We didn’t get to go to the noodle place or the dessert place but that’s ok. Definitely mind blown about the savory salty tofu with fried dough. First time having it and was super delicious!

One of those restaurants you went to (across from Penang) used to be a barber shop I got my haircut at as a kid. I think the Philly food scene overall is underestimated because of NYC, and maybe even DC to the south but we have our share of nice places and a ton of feel good food (Italian hoagies, roast pork sandwiches, cheesesteaks, just about any kind of ethnic food). Go to South Philly for Vietnamese stuff, get bun bo hue. Go to Lil Nick's (also in S. Philly) deli for chicken cutlet sandwiches.

Mikey! If you read this...check out Square One Cafe (for their chipotle wrap) and Cafe Diem (for their Bun Bo Hue) whenever you come back to Philly. They are among the best-hidden gems in Philly.

Now I know where to go next time I’m downtown and hungry! From Northeast Philly and always looking for new places to try in Chinatown and this just became my wishlist. Also, as a Philadelphian, we don’t let you leave until your full so thanks for enjoying 😁

I practically go to Philly Chinatown every week and I can’t believe I’m still learning about some new places there!
@netherfield2000 3 жыл бұрын
Yay! Born and bred in Philly. You got the Reading Terminal Market right next to Chinatown, so it's best of both worlds. You could have gone there an gotten a table to eat your food for free.

Memories! So when I was in high school (around 2007 or 2008) I was grade in 11 & we took a trip to historic Philadelphia with plans on making our way to Chinatown. It was a very amazing experience. We saw so many different things & became pretty good friends. We had lunch in the park & before we did that we took a homeless man for a nice lunch. We went home with no food, we gave whatever we had left to those with nothing. We did spend a good amount of time in Chinatown. We all tried a little bit of everything😊we didn’t get home till it was dark out! Awesome trip! Couldn’t tell you if we went to the places you did, I honestly can’t recall it’s been so long❤️

Your VLogs always makes me hungry and also smile. 😋 When this pandamanic is over will make a point to get to Philly’s Chinatown to hit these spots. Yummy!
