Love all the duck dishes, and yes, even the duck blood and bits soup. So keen to visit Nanjing, Andy was a great ambassador
duck me lol
Dad you are too adorable ❤️
Duck licious
I think you guys may consider to apply a patent for that duck sandwich. As far as I know, nobody in China had that idea came up in their mind yet. It would be a unique Australian thing, despite some sort of Chinese origin.
We have finally converted Blondie's Dad into enjoying organ meat and blood! Muhahaha!!!
Can't tell if Andy is a restauranteur or a Chinese historian. This man is an endless encyclopedia.
So much knowledge!!
Nanjing has a rich history even though im not from China I know a few things about it. Chief of which is the horrible Nanjing Massacre during the Japanese period.
Just common sense. and roasted duck in Nanjing is not that popular when people outside Nanjing compare it with Beijing. The most famous duck in Nanjing is "Plate" duck.
By the way, no one will use gelitan to replace port skin, its different textile when heated. and this "small bun" originally was from Northern China and carried over when the Song Dynasty moved the capital to the South and settled down at Nanjing, even after modified in Jiangsu province, "chang zhou" city is the first city produced and sell, not as what the owner said "wuxi" city.
@@wynerforsure4692 You know Wuxi and Changzhou were one city right?
Andy is a Chinese Indiana Jones, he makes it up as he goes along. emperor forced people to eat duck? 😁😁
Has anyone noticed the bilingual subtitles? They’re so well made. So funny, so clear so much subtle humor and feelings in them. Great job blondie!
Also I’m in nanjing and please let me know when you’re in nanjing
So easy to tell Andy has so much passion for his food, his origins and history. It's beautiful people like this with passion and friendliness that allows these flavors to transcend time!
Love how Amy’s parents are so supportive to try all new dishes and Amy herself so enthusiastic about everything 😊
your parents are relationship goals
Hahaha yes!! They’re the best
Mom never goes harsh on anything she tries! What a nice lady! And Dad is such a decent gentlemen! Lovely family! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I'd have to agree, it's ducking amazing.
😂😂
真他鸭的棒
Hi Amy, I found your channel in October 2019 when I just began to learn Mandarin for my career development and now I am absolutely in love with your videos (I've watched some of them more than once!). You introduced me the positive and amazing sides of China, which made me want to not only just visit but even want to live there. Today my husband and I finally decided to give it a try and we are leaving this August to live in Beijing for 2 years! I know the timing might not be perfect considering what's going on in the world at the moment but I am super excited about learning Mandarin and trying loads of fantastic looking Chinese food you've shown us! Thank you again for the wonderful videos - Love from London x
Dt restaurant owner guy is very interactive and full of knowledge
Yes! It was so great chatting with him. He knows his food!
老板不太象南京人，更象滁州人，感觉很纯朴
@@user-lu6lz6rc7z 他说英文你用中文回复？？
没有一只鸭子能活着走出南京。----“
No duck can leave Nanjing alive ”
haha 哈
hahaha 哈哈
其实南京烤鸭比北京的好吃。是北京烤鸭祖宗
正宗的说法是没一只鸭子能游过扬子江
@@jundahuang2565 到水西门就变盐水鸭了
love this owner. He knows his food!!
Yes! It was such a pleasure chatting with Andy. I learned so much about Nanjing food!
Ducking Awesome😄😄😄👍
Your mom is really a super star, she can handle every food! You should try some Yunnan food!
Yes!! That’s definitely on the list! Currently looking for a good Yunnan restaurant in Sydney
@@BlondieinChina there is a fantastic Yunnan restaurant in Melbourne called Colorful Yunan! Hope to see you again in Melbourne :)
@@BlondieinChina Or how about some ethnic minority chinese food like those from Xinjiang (eg. rice pilaf), Inner Mongolia, Tibet, etc if they can be found in Sydney.
Just came back from yunnan,they do have a Lot of ethnic food there
Great Yunnan restaurant in Shanghai called Lost Heaven. Would love to visit that place.
“Duck me”, love your dad.
Classic dad line!
Duck me dead 😬
He missed Hingara.
I haven't seen my parents in almost 2 years now due to covid. Binge watching ur videos with ur parents helps fill the void. I miss my parents.
I just love that a random throw-away comment from dad “duck sandwich” is cut straight to Blondie and dad actually trying duck sandwich 😊 I’m inspired by you to enjoy life and live in the moment more ❤
keep the food videos coming. learning alot about the chinese dishes.
