Hong Kong and Singapore never fails in emptying your pockets 😂
Prices are kinda 3 times higher than they should be..😅
ehh imagine living thr... its a nightmare (exprienced firsthand..)
@@etnamecul cost of living is also at least 3 times higher than many closeby countries.
It's alright to empty pockets in singapore cuz they produce quality and top notch asian delicacies. The people are very kind and friendly too! Worth revisiting because of how diverse the asian food they serve there. However, In hk most of them are rude and give you stink eye. Then serve you with the most mid-tasting asian cuisine. You can't even eat in peace. You will get side comments and insults outta no where. Doesn't matter if u are white, black, or brown. If you do not look asian enough for them you get judged from head to toe. It's ironic that the ones who treat you good are not even locals but workers that work there from other countries.
not like Las Vegas !!
I like how sonny reports the cooking like a hockey match
My uncle used to smoke and cook at the same time and he said cigarette ashes are just Navy pepper😂
"Navy pepper" Thank you for the new vocabulary :D
My grand pa said it too hahaha
nice
"It'll put some hair on your chest" 😂😂
"Shining, shimmering, splendid..." I love it when Sonny quotes Disney princess movies 😆
Thank you for coming to HKG & letting the world know that we still have our special local food!! Unfortunately while we appreciating the Dai Pai Dong, the government stopped issuing new Dai Pai Dong Licenses. Moreover, some of the locations need to be rebuilt to deluxe housing or office buildings! that’s why you said it only a few remaining…..
I scrolled through the comments to find an answer as it made me curious why they were dying off and you kind of answered my question. I'm still curious, why did the government stop issuing licenses? Because they want to develop the land or....?
@@cydonia3167 Development for rich is one big reason ( u know HK basically don't have enough land) but the other is the hygiene and health issues that come with these, as delicious as they may seem, the environment as you can see its outdoors, so you can imagine the hygiene issue (there is no way u will walk out without seeing a roach or mouse there...) One more reason is the security risk, these tai bai tong tend to be a place for the triad society to mingle, especially at night. They are just my subjective and from experience opinion, the major comes back down to development so
Virginia was AWESOME! Also, the 1st spot looked AMAZING!
Bc it was barely Hong Kong street food idek what that was
Shes definatly cute and adds to the episodes. Good job editors , we all know you make the show more perfect.
si senor. but sonny always finds cute guests. the half Canadian girl was super cute too and funny.
What? She looks like she has an extra chromosome, and should be competing in the special olympics.

He often has cute guests but she's not one of them.
The first kitchen could use a little cleaning. There is old grease and other things dripping onto plates with food
Sonny is the man...been watching for years and still going strong. Keep it up bro
love this series
Jimmy O Yang’s description of a Chinese chef was pretty accurate lol
Absolutely amazing entertainment, great energy and always hilarious with your videos, down to earth individual 💙💙
Your culinary event is very interesting...and your food choices are appetizing🎉😊
Love Virginia! I subscribed to her today ! Sonny has the most amazing co-hosts! The most amazingly side kick is Oro!
Her channel name?
Finally back in HK!!! Waited since 2019 for since😍
I love Hong Kong 🇭🇰 such a unique Place with amazing beaches and nature as well as city 😊
lol this is like trying to hit $100 on food trucks in NYC, this is too easy
I just absolutely love this channel! Sonny not only are you a fantastically entertaining and educational host ,your co- hosts are so likable and fun! I end up following most of them as well!
Love these no frills food. Absolutely delicious
$100 is not really enough in HK
yeh he barely ain't anything , do they have a higher salary there than other asian contries? looked overpriced
@@dio1018I live in the UK, and I’d say HK has higher salary than the UK
@@dio1018they have higher salary level but at the same time house price and living cost are crazy high there
@@norrieh HK living condition is sh*t, but yeah, UK salary is pretty low in developed country
When you were summing up the prices at the end it sounded like you're on speed or I am slow. I had to listen to it twice to make sure my phone wasn't on fast mode
This video is like a culinary adventure that's making my mouth water. The way he explores the street food scene in Hong Kong is so captivating. I can practically taste the flavors through the screen! 🍜🥢
Sonny you've great sense of humor 😂😂
I really enjoy watching your videos
Such a fun challenge, spending $100 USD of Sonny’s money 🤑 😂Thanks for the fun times 🥳
@@kayflip2233 sonny needs to clarify on the title
@@kayflip2233 Sonny said "American dollars" right at the start of the video.
