I only just found your channel a week ago and I'm already lowkey addicted lol. I always get super hungry watching them and I think your filming style is great and really easy to watch. Thanks for posting!
I don’t understand so many hateful comments. You guys presented the food quality in a very positive light. And the chef in a very positive light. And positive respect for the village reputation and the local people. I’ve been in Chinese restaurants filled with local Chinese where loud talking is part of the ambiance. Maybe it’s the click bait video title and they did not even watch the video. My take? Just keep being your freely loving life selves and don’t be intimidated. (It’s what people like)
Happy new year Amy. I've never had that Shunde goose before but there is a version of it exactly the same here although I'm not sure if the taste is the same as they may have different ingredients. In terms of how it cooked and the skin, it should be the same. Well thanks for a wonderful 2021, looking forward to this year. From the land below the wind. Salute! (In fact after thinking about it Amy, you seem to be always above and below us about the same distance from Australia and the same now in China.)
Been fixing my PC all day as well as trying yet another keyboard that doesn't seem to cut it....ooof.... but it's all good, because now I'm celebrating by watching my favorite Blondie! I hope you guys didn't get your feelings hurt by that woman, you know how sometimes an "I-E" can be quite...blunt. Lol. She was just a little old skool and the cameras probably made her nervous, honestly with all that is going on over there in terms of influencers, media, etc...well anyway..., please take care of yourself, we wish you the best and a safe return home whenever that may be. I can't wait to see you and your folks go out on some adventures again!
The vocabulary and description which Jasmine uses to describe the milk once she change so to mandarin is incredible. The depth of flavour and the nuance of textures changes dramatically from when she speaks in English.

Why wouldn’t they dare, especially for tourists. They aren’t gonna lose business. I wonder what the actual reason she got kicked out was. “Taking up too much space” is such a poor excuse. I’m pretty sure a restaurant can kick you out for no reason at all, but there’s obviously a reason they were kicked out.

Happy New Year Amy... May 2022 be as sweet and delish as ever... Lots of happiness, joy, love, and great health... Awww... Jasmine is leaving... I am going to miss the two of you hanging out and sharing meals together...
@@BlondieinChina Yay... that's great news! I look forward to more videos of you two introducing us to great places and great dishes... Does Aleese live in the same city? I would love to see the two of you collaborating for another video... it was so much fun watching you two when you filmed at Starbucks and Pizza Hut (Duryon pizza). Aleese cracks me up...
Typically restaurants are for people who want to eat, not film and document; so they probably wanted to prioritize customers who were going to do just that. In Japan where I'm from, they wouldn't kick you out, but normally people would make a phone call and notify a staff if it was okay to film a youtube video, then they usually prepare a nice secluded table for you that wouldn't interrupt other customers. It's just an etiquette thing.
Me too, I don't want to eat at a restaurant that allows people to film inside. I go to restaurants to eat and relax and I can't relax when people are filming because it makes me feel uncomfortable. Don't film in restaurants, it's very inconsiderate towards other people who just want to eat and enjoy themselves
Some RUclipsrs tend to lack self awareness when shooting in shared spaces. A while back, I saw an entire video by a travel RUclipsr, ranting against Air Canada for asking him not to film from his first class seat.
I had the fortunate opportunity to live in China roughly a decade ago for an extended period of time. I routinely traveled the eastern half of the country from Liaoning in the north to Guangdong in the south and most points between. As such I not only experienced about 12 different language dialects but also 12 different cooking styles (probably far more than 12 of both). I ate at high-end restaurants in private dining rooms and in local kitchens 5 blocks off the main drag. I loved everything but one dish stood out for me. I can't remember the city or the company that was hosting me but the Chef was introduced to me and I to the Chef. The city was roughly 100 to 200 km north of Shanghai. The Chef told me (via interpreter) that most regions in China had a special dish and that he would be presenting me theirs. This dish would be the last dish of the 10 or 12 course dinner. The meal was fantastic and then the special dish was delivered with great fanfare. The local name of the dish escapes me but it was deep fried battered pork belly bites with a dark sweet and sour sauce ... basically sweet and sour boneless pork ... and I knew I was home (as I chuckled to myself). Cheers.
I admire how positive and gracious you two were and how you didn't badmouth their food or do anything in retaliation~ On another note, the Shunde goose is something I want to try really badly! Should I ever return to Australia, I plan on going to Taste of Shunde, Nanjing Dumpling, as well as the roujiamou and guo bao rou restaurants you went to!
@@lynnpaulovich920 I don't know about that since I've had plenty of goose in Hong Kong and in China. It is definitely okay to simply walk-in and order roasted goose.
when you're pretty and have a nice personality....everyone loves you and everything is in your favor in life, that 0.0001% negativity just gives you the WTF giggles. If you take these things seriously, it only means life hasn't been easy.

Amy, You always amaze me with your Great Finds in China. I'm a BBC (British born Chinese) living in Dallas TX and I love your videos. Keep it up and I l wish you and your parents and Jasmine a very very happy and successful and prosperous 2022. Muah!!
This is my favorite episode of all your amazingly great episodes. It's got everything in it. Amazing food, family and friends, suspense and drama, witty banter, and the best brain ever! 😆Love it!
Happy 2022 Amy! Nice video as always! You know u r still the kindest person I've ever seen on RUclips! lol. No one has to explain anything for the owner. I know they just want you to feel better, or worry that you'd lose your good impression of this country, Guangdong or Shunde. Surely I don't believe you would since you're so smart, understanding and open minded. Regarding to the owner, she's just ignorant(Relatively I mean. Can be totally normal in some locals). I dont mean she's bad. She may well be the nicest and gentlest grandma and mother also. I guess she just simply fears the unknown. She didn't know what you were doing. And maybe other customers didn't either. You guys don't look like any TV news reporter though you were like taking footages. She might think "thats so weird. I bet others think so too. No wonder only one came in to sit after this. These two gotta go!". Some comments said it's about the portraiture right or spending too long inside. Nonsense really. Because she doesn't know anything about your right of staying there or any others' portraiture right. And one thing also, you guys can't speak cantonese. Jasmine is already foreign enough for the shop. And plus you? Come on, clearly the most one-time customer for them. They don't need any advertising. That's a WoM local business. Okay, to sum up, you guys are exploring really local places, which is amazing. But meanwhile you'll encounter some older generations in relatively closed or underdeveloped areas(believe me there're underdeveloped areas even in Shenzhen or Guangzhou). Mostly they're nice enough. But some just are sensitive and haven't seen much of this world. In that case, you can patiently explain that your work might benefit their business(if you manage to communicate, better talk to the younger ones). Or, you just offer to buy more and take away. :D
Nice! Hope you try the Black Sesame pudding dessert while you're in Shunde. Very popular in this region. My mom's favourite dessert there growing up (I just found it okay but I grew up in Canada). Happy New Year; it's still New Year's eve here, 5.58 PST, 6 hours to go. Deep freeze on west coast (for Vancouver) -5.
Jiangsu province is renown for producing beauties and Jasmine is of no exception. The roast goose and congee looks real delicious. My nanny was from Shunde and I used to eat congee like the one in the video when I was a kid. Thanks for bringing back good memories. I'm a Cantonese and I'm real sorry the shop owner had treated you that way.
Happy New Year. Best chefs came from the Phoenix City of Shunde. The delta area of Pearl River has all the magical ingredients. It's a place of "fish and rice" of the South. You can spend years in this area and still haven't tried everything.
I can understand Cantones, actually she might want to say the filming will stop other people come in the house(I didn't heard the whole sentenses.) Some people can't understand or just don't like the filming thing, I can understand. You can just ignore it.
You can make ginger hit milk at home. You just need freshly sqeezed ginger juice (about 1-2 teaspoons for an average rice bowl) and milk. You heat the milk between 70-80 degrees Celsius and then pour it from a slight distance into the bowl with the ginger juice. Quickly stir it together a little and let it sit. Then it will solidify. Oh yes, If U want sweet flavour remember to add the sugar when U were heating the milk. Do not let milk boil tho. And HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy New Year, Amy! I love your videos. My mom loves them too. The first one I watched was the Hakka tulou. My mom started watching the ones filmed in Australia with your family. She loves your family too, so your family have contributed to your success in some part. She doesn't understand much of what you say, so she has to read the Chinese subtitles. The northern food you have shown is somewhat foreign to her, so she mainly sticks to Hakka and Cantonese food.
Thanks, Amy! Having a Tuesday and Saturday (2x a week) vlog is indeed a blessing for us all your solid subscriber! Haha! Kidding aside, happy new year and stay safe and healthy! :)
Good idea bring Jasmine into the video, she is so sweet catches most Chinese male's eyes. I am food lover, but my eyes was stick on her face instead of watching you guys eating. Good one.
