What was your favorite cheap eats from the video? And let me know any cheap eats that I should check out if we do a part 2!👇
everything looked amazing 😍😍
Yummm! I can’t choose!❤
Banh cuon looked so good!!
The dosa would be my pick, but at those prices I think I could justify trying a few extra ❤
Hajime Ramen cus I spotted that gluten free ramen on their menu 🥹🎉❤ stuck with a gluten allergy and always craving noodles 😢 thanks for your video!! I can't wait to try it 🥳
Hi MeiMei & MeiMei's mom! I'm glad mom was part of this video - I adore her!
Such a tasty, well rounded tour. OMG the chewy dense noodle bowl at Paik's looked so delicious and how fun to have the live fire wok going while the customers eat?! Really adds to the experience. Loved seeing mama make another appearance too!!! Thanks Meimei, sending love 💗
Love videos with Mama Mei! Hopefully she will be in part 2 ❤
This was a great video, but got even BETTER with the appearance of your mom! I've missed her! I think it's because my mom and I would go out for meals and had so much fun together. Please more videos with your mom if she has time. 😊❤
Pinoy BBQ ATBP = AT IBa Pa (spoken like its written). "At iba pa" translated means - etcetera or more literally "and other stuff". It's a typical thing for Filipinos to do a lot of plays on words, thus "ATBP". Thanks for the video!
your mom is the cutest !! 🥹 if you find the food comforting, that's how I feel about your videos!
I love when you do videos with your mom it warms my heart . So sweet to have those memories recorded with her!
meimei do you think you could ever do at least just one vegetarian / vegan food places tour ? I’m vegetarian and I would love to see ur recommendations!!!
yes this will be greatt
OMG YES
Please 🙏🏻
Love your cheap eats videos! Extra special with Mama Meimei. She is fun to watch.
Omg I loved this video! Plus, your mom is such a great companion in your food tours! Ok, you have to try Iraklis in Santa Clara sometime soon! They just opened up, many menu items fall under $12, their food is deliiiish, AND the team there is SO friendly! Thanks for a great video! 😊
Great video! It’s such a relief to see we can still eat for $12! And who doesn’t love your mom???
I love when you include your mom, she’s so sweet! ❤
Taking notes for my next trip to South Bay.📝😋 Always a joy to see your mom too!❤️
your mom and you are so adorable, thanks for share the warm interaction
As a houseplant lover myself, I think we need a Mama Meimei houseplant tour!!!
Pinoy BBQ (barbeque) ATBP is the acronym for "At iba pa". In english it translates to 'and other things' or etcetera. I migrated to the Bay Area 20 years ago from Manila, and Pinoy BBQ ATBP remains to be my family's favorite filipino spot.
Love the surprise cameo from Mama Meimei! My favorite was the wontons! 🥟
It’s always nice when Mom makes a guest appearance. Great job!
I sub to your channel a few weeks ago and I love how energetic, funny, and entertaining you are. Makes me smile and your mother is so cute, loved how both give honest opinions about the foods you eat. BTW, I am catching up to your videos and always thumb up! Thank you for all you do!
Love all your food videos they are so fun and your positive attitude is so radiant keep on shining!❤
aw you're so sweet, thank you!! appreciate you 🥰
Love this lady! I'm so glad my sister introduced me to her channel❤
Love this! Definitely going to check out these spots 🎉
Another great video! Lovely to see mom as well! Everything looked sooo yummy! :)
As a Bay Area native, I was unaware of most of these places!! I'm so excited to go try these restaurants next time I'm in the South Bay !! 😊👍🏼
Love your videos, chill as always ❤
hi meimei!! so excited to watch another video, while studying for my math test tmr!!
Pro-tips for Huong Lan, specifically the Newark location: 1. Best banh mi is the xiu mai (meatball) with a fried egg added. 2. They make really good pho.
Love everything on the list. A lot of diversity and choices, gotta check it all out. Thx
Yessss love the South Bay tours!!!
Your videos make my day Meimei!!!
I love Bay Area focused reviews. Thanks!
Yum and double yum. Thank you for this review.

