What's good #GustoGang, in this food tour we are support 9 LOCAL restaurants in Chinatown Chicago! What is your favorite restaurant in this neighborhood?
I’m moving to Chicago from Louisiana in a few months and watching your videos have not only been helpful, but also making me feel like I’ve made the right the decision.
My wife, 2 kids (6&5yr old) and sister-in-law toured china town yesterday and tried 4 of your recommendations: Bfast: Chiu Quon Lunch: QXY Snack: Elitea Dinner: MCCB All 4 were INCREDIBLE!!! Pork Bun and moon cake were such unique bfast treats! QXY truffle-beef and lamb-coriander dumplings were so delicate and yummy! My kids loved the fruit smoothies from Elitea and wife said her grapefruit green tea was the best tea concoctions she's ever had. Finishing with MCCB was outrageous. Surprisingly super affordable spot, and we loved the pig oil green onion noodles, and spicy dry chilli chicken! Honestly the best chinese take out I've ever had. We can't THANK YOU enough. Can't wait to try more of your chicago food recommendations!
Wow! I lived in Chicago for 15+ years and I have not been to any one of the restaurants you went to! I’m totally missing out! I didn’t even know that there’s an underground food court! We are totally going to check out all of those places! Thanks for making this video!
My family and I are getting ready to visit Chicago for the first time and your videos are going to make our trip so much better. Can't thank you enough for the amazing content!
You will make a difference perspective toward Asian people during pandemic time because of your support. You did a great job for all the details about Asian food. Thank you.
You gotta do an episode featuring Bridgeport restaurants too. Ricobene’s famous breaded steak sandwich was voted best sandwich in the world. Also, Fabulous Freddies is great too!
I also went to Chinatown. It was amazing! I had some really good bubble tea from Tbaar and also had delicious rolled up ice cream. If you've never been to Chinatown I highly recommend it!
I actually made it out to Chinatown when I visited but I missed so much!!!!! I’ll definitely know where to go when I move there at the end of the year! Come to think of it I are ate Qing Xiang Yuan and loved it so much!!
I grew up in Chicago and we have been going to Chinatown since 1960. You did go to any of the old restaurants we alway go to off 22nd street. Everything was from that new section across Cermak.
You should go to Boonies at the revival food hall downtown for some really good Filipino food. The couple that open it up are really sweet and loving people that are very close to the Filipino community.
I would have never thought about Chinese bakeries. The ham and egg bun and barbecue bun looked really good. You had some really good choices. That mushroom salad looked so good! I love mushrooms. You had some really good, nontraditional choices. I'll have to check Chinatown out.
You should go and have some hot pot! That's always my favorite thing to eat in any China Town. I've heard Happy Lamb Hot Pot in Chicago is the best out there.
6:26 the chopsticks in the rice 😩 hahha i kid im whatever bout that. but some people would be super anal hella good video. love how you bring scenes back to the hotel and got such a high quality camera with food all zoomed in
Love MCCB. Was just there with my wife a couple of days ago. Wanted to take some friends from out of town there this week, but they are closed on Tuesdays. Bummer. That dried chili chicken is soooo good, but hotter than you can imagine if you've not had it before.
Great video. Been to Chinatown countless times and tried many restaurants, but didn't know about the underground food court. I need to find out how to get in there! Also, addresses on the screen would be really helpful. Thanks!
thank you for the china town tour. looks yummy ...question where is the underground when did this open ? is it really underground? I know atlanta ga has underground shopping mall ..never recall this when I was living there of course that was before you were born. what is weather like mid november between nov 15-20th going there ..do I need winter coat or just light jacket ? I can't remember? staying by where i grew up in hotel down by river and ohio street ...love your tours. thanks ..you both are adorable. she's Filipina also?
Incredible video and thank you for sharing. Personally I would like to try them all. When Luis showed the ham and egg bao I started drooling as I had my first in Mexicali, Mexico's Chinatown area back in the late 1980's😋😋😋😋 ! While virtually everything looked divine the lovely young lady showing off the Strawberry Bao stole my heart. Strawberries should have their own food group ! 😋😍🤩😋
My family and I went to Mayflower. Our waiter was super rude to us. It was our first time ever eating in Chinatown. I might have to give them a second try and go to these restaurants
I LOVE QXY. We have traveled to Chinatown from Indiana monthly, just to eat ans enjoy the awesome culture. We been having withdrawals since Covid. Is qxy open for dining in again?
You should've done dis mid july on a sunday is when the chinatown fair is but it was august this yr bc of covid last yr. i dont remember food court underground tht pretty last time i went there as a kid. Probs cause the entrance isn't that inviting also which is why most ppl dont go in there
My grandparents lived in Chinatown before and while it was transitioning so I was there a lot growing up. What happened to Won Kow? Any background on it?
