- Though dim sum has its roots in ancient China, the meal has become an inextricable part of life in NYC. In order to help Sean Evans navigate the cuisine's unique customs and courtesies, Strictly Dumpling's Mike Chen decided to set up a crash-course at Nom Wah Tea Parlor, the oldest dim sum shop in Chinatown. From proper tea etiquette to strategy for attacking a plate of chicken feet, TH-cam's globetrotting gourmand breaks down the dim sum dos and dont's for dumpling fanatics everywhere.

Mike's inner dialogue: "This would be so much better with hot oil..."
International Observer holy shit your life must be fucking boring
or Vinegar
@@andrewisnotdead lmfao right its so annoying, i just wanna know what the fuck they said
For Cantonese, it means "what your Heart desires" too.
mike chen for hot ones hot wings! chili oil addict
Didn't Mike say he was making an online store of bottled hot oil? I don't remember which video but I can tell you that he said that
hot ones, hot feet. mike chen edition ;)
Triple Stabber if so yes please! then send that to the heatonist
Mike would crush it. He ate through that crazy hot curry in one of his earlier videos.
I suspect that's something they already talked about and either they have one coming up in season 4 of Hot Ones with their newest hottest hot sauce.. or they both realized it wouldn't be a challenge for him.
As a Westerner, my first Dim Sum experience was a total freak-out. No menus. No prices. Nobody spoke English. I didn't know what 90% of the items were. The staff kept stamping our "card" with chinese characters. I spent the whole time dreading that the characters meant "$50", "$100"... Lol. But, everything was great and the meal was way cheaper than I expected. I kind of relaxed after that.
@Fiston Fêlé you went to Jing Fong!! That place is absolutely magical and amazing. Best dim sum I've ever had was there.
As a person who grew up on a farm where almost every bit of the animal was used. I have never understood why people are grossed out by eating brains, feet, or faces of animals. How much more different are they than eating a rib cage or ass cheek?
Something had to die to provide you with nutrition so be thankful and let nothing go to waste.
One of my most favorite dishes ever, were pickled pigs feet. My step grandmother was very German. She used a recipes passed down from her grand mother for them. I only had them twice. Once at 6 and once at 11 and that was some of the best pork I have ever had.
I think with our modern American mentality we get grossed out by seeing the limbs, however that is a contradiction....... because what meat eater doesn't enjoy chewing the meat off of a rib cage?
Step out of your comfort zone people, and give thanks to the animals who die for us. Utilize every part of them, or just be a vegan.
Jeff Turner Nice speech. As a Chinese I think the same. Chinese were suffered in poverty so we cherished every piece of an ingredient.. our ancestors found their own ways to cook those special things. That’s the experience most of the westerns never had. And those ways are preserved till today. The way I was educated in China is that if u don’t like the type of food don’t eat it. But don’t judge others who do. That’s the basic polite for us, and yet a lotta western people don’t feel like it.
Jeff Turner in Trinidad we also eat pickled pigs feet and chicken feet. It’s called souse. We also eat oxtails and cow heels. There’s so much collagen and nutrition in these parts of the animal, why waste it!
I agree save brains, because you can actually get really dangerous, incurable diseases from eating even fully cooked brains
As a person who grew up in an isolated tribe, where almost every bit of the person was used. I have never understood why people are grossed out by eating brains, feet, or faces of humans. How much more different are they than eating ass?
One of my most favorite dishes ever, were pickled dicks. My step grandmother was very Gay. She used a recipes passed down from her grand mother for them. I only had them twice. Once at 6 and once at 420 and that was some of the best cock I have ever had.
blablabla
Nah I'm good
Respect for teaching the audience about the chinese tea culture and etiquette instead of just having Sean go in and chow down chicken feet and record his response. Yum cha is a cuisine specifically based around socializing while drinking hot tea, so it's got a different context to it than just chowing down food. It's nice to see they care about the context.
I really like that Mikey Chen explains the culture behind eating _dim sum_ . Mind you, one time I hurt my fingers (slighty) when I lightly rapped my fingers (in the move shown in the video) unintentionally on a chop stick holder. :-/
Jason Leung Yum cha? I just realized where Akira Toriyama got the name for Yamucha/Yamcha.
Jason Leung Yep, definitely going to do what he talked about in the video next time I go there :))
Yeah, Yamcha from DB came from Yam-Cha meaning to drink tea.
Get him on Hot Ones! You'll need to boost the scovilles for him, though.
