This is the last part of a series where I dive deep into Chengdu to find some iconic Sichuan flavors. In this video I meet up with a local friend who takes me around to taste all the iconic, delicious, and some crazy Sichuan foods in Chengdu! Make sure to stay tuned for the whole video as I finish my adventures off with an unbelievable HOT POT!!! Be sure to like and comment on the video if you enjoyed it! Make sure to subscribe if you want to see even more of my food adventures. Much love, Max McFarlin

Hugh hugh repect to you for being able to tolerate Sichuan flavours! And without even breaking a sweat! My eyes was watering and my nose was running from just seeing the red peppers. 😅 Then to top it off you even had pigs brain and tripe! Things I would never eat and I'm Asian in origin. 😆 Kudos to you Max! You're a real foodie and will forever have my respect! 😉

@Macoi246 жыл бұрын
jjtc Not at all. I’ve watched all the pros like migrationology, the food ranger, strictly dumplings, chasing a plate, chopstick travel, the best ever food review, etc. Doing what they do has always been a dream of mine. So one place I always wanted to go and travel to was Chengdu, having watched the food ranger(he is the king of Sichuan food!), I wanted to visit a lot of places that he has shown! I try to learn as much as I can from the people that have been doing it for awhile, but I want to create my own identity and create a channel people can enjoy! Thanks for watching though and I hope you liked it! If you have any recommendations or things you’d like to see then let me know👍🏻

Soleman Mehran Soleman hey thanks for watching one of my earliest videos! Wow, yeah I was super nervous in this video so I may come off as nervous, ha! Anyways I really don’t get why you’re going to troll on someone trying to chase their dream. I mean I’m sure you know me so well after watching one video though. I guess I don’t understand the negativity maybe it’s because deep down you’re angry and want to do something like this? Did someone hurt you? Idk man, but maybe you should travel to a foreign, put a camera in your face, and see how you come off. Anyways, I hope you figure out what’s bothering you deep down. As for me, I’ve wasted too much time on you so I’m out of here👋🏻
