I don't know if he is really exagerating the accent, because it seems like he is transposing the (strong) accent of his dialect to english. His italian accent would be as strong as the english one from his dialect I guess
@Ding Lao Bing Lao Well that's rude. I, for one, do know him, and he is genuine, full of energy, and incredibly nice. He is exactly as portrayed in the video.
@Ding Lao Bing Lao I think the person who originally commented actually knows this man in real life, lmao. That's how the comment makes it sound. It's crazy there's such angry mouth breathers out there like you that can't stop and take two seconds to comprehend what was wrote.
The Italian says, while assembling the Panzerotto "you have to be gentle, delicate" only to proceed to beat the shit out of the dough. Proper passion right there.
This is up the street from my house and I never knew about it. Stopped by after watching this. He was sold out and said "thank you for coming to see me today was fucking crazy! The youtube is driving me fucking nuts. I need more space for more food for everybody!" Can't wait to try this soon.
Really happy for him! Hope he'll grow larger in his activity, wish him best luck by an Italian fella here! If you wanna give him a smile say to him "se Parigi avesse il mare sarebbe una piccola Bari" (if Paris was on the seaside, it would be like a little Bari), I'm sure he'll appreciate; it's a way of saying from Bari made popular by an Italian actor called Lino Banfi. (You can check on Google translate for pronunciation!)
we went too, talked to a kid and asked for cannoli which they were also out of.... the boy was cute ! I assume son ? Anyway soo bummed but totally understand not having enough room for the masses ! wow;; we will be back when we are in that part pf PDX! !
You're right, there's a place near me in NYC called Via Della Pace, if you're ever in the city, the owners there are delightful people., same age group (30'a/40's) but we still act youthful sometimes haha.
Noticed this too. As an American I was like "wow, can I have what he has in the morning?" he has a certain bouncy jubilance to his energy whereas Americans are feeling a little more somber/serious these days.
@@shlomovenezia101 He maybe a sincere and lovable clown, also a genius of simple south Italian food. You, on the other hand are, a pompous ass, SHLOMOOO!
Walter is such a friendly and warm individual. This makes me so happy seeing my friend getting the recognition he deserves. He really makes the most delicious food.
@@1will2kill I take its because of the rampant corruption in other countries. Look at Mexico for example, a country rich in resources, yet under the firm grip of Cartels. A man can make his food there but wages are low, crime is rampant, and the police are corrupt.
We love Walter! Such a friendly, genuine guy. I always bring my born-in-Puglia mom here when she visits. The panzerotti are excellent-- great dough, perfectly cooked (I prefer it traditional, just mozzarella and tomato).
I have to say, coming from the part of Italy where he comes from, he's doing a pretty amazing job with the english language. Considering that people from that region are almost impossible to understand when they speak italian itself. xD
@@brianpalmer3560 same goes to the so called "Irish". They've always try and exhaust all the options of being white rather than being themselves. Oh the irony.
I love this guy! He brings a smile to my face just listening to him tell his story and I can tell he is full of passion and love that's why he is successful. He has got it down, the true wealth is how you make people feel!
OMG I used to live a block away from Carts on Foster and would visit Walter all the time, genuinely the nicest person you'll ever meet! I miss him and his amazing panzerotti!