Yay!! Thanks Thomas!! ❤️
Not a duck could leave Nanjing alive!!!
haha a bit sad actually
Well the ducks got enough paradises where they are not eaten
I think when the emperor of Ming dynasty moved the capital from Nanjing to Beijing, he brought the Nanjing roast duck to Beijing and became the Beijing roast duck after some years.
Best Nanjing duck restaurant in Sydney by far, if anyone is interested, it’s located in Chinatown, Hay st.
I have to say, you have a really cool dad.
Haha agreed!
"it's a whackbang!" Hahaha love it 😂
I just discovered your channel yesterday and I’ve been binge watching your videos since!
I had never felt attracted to China before, but the way you show this culture through you videos is so interesting that now I can’t wait to visit!! This video in particular was the cherry on top to be honest... duck everything?? My bags are packed, China
I’m so happy you found my channel!! So glad I could show you a bit about China. Hope to meet you there one day (post pandemic) haha
It's very refreshing to see a family that's so game to try new things. But you guys do it without hesitation and are so open to new and unusual dishes. Your personal opinions and reactions to the food are honest and insightful to people who eat it on a regular basis and also to people who have never tried it before. That is so nice to see.
I think you guys would love Malaysia and especially Penang (Ranked #1 by Lonely Planet for its food). The variety of food in Penang is a cornucopia from so many countries and time has fused and morph them into many specialities.
So, if and when you plan to visit, let me know and I'll point you in the right direction and maybe even join you to show you and indulge you with our wonderful food and amazing heritage.
Love catching a glimpse of your mum and dad holding hands as they strolled along. Sweet! 😍
I just love that a random throw-away comment from dad “duck sandwich” is cut straight to Blondie and dad actually trying duck sandwich 😊
My family is divorced when I was 11.
I am 35 now, soon 36.
I find comfort in your videos especially when you are out with your parents.
I am envious of you and I am ok with that.
My parents divorced when I was 12. I am 18 now, soon 19. Very envious of her as well. Especially when she showed them holding hands. No memory of mine doing that.
don't be sad, divorce rate in China is catching up to the west quickly. in 2019, the national divorce rate in China was 48%, and 75% of those divorces were initiated by women. The Chinese learned western capitalism along side with many other things too!
No worries..start your own family, be the dad to your kids...
Hi I just found your channel earlier today and I just love all your videos. As an international student who is stuck in Canada because of covid(who is from Nanjing), I literally cried when you mentioned 南京烤鸭. It’s so less famous than Beijing Peking Duck and it’s basically impossible to find it here in Toronto. Thank you again for being so adventurous and showing the world all those amazing food.
Hi Alice!! Thanks for your lovely message!! Hoping you can get some 南京烤鸭 soon! Love from Sydney 💗
I'm stuck in Melbourne for almost one year now. I'm so keen to go back to my hometown Nanjing! I miss my duck so much!
how's that western democracy and freedom?
i watch your channel cause your parents are awesome!
Especially your dad!
I am amazed that you can find Nanjing duck in Sydney.
I didn’t expect to be able to find it! It was super good. Looking forward to trying it when I go to nanjing next 👍👍
Lol as someone who was born and raised in NJ, I have to say I love them all!!!
Love your videos and your parents are too sweet! I love how adventurous and loving your family is! Keep the content coming!
Beijing duck is actually combines Huaiyang cuisin (Nanjing roast duck) with Shandong cuisin (steamed pancakes, scallion and cucumber, sweet soybean paste) since Ming dynasty. Shandong cuisin influences most of the North china food including Beijing, it is mother of the North china food, thus Beijing people like food such as rolled steamed pancakes with scallion and sweet soybean paste, while the people from Nanjing (due to the capital moving) brought the Nanjing roast duck.
Such a great video Amy! Andy was so knowledgeable and shared such interesting stories and explanations. Would love more videos with chefs/restaurant owners!
This is one of the most interesting videos you've done. So many new flavors and textures!
I am Nanjingnese and LOVE what you are doing here! you are doing such amazing job at introducing the amazingness of Nanjing to so many people! Love you! Pls keep going
Bravo! I absolutely love watching your videos. Salted ducks are one of my fav dishes!!! I love you share your these moments with your family, close friends and all your viewers! Keep up the good work!
I applaud your sense of adventurism - nicely done.
Thanks!!
