Chinese Street Food in Chengdu is some of the best in China. My parents came on a family holiday to travel in China with me and try the best street food in Chengdu. We tried a lot of Chinese snacks and Chinese street foods together, and my parents loved the insane spicy food! I brought them to a famous "fly restaurant", meaning a restaurant with apparently low cleanliness but incredibly delicious food.

Street food around the world is so diverse, and I'm so happy to be living here in Chengdu, China, and to be able to show my parents some of the best street food in China! Foodrangin' is so fun! Chinese cooking is incredibly delicious wherever you go in China, with 8 major Chinese cuisines to try, amazing Chinese restaurants in Chengdu, and to be able to travel China to taste it all is truly amazing. The spicy Sichuan food is out of the world! Walking into the kitchen to watch the chefs cook the Sichuan cuisine is always fun, I really recommend coming here!

HUGE THANKS to ExpressVPN for offering all Food Ranger viewers 3 months free and 49% off their yearly package using this link: ExpressVPN.com/Thefoodranger . Travelers need ExpressVPN to stay safe online and to unblock any site. I personally use it for Netflix, even while at home in Canada, but also while traveling to unblock content and episodes that are geoblocked, and I also use it for security, because airport wifi and hotel wifi is often very insecure, leaving my data vulnerable. By connecting to one of their servers around the world, it’s just like my computer or phone is in that location, and all data sent while connected to their VPN is secure, safe, and private from others to see, so I know that my data won’t be hacked or looked at by others. Thanks so much for watching, and we have tons more videos coming up for you! Please leave me a comment below letting me know what you thought about this episode, thanks so much!!!

[@user-ly8rc6mg2r]

you communicate with locals so fluently. Your parents must be very proud.

[@TennesseeCheeZe]

I think it's funny how freaked out the locals are, they can't concentrate on his questions because they are too busy talking about how good he speaks lol.

[@dancingtroll3823]

声音听不得批评的 lolllllll his accent if off but that's to be expected

[@VictorMinchihLee]

@@dancingtroll3823 The intonation is way off sometimes, too, but the important thing is he can get folks to understand him. Ultimately that's all that matters.

Shout out to Food Ranger's parents. Good people.

Oh yeah! This was so much fun taking my parents around Chengdu! Hope you enjoy the vid! My favourite part was the spice market after our street feast! Follow my insta for photos of these food journeys at the food ranger! Thanks! Happy new year!

[@georgieice5801]

The Food Ranger your parents are Canadian. How did you get to China?

[@jrLove5]

It’s so nice to see you’re parents have an amazing spirit and attitude I’m sure they’re proud of you but you gotta be pretty proud of them for being good ppl who raised a good son. God bless on your many travels

[@NoWay23548]

What a wonderful episode! Must be great to have such young parents that you really get along with. Treasure that!

[@DragonRider520]

This is the only channels where the vids are 10-15mins long, and I watch them all and still wants more.

your parent is so cool and they eat durian too

[@missrose5261]

Lovely family, your parents must be so proud. I enjoyed so much that I watched twice.

[@thefoodranger]

+Miss Rose Hi Miss Rose! Wow that is so nice to hear!

[@Steven-jn9py]

When you ask 这个可以吃吗 means: is this safe to eat. People will get confused. Next time say 来一份（lai yi feng） instead of 可以吃吗（ke yi chi ma） or 可以吃一个（ke yi chi yi ge） makes you more authentic and legit.

[@chrisWTG]

lmfao seriously sounds like he used a translator

[@dongboxiao315]

I think its great for him to ask 这个可以吃吗? It means" Is it eatable?" In Chinese food it's actually not everything you see in a dish eatable. For example, you won't eat the cavings in some dishes and won't eat the spicy peppers in Chongqing Spicy Chicken (歌乐山辣子鸡).

[@Steven-jn9py]

Dongbo Xiao bruh.. it translate to that but it doesnt mean that. its like saying：its bomb doesnt mean theres a bomb yo. it meant its so dayum gooooood.

[@chrisWTG]

Steven Wang stop hating on xiao bao bao

[@user-zo4eb4bk1l]

It also means "can I eat this one?" Not only asking whether the food is safe to eat but also asking the permission from the sellers

[@VictorSheng85]

Have been watching all of your videos for the past two months. And you make me have the urge to travel to China to have all those awesome food. I also loved your review and remark of every food you tasted. Bravo and happy new year.

[@thinlet1]

This is a cool reflection of the impact of diversity in Canada and how it has enriched people like these folks.

[@VeegovonDOOM]

Tenzin Thinley how does this reflect diversity in Canada? They are Canadians who bought tickets to China.

[@thinlet1]

The food ranger has cultural competency, he moves with ease and his language skill helps but he is also received immediately as someone familiar by the people. There is very little cultural barrier when he talks to the locals. Such competency usually comes from living in a diverse environment and from good parenting.

[@si_quest]

Tenzin Thinley completely agree. The number one gift a parent can give his child is traveling and experiencing different cultures. It makes you open minded and respectful of cultures. You appreciate the world far more. The language skills is a big bonus .

[@wtfisditvoorbullshit]

Absolute nonsense statement

Your parents are so sweet Trevor. I love how your dad is just in love with all the dishes.

[@MsCherade9]

Your parents are lovely, I wish I could visit too! You don't see many people who are disabled, using wheelchairs out and about in much of China unfortunately. I have very fond memories of eating Twice Cooked Pork as a kid, my best friend was Chinese and I used to eat at her house quite regularly. Her family were the only Chinese people in 35 miles around us then.

[@revinaque1342]

Tai hao le! I'd love to see more vids with your parents. :)

Depending on the family, the kids do have a say in the match up. Tradition is slowly changing.

[@mtube620]

Yes. The parent try to make the initial connection but it's up to their kids to decide to date, accept, or reject. The kids work in the cities, parents can't force anything.
