I ate there yesterday and boyeee yall getting chop suey fooled lol
The guy is cute
These people are the ones that made America, hardworking and still going strong thank you
You know that chop suey must be really americanized if a white guy is cooking it 🤣
Great story about great people.
Maybe this is why they made a Montana replica in China. I was actually looking that up when this popped up instead. I had no idea about Chinese in Montana. I found out I was part Chinese through DNA testing. My GG Grandfather came from Guangdong region. He married my Irish GG Grandma. This fascinates me because I wish I knew more about my Chinese side, Aloha & Mahalo plenty!! Beautiful heritage you have with this gem of a restaurant.
🤙🏽🌺
You have done the Chinese proud
I've seen several things about this place and food looks really good really high quality Chinese food
Chinese food is great
I heard of a fellow that went here and ordered some food and found some soap in his crepla. You see these Chinese do the cooking and cleaning in the same pot
So glad and happy to learn about the oldest Chinese restaurant in America in Butte, Montana. Aloha from Hawaii !!!!!

Thanks for spreading the kindness! Proud of you!
Waiting on my ride…I'll phone u!
God Bless This Old School Chinese American Family !
Wow I've had Sang Kee pecking duck all my life, I never knew Pecking was Beijing
what a cool story!
☝️🇨🇳
Hope they make a museum.
The truth is that I have heard and seen blatant bigotry among the Chinese and other Orientals against other people of color while kissing up to the white patrons! Sadly ironic, isn't it?

SAD REALITY of American Culture and history is " The Racist Heart of America " against "ALL" Non- Whites.
THINK!
" From The Colored to The Natives to The Mexican, The Jews, … ALL CONtinue to face racism in a very GODless CONrty – PERIOD. "

Why did the network send an East Asian to interview a Chinese restaurant owner? Racist?
Awesome!! Integral part of American history right here.
if im ever in butte.
Aww Thank you for sharing your Precious Loving Family History 🧡
Beautiful, I wonder what’s the best food to order from any Chinese restaurant?
I think Juju was upset that he didn’t experience any racism during the pandemic. That’s the job of the media to race bait.
There is a huge difference between the initial, what the liberal MSM calls “racism” during CV when it was determined to have been made in China. Verus the horrible things going on in the West during this time. A dirty look and nasty name is one thing (still not right) versus the hangings, beatings and other such nonsense that was done. You can survive a dirty look or a nasty name. I’m happy this man is apart of Butte, it’d be nice to take a drive up and see it. Our history as a melting pot is what makes US great.
All that glitters is not gold
I think you should thank your father. Hope for the best. – from the new york city you did not survive. 6/13/2022
Chop suey isn't Chinese.
1911 🥡🥢 wow 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
After watching this I definitely wanna go try it out befor I die the story and history behind it was fascinating to hear and see I wish they thought history like this the people who tried to run them out then and not are part of the problem not the solution I love how the community stood behind them I'm happy to see they are successful ❤
I wonder how he felt about moving from NYC doing fashion to montana to run his family's Chinese resto
PROUD to be an Asian American!!!!
❤️
Beautiful story wow
What a wonderful expression of 'Free Enterprise'. Q: Dude, I'm hungry. A: Dude, we're open.
Chinese food is one of my favorite foods! 🥡