Just a suggestion, perhaps call the restaurant ahead and ask whether you can shoot there as it will take a while (eg. more eating time than normal customer). Or go to the restaurant at quiet time, usually after lunch session, before dinner session.
When you guys were thrown out, that was the second time they asked you already. I could hear it in the video, they asked you not to take too long in Cantonese once already and you guys totally ignored them. So they did give you a warning. At the beginning of the video, the Cantonese kinda sounded like "if you keep shooting, people won't come in here to eat".
@@davidw.2791 They may not know the intention or if or where it's being posted. China has a closed internet. Restaurant owners work all day almost every day. Especially the Chinese. They don't have time for internet videos in other countries.
Old school owner. They used to have packed crowd when it's peak hours. They might even had bloggers taking up space before so they aren't really friendly towards them. Happens a lot for small shops. It can happen even here in Hong Kong.
The lady basically meant when people outside saw you two sitting by the window, they would be too shy to come inside. (Both of you are sooooooo beautiful!
I am in Australia. There are 2 Shunde restaurants in Sydney but their "goose" is really duck. Heard you said you liked roast geese in Australia. Where? Btw the prices and size of portion you shown are so good. Wish I can be there.
@@pagewood828 It is duck, cooked using Shunde style. I have eaten there many times. Easy to tell the difference between duck and goose. Besides one of the cooks confirmed it
Amy: You must have well indoctrinated your parents on Chinese food. I couldn't get my US born son to appreciate Chinese food half as much as your dad. I have been to Australia six times, and many, especially those in West Australia, are quite reserved(??). My belated Bon Appetit!
They were probably worried you were secretly filming their process of making the food to set up a competing business...Or worried some other shop had paid you to do it, since you said they were considered the best one at双皮奶。
I'm always envious you're able to eat about everything without being picky. If they would offer you fried bicycle tires you'd probably eat it and still find it tasty 😉😁
Happy New Year of 2022, Miss Amy, along with Miss Jasmine.🎍🎉 Sometimes unexpected news might happen in the original planning, but Shunde is a great place to visit.
Not really known for service there, we once got yelled at in a restaurant for not finishing chilli sauce. They scooped it out in a little dipping dish and we didn't eat it all and get scolded. We did say we only wanted a small portion 😂 Karens won't survive in China
Buffalo milk is next level. In Turkey it’s the most prized for making a rich, thick pure white yogurt, as well as kaymak, which is made by heating the milk slowly in a wide pan and letting the cream rise to the top and solidify. They eat that with bread and honey for a very special breakfast.
Goose in Australia ? where can I have it ? A huge bowl of taro, clam congee only RMB20，it really so cheap. Wish you all have a happy & healthy year of 2022
I like that Blondie show such real experiences, God ones and lesser good ones. same as everywhere in the world nothing is perfect. With these little bad funny moments we know that Blondie show what she really experience in China.
Happy 2022 Amy and Jasmine!! 🍾🍷🥂🎉🥳💃🌺♥️🕉️✌️🥰You guys have great chemistry and make a great team. Looking forward to Jasmine joining you again on another food adventure.
Poor gals! Your cheerful personality should not be affected by this single bad incident! Awaiting more of your mouth watering and hilarious videos. Cheers!
Nothing more than happier to see two beautiful smiling faces in the first video that I watched on the first morning of the New Year. Jasmine is a real 識吃貨. Sorry to see your bad experience in that shop. Anyway it would just make you more famous but that shop infamous. I will surely not go to it when I visit Shunde so do the other RUclipsrs like Nico. Anyway, Happy New Year to you two!
Now to be fair, when it comes to bad attitude/service in China, nothing beats a northerner with some thick north accented mandarin (such as myself) trying to eat at a small restaurant or hawker in Southern China, sadly, mainly in Guangdong. Just my bad experience, this might not relate to what you've experienced here, but mine sure isn't the greatest.
In many busy restaurants in SE Asia, you're allotted a slot, say 1 hour, and when your time is up, you're tossed out without too much ceremony. Naturally, after you've paid.
Hi Amy, Daniel from Melbourne. 新年快乐 and wishing you all the best for 2022. Thank you for making fantastic content and working your way through the endless selections of Chinese foods sharing your knowledge and insight. Thank you for being such a legend. X
I finally found one restaurant that serve goose in Melbourne. 1/4 of roast goose in Melbourne cost $48. A whole goose almost $200. But it is close for reno.
