David Greco is one of the coolest man in The Bronx. His father Mike used to tend their shop and he passed last year. NYTimes wrote of about it. He's very approachable and loves to talk about food. I take my family there every couple of months.
Finally someone spoke about the Bronx in a positive light I wish there was a different title but over all this was a good video whenever people speak about the Bronx the first area that’s brought up is the south Bronx the worst part of the Bronx and the ONLY bad part is the south Bronx
I was born in the South Bronx (1950's). Both my parents were also born in the South Bronx (1930's). My Dad Lived on Simpson St. I lived on 172nd street. Nearby was Charlotte Street, intervale ave., Jennings Street, Hoe Ave, etc. The area was pretty damned rough in the mid-late 1960's--1970's.
Yeah, I feel like the accent is going away here now because younger people my age grew up hyper-exposed to mass media. They end up taking in a much more standard American English accent from people on screens during the early stages of language development.

@MTG Zombie White people been leaving New York (Cities) way before the 1965 immigration act. Reason. The federal highway act, which happen destroyed many white middle class city neighborhoods across the country. Then the United States developed a treaty with China to produce most of our goods, which resulted in a lot of city jobs being destroyed. This was in the 1970s. So the immigration act wasn't really about causing white people to leave the cities (already stated), it was 1) done to disenfranchised Black Americans from gaining economic power in their own country and 2) it was passed to exploit labor from third world countries who persons would never contest working conditions or pay.
Yeah you right they kicking out the real working man,, you can't even afford the cost of living with rent being so high and keeps getting higher while jobs are still paying the same crappy wages that does not Equal the cost of living. Forcing people to leave their homes and move to other states for the cheap!!!
True im in S.W Florida and its absolutely packed with people from NYC. same with Florida sandbillys I'm one of the few left here. Definitely would enjoy visiting NYC with someone who knows the place so i could just walk and look ..
Beef patties, steak Shish kabob, NY style pizza, the bagels, Dominican food, Chinese food, the smell of coffee something about NY coffee....I miss NY so much now living in LA, and the Bronx still has that NY feel from the early 2000s .....
I live in Little Italy in the Bronx. I've been living here for 10 years. Coming from Manhattan, I was expecting it to be bad (because of what people used to say), but it's actually not bad at all. It's a very peaceful neighborhood. I wouldn't even think about going back to Manhattan.
oh , i look in this section and i feel one sentiment , one good sentiment and i don't know why. i never go in the usa. can you Tell me how is it? How is the life in the bronx , how are the people? please , 'm from Romania and i looked at the usa just in photos and in videos
@@veraantonix4922 As someone who's been and raised in the Bronx (and still live here as of now), the negative things about it has some truth to it, but it's not the entire truth. Not all parts of the Bronx has a high amount of crime, not all of us are "ghetto," and not all of us are "litter bugs" (those that throw or drop trash purposely on the streets, sidewalls and/or ground, which of course is not exclusive to New York City, in case you're not familiar with the term). At most, they're stereotypes that sadly have not completely died off and is unfortunately treated as the whole truth because of how the media and most of society perceives it, which makes it more believable. It doesn't help that there are those that still identity with this image, regardless of whether or not they're doing it consciously. I'm not sure if the Bronx will ever have a much better reputation. I don't have a solution on how this would work. I'm not in a position to say or know, but certain parts of the Bronx are better than others. I lived in neighborhoods that were at least on the okay/so-so side of things, so my experience hasn't really been so bad. To me, the Bronx is okay depending where I am/live. However, seeing this video makes me feel at least a little bit better about where I'm from. It makes me feel like perhaps I'm not as ignorant about the Bronx as I feared I was since it hasn't been too bad for me. Admittedly,I also had a somewhat sheltered life due to safely reasons, so I may not be considered as "street smart" as some other Bronxites. There's not as much offered in the Bronx compared to Manhattan, it may not be considered as hip either, but it's home to many of us New Yorkers. As it was shown on this video, we're more than any negative stereotype that's out there. Hope this helps ^_^
I love your NYC videos. I miss NYC so bad it hurts. NYC is an amazing city and I treasure the time I lived there. Amazing showing of NYCs sights and sounds! Subbed! Please more NYC vids. Even if its just you sitting in Central Park
Brother.. i really needed this video today .. the beauty of reality among the people..the humanity shines.. it was amazing when shawn says " dont be afraid , dig in " sharing his food as if you were brothers. How humble the community is Through out day even when they are working. The Bronx really does seem like a hidden gem. Recently was emotionally and spiritually broken from work , but this video gave me comfort..thanks brother.