All the food looks amazing! Me and my friends were thinking about going this weekend and try something new. Kinda weird question but do they speak English in all these places?
It's an extremely walkable neighborhood and a quick train ride from the Loop. You can also walk there from the South Loop. It's very much part of the urban core of Chicago 😎
If you're Downtown? You can hop an El(red line) and get to Chinatown in 10 minutes. It's not that far from Downtown & very accessible. The Food? Num-num😋
@@shoppingangelc6035 its the silver/grey building infront of daebak. I think it says theres a PC cafe/foodcourt on the front. But you go in the building and theres stairs leading down to the food courg
You did this in one of your previous videos, but a suggestion to engage your viewers more and encourage them to continue watching until the end would be to ask a trivia question related to the topic of your video at the very beginning and then tell the viewers to watch until the end to figure out the answer. Would be great to incorporate into each video moving forward.

Great video! Love you for giving much needed love to our Asian brothers and sisters. Food looks on point! Thank you as always! ❤️
Thanks Tisha 💯😎
Omg that dried chili chicken looks amazing!!
It's one of our favorite dishes to order, this batch was a tad spicier but oh so delicious 🌶️🥵😂
Just got here to Chicago first time ever for my wife and I. We may move here for my job. Up for an in person foodie day this weekend?!
Thanks Luis. I'm going to be in Chicago this weekend, staying in Chinatown. Great suggestions, can't wait to try
It looked like torture having to go all those places! Seriously, I'm so glad you remember to point out the vegan/vegetarian options when they exist!
Lol we did it over three days so it was pretty manageable. We'll be highligthing some more vegan restaurants very soon 😄
Wow!!! Definitely need to hit up Chinatown!!! Food looked amazing....Great video 👍🏼
For sure bro! The food was good and I'm glad we got to try some new foods!
Visiting Chicago in a couple weeks and super excited to visit Chinatown.
I love the underground food court!! Locals call it “the basement” LOL
Haha nice, it's a fun spot with some amazing options!!
I also went to Chinatown. It was amazing! I had some really good bubble tea from Tbaar and also had delicious rolled up ice cream. If you've never been to Chinatown I highly recommend it!
Definitely heading to Qing Xiang Yuan after watching this 🤙🏻
I actually made it out to Chinatown when I visited but I missed so much!!!!! I’ll definitely know where to go when I move there at the end of the year! Come to think of it I are ate Qing Xiang Yuan and loved it so much!!
True! Always more to discover in the neighborhood 😁
Thanks for showing me Chinatown, and supporting the businesses.
I loooove this area and great food “pick ups”
Yes it's one of my favorite neighborhoods, do you have a favorite restaurant that we didn't get to this time?
I grew up in Chicago and we have been going to Chinatown since 1960. You did go to any of the old restaurants we alway go to off 22nd street. Everything was from that new section across Cermak.
Love love love Chicago Chinatown! Thanks for sharing! Btw Tous Le Jour bakery hands down my fave 😊😊
Thanks for showing some love for Chinatown. You made some really good choices brah.
No doubt bro, it's one of my favorite neighborhoods in the city!
My wife and I love to chow down in Chinatown. We'll definitely check out some of these places next time.
Sweet!
Loved this video! I'm going to check out chinatown next weekend 😋👏
Thanks Amanda! Sweet, hope you have a great time out there!!
my whole life in Chicago and had no idea about these places or even an underground food court!
You should go to Boonies at the revival food hall downtown for some really good Filipino food. The couple that open it up are really sweet and loving people that are very close to the Filipino community.
Yeah, those stuffed buns are fiya...🔥💯✔️
I would have never thought about Chinese bakeries. The ham and egg bun and barbecue bun looked really good. You had some really good choices. That mushroom salad looked so good! I love mushrooms. You had some really good, nontraditional choices. I'll have to check Chinatown out.
You didn’t show the building in where the underground food court is at? Can you please tell us where it is at 🙏🏼🙏🏼
Richland Center Chinatown Food Court!
@@Jisp02 thank you
You should go and have some hot pot! That's always my favorite thing to eat in any China Town. I've heard Happy Lamb Hot Pot in Chicago is the best out there.
Keep it locked for Part 2 😉
I love to see you eat!!! I’m planning an eating trip to Chicago, I’d appreciate to have prices as in some of your other tours
Triple crown is our favorite in chinatown!!! Iam even javing my b fay party there!
Love the bakeries!!
Chiu Quon has been around since the 1980s, their baked goodies are so legit!!
Awesome Sauce Luis. Everything about this video fantastic. Thanks for sharing with us
Hing Kee has some of the best soup dumplings I have ever had in my life. I strongly suggest trying them out.
Thanks! I've had them before 🥟
Gonna be coming next month, and although most of the food shown is common here in SG, I'll still try some out!
6:26 the chopsticks in the rice 😩 hahha i kid im whatever bout that. but some people would be super anal
hella good video. love how you bring scenes back to the hotel and got such a high quality camera with food all zoomed in
i’m going to chicago for the first time next week and i’m so excited to go to chinatown!
Love MCCB. Was just there with my wife a couple of days ago. Wanted to take some friends from out of town there this week, but they are closed on Tuesdays. Bummer. That dried chili chicken is soooo good, but hotter than you can imagine if you've not had it before.
U went to all my fav spots!
True! QXY & Daebak are two of my favorite restaurants!
Great video. Been to Chinatown countless times and tried many restaurants, but didn't know about the underground food court. I need to find out how to get in there! Also, addresses on the screen would be really helpful. Thanks!
Going to Chicago for the first time today and definitely gonna check out Daebak!
Hope you enjoyed 🍖
Been watching your Chicago videos and I really appreciate all your work. Stayed at the Jaslin hotel and bought bakery at Tous Les Jour all b/c of you.
Thank you so much! Glad to hear!

Try Kam Fung on 22nd Place. It's been my go to since high school. Their salt and pepper pork chops are the best
Love the video,where is this place located ? Beautiful
Legend Tasty House is a must go for rolled ice cream in Chinatown
I haven't tried it yet, maybe next time! Hopefully they have dairy free options 🍨
Love this!! OOOOO the buns look good.
My family and I went to Mayflower. Our waiter was super rude to us. It was our first time ever eating in Chinatown. I might have to give them a second try and go to these restaurants
Nice reviews. One suggestion: Daebak is pronounced like the way we pronounce "Day" minus the "y" plus "bak".
I LOVE QXY. We have traveled to Chinatown from Indiana monthly, just to eat ans enjoy the awesome culture. We been having withdrawals since Covid. Is qxy open for dining in again?
Yes they have reopened indoor dining, you may have to make a reservation
Man I love this page! I want food 🙌🏾😂
Haha thanks Tod!!
Looks good. I’ll visit the food court
Make another china town vid with more restaurants and food please
You should've done dis mid july on a sunday is when the chinatown fair is but it was august this yr bc of covid last yr. i dont remember food court underground tht pretty last time i went there as a kid. Probs cause the entrance isn't that inviting also which is why most ppl dont go in there
Me: *born and raised in Chicago and would often go to China town*
Also me: interesting
Go to emperors choice.. fire wom ton and crab rangoon
You should check out the rou jia mo at lao peng you
QXY is one of my favorite restaurants in the city
Good shit bro!
I'm starving just to see your video
😂
My grandparents lived in Chinatown before and while it was transitioning so I was there a lot growing up. What happened to Won Kow? Any background on it?
Chopsticks straight up in the rice! 😱
Other than that great video!
In Asia we only find mooncakes during mooncake festival which is in July/ August
they're so delicious 🥮
@@LuisGustoComedy yes they are, we look fwd to them
ajoomah apron is my favorite
All the food looks amazing! Me and my friends were thinking about going this weekend and try something new. Kinda weird question but do they speak English in all these places?
Are You gon order in Cantonese?
Silly question...
I remember discovering the food court in Chinatown and it was as if I unlocked a utopia XD. I was like how tf am I just now finding out about this.
My go to is CHI cafe
is chinatown walkable or connected to downtown? do ppl consider it part of like the urban part of the city 😭😭?
It's an extremely walkable neighborhood and a quick train ride from the Loop. You can also walk there from the South Loop. It's very much part of the urban core of Chicago 😎
If you're Downtown? You can hop an El(red line) and get to Chinatown in 10 minutes. It's not that far from Downtown & very accessible.
The Food? Num-num😋
@@geedavia1785 thank you. Planning to go soon. When do they start decorating for Christmas? Best area to visit for the holidays?
How do you get to the underground food court? 🤔
Is there any filipino resto place you can feuture?
Where is the underground food court please?
Dang I wish I seen this video before I went there lmao
for all the times I've been there I've never heard of a under ground food court
You gotta go!
Thank u
💯
Anyone got a good bubble tea place? Looking for red bean flavored with boba
I been to Chicago Chinatown and never know there’s an underground food court. Mind blown lol
Same that’s why I asked where ?!?? I have a feeling it’s the corner doom shape entrance close to the parking lot close to daebak
@@shoppingangelc6035 its the silver/grey building infront of daebak. I think it says theres a PC cafe/foodcourt on the front. But you go in the building and theres stairs leading down to the food courg
Thanks 🙏; eating stuff is mouth watering; Karachi Pakistan 🇵🇰

Richland Center Chinatown Food Court at 2002 S Wentworth Ave in Chicago
