Ooh! I’ve been searching for egg waffles since I saw the eggloo place in NYC. I’m so happy I found yummy in philly which sells these. They have many different flavors, I couldn’t decide which one to try. The owner told me green tea flavor is very popular and he highly recommended it. I am very happy I got them. I even went back to get two extra one to bring to my family to try. This place is cash only, so bring cash!

A good place to grab a quick(and cheap) snack in chinatown. I came on Saturday with a non-pork eating friend, so unfortunately I didn’t try any of their buns =(. BUT I did try one of their waffles; my friend and I split an oreo and chocolate green tea one! The waffle was pretty good but didn’t actually taste at all like green tea, and it was a bit dry. I mostly liked it because it was fun to eat and the pieces with chocolate chips inside were warm and gooey. I’ll be back to try their green tea w/white chocolate waffle, and one of their meat buns!

We stopped in one morning for a green tea white chocolate waffle. They are cheap and amazing!!! I wasn’t sure what to expect but after I took a bite, I wanted 10 more! Yum! They menu is hard to read, but that’s ok. Later in the day my husband stopped in for curried fish balls. He said they weren’t shat he expected, but the flavor is good.

Having just returned to Philly from a trip to China, I was craving some more breakfast feasts of different kinds of Bao Zi, so I was excited to see Yummy Yummy offering a variety of steamed buns with BBQ pork, pork and veggies, vegetarian, and more kinds of fillings. We got one of each as well as some pan-fried chive dumplings, and everything really hit the spot!

When I was around 7 years old I had my first trip to NYC, my mom took me to Chinatown in New York and bought me a Chinese waffle from one of the street vendors. It was warm, it was sweet, it was chewy and it was a cherished childhood memory. Yummy yummy is THE true hidden gem in Chinatown. Cheap, quick and truly«yummy yummy». They serve Hong Kong style street food, much like the ones I remember back when I was a young boy. I never knew about this place until my girlfriend showed me and I keep coming back again and again to recapture that childhood memory I had. This is a CASHONLY place and don’t be intimated by the menu selection, whatever you’re in the mood for: something sweet, something savory or something quick and easy just ask this place has it all and for less than $ 4! If not the waffles I like the vegetarian soy sauce noodles, the rice noodles with mixed sauce or the curry fish balls. The Chinese waffles, my favorites are the original and green tea without any filling, are great no matter how young or old you are. They’re shaped like bubble wrap and easy to tear off and pop in your mouth. No other place has it other than here! Its a snack that’s been etched in my mind ever since I was a boy and finally there is a place in my city that serves it up and serves it up well.

Came here to try their green tea waffle. I expected more of green tea/matcha taste but I was a little disappointed. It tasted very bland with no flavor. Good spot to grab a little snack while in Chinatown! Their Chinese dishes however were very tasty. I had their noodles and it was pretty good for a good snack to share!

I always walked past this place and it never got my attention. Until I heard from a few friends that their waffles are pretty good. When you walk in, it could be pretty intimidating as the stuff on the menu wasn’t anything I was familiar with. I ordered the chocolate green tea waffles and the lady made it right in front of me, it took about 8 min to make. The waffles were only $ 2.75 and portions where big. It tasted amazing and fresh! It is CASH only. I recommend the flavor waffles than the original.

I walked in here cause I saw they had the mini egg waffles and I was so excited because I looove the one from New York Chinatown. I know they’re not the same and I hate to compare the two but I couldn’t help but feel disappointed when this one wasn’t as good. These waffles were okay, they were really dry and not really worth the $ 3 considering I only ate about 2⁄3 of them.

Yummy Yummy is a hidden gem. Although their bubble tea didn’t blow me off my feet, I was smitten by their egg waffles(QQ waffles). I’m more of a fan of the Chinatown in Manhattan since that’s the one I grew up with, but I haven’t found waffles like these in New York. They have flavors like green tea(with or without white chocolate morsels baked into them), chocolate oreo, chocolate, strawberries and crème, and even coconut. My favorite was green tea whereas my friend’s was the original one. You can’t ever go wrong with the original. Aside from the waffles, they have a HUGE variety of cantonese/taiwanese snacks, which are pretty well made. I wish I hadn’t eaten beforehand or else I would’ve gotten everything I could off the menu. Would definitely take the drive for Yummy Yummy again. :)

Best waffle you’ll ever have. These are not your typical waffles. They are small round balls crispy on the outside and doughy in the inside. And they are flavored. Try their green tea and white chocolate waffle. So good! Perfect way to start a morning.

They sell little egg ball waffles here! In a VARIETY of flavors! I haven’t had them since I was 10. Brought back lots of memories. Yummy Yummy definitely lives up to its name. What a cheap($ 2.50) and great find in Chinatown!

I just swung by here at the end of my lunch break for a sweet pick-me-up. I ordered the original waffle and the jasmine milk tea and I am happy as a clam. They taste wonderful together! The«waffles» are little dough holes that were popped out of a waffle maker. I could see them being a little bland on their own, so when you order them I recommend choosing a milk tea to pair it with. They do have special waffles as well if you want to make it a little sweeter, but I prefer the simplicity of the original. They also have noodles and other lunch items on their menu that I am excited to try next time.

This hidden gem is one of my new go to places for brunch food, mid day snacks, or even bubble tea! I recently discovered it while roaming around for new Chinatown restaurants/cafes I haven’t tried yet. If you love cheap, above average quality, fresh, and fast service, I highly recommend this small hole in the wall café! To note, there is essentially no seating except for 4 seats along the wall. If you love fresh traditional buns with meat inside, I highly recommend any of their buns, especially the combination bun that is loaded with various meats. On the counter top, I highly recommend their fried noodles they will have in a glass rectangular dish. For dessert, I highly recommend the green tea white chocolate waffle which makes for a great sweet mid day snack. I also highly recommend their fresh fruit smoothies — they always use fresh fruit and will tell you if they are out of certain ones if you ask. Their bubbles are made just right with a extra kick of sweetness and texture that cant be found at Teado or Kungfu Tea. Only downside is they add alot of bubbles like other bubble tea stores so if you’re not into them, I would just stick to the smoothie by itself. Will be coming back here soon to try other items on their menu such as their takoyaki!

They have excellent traditional sweet soups(a little pricey, but made very well). Also their rice noodles are super fresh and super good. I haven’t tried their teas yet, but this is my new spot for some traditional Chinese goods that are best had fresh.

First impression: there are so many things to choose from. Yummy Yummy offers a few flavors of boba, QQ waffle, steamed buns, takoyaki, rice noodle, fried dough stick(油条), some Chinese pastries, and more that I had to constantly remind myself to only buy what I can eat or drink within two days. I ended up settling for a lavender milk tea with boba, green tea and white chocolate waffle, vegetable steamed bun, and rice noodle with egg. I really liked my boba because it was chewy and I could taste the artificial lavender flavoring that I like. The waffle was especially good when it was still fresh and crispy, although I couldn’t taste any green tea there whatsoever. I didn’t quite like the steamed bun and rice noodle. The best thing about this place is that it’s affordable. I certainly will go back for more boba when I’m also craving banh mi from Q.T. a few doors down.