I wanna thank you guys for this video and making me realize how special the Bronx really is. I’ve live here all my life and never took the time to visit most of these important spots in the Bronx so because of you guys I will make is my business to go show some love and respect to these locations.
The Bronx is by far my favourite borough in New York. Have family who live there around Fordham and I don't know how to explain it, but it's always a great vibe when I'm there, walking down the Concourse, etc. Whenever I tell my friends I want to live in the bronx, they think I'm crazy. But I always feel so good when I'm in the BX.
Riverdale is more like Westchester. Lived there and now in Pelham Gardens. It’s where all the contractors live but near Westchester Avenue/Fordham. The 12 bus rocks! We eat at Mike’s about twice a month. The sandwiches are out of this world. And when you are a regular, in the stores on Arthur Avenue, they load you up.
I’m from Queens but I’m always in the Bronx. The Bronx is full of hidden gems. From Hunts Point to Riverdale. The culture is one of a kind and I love it.
@@NySuperFly989 see you thinking hookers and drugs. There's a few spots worth checking there. I personally love Barretto park. That park has awesome views of the city, it's on Viele Avenue. If you go there before school is out it's actually very peaceful. Hence "hidden gems"
@@lucasmossman3820 you haven't fully explored hunts point. Yeah we all know how gutter it gets there, but in my previous comment i stated a place to go there. ALSO if any one like dirty water dogs (how appropriate) Across the street from Chase there's a dude that sells the best dirty water hot dogs in the city! He makes his own chilli and it's really good, if you like spicy.
@@NySuperFly989 Angel, for me is the other way around. I'm from The Bronx, But i'm always in QB the Place 2B. love the BX but Queens Has an awesome night life............
I LOVE THE BX!!! 😍😍❤️❤️I'm from Nashville TN and the BX gave me nothing but love when I came to visit! My hubby is from Castle Hill 🇵🇷 I'm surprised you guys didn't stop by Cross Bronx pizzeria and get a slice 😋😋🍕🍕
I grew up in the Bronx and lived in many places . and finally some one as spoken Positive about the Bronx. I loved the video and shawn Dunn was wonderful help and knows his places of eats. Thank you guys.
@@renatomacchi2195 Um a lot of the whites you speak of, where immigrants from Europe specifically a lot of Irish & Italians, lots of gangs & vandalism was still going on in certain sections even in those eras you speak of as well... Just say you hate people of color son. 😒
You are fake news! There's no way you ate at the chinese buffet everyday after work! You make me sick! I'm glad the buffet didn't tell you about the soda! They owned you and your fake news!
@@juniperod_v7768 oh they always told people about the free soda. Just not the guy who posted this video apparently.. But yeah they are probably one of the best buffets in the bronx. Gotta love that Asian Christmas rap music playing outside the store every day.
The R. That’s a fact although they still worlds apart. Westchester is way more slower pace, which is why some Bronx ppl later relocated up there to raise a family.
I like the Bronx because of the zoo, Yankee Stadium, and the botanical garden. Tour the forgotten borough, Staten Island. Stop at every station on the SIR. The Impractical Jokers are from Staten Island
This video is sooo well made. Love your enthusiasm about NYC!!! I'm from Brooklyn and sometimes I feel like locals become jaded and don't even realize how much good stuff there is in NYC
That was amazing! Probably my favorite tour of yours yet!👏Shawn was a fantastic guide btw. Now I want to go to the Bronx & have me some good food when I come here in the fall...problem is, after watching your guides & Jon's guides, that's all I'll be doing! Eating!😂😍 Good work Tal!
The Bronx has so much potential and could easily be the best borough to live in if a few things changed. Thanks for showing some of the great things in the Bronx. As someone who lives here, I wish more people would realize the Bronx isn’t that bad.
