 A little drippy drip on the tippy tip. Don't ever give up on your dreams. The Vietnamese bun meat, the Italian sandwich. With the smaller sauce? For $3. Can I get the Yi Dunli Yi Fung? OK. Welcome to a very special episode of Fung Bros. Food you guys know about our brand new sauce, Smala. It is part Chinese, part Italian. Historically, Chinatown and Little Italy in New York have been right next to each other for over 100 years. So we're trying to bridge the gap today. That's what we're doing. The cultures are colliding. Bada bing, bada bam, bada boom. Let's get it. Hey, joining us today is Marcos World NYC. Starting off, Maywa Fast Food. You guys know about the history of Maywa Fast Food. They originally decades ago started with this stall. Then they expanded over here to the dining room. But you can go directly to the dining room in order from the kitchen over here. All right, everybody, thank you so much for clicking on that video. But real quick, we got to take a trip to Rochester, New York to show you how you can 3D print at home with the new Elugu 3D printers. Let's go. And I am here with the number one 3D printing guru on YouTube, Uncle Jesse. Man, great meeting you. What are we doing out here in Rochester? We are printing some smaller bottles for you guys on some of these Elugu 3D printers. This is the Saturn III Ultra Resin 3D printer that is super affordable. Wow, how affordable is affordable? I'm talking $499 for a highly detailed machine. So something that probably used to cost $50,000. You can do it in your kitchen. It's like a nice Christmas gift now. And we're even 3D printing some more things here on the Neptune 4. That's $259. I am watching something get made in front of my face. It's crazy. And here's an example of some other. I know you guys are in some food stuff. So here are some little treats that we got. You got ramen and the bao. I love it. Do you need all the scallions or that? Yeah. All right, so, man, we're looking at this Saturn III Ultra Resin printer. I mean, what does that really mean? And why is it so detailed? Because this is 12K resolution. Yeah, that's high res. And think about it, like your 4K TV or an 8K TV, this is 12Ks there. That's insane. And I guess to print something so detailed, how much does it even cost? I'm using the new Elegoo Rapid Resin, which is only $30. And I didn't even use half of the bottle for everything that I printed here. And it only took three hours to print. We need to get this cleaned up so I can show you what it looks like. I'm dropping it in some isopropyl alcohol that's going to clean off any of the uncured resin on these 3D prints. All right, Jesse, you've got to tell me how this all works, because the details on the leather of this Jordan 1 is crazy. Well, let me just tell you. There are two ways that you can go about doing this. I went the absolute easiest way, which is I just went online and found a file for free that I was able to download in 3D print. No modeling or anything like that. So it was already a 3D model of the Jordan shoe. Someone has already done that and provided it out in the wild for you to download. Elegoo offers a 3D scanner as well that you could run off and 3D scan your favorite pair of shoes or whatever it is to create that 3D printable file. Now, how did you do these Smala bottles where the Smala is squeezing out and it's? Exactly. Now, this is something completely unique and custom. So you guys sent me a photo over and I ended up going on my iPad and using a very basic 3D modeling job to create a bottle and the actual splashing action. I am not a 3D modeling expert by any means. I barely know what I'm doing and was able to figure this out. And listen, guys, you can print little figurines, anything that you're really into, pop cultural stuff. However, you could also print stuff for your scooter, for your bicycle, so super useful stuff that you just need in your everyday life as well. You can even print helmets. Remember, everything on this table as detailed as you want and as simple as you want was printed on a Elegoo 3D printer. And I'll tell you this. This is like a technology that I didn't even imagine that you could have at home up until pretty much this year. So I mean, I think it's amazing, guys. Elegoo is providing the best bang for your buck as far as 3D printers. The future is now. Check them out at the link down below. Get it for Christmas, maybe. But thank you all. Go, Jesse. Back to the city. Hey, how's it going? Can I get the pie you, Mian? Ha ha ha. She got it. She understood. She understood. She understood. That's what happened when you grew up in Chinatown. You're in