What is Real Chinese Food?

Support us and the channel on Paypal!
paypal.me/advchina
Do you know what is considered real Chinese food? It certainly is not your lo mein, pork fried rice, and sesame chicken. We live in China, and are lucky enough to eat real Chinese food everyday. But the real excitement comes when you go to the countryside in different Chinese provinces. That's when you see the real culinary diversity show it's head.
Is it dirty? Yeah, a lot of the time...
Is it delicious? Yes! Most of the time.
Does it get boring? No.
China is known for it's food, so come with us as we go dig up some local grub in a random village in the Chinese countryside and compare it to food that we get in the cities in China.

Not true. I'm Australian with bad mandarin. All the Chinese i have met have been so incredible.

Without some people in china i would not still be here. some come up to me in line to translate when they see i can't understand.. we immediately become friends on wechat and talk often. within 6 weeks of my arrival i had 40 unknown friends from random meetings.

[@kirkandscotty]

My first experience of "real" Chinese food was in Chengdu and then in the middle of nowhere, Liangshan. But the food was amazing. I miss true Sichuan and Yunnan food so much. All the places we ate were really clean, and even the restaurants that were rundown and old, and they were pretty much picked at random based on where we were and hungry. Also, tofu and eggplant are so well prepared in China, they're absolutely shit in the USA in my opinion.

[@XiangC6]

U went to the right place for food for sure. Chengdu's all about food :)

[@RenatoT-si7vv]

the hot pot in Chengdu is amazing and the dry meat that they sell in every corner.

[@merinsan]

I think I went to all the crappy places in Chengdu then :( We went to one place and had yu xiang rou, and some other dishes. It was no where near as spicy as I expected. Honestly, I have had spicier Sichuan food here in Melbourne.

[@kirkandscotty]

+merinsan Did you ask for it to be spicy? Sometimes, in my experience at least, they would make it less spicy if i didn't asked them to make it mala. I assume its because they think foreigners don't like spices. But you seriously missed out then... The first time I had Chengdu hot pot, I simultaneously cried and ate it because it was so spicy, yet so good.

[@marcothewiiu5113]

Local from Liangshan. It's good to see my hometown been known to more and more people out there ;-)

[@nanxingluo4902]

I am a Chinese yet I fullly agree with you that food safety has a long way to go in China. I dont understand why my fellow countrymen get so triggered by the issues we have. Keep up the good work, you guys are awesome:).

[@evanhiemtoranon5321]

I believe the purpose of commenting on Chinese food on both good and bad sides is to let more people to know more about Chinese food and culture. This is not blindness but for educational and informational purpose.

[@nimuil]

There may have safety issues of the food in China. It is safe or risk as same as anywhere else in the world. Relax, 1.3 billion Chinese people are living safely at any single day with 3 meals.

[@blackwingz55]

@Kikuli Kokuli We have that in the US. Search Hell's Kitchen and watch it. There are some restraunts that's just as dirty in the US. It boils down to the owner of the restraunt if they are educated enough to clean their restraunt front and their kitchen.

[@charlesmartin2690]

Excellent show! I've watched this video several times since you posted it and am simply amazed just how incredible this Hakka style farm-to-table restaurant was you both enjoyed and shared with us. The tour of their operation was just so wonderful, and particularly their frankness and sincerity to even strangers, which I find are the most enjoyable aspects of rural folk throughout East Asia. Thank you so much for sharing this experience with us of that lovely family. Back when I was in college in the 90s, many Chinese families in the U.S. would rent or sharecrop farmland so they could grow their own vegetables and sell the excess in Chinese restaurants and farmer's markets on the weekends for income while Chinese government-sponsored students with all their tuition and rent already paid.

For all of the preoccupation with spitting in China, its fun to watch as so many sanctimonious Westerners, ignorant of their own cultural history, presume to criticize others when they ironically continue to have issues with the subject in the West. One would think that after 100+ years of attempting to use the law to eliminate the practice in the West, that the issue would be moot - which is - surprise - NOT the case.

Totally awesome little restaurant there - it's really neat how they are going to the trouble to raise their own produce and poultry, coupled with the general cleanliness of the place. These people really care about their chosen line of business. Also, since they can raise a lot of their ingredients, they can save money - a nice synergy when you can find it. Funny thing is, I seldom had any digestion issues in China when eating at mid-range to relatively cheap places... a huge factor in this is the quality and amount of the cooking oils being used... that can be a problem anywhere in the world.

talking about friendly people. My family are from Bangladesh, whereas, I am from London, everytime I have gone there I have found locals very friendly, inviting me to their homes and eating with them. When I've told my family, that live over there, that I did this, they were angry because they think it is dangerous for me to do that. But locals, especially in rural areas, do not really see many foreigners, and you. accepting their invitation and going means the world to them. They can show you how they live, what they eat, or just have someone to share their experience with. They can also learn how your lives are different. I really do think, this isn't unique to china, but places where tourists don't really come that often.