I’m from Da BRONX and have been living in Japan for some years now. I just visited the Bronx this summer and man I miss being there. So many buildings and other things have changed but that BRONX feeling was the same. Da BRONX is one of those places you leave come back and feel like you never really left. I mean the first day back which was a Friday was a little off for me as there were so many people out and about. But by the next morning I was out and got right into the life as if I had never left.
I grew up on Burnside and Walton. I lived there for almost 35 years. I moved out in 2012. A whole lot has changed in the last 15 years. A lot more businesses and a lot of new housing apartments being built. Thank you for showing my old neighborhood. :)
I live in the Bronx and I live in the Pelham Parkway. I love going to Little Italy to go to the market. I also get my cheese from La Casa De Mozzarella. Glad someone saw the amazing culture and love behind the crime here.
I'm seeing this a year later, but was intrigued and happy I clicked onto your channel. Excellent tour! The Italian gentleman making cheese was so entertaining and interesting. Appreciate the host and his subscriber, you did an excellent job gentleman of showing us around the Bronx! As a non-native of New York, I still thoroughly enjoyed it
Really enjoy this vlog and I'm glad you went to the Bronx, it does has a bad reputation, but like any place there is good and bad areas, as long as you ain't looking for trouble, you will be fine
honestly the biggest place I've known that has to do with Fordham Rd is Fordham Plaza. you can get some good street food, ton of places to get hats and other cool stuff. I've always loved living in the bronx and really sucks it had a terrible reputation because of the 70s and 80s.
Bronx ..the home of great talents. This was great tour! Hehe so cute, the way you two were dancing like back in high school, enjoying and appreciating the food, places and kindness of the business owners. Look like a great time, thanks for taking us along. Bronx always reminds me of KRS1, and D-Nice, Fat joe , Big Pun and the boricua / Morena anthem. Cedar Playground reminded me of self destruction video though not sure it was shot there but somehow it reminded me of it. Boogie Down Bronx alot of great history and greats!!
I LOVE The Bronx!!!! First time I actually started to live out here, I lived in The Bronx for over a month. I never had any issues. I love the beauty and tech shops on 3rd ave off of 145th st. Good food, friendly people, cheap products, good fashion. They welcome everyone up there! I'd rather live in The Bronx opposed to any other borough in NYC. The Bronx is where it's at!!!!
I always felt safe in Da Bronx, felt like others had my back. I still remember how our neighbors looked after each other. There are bad places in most cities, just be aware of your surrounding
I've been enjoying all of your videos for the past couple of days. I'm from Oxford, Alabama and I've always wanted to come to New York City! Maybe even live there!! There's so much culture and so much to do. Maybe me and my family will come up there soon and eat at some of these cool places. Thank you for all the great content! I subscribed to your channel.
I love this video ! I just wish you covered more places ! I’ve lived in almost every part of the Bronx throughout my 18 years on this planet so maybe that’s why I feel this way. But love the video 💖
@@jorgebobe9329 O_o you sure i thought bottle water was better but ok i live in South Tennessee and the tap water sux but am under 13 anyways so i dont get to pick where i wanna move
Honestly you went to the best places. Woohoo! You did the Bronx some justice. Finally, someone mentioned City Island . You should do a whole video on City Island. 🙌🏽❤️
You can’t go there without getting the coco bread. I buy my patties down the block and walk up the block to get the coco bread. There’s often a line out the door just for coco bread!
I loved this vlog!!! You showed all my favorite places to go and eat in The Bronx!!! Shawn is a Excellent tour guide!!! When going to Kingston Tropical Bakery you must buy the Coco Bread!!! The Coco Bread and Beef Patties are the best. The Coco Bread is hot, soft and very fresh!!!
Except for your choice in the title, I really loved this vlog. You showed all the places most people don't know about. I love Arthur Ave, I love Cannolis, you forgot to feature the many bakeries! Love this!
@@TheTravelingClatt it's actually not the most DANGEROUS borough, infamous yes, but hardly dangerous. It really depends on which part, each borough has a dangerous part. I'm in Queens and there are parts I would never step a foot in, LOL! Great video though! Watching again! The mozzarella guy was so sweet and very generous!
You missed soooo much of Da Bronx but maybe you'll come again. My daughter's always said i should have been a tour guide for all of the boros i know them all.. Glad you had fun...
It’s soo sad how the Bronx is the best borough, but people think the Bronx is all bad, & crime related.. but that’s everywhere in the world. the BX is beautiful especially if u know how to navigate through the entire borough, there’s plenty more places in the BX that’s amazing they didn’t cover in this video, it’s sooooo down to earth & welcoming, u just gotta know how to walk the walk, stay true & genuine & you wouldn’t wanna leave, u would get a lot of love & respect here, ohh & just have common sense. I love the boogie down Bronx it’s the realest boro hands down, this is the Birthplace of everything!
#Mangupower Mango is a traditional dish, original and typical of some Caribbean countries such as the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. In Costa Rica it is called angú. [1] The mangú is basically a puree of green bananas (or ripe in its version of sweet mangú), and it is made by salting bananas and then crushing them until a puree is obtained. The mofongo is an Afro-Antillean dish that has clear fufu roots (different vegetables with starch) from West Africa. It was introduced into the Caribbean by Africans living in the Spanish colonies of the New World such as Puerto Rico (Mofongo), Cuba (banana fufu) and the Dominican Republic (mofongo). Fufú is made up of a starchy root of crushed boiled vegetables and bananas, and mixed with water, butter or milk until it has a dough consistency.
It’s nice to see this video. I’m a Bronx Girl born and raised. I use to live on the same block as Cedar Park. That was my neighborhood. I lived on Sedgwick Ave before moving to Florida in 2014 but I still have family that live in The Bronx. 💯 It will always be my home. ❤️ Thanks for this video. You brought back so many memories. 😊 If I’m not mistaken..... I thought they named 1520 Sedgwick to Cedar Park Hip-Hop Blvd. 🤔
Way before Dominicans migrated from the DR to NY the restaurants were predominantly Puerto Rican. There might be one or two in the Bronx but it was called Cuchifritos.
@Aggressive Filmmaker not true Black people built America. White folks got wealthy through slavery and didn’t pay a dime to the slaves. Today Amerikkka is bankrupt and is in $23 trillion debt. It is falling like Babylon.
I met a group of Irish women from one of the Kil-counties who informed me that a new housing development back home had been named "Woodlawn" in honor of the Bronx nabe. Meanwhile, if I ever found a Bronx-based basketball team (unlikely), I'm going to call it the "Woodlawn Bogtrotters".

@@NySuperFly989 Angel, for me is the other way around. I'm from The Bronx, But i'm always in QB the Place 2B. love the BX but Queens Has an awesome night life............
low lives everywhere.
I LOVE THE BX!!! 😍😍❤️❤️I'm from Nashville TN and the BX gave me nothing but love when I came to visit! My hubby is from Castle Hill 🇵🇷 I'm surprised you guys didn't stop by Cross Bronx pizzeria and get a slice 😋😋🍕🍕
There is pizzeria Castle Hill and Bruckner where a slice of pizza is so huge,,one 8s not enough for me haha
I grew up in the Bronx and lived in many places . and finally some one as spoken Positive about the Bronx. I loved the video and shawn Dunn was wonderful help and knows his places of eats. Thank you guys.
Thank You Traveling Clatt.
Favorite NYC guide of yours so far - amazing tour of The Bronx! Props to Shawn for taking you to so many great spots
Thanks pals!
This is what Manhattan used to be about before Disney showed up, all the mom and pop spots, family run businesses. Real New York
Facts, sadly the Bronx is slowly getting gentrified as well...
Happening all over the world. London has changed in the same way.. I feel your pain..
@@Bleek17Six Gentrified and taken over by destructive colored people since the 1960's. It was all White before.
@@renatomacchi2195
Um a lot of the whites you speak of, where immigrants from Europe specifically a lot of Irish & Italians, lots of gangs & vandalism was still going on in certain sections even in those eras you speak of as well...
Just say you hate people of color son. 😒
@@Bleek17Six I think he does , unfortunately because I've noticed he posts the same exact drivel on this video numerous times.
Hah. I used to eat at the $4 Chinese buffet every day after work. They forgot to mention that you also get a free can of soda with your purchase.
You are fake news! There's no way you ate at the chinese buffet everyday after work! You make me sick! I'm glad the buffet didn't tell you about the soda! They owned you and your fake news!
