I grew up in St Louis and I have been waiting for this video. If you left without trying our BEST ASSET, your assessment of our city would have been in question. It wouldn't have been a fair shot. The truth is this is the only food we claim to be great in. Our fried rice is unmatched! Salute for doing a great job. 🙏🏿
With St Louis rice you suppose to mixed the sweet and sour sauce, red pepper and the if needed the soy sauce and you will get that ultimate BOW BOW BOW!!
Ma man went to Bing Lau! That’s just a couple of blocks south of the Water Tower - that’s a “Get your food and bounce!” neighborhood! Well worth it too
Growing up in E. St. Louis, I lived in an area called Park Side. We would walk to the Rice House, Kam Wah, a pork st paul with cheese, order of chicken wings, and a black cherry vess was my go-to meal.
My family runs several Asian restaurants. Dark fried rice ain’t really traditional to Chinese style as it’s supposed to be a light side dish that compliments the main course. They likely adapted this for their area to accommodate customers who eat fried rice as a main course. This is more of a Thai style Fried Rice that uses dark mushroom soy sauces to give it that brown color while also adding an umami kick from fermented soybeans. From the looks of it, they prep this dark fried rice in bulk then stir fry the ingredients first before adding it in (Notice the vegetables and meat ain’t dark).
@@NeonKue Great point and even better insight into why it's darker in color, at some places damn near black in color🤢. In classic St. Louis style, they're doctoring something to make it better when the overall product still ends up being mediocre cause it's still not authentic. Reminds me of 20 years ago, give or take, when you'd get a bag of greenery with the smell of oranges. To find out people were using orange peels on regular brick bud to make it appear fluffier like some kind bud. The appearance enhancement was on point. After a few puffs.... the reality of being played is more on your mind than the effects of the green😡
@@blaquestarr007 I mean, fact of the matter is most of these “Rice shops” and American Chinese food aint authentic any way. It’s like how Taco Bell ain’t authentic Mexican food. It’s catered to meet the tastebuds of Westerners who want fried foods loaded with salt and sugar mixed together. It’s obviously gonna be different from region to region based on the locals. If you ever get a chance to try authentic Chinese food, it’s actually a variety of light and balanced dishes separated to complement the entire meal as a whole. You won’t find dark fried rice at their family meals unless they ain’t traditional lol Luckily I can also understand your analogy of greenery as well lol As a former Greenery dealer, we definitely did that shit that make reggies fluffier and add weight for profit. Never judge a book by its cover, it’s all just flash and bang hustle for good first impressions. The greenery I was pushing back then was purple haze (almost moldy black looking) that would put the heaviest smoker on their ass 🤣
As a huge supporter of your channel and a St. Louis native, I thank you so much for doing this video. It was so enjoyable to watch and I cannot wait to see the results. Definitely rooting for STL BING LOU!!!!
I told y’all about 7 videos ago that that’s what St. Louis was know for 🗣️CHINESE FOOD (the best in the country as a matter of fact) and people wanted to argue like bro I use to live there, St. Louis isn’t known for BBQ despite what the food network shows told you, that KC……..I’m glad chime finally took my advice, A-1WOK was my personal favorite but I can vouch for yet bun too they solid……all you was missing is the cream soda Vess and you would have been official……salute tho
Facts i grew up by East saint louis and from what i remember it was never really known for bbq restaurant's its always been the Chinese food that damn imos and a bit of soul food
One thing I know being from St. Louis, if anything don’t hit, the fried rice and St Paul gone pop!!! And the Vess. And gotta keep ya head on a swivel also riding to the Chop Suey’s hrrrrrrrr! Good looking Mr ChimeTime! 👍🏾
Thanks for giving STL another try...You nailed this review! When I moved to DC 35 years ago, I craved Good STL Hood Chinese food, good fried rice, Duck and noodles (still can't find any decent in DC) St.Pauls are the best...egg fu yung on white bread, mayo, pickles lettuce and onion, with extra bean sprouts. ONE spot in DC that makes them, AND good fried rice! Twin Dragon....just Like home!!! STL put Crab rangoon on erry body's fav list. DC needs St.Pauls and Duck broth with onions and noodles...thick slices of 5 spice fatty yummy duck.❤ no Vess but we have Rock Creek here.
