Have you tried Chinese crepe? Jiang Bing?

It’s popping up all over the place now as the next popular food tread. Mr. Bing’s in NYC has been getting a lot of press on The Today Show, NY Times, GMA, etc. I didn’t know Mr. Bing was a white guy. Is this cultural appropriation?

There’s a Japanese crepe place in my area and the crepes are surprisingly without flavor. They look good, though.

Oh and crepes were a thing in NYC in 2014.

Are crepes a gastronomic "BOP", OP?

Don't embarrass yourself by saying Crape.

He’s not speaking Shanghainese though, R11.

Japanese desserts are generally without flavor. The best Japanese cuisine is fancy banquet kaiseki ryori, which is very hard to get here. The rest is meh.

I tried these a couple of years ago in LA. They're quite good.

Chinese crepes. Big deal. Who hasn't had Mu Shu pork?

Has anyone had mochi donuts? Americanized Japanese.

It’s not Mu Su pork. Go to the 6:00 minute mark to see how they make it. The Puerto Rican guy is fast.

R16 - are you a Turkish gay?

R11 and r13: 其實他們倆的普通話都講的蠻流利的,就是犯了一般外國人講華語的問題: 四聲不準, 有點 off, 不過聽起來還蠻好玩的就是了 呵呵

I never met a crepe I didn't like. French, Vietnamese mung bean crepes, Indian dosas, I love them all!!

I'll try the Chinese ones when they come out here to the middle of nowhere.
