100 Hours in Shanghai, China! (Full Documentary) Shanghai Street Food and Shanghai Tower Tour!

What I love about China is their ability to keep the family unit together. Men & women both work hard, but both UNDERSTAND & KNOW their role to better family then better society.

[@7ouReal5u5pect]

A lot of people don't like 3-4 hr videos. However, I enjoy a full experience video! From the housing accommodations, to food including breakfast lunch and dinner plus snacks. Prices and conversions. Entertainment and observations of the natural culture of Shanghai

Buddhism originated in ancient India and was carried to China by Gautama Buddha.. Indian Buddhist priest named Bodhidharma was the founder of Kung Fu and carried it to China around 527 AD.

When you eat Haidilao, you have not even go to the sauce station to adjust your own sauce. This is the big big wrong way to eat it❌😂 As a Chinese, I can’t stand it anymore😂

I knew someone would pick this up. I just cannot believe the staff did not take them to the sauce station.

The soup dumpling - you need to take a bite to open it, drink the soup inside and then eat the dumplings. This is the way how you eat it while it is still hot without burning yourself

[@JudyT868]

Holy cow, deer/dear David. OMG. How much more can you improve on these documentaries!!! I loved how you transitioned from one video to the next: so effortlessly. I am finally done with this one and then Suriname popped up and I still have Mexico next. Loved ALL the food, from the dumplings, baos, wontons (no red meat for me), to the noodles (I find the Shanghai noodles too thick and doughy. We get it here in Toronto from the mall eatery.) The way they put the soup inside the dumplings is that they make the broth, add gelatin, freeze it, cut it in cubes and then put one inside the dumpling along with the meat and when you heat it up, the cube melts et voila. The open-faced dumpling is called shu mai which I love. I noticed that you left one (was that one for me?) LoL. Anyway, I enjoyed this one with all the little nuggets of history you put into it. Huge, clean and very well kept and maintained city. Can't ask for more. To quote you, "one more thing", did you ever go to Hong Kong? Would be very interested to see how it is today since Britain handed it back to China. Anyway, I am trying to keep it short because 4 hours are a long time. Job well done. So now I am jetting off to Ciudad Mejico and then to the one you posted this morning. David, you are a beast, hahaha. Have a great weekend.

I honestly appreciate you sharing this comment and I do welcome constructive criticism. However, I do recommend checking out my recent videos because I did change a lot since 4 years ago. I understand where you are coming from and to be honest everybody was kind of making that style 4 years ago because Mark was at the top of this genre. That said, things have moved forward and KZbin itself has changed a lot. I appreciate you suggesting authenticity and I agree with you fully.

What made me look is you said China and Mark is more about Thailand and i though why is this guy trying to be mark and that is why I messaged you.

Yes, I think that David often talks too fast, eats too fast, and everything goes by too fast. Easy to make mistakes with pronunciation if you are not taking time to listen well, to take time to digest things.......He likes food, but still has much to learn about safe and healthy eating.....e.g., take small portions; . . . eat a small mouthful at a time (never stuff your face and then make chewing difficult and swallowing potentially dangerous/choking); . . . chew well (don't just wolf it down) . . . stop when you are almost full . . . and take the rest with you for later.....

Breakfast is my favorite food in the world and spicy sauces but cant go crazy with the spice that early. I have no gallbladder and have colitis but i still enjoy my food searching journeys. I love sweet hot sauce if you plan on making anything like that. Like a spicy hoisin or sweet heat teriyaki

[@brentshuffler1234]

Sorry to hear about your serious health-problems. Are they related to eating too much? Or heavy consumption of meats? Fried foods? I learned that the gallbladder assists with digestion of fats; so overeating fatty foods could overwork the small organ. Colitis tends to reflect two problems: too much acidic food (e.g. meats) . . . and too little fibre (found only in foods from plants/Nature).

Approximately half of Shanghai is actually urban villages where migrants from rural China live. These urban slums have extremely poor living environment, dirty, crowded, chaotic, lack of water and electricity, very underdeveloped. This kind of urban slums even exists in all tier 1 cities like Shanghai and Beijing. Most foreigners may not have visited these places. Some may say there are less developed areas in every country, but the horrible living condition in china's urban slums is beyond imaginations. Dont take my words, there are many videos on youtube about urban villages in china. Consider yourself warned before you watch it especially if you are before or after meals.
