That first Market look absolutely amazing
mashed potatoes for dairy is crazy work ! lol
Ive never tried Amish food. But this video had me wanting to try it out. 😅😊❤
Brisket is not Amish!
Come down to my neck of the woods anytime!!!
I’m boring and raised in a small town called Lititz. I’m 10 minutes from there. I’ve been going to green dragon and roots since I was like one years old 29 sandwich shady maple Yoders Greenhills Hoover’s Oregon dairy.
Hello❤ 508🎉 Lk
You guys are so cute! I love seeing all these vendors and food!
Nice try. Jolly did it first.
This is the 3rd youtube channel I've seen today that has eaten a this buffet 😋.
Everyone has shown it differently
Are you gonna do a video? On the New York snow
Sick vid man 👌🏻
You should really do a video on all the barbecue places in NYC! Ribs, chicken, tri tip, brisket, etc
I love Shady Maple Buffet/smorgasbord. If you go on your birthday, it’s free.
My family goes once a year for someone’s birthday.
I love the Harvard Beets there.
My family likes to go once a Tuesday which is Surf and Turf night. Prime rib or steak and seafood.
Bro we need more videos.
What does a tiny Amish pizza man look like 🤔 😅😂😮
Well, you know why the Amish shoe is so good cause they don’t doctored it up with crap it’s homemade heat and you hit it on the nail everything we do in America. It’s too much sugar too much of everything and we don’t do it right no more because we don’t care although I’m not we I do care but I’ll tell you this America’s literally killing itself for the food that we eat because we don’t demand better one person can’t change, but if the entire country would demand better, you would have better but you don’t care so that being said we keep eating the crap that we keep getting fed anyway I live in Ohio, but I’ve always wanted to get over to Lancaster because there’s a nice big buffet over there
That’s funny you mentioned Subway that sub that you’re eating believe it or not back in the 90s subway used to make their sandwiches like that and they actually looked that good and they actually tasted that good heck everything 30 or 40 years ago tasted a lot better than it does today it was real food. It wasn’t generic prefab or somehow made from nothing to become something. The food was much better 30 or 40 years ago and yes, shady maple is the place I was talking about.
Amish people have created the biggest scam on the tax paying American people. They are a modern day cult
My girlfriend lives in Amish country. The food is amazing but seriously unhealthy 🤣
Good Afternoon Jon. A youtuber Joe Bartolozzi reacted to one of your new york scam videos!!!!
Having been to a couple Amish weddings, I can tell you the experience is nothing like an "English" wedding. And if you leave hungry, that's your own fault.
i grew up in Ephrata, PA and seeing green dragon made me super happy haha
New Yorkers are obssessed with hot dogs and pizza….
I get to Pennsylvania about twice a year thanks for great ideas of where to eat. Nice content
We have an Amish market in Maryland that makes the best pizza and potato wedges
😂🍓🥔🥨🧀🍖🍕🍲🍩🍩🥧🥧
The "fruit" brisket is pretty classic.
After seeing all the food I can see why they sell diabetic socks here
Hi! I'm Orna from Tel Aviv. This was such a fun and delightful watch! The food looked incredible, and I’m definitely adopting 'Evan logic' from now on brisket is officially a fruit! You two are great together 🎉🥰
Hey Jon this video was fun and the last restaurant food looked amazing!
I hope you do this for some other cuisines as well.
Awesome video! I live and work in Ohio’s Amish country which is the largest in the country. Would love to have you in Holmes county and would be happy to show you the local eats! Small YouTuber here but my day job is in food manufacturing so I could totally show you what we do as well as I handle the company tours! Get her Jon!
I'm sorry but I hate the "I ate only whatever for 24 hours" video title so much. Like bro you ate food for a day lol whoopity doo. When I drove lyft I was doing 80-90 hour weeks to get 60 hours clocked in, did 20 days of gas station sandwhiches only before and not part of a challenge just practicality(my most days without a day off probably 90 consecutive days, was making $2k a week in denver area not bad). Could have made a youtube video "I ate ONLY gas station food for 20 days" like whoopity doo. Just say your reviewing amish food lol. 24 hours is not a long time to eat a type of food, in fact it's an extremely short amount of time to eat type of food lol
Oh the irony that you're eating a giant whoopie pie in front of the "we have diabetic socks" sign. 😂😂😂
Shady Maple is not Amish food. They have a few things that are traditionally from that realm, but most of what they're doing is straight from the can hospital cafeteria style. Dienner's/Hershey Farms/Oregon Dairy or hell, even Miller's are far better in terms of flavor or "authenticity".
I live only 25 miles from Green Dragon and Shady Maple! If you don't get the sausage sandwich from Newswanger's Sausage stand at Green Dragon, you are MISSING OUT!!!
Welcome to real food not the garbage overpriced crap in NYC.
I live in South Jersey and we have a few Amish markets and Reading Terminal Market in Phila is 20 minutes away!!!
Love shady maple
Loved Evan, please bring him back!
We,ll find it then we eat it
I wouldn't mind eating only Amish food for 24 days straight
Why does he always look angry
Is Green Dragon bigger than Roots now?? I'm farther away from the area now and haven't made it back in a good few years. Roots was always my fav. Although the stuff I used to load up on there was fresh produce, canned jams and butters, and the best fruit BBQ sauce I ever tasted. I am SO hoping to get back, but it's a long drive (and I'm not going w/out a car to load up….why bother lol).
Not to mention I MUST eat at Dienner's again. Shady Maple is great, but Dienner's is the one with Amish and Mennonite's cooking and eating there! Not as big a buffet, but the best food IMHO It is amazing how much good food is in that area . Been dying to try Katie's. I've heard good things. Broast (the wedding meal) is supposed to be spot on. My family used to vacation there annually, then I used to go back fairly often. Miss it SO much!
Omg I was going to go to green dragon and didn't😢 I'm so sad I missed you
BFD.