Great video! As a Chinese American, I didn't know that there is a Nanjing duck cuisine. Will definitely try one day! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!! ❤️
北京烤鸭就是明朝传到北京的，北方天冷，南方闷热，所以北京烤鸭油腻，南方盐水鸭清凉，南京烤鸭就一般了，口感偏甜，也是和盐水鸭一样切块装盘
Amy. Finally we manage to go and try the showcased restaurant and shall I say its sooo good. We were so full and happy. Thank you for your recommendation
🙋🏻♀️Born and raised in Nanjing, we really love ducks😂When I was a kid, I always prefer Nanjing roast duck over salted duck. But being away from my hometown for so many years, I really miss all Nanjing duck cuisines plus the beef guotie😍
OMG Amy!!! I’m so happy that you finally tried food from my hometown and even happier that all of you enjoyed it!! If you go back I strongly recommend duck wonton soup with the pan fried dumplings!! That is one of the classic breakfast combos in Nanjing and it is just👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Really made me feel nostalgia when your dad said its gonna be good on a sandwich. That's also how my mom treats most of the flavorful food, and she is Chinese. She usually do that with 馒头, which is Chinese traditional bun, and make everything into dish-jiamo lol.
Amy you make me homesick with every single one of your videos! What a treat this one was!
I’m so happy you liked it!!! ❤️❤️ thanks for watching and supporting me
Great video ! Super enjoyable! I didn’t know anything about Nanjing cuisine! Happy new year to you and your family!
Love all the dishes. Thanks for sharing your food adventures. Your parent's are the best loving this content 😋
Wooo looks delicious.😋 Nanjing food is now on my MUST try list! Thanks Amy♥️
I love the guy explaining. What a sweet man. 💜
Im from NANJING, 小金陵 is my favorite Nanjing street food in Sydney. Their 汤包 is pretty close to Nanjing's. And 牛肉锅贴 is tasty too, but it tastes way better in Nanjing
This is the best salted duck i ever had in Sydney. I grew up eating salted ducks, this is exactly the same as what you can get in Nanjing. Andy is really good at explaining the history, better than i do haha
duck blood vermicelli and Nanjing salt water duck, two of my favorite dishes ! So jealous
Very impressed with the food research, thank you so much!
Omg, those salty duck are so good, there is another one call drunk chicken very good too
Always enjoyed your video. Only subscribed today though. Love your mum and dad too! They are pure stars!
Now I'm adding a new destination to my travel list.
My mom's from Nanjing and I was really missing its food today because there's not much in terms of Nanjing restaurants outside of China. Thanks for your video, it helped a little with my homesickness. But also thank you for trying out stuff like duck blood and heart with respect. A lot of people hear blood and get scared but it really is kind of just like tofu.
Always lovely to see your vids. your mum and dad are lovely as always
Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️
this is top tier content, really like yall's open mindedness. looking forward to future vids and seeing this channel really take off.
Such a lovely comment!!! ❤️❤️❤️ thank you so much
oh my goodness, I love duck much more than chicken. I'm so jealous that you guys have so many good Chinese restaurants in Australia... Good eat and great video as always. Happy New Year!
We are so lucky! Got so many amazing restaurants here
@@BlondieinChina Sydney Melbourne fantastic Chinese food..Cannot beat the freshness you get in Aust..esp Yum Cha in Melbourne...better than London dim sum.
Wow i love Andy! So much knowledge
Andy was super nice and informative. Also I love the blondie girl logo on the bottom of the screen!
Love your videos so happy when your parents try different exotic foods well done
I looooove your videos and your parents. they are so awesome
the manager is actually so proud of the food
Xiao long bao was actually originated in Henan province in Song Dynasty. Then due to the war and the migration from the north to the south these dishes were moved to the south too. That’s why you also find xiao long bao in Xi an, which is on the way from henan to Zhejiang
Cantonese duck is also quite different as we tend to steam the duck first with ginger, scallions, and some spices, then roast for a short time to get that skin brown. It’s less fatty but worth doing. Hong Kong like to do a version of duck more over those burners with a ton of glaze over it served with some real plum sauce. I think every region in China tends to do a version of duck their way same like pork. Also do yourself a favor and try the full pork feast like the old days where almost every course is pork in some way, you don’t get tired of it as the taste changes so much dish to dish. The whole pork feast idea is from the old idea of saving up for a single pig for the the year which they slaughter at the new year to feed
Iike 100 people. We just got smart about it and now the feast is at a restaurