometaste last night. They have a fried rice dish with BBQ pork and smoked eel that's a really delicious combination I've never seen before anywhere else. Next time I need to try those crepes you got.

I appreciate that it’s in the suburbs. I don’t want to drive farther away to Mpls or St. Paul. Sorry but I don’t. It’s a good location for folks with busy lives and who don’t want to drive to downtown. Also, everyone I know that complains that the food isn’t as good as Asian food in the city; I’ve had plenty of meh Asian food in the city.

Lol I’m from MN too and I freaking love this place, lots of good food and snack options. I love the pastries that have anko(red bean paste) filling in them…and I’m not one that really enjoys beans!

Love your honesty. Great work!

I absolutely love the changes that you have made keep up the good work and post often please you have made this channel awesome k❤

There is a place off Phalen and Johnson parkway called _Hmong Villiage._ The food is cheap and delicious. Though you might run across language barriers.

Definitely a nice spot. They just need to add more parking.

I am Asian and been in this mall probably like 5x since it opened. I love the grocery area for snacks, mochi doughnuts, Korean shaved ice dessert and corn dogs. Other than that I am not impressed with the price tags and taste of the restaurants, and food court area. You can find a better Asian food spot in the twin cities for a more reasonable price, tasty and more authentic but Asia mall is still something to try for some.

From MN just found u today....so happy KZfaq's algorithm finally showed your channel. Two cosas: Dim sum can be so different! Go back and try more and please and pleeeease vlog the mochi donut shop & K BBQ too. Ty for showing MN! Doing a dueling Juicy Lucy vlog too. Ok I'm done

I went there shortly after it opened and was not too impressed. There was the grocery and only a couple of food places (although one of them had a robot server that had the face of a cat and that was cool). I thought the grocery area had a lot of wasted space. I much prefer United Noodles in Minneapolis. Good variety and things are easier to find.

That food looks delicious and that would definitely be an experience to see all the unique products, all though I would steer clear of the live tanks since I'm a weanie and would want to save them all. lol Great video.

Dave... you're a naughty naughty boy! 😂❤😂

yummy food

It's fun to see our local food scene reviewed. The Twin Cities is still far from sophisticated when looking at Asian food options. Dan, I wonder if you could not refer to these foods as "exotic?" This might seem trivial to some people, but some of the people who run those businesses in that mall have actually lived in MN for decades or they are 3rd generation immigrants running it. Just as there might be 3rd generation German or Irish immigrants around, but we don't call their cuisine exotic. Saying this is exotic fetishizes, the cultures, inadvertently I'm sure. It makes me and other Asian Americans cringe to be viewed as forever foreign in our own country. Farther below in the comments there was also a hurtful comment from someone who alluded to Asian people eating cats and dogs. I could either cry or throw fists to hear that.

I live a few miles away in Chanhassen. I have been passed the mall many times and every time the parking lot looks packed.

I just started watching this channel a couple weeks ago, but have been a long time subscriber to your reptile channel. I dig the food content too.

Your humor mid video is really funny!

I wish we had an asian mall like that! I'm obsessed with asian food 😁

This place definitely sounds like it's "super" & "amazing" lol!!!

When did you go? It's always packed when we are over there.

I'm getting hungry watching you eat mate. You did good with the crepes by the way. Usually we get the place to cut the crepes in half and it's a gamble whether we can get it into our bowls without the thing slipping straight off the chopsticks and splashing us with soy sauce 😅😂. And I'm Asian! 😂

whaaaaa?!!!! when are you taking me on a newbie food tour on Minneapolis? LOL

That robot is crazy!!! I've never seen anything like that in a restaurant before!! Shame the food was a let down but the experience seemed intriguing! Lots of love from Wales, UK! If your ever in cardiff UK I recommend checking out "The Alchemist" delicious food amazing booze presentations and the theme is an old world Alchemist! Even has a little taxidermist and old alcane medicine display ^_^ xxx

Dim Sum place is mostly frozen, don't touch it.

That looks AMAZING! Yikes bummer... :( #EatthePlanet #RattleOn

Neat market. You should do another vid here.

I'm sticking with the Oreos

But did she dance? JK! What a great meal experience! And such beautiful presentation!

❤❤❤ eat it all😂🌏❤❤❤ dober tek( good apetite)

NATTO?

I was waiting for the robot to say "Exterminate!"

Are you going to venture over to the Hmong and Somali markets in the Twin Cities as well?

I appreciate this dude for making this video, but most of the Asian foods here don't taste anything like you'd find outside of MN. The foods were clearly catered to the western palette, but it's the Midwest, so it's understandable. You can find more authentic Asian foods in bigger cities like NYC, Chicago, LA, San Francisco, and Vegas.

I'm from Eden Prairie too and love Asian Food. The grocery dept is ok. You can get a great deal on bok choy and mint...they have lots of noodles. The checkout ladies are always grumpy and seem to know next to nothing about customer service. Whenever Ive gone there is no one around to help you find things (this IS MN and most people dont know Chinese or Korean, etc)The mall itself is far from spotless...it doesn't compare to the Eden Prairie Mall, thats for sure. Im really sorry to have to say this, but I wasn't impressed. By giving this comment I only hope they'll make some changes and take this golden opportunity to fix it!

Soy sauce definitely does the trick lol. Its not a hit if you have to drown you duck dish in soy sauce. I would probably give it a try.

Local Minnesotan here. Want to know your top 3 places with THE BEST FOOD in the state. South Metro located

I've driven by a few times. You've convinced me to stop in and bring friends and family through wherever I've got visitors.

00:56 🤣

Dang sorry the dim sum wasn't great ! LOL your comments about the stuff omg.

You can find better restaurants outside of Eden prairie in twin cities . Those ones in Asia mall mostly are below average standard.

Yep……..nope.

That's so awesome that you have something like that a few miles from where you live. But I would not be okay with eating cats, dogs and some of the crazy things they eat. Lol but they do have some delicious chicken teriyaki and orange chicken. I hope you have an awesome Sunday
