Oh man. I grew up in Cabra and Red Lea is still a memory from my childhood. Thanks for the great video. I live in Japan now, so being able to see the foods I ate growing up gives me so much nostalgia.
@@SydneyFoodBoy I'm currently teaching at a private elementary school. If you ever make it to Nagoya, give me a yell and I'll show you the local food joints.
I don't live in Sydney now, but I lived in and around Cabramatta for the best part of 30 years. An absolutely awesome place. My wife and I could eat breakfast, sharing one meal, in BKK plaza for $13. Freshest seafood was in the alley between John St. and the multi-story carpark. The only downside was trying to find parking - get there before 08:30 or win the lotto.
I grew up in Cabra and this video brought back so many good childhood memories. Loved how you described Red Lea chips, a pork roll and sugar cane as the holy trinity! So true! 😂 Growing up my mum would cook every day and made everything from scratch, but the only times we ever got “take out” for dinner was the BBQ meats from that shop in the alley! Can’t believe they’re still around! Love your content, keep up the great work mate!
Thanks so much for watching Jenna! I still think of this video as a little dedication to all the kids who grew up in Cabra like us 😁 glad it brought you back some memories!
This video popped up in my recommendations. Great potential and I actually enjoyed the content. It has been decades since I ventured out to Cabra. Good luck with your youtube channel. Love your work.
I honestly love your videos! . It would be great if you do budget vids in other suburbs in Sydney. I miss cabra and I definitely coming back soon ! Keep up the good work, it's very entertaining:)
Thanks so much Julie 😁 it's on my radar! I like doing the cheap eats because I can actually afford it LOL so that means a lot of others can go out and try the foods themselves!
Me and my family went to Cabramatta following this video and we had the best time thank you so much for making this guide. We ended up going to 4 places you mentioned :))
Great video mate, 20 years ago when I was 20 we used to walk from Smithfield to Cabra to get all the yummy treats, glad to see the place is still the bomb! Was pretty dangerous back then but looks OK now, I'd love to go back and do the walk again some day, thanks for the great vid, just subscribed!
From a senior migrant: Just too far to go there. U can go to Burwood and Campsie instead. Food is great and cheap. Today Asian food is everywhere. When I landed in Sydney in 1966 it cost me A$1 to buy a good Chinese meal. The meal was so big that it can feed 2-3 people. I worked 1 night and earned $5. My sister had a Dim Sim restaurant in George St. China town and u had to wait for sometimes 1-2 hours before managing to get in. She made A$30,000 a week. An average worker at that time made $60 a week. Those good times are gone!! Bad luck u are under now a mean government. In those days life was really good. Houses cost $30,000 to buy. Everything is free. My school gave me a ticket to travel free and that includes bus, train, ferry. All my textbooks and stationery are free. Education is free and all the way to PhD. Medical course is free. Now it costs up to $85,000 a year. Australia is now heavy in tax, heavy in traffic fines, food is so expensive that u want to cry. U have police raptor 13 who attacked foreigners. He hated Chinese. Australians racism surfaces under Scott Morrison and Pauline Hensen and his foreign minsters. Vietnam is good now, go home. China is good now, go home.
After watching your video I *finally* went to Cabramatta for the 1st time (embarrassingly after living in Sydney for 24 years had never been before) - the Pandian & Coconut waffles are awesome! Tried quite a number of different dishes at several places - I shouldn’t have gone on a Friday evening though, and many of the “street food” style stalls were already closing and the Bahn Mi place with the Crispy Pork had already run out of roast pork. Thanks for the recommendations!
Wow! So awesome. Thanks so much for heading out to Cabramatta and giving some a try. Hopefully you'll find more great food in Cabra once you go again Ian!
@@SydneyFoodBoy What would your recommendation for day/time be for most food options in Cabramatta? I think my choice of Friday evening was not the best, many places were closing down.