Yay!!! I love seeing mom in this video. Deeeeeelish squared ❤❤
Great picks many of the places you tried look amazing but hands down Ramen Hajime is our favorite place to go. Great to see your Mom again, always love her in your videos. ♥
Omg every place in the video looks amazing! Great video!
I love these videos I used to watch them when I was in the hospital and couldn’t eat because this mad me full im so glad I found this channel again‼️💗
aw i'm glad you're enjoying the videos!! hope you're doing well 🥰
@@feedmeimeii am thanks! keep doing what your doing I love your channel sm💗
Listening to you eat the Vietnamese Bahn Mei sandwich with the crunch made me hungry! The Dosa looked delish too!
Yay! A new vid from Meimei!!! ❤
hehe we're back with a new one!!! hope you enjoy it 🥰🥰
Thank you for all the recommendations!
I go for a gyro over a falafel most of the time. Try the falafel sandwich next time. Also, they’re really famous for their banana shake. It’s a winning combo! My six year old can’t get enough of the shake.
Thanks for this wonderful video! Looking forward to trying them all!!!!!
yay i'm so glad you enjoyed it!!! thanks for watching 🥰🥰
Great video mei ❤
YAY a new video!! love it!
hehe hope you enjoy :) thanks for watching!!
My fave Banh beo place! I used to spend a few weeks at my grandma’s in San Jose every summer and that was one of my requests every time!
I grew up near Falafel Drive In and Im so happy it still looks as good as I remember it! I love your videos. I’ve been super homesick and Im taking notes on your videos for when I get back to San Jose for a visit next year. Also, your mom is so cute! ❤
Great to see your mom in another video! The manager at Tai Kee Wonton is very kind!
Mmmm, all the different dishes looked so yummy! Glad there was some kind of representation from Hawaiʻi with the loco moco. I find it funny how local style plate lunches are called "Hawaiian food" on the continent.
The way I cheered when Mom came on. I'm so sorry to my neighbors hahahaha
i remember watching you during a quarantine, you’ve grown so much!
i love paiks and always bring people there ❤
i went to madras cafe alll the time as a kid, and i would always get the masala rava dosa (white sauce is my fav). brings back so many memories
ooo i'll have to get that one next time!! i'm craving it again already hehe. thank you for watching! 🥰🥰
Protect your mom at all costs, she’s so adorable ☺️ ❤
Early! Can't wait to watch another masterpiece!
aw you're so sweet!! hope you enjoy the video 🥰
Great video - Love seeing your Mom in your videos !! and Bird LOL
Love it when your mom joins you

My fav was that crunch from that bite with the banh mi!
Love your content!!! 🍚🧋🌁

Awww your mom is the cutest!
Can’t wait to go to the South Bay again 🥹🥹
Thank you so much cheap is exactly what I want to hear when I am craving good food but don’t want to break the bank !
How about comparing Hawaiian bbq places? There are so many... Also, my favorite Filipino restaurant is Chibog in SSF. So good.
I went to Oli Oli Hawaiian last night. Thanks to this video. I had garlic shrimp and just fried malasadas. Omg heaven !
hey!!! nice video!! Everything looks sooo delicious!! and Dang everything is such a steal😡😡😡 Anyways, I hope you can come to florida and review food in the tampa bay area! ps: tomorrow is my bday!!!
Over here in Whittier, California we have Arturo's Puffy Taco and that place was featured in Food Network... their puffy tacos are the best if you have your taco shells puffed up. Try some puffy tacos
away for college rn and watching you bite into the banh mi made me homesick :,) always went to the newark location for the cold cut one
Your mom is so cute !! Love her ❤
I love cheap eats videos!! Not all the way through yet, but idk if anything will beat bánh cuốn! 😋
yesss and that was a surprise bonus spot! so glad we decided to try it!
@@feedmeimei so cheap too!! 😯
I will go from south city to San Jose for huong lan! My mom and I love watching! Especially when your mom is in the video too 😊
Pinoy BBQ and Ramen Hijame are both my family's favorite spots!! Glad to see them both on your list!
Really interensting and useful video!
I'm glad you visited Madras cafe. One of my favorite spots. I'm actually posting this while at the restaurant
Love tai kee wonton!
Thank you for the update!!! A request, we always have such a hard time finding good places to eat after 9:00 pm. Can you one day suggest some places that you recommend?
Great tasty fun video💜
I am finally early to one of your videos
Please more, more and more cheap eats video! Would love to see cheap eats for the Peninsula. 😊
please!
Can't believe I drive by that area every day and didn't know of Paik's Noodle. Definitely will try now. Jajangmyeon looked good.
So crazy how many moons ago no one even cared about videos of food done in our great city. There always been amazing eats in SJ🤙🏾
Love your videos! Check out slices at the new location of Sliver in Fremont for part 2!
So cute to add Mom. I'll have to check out this Filipino AM place. Thanks for sharing! For watch here. 😊
Thank you for sharing of the South Bay. Most videos on KZhead are always around San Francisco. 💁🏻♀️
I've tried most of these places, they're all good, I think my fav is Egghead (I love the Eggy or Egghead salad). I also love bun beo, but it's best eaten with chicharrons and slices of fresh jalapenos (and the fish sauce of course)😋 - yummers!
Huong lan sandwich was my favorite, especially the pork banh mi you tried. Looks so delicious and crispy!
omg yesss one of my go-to banh mi spots!! 😋😋😋
Honestly the jajamyon I would try 🙌🏻
Thank you for the video. It’s hard to find good and cheap food in Bay Area restaurants now, I know where to go next time in that area!
I love your videos!!! Can you please do one but for the city of Los Angeles please!!
AHHH omg i think i saw u at huong lan sandwiches right when u were leaving but i got too scared to say hi 😭
Hi I’m early and u make everything seem yummy
we love the early squad!!! hope you enjoy the video 🥰
Love your mum.😊
I love your mom! She's soooo cute!
