Why did the chef used a pan instead of wok to fry the rice ?

[@daviddavisrn]

I always enjoy your films. Thanks for details.

[@markkrell7845]

@@Davyjones5454 Because sea urchin taste turns no good if overheat. The chef use a thicker cast iron pan & gentle fire to keep the heat not too strong.

[@allstar1397]

The look away followed by a casual looking flip at 13:34 what swag.

[@markkrell7845]

Thanks again for documenting the wok work behind decent dinning experience from Hong Kong.

[@mikemckinnis3877]

Incredible skill with no waisted energy.

[@aahighknees]

let's appreciate how incredibly difficult that last fried rice dish is to make. All those ingredients have a high moisture content and different cooking temperature and rate. That, and coupled with the skill required to make fried rice would make that one of the most technically demanding dish to make. Absolute masterclass in Cantonese-styled cooking.

[@HDsharp]

Hence why he used a nonstick frying pan to cook it in.

[@Woozlewuzzleable]

Mad skill. Amazing.

[@allanvanuga9196]

Great video.

[@frankandrews58]

A....mazing, the precision and delicacy with which the chef cooked and constructed the meal was incredible. I have been fortunate to have similar experiences in the past and every little adjustment to each dish separates this experience from your everyday resataunt dramatically. (I noticed some comments suggesting he doesnt pay but in many cases the youtubers do because of how successful they are.....hence the quality of their videos)

[@sscc587]

Damn, listen to the roar of that dragon, and the fierceness of it's breath! I wish I have a blazing fire like that for my wok!

lost me when he switched out of the wok for the fried rice

[@gregory5749]

he looks like he's using metal utensil on a non-stick pan, i think it's teflon. if my suspicion is true, then don't eat there.

[@david49ers]

Still wait for some new talk video as they bring you food and tell us about the food tell then i got 3 video i watch at night for sleep

[@bigblockelectra]

Do you control the heat with a foot pedal on that wok?

[@fakirkulsofitv1533]

Süper 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯..

[@danube1001]

Does this cook control the flame intensity with his foot? Did not see him using stove knobs. Just wondering 🌭

[@Frodokeuh]

they control the valve with their knee (a valve with a long handle)

[@BobJones-nk6nl]

Do I see 10% service charge and then a line that says "gratuity"? Wow. What are they expecting? Another 10%? So the service charge is not part of the tip?

[@DaleSheehy]

Is it just me, or does the burner that the wok is on sounds like Tie Fighter from Star Wars when he picked up the wok?

[@horizon1219]

[@jayceollie4993]

How do they touch that wok sometimes? Crazy.

[@wtw5002]

Your hands become quite durable after working as a cook for a long time. I spent 10 years working as a line cook and my hands turned into leather gloves. It's been quite a few years since I worked that job, and I still have no feeling in my fingertips.

[@Frodokeuh]

they always use a rag whenever they lift the wok

[@jayceollie4993]

@@Frodokeuh Not every time. I was paying close attention. There were a couple occasions where they definitely did not. Close ups even. But yes, usually.

[@Frodokeuh]

@@jayceollie4993 depends on how hot the handle is i guess they always have a rag next to the wok as you can see

Excellent Cantonese chef. Clean hygienist kitchen. Quality menu. Worth every $202 spend.

[@1515cci]

.....the portions/quantity leaves a lot to be desired particularly if you’re paying that much. There was still some rice left over. Should’ve put all of it in the serving bowl.

Where the whole crab?

chopped up for other dishes lol

[@jacksak]

No disrespect here, just an observation, i.e. The last few cooking methods use a tremendous amount of oil and water which makes me wonder if any of it is recycled. I don't care one way or another, just observing and curious.

[@Frodokeuh]

if you look closely they have 2 buckets of oil one is frying oil which they do recycle and the other is fresh oil for the main cooking and for the water they have a bucket with an open tap

[@jacksak]

@@Frodokeuh Everything is very fresh and clean.

The camera has problems with auto focus, it's jarring and makes viewing for me little stressful. You should get a camera with better auto focus, also maybe shoot a little wider if its has focus problems.

You are literally watching what he does for a living...EATING STUFF AND MAKING VIDEOS ABOUT IT. He has millions of subs, restaurants obviously give him food for free in exchange for promotion.

[@digitnomad]

not sure if this worth a bill of $202 at the end.

The last fried rice is pretty hard to make

For two hundred dollars you get to eat a lunch for an hour that eight people took meticulous care of. Or for two hundred dollars you can get 50 year old escort with a habit. Sigh. I hate this world.

[@Alex-px2mb]

I guess if someone doesn't have something nice to say, as the old saying goes, they should say nothing at all. But it is 2022 and this is the internet, so I am going to say that I don't "feel it" when it comes to these expensive lunches and so forth recently in these restaurants. I suppose if you are sitting there in the beautiful surroundings at the table it helps carry the illusion, but IMHO the food is disappointing for the money. I actually feel that way about a lot of "haute" cuisine, which I start to think is a big vanity rip-off relatively easily - and i know they do small volume and have to charge more - but I just don't feel the romance here. Anything cooked in a big wok, to me, has to be plentiful, delicious and reasonably priced.

[@Frodokeuh]

you can't taste the food through a video but video's with commentary does help especially from local youtubers i've been following few hong kong foodies they make non biased video's there are difference between cheap wok food and expensive ones

[@drichinlord2953]

im the opposite. im in awe with chefs around the world cooking ingriedients to perfection.

[@Alex-px2mb]

@@drichinlord2953 It may be one of those transitory impressions on my part. I respect other people's opinions on the subject. I don't doubt the skill of the chefs. At other times I would have probably enjoyed this more. KZbin comments can't always convey the complexities of why people feel the way they do. I certainly don't want them to go out of business.