@@SydneyFoodBoy Can i suggest a Strathfield Food Tour if you’re looking for new vid suggestions! “Butchers Buffet” all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ is one of my favourites, and “MrHotDog” right next door too. Another idea would be Ashfield: Pork Moon Cakes from “New Shanghai Workshop”, Ramen from “Kujira” and Pork Chop Burger and dumplings/buns from “QW HuaXing Bakery” (all on Liverpool Rd within 200m of each other) are some of my favourites.
I can't believe (after 35 odd years) they're still famous for their chips. I love how the Red Lea name is still there... only faded. Was there last weekend, that sign brought back good, classic memories.
Early 90’s I Loved number 37 noodle dish Hokkien me with chilli paste chilli. Just noodles chicken and bulk chow. Yum o. And that chilli was sooo good. In the food hall.And the ietnamese rolls around the corner.
Thanks for such a great video!! Cabramatta is my station I get off at to come home. Definitely has amazing food there. More places to try now!! The Hot bread place does the best rolls!!
I went to Cabramatta today and tried a few of your recommendations. 👍 The place is so vibrant. If not for your videos I wouldn't have known they were there. BTW already planning another trip out there again next week... couldn't fit all your recommendations in one day.
YesSiRr!! Bloody ouaFF!! Lol!! 100%👍👍👍& suBB! Gotta support the Locals!! Haha! Mate that was very interesting, informative and very entertaining! Awesome stuff! Love it when TH-cam gets it right wit the Recommendations. Look forward to More adventures... Thanks for sharing Big Fella.. Stay Bless and Stay Safe out there!!
I grew up living around Cabramatta and just recently moved to North Sydney. If I were to buy everything shown in this video from where I'm living now, it'll cost me roughly $40-$50. Gosh, I miss living around Cabramatta.
Was thinking about all my Polynesians and Hawaiians out there when I asked that question! I remember eating heaps of traditional taro dishes when I was visiting my family in Hawaii
@@SydneyFoodBoy well if you wanna do a Polynesian food video haha. Please check out Mamas poly soulfood - in Minto across from the train station, and also Heckenberg has some poly street food they sell also the owners of Mama Phan own a shop in heckenberg that specialise in Polynesian food - also check out Lakemba - for Tongan and cook island food and lastly - Palms pacific shop - either in bidwill or glenquarie. And chakas bbq.
@@SydneyFoodBoy you can try Sapasui - chopsuey, Keke puaa - pork buns like the chinese pork buns, luau & & taro & oka. i also forgot to mention a fijian restaraunt called Island Feast - in warwick farm - that specialises in traditional underground cooking = Umu - fijian style. Mamas poly soulfood - is home to lots of these things if your interested in trying whatever - as well as pies & famous donuts.
Noted. I've been so keen to try that stuff in Sydney but had no idea where! Thanks for the tips 🙂 I'll probably do some writing about it on Instagram before I do a TH-cam video about it!
Great vid, Kev! Love how much you got for $20! I grew up eating Cabra Red Lea hot chips and I am much older than you! 😝 It is definitely an institution. keep up the great reviews, one day I will get to one of your recommendations! , Lien 🤩
Would love it if you could go through the best places to eat in each of the different suburbs on a budget. Im from Newcastle and will definitely go and get those egg tarts . Thanks heaps!
I remember always like to eat Chicken rolls bread at the bread store outside Woolworths and near Cabramatta Station. Suddenly see your channels and really miss the days I studied there. Hope after covid I can visits Cabra again to get back my 2 years time there.
Recently discovered your channel, Kevin. Love it, and good on you for appreciating your cultural heritage. 7:00 Brains, brawn, beauty AND bao. Doesn't get any better :-)
Good vid buddy...I visited Cabramatta from Mel the weekend before last. I literally went to most of the places you went to in this vid. Everything is so cheap compared to Mel.
@@SydneyFoodBoy The dumpling one and the first shop. Didn't realise they did the fried banana and beef jerky, so will definitely hit that shop try next time I'm in Sydney!
