Welcome to English Travel Channel.

Hello everyone!

Today we're going to look at a bakery tour in New York City.

In this video, you will follow a simple and practical story between a couple,

Sam and Mina, and the bakery staff.

Don't worry, I will speak slowly and clearly,

so please relax and enjoy the story.

Before we start, I have a small question for you.

Please listen carefully to find the answer.

This will help you understand English more deeply.

So here is today's question.

How heavy is a famous Levain cookie in New York City?

The answer is mentioned in the conversation.

If you find the answer,

please write it in the comments section.

By writing your answer in English,

you can improve your English skills even more effectively.

Alright, let's start the video.

Are you ready?

Okay, let's begin.

Good morning, Mina.

Over here.

Sam, good morning.

Wow, what a beautiful Sunday.

Yeah, perfect weather for walking.

How was your morning?

Great.

I had some yogurt and fruit at home.

I was too excited to eat much.

Good, because after breakfast here,

I'm taking you to eat the most famous thing in NYC.

The most famous thing?

What is it?

Is it bread?

Cake?

I'm not telling you yet.

It's a surprise for later.

Come on, Sam.

Just a hint, please.

Nope.

You'll find out when we get there.

Trust me, it's going to be fun.

Okay, okay.

I'll stop asking.

For now.

Good.

So, let's start with breakfast.

Okay.

Then tell me about this place.

This bakery looks so French.

It is.

This is Balthazar Bakery.

It opened in 1997.

It's a famous French brasserie and bakery.

A brasserie?

What's that?

It's a kind of French restaurant.

Casual, but with really good food.

And the bread here is amazing.

So it's been here for almost 30 years?

Yeah, almost 30 years.

New Yorkers love this place.

It's a classic.

A classic.

Nice.

Where are we exactly?

The streets look so pretty.

We're in Soho.

Do you know what Soho means?

No, I always wondered about that name.

It means South of Houston Street.

So, so, ho.

South of Houston.

Oh, that's so simple.

I love it.

So, Balthazar first, then the big secret?

Exactly.

Let's go inside.

I'm hungry.

Good morning.

Welcome to Balthazar.

What can I get for you?

Good morning.

Um, everything looks so good.

Can I have a moment?

Of course.

Take your time.

Okay, I'd like one croissant and one pan au chocolat, please.

Great choice.

Both are fresh from the oven this morning.

Fresh from the oven?

Wow, so they're still warm?

Just a little warm.

We bake them early in the morning, every day.

That sounds amazing.

And I also want to buy some bread to take home.

What do you recommend?

Our baguette is very popular.

It's crusty outside and soft inside.

100

Crusty?

101

What does that mean?

102

It means the outside is hard and makes a crunchy sound when you bite it.

103

Oh, I love that.

104

A French baguette is supposed to be like that, right?

105

Exactly.

106

A real French baguette has a crusty outside and a light, airy inside.

107

Airy.

108

So the inside has lots of little holes?

109

Yes, lots of little holes.

110

That's how you know it's a good baguette.

111

I'll take one baguette, please.

112

Sure.

113

A whole loaf or half?

114

A whole loaf, please.

115

Um, a loaf means the whole thing, right?

116

Yes.

117

A loaf is one whole piece of bread.

118

Got it.

119

So I can say one loaf of bread.

120

Perfect.

121

And would you like the baguette sliced?

122

Oh, what does sliced mean?

123

Like one slice at a time?

124

Right.

125

A slice is one thin piece.

126

We cut the loaf into many slices.

127

Ah, so one loaf, many slices.

128

I understand now.

129

Exactly.

130

So sliced or whole?

131

Whole, please.

132

Anything else?

133

A sourdough loaf, maybe?

134

Sourdough.

135

That's the one with a little sour taste, right?

136

Right.

137

Some people love it.

138

It goes well with cheese.

139

Maybe next time.

140

Just the baguette today.

141

OK.

142

One croissant, one pan au chocolat, and one baguette.

143

That's $22.

144

Here you go.

145

Thank you so much.

146

Thank you.

147

Enjoy your breakfast.

148

Wow!

149

Look at that croissant!

150

It's huge!

151

I know.

152

In Japan, croissants are smaller.

153

Yeah, in NYC, bakeries make them bigger and a little sweeter.

154

It's the American style.

155

Really?

156

But croissants are French, right?

157

Yes, they come from France.

158

But here, they changed a little.

159

Try it.

160

Okay, here I go.

161

So, how is it?

162

Oh my god, so buttery.

163

It just melts in my mouth.

164

Right?

165

Crispy outside, soft inside.