Hi, I'm Ben. True
He'd be wiped out by wing 7 :D
Joseph C Have you seen his hottest Curry in ny video? He can handle heat
Joseph C You clearly never watch Mike's videos. He adds spice to everything he eats. He wouldn't have any problems polishing off those wings.
I'm subscribed to him, and I've seen tons of his videos. Eating moderately spicy food regularly is nothing compared to massive, concentrated doses of capsaicin. He'd certainly handle it better than DJ Khaled would, but he's not some spice master.
Having Mike on the show and not eating anything spicy... I call this a missed opportunity. Sad!
Oanh Tran agreed.
It's dim sum. There's no very spicy dishes in Cantonese cuisine.
@@RaymondHng : There are spicy Cantonese dish.
There are some spicy Cantonese dishes. But those are in the minority. There's no abundance of _extremely_ spicy Cantonese dishes. And all the common dishes found in dim sum (dumplinges, buns, rolls, steamed/roasted meats, rice) are not spicy.
I couldn't agree more.😏
We were in NYC for a family vacation and made a lunch reservation for this restaurant. This filming was going on when we got there. Fun to watch take place and the dim sum was delicious!
International Observer Do you just spend your life rewriting the same comment in slightly differing sentence structures and upvoting yourself?
treasure2914 does she really leave this comment on a bunch of different videos ,
Sean and Mike Chen!? Heck yes!
I've watched him so long I feel like a proud and nervous parent in the background cheering him on.
Sean Evans has one of the best jobs ever, love the new foods each week.
3 Good Guys Sean suffers for us every week eating hot ass wings. It's nice he gets to eat nice food eventually
TheDrFunkenstein Lmao I know right
TheDrFunkenstein I'm pretty sure he's used to the wings 😂
I want to be Sean, but currently I'm laying in my bed, wishing I had what Sean's eating right now
3 Good Guys and he doesn't get fat!!!!!!!! I wish I could eat all that hot wings and food without worry getting fat hahaha
I love seeing you two together. Mike Chen and Sean Evans together at the same table, is priceless.
so the tapping of the fingers I heard comes from the times of an emperor who wanted to see first hand how his people lived. He took his trusted servant and swapped clothes and headed out. Since the servant is playing the emperor and the emperor is playing the servant, when the servant (emperor) poured tea into the cup of the emperor(servant) to show respect to the emperor (which usually is bowing when a king or emperor gives you something) he simulated bowing by putting his 2 fingers together and tapping the table, just so they can maintain their cover....thus the tradition continues till today that when someone pours you tea, you tap with your fingers. - cool story bro.
Yep the emperor was Qian Long when he went undercover in the city
I thought it was a three finger tap, where the middle one does not touch the table, to simulate the head.
the finger tap is very old tho, allot of chinese people dont even know this. but yeah mike chen probably just did some research on the internet and assumed this is a rule
Sounds like bullshit
Wowww how interesting!!! I’ve seen this happen a lot :)
No bullshit, this collab is one i've dreamed of.
Same here. I love Mike, been watching his channels for years.
Mike Mertes SAAME I WATCHED HIM WHEN HE WAS ON DOUBLE CHEN (CHEN DYNASTY) AND I'M SO GLAD HE'S GETTING SUCCESS
Sean hitting up all my favourite youtubers DAYUM
Speaking of which, where is DAYM DROPS :p
GUnit187 He did a fast food spicey food review with him already.
GUnit187 he already on this channel about 4 month ago... reviewing spicy fast-food
Nunya Bidness damn you're right, I even gave the video a thumbs up -_-
I know, right??!?!?
I believe the finger tapping comes from when my boy Emperor Qianlong was undercover, and poured one of his vassals some tea, so because this servant couldn't bow to Qianlong and touch his head to the ground, he tapped two fingers on the table to signify the bow without blowing the Emperor's cover.
Pretty sure that's it, correct me if I'm wrong!
This is honestly such a great crossover between these channels. Mike is so knowledgeable about this type of cuisine and Sean does a great job at being really receptive and listening close to what Mike says. This was so enjoyable to watch. I'm sad it took me this long to find this.
Where the hot oil at?
Sichuan, Hunan, and Hubei.
It's not the same without itXC Mike even made a shirt design just cause of his love for hot oil
I know right, I go to eat dim sum for that. It’s like eating fries without ketchup or hotdogs without mustard.
There is hot oil in hk dim sum restaurants but it’s almost not spicy
Legendary collab
First We Feast knows how to pick em.
I love that Sean is collaborating with some of my favorite TH-cam food channels!
fuck yes.. mike chen and sean evans. please get mike on hot ones.