If he goes back I think it would be cool to bring him to a late night dim sum spot and let him enjoy the beautiful chaos :) plus, its a LOT cheaper
- Yes, I wouldn't mind spending his money as well ! 😄🤑💰💸💳🧾
Love watching this while eating mcdonaldsn
New camera? Didn't watch your videos for some time, but this is looking goood!
The phone! Probably lighting makes a different too
so happy to see u in HK! love the sharing you are doing around the City, i think aside from the local HK food, it would be interesting to actually try taste some non-local food and give your opinion, as u know, HK is full of cuisines from around the world! Could compare if they are fusion or authentic haha! i recommnad trying my fav HK snack - cold noodles ! they come in little packets and choose ur toppings! and scause! yum yum
Sonny, you are so funny. You crack me up on every episode. I love watching your videos. Thanks.
As someone who absolutely loves Asian cuisines in general and specifically Chinese cuisine - these videos are awesome. It's a shame the street food scene in Hong Kong is dying out, from what I understand when China took over control from the UK, they didn't change rules about street vendors much until quite recently it seems. Such a shame to see so many great stalls go away, but it's good seeing there are still some top-notch spots for the people to enjoy. All that being said, the last time I was in China was around 2003 or so, and I also went to Hong Kong for a couple of days. I'll just say this as a fan of Chinese food in general - that might have been the best 5 days of food I've ever had save for having Texas BBQ and pastrami at Katz's Deli in NYC (where I grew up after all). There are few words that can describe how good real deal Chinese dishes can be. Chicken or Beef chow fun is my absolute favorite food in the world, and actually eating it in a restaurant that specializes in Cantonese food and chow fun etc. was mind blowing. I'll never forget how good it was (and it was super cheap also back then). So yeah, videos like this just remind me of those days, how good the food can be there (though you do have to be careful lol) and how awesome it is Sonny and people like him get to travel around and eat this amazing food. Sorry for the giant wall of text and my stupid ramblings about years gone by.
Good to see her again ! I follow her but it’s been awhile. Personally I thought the last place was a little expensive for street food
Virginia is a fantastic co-host/guide. I'm sure a lot of people would enjoy seeing her on here more often!
Yep, saw her on this channel 4 years ago.
Been following both you and Virginia since god knows when, glad you guys were able to collaborate!
Their first collaboration was 4 years ago.
Chicken and eel for 42 dollars? Huh? How does that make sense?
It dosent
He's a tourist
HK is VERYYY expensive, i wouldn’t doubt it
hongkong ripping people off
small piece of spam, one egg and piece of bread for 4 dollars make sense either? or egg and instant ramen for 5?
I don't like that Virginia is not eating with you. I'm used to your tour guides eating with you
yeah that was odd
Sonny said she is an oficial tour guide. There might be rules about eating with the tour guests.
@@oldnoob1917What rules? 😂😂 you can’t be serious
sewer oil
She didn’t like how filthy the food places are 😂
Hong Kong street food, hard to go wrong with that!
Wow can’t believe you’re visiting Hong Kong! Really enjoy your videos and wondered when you’d enjoy our local food. Welcome! Really hope you’re having a great time here. 👍
Haha looks like my other message is gone? Anyway I am sure you already done a ton of research but I highly recommend Sing Kee Seafood Restaurant. One of the best seafood places I’ve been to. They are always full though so just in case you couldn’t get a table, feel free to try any near seafood restaurant around the area. They usually never disappoint. Anyway just my two cents. 👍
Will have to settle for my bag prawn crisps, (shrimp chips)- they tastes exactly the same 😉😛
Coming back to HK in October can’t wait miss it so much
The way Sonny asks Virginia explain... made my day😂
Sonny....you make me laugh !...LOVE the video
Nice sneaky Aladdin reference thrown in there
Love the thumbnail of Sonny holding a burning $100 bill. Made me laugh!
Yay another $100 dollars food challenge
Hi quick question I’m new here, are they using HK$100 or US$100? Thank you.

@@oldcowbb 😂😂😂
That APounst Its Bonus😂😂😂
I love it how the man is cooking with his singlet 😅 classic Asian love it! #proud2beasian ❤
theres a restaurant/ cafe literally next to bing kee, called cheung sing. Thats the real spot for legendary food
HK is an amazing place, you can find all different country food here!! enjoy your stay & eat more!! I wish I can go back to HK and just eat...
It's true that due to health regulations a lot of DPD's have disappeared, but there's also a lot of them that have moved indoors into the upstairs Cooked Foods floors at wet markets/civic halls (sometimes those include indoor sports centers and public libraries). like Bowrington street wet market from last video's cart noodles, or Electric Road Municipal Services Building where there's Fu Bo Seafood. I wanted to say Tung Po but they moved from Java Road Wet Market to some 2/F of commercial building in Wanchai.
The first meal filled me up.. lol
So for the 1st stall, pretty sure the protein in the egg is New Zealand corned beef. It's a fairly common omelette in HK. It is nothing like the corned beef in America.
Stall number 1.looks great .2.year right about that plate with the different meats.3.the pot had flavor, and a lot of spice.
she doesn't know that got me hahahah
Is the reused oil… ok to use?
The table at 9:02 leisurely drinking Penfolds from plastic cups 😋
I am definitely still half asleep. You said some of the stalls serve pigeons and my mind immediately went them actually severing the pigeons a meal.
Sunny you should go to singapore with all the food stands over there
I think I have seen the first location on Korean show return of Superman when Park Jooho ( soccer player) took his half asian/ Caucasian kids out for breakfast in Hong Kong.
12:13 "She's doesn't know"😂😂😂
why rotate the bread when toaster, toasts both sides?
are you ever going to mainland china? theres so much and so good food to explore
To be fair, a bunch of shops say at Jardine's Bazaar are basically serving street food - its just a basic shop coverage on it.
Great participation factor...sweet
Shout out to the prep chef! What would we do without em
In East Malaysia, we love Chinese food. Very delicious and satisfying.
Bro is straight relaxed @05:44
Instant noodles costs almost 6$? Damn, I love 7Eleven
Jimmy Yang was spot on about chinese chefs
Love the Aladdin reference 😂
Hey man, what are your thoughts on the "gutter oil" issue?
eat at home
Omg Sonny finally has done it!!!! 🙌 Btw why didn't you let Virginia eat along? lol
Er ok.. dpt is a restaurant that sells proper dishes and not street food. Going by your logic a 5 star michelin restaurant building also sells street food if its at the side of a street
Wake and Baking to Sonny Side.....Epic,lol
Dude it's making me hungry bro😂 I'm going to have to have spam and eggs now❤
His unique sense of humour really makes this show stand out
I was impressed when Sonny said “mise en place”
are you coming to macau?
I want to see you come to Cambodia again to review food.but I recommend you to review food in the kampongsam(Cambodia)ok?
Nowadays Spam is a luxury now, ain't now way I'm paying close to $6 each, here in Australia anyway.
Same in Canada....
Yeah it's about 5$ here are in the US
Ah man I miss Hong Kong street food was born there & I lived there until 12 years old I still go back every 3 years etc
i dont think these can rly be considered street food though. They are more like "restaurants" albeit low tier ones
From all of Sonnys videos weve seen places from India to Vietnam that claim to be open 50+ years... Yet nobody considered to maybe clean the place once 😅
Im from utah USA. Wish i knew you were in HK the last few days. We were just there for the last week and left today. Lol.
I love to live vicariously through your many food adventures, and it's amazing to watch you share so many foods from various cultures! Thank you for repping Hong Kong where my family is from! Your Cantonese pronunciation is also on point, so amazing job! I also love your on-point description of what Wok Hei means, it's spot on!
it took me 2 episodes to realize virginia's company name is a wordplay on cloudy with a chance of meatballs
Sonny I take my hat of to you for bringing the content. I do not know how you can eat at some of the places you go to!!!!
Victoria and Sonny really play well against each other's sense of humor! Good combo!
Nooooo, Sonny, don't tell us you grew up in a trailer! Please say you were photoshopped in there at 3:16. Joking---I'm in a trailer right now. 😄😄😄
Cool video bro👌🆒✌
12:12 she dosnt know 😂😂😂
You make me hungry 🤤🤤
What is the name of the last place?
You should try other neighboring asian countries next! Like Thailand or Japan again?
What's shocking is he didn't even order anything crazy like whole peking duck, abalone, snow crabs or lobster... Honkong is crazy expensive.
The guy who did the Flame Effects needs a Raise - Funny as Hell !!!!!!
"we have to eat all the eel" 😂
You really know your stuff bloke, your experience serves you well.
click bait work, congratulations on breaking the 100
funniest thing he's ever said was on rogan " my superpower is I always have diarrhea" 🤣🤣🤣💀💀💀
40$ for that? Jeeze
Please come to Georgia
Sonny....Hong Kong is Spicy. When can you show us ALASKAN STREET FOODS !!!