166

That's a good croissant.

167

Crispy.

168

I'll remember that word.

169

Crispy outside, soft inside.

170

Yeah, that's a good way to describe it.

171

You can use that for fried chicken, too.

172

Oh, nice.

173

And what about this pan au chocolat?

174

That one has chocolate inside.

175

Same buttery dough but with a chocolate bar baked in.

176

Pan means bread in French, right?

177

Right.

178

Pan au chocolat means bread with chocolate.

179

Simple and perfect.

180

Okay, trying the chocolate one now.

181

Take a big bite.

182

Mmm, the chocolate is still a little warm.

183

This is heaven.

184

I thought you'd like it.

185

The dough is so light.

186

It has lots of layers.

187

Yeah, that's the trick.

188

Croissant dough has many thin layers of butter and flour.

189

Amazing!

190

So this is why it feels so light and rich at the same time.

191

Exactly.

192

Now you understand croissants like a real New Yorker.

193

Okay, so Sam, about the famous thing, what is it?

194

Please tell me.

195

Nope, not yet.

196

Oh, come on.

197

Is it another bakery?

198

Maybe.

199

Maybe not.

200

Is it sweet or salty?

201

I'm not telling you.

202

Is it far from here?

203

We need to take the subway,

204

but trust me, it's worth the subway ride.

205

Worth the subway ride.

206

Okay, now I'm really curious.

207

Good.

208

That's the point.

209

Finish your croissant.

210

We have a train to catch.

211

Okay, okay.

212

Last bite.

213

Now, let's take a short break here.

214

We are going to practice some useful words from today's video.

215

We have five words today.

216

Are you ready?

217

Let's begin!

218

The first word is loaf.

219

The first word is loaf.

220

Meaning, a whole piece of bread before it is cut.

221

For example, I bought a loaf of bread at the bakery.

222

The second word is slice,

223

meaning one thin piece cut from a loaf.

224

For example, I had two slices of bread for breakfast.

225

The third word is crusty,

226

meaning hard and crunchy on the outside.

227

For example, a French baguette has a crusty outside.

228

The fourth word is crispy,

229

meaning light, dry, and easy to break.

230

For example, the croissant was warm and crispy.

231

The fifth word is gooey,

232

meaning soft, sticky, and a little wet.

233

For example, the warm cookie was gooey inside.

234

Great work!

235

That's all for today's word practice.

236

Now let's go back to Sam and Mina at the famous bakery in New York City.

237

Sam, what is this line?

238

This is the line for the famous thing.

239

There are so many people.

240

Where are we?

241

We're on the Upper West Side.

242

UWS for short.

243

And this is Livane Bakery.

244

Upper West Side.

245

Is that a fancy area?

246

Yeah, pretty fancy.

247

Central Park is right there.

248

Many families live here.

249

It feels calmer than Soho.

250

Yeah, a different feeling.

251

Anyway, this is Livane Bakery.

252

You know this name?

253

Levain Bakery.

254

I've seen this name on Instagram, I think.

255

Probably.

256

It's very famous.

257

People wait in line just for one thing.

258

Just for one thing?

259

What is it?

260

You'll see very soon.

261

Look at the line.

262

Almost everyone is getting the same item.

263

Wait.

264

Everyone has a small brown bag.

265

What's inside?

266

Wait and see, Mina.

267

Wait and see.

268

You're so mean today.

269

It's more fun this way.

270

Okay, some history.

271

Levain opened in 1995.

272

Two women started it.

273

They were marathon runners.

274

Marathon runners started a bakery?

275

Why?

276

They needed energy for long runs,

277

so they made something big.

278

And now it's world famous.

279

That's such a nice story.

280

Yeah.

281

Oh, the line is moving.

282

Are you hungry?

283

Very hungry.

284

Walking in NYC makes me so hungry.

285

Okay, you wait here outside.

286

It's too crowded inside.

287

I'll go in and order.

288

Got it.

289

Don't take too long.

290

I won't.

291

Save me a spot on that bench.

292

Okay, I'll save your spot.

293

Go, go.

294

Hi there.

295

Welcome to Levain.

296

What can I get you today?

297

Hi.

298

Two cookies, please.

299

Sure thing.

300

Which flavors?

301

Both chocolate chip walnut, please.

302

Good choice.

303

That's our classic, chocolate chip and walnut inside.

304

Yeah, it's my favorite.

305

Are they fresh today?

306

They are very fresh.

307

Just out of the oven.

308

Still warm, actually.

309

Just out of the oven?

310

Oh, that's perfect timing.

311

I know, right?

312

The line never ends, so we bake all day.