I have had very odd customers come to me and ask me to ask another customer to leave. The customer asking for this may have no logical reason to ask the other person to leave, but if they keep coming to you every 5 minutes INSISTING that you throw the other person out, it is hard to know what to do.
Ginger hit milk is nothing like double skin milk. Ginger hit milk is a science experiment gone right. The milk is heated to a very exact temperature, then the ginger juice is added, this causes a natural coagulation that renders the smoothest\softest\most delicious texture milk product known to man similar to tofu fa... But not.
Hi Amy, We are in Central Canada on the western prairie. The cold weather from the North Pole came down and have been stuck here for almost two weeks. It is sometimes called a polar vortex and -35C with wind chill factor is much colder. The city of Edmonton was -41C last week. We love your channel it is so funny, informative and entertaining, perfect for our arctic weather. Cheers Henry
Tomorrow the forecast is -37C without the wind which we always have! Fortunately I will be watching BIC over and over and over again. Must be the food and the humour keeping us warm. Ps. Your Dad is very funny, just a few words from him will make me laugh! What a special man.
@@chuenyeelau I lived in Minneapolis for a few years, and I’ll never forget the winters. -30C was not uncommon in January, and with wind chills, it was much colder. Frostbite could be a concern when people didn’t know how to layer their clothing. Warm meals were extra good after school! ☺️ My mom would cook me fresh, warm rice for a snack, and she’d add a little sprinkle of sugar on top. Mmm…
And Shunde is a small(Chinese size) but very rich city, with two of the world's top 500 enterprises: Midea Group, CountryGarden . And Galanz is a world famous company, the world's largest manufacturer of microwave ovens, is also founded in this city.
If it makes you feel better, I got thrown out multiple times by aged people, I wouldn't say they are stubborn but more like you are in his house then you go by his rules, you should have seen the way they threw me out, this one seems like a misunderstood to me.
Asking for filming permission will be actually a better way of communicating in Cantonese areas or you can try to explain what you were going to do with the shop owner before doing it. Trust comes with understanding. Thank you for your show Amy, I'm really home sick but with your video i can stand for a little longer :)
My mother's side is from Daliang in the heart of Shunde and I can attest that food in Shunde is just heavenly. These small shops/restaurants really taste like michellin starred places! They are all small places so don't get much attention from vloggers or social influencers.
Hey Amy, I'm travelling from Singapore to Chongqing China. I would like to ask where could I purchase a Sim or E Sim to use for my 10 day trip in Chongqing. Do you recommend getting a physical sim card or e sim. I would like to purchase with VPN to use facebook and other social media. Thanks so much Amy.

Happy New Year José! And don't worry, Jasmine will definitely back on my channel in 2022!
@@BlondieinChina Yay... that's great news! I look forward to more videos of you two introducing us to great places and great dishes... Does Aleese live in the same city? I would love to see the two of you collaborating for another video... it was so much fun watching you two when you filmed at Starbucks and Pizza Hut (Duryon pizza). Aleese cracks me up...
Typically restaurants are for people who want to eat, not film and document; so they probably wanted to prioritize customers who were going to do just that. In Japan where I'm from, they wouldn't kick you out, but normally people would make a phone call and notify a staff if it was okay to film a youtube video, then they usually prepare a nice secluded table for you that wouldn't interrupt other customers. It's just an etiquette thing.
Agreed. Personally I would not feel comfortable when someone on the next table was filing. You can see other guests in the video.
Absolutely right. Unfortunately, foreigners (especially white Westerners) don't think this way.
Me too, I don't want to eat at a restaurant that allows people to film inside. I go to restaurants to eat and relax and I can't relax when people are filming because it makes me feel uncomfortable. Don't film in restaurants, it's very inconsiderate towards other people who just want to eat and enjoy themselves
Some RUclipsrs tend to lack self awareness when shooting in shared spaces. A while back, I saw an entire video by a travel RUclipsr, ranting against Air Canada for asking him not to film from his first class seat.
In Japan it's actually illegal. Never heard of this in China though.
