it's getting harder and harder in new york city to find cheap eats today
we're going to show you three new spots that are perfect when you're on a budget
do you think it's easy to find cheap beats in new york city it's definitely a lot of
searching a lot of digging them because they're not just like out in the open
you can find cheap eats at sit down spots you just have to get a little bit clever about it
normally when you think of korean fried chicken in new york you're immediately thinking of k-town
in midtown manhattan this could set a nice president down in chinatown i actually had
korean fried chicken last night because i'm staying in k-town super good so i'm trying to
like see how i compare the wings eight-piece original can we have the sauces on the side
a lot of people think of cheap eats in new york it's got to be five dollars this three
dollars that like you can order something for 14 bucks share it and get a really good value too
yeah we're not like stuffing ourselves with like carbs some would call this healthy mm-hmm
dude this actually came like super quick oh yeah waited like less than 10 minutes not
even i'm salivating at how crispy that looks and the smell coming and then we have the two
flavors waiting for us what was the honey sweet garlic yeah and then the sweet and spicy
crispy a little hot and hot i'm not gonna lie it was a little scary at first because
it's the sweet and spicy one but it's very light in spice so you're not gonna die it's
actually really good though kind of like a asian barbecue style taste i have no idea what to expect
here i literally found this on yelp i looked up yelp newest hottest locations this was on there
tell you what i'm impressed so far crispiness soy garlic's good i'm really curious though
about the sweet and spicy sauce i don't wanna i wanna try that this is a little food porn
i'm definitely feeling those barbecue vibes yeah i just had some other like the skin by itself even
if you don't get any of the sauces like i feel like the the breading is like very well seasoned
when word gets out about this place in chinatown it's gonna get busy come here before it gets too
busy like what i do in new york you'll love what she does in vegas when i was like thinking about
becoming a youtuber and i was like looking for inspiration i didn't want to watch like vegas
stuff because i didn't want to copy anybody so i watch new york because i love new york
and i would actually watch him kind of fangirled when he commented on my videos
i feel like jollibee would hate me for liking this
i did double dip but it's i i made sure it's the other end you're making the rules here
huh instead of uh you know i'd rather say it now than see the comments banned
you know making content that's passionate i appreciate it i try thank you so much
all right blink and you'll miss our next stop so pretending to be a food truck but it's actually
a stand oh okay oh so you didn't even go in no oh okay one of the staff told us the reason it
looks like this is because there's no food trucks allowed in the lower east side this is as close
as they can get so this is really cool if you order three tacos you get free chips and salsa
they're not trying to be la beery they're not trying to be mexican viria they're trying to do
a new york style a little bit of a puerto rican dominican twist to it as well usually i'm used
to more of a greasier taco shell but this is like just a taco shell i mean there's not much
like grease coming out of it every single birya taco comes with its own consummate so this is
the al pastor consummate that's the beef one and there's no animal fat in this what did he
say it was like it's like a garlic oil garlic oil yeah oh i love beer so much oh look at this
i've never had a an all-pastor birya before so
even the consummate tastes like an all-pastor taco it's like blowing my mind
it's a little sweet mine's a little sweet which is like yeah very different
you know they're really set up in the perfect location glory side they're open at night
could you imagine after a night of drinking coming here oh we're down five of these she
wants to drink the al pastor consummate right here that's how much she likes it
i actually would i've been eating vinegar since i was like a kid and like we would actually go
get vivian take it to the house and have it for breakfast normally was it sundays right
or something yeah well that's how i grew up like in tijuana is like uh it was like
everybody would go gabiria for like sunday morning breakfast a lot of you vegans complaining that i'm
doing a vegan stuff i've heard your cries and i'm here to tell you that you can get vegan
berries here jackfruit beer even has a vegan birya consomme let's see how this is my vegans out there
you don't have to be vegan to enjoy this there's a lot of flavor
all right let's get i want to try it from this side
this taco's huge jesus okay
i'm pretty happy you're like not bad new york not bad
i think the crispy tortilla complements the fish taco very well shout out to my
boy marco's world nyc for giving me the hot tip on this place he has one of the best
food instagram tick tocks in new york city check it out so revel just opened up in new york you can
get tesla's like an uber for about the same price in manhattan yeah like this is nice
that's like a really cool like window right here it's nice and you can actually view the city yeah
that was just fun every cheap eats adventure it needs to end with some dessert captain cookie
and the milkman what do you think of that name i mean it sounds like there's some superheroes like
it's batman and robin we're seeing the uh this superhero decor right here it's uh it's pretty
cool honestly i kind of just like like the regular chocolate chip i don't know what it is but this
place like makes me want to have milk yeah with my cookies we kind of have to one chocolate chip one
peanut butter one double chocolate chip these guys have only been open for three months so they don't
have like a cult following just yet maybe they'll be the next insomniac cookies i don't know i feel
like this is a place that you can have all the little kids asking their parents to come yeah for
all my little kid viewers out there tell mom and dad instead of the cocktail bars you go right here
oh cheers a little sugar on top here it's those little pieces i think these are some
of the softest chocolate chips i've ever had on a cookie yeah i want you to try wood let me try
a natural chocolate chip here try that part so much look at that gooey chocolate chips
the cookie's not even hot and it's like melt in your mouth okay
the real test though is dunking it in some milk oh yeah i don't know there's just like
this random cookie here on the table it probably doesn't belong to anybody so i guess i'll try it
it's supposed to be the camera guys i don't know where it went though yeah
camera guy is like missing i might take one more piece this is so good
it really does like melt in your mouth wow
i just don't think i like uh the crumbs of cookie in my milk why not no you don't belong in there
they definitely belong in there tell us the comments if the crumbs belong in the milk okay
i feel bad stealing ben's food but then i'm like i don't know that bad
