[@user-nt7ui2km4k]

The kind of chicken is for soup only

[@chong82]

I'm a chinese but not from China, and my mum used to prepared soup with black chicken. The broth as you called it, its actually chicken essence from the long hours of cooking, which we believe will help to improve concentration and reduce tiredness. It's a bit bland but the importance is the essence and not the flavor. When i'm on long working hours, my mum will prepare this broth for me.

[@yanggang15]

[@andreasbriy6862]

"im not TrevorJames everybody" 😂🤣🤣

[@kurlexchoi]

But he acted like Trevor James in the introduction of the video so he did learn something from the food ranger. Trevor didn't spoke the native language either not Cantonese, but mostly mandarin. He had a wife from there where Mark Wien also had his wife from Thailand. Sonny could get a local girl friend or companion to assist him to communicate. Half of Vietnamese can speak both Cantonese/Mandarin only if his camera man is one of those types, they should able to coordinate when he bought that live silky chicken.

Looking at me people think I'm from different countries. I get asked what country, ethnicity? Also guesses like India, Peru, a confused "You're Mexican?...or no.", I thought you were Muslim and more.