I had the fortunate opportunity to live in China roughly a decade ago for an extended period of time. I routinely traveled the eastern half of the country from Liaoning in the north to Guangdong in the south and most points between. As such I not only experienced about 12 different language dialects but also 12 different cooking styles (probably far more than 12 of both). I ate at high-end restaurants in private dining rooms and in local kitchens 5 blocks off the main drag. I loved everything but one dish stood out for me. I can't remember the city or the company that was hosting me but the Chef was introduced to me and I to the Chef. The city was roughly 100 to 200 km north of Shanghai. The Chef told me (via interpreter) that most regions in China had a special dish and that he would be presenting me theirs. This dish would be the last dish of the 10 or 12 course dinner. The meal was fantastic and then the special dish was delivered with great fanfare. The local name of the dish escapes me but it was deep fried battered pork belly bites with a dark sweet and sour sauce ... basically sweet and sour boneless pork ... and I knew I was home (as I chuckled to myself). Cheers.
Wonderful nostalgic story, thanks for sharing!
That was a long way of saying you ate fried pork belly.
@@flonker5961 --sometimes the story is more important than the point of the story.
The name of that dish is 糖醋里脊
There is a recipe for this dish on youtube
This is Dongpo pork in Zhejiang cuisine, also known as braised pork，东坡肉
I admire how positive and gracious you two were and how you didn't badmouth their food or do anything in retaliation~ On another note, the Shunde goose is something I want to try really badly! Should I ever return to Australia, I plan on going to Taste of Shunde, Nanjing Dumpling, as well as the roujiamou and guo bao rou restaurants you went to!
You don't want to get in trouble with food vendor. They would do terrible things to your foods. Same things apply in the western world.
@@Pen2paw They had already finished eating by the time they were thrown out the restaurant. Don't see how their food would have been tampered with.
The "couple" that never failed to make me happy! Love you both. Happy new year! 😘😍😍😍
You guys are great sports for putting up with that negative restaurant experience. Much love!
. Roast duck/ goose should be ordered ahead. They were lucky to be served and not complain.
Roast duck/goose should be ordered ahead
@@lynnpaulovich920 I don't know about that since I've had plenty of goose in Hong Kong and in China. It is definitely okay to simply walk-in and order roasted goose.
when you're pretty and have a nice personality....everyone loves you and everything is in your favor in life, that 0.0001% negativity just gives you the WTF giggles. If you take these things seriously, it only means life hasn't been easy.
@@lynnpaulovich920 If you do not have goose for walking clients, it is okay to say no. That is no specific for they got goose by walk in
My wife is from Shunde and food is religion to her. I have been kicked out of the house multiple times just because I entered the kitchen at the wrong time.

wash yourself with pomelo leaf water, pray to the four corners, before entering

Amy, You always amaze me with your Great Finds in China. I'm a BBC (British born Chinese) living in Dallas TX and I love your videos. Keep it up and I l wish you and your parents and Jasmine a very very happy and successful and prosperous 2022. Muah!!
I'm so happy to see you two together again in a video, but what excited me most was seeing the maps of Spain behind your father 🤣🤣🤣
Here on a new year, I had decided Shun De as my next China destination! Happy New Year!
You won't be disappointed! The food was INCREDIBLE! Happy New Year, Hocku!
This is my favorite episode of all your amazingly great episodes. It's got everything in it. Amazing food, family and friends, suspense and drama, witty banter, and the best brain ever! 😆Love it!
Happy 2022 Amy! Nice video as always! You know u r still the kindest person I've ever seen on RUclips! lol. No one has to explain anything for the owner. I know they just want you to feel better, or worry that you'd lose your good impression of this country, Guangdong or Shunde. Surely I don't believe you would since you're so smart, understanding and open minded. Regarding to the owner, she's just ignorant(Relatively I mean. Can be totally normal in some locals). I dont mean she's bad. She may well be the nicest and gentlest grandma and mother also. I guess she just simply fears the unknown. She didn't know what you were doing. And maybe other customers didn't either. You guys don't look like any TV news reporter though you were like taking footages. She might think "thats so weird. I bet others think so too. No wonder only one came in to sit after this. These two gotta go!". Some comments said it's about the portraiture right or spending too long inside. Nonsense really. Because she doesn't know anything about your right of staying there or any others' portraiture right. And one thing also, you guys can't speak cantonese. Jasmine is already foreign enough for the shop. And plus you? Come on, clearly the most one-time customer for them. They don't need any advertising. That's a WoM local business. Okay, to sum up, you guys are exploring really local places, which is amazing. But meanwhile you'll encounter some older generations in relatively closed or underdeveloped areas(believe me there're underdeveloped areas even in Shenzhen or Guangzhou). Mostly they're nice enough. But some just are sensitive and haven't seen much of this world. In that case, you can patiently explain that your work might benefit their business(if you manage to communicate, better talk to the younger ones). Or, you just offer to buy more and take away. :D
I didn't think I'd be starting 2022 watching a chef blow into a Goose's neck.. but here we are
HAHAHAHA! Happy new year!