And they were so friendly, and everybody in the village would come out and all together they would take me to a kitchen and prepare their favorite foods, which always included snails. They really enjoyed watching my reactions to eating snails. Delicious, actually. But they have this wine that they call Retsina ... talk about an acquired taste! Retsina tastes like turpentine, and I couldn't take it at first. Eventually I developed a taste for it.

The British guy was so rude and filled wit negativity. If he sees dirty and garbage and unhygienic places every where he better stay in england wit doors shut and he's air purifier on max speed.

As a Chinese American, let me tell you something interesting. I used to live in Vermont, a very rural part of America. There was no racial diversity whatsoever. I was like a banana in the milk. I also went to your neighboring country, Zimbabwe, as a tourist. Banana in the ink. People were also very excited to see me when I was in Vermont as well as Zimbabwe. Just like the way these Chinese people responded to you. But can you believe? Even in America, you still have places like Vermont to this very day, where there is hardly any racial diversity at all. Much kudos to that young man trying to speak English to you, by the way, especially according to what he said, he never had anyone to practice English with. Impressive! Wow, you mean to tell me there are still places in China, where people had never seen foreigners?

[@Ironclad17]

John Yang Yeah that sounds like Vermont.

[@GrandMasterAbe]

Yes, Chinese American. That is the People's Republic of China. If you want a better version, go to Taiwan.

[@cochan7347]

"there are still places in China, where people had never seen foreigners" - yes, check those villages in Guizhou, they hide in the mountains and even the local government can't really keep in touch with them

[@margaretwilson8736]

The Vermont people ask to take a picture with you? Tell them they're too English and walk away. That will teach them.

[@bikinggal1]

banana in the milk!! That's hilarious

[@madmaxfeb]

good rural people, people of the Earth.

[@AdrianJNyaoi]

Authentic Hakka food; I would not have any problem eating from that shop.

[@GoddessTaliana]

Thank you for this video! A lot of people think Chinese restaurants/buffets served real Chinese food. HA! And I see that N7 tag! Good job, Commander ~

[@rcrichard8969]

Holy shit, those chinese people are way too friendly compare to americans. if u just pop into any american village food place and wanna check out their kitchen u'll get some nasty reactions.

[@isfire8141]

[@CCNightcore]

6:14 "Nah bro I am not about that fish life." lol

[@nathanli1461]

that actually was a subtitle joke, what Winston said was just"no, thanks"

[@CCNightcore]

Ah, thanks for the clarification, I suspected as much.

[@DruNature]

"hey dude" haha great video

[@LeGheyTrash]

Lol we Asians know how to cook tofu and it makes me cringe how some people especially the average white person trying to cook tofu by just adding salt and pepper instead of putting it in sauce or in soups like how tofu is supposed to be made

[@cra139]

I know I'm late to this video, but I think it's really cool how you guys balance the topics about china in your videos. You tell the negatives or the realistic viewpoints about the country's culture and its people, but then you also show the awesome positives about the country, like the people you were interacting with in this episode. It was pleasant to see you guys talk chinese to the locals, and how welcoming they all were.

[@imhellag]

yo shuaige lol

[@elsatj8712]

What does shuaige means?

[@Weiziji]

Elsa TJ Chinese pinyin.it refers tohandsome men(except women)

[@bobcanish]

I honestly think this is THE single best video I have ever watched. Made me want to learn Chinese, and sad that I can't speak with people like that, and have those experiences. Amazing work guys.

[@ashleyward3252]

Dope Mass Effect jacket!

[@joserizal8331]

[@littlerobotfairy9710]

Here in America, we have American food with Chinese characteristics.

[@Aaronschinaguide]

Great video. I like talking Chinese with the locals and subtitling it. Hope to see more like this in the future.

[@ccninesevenone3632]

i also have to admit im an incredibily picky eater but when I went to China, all the "expansive" places i went with "western food" tasted horrible until I finally went to proper resteraunts were I saw local people and it was in those places I had the best food ever in china and it was so unbelievably cheap :O

[@Saturn-uz6jc]

not first

[@b617_3]

Sal De'Friez you were actually first

[@Saturn-uz6jc]

scott skoo no

[@cfov]

It makes me smile when I see humans from different backgrounds being kind to each other. For a few minutes it makes me forget just how horrible they can be to each other. Thanks for the smile

[@maugustyniak]

And this is why the Japanese laugh at the Chinese, yet let them manufacture some of their products.