@@SydneyFoodBoy Will def give it a shot next time round for sure! Started watching your other vids too. Good recommendations around Sydney. My friend in Sydney sucks with his recommendations last time I was there! I'll start using you as my Sydney food guide from now on! LOL
Loved the video! My Mrs is Thai and we always hit up the first Thai/Lao place for papaya salad (spicy!). There’s also a great place in the plaza for Thai sweets; sticky rice, custard etc. Side note: the avocado shakes in Cabra and amazing
Omg so nostalgic! Used to live in Canberra and drive up to Sydney all the time. I remember the chicken chips and chips from that chicken store. So delicious. I also remember we used to get mee ka tang kreung somot from a restaurant somewhere in Cabramatta but when we went back a while ago it was closed down :( Great video though, will definitely hit these spots whenever I’m back in Sydney!
I grew up in cabra long before any asian food shops, stardust hotel, old brick pub, sooty old railway bridge from steam trains, john st was dirt road back then, departed cabra in 1970 never returned
Singaporean Hainanese fella coming across your vlog! Oh and I speak Teochew because that's my Mom's dialect group (can't speak Hainanese though). Love the wide variety of food featured here. Subscribed to your channel instantly! Hope to visit Sydney after the pandemic!
Hello! Thanks for subbing. I have family in Singapore, i've always thought of living there short term. I did a big food trip there in 2019 and it was the inspiration for my blogging and vlogging 🙂
EYYY Kaysone! My favourite place to get fruit shake! Try my combination. Large fruit shake Jack fruit, watermelon, lychee, honeydew or avocado, soursop or kiwi.
I almost stopped watching the vid - it was torture to see all that great food and I live in Shellharbour Village - very beige food. I wonder how far Pyrmont is to Cabramatta - I am moving at some point. Even China Town in the Haymarket has gone south. Thank God for all this rich tapestry of culture and food that has come to Australia
Remember when I visited Sydney in 2018 that place I was looking for. I know those good food to eat and once the mall is in closing time price are in discount. Maybe when I return I will visit that place.
Oh lordy, Red Lea chips + maximum amount of the red salt was such a tradition after school. They also fry the chips to an extreme crisp which I really love.
I always have the basil and sprouts with some actual chilli, then sa te on the side and hoisin with chilli sauce. Always get the special pho. I have come to love tendon. I went to one place and the tendon was so soft it melted! Mmmmm
Went there on Christmas day 2008 was definitely the place to be so much food on offer in a small place compared to the rest of Sydney being closed Love ya cabbie
Hey champion, love your stuff. Would be nice to see you hit the fringes of Cabra as well. Canley Vale has always had some great little joints and Canley Heights has kicked off since they added the automatic dunny and cameras. The Lao food in Canley Heights is to die for and the Cafes are great for people looking for something to do at night. Keep up the good work.
Hey Mate, you mentioned a place in Canley Vale that’s your go-to for Bun Bao, do you mind sharing your recommendation? Amazed that I’ve only been to the pandan waffle (my must have whenever I go cabra) and can’t wait to go again to try all these places out. Thanks for the vid!
There's not too many options! You've got the khmer Chinese food in Cabramatta, Malay teo chew food in places like Campsie. It's be so cool to bring more awareness to it as a food cuisine!
Man knows what he's talking about. 100% agree that is the best pork roll shop around. Red lea chips guaranteed. Don't forget the Pate Chaud from AA Bakery too bro. Bonus points for the teo chow Gu Gai Kueh!
I love this video you did an amazing job with the cheap eats A&A bakery❤️ is one of my favourite and the other picks are the best too ..Hope you do more on Cabramatta food and cheap eats too ..x👌😊
PART 2 OF BEST CHEAP EATS IN CABRAMATTA IS OUT NOW GUYS! Watch it here: th-cam.com/video/2Dye01ElGpc/w-d-xo.html 😁
Craving the red Lea chips now
Me all day 😜
Absolutely Red Lea chips with paprika
Loads of praprika seasoning. I remember it was so popular they took the shaker away and you had to be in the know to ask for it.
