Just wanted to say thanks for all you do to keep our Chinatowns alive. Boston Chinatown doesn't get the love it deserves. Really appreciate you taking the time to visit and shine a spotlight on some great places. Next time you come back, would definitely recommend hitting up some Taiwanese spots. Taiwan cafe is a personal fave.

Chinatown in Boston doesn’t deserve any love at all .. I have been working in the forty for years and Chinatown is full of disgusting unsanitary people and also restaurants .. Bostonians should all come together and get rid of Chinatown and everybody who lives in it
Born and raised in the Boston area. Chinatown has really evolved. Kept up with the times. Very proud of the new gen entrepreneurs. They just need to figure out the parking situation. Been impossible to find parking for decades.

Born and raised in Boston when they decided to remove the metered parking spots from Kneeland and Washington streets that ruined the areas businesses. A must eat restaurant is Hong King Eatery at 79 Harrison ave. The bbq pork is insanely delicious.

That banh mi sold me to go to Boston foreal. I really liked Naq hanging out with y’all. He was so honest and educated! Everything y’all ate looked insanely good! Rest In Peace, Ken 🙏🏼
Ayyyy that was me in all black across the street at 24:00 I was wondering who the fuck was shouting at drivers. Then I realized it was the Fung Bros and asked for a picture. These guys were chill af. Hope yall had a nice time here, better be rooting for the Celtics next time you come back tho hahahahaha
I live in Boston, and I’m so grateful for this video! Out of the places I’ve tried from this video, I can say they definitely deserve to be on this list! So now I know I NEED to go to the places I haven’t tried.
Boston thought its not that big compared to NYC I have had the best versions of every cuisine there... indian , ramen, chinese, nigerian food. Boston knows whatsup theres alot of good food
Great video! Naq was very enjoyable and knowledgable :)
Rest In Peace Ken!! Worked with him in college, he was always nice and humble to everyone
A must restaurant is Hong Kong Eatery @ 79 Harrison ave. Get the BBQ Pork it is insanely delicious!
Thanks Fung Bros for highlighting the food and people from Boston's Chinatown. I'm originally from the 626 where the level of Asian food is obviously unparalleled, but you gotta respect the history and how long this community has persevered on the east coast. Wish I could've run into you guys on the street. Long time subscriber and love your channel.
Thanks for featuring Boston spots!! They need more love. Banh Mi Ba Le is great too (but 15min from there)

i have been waiting for this day for so long oh my goodness
yasss supporting the local Chinatown spots! loving it! definitely check out the Egg Puff Lady, Tora Japanese Restaurant, and Sweet Waffles & Boba next time! ;)
Thank you for this! Boston's Chinatown is amazing! My friend and i will watch this so that we can decide where to eat! I always wanted to try Shojo!
YALL ARE THE BEST! THANK YOU! Who paid you to say such nice things about Boston?!? I've been watching you guys for years and can't believe you came to Boston and showed me so many cool spots!

Boston here!!!! Love this video and thanks for peaking my curiosity! Putting Chinatown Eats on my to do list for this weekend. Haven't been since pre pandemic
Only been to Boston a few times, but Penang was a favorite recommended by my in laws. Ate there 3x and were never disappointed. Boston Chinatown is full of surprises, love from the 6ix.
Awesome vid. Great to know about all these places...I’m definitely hungry after watching.
I always love watching you guys ☺️
OH MY GOSH THANK YOU!!! I work one street over from Chinatown and I love their food, but I always feel like I'm missing the "hidden gems" I had to subscribe. Thank you for making this video!!!
I’m from New Hampshire and had no idea about any of these restaurants!! Definitely taking a trip to Boston soon!!
I love WAI WAI, that’s legit my favorite place to eat at work. Glad to see Wai is getting the recognition he deserves.
Thank you for shining a little light on Boston's Chinatown!!
Thumbs up ot your energy and passion. Cheers,
This is amazing, my home! Now I really want to go back. Penang is where I had my first fried ice cream experience. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, well done guys,
Bro finally I been waiting for this for years
Love your visit at Wai Wai! OG holding it down
Chinese Flatbread Company, New Golden Gate, and Peach Farm are great spots to try if you are ever back in Boston. Love this episode!
Great video ! Next one Lowell ma Cambodian town 🔥💯
Loved your video & the way you bros. Communicate with one another as well as announce the dish in unison.I am going to try some of your recommendations.
Thanks for putting this up 👊. JO JO
I love you guys SO much!
Amazing to see you visit my hometown!!
Great show guys. All the food looked good and Boston Chinatown looked fun. Must get over sometime. Love from Ireland 💚
Boston is incredibly diverse. People dont know it because of the movies that only show one type of boston, and because people only visit downtown and college neighborhoods. Boston and the surrounding area has every type of neighborhood you could think of.

