Chinese Muslim AMAZING Cured Beef Recipe + Medicinal Black Chicken and Mountain Hike in Mae Salong

Salima Home Restaurant in Doi Mae Salong is one of THE most surprising and DELICIOUS meals - in the cool air of Thailand's high country, you don't want anything else for lunch!
(*I don't know what bit of amazement to comment on first, the location is that special!*)
Li speaks Chinese in this video more frequently than I speak Thai, the dishes we are loving for lunch today are much closer to the cuisine of Yunnan (South-West China) than any dishes I've had in lowland Thailand, and finally, we're sipping tea from this wonderful family's own tea fields, and drinking soup with flavors from the family's own garden -I think that this experience could easily qualify as a Perfect Day of Living.
An extremely fun video to shoot, to make, the morning climb to the temple was AMAZING (what a view right?!), continuing with a walk through the generations-old traditional Yunnanese-Thai mountain town, and finally finding this incredible family and their awesome place for lunch... we had a blast, and I'm very excited to share this video today with you!

1:34 Li !!! You look so beautiful with your plumeria flower in your ear🌸. In the Polynesian Islands... especially Samoa and Hawaii...the ladies wear a flower in their ear everyday. Wearing it on your right ear means you're available and on your left means you're taken☺️....kinda like a wedding ring 555😁. Very beautiful and peaceful place and I'm sure Li felt right at home there speaking the native language and experiencing the culture 🙏. Sending love and blessings to you Joel and Li 🙏🌈💗. P.S.

[@kochisales9131]

The eggs of Medicinal Black Chicken can be used effectively to treat severe headaches, headaches after giving birth, faintness, asthma and nephritis (acute or chronic inflammation of the kidney). The eggs are also an ideal nutritive, especially for old people and high blood pressure victims, since the cholesterol content is lower and free amino acids are higher than that of other kinds of birds. Both the meat and eggs are reckoned to be a rich source of protein (25.47% in flesh) and iron.

@@JoelsTastyRide That's so cool you and Li can visit places like this. Just wondering if Li ever felt she had left her home to go abroad to experience something very far away. Was there ever a time when you experience something like that in your lifetime too? A word about the black chicken-the Hmong people believed the same thing like Li was saying. Black chicken is supposed to be a really good medicine for women in the Hmong village. You probably already noticed this right away because Chiang Mai raised a ton of black chickens.

Have been visiting there for many years. From the view, it looks as if there are many large new buildings there now. Thankfully I still have some old photos and videos from long ago. Sadly as I thought it's really changed. It really looks unrecognizable from when I was there last not long ago. The former King's mother's ashes I believe are in the upper portion of the mountain temple. Back in about 2004, the temple was finished. It is rarely if ever opened. I was lucky enough to go inside and take photos long ago. Where did you stay and how much a night? The Muslim family where you ate before had a few rooms for rent.

if you two are going to Yunnan in the future, there are Hmong in Yunnan, Guizhou, Sichuan, and other southern Chinese provinces it will be a totally different experience because the Hmong there still keep the old traditions than the Hmong in Thailand, Laos, and overseas (US, Canada, France, French Guiana, and Australia)

Awesome video... again! I really like to see all the places you guys are taking us to, especially places that tourists do not travel to. Food looks great as well. Perhaps not culinary, but I believe it to be fulfilling anyway... Hope you guys are having / had a good time there!
