I Tried China’s Famous Whole Fried Chicken in Xi’an! 🇨🇳

[@chenliang2007gm]

this fry chicken is not just fry, it cooked by first boiling, then steaming then fry, that’s why it’s so special.

[@vinuVA]

Do they mix the fry batter with the boiled stock?

[@JMAK2024]

Ooohhh

[@stevechan3689]

Thank you so much for making so many episodes for my hometown !!! Hope you enjoy all the food!

[@shannondore]

That meal looked so good. Especially the chicken. And the bell tower was beautiful. Thanks for filming that.😊

Thank you for your support!

[@tylersutton8327]

Much love from California. My family and I love watching your videos together. We always get so excited when you have a new upload. Big fans from the start.

[@HerrBrutal-bl2fk]

The fascinating and educative videos Mark Wiens and his wife make are truly in a class of their own among all the material available on KZbin (and the Internet in general). This channel has over 900 000 followers - and deserve plenty more! I always recommend it to all of my family, friends and to other people I meet. Greetings from Sweden!

The pork with peppers look delicious with steamed rice 😊

[@carolinemah9972]

I would love to go to Xian , and try all their wonderful cuisines, chickens, pork, fried vegetables. You get so much benefits in your travel!

[@wanghao2256511]

Love the content and Kudos to Mark to pronounce all the difficult Chinese words. Just one thing - the province Shaanxi is similar to Shanxi (two different provinces). For the one Xi'an is in, you place a third tone on Shaan. Otherwise it's a different province, with the first tone (which Mark used). It just so happens that there's another province name that is only different by the tone on the first syllable. You should totally go visit the other province, too.

[@abigailhokai9131]

That chicken Mark was the centerpiece so tender and crispy at the same, love you and Ying breaking the wishbone❤

Hi mark, huge fan form Bangladesh. I've watching your vedios from the bringing of your KZbin journey. You are a great human being, may God Bless you and your family. Be Happy, Safe Safe and Healthy..❤🌍🇧🇩

You have a great way in tell people what foods are out there and the story behind,the food and all the great dishes are made. The food was cooked very well and with care and understanding and a lot of effort to make the perfect meal for everyone.

[@swissfoodie3542]

I love most food in China, and the cuisine is so different in each province, and as like noodles and dumplings a lot, Shaanxi is great. However, my favorite is Sichuan. So I hope that you will also go there Mark.

[@WarrenKLiu]

I kinda want him to skip Sichuan and hit Hunan, just to see if he can take Hunan spicy since Sichuan spicy is technically less spicy than Hunan when it comes to chilli spicy.

[@leishi8911]

Thank you, I did do some videos in Sichuan a couple years ago on my main channel. But would love to visit again, and I would love to visit Hunan as well.

I always thought a proper whole, battered and deep fried chicken dish was missing from Chinese cuisine. Now I know I just have to travel to Xi'an for it! Thanks!

[@alejandrodominguez5065]

[@victorlui5955]

Fried chicken is my favorite!!! Yum!!! 😍 What is the bestest fried chicken that you ever ate Mr. Mark Weins? 🥰

[@jiataocui2414]

The third green dish which called 槐花麦饭，mixed by Sophora Flower and Flour, usually eat with Lamb fat Chill sauce

[@evelynma9287]

I’m positive it’s not 槐花. The flower is a white flower. The 麦饭 he had is more likely to be celery leaf or some other green leafy vegetable. And it’s the stir fried version, so no sauce needed.

[@LP18888]

Chinese fried chicken is very special, it was my favorite food from my grandmother and the Chinese didn't learn it from black cooks during Korean War :)

[@EarthaAustin-u8y]

welcome to China! China is a great country of delicious food, no one can eat all of them because it is too much .and btw, i really love watching your video hahahaha, your food channel makes me appetitive at night(i always watch them at night )

[@MichaelAustralia]

haha,Hi Mark,the right way to eating this shredded noodles is dipping into the garlic sauce rather than putting the whole part of noodles into the garlic sauce😂(as 3:48 this staff told u).if you do so , i think it really smell strongly. Anyway, I really appreciate that you can come my hometown Xi'An and let the worldwide people know this city, hope you enjoy this journey

[@SahanaChakrabarty-i9z]

Thanks for the video, Mark. Not much bean sprout is used in Bengali cooking in my town.

[@AussieAngeS]

Hi Mark that chicken looks fabulous. I love the food variety they have, the noodles and dumplings look so delicious and chillies are a staple in their diet.

[@cosmoobserver3416]

This dish is considered a mix of staple food and vegetables in the central plains of China, including Henan, Shandong, northern Anhui and northern Jiangsu. You need to add a lot of garlic water or sesame oil when served, otherwise it's too dry.

Yes, Chang An is the capital of China in the Tang Dynasty. When you see young ladies wearing low neckline, flowing high-waisted Hanfu in Xi'an, it is in the style of the Tang Dynasty.

[@HerrBrutal-bl2fk]

Chinese food is found all over the world and has influenced cooking styles as well as techniques in several other countries. I live in Scandinavia, where there have been Chinese restaurants since the 1940s. Everyone in my country, Sweden, has grown up with Chinese food. However, most Chinese restaurants in the West have very similar menus which don't reflect the wide diversity of Chinese cuisine. I hope this will change in the future as all of China has amazing food. Just like Italian food is much more than pizza and pasta and Swedish food goes beyond Swedish meatballs, Chinese food is much more than what people in many other countries know as 'Chinese food'. We should all be proud of our own cultural heritage and we should also be willing to get to know the cultures of other nations.

[@masamarc7910]

@HerrBrutal-bl2fk 谢谢您！传统的中国料理，必须来中国！希望您能来中国，爱你

You do the best food videos since forever ago! I miss your "Mark Weins's lean back when tasting delicious foods from around the world!" All other channels copy you; including Mythical Kitchen. You should collab with them... (you can pitch) let's see if they can create a dish as awesome as one of your travels. They like to do two teams, and you be the judge. You also should do a collab with Uncle Rodger. I like your style better, but those guys are good too. He has a mall restaurant in Malaysia... Be modern, be positive, be creative! -Marco (from Washington D.C.) Vietnam, China, Cambodia, and Ecuador over the las 15 years.

Hate to say this but that place is overpriced. You can get delicious meals from side vendors for a fraction of the cost. Anyone going there should bring a local guide along or know Chinese otherwise you will get shafted.