Yes my order from the Chinaman is Beef fried rice with a side of egg foo Ying gravy and extra been sprouts. Damn I'm going to have take a drive to the Lou for one rice😂
I'm born and raised in stl I made of post a few weeks ago that he was going to the wrong areas ppl sent him😊 to the safe areas thats cool r what not but u have to go to the hoods for the best food especially south city
@@Winnyfruits a minute ago. i moved out of state and when i came back i was asking my niece to take me and she told me what happened. said it was a robbery gone bad
I am so glad u help put East St. Louis fried rice and St. Pauls on the map. I literally grew up in East St. Louis and their fried rice and St. Pauls absolute hit. Try the bbq Snout in East. St. Louis.
Literally can’t get fried rice and a St. Paul from nowhere in the US over ESTL/STL 🔥🔥🔥 the peach Vess slap every time - Asian Gourmet downtown STL is also top tier if you want something on the safer side - but TYPICALLY, the worse it look outside/inside the better it is 😅
@@kevinmckay2483Chicago yes 🙌🏾 being that it’s Midwest, so it makes sense. New York tho 🤔 I’d have to strongly disagree…certainly not when it comes to fried rice
There are a lot of bbq places that have good rib tips, snoots, pork steaks, chicken and hot links. I don't buy rubs from them. Pappy's and Bogart's ribs are good to me. Never tried Stellar Hog or Salt N Smoke. Sugar Fire's ribs are only OK to me.
Yes, but you need to try the sandwich. Doesn't need gravy. We have something else called a "Happy Box," has fried rice, egg foo young patty and the gravy. Good stuff!! 😊
We definitely don’t have better BBQ than the cities/states known for it but our Chinese food is top tier. I hear San Francisco apparently has good Chinese food too along with NY.
@@ThatsWhatSheSaid6227 I'm from NY. The Chinese food is hit or miss out here depending on the area. If you want authentic Chinese food in NY, you have to go into the Chinatowns throughout the 5 Boroughs (the Chinatown food in Flushing, Queens is my favorite). In the hood it is ether hit or miss, but one thing is different, in the hood Chinese Restaurants do not put peas, carrots & eggs in the fried rice, but in some other neighborhoods across the boroughs Chinese Restaurants do.
@@amazing50000 Honestly y'all always say you gotta go get the good "traditional" Chinese food and stuff but lemme tell you here that some provincial cuisine's traditional food is gonna send y'all running away. My dad's side eat Jiangsu cuisine which is best known for sweet and mildly salty and I don't mess with it the taste just irks my stomach. My mom's side eats Shaanxi cuisine which is more spicy soury and a lotta flour products I def mess with that but for a western taste profile I could bet y'all wouldn't like it. Most of them are just extremely average such as shandong cuisine as well as Guangdong cuisine. Just my opinion though.

Thank you for posting this video. Just a little history, Bing Lau's Chop Suey was probably the first Chop Suey's opened in the late 60's. If you ate at Bing Lau's , you sampled a little piece of history. I knew Bing Lau and moved out of St Louis back in 78. I was surprised to see the restaurant was still operating after all these years. Thank you for the Chop Suey tour. It brings back a lot of memories.
Bro CT, when ya went to "Sun's" you missed yo Blessing, because Ya didn't get the "Fried-GIZZARDS" and if You didn't eat a "STL - TRIPE-Sandwhich", You Have-NOT Experienced "Da-REAL-STL"🤩!!!
Because a while back people who would be one of the first to comment would get recognized by the creator. Younger generations saw this and have just been copying it ever since, even after creators stopped responding
Bing Lau is great. Went there instead of Popeyes down the street because some guy bought all the chicken sandwiches and was scalping them and somebody got mad and stabbed the dude. General Tso hit hard. Rice was great.