your entire life. You still have to speak it. Yeah, yeah. Hey, Marco, this is your very first time here, right? First time here. This is like nestled in little Italy. And I've never been here before. It is. Is it OK? We're kind of in the zone of little Italy that the Chinese are slowly, you know, like. They are ready. You guys are ready. You can say it. You guys took over already. encroached on or just, you know, we're chilling. It's all good. Actually, I actually coached you wrong, but we got it all figured out. Originally, if you say Mian, that'll give you the Chinese noodle. But if you say Yidali Yifeng, then they're going to give you the pasta. So on that note, can I get the Yidali Yifeng? OK. We're getting the spaghetti. I'm getting better. Marco, man, you speak Mandarin and Cantonese. I mean, listen, I'm a jack of all trades. I'll tell you that. Aren't you guys, we're at Maywa Fast Food. Everything's about $7.25 to $8. And you actually got an Italian pasta option. I had to do the pork chops with the noodles, the pasta. I mean, listen. But it's not pasta in Chinese. Oh, what the hell is this? Man, you put me on the spot. I got it. And just like this spot is in between Chinatown and little Italy, so is Smala. Man, we made this sauce inspired by the Italian Collaboration Chili Oil and the Chinese Mala Chili Oil. And they got Shanghainese fried rice here, because it's a Taiwanese spot. But there's definitely some Shanghainese influences. Mm. Yeah, I got the G Tui. This is the chicken thigh right here. Now, how do you like the Jumper? I am ripping off this Jumper. I want to put the Smala sauce on the Jumper, because I only had the noodles. And I'll tell you what, I love the Smala sauce. It has a beautiful kick to it. The noodles will kind of obviously dry. You put this on it. If you like a little spice, you're going to really like this over here. Yeah. I just choked on a bone or something. There we go. Look at that. Yeah. It's never not enough spice over there. Oh my god. I love that. Love that. I'm a big fan of chili oil, but I'm an overall big spice guy. I got to say, the Smala with the pork chops go together like wild on rice. That's really, really good. And listen, you know it's a cheap eat, because it's not just under $10. It's way under $10. It's way under $10. It's under $8 here. Guys, we're trying the Smala, like we said, on the pasta, the Yidali-Yifan, on the G Tui. Who does pasta better? Chinese or Italians? For pasta, you guys got it. We got it. All right, here we go. Here we go. I love it. The Smala sauce with the pork chops, full of flavor. It's an explosion of flavors. I got to say, I love the Smala sauce, too, because it steps it up a notch. It gives it the kick it needs. It's quite aggressive. And honestly, it's satisfying from the soul down to the good old brajo. So one of the low-key famous things for the older folks at Maywa Fast Food, it's not just the pork chop. It's not just the chicken leg. It's actually the five-spice Jiang, aka sauce that they put on the rice, or pasta. It's just kind of like peppery brown sauce. You can see the five-spice markings. You see those little black specks? That's the five-spice right there. That's a foul. Yeah. I like that. I love that. And they can put it on anything here at Maywa. That's why I like it. And Maywa, literally, everything we got is $750. So you got your carbs. You got a little veggie. You got your protein for $750. Under $10. Under $8. And I got to say, this is the most luxurious, cheapy time I've ever had in Chinatown, probably in the world. And I have to say, it's made with nothing but love over here. Sub $8, guys. You cannot beat at Maywa Fast Food, Hester. Next up on our Chinatown little Italy food crawl is Caffe Napoli. Yo, this is actually owned by your family friend, right? Yo, yeah. And it's been around for over 50 years. And the food is delicious. And I mean, this is a staple here in Little Italy. When you think of Little Italy, a lot of restaurants here. But I feel this is one for me that sticks out the most. Because some come and go, but Caffe Napoli stays around. It stays around. It's a legendary spot right here. Oh, I can't wait to try some small on it. Let's go. Let's get it. All right, here at Caffe Napoli, we have the prosciutto pizza. We'll put a little smala on there. The little drizzle, baby. With the floppy, thin crust, deliciously done here, I have to fold it over. I'm about to eat it before you do. That looks so good. You know what I love about it? Is it's kind of like a hybrid between the Neapolitan style and the New York style, but more towards the Neapolitan style. Exactly. And