Once again, striking fear into the hearts of waiters and waitresses across china.

[@firepandaz614]

🤣

[@YinkaAbroad]

🤣🤣🤣 they’ll make stories about me to pass down for generations!!

[@Lemon_nnn]

Dishes were demolished!

[@q0rpz368]

I'm 21 and would still consider you young! There's an aura about you or a curiousness/twinkle in your eye that is very cute (like the woman said) and I mean this all to say your vibe is immaculate! You inspire me to travel and learn new languages too! 🙌💕

[@YinkaAbroad]

Thank you! 🙏🙌🙌 I don’t even know how to respond, but I have a big smile right now 😆 I’m happy that I’m inspiring you!! Definitely take advantage and travel and see things if you can!! 🙏 I hope you’re doing well, and thank you for being here!!!

[@stan1167]

Will someone please give this man his whole chicken? "Please"😅🤣😂

[@YinkaAbroad]

Pleeeease 😭😭😭 I neeeeed it!!

[@MzVedaborntoJudah]

Yinka in his sponge bob squad pants voice! 😂🤣

[@butterflylofu]

Listen, as a canton speaker, I have much respect for your mandarin skills BUT as a food person, my regards for you are even bigger. Did you just eat a whole chicken, veggies, fried rice, plus the Hakka eggs with radish and a dessert - I bow to the king. 😂

[@YinkaAbroad]

🤣🤣🤣 yeah I did, easy work!!! Thank you!! 😬 maybe I should start training for competitive eating 🙌

[@MzVedaborntoJudah]

That would be a winner for your channel! 👏🏾👏🏾

[@mercyming5176]

[@angelameredith4132]

I love the look of all that food!! You are so nice and polite to the wait staff! Very nice!! Have a great week!!!

[@YinkaAbroad]

Thank you!!! You have a great week too! 🙌

[@jennn9637]

The food looks yummy! The raddish and egg dish gave me inspiration, maybe i’ll try to cook that myself.

[@lifeinterrupted678]

A whole chicken?! You can eat, Yinka! 😅 Thanks for taking us along! 😊

[@YinkaAbroad]

🤣🤣🤣 I’ve been working on my appetite from young!! I’m sure my parents are happy I buy my own food now 😭

[@debbieh7768]

That looked so good🤗 and I don’t really eat chicken but after that… chicken fillets here I come.. and Yinka don’t forget those bottles of water aren’t for decoration 😂 love your heart stay hydrated xx❤

[@YinkaAbroad]

Hope those chicken fillets taste good!! 😆😆 and I needed to hear that 🤣🤣 let me finish this bottle of water next to me!! Thank you!!! 🙏🙏🙏🙏 I hope you’re doing well!

[@rich-y1c]

i love those veggies

[@YinkaAbroad]

Happy to say I do too!! 😆😆😆

[@bribeee]

Those veggies look so good, never heard of sweet potato leaves being eaten! Love your videos 🥳

[@YinkaAbroad]

Yeah this was my first time hearing about them as well!! But they were goooooood!! I’m glad you like them, thank you for watching!! Hope you’re having a good week! 🙌🙌🙌

[@firepandaz614]

the food always looks so good i love how the menus are done in china compared to america

[@AlvinAu148]

The tofu pudding gave me school lunch rice pudding vibes with the jam on top back in my school days in england.

[@YinkaAbroad]

Yeah, it definitely gave me that feel as well from the appearance! I miss those rice puddings 😭😭😭

[@xingu7819]

Bravo on finishing the vegetables! I think you will also like Morning Glory 空心菜 and pea shoots 豌豆苗。

[@YinkaAbroad]

I’ll look out for those!!!!

[@MzVedaborntoJudah]

Such a nice guy…Give this man his whole chicken please! Keep spreading kindness and eating good sir! ❤️🫶🏾🫶🏾

[@YinkaAbroad]

Thank you!!! I definitely will! 💪🙌🙌🙌

[@lemons_s]

That garlic veg dish is such a staple in most asian home meals. It's a quick and easy, but tasty dish.

[@YinkaAbroad]

I may have to start making it myself! 😬😬😬😬

[@thedavid00100]

I guess the extended experience of urbanization has given the Chinese a very varied cuisine. I would love to see the Middle Kingdom one day

[@HungTai-wj5le]

I'm hakka and glad you are trying our food.

[@yauchunghang]

You are a food terminator! I wish I could eat that much!

[@kizumi2106]

Love everything you ate in this vid! Sweet potato leaves is amazing 🤤🤤 I'd love it if more places cut up the meat smaller in fried rice here.

[@DeannaLSmith-p4u]

Yinka another great experience eating with you. I know for you it wouldn't be necessary but if you wanted to can you take your leftovers out of the restaurant there? As a vegetarian glad to hear the vegetables were one of the shining stars!❤❤❤

[@YinkaAbroad]

Yeah you can take your leftovers, they have bags and containers for you to do so, I just think they like to make sure that nothing gets wasted, and that people don’t over order. And yeah, I’m actually happy about that too! 🤣 now I need to learn how to make it while reducing the amount of oil in it 😬🙏

[@mamimami2766]

❤ from Indonesia. You can speak mandarin. So amazing.

[@Meowminx]

I still remember seeing your vid on IG and I was skeptical about you finishing all the food, yet all I could say was, you inhaled the food and now I don't even doubt that you can finish the food 😅😂 I cry at how affordable they are over there compared to here in England 😭

[@YinkaAbroad]

🤣🤣🤣🤣 I’m glad I’ve gained your trust!! And yeah, I can’t imagine trying to eat this way back in England 😭

[@dAfoodie101]

oh. my. god. sweet potato leaves are my favorite after pea shoots! i just always forget about them because i can’t find them outside of restaurants lol 😂 so glad you like them too!!

[@YinkaAbroad]

You’re the second person who mentioned pea shoots, I definitely need to try these

[@sh417dy]

This festival, it's actually a time when all family members will gather and have a meal together.. I'm Indonesian Chinese, we also celebrate this festival.. Actually there are 5 kinds of these festival: 1. a night before Lunar New Year 2. on the 15th day of Lunar New Year 3. on the 5th month of Lunar Calendar, also known as Dragon Boat Festival where we all eat a Bak Cang (this is how we pronounce it here), a triangular pyramid shape sticky rice with meat, mushrooms, peanut, and salty egg yolk; 4. on the 8th month of Lunar Calendar also known as Moon Cake Festival, we eat a moon cake, obviously. 5. on the 21st / 22nd December also known as Winter Festival where we eat a glutinous rice ball that's colored with red and white.

[@jianingzhang3121]

Made my day

[@YinkaAbroad]

I’m glad!! Thank you for watching!! 🙏

[@DontworryboutitEVA]

Dude! Was that your only meal of the day? I would be sleep for two days rubbing my belly! I definitely feel full just watching this video. Thank you! 😁

[@YinkaAbroad]

Nahhh, I ordered some McDonalds, some cream puffs and a litre of fresh orange juice this evening! 🤣🤣🤣

[@DontworryboutitEVA]

@@YinkaAbroad I would be rolling like a donut! 🤣🤣

[@sapiophile545]

​@@DontworryboutitEVA you're adorable

[@cyberbemon]

​@@YinkaAbroadyou got like a spare stomach or something? 😂😂

[@YinkaAbroad]

@@cyberbemon I very well might, but I only use it on the weekend normally 😆

[@Meowminx]

Tofu pudding, it's like what we have similar in the Philippines that we have for a snack called taho (tah-hô) served with sweet syrup and some sago pearls 😊

[@DDDDDD-sn9uw]

How hard was it to learn to speak Chinese so well? How many years did it take?

[@Aevilbeast]

Man, those kids aren't the only ones impressed that you were able to finish all of that...I admit I was a bit worried that your eyes were a just bigger than your stomach, but I was definitely proven wrong. That was a serious amount of food too, I could see two maybe even three people happily sharing that same amount. Maybe you should try a food challenge one day? I'd love to see how you would do! Also, while I can imagine it can be a bit annoying or frustrating at times...I honestly think it's admirable that in China a lot of restaurants will either warn or even refuse to serve you more food than they think you can eat, to ensure food doesn't get wasted. I've seen it quite a few times in a bunch of food/travel videos in China, and at first it really surprised and confused me, but it makes a ton of sense and anything that can prevent food wastage is good in my books. Especially since in so many restaurants don't care how much food you order, and couldn't care less if it's eaten or not, as long as they get paid and are making money. Keep up the great work and I look forward to more videos!

[@ElizeLane]

Shrift=virtue in China

Wish I could come and have a meal with you 😊 hehee

[@Kee03242]

They always trying to tell you how much food you should order! 😂😂😂

[@Grinch385]

[@MrPokefanatic97]

I hope my Japanese can be as good as your Mandarin one day! Love your videos! Those kids being impressed by the food😂 showed all the doubters wrong

[@YinkaAbroad]

You definitely can, and can be better!! Just keep it up!!! The future you will thank you! 🙌 and yeah, that’s the second time I’ve had to prove my ability there 🤣🤣🤣

Water chestnut might be the crunch in the soup

[@devingiguere4996]

Sir, I noticed a dark line on your nail bed. You may want to check with a dermatologist. This is often a health indicator.

[@YinkaAbroad]

Ohhh, okay, I’ll look into that!!

[@Katherine-o4w]

Yinka,u are so interesting ❤

[@holdthelight11]

I feel like you could murder one of those food challenges

[@YinkaAbroad]

I might have to try find one and attempt it 😆😆

[@christophercherniss1906]

Why do you have to censor where you work?

[@ohemaaprempeh858]

do they not allow leftovers to be taken home?

[@YinkaAbroad]

They do, but I still think they’d just rather not make food that may get wasted

[@rich-y1c]

Lemme get that whole chicken

[@YinkaAbroad]

YESSIIIIIR!!!!!!

[@Miseremei71]

Yinka, please don't hold the chopsticks in your mouth like that. 😅

[@YinkaAbroad]

What did I do? 👀

[@readyplayerrogue9045]

Haven't been watching your videos long, so I just realized you are left handed as well. Being another left handed individual like yourself, I always wondered if you get any remarks or looks using your left hand? Call it a stereotype, but I heard that using chopsticks with your left hand is looked down upon.

[@YinkaAbroad]

No actually, I think I’ve only had a comment like once or twice about me using my left hand

[@PartyPix360]

For a meal like this how much will it cost?

[@YinkaAbroad]

Altogether the food cost 271RMB (£29.91 / $38.11)

[@noyamoh]

Pretty sure I know the taste of Potato 😂

[@DavieD609]

The manager was definitely flirting, she was giving you plum juice for fertility 🤣
