00:00:04.475 --> 00:00:06.475
It's Hong Kong Breakfast

-on the top 10
-Yeah

-It's close to where we live
-Yes

12
00:00:19.225 --> 00:00:19.975
So, we thought it'd be worth checking out

13
00:00:19.975 --> 00:00:22.325
It's not the main branch, actually

14
00:00:22.675 --> 00:00:24.675
but let's try it and

15
00:00:24.675 --> 00:00:26.325
see how it compares to the original

16
00:00:26.325 --> 00:00:27.825

[Almost there]

18
00:00:28.825 --> 00:00:30.525
It's just

The menu seems

23
00:00:36.725 --> 00:00:38.575
similar to what we see

24
00:00:38.575 --> 00:00:39.625
at regular cha chaan tengs

25
00:00:39.625 --> 00:00:41.625
-No, it's not similar at all 
-Really?

-and Laksa too
-Century egg

Oh, century egg with cilantro

33
00:00:53.925 --> 00:00:55.725
So the noodles are the same

34
00:00:55.725 --> 00:00:57.575
But the bases are a bit different

35
00:00:57.575 --> 00:00:58.475
That's what makes this place unique

Why are they so kind?

I'm really flabbergasted

00:01:33.275 --> 00:01:33.975
That's why

00:01:33.975 --> 00:01:36.275
I asked if I can do less sugar

Tomato base is

192
00:04:35.624 --> 00:04:36.324
really hard to try

193
00:04:36.324 --> 00:04:38.124
-But it's my first time eating it today 
-Yeah

194
00:04:38.124 --> 00:04:39.824
It tastes better than I thought

195
00:04:39.824 --> 00:04:40.624
[First experience]

196
00:04:40.624 --> 00:04:41.674
You haven't tried it?

197
00:04:41.674 --> 00:04:42.974
I haven't tried it, I was scared

198
00:04:43.774 --> 00:04:45.524
If you're new to tomatoes

199
00:04:45.524 --> 00:04:47.124
I think it'll be perfect to eat here

200
00:04:47.474 --> 00:04:48.924
It tastes good, but it's still worth it

201
00:04:49.524 --> 00:04:50.974
I’m surprised by the size of the meat too

202
00:04:50.974 --> 00:04:52.374
Look at the fish tofu inside this

203
00:04:52.374 --> 00:04:53.124
-I know right 
-There’s a lot

204
00:04:53.124 --> 00:04:54.424
I ate one already by the way

205
00:04:54.424 --> 00:04:55.874
Is there someone out there eating all this?

206
00:04:55.874 --> 00:04:56.774
In the morning?

207
00:04:56.774 --> 00:04:57.424
I guess so

208
00:04:57.424 --> 00:04:59.224
[Big eaters]

209
00:04:59.224 --> 00:04:59.924
First of all

210
00:05:00.724 --> 00:05:01.974
From what I see

211
00:05:02.824 --> 00:05:04.524
Koreans don’t really eat

212
00:05:05.224 --> 00:05:07.274
macaroni as a soup

213
00:05:07.274 --> 00:05:07.874
[Strong denial]

214
00:05:07.874 --> 00:05:08.874
-No way*2 
-Why are you so

215
00:05:08.874 --> 00:05:09.924
repelled by this idea?

216
00:05:09.924 --> 00:05:11.074
Because I never had one before

217
00:05:12.024 --> 00:05:12.874
I told you about the soup already

218
00:05:12.874 --> 00:05:15.074
Macaroni should only go on salads

219
00:05:15.074 --> 00:05:16.974
Well, occasionally

220
00:05:16.974 --> 00:05:18.124
There’s no use of it besides that

221
00:05:18.124 --> 00:05:19.373
Honestly, macaronis are

222
00:05:20.073 --> 00:05:21.273
Nothing except for salad?

223
00:05:21.273 --> 00:05:22.373
No, I’ve never seen such a thing too

224
00:05:22.373 --> 00:05:23.673
We put it in salads

225
00:05:23.673 --> 00:05:25.223
but that’s usually made

226
00:05:25.223 --> 00:05:27.073
for birthday parties when you’re young

227
00:05:27.073 --> 00:05:28.523
Except that

228
00:05:28.773 --> 00:05:29.423

[Calculating]

230
00:05:30.373 --> 00:05:31.373
If we were to visit this place

231
00:05:31.373 --> 00:05:32.973
knowing all this

232
00:05:32.973 --> 00:05:34.873
we would’ve ordered

233
00:05:34.873 --> 00:05:36.423
one noodle and one bread

234
00:05:36.673 --> 00:05:38.323
We just didn’t expect to get this much noodle

235
00:05:38.323 --> 00:05:39.123
I expected

236
00:05:39.123 --> 00:05:40.423
an average portion of Cha chaan teng

237
00:05:41.023 --> 00:05:42.673
They say this is the best one here

238
00:05:42.673 --> 00:05:43.573
Right

239
00:05:43.573 --> 00:05:45.123
In this pineapple bun

240
00:05:45.123 --> 00:05:47.123
there’s egg, tomato

241
00:05:47.123 --> 00:05:48.123
Huh? There’s no spam?