this is actually a new item on the menu, which I love. You know, Caffe Napoli, I love what they do here because they're getting in with the times. And the pizza here, I gotta say, I'm so happy they did that because it's fucking nothing sort of delicious right here. Pizza is one of my top three things to put smala on. Pizza. You got it. You're a real Italian. I'm a pasta maker today. You really are. I like it because the smala kind of changed the color tone a little bit. I love it. Made it a little more tan. Wow. Here we go. Wowee. Wowee. Honestly, guys, we are here right now having some of my absolute favorite all-time picks of smala on it. Carbonara is certainly up there as well with pizza. Yeah. Listen, guys, any sort of white-based carbohydrate or cream sauce, aioli, perfecto, perfecto. It just looks cool, too. It looks cool when it looks like a bloodbath, but more importantly, it tastes very, very good with the carbonara. Got to twirl it like you twirl your girlfriend at night. Twirl it around with that. I love the carbonara here. It's very super creamy. You got the Cucper Giutto immaculate. And the smala sauce, again, I think my favorite item that was on the smala sauce, my favorite item that was on the smala sauce, easy to carbonara. I got to say. Now, one thing I do want to know. So this olive oil is delicious. And I think that even a kind of company, your olive oil, if you don't want to go full olive oil, add in the smala. So it's almost like the smala olive oil right there, and you just eat it with the bread. Andrew, you are a genius. You would say from above. I got to tell you. Tangle. Just a drop? Yeah. Just a little drop? Oh, yeah. That's five drops. Let's go. And then you do the little drizzle right there. There it is. Boom. I got to say, I'm impressed. I'm really impressed with this hot sauce, with the chili oil. Because I don't think it's hot sauce. I think hot sauce is just hot. This has a lot of flavor. You guys executed it beautifully. We call it smala sauce, smala chili oil, whatever it is to you. Now, I've tried it on ice cream. I thought it was good, but let's try it on the Italian cannoli. Ooh, a little drippy drip. A little drippy drip on the tippy tip. Definitely very sweet with a spice. That's very unorthodox to put on a cannoli. It's like a spicy dessert. What do you think? Is that kind of weird? It's very weird and unorthodox, but it tastes good. It's so weird. And my grandmother would be cursing me right now doing this, but she should try it. It's really good, actually. You know, cannolis, are they in my diet right now in 2023? No, but I'm going to go ahead and break outside of that box for the pistachio cannoli. The pistachio cannoli. The pistachio cannoli. I know a lot of flavor in there right there. That's a pistachio cannoli. That's the most different tasting. That's the most different. Yeah, what are you eating from the other head? Strongest pistachio cannoli. I've never had a pistachio cannoli in my life. This is it. All right, Marco, how many are you doing? We get a lot of dumplings. We get a lot of food. Gotta, you know, get it back into shape a little bit. Marco, don't ever give up. Don't ever give up on your dreams. Don't ever give up on your dreams. You keep going. Let's fucking eat. Let's go. All right, you guys, next up after Cafe Napoli, we've got a brand new legend in Chinatown, Sammy Wago. Yeah, and I think it's key that this is a new late night cheapy to late night. Like this is open, though, like what, 2 a.m.? Yeah, 2 a.m. on weekends, I believe in. I think on weekdays, midnight. Yeah, so I mean, it's a late night cheapy. How familiar are you with this one? I never heard of it before. I'm more into the old school spots because I grew up here. But all the new school spots I really don't know about, but that's why I have you guys to teach me. Hey, listen, guys, it goes perfect with Smala. These are Taiwanese Guotier dumplings. Like we said, it's pot stickers, but it's definitely Sammy Wago style. Pot stickers. Oh, OK. Everything here, especially the dumplings, it's all pretty much under $10. You can get them as cheap as $8, but you can get the more premium ones for $11. But it is absolutely a cheapy and a late night eat. At a brand new legend here, it's a late night Chinatown cheap as well as a cheap Chinatown eat. We've had Sammy Wago, Marco. I mean, you've never been here, but you've got to show you the way. So the difference between a dumpling and a pot sticker is a pot sticker has been seared on the bottom. Because it sticks to the pot. You were asking us earlier, but anyways, they got an array of things. They got the sesame