Hand-Pulled Longevity Noodles From Xi’an Famous Foods

[@usernnammee12345ffghjjjjjjjk]

Two really great guys. They donated $60k (one weeks revenue) to suicide prevention charities after Anthony Bourdain's death. Bourdain visited their first location when they were on the edge of bankruptcy and the television attention helped their business succeed.

[@shadyzbabii420]

Amazing. I need to buy their cook book too!

[@mon6745]

[@jzyyz]

@Dorothy Tang Might be gross revenue, not net income.

[@Sonny1065LV]

Buy the book, totally changed my cooking routine and elevated my game, still freaks my girl out when I'm slapping the cutting board when making the Biang Noodles. Lmao

I love how they really dig into the noodles everytime after filming.

[@nootherchance7819]

I am lucky to live by a Xi'ans Famous Foods. I feast there if I ever have a bad day or to celebrate a small win :D

[@48162342]

Same but mostly go on days when my nose is blocked haha

[@Drthompsononthemic]

Ok, but what is the Chinese equivalent to “Black don’t crack”? Because dad looks like he could be his brother! Is this what longevity noodles do to you?!?! 😂

[@juelzthesantana]

Asians don’t raisin! 😂

[@AT-jm4dl]

The dad does look older for sure, but his skin is still very smooth, except for around the eyes. I bet this is because he's probably working really long hours everyday in the kitchen so doesn't get exposed to the sun very much and get sun damage.

[@jzyyz]

Look up the "average asian aging process" meme

Ok- I love this duo 🥰! So much good and interesting information, delicious dish, and great personalities 🤗. Besides the fact that the dad is also the king of drip, I love his silent proudness as his son presents and translates. So sweet.

[@jeantan5738]

Love your Demonstration to make Longevity Noodles. Thanks David & Jason.

[@MrAngeu]

his dad speaking so standard mandarin makes me nostalgic...

[@TheAxeaman]

Sorry, I have no clue about mandarin so what do you mean by that?

[@MCS-jz1in]

Dad: speaking chinese all the way till the end of the video suddenly... "delicious" cracks me up, lol

[@Woozlewuzzleable]

I wish their restaurant was in my city, I would go at least once a month to cure my noodle cravings.

[@tishw4576]

I love this family. They love what they do and are never bothered to share their recipes.

Love his dad's hair! ;)

I love these dudes! Dad is cool AF! Love the vibes

[@ONTHEPASSWITHMAX]

Excellent video! I love these types of noodles. Its amazing how simple the recipe is, but the technique must take years to master!

[@bradleycharlesgrowkits]

I love all the history and cultural education he pairs with the cooking. If they had their own show I'd watch it all the time.

[@edger7425]

Coolest dad ever

[@gchow6009]

Some call the chicken dish ‘big plate chicken’. I follow a uyghur KZbin channel Dolan Chick for making this noodle and chicken dish. She gives very detailed techniques how to pull the noodles.

[@killercaos123]

God I love traditional Chinese food so much.

[@headsh0tpker]

Very clear explanations by the son!

Am I the only one that thought the father was a friend around the same age as the son before we realised their relationship?

Something about the way his dad said "delicious" gave me vibes.

[@GreatSmithanon]

This is a really interesting dish. Looks absolutely delicious. I've been wanting to get into cooking more asian-inspired dishes to provide something sharply different to the medieval european/british style cooking I usually like to do.

This really feels like something i watched on this channel a few years ago. Deja Vu

[@kneadie]

You must be thinking of their Hand-Ripped Noodles video on this channel. I initially thought the same thing!

[@Sheepy007]

Wtf? In your first munchies video from 2 years ago, the father looked 20 years older than he does now

[@mnharris10]

Nice! Those are some beautiful look at noodles! Also nice to bring focus on this region of China were so many people are suffering right now because of the oppressive government. I know they didn’t talk about it, because it’s a food video, but hopefully people will try to learn more.

[@heuksalman]

How do they not have same last name?

[@caimaccoinnich9594]

Father in law or step father maybe?

[@Cc-qc7fl]

Most likely the son took the mom’s last name... not that uncommon for Chinese, especially if the dad already has an older brother to carry on the family name

[@bfrost7]

where is ferideh???

[@kennethchongweithart7905]

I'm kinda curious that his surname is Wang and his dad's Shi...

[@fourtii8707]

Must be step father

Probably father-in-law.

Maybe Wang is his mom’s surname

[@haotian987]

他们为什么姓不一样？

[@gab.lab.martins]

Honest question, asked by someone who lived abroad and whose first language isn't English: how would you live in a country for decades and not learn the language? I know the Chinese community in the US used to be very insular, but it's been decades since Chinese food became a staple for westerners. I'm not attacking the guy, just really trying to understand how it's possible to not only live but have a successful business in a place where you can't communicate efficiently.

[@AT-jm4dl]

I think the older generations that came over to America tend to socialize and feel comfortable only among people similar to themselves. I think his son (and his other children?) does all of the interfacing with the non-Chinese customers and clients anyway. But we don't know if the father doesn't speak or understand English though. Maybe he's just not comfortable speaking English in front of a camera.

[@jzyyz]

In a different video, the son said they moved to the US when he was 8, so "decades" might be a stretch. It's probably just barely two decades based on how old the son looks. The son is the one who manages the business side, the father is the master chef, and for that he doesn't need English. But as another person commented, he probably does know English, but may not feel comfortable speaking it in front of the camera.
