EPIC Guangzhou food adventure ft. cheap & local places!

One of the top reasons why I am obsessed with your content is also how little pretension it has! You say it like it is, you are open to sharing your own life (Derk and your family), you are adventurous without being foolish, you are candid without being disrespecful, you are fine with sharing the limelight with other guests and content creators, and your enthusiasm for food is just so damn infectious

[@neutrinotype]

amy i need to say- i know it's mostly for the sake of chinese speaking viewers, but i really do appreciate how thorough and well done your subtitles always are. i have problems with processing audio so often times without subtitles most of what i hear in videos ends up just sounding like gibberish, and when youtubers forego subtitles entirely and just rely on the autogenerated ones the site puts in for them it makes it harder for me to enjoy their content. you've really outdone yourself with making your content accessible in so many different ways and i can't thank you enough for it :] super excited to see what else you do next!!

Love the collaboration with Peter as always! Guangzhou is such an amazing city ❤ The Chinese herbal tea is just sooooo bitter that my parents had to force me to drink it when I was little (sometimes through threatening with a coathanger other times through bribery with candies). But yea, it does help bring health benefit so after I grow up, I will go look for them and drink even when I am not particularly sick--it helps boost the immune system anyways. One of the best benefits for those herbal tea shops is that you don't have to make them at home--they taste bitter so you can imagine how badly they smell during the making process. hahaha (BUT that kind of "nasty" smell has become part of my childhood memory now so I guess it's all part of the cultural upbringing in Guangdong).

[@tommywong4205]

The more nasty the smell and the more bitter the taste - the better and beneficial, healthwise, it is for you. That's I what I was told when I was little - also bribed with candies

It's supposed to help with the summer heat. It's called cool down tea for a reason. Really easy to get heatstroke so it's supposed to help against heatstroke. Pregnant women should not drink cool down herbal teas because it can flush out the fetus. In olden days before western medicine, super cool tea brews were used as an way to abort the fetus. Barley water is another one. Not suitable for pregnant women to drink

[@BenjiSun]

If you're living in the north, that sugarcane tea/soup is quite easy to make yourself and it's really great for winter when the humidity is quite low and the sugar is a good help for your body to produce warmth. so along with carrots, sugarcane, maogen(Indian comet grass roots), Job's tears, honey dates, you can also add some fresh pears for extra moisturizing. full name is 竹蔗茅根雪梨水. there's a lot of online recipes around. i've gotten a lot of Dalian people to eat chocolate during winter back in the mid 2000's when they're complaining about the cold while consuming way too much hard alcohol and eating malatang. They don't realize that alcohol will dehydrate them and spices overexhaust their heat by perspiring in the cold... they need fatty foods and good simple sugars.

[@SL-lz9jr]

I had an opportunity to check out Guangzhou once but my mom decided to leave after one night. We were staying with her childhood friend whom she hadn't seen in decades after moving to the US. My mom was concerned we wouldn't be comfortable sharing space in tight quarters. Meanwhile, it was my sister and my first time in China so we weren't picky. I think our parents assumed we would be too spoiled by western comforts to rough it in China. Mind you, we didn't complain about our accommodations or the squat toilets, etc. We were troopers. I cannot believe we missed out on exploring this city. We ended up spending the bulk of our trip in our hometown. Or rather my parents hometown in the countryside. We did go into the nearby cities but they were nothing like the mega-cities. We did see the typical Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, etc through a tour group. It was fine but I prefer to travel on my own vs a tour group. Plus it was all conducted in Cantonese and my Chinese is okay so I didn't understand a lot of what was said.

How fun is Peter! I wonder if the tea made for him was the tea my friend from Hong Kong would buy for me when I had a cold. It actually made me 🤮 it was so foul, but I never told her. I brought some to show my Doctor (newly arrived from Hong Kong) who had just finished his final studies to practice medicine in Canada. He laughed and said Western medicine is best; I thought that was an odd thing for him to say. Oh, I love this episode. I'm realising what I missed out on in the early 80's when I had the opportunity to work in Hong Kong. I bet I'd be living in some rural area, enjoying the food and scenery had I taken the job.

[@maxdc988]

Generally, Western medicine heals the symptoms while Chinese medicine targets the cause. Accordingly, one will get faster relief with Western medicine, while in the longer term the root cause of the ailment will be cured with Chinese medicine. But be wary that many practitioners of TCM are not certified and qualified, hence the lower efficacy or none offered by them. 😂

[@haozzy]

Western medicine is the best for more serious illnesses, but for small issues like sore throat, constipation etc chinese medicine is very useful.
