    Requirements for working in Andrew's kitchen: 1) expert culinary skill 2) be jacked AF

    Amazing to see Andrew on this. He taught me and my dad Wing-Chun in London when I was around 11 years old (I'm now 21). Even on a busy Saturday night when we would visit his now-closed restaurant Bumbles, him and his wife Natalie (who handled FOH) would always take the time to show me the kitchen during service, and I thought it was incredible. My parents never let me have fizzy drinks, but Natalie would always give me Sprite and we'd pretend it was water. The memories I have of Andrew and Bumbles shaped the love I have for food and cuisine today :)

    don't ever stop this series, you don't know how appreciated it is
  • @I-Teee
    These dudes hit the food and hit the gym. Respect.
  • Mise En Place is a fantastic series! Every single episode is amazing.
  • @joshmore7175
    Their dim sum is genuinely exceptional. It's phenomenal and I haven't stopped thinking about it in years
  • @GB-lr7nz
    The amount of work and detail that goes into something that seems so simple is absolutely mind boggling. The complexity of Chinese cooking always surprises me
  • @DanyCesc83
    This series is by far the best thing on YouTube, The stories and personalities of each chef and their staff is simply amazing not to mention the delicious food each creates.
  • We have been twice to A Wong and we can't but highly recommend it. Not featured here it's their main menu, Taste of China, which is inspired by his travels around provinces. As the menu progresses, the diners travels through the eight Chinese cuisines (Anhui, Cantonese, Fujian, Hunan, Jiangsu, Shandong, Sichuan, Zhejiang). In any case, the dim sum lunch is truly excellent and probably the best value for money option.

    Dim Sum really does touch a person's heart when they eat it.
  • @appl2597
    It's absurd that there aren't more Michelin-starred Chinese restaurants. Chinese food is freaking delicious!.
  • A. Wong is a phenomenal experience. If you're in London and haven't been - the taste of china menu is worth the price of admission and more!
  • Mise En Place is one of the handful of Youtube series I make a note to set time aside for. What extraordinary talent and art to present so beautifully and with such excellent scope. It isn't just the food you focus on, it's the people behind it, their dedication and expertise in sync with their values presented cleanly and succinctly. Thank you.

    You can see how much love Andrew puts in his food😊 i enjoyed watching this😊
  • @Kr0nicridah
    Visited several times when I lived in London about 7 years ago. The dim sum was truly exceptional and I still dream about their knife-shaved noodles to this day. Can’t wait to revisit.
  • @annec6200
    This is not food, it’s art. The amount of details in every bite is just phenomenal. (I watched whilst I was hungry…oh boy! Lol)
  • Hands down the best Chinese restaurant in London, and one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to. Never had such a pleasure experience and for a guy who grew up in China, was extremely surprised that I can get such quality Chinese food in a foreign country.
  • I was lucky enough to go here as my sibling took me for my birthday dinner, he did a take on a classic UK take away dish crispy chilli beef, it was inverted so it was crispy on the outside but the sauce with in the middle with the beef, blew me away, chinese/cantonese cooking imo is completely underrated