It’s super cool to see the Fung Bros’ perspective and take on Boston’s Chinatown. I’m from Boston myself and was excited to see that you guys even visited the hidden gems like Wai Wai! I couldn’t even keep up with how many 5/5 David gave. Fung Bros have done it again, sheeeeeesh
Loved this video. Showed me old favorites and new places to try. I do hope you come back and go to Peach Farm for seafood.
Nothing to say only another awesome video 😘love from🇮🇪🍀💚😘

I went and had food / ate in Boston China town all the time in childhood ( in the 1960s), it was my favorite place to go and eat . BEST ever . I loved all the shops .
Great show!
Im enjoying my Bahn Mi from that spot after appt, sooo good 👍🏼

I love Boston Chinatown lots of great memories and great food back in the 1980's my friends rented the entire top floor of a building (art studio) Chinatown it has it's own style. My friends and I were art school students and had so much fun and met lots of friendly shop and restaurant owners . Dim sum on Sunday with a case of beer under the table good times
Finally, back in Boston, baby!!!!!!!!!
Good job guys.👍
That’s watzup Boston in the house! That’s my dads favorite spot wah wah chicken and rice underground.

Love Boston China town went there weekly when I was assigned to USS Wasp CVS18. Normally Wednesday was my visit. Good food, and atomosphere especially for a young sailor with limited income.
Awesome 👍. Had many great meals in Boston China Town in the late 90 s. #1
Lanzhou Fresh Noodle in Allston is terrific and I've heard great things about Gene's Flatbread Cafe, which is on the outskirts of Chinatown. The Pho in Dorchester is truly terrific as well
Yessss Boston! Sweet waffles and boba have been a hotspot in Boston Chinatown. Too bad Quic Pic closed, that place was also a hidden gem.

Flushing in NYC (as well as Sunset Park in Brooklyn), while popular among locals and foodies, always get overshadowed by their most famous sibling in Manhattan. Honestly, Flushing kills when it comes to the food scene, and just authenticity / environment. I know you've done it already, but it deserves way more attention than Manhattan's. Literally no one ever talks about Monterey Park / Rosemead / Alhambra outside of L.A. Monterey Park has one of the highest concentrations of Chinese people and businesses in the area, but everyone always focuses on L.A.'s more underwhelming / small Chinatown in Downtown. You should cover it.
Double Chin is da bomb!
Fung Brothers wearing the New Yankee Hat!!!!! That's class!
I been going to wai wai since 2006 LOVE that spot super good and affordable!
Thanks I've been looking for Char sui
Should visit and do a segment on Eden Center down in Falls Church, VA. It's a large Vietnamese shopping center with tons of restaurants and stores to try out.
Damn, might have to visit these spots when I visit Boston 👀
I have to go to Boston now!
We have Penang in NJ and it hits hard!! So good!!
I spent 3 years in Malden near Boston, and I went to Boston every week good old memories
i havent been to wai wais in forever, i need to go again
My father used to work in Boston decades ago when Chinatown was called the 'Combat Zone' we would occasionally meet him for lunch and we went to this Chinese restaurant in the lower level of a building in Chinatown and it was fantastic. He would occasionally bring home Asian pastries, peanut rolls, and mini custards so damn good. Good times
Boston is a phenomenal City and the food offerings are tremendous.
The fact the Fung Bros are from Seattle and use umbrellas is inexcusable