LOL! I remember that happening too 😂
honestly same 🤣
3:15 Gu Chai Gue!! A classic traditional Teochew delight! And yes pan fried is the way to go!!!
Yes!!! We on the same vibe Hayden 😜
Yessss and don’t forget the sweet fish sauce with it!!
Oh man. I grew up in Cabra and Red Lea is still a memory from my childhood. Thanks for the great video. I live in Japan now, so being able to see the foods I ate growing up gives me so much nostalgia.
From Cabra to Japan!!! That's amazing!! What are you doing over there? I'm so jealous!

And to believe their were gangster there

Great minds think alike 😜 thanks heaps for watching!
Brooo solid work in front and behind the camera, hope you keep making more vids like this
Thanks bro! Cameraman is a king. I'll try, no promises 😅
I grew up living around Cabramatta and just recently moved to North Sydney. If I were to buy everything shown in this video from where I'm living now, it'll cost me roughly $40-$50. Gosh, I miss living around Cabramatta.
Not a bad place to live though! The views must be nicer where you're at! Everyone who grew up in Cabra knows the go though 😜
I'm Polynesian so taro is always savoury for us. Love this video and love Cabra, this has given me new spots to try

Mamas poly soulfood - is home to lots of these things if your interested in trying whatever - as well as pies & famous donuts.

Would def have thrown in an avocado shake If budget permitted 😜 and yeah I know the place! Awesome Thai lao food there inside
Thank you.. . This is so informative. The food is definitely cheaper at Cabrammata.
I ll look for the spots you recommended.
Thank you to Bryan too
How amazing is Brian! Thanks heaps for watching 🙂
Omg so nostalgic! Used to live in Canberra and drive up to Sydney all the time. I remember the chicken chips and chips from that chicken store. So delicious. I also remember we used to get mee ka tang kreung somot from a restaurant somewhere in Cabramatta but when we went back a while ago it was closed down :( Great video though, will definitely hit these spots whenever I’m back in Sydney!
If you ever find that Mee again, let me know!

EYYY Kaysone! My favourite place to get fruit shake!
Try my combination. Large fruit shake
Jack fruit, watermelon, lychee, honeydew or avocado, soursop or kiwi.
Will def try! My usual combo is strawberry, lychee, rockmelon, jackfruit
I almost stopped watching the vid - it was torture to see all that great food and I live in Shellharbour Village - very beige food.

You're always one of my favourite commenters Hailey 😂 some of the food joints at the Gong do pretty well!
Just down the train line pyrmont... 46 mins tops
About an hour by train. Light rail to central. Then train to Cabramatta station.
Yessssss!! Always a must @ Cabra - Banh mi & Red Lea chips!!
You know the go 😜
Remember when I visited Sydney in 2018 that place I was looking for. I know those good food to eat and once the mall is in closing time price are in discount. Maybe when I return I will visit that place.
Hope you do!
This made me salivate even more during my dinner!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great video Kev & Brian!!!
Thanks Familia 😁
Hi Kev, not sure if you remember me but I enjoy watching your videos and seeing your adventures on insta. Keep it up ☺️
Hey Joanne! Of course I do. Hope you're doing well 😁 thanks for watching!
I don't wanna click "like", I wanna click "love" ! great informative video :)
So talented... Weird and strange bubble tea reviews would be good. I'll use it in a lecture!
Dr Khuu! How are you? Hope you've been well 😁
My favourite meal in Cabra is salad(with egg/chilli) roll from Vinata's!!
Vinata's does great bread too!
@@SydneyFoodBoy yes, I like their bread. Cabra definitely has a lot to offer!!
Rea Lea chips with the Sweet Paprika and chicken salt combo still can’t be beat!!!
100%! I have no idea if the red powder is paprika LOL I've just always called it that 😂
@@SydneyFoodBoy I actually asked my local Red Lea in Rouse hill what it was a few years back. 😂
@@djlorman LOL!