yeah, and i still have no idea about "fuck a duck until it exploded" taste like😸
The goose didn’t seem to care 🦆
Nice! Hope you try the Black Sesame pudding dessert while you're in Shunde. Very popular in this region. My mom's favourite dessert there growing up (I just found it okay but I grew up in Canada). Happy New Year; it's still New Year's eve here, 5.58 PST, 6 hours to go. Deep freeze on west coast (for Vancouver) -5.
The trips that don't go as planned are the best kind!! 😊 Happy New Year 🎊thank you for the great videos in 2021!! and excited about 2022
Jiangsu province is renown for producing beauties and Jasmine is of no exception. The roast goose and congee looks real delicious. My nanny was from Shunde and I used to eat congee like the one in the video when I was a kid. Thanks for bringing back good memories. I'm a Cantonese and I'm real sorry the shop owner had treated you that way.
My wife is from Shunde, and we’ll be going there, visiting the family, in July & August. Really looking forward to this holiday!
If you enjoyed this video, raise your hand to show Blondie Amy your undying support ✋🙋🏻♂️👍
@@Luck1321 happy new year 💥💥💥
Oh, the shock look on your faces - priceless!!! Happy New Year.
Happy new year!!
Happy New Year ! Shunde is one of our best Canton food , it should be No 1! Enjoy!
The food is fabulous in Shunde. But it is easier to admire Jasmine--what a beautiful smile.
Happy New Year. Best chefs came from the Phoenix City of Shunde. The delta area of Pearl River has all the magical ingredients. It's a place of "fish and rice" of the South. You can spend years in this area and still haven't tried everything.
OMG, you guys did ask the right person!!! I can’t believe you guys know Jinbang. That is really the best shuangpinai you ca get in Shunde!!!!
I can understand Cantones, actually she might want to say the filming will stop other people come in the house(I didn't heard the whole sentenses.) Some people can't understand or just don't like the filming thing, I can understand. You can just ignore it.
Food looks good
Anyway, happy new year! Best wishes to Blondie and all of you.
🤣 Growing up in Shunde we actually never ordered from the menu but what we want to eat and most importantly what is "in season"
Wishing you both a year full of blessings and filled with a new adventure. Happy New Year 2022!
You can make ginger hit milk at home. You just need freshly sqeezed ginger juice (about 1-2 teaspoons for an average rice bowl) and milk. You heat the milk between 70-80 degrees Celsius and then pour it from a slight distance into the bowl with the ginger juice. Quickly stir it together a little and let it sit. Then it will solidify. Oh yes, If U want sweet flavour remember to add the sugar when U were heating the milk. Do not let milk boil tho. And HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Happy New Year, Amy! I love your videos. My mom loves them too. The first one I watched was the Hakka tulou. My mom started watching the ones filmed in Australia with your family. She loves your family too, so your family have contributed to your success in some part. She doesn't understand much of what you say, so she has to read the Chinese subtitles. The northern food you have shown is somewhat foreign to her, so she mainly sticks to Hakka and Cantonese food.
Please Blondie, upload more of your formidable videos. I just love them and admire you.
Jasmine can make any food look so much more delicious and enjoyable
Thanks, Amy! Having a Tuesday and Saturday (2x a week) vlog is indeed a blessing for us all your solid subscriber! Haha! Kidding aside, happy new year and stay safe and healthy! :)
Best New Year gift ever-- extra video on Saturday❤️❤️❤️
Enjoy!!! Happy New Year, Vei!
The looks on your guys face in the thumb nail could be a meme haha. Thank you Amy for spreading Chinese culture, god bless you.
Good idea bring Jasmine into the video, she is so sweet catches most Chinese male's eyes. I am food lover, but my eyes was stick on her face instead of watching you guys eating. Good one.
I am from Shunde and I am in Sydney right now. LOL. Welcome to my town and have a great trip! 😊😊😊
Omg this is 5 minutes away from me 😂 the food here is incredible, especially the goose 👏
Please make a video of you tasting the goose
@@leekimwah if that’s what you wanna see, then sure 😁
顺德人路过，乡里🙃
Just a suggestion, perhaps call the restaurant ahead and ask whether you can shoot there as it will take a while (eg. more eating time than normal customer). Or go to the restaurant at quiet time, usually after lunch session, before dinner session.