I once hadn’t seen Walter for a few months and he noticed my dog had lost weight. He is the most valuable type of person in the world. Glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves. If you like salty fish like you should, try the one with anchovies and capers, it’s incredible.
Oh yes He is I went to Italy 10 years ago with my daughter. It was her quinceañera present and we had the best time of our lives. Such passionate and beautiful people, we felt right at home. We have so much in common and it wasn’t hard to get around. Being a native Spanish speaker we had no trouble communicating. I’d love to go back once again. Ciao bellissima Italia 🇮🇹
Got damn! I’m watching on my tv but had to grab the phone to leave this comment 😂. This dude is the KING of Italy! Even Mario’s not this damn Italian 😎. I had a lot of Italian friends in Vietnam but he takes the cake man! If I wasn’t on the east coast I’d sure love to try his food and listen to him talk 😅😅
hahaha this guys energy and knowledge is so special. i cant even imagine moving to a new country at 29, not speaking the language hell not even being on an airplane before. this guy kicks ass
Accent or not he deserve respect, he left all for a change to live far away from his family. Look how much passion put on his work. Bravo Walter questi sono i veri esempi di italiani all'estero che meritano stima💪
I enjoyed the whole entire video and story! You’re are such a real and humble man. Whom is very proud of your routs and your love for what you do! I wish I can go to Portland to tasted that delicious panzzerotti! 😋🥰😋😋😋
3:44 Brings up good memories, visiting italy, with my grandparents as a child, the People where so nice, ciao Bello ect. Specialy squeezeing your cheeks, i hated it. But looking Back. Crazy how nice people can be!
This guy, he's what makes America the best place on earth. For me he answers the question, what does it mean to be American. It's not by being entitled or by birth but by the ability to dream and work hard to earn it. America is beautiful because of people like him.
What an awesome guy with obvious Love in his heart, in his soul, and he definitely puts both in his food. Super Kudos to him and may he be blessed with much much more success!!
This man is dangerously Italian.
I feel like I visited Italy just by listening to such passion.
Viciously Italian. I feel like I need to change my nationality to Italian now out of sheer force of Italian accent overload.
I don't know if he is really exagerating the accent, because it seems like he is transposing the (strong) accent of his dialect to english. His italian accent would be as strong as the english one from his dialect I guess
@Nixon E No he's not, lol
This is how some of my family sounds.
Fred Armisen could play him
He's literally like this, he's not pretending at all. The definition of nicest person you will ever meet

Fuck ya! imma def check it out next time in the area, sounding like panzerotti for breakfast will be the move to make sure to get one
I'm 100% italian...but let me tell you...this guy Is like 200% with all the italian stereotypes put together ahahah
I feel like I need a nap after watching this.
I thought it was offensively obvious myself 💯 glad I’m not alone 😂
I have a taste for some Paleetza!!!
no offense, but your name gives it away
This guy is the literal face of white privilege.
"you have-a to be a-gentle, delicate" SMASHSMASHSMASH
Haha, I laughed so hard when I saw that
It's to seal the edges, you then trim off the extra dough before cooking.
Lmaoooo
I've always wanted to try those!!!! It's impossible to find those here in phil.
Will probably just fly myself there just eat those kind if things.
@Baku Deku Ny is a couple hours away from phil , little Italy def has some
I love how he misspelled his food truck and when they tried to fix it he said NO LEAVE IT!! I love how proud he is of who he's become!
I loved this too!
As an Italian American I notice Italians from Italy seem to keep a certain childlike joy that they never lose, I love it.

His energy makes me want to go to Portland and buy whatever he's selling.
Ditto ditto ditto!
I love how passionate this guy is about Panzerotti.
Italians do seem to be very passionate people!

The man deserves a medal for spreading happiness. I had a hard day, but just by watching his video about his great food he made my day.
"In America the dream can come true, but you have to work for your dream. You have to chase your dream. You have to earn it".
Love this guy
Why does America have this rep? And why can't it be done in other places?
In America, the Murder rate in a city like Portland can increase by more than a thousand percent within a year, but vice won’t report on that.

I became Italian after watching this video. He’s so Italian it’s contagious.
Right I’m so high rn and I started making pinched hand gestures and sticking my chin up
Maaarone!
"I talk Vrong" had me in stitches
This man is so funny and cute. All good to him
I live right by the carts on foster and hit this spot up often. He's like this all the time. The food is excellent.
bro same i live like 3 mins fron there
This man must be protected at all cost. I smiled hard when he even drove a beat up Tacoma, such a humble hard working guy 💪

What a happy soul!
I stumbled upon his cart in SE Portland a couple weeks back before seeing this video, and it was truly a great experience; really lovely.
this street food icons series is incredible
Basically a empanada, pastelito,beef patty and Cornish pasty. Amazing how different countries and nationalities have a connected food culture
So true. I firmly believe that food & sharing meals connect the world - it’s a universal language
or hand pie
I want a pastel now!?!
Fatayer
Or chiburek

The food is legit. I go here anytime I make it past 35th on the Eastside. He's just as energetic and happy in person.
What a champion. His food looks so delicious! I hope he can expand his business some day to share his passion and food with more people.
I’m from the town near his one in southern Italy, may life can bless you, keeping our beautiful region up❤️
2:40 to 2:55 those genuine, kind, friendly interactions between people always leaves a smile on my face