I LOVE the guests in this series
Respect for bringing on Mike Sean
Respect for coming to see Sean Mike
How did I ever miss this episode? Mikey is one of my favourite TH-camrs! A belated thanks for having him on Sean. You’re awesome!
Mike Chen is a great host and seems like a genuinely good dude. I'd love to see him take down a plate of wings with Sean on Hot Ones.
We need to see Mike destroy those wings on the show! All that hot oil he eats, he got it haha.
asaeterntc Just a snack to him!
Even the hottest hot oil Mike is eating can't compare to several of the sauces on Hot Ones. Hot oil is delicious, but I sincerely doubt he's been eating any made from morugas and reapers.
he did the spiciest curry in the world on his channel check it out its pretty dope
id love to see him eat some wings!
Joseph C Yeah... you've not been watching all of Simply Dumpling. He can eat anything hot so long as it's technically not going to kill you.
It's like we live on the same part of the Internet, Sean.
Danny Paez it's like he knows who is amazing to bring on guest. mikey is so dope
david mckesey It's like his producers send people his way...
Danny Paez nice hat.
I LUV Mike! He is so lovely, I'm so glad you colab'd with him!
I'm so glad you collabed with Mike! He has the greatest not only expressions but taste and love for food!
Wow my two favorite food youtubers collabing in the same video!
ziljin I know I was so excited too !!!!
hope they can collab more often! would like to see Mike scarf down some spicy wings!
I was waiting for the hot ones series with Mike, let it happen please god.
I would watch it, but Mike is almost dead to most spice. I don't think he would even notice the heat until the last 3 wings.
I really appreciate how respectful Sean is to the food and the delicacies.
Daamn!! My boi Mike Chen finally getting the recognition he deserves!!
Yoooooo! Didn't see this one coming! Love both of these dudes!
Sean is the most advanced chat bot in world.
Smoothie tide he has personality what do u mean
SOME DUDE Sean does have a personality, but I just think Mike is just more charismatic. Both are awesome.
I'm so stoked over this collab!
Mike's 'How To' video of Las Vegas buffets is one of the best I've ever seen on TH-cam.
YAAASSSS collab !!!!
collab im excited about. your use of the word "yas" not so much.....
stop saying yas "make america less yas(ish) again"
Stove sensitive much
Stove sensitive much
no yas is a word morons use. it needs to stop. ITS TIME TO STOOOOP (h3)
Stove quiet upset over a meme aren't ya lmfao
mikey chen is one of my favorite youtubers ever!
This is awesome!!!! Love Mike and Sean together!! Two of my favorite foodies!!!
Oh my goodness. This video takes me back when I used to live Cleveland. Dim Sum is life
mike chen is the man . he has so many channels"beyond science is one of my favs" "off the great wall is also a good one",,, great episode
How do you like beyond science?
Mike hasn't been with OTGW for over a year, dude.
His beyond science channel is beyond stupid. I've seen so many videos on that channel. It has nothing to do with science. He talks about supernatural nonsense. It's disrespecting science lmfao.
Bhavin Tanna thank god someone in this comments section shares my opinion
ok, well , its called BEYOND science, which explains the supernatural bit....its in the name , its not called science channel
"Chicken Feet, No Big Deal" cuz they took Sriracha away from us.
HailHadrian Valentina Black Label no big deal
HailHadrian wtf right when he said that i literally scrolled on your comment
I am beyond overjoyed to see Mike Chen on your channel.
I love watching Mike Chen and Evans so this was a treat.
Never expected this collaboration
Please a longer vid with both. Great collab. I watch both of their channels and I can see there being chemistry with food involved. Crazy seeing two ppl together that you watch for different reasons. I don't even categorize their videos as similar even if both involve food their cultural styles and content are way different but great!!
Man where has this been all my life. I love both of these guys.
my favorite youtubers, you guys are awesome and it makes me double happy to see you together.
Sean blending into the background in this one.
Mr. Tuna good episode of strictly dumpling bad episode of Sean in the wild
love when my fave people collab. love u guys.
Great to see both Mike & Sean together!!
My two favorite TH-cam food channels together!
Yay, I love Mike Chen! So glad you did this collab!
Oh hey it's Mike
This is a dream come true. Two of my favorite youtubers together!
mikey "mr. steal yo show" chen lol he took over this episode
the host is being respectful and didn't talk too much... since he didn't know much about dim sum.
"Mr. Steal Your Show" lol! Love it!🤣🤣
What?! No hot oil?
I love watching Mike's videos. Would love to do lunch with him, bc he knows his foods.
Love this and would love to see an updated one too !😊
I never thought you'd bring one of the best youtubers on here! :D This collab is genius.
Mike on HotOnes!!!! Like if you agree
Expected so much more from this.
Sean doesn't get enough credit. He's a pro at getting on the same wavelength as the person he's with and asking the right questions that get the conversation going. I always come out of these videos feeling like I've learnt something which isn't always the case with this style of video.
you have probably the best channel! you hit up every youtuber i watch! great content as always!
Come for the Hot Ones, stay for the Sean in the Wild.
Come for Mike Chen, stay for...Mike Chen! Lol
Please do a hot ones with mike!!!!
you mean a typical meal for mike ? he literally douses it everything with hot oil ..EVERYTHING
yup
it wouldn't bother him
ermagherd, Sean is collaborating with all of my favorite channels
I'm so glad you did this video, I've been a sub of Mike for a long time. I love his channel. This is a good one.
It amazes me that TH-cam is breeds great content!
That intro music though 👌🏻
Love love love this collaboration
Yay, all my favorite cross overs. Gotta love sean.
Two of my top bro crushes in the same video. Both of these guys are top tier. Great video... but where's Mikey's hot oil? It's weird to see him eat food without it being smothered in red chili oil.
This is not a show for the poor and hungry
International Observer Hahahaha, Dude!? Lmfao
Nom wah is actually pretty cheap. 20 dollars get you stuffed.
do it at home
No poor people eat dim sum. This is a standard way of Chinese saying.
clarissa krigger 20$ for a 1-person meal? im gonna puke. chinese food is so fucking nasty
My favorite thing about food in general ..... besides the company, hospitality and the enjoyment of fully embracing cultures is how you could travel across an area and order the same thing everytime ...... will never taste the same. When one cooks, they put a part of themselves into it and its different everytime
this is two of my favourite channels combined!
Cool Mike Chen..... Awesome!
Sriracha, no longer no big deal. It's now chicken feet, no big deal.
Seriously, watching Mike Chen eat is one of my favorite TH-cam past-times!
Two of my favorite people on earth together ❤ 😍
I'm so frigging happy
The Jackie Chan of food
>>>/pol/
The Raconteur this!
mocking how people look is racist, and repetition is boring. you are just annoying everyone.
International Observer 😂😂😂😂
You really have allot of time....
WHATTT, never thought I would be the one saying this one day....
I have never clicked on a video so fast. Sean Evans and Mike Chen are two people who whenever I see their name in a title, I watch the video all the way through.
YEESSSS! Two of my favorite food youtubers!!
So what did you guys do with the last dim sum?
You didn't even link his TH-cam
So happy to see this collab!!
Mike Chen and Sean together. My favorites.
When you're uploading these, could you start adding the guest's channel and such to the description, or as an annotation? Thanks! Great shows by the way!
I watch strictly dumpling so ik who it is, but I'm laughing because most people clicked because they probably thought it was Jackie Chan 😂😂lol
+International Observer
What is it with you and your obsession with his " flat fucking face"?
this is racist man... just get to know more people then you'll finally come to realize that everyone looks different...
what's wrong with these people, racist af
International Observer lol I'm Asian so yeah I can confirm that
confirm what? him calling Mike the C word(which is obviously racist)? Any normal person can tell he's not Jackie Chan, people who have to observe again and again has problem with their eyes, or they're just dumb and ignorant, or just being racist. just check his other comments, he's insulting Asian people from all aspects, mocking how Asian people look. That's so stupid and disgusting.
Two of my favorite people! I've loved Sean's Hot Ones sauce, and made and loved Mike's hot chili oil. Thanks for another great episode!
Two of my favorite TH-camrs! I was waiting for Mike to teach Sean how to eat soup dumplings.
Expected hot oil reference... did not come 😞
Shoelander23 I know right. lol
damon818 Mike is a SAVAGE he doesn't care.
I'm still waiting on a hot ones episode with Mike!
My two favorite food channels put together!!!!! Ughhhhhh
I love it when two of my fav TH-camrs get together!
Mike Chen can take down some spices I think he would make an interesting guest on Hot Ones.
this colab was great love what sean does
I love both these extraordinary guys!!
I'm a simple person I see mike chen i click faster than the flash can run
The flash can run so fast he goes back in time impregnates mikes mom and comes back to have dinner with his son.
Meanwhile here is me never heard of him and 3y later