When you guys were thrown out, that was the second time they asked you already. I could hear it in the video, they asked you not to take too long in Cantonese once already and you guys totally ignored them. So they did give you a warning.
At the beginning of the video, the Cantonese kinda sounded like "if you keep shooting, people won't come in here to eat".
Which is ironic that the establishment didn’t seem to have demanded they delete this “distracting” footage.

The shop owners loss.
@@davidw.2791 They may not know the intention or if or where it's being posted. China has a closed internet. Restaurant owners work all day almost every day. Especially the Chinese. They don't have time for internet videos in other countries.
This post should be higher. Just a lack of respect on your part 'Blondie in China'.
Old school owner. They used to have packed crowd when it's peak hours. They might even had bloggers taking up space before so they aren't really friendly towards them. Happens a lot for small shops. It can happen even here in Hong Kong.
The lady basically meant when people outside saw you two sitting by the window, they would be too shy to come inside. (Both of you are sooooooo beautiful!
I am in Australia. There are 2 Shunde restaurants in Sydney but their "goose" is really duck. Heard you said you liked roast geese in Australia. Where? Btw the prices and size of portion you shown are so good. Wish I can be there.
Shop15 A5, A7/1 Lakeside Rd, Eastwood NSW 2122
No drama buddy
where are you are you a chinese?
@@tonlin6913 I live in Epping (Sydney) and yes I am Chinese (Shunde origin)
@@pagewood828 It is duck, cooked using Shunde style. I have eaten there many times. Easy to tell the difference between duck and goose. Besides one of the cooks confirmed it
you stand correct theres no restaurant has goose in Sydney metropolitan，those "goose" they claim are all ducks
My grandma from Shunde is the best cook ever.
Amy: You must have well indoctrinated your parents on Chinese food. I couldn't get my US born son to appreciate Chinese food half as much as your dad. I have been to Australia six times, and many, especially those in West Australia, are quite reserved(??). My belated Bon Appetit!
They were probably worried you were secretly filming their process of making the food to set up a competing business...Or worried some other shop had paid you to do it, since you said they were considered the best one at双皮奶。
I'm always envious you're able to eat about everything without being picky.
If they would offer you fried bicycle tires you'd probably eat it and still find it tasty 😉😁
Thanks, really enjoying your simple vids of China.
Happy New Year of 2022, Miss Amy, along with Miss Jasmine.🎍🎉
Sometimes unexpected news might happen in the original planning, but Shunde is a great place to visit.
12:26 Jasmine is the friend that you want to live and die for.
Not really known for service there, we once got yelled at in a restaurant for not finishing chilli sauce. They scooped it out in a little dipping dish and we didn't eat it all and get scolded. We did say we only wanted a small portion 😂 Karens won't survive in China
Buffalo milk is next level. In Turkey it’s the most prized for making a rich, thick pure white yogurt, as well as kaymak, which is made by heating the milk slowly in a wide pan and letting the cream rise to the top and solidify. They eat that with bread and honey for a very special breakfast.
那个老板娘的意思是: 如果你们在那里拍摄视频，她那些客人就不会进店里吃东西了，那就会影响她做生意，所以如果你们不是继续拍摄她的店，她是不会叫你们走的，她是不喜欢你们拍她的店而已。
Goose in Australia ? where can I have it ? A huge bowl of taro, clam congee only RMB20，it really so cheap.
Wish you all have a happy & healthy year of 2022
Sorry about the bad experience Amy, some fast food stores don’t like ppl to stay too long in their store, 😂😂🤣
I like that Blondie show such real experiences, God ones and lesser good ones. same as everywhere in the world nothing is perfect. With these little bad funny moments we know that Blondie show what she really experience in China.
First time watching your videos and I love the vibe ... new subscriber for sure
Happy 2022 Amy and Jasmine!! 🍾🍷🥂🎉🥳💃🌺♥️🕉️✌️🥰You guys have great chemistry and make a great team. Looking forward to Jasmine joining you again on another food adventure.

Wow love the foods thanks for showing you are awesome. Happy New Year.
Happy New Year!!!