This made me want to drive 30 mins over to Ferguson and stand in that line at Ferguson Chop Suey to get some fried rice and a chicken St Paul with cheese. 😩
You missed a couple of the black owned spots. Gotta try them next time! So glad you came through. People outside of St Louis never understood what our fried rice was like until they tried it. The first time I went outside of the state and ordered fried rice I was perplexed cause the rice was light skinned with peas and carrots 😂 I never knew it was different until I left home.
He is saying what other people call it here. He isn't calling it that. As many Chinese restaurants that are here, they know what people call it and don't have an issue. 😂
@@melanieb-e8570we don't call it an omelet. Never heard anyone call egg foo young an omelet. However, it is the patty made into a sandwich, best with mayo, pickle and salt and pepper. Some places add cheese, some add lettuce and tomato.
Chime, it's probably Gravy Master. A 1/2 cap or a full cap will definitely brown the rice. A little goes a long way with the browning. Chicagoans love Egg Fu Young with their fried rice.
Kids at school used to ask me what’s the best thing about being from St Louis/ESTL. I always used to tell em the rice houses are fire. Walk and get a vess soda, some rice and chips and go home and chill
Fried rice experience here for me is the nostalgia of calling everybody when I was putting in an order, especially if you were kickin it with family on a Friday or Saturday night. Who all want some rice? 😂 and families are loyal to a particular one or two locations. Hella guilty of if those options were closed, I’d wait til they opened bc I didn’t want to go anywhere else. lol. Didn’t wnna risk a place I wasn’t familiar with not being good and me being salty lol! Rice order be messed up and you be mad af. lol.
Bruh, risking your life on da north side at bing lau (we call it bing lou) you a real one. Earned yo self a like and a subscribe. Also anyone visiting St. Louis the more unsafe you feel, the better the Chinese food trust me.
I thank you for doing this video. You're correct when you said, "We don't like peas and carrots in our rice."😂 Also, the darker the rice 🍚 the better. ❤❤❤STL have more Chinamen with seasoned and flavorful rice in the city, U-City and other places I've heard about. Getting a Vess with your rice is a must, especially fruit punch, pineapple, peach, grape, and black cherry, which is my top flavors. ❤❤😊😊 Thank you for letting us know about the different places with great fried rice in STL as well as across the river in East St. Louis.

They use something called ‘browning sauce’ to make the rice dark… the St.Paul sandwich is actually an Egg Foo Young patty on bread 🍞
Was just about to say the same. Guess it is a regional thing to call it St. Paul. The Dmv recognizes this as egg foo young
I thought so, in Detroit
We call it a egg foo young, and it comes with rice and gravy
@@glammagurl572yea it’s like that in Texas too and it go crazy lol 😂
It's called egg foo young in St.Louis as well,it's a St.Paul in sandwich form

A "Call in for your safety" sign at the front door is wild af. That ish ain't normal.

This the video I've been waiting on bruh, you CAN NOT come here without going to the Chinamen and getting a Vess Soda!!💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
#SoSaintLouis👌🏾
Thanks for visiting us 💯
This made me want to drive 30 mins over to Ferguson and stand in that line at Ferguson Chop Suey to get some fried rice and a chicken St Paul with cheese. 😩
We got good ones on the Southside and they're just as unsafe too!
the your mom joke when he was talking about the bread caught me off guard lmao
4:10 Ramdom liquor bottle on floor in corner, bet money thier are no stray cats in this neighborhood 😂😂😂
Bullshyt…I work around the corner and can confirm they not cooking the cats lbvs
They’re definitely eating SPCA meat in those spots.
Keyboard gangsta
Vess and Mistic best drinks in STL hands down ‼️💯💯💯
STL the queen of Chinese food 😂.
You mean KING my dude.
Every Chinese restaurant I have been in with no AC and the door open the food has been good.