313

I can see that.

314

My friend has never had one before.

315

Oh, then she will love it.

316

The first time is the best.

317

Yeah, I want her to try it warm.

318

Good choice, then.

319

When cookies are still warm,

320

the chocolate inside is soft and melted.

321

That's the best part.

322

These cookies are heavy, right?

323

Very heavy.

324

Each one is about 170 grams.

325

Big and heavy.

326

Almost like a small meal.

327

Bigger than the palm of my hand.

328

Exactly.

329

Some people can't finish one alone.

330

I can.

331

Easily.

332

A big fan, then.

333

Anything else?

334

We also have bread, muffins, and coffee.

335

Just two waters, please.

336

The cookies are sweet, so we need water.

337

Good idea.

338

That'll be $18.

339

Here you go.

340

Thank you.

341

One more thing.

342

Eat them within 10 minutes if you want them warm.

343

Good tip.

344

We'll eat them right outside on the bench.

345

Perfect.

346

Enjoy.

347

And tell your friend, welcome to the Levain Club.

348

I will.

349

Thanks.

350

Okay, Mina.

351

Sit down.

352

I have the famous thing right here.

353

Let me see.

354

Let me see.

355

Open the bag.

356

Ready?

357

Here it is.

358

Oh my God!

359

It's a cookie, but it's huge.

360

Yes, a cookie.

361

A Levain cookie.

362

It's so big.

363

It's bigger than my hand.

364

How heavy is this?

365

About 170 grams.

366

Heavy, right?

367

Really heavy.

368

It feels like a rock.

369

But a delicious rock.

370

Break it open.

371

Pull it apart with your hands.

372

With my hands?

373

It's still warm.

374

Yeah, use your hands.

375

That's the best way.

376

Okay, here I go.

377

Oh, oh, Sam, look!

378

I know.

379

Cool, right?

380

The chocolate is melted.

381

It's stretching, like melted cheese, but chocolate.

382

Exactly.

383

That's why you eat it warm,

384

still warm inside from the oven.

385

And I can see walnuts, too.

386

Big pieces.

387

Yeah, chocolate chip and walnut.

388

That's the classic flavor.

389

Okay, I'm taking a bite.

390

Here I go.

391

Tell me everything.

392

Mmm.

393

Oh, wow.

394

It's crispy on the outside, but the inside?

395

The inside is so soft, like warm dough.

396

Right?

397

Crunchy outside, soft and gooey inside.

398

That's the magic.

399

Gooey?

400

What does gooey mean?

401

Gooey means soft and sticky,

402

like melted chocolate or warm caramel.

403

Perfect word.

404

Gooey.

405

I'll use that.

406

Good.

407

You're learning fast.

408

And the chocolate is so melted.

409

It's like chocolate sauce.

410

Yup.

411

Now you understand the line.

412

I totally understand.

413

I would wait one hour for this.

414

Some people wait two hours.

415

On weekends, the line goes down the street.

416

Two hours?

417

For a cookie?

418

For this cookie, yes.

419

Now I believe it.

420

So, are you ready for the big reveal?

421

Yes, yes.

422

Tell me.

423

This is NYC's most famous cookie.

424

People come from all over the world just to try it.

425

From all over the world?

426

Really?

427

Really.

428

Tourists from Japan, Korea, Europe, everywhere.

429

Now you know why people wait.

430

I get it now.

431

It's worth the subway ride.

432

It's worth the long line.

433

Exactly.

434

So, how you feel?

435

Sam, I'll remember this forever.

436

My first Levain cookie in NYC.

437

I'm glad.

438

Finish it.

439

We still have half the day.

440

Okay, one more bite.

441

Mmm, so good.

442

And next time you can order it yourself.

443

You know all the words now.

444

Chocolate chip, walnut, fresh, warm, out of the oven.

445

Got it!

शैडोइंग तकनीक क्या है?

शैडोइंग (Shadowing) एक विज्ञान-समर्थित भाषा सीखने की तकनीक है जो मूल रूप से पेशेवर दुभाषिया प्रशिक्षण के लिए विकसित की गई थी। विधि सरल लेकिन शक्तिशाली है: आप मूल अंग्रेज़ी ऑडियो सुनते हैं और तुरंत इसे ज़ोर से दोहराते हैं — जैसे वक्ता की छाया 1-2 सेकंड की देरी से। शोध से पता चलता है कि यह उच्चारण सटीकता, स्वर, लय, जुड़ी हुई ध्वनियाँ, सुनने की समझ और बोलने की प्रवाहशीलता में काफ़ी सुधार करता है।