@@d10fel learn how to read dumb ass.. And also learn how to troll
@@NewYorkFloridaMan Omg I love Merryland buffet. It is the best buffet in the Bronx but now they do tell u about the free soda
@@juniperod_v7768 oh they always told people about the free soda. Just not the guy who posted this video apparently.. But yeah they are probably one of the best buffets in the bronx. Gotta love that Asian Christmas rap music playing outside the store every day.
@@NewYorkFloridaMan Only the real people would understand over filling the containers and buying the frozen lemonade! lol don't let the haters fool ya
Great presentation! You guys did a great job with showing certain parts of the "Boogy Down" Bronx!
This video is vibin. Great channel!
The Bronx is also the only borough connected to mainland USA (the rest are islands and on an island) great video. Cheers from a yellow cabbie!
The R.
That’s a fact.. I’m from the Bronx, & big respect to west Chester 914
We know.
The R. That’s a fact although they still worlds apart. Westchester is way more slower pace, which is why some Bronx ppl later relocated up there to raise a family.
@the intruder Yonkers and mt Vernon is not bad
“Anybody can do it but you have to have passion” I like that
I like the Bronx because of the zoo, Yankee Stadium, and the botanical garden. Tour the forgotten borough, Staten Island. Stop at every station on the SIR. The Impractical Jokers are from Staten Island
Coming soon
I’m from Brooklyn and the first time I took the SIRR I was surprised to see you can board for free at most all of the stops.
I always see your comments at the "Only In Japan" channel. Hahaha
I’m was born and raised in Staten Island I promise you there nothing good going out here there nothing to tour nun of that Staten Island is ass
Alli no mas. Viva Cuba. I love the South Bronx.
Thanks for bringing back a lot of good memories. I’ve been living in Asia the past 10 years but being from New York, these are the things that I miss.
This video is sooo well made. Love your enthusiasm about NYC!!! I'm from Brooklyn and sometimes I feel like locals become jaded and don't even realize how much good stuff there is in NYC
That was amazing! Probably my favorite tour of yours yet!👏Shawn was a fantastic guide btw. Now I want to go to the Bronx & have me some good food when I come here in the fall...problem is, after watching your guides & Jon's guides, that's all I'll be doing! Eating!😂😍 Good work Tal!
Haha glad you liked!!
Hit him up on his Instagram. I'm actually meeting up with him this week to check out the bronx
The Bronx has so much potential and could easily be the best borough to live in if a few things changed. Thanks for showing some of the great things in the Bronx. As someone who lives here, I wish more people would realize the Bronx isn’t that bad.
Yes, but hope it doesn't turn into what Harlem is looking like.
@@margaritaramos3393 Why not? That will be a good thing
@@margaritaramos3393 Harlem looking good these days
@@mar.c1 For who?
Billy V. Yeah the Bronx is pretty bad but it’s still a beautiful area as far as culture goes.
I’m from Da BRONX and have been living in Japan for some years now. I just visited the Bronx this summer and man I miss being there. So many buildings and other things have changed but that BRONX feeling was the same. Da BRONX is one of those places you leave come back and feel like you never really left. I mean the first day back which was a Friday was a little off for me as there were so many people out and about. But by the next morning I was out and got right into the life as if I had never left.
Welcome to the Bronx! Thank you for capturing that hospitality. I love my borough 💛
I'm from Queens but I've worked in several different areas in the Bronx. North and South... Bx is lit af always. Love the bx.
And this Bronxite loves Queens. I’m looking for that video.
Man learning more about Nyc makes me just wanna move there more and more it looks nice there
Same; Queens born and raised but BX is like my 2nd home; due to most of my familly reside from there
I grew up on Burnside and Walton. I lived there for almost 35 years. I moved out in 2012. A whole lot has changed in the last 15 years. A lot more businesses and a lot of new housing apartments being built. Thank you for showing my old neighborhood. :)
That was a rough area! I Lived on Sedgwick Ave and Kingsbridge Rd in Kingbridge Heights and now live in Norwood (Bainbridge)
Where do you live now? I know Burnside ave. Tremont ave. 161st Yankee stadium, i lived on Creston ave.
I live in the Bronx and I live in the Pelham Parkway. I love going to Little Italy to go to the market. I also get my cheese from La Casa De Mozzarella. Glad someone saw the amazing culture and love behind the crime here.
Yeah it's such an awesome place
TheTravelingClatt haha I forgot to add full moon is my go to place after some shopping in little italy
Lived off Pelham Parkway for two years - one of the best places on earth (minus the 5 train). If you like mozz, try Battaglia's on Eastchester Rd!!
Eating TopRamen they skipped too many places. They didn't even go to city island
Eating TopRamen , my dad was the president the Pelham Parkway little league, gorgeous buildings
That italian dude is my uncle damm
Lucky. I wish he was my uncle. Haha 😆
i love his personality
Is he a capo in the bonanno family? Lol he is awesomr
@@geraldcastillo9637 yu I p
Very nice. Thanks for capturing the spirit of the Bronx I once knew!
Awesome video. Born in Harlem raised in the Bronx. This video brought back some great memories. I have nothing but love my Borough.
I'm seeing this a year later, but was intrigued and happy I clicked onto your channel. Excellent tour! The Italian gentleman making cheese was so entertaining and interesting. Appreciate the host and his subscriber, you did an excellent job gentleman of showing us around the Bronx! As a non-native of New York, I still thoroughly enjoyed it
The Italian guy is awesome! He's needs his own show.
I'm moving up to The Bronx in six days and this video is just getting me even more excited!
Hope guzzle it depends what part
Food truly is a way to bring people together...i love it!! And those prices!!?? Daaamn you cant beat that!!
I'm from the Bronx and loved this video.... Thanks for showing that there are different parts of the Bronx
Really enjoy this vlog and I'm glad you went to the Bronx, it does has a bad reputation, but like any place there is good and bad areas, as long as you ain't looking for trouble, you will be fine
I think so as well!
😂😂😂Cuz if you show up looking for trouble I guarantee you, you won’t be disappointed.....😏
The Bronx is a major low life shit hole ! #FACTS!
The Bronx is the best , get THE Bronx,no other borough has THE before it ,so THE BRONX IS THE BEST
@@blessed4164 LMFAO
Thank you so much for this video! I’m from the Bronx and there are some beautiful places here especially the food and people
Always a great watch my friend! keep being amazing and once again thank you for the great interview with us
Thanks my friend!
yall took me back to my childhood..thanks so much :)
Now this is a Vlog !! I really really enjoyed this video and it reminded me of my NY childhood memories.
Can’t forget the bacon egg and cheese
In da Bronx?
Naaa, it’s baconeggandcheese😭
And chopped cheese
@@TheTravelingClatt yes the main breakfast sandwich of da Bronx from the bodega lol.
yessir
honestly the biggest place I've known that has to do with Fordham Rd is Fordham Plaza. you can get some good street food, ton of places to get hats and other cool stuff. I've always loved living in the bronx and really sucks it had a terrible reputation because of the 70s and 80s.
Fordham is great
Slayer Port Morris and bay plaza have nice food spots as well
It really is!
Love shopping in Fordham. Love from Jamaican
Robert De-niro lives in the Bronx ? that guy seemed old school mafia lol
Haha yeah he is
@68Camaro RS/SS mostly everyone in hollywood is
@@TheTravelingClatt lol 😂 cheers for the reply hun love your videos 😚😀
Robert DiNero was born in the Bronx ...didn't know he lives in the Bronx
Chrissie Ayres well he was in the Bronx tale
Shawn is a great guy, and a perfect representative for this lovely and underrated borough. He could easily run his own popular TH-cam channel.
Bronx ..the home of great talents. This was great tour! Hehe so cute, the way you two were dancing like back in high school, enjoying and appreciating the food, places and kindness of the business owners. Look like a great time, thanks for taking us along. Bronx always reminds me of KRS1, and D-Nice, Fat joe , Big Pun and the boricua / Morena anthem. Cedar Playground reminded me of self destruction video though not sure it was shot there but somehow it reminded me of it. Boogie Down Bronx alot of great history and greats!!
Awesome tour, awesome tour guide !!
Love that guy!
Here Be Barr When are you doing a BX tour?
@@WORSTDAYOFYOURLIFE If Shawn joins me, I'd love to. Going to contact him with some ideas :)
Am from the bx dude I have been in all does restaurants offical
@@TheTravelingClatt love you too buddy
That Italian guy is a character 😂👌🏽😎
He's cool dude bro.
He's a boss.
I LOVE The Bronx!!!!
First time I actually started to live out here, I lived in The Bronx for over a month. I never had any issues. I love the beauty and tech shops on 3rd ave off of 145th st.
Good food, friendly people, cheap products, good fashion. They welcome everyone up there! I'd rather live in The Bronx opposed to any other borough in NYC. The Bronx is where it's at!!!!
Don't forget to follow me on Instagram!
instagram.com/thetravelingclatt ♥️
TheTravelingClatt ....you are sooo kool👍..be safe & well💕
I always felt safe in Da Bronx, felt like others had my back. I still remember how our neighbors looked after each other. There are bad places in most cities, just be aware of your surrounding
That Italian restaurant owner cool
As hell im definitely going to check that place out!
Becareful he's a wise guy, but a good guy love his food, i'll check him out one day.
BX stand up yerrrrrrr . I live around Burnside. Best borough hands down! 👏🏼👏🏼
Yeeerrr 🙋 bx reppin
Yerrrrrrrrrrrrrr
ayumitakashi stop lying
ayumitakashi stop lying to people it’s the most dangerous
reckless sure.... like Brooklyn don't got higher crime rates why don't u research before u start talking u stupid ass nigga
I've been enjoying all of your videos for the past couple of days. I'm from Oxford, Alabama and I've always wanted to come to New York City! Maybe even live there!! There's so much culture and so much to do. Maybe me and my family will come up there soon and eat at some of these cool places. Thank you for all the great content! I subscribed to your channel.
I love this video ! I just wish you covered more places ! I’ve lived in almost every part of the Bronx throughout my 18 years on this planet so maybe that’s why I feel this way. But love the video 💖
I’ve lived all over NYC and I must say that the Bronx has the BEST tap water.
my nigga moved to florida and the first thing he always tells me is he misses the tap water.. lol
You gotta that right,,Tonya,,,only fools buys bottle water
@@jorgebobe9329 O_o you sure i thought bottle water was better but ok i live in South Tennessee and the tap water sux but am under 13 anyways so i dont get to pick where i wanna move
I Love the South Bronx back in the Late 70's and 80's...I came to the Bronx in 78 from ST.Albans,Queens
More videos with Shawn please ☺️ he brings great content and excitement.
Honestly you went to the best places. Woohoo! You did the Bronx some justice. Finally, someone mentioned City Island . You should do a whole video on City Island. 🙌🏽❤️
Fr real but walking there takes forever from the 6, the bus takes a while, and traffic is backed up for miles at times
Your garbage
Thanks I also have my own channel please subscribe
@@arikq_nyc438 kudos to you for walking from the 6 line
Good vibes from you guys! Thank you for this video.
this is such a good video i subscribed from this one!!
Not for nothing but that jamaican beef patty spot is the shit. Ya missing the cocoa bread tho
best place ever and so cheap and yes the freakin' Coco Bread!
do they have spice buns? i legit eat that stuff nonstop through the day
Elizabeth Bennet I don’t think so I’ve been there like 100 times I haven’t seen it but they might
You can’t go there without getting the coco bread. I buy my patties down the block and walk up the block to get the coco bread. There’s often a line out the door just for coco bread!
Beef patty w chesse omgggg i want one
I loved this vlog!!! You showed all my favorite places to go and eat in The Bronx!!! Shawn is a Excellent tour guide!!!
When going to Kingston Tropical Bakery you must buy the Coco Bread!!! The Coco Bread and Beef Patties are the best. The Coco Bread is hot, soft and very fresh!!!
Except for your choice in the title, I really loved this vlog. You showed all the places most people don't know about. I love Arthur Ave, I love Cannolis, you forgot to feature the many bakeries! Love this!
How you understand the reasoning for the title!.
@@TheTravelingClatt it's actually not the most DANGEROUS borough, infamous yes, but hardly dangerous. It really depends on which part, each borough has a dangerous part. I'm in Queens and there are parts I would never step a foot in, LOL! Great video though! Watching again! The mozzarella guy was so sweet and very generous!
This was the best video ever, makes me want to get on a plane and go to the Bronx right now!
Your going to have a blast trust me lol
You missed soooo much of Da Bronx but maybe you'll come again. My daughter's always said i should have been a tour guide for all of the boros i know them all.. Glad you had fun...
It’s soo sad how the Bronx is the best borough, but people think the Bronx is all bad, & crime related.. but that’s everywhere in the world. the BX is beautiful especially if u know how to navigate through the entire borough, there’s plenty more places in the BX that’s amazing they didn’t cover in this video, it’s sooooo down to earth & welcoming, u just gotta know how to walk the walk, stay true & genuine & you wouldn’t wanna leave, u would get a lot of love & respect here, ohh & just have common sense. I love the boogie down Bronx it’s the realest boro hands down, this is the Birthplace of everything!
David was amazing . I will definitely go to his spot so much hospitality 🥰. Shaun took him to some great spots great guy ❣️👍

#Mangupower
Mango is a traditional dish, original and typical of some Caribbean countries such as the Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico. In Costa Rica it is called angú. [1] The mangú is basically a puree of green bananas (or ripe in its version of sweet mangú), and it is made by salting bananas and then crushing them until a puree is obtained.
The mofongo is an Afro-Antillean dish that has clear fufu roots (different vegetables with starch) from West Africa. It was introduced into the Caribbean by Africans living in the Spanish colonies of the New World such as Puerto Rico (Mofongo), Cuba (banana fufu) and the Dominican Republic (mofongo). Fufú is made up of a starchy root of crushed boiled vegetables and bananas, and mixed with water, butter or milk until it has a dough consistency.
Such an amazing video, I'll be doing my 2nd trip to NYC this next October and after seeing this, I will be visiting the Bronx for sure.
Love the video am hungry 😋😋😋😋👍👏🏻
The world is dangerous you can't avoid danger if it supposed to happen
Be safe people
Right!
It’s nice to see this video. I’m a Bronx Girl born and raised. I use to live on the same block as Cedar Park. That was my neighborhood. I lived on Sedgwick Ave before moving to Florida in 2014 but I still have family that live in The Bronx. 💯 It will always be my home. ❤️ Thanks for this video. You brought back so many memories. 😊 If I’m not mistaken..... I thought they named 1520 Sedgwick to Cedar Park Hip-Hop Blvd. 🤔
Thanks pal! Glad you enjoyed
🅱️❌ 🤟🏾
Thanks for visiting our city "the BRONX appreciated it so much... 👍👏👏💗💗
Missing nyc before covid watching this! Ty for sharing :)
Your friend could be a nice tour guide and a friend to hangout with. Great positive vibe!
I totally loved this tour!! I live in Puerto Rico, but I never forget my birthplace and old stomping grounds. 💪😎
i grew up in the booguie down Bronx! there are beautiful places here.... love it!!!!!
THE GREATEST BOROUGH IN NEW YORK
Steven Strzepka 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nope! Queens is the best borough.
Steven Strzepka you misspelled worst lmao
Steven Strzepka that being said it’s still a really cool place I love all the boroughs of the city I’ve just had the wort experiences at this one
@@adventuresofdave3324 THAT WAS NOT ME? I DO NOT WROTE THAT.
incredible. I am from france and I loved your documentary about the bronx !!!
You guys did a great job with this video. New subscriber
Way before Dominicans migrated from the DR to NY the restaurants were predominantly Puerto Rican. There might be one or two in the Bronx but it was called Cuchifritos.
@Aggressive Filmmaker not true Black people built America. White folks got wealthy through slavery and didn’t pay a dime to the slaves. Today Amerikkka is bankrupt and is in $23 trillion debt. It is falling like Babylon.
I love The Bronx, Italians and Mike! I'm from Melrose! The little Italy part of the video. Took me back to old school. A Bronx Tale!!!
It was filmed the at 188st
Woodlawn is also a part of the Bronx! I love my neighborhood. It’s basically Little Ireland. Super quiet neighborhood and so many popular bars..
yea it's nice. I live in Norwood which was Woodlawn before Woodlawn lol
I met a group of Irish women from one of the Kil-counties who informed me that a new housing development back home had been named "Woodlawn" in honor of the Bronx nabe.
Meanwhile, if I ever found a Bronx-based basketball team (unlikely), I'm going to call it the "Woodlawn Bogtrotters".
As a Dominican Bronx native about to start a YT channel this just made me excited to explore my city
You two are great ❤️