Red Lea chicken × Chips is the 💣 Bro...NICE vlog!
Love those foil bags they ya,make it more special ..teenage memories
Hi Kevin, I love your channel. Could you please show larger writting of the places you visited on the screen. Cheers.
Thanks Tommy! I'll keep it in mind for next time. I'm trying to work on better font
Great atmosphere, I might visit the cultural festival and Drop in to the noodle bar
Enjoy!
I used to live in Sydney, so watching this makes me so homesick!! great video!!
Thank you so much! Come home soon 😜
Oh lordy, Red Lea chips + maximum amount of the red salt was such a tradition after school. They also fry the chips to an extreme crisp which I really love.
LOL yes the high school tradition. We grew up the Same way 😜
Hey Kev, I love the garlic chives vege buns. Do you know where else in Sydney sell the garlic chives beef buns? Thanks again for making the video.
Not sure about beef, but you might find some through Asian communities (e.g. wechat). I don't know myself though!
Looking forward to hitting cabramatta. Great show mate. Just subbed..
Thanks so much Gav!
Ahh the best trio: sugarcane juice, red Lea chips and pandan waffle. Didn’t know stuff was still under $1 these days, wow.
Would easily pay double the price for them. A great reminder to get out there and support your locals!
I follow you on insta and subscribed for these cheap eats, what a fun challenge! You hit my hotspots!
Thanks for subbing Monique 😁😁 this one's been in the plans for months, glad you liked it!
I always have the basil and sprouts with some actual chilli, then sa te on the side and hoisin with chilli sauce. Always get the special pho. I have come to love tendon. I went to one place and the tendon was so soft it melted! Mmmmm
Went there on Christmas day 2008 was definitely the place to be so much food on offer in a small place compared to the rest of Sydney being closed
Love ya cabbie
Cabra is beautiful isn't it!
Hey champion, love your stuff. Would be nice to see you hit the fringes of Cabra as well. Canley Vale has always had some great little joints and Canley Heights has kicked off since they added the automatic dunny and cameras. The Lao food in Canley Heights is to die for and the Cafes are great for people looking for something to do at night. Keep up the good work.
Hey Guy! Im actually from Canley so definitely on the agenda one day mate 🙂🙂 thanks heaps!
Thankyou sydney food boy đã chia sẻ món ăn vặt ở đường phố cabramatta.
This is a great playlist of Cabra eats!!!
Thanks Phillip 😁
Hey Mate, you mentioned a place in Canley Vale that’s your go-to for Bun Bao, do you mind sharing your recommendation?
Amazed that I’ve only been to the pandan waffle (my must have whenever I go cabra) and can’t wait to go again to try all these places out. Thanks for the vid!
Banh bao shop or Henry steam buns, both in Canley heights!
@@SydneyFoodBoy thanks for the quick reply! I’ll check them out 🙃
Kakinang!! I'd be interested to see more videos about your experience with teochew cuisine and culture in Sydney.
There's not too many options! You've got the khmer Chinese food in Cabramatta, Malay teo chew food in places like Campsie. It's be so cool to bring more awareness to it as a food cuisine!
Agreed! Would love to see more videos on teochew cuisine!
@@CT-xv1bc will keep it in mind! Love to support our families and heritage 🙂
Best thing in Kaysone is the Som tam Lao style and the pork sausages! The best!
Absolutely bro! Might do a whole video on the shop one day 😜
@@SydneyFoodBoy awesome. Been going there for years. It’s a hidden gem.
Definitely will follow your recommendation..love ur video
Thank you Julia 🙂
Man knows what he's talking about. 100% agree that is the best pork roll shop around. Red lea chips guaranteed. Don't forget the Pate Chaud from AA Bakery too bro.
Bonus points for the teo chow Gu Gai Kueh!
Thanks heaps for watching bro! Oh man the pate chaud, I was deciding whether to get that or the banh bao for the video LOL