honey chicken, chicken wings, the popcorn chicken, and then kimchi dumplings, the signature and chicken now. So, man, which one you going on first? So, I mean, this is a little bit of a step up. I love all the Chinatown cheap dumpling spots, tasty dumpling, China North, but maybe one level up. Yeah, OK. Still affordable, still under $10. Yeah, under $10, and it'll give you a lot of dumplings. How many dumplings do we have in it for an order? They're still playing CPOP and K-POP at the same time. Let's go. I'll drizzle some Smala as well as the house sauce. This is the signature one. This is the kimchi one. This is the kimchi one. Look at that sear on the bottom. They actually have their own, like, self-made, customized, like, dumpling grills back there. Let's go. Let's do a little drizzle, Smala drizzle. Let's go. Sammy Wago. Cheers. The kimchi, and like he said, the bottom is so super charred. So, you got that nice crunch with the kimchi that makes it a little sweet, and then Smala sauce, boom. Savory sweet, a nice little treat. Dumplings of the day, like I always say, keep the doctor away. And then check out the mallard effect on the bottom. That's normally the sear you want to get on a steak, but you can get it for a dollar at a dumpling spot. All right, but they don't only have dumplings. Let's try this honey sesame chicken. This is kind of like, you know, the dish, as we would say, for the guaylos. The guaylos, what does that mean, guaylo? Am I like a guaylo? For the non-Chinese. All right, chicken wings. You already know how to eat it, right? You just break it. I'm trying to do the bone pull thing. There we go. Then you shove it, get a little chicken lollipop. Taiwanese popcorn chicken. Gotta throw the Smala on there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's get in there. A little drizzle. If you guys ever want to order it at a Chinese spot in Mandarin, it's a Yen-su-jin. Yen-su-jin. That's so bad. Oh my God. A great late night cheap pizza as well, right here. This is at least the dumpling started $8. So I think it's a cheap eat, man. It's a new cheap eat. Yo, guys, we're here at Mineros Pizza, the only slice shop in literally Italy. Guys, what do you say? Yo, I love what they're doing with the slices. We got the white slice. We got the Caesar salad slice. We have the original pep. And I'm going to tell you this, man. I'm so excited to try Smala on it because, you know, you got to try it on the slice spot, on the best slice spot. And they got 1980s music playing right now. Like, we're doing like, what's our name, Christie Brickley workout video? I'm about to do the electric slide in a second. I don't know what you're talking about. Yo, it's a vibe out here. It's a vibe out here. All right. Caesar salad. I'm going to top it off. I've never even seen the Caesar salad slice before. Hey, let me write your initials, Marco. There we go. ML, man, you're doing it. There we go. David, you're going with the Caesar because you're trying to watch your weight, right? No, no, that's Marco. That's Marco's. I mean, I have a glam problem. I don't watch my weight. Because we all know how healthy Caesar salads are. Monero's pizza with Sma-La sauce. Sma-La's inspired by the Italian and Chinese cuisines. How much is per slice? Oh, these are like $4 a slice. $4, $4. Listen, guys, it's a cheapy. It's a big slice. It's a nice cheapy right here, yeah, definitely. Salad on pizza, I approve. With the Sma-La sauce, I approve even more. Oh my god. They put so much cheese on this pizza. And you know it's good when I want to eat the crust. I'm not actually not a crust guy. Andrew, like any slice, you got to attack it doggy style. Always doggy style on slices. Whether it's Neapolitan style or it's more like New York style sliced pizza, I'm telling you, Sma-La pizza, that's a banger combination. Aren't you guys continuing our food crawl throughout Chinatown to little Italy? We are in front of Bun-Mi-Co-U. Now, when you're talking about sandwiches between the two neighborhoods, you're going to be talking about the Italian sandwich and the Vietnamese sandwich. Because the Chinese, to be honest, they don't really have sandwiches. But of course in Chinatown, it's not only Chinese food. And we're outside of Bun-Mi-Co-U. This is one of the best Bun-Mi shops. All right, thank you, come on. All right, guys, I have the souped up $13 Vietnamese Bun-Mi. You can obviously get Bun-Mi's at a way cheaper price here, but let's check it out, guys. I got extra Vietnamese ham and I got extra mayo. Take a look at this. David, oh, not only that, I got extra carrots and daikon. Look at that. Look at those