Sexxy Red ❤ hype must be real, you been in St Louis for bout a month my guy 😂
Love your vids
You missed a couple of the black owned spots. Gotta try them next time! So glad you came through. People outside of St Louis never understood what our fried rice was like until they tried it. The first time I went outside of the state and ordered fried rice I was perplexed cause the rice was light skinned with peas and carrots 😂 I never knew it was different until I left home.
Just ito inform you bro Asian people think Chinaman is a racist slur
He is saying what other people call it here. He isn't calling it that.
As many Chinese restaurants that are here, they know what people call it and don't have an issue. 😂
It's ChinaMEIN, NOT Chinamen
🙄 🤦🏽♀️
Sun restaurant 15 years ago used to be best fried rice...and pot stickers around.....moved away....miss it
Bing Lau smack my guy every time
The thing about it is Bing Lou has been around for decades! I was 11years old going here and I'm in my 60s and it's still going strong.
And still in the same location.
Vess peach is my favorite but so many flavors black cherry good too Vess. Try Ski and Excel bottling also.
#STL Yassssssssss this hood rice no peas and carrots EVER
Next time add Gravy to the Rice! 🧑🍳
Add the egg foo young patty too and make it a "Happy Box"
That patty look just like egg foo young without gravy.
Exactly. Chinese restaurants in St. Louis originally invented this for Catholics who didn't eat meat on Fridays.
Duh, that's what a St.Paul is an omelette. Don't comment without fact checking. Save yourself some time.
@@byronyoung1763 OK, if that's what it is, then what's wrong with what I said? Eat it with gravy, in a sandwich.
@@melanieb-e8570we don't call it an omelet. Never heard anyone call egg foo young an omelet. However, it is the patty made into a sandwich, best with mayo, pickle and salt and pepper. Some places add cheese, some add lettuce and tomato.
That chicken fried rice sure is making me hungry...can taste it in my mouth! As they "looking good, looking good"!!! Yummy 😊
Never heard of ham in fried rice
Yep, I prefer the roasted pork though.
That's my order! A whole order of ham fried rice.
Chime, it's probably Gravy Master. A 1/2 cap or a full cap will definitely brown the rice. A little goes a long way with the browning. Chicagoans love Egg Fu Young with their fried rice.
Kids at school used to ask me what’s the best thing about being from St Louis/ESTL. I always used to tell em the rice houses are fire. Walk and get a vess soda, some rice and chips and go home and chill
Fried rice experience here for me is the nostalgia of calling everybody when I was putting in an order, especially if you were kickin it with family on a Friday or Saturday night. Who all want some rice? 😂 and families are loyal to a particular one or two locations. Hella guilty of if those options were closed, I’d wait til they opened bc I didn’t want to go anywhere else. lol. Didn’t wnna risk a place I wasn’t familiar with not being good and me being salty lol! Rice order be messed up and you be mad af. lol.
FRIED RICE IN ST. LOUIS IS 🔥 😋😋 PERIODT 💯
Wana try the peach. Already know the fruit punch is bussin
Bro shoulda got that black cherry vess with the chino it hit different
Facts
Bruh, risking your life on da north side at bing lau (we call it bing lou) you a real one. Earned yo self a like and a subscribe. Also anyone visiting St. Louis the more unsafe you feel, the better the Chinese food trust me.
Is vess soda a regional thing? I've never seen it here in Houston
I believe so
I thank you for doing this video. You're correct when you said, "We don't like peas and carrots in our rice."😂 Also, the darker the rice 🍚 the better. ❤❤❤STL have more Chinamen with seasoned and flavorful rice in the city, U-City and other places I've heard about. Getting a Vess with your rice is a must, especially fruit punch, pineapple, peach, grape, and black cherry, which is my top flavors. ❤❤😊😊 Thank you for letting us know about the different places with great fried rice in STL as well as across the river in East St. Louis.
John’s China is right across from kings!!!!! Should of went there