242
00:05:48.123 --> 00:05:48.973
I guess not

243
00:05:48.973 --> 00:05:50.623
And there’s butter

244
00:05:50.623 --> 00:05:51.123
Yeah

245
00:05:51.123 --> 00:05:52.923
About ten years ago

246
00:05:52.923 --> 00:05:54.723
I visited Winlong and dined there

247
00:05:55.723 --> 00:05:57.573
I had this kind of pineapple bun for the first time

248
00:05:58.423 --> 00:06:00.173
It was very fresh to me

249
00:06:00.173 --> 00:06:02.123
Then this originated from this place I assume

250
00:06:02.323 --> 00:06:03.373
Absolutely

251
00:06:03.373 --> 00:06:04.773
I'm not sure if they did

252
00:06:04.773 --> 00:06:06.823
But at that time

253
00:06:07.073 --> 00:06:08.073
It was really famous

254
00:06:08.073 --> 00:06:09.373
because of this

255
00:06:09.773 --> 00:06:10.973
But this is actually simple

256
00:06:10.973 --> 00:06:12.173
There's pineapple bun

257
00:06:12.173 --> 00:06:14.023
with butter and egg

258
00:06:14.023 --> 00:06:15.673
-and tomato inside
-Right

259
00:06:15.673 --> 00:06:17.873
But that was really popular

260
00:06:18.323 --> 00:06:19.723
This is actually that taste we know

261
00:06:19.723 --> 00:06:20.773
just mixed together

262
00:06:20.773 --> 00:06:21.573
-Isn't it?
-Yes it is

263
00:06:21.573 --> 00:06:22.723
Well, the egg inside

264
00:06:22.723 --> 00:06:24.173
or the bun, they are warm

265
00:06:24.173 --> 00:06:25.223
So it tastes much better

266
00:06:25.223 --> 00:06:26.823
That guy infront of us

267
00:06:27.173 --> 00:06:28.323
just ordered the noodles

268
00:06:28.323 --> 00:06:29.223
and the bun later

269
00:06:29.223 --> 00:06:30.773
But we couldn't do that

270
00:06:30.773 --> 00:06:32.823
We ordered all of them together

271
00:06:32.823 --> 00:06:33.323
Right

272
00:06:33.323 --> 00:06:33.973
Since these are

273
00:06:33.973 --> 00:06:35.473
ready as soon as you order

274
00:06:35.473 --> 00:06:37.623
So that guy was very clever

275
00:06:37.623 --> 00:06:38.673
It's still good though

276
00:06:38.673 --> 00:06:40.473
- I think the bun is really good
- You're right

277
00:06:40.473 --> 00:06:41.423
I actually

278
00:06:41.423 --> 00:06:42.973
love spam

279
00:06:42.973 --> 00:06:43.923
So I thought this tastes much better

280
00:06:43.923 --> 00:06:45.073
with spam inside

281
00:06:45.073 --> 00:06:45.823
It does have some

282
00:06:45.823 --> 00:06:47.023
I actually thought

283
00:06:47.023 --> 00:06:48.423
this had spam inside

284
00:06:48.423 --> 00:06:49.323
But now that I've tried it

285
00:06:49.323 --> 00:06:50.173
this is quite good as well

286
00:06:50.173 --> 00:06:51.323
It's good even without the spam

287
00:06:51.323 --> 00:06:52.473
It tastes much, how should I put it

288
00:06:52.473 --> 00:06:53.323
It's much lighter

289
00:06:53.323 --> 00:06:54.473
without the spam

290
00:06:54.473 --> 00:06:56.073
And spams can make it taste saltier

291
00:06:56.073 --> 00:06:57.473
because of its intense taste

292
00:06:57.473 --> 00:06:58.423
But this doesn't have that taste

293
00:06:58.423 --> 00:06:59.773
so I can

294
00:06:59.773 --> 00:07:01.173
- taste the ingredients better
- And

295
00:07:01.173 --> 00:07:02.423
this feels like a dessert

296
00:07:02.623 --> 00:07:03.850
This place is

297
00:07:03.850 --> 00:07:05.750
as expected from a restaurant that's been popular for over ten years

298
00:07:06.100 --> 00:07:07.300
has good noodles

299
00:07:07.300 --> 00:07:08.651
good buns

300
00:07:08.651 --> 00:07:10.000
and good drinks to be honest

301
00:07:10.251 --> 00:07:11.801
It's a little bit more expensive

302
00:07:11.801 --> 00:07:13.151
But here

303
00:07:13.151 --> 00:07:15.000
I think it's attractive to come here

304
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:16.151
I think I have no choice but to come

305
00:07:16.151 --> 00:07:17.951
I think there are enough conditions for that

306
00:07:17.951 --> 00:07:18.523
Yes

307
00:07:18.523 --> 00:07:20.673
The price is $ 137 (23,000 KRW) for us

308
00:07:21.201 --> 00:07:23.051
-We ordered 3 dishes 
-Yes

309
00:07:23.051 --> 00:07:25.001
-We ordered servings for 2.5 people 
-That's right

310
00:07:25.001 --> 00:07:26.252
But it's not bad

311
00:07:26.252 --> 00:07:27.352
for that, actually

312
00:07:27.352 --> 00:07:29.752
-It's about $40 or $50 each 
-Yeah

313
00:07:29.752 --> 00:07:31.052
So next time

314
00:07:31.052 --> 00:07:32.302
We'll find a better place

315
00:07:32.302 --> 00:07:34.452
and continue our trip