layers, all those veggies. Extra butter, let's get into it. Obviously you can get a sandwich for $8 here, but I got it for $13, so. Probably enough, the paté almost gives a feeling that there's like a tuna sandwich mixed into here. Mm. I just think it's cool that the two sandwiches you can get a little illy. Are the Vietnamese sandwich and the Italian sandwich. And I can't wait to compare it to the Italian sandwich. Not saying it's competition, okay? They're both sandwiches and both amazing in their own right, but man, I'm digging it. Bun-Mi cold, ooh. I think one of the most interesting things about Little Italy is the influx of people from Italy, so we're actually in front of El Gelato Italiano Figo, and I'm gonna be getting this real Sicilian gelato brioche right here. Hey, listen guys, I know if you guys are concerned about caloric or protein macros, this is probably not the way to go, but I'm telling you, this is delicious. Is that how you're supposed to eat it? I don't know. I'm telling you guys, you had no idea that brioche was gelato was gonna work, but between the fig flavor, which is figo, and the stacciatella, man, crazy. Listen guys, straight from Italy, only $8. This is a cheap eat. All right everybody, so we just got a Vietnamese Bun-Mi with Vietnamese ham, and then now I'm at Regina's up on Mulberry to get an Italian sandwich with Italian ham. Let's go. It's quite a different vibe than Bun-Mi cold, ooh. I got this smoked chicken hero right here, guys. Take a look at this. Oh, with a little chili peppers. Wow, look at that color. Look at the green, very aesthetic looking, and I got the little seeds on top. I really like to see that, man. Yeah, I'm excited. You know, obviously, so this sandwich is significantly more expensive than the Bun-Mi. This was about $18, but it does seem to be, you know, have a lot more different colors in there. So anyways, check it out. Here we have nice slices of tomato, lettuce, lots of juice. We've got the little chili peppers in there. I'm gonna pour some small law onto it, ha ha. Let's check it out. Smoked chicken here at Regina's, Italian sandwich. No joke, I think there is space for a really cool collab between an Italian sandwich spot and a Bun-Mi shop. I'm not gonna lie, I think there's actually some cool crossover that you can do because both sandwiches are gonna use pickled elements, you know, and I would say, for example, this smoked chicken maybe doesn't have as much salt or flavor as the Vietnamese ham, but if I got ham or prosciutto or salami in there, maybe it's a different story. All right, so when comparing the two types of sandwiches in Chinatown, a little Italy here, you have the Vietnamese Bun-Mi, which you can find in Chinatown, of course, and then you have the Italian sandwich. Obviously, the Italian sandwich, to me, is gonna be a lot more juicier because it has maybe more vinegar and juiciness dripping, but the Bun-Mi is gonna definitely have a sweeter vibe to it. The meats are gonna be different, depending on what you want, but there is a Bun-Mi that actually reminds me of a tomato meatball sandwich, which is the sumai, the salami sandwich with sauce on it, so if you get that, it probably will kind of taste like a meatball sub, but anyways, you got your options. The Bun-Mi probably will be a couple dollars cheaper, but this one, I'm not gonna lie, the bread might win because it's got the sesame seeds on front, so. Check it out, little Italy in Chinatown, though. No competition, it's just fusion. Maybe they should fuse together, eat them together on top of each other. All right, you guys, we have arrived at one of the mother of all cheap eats in Chinatown, shu jiao dumpling. Like you see on the receipt right here, 450 for the dumplings, $3 for the banh miang, which are these peanut wheat noodles, and of course, guys, we have to try the banh miang with sma lai. That's gonna give it that extra kick because obviously the peanut noodles and the hoi xin is not going to be that, you know, spicy. Here we go. I'm telling you guys, they went viral on TikTok for a reason, you cannot get a better plate of noodles for $3 flat. Are you kidding me? They offer a lot of different options. When they were at their old spot on Elbridge, they didn't offer chicken. A lot of people nowadays do not eat pork, so you know, you got some different options. You can go with the soy sauce, you can go with the sma lai. Now this is ji muo gu, ji is chicken, muo gu is mushroom. Boom, guys, $5, you get 10. If you guys are in the little Italy, Chinatown area, it does not almost get any better of a deal than this. Shu jiao. Shout out to the Fujianese.