Nothing more than happier to see two beautiful smiling faces in the first video that I watched on the first morning of the New Year. Jasmine is a real 識吃貨. Sorry to see your bad experience in that shop. Anyway it would just make you more famous but that shop infamous. I will surely not go to it when I visit Shunde so do the other RUclipsrs like Nico. Anyway, Happy New Year to you two!
Now to be fair, when it comes to bad attitude/service in China, nothing beats a northerner with some thick north accented mandarin (such as myself) trying to eat at a small restaurant or hawker in Southern China, sadly, mainly in Guangdong.
Just my bad experience, this might not relate to what you've experienced here, but mine sure isn't the greatest.

Hi Amy, Daniel from Melbourne. 新年快乐 and wishing you all the best for 2022. Thank you for making fantastic content and working your way through the endless selections of Chinese foods sharing your knowledge and insight. Thank you for being such a legend.

I finally found one restaurant that serve goose in Melbourne. 1/4 of roast goose in Melbourne cost $48. A whole goose almost $200. But it is close for reno.
This is the best food! Shunde is about 30 minutes away from where I live.
the BEST!!!! Ahhh my stomach was very happy in Shunde
I have had very odd customers come to me and ask me to ask another customer to leave. The customer asking for this may have no logical reason to ask the other person to leave, but if they keep coming to you every 5 minutes INSISTING that you throw the other person out, it is hard to know what to do.
Ginger hit milk is nothing like double skin milk. Ginger hit milk is a science experiment gone right. The milk is heated to a very exact temperature, then the ginger juice is added, this causes a natural coagulation that renders the smoothest\softest\most delicious texture milk product known to man similar to tofu fa... But not.
If you press the water out of it, you get ginger mozzarella.
Amy. Luv you and all your videos! I luv Chinese food! You know that is true! Happy New Year!
Another fabulous video with Jasmine! Look forward to more. Happy New Year Cheers from the land of -35C with ice and snow
Oh wow! Where are you that is -35c?????
Hi Amy, We are in Central Canada on the western prairie. The cold weather from the North Pole came down and have been stuck here for almost two weeks. It is sometimes called a polar vortex and -35C with wind chill factor is much colder. The city of Edmonton was -41C last week. We love your channel it is so funny, informative and entertaining, perfect for our arctic weather. Cheers Henry
Thanks for keeping the Canadian warm! Cheers🥶🥶🥶🥶😊😊😊😊
Tomorrow the forecast is -37C without the wind which we always have! Fortunately I will be watching BIC over and over and over again. Must be the food and the humour keeping us warm. Ps. Your Dad is very funny, just a few words from him will make me laugh! What a special man.
@@chuenyeelau I lived in Minneapolis for a few years, and I’ll never forget the winters. -30C was not uncommon in January, and with wind chills, it was much colder. Frostbite could be a concern when people didn’t know how to layer their clothing.
Warm meals were extra good after school! ☺️ My mom would cook me fresh, warm rice for a snack, and she’d add a little sprinkle of sugar on top. Mmm…
Thank you for the video. Happy New Year!
Happy Nee Year !! Hope you have many more tasty food adventures in 2022.
And Shunde is a small(Chinese size) but very rich city, with two of the world's top 500 enterprises: Midea Group, CountryGarden . And Galanz is a world famous company, the world's largest manufacturer of microwave ovens, is also founded in this city.
If it makes you feel better, I got thrown out multiple times by aged people, I wouldn't say they are stubborn but more like you are in his house then you go by his rules, you should have seen the way they threw me out, this one seems like a misunderstood to me.
really thanks! in yangzhou city, goose is our favorable specialty! welcome to yangzhou city!
Asking for filming permission will be actually a better way of communicating in Cantonese areas or you can try to explain what you were going to do with the shop owner before doing it. Trust comes with understanding. Thank you for your show Amy, I'm really home sick but with your video i can stand for a little longer :)
My mother's side is from Daliang in the heart of Shunde and I can attest that food in Shunde is just heavenly. These small shops/restaurants really taste like michellin starred places! They are all small places so don't get much attention from vloggers or social influencers.
So jealous on you two beauties. NSW is losing control for Covid now! 😭
“A whirlwind of textures and flavours...” nice 😋
Happy New year to you girls,this video was so funny 😜
Hey Amy, I'm travelling from Singapore to Chongqing China. I would like to ask where could I purchase a Sim or E Sim to use for my 10 day trip in Chongqing. Do you recommend getting a physical sim card or e sim. I would like to purchase with VPN to use facebook and other social media. Thanks so much Amy.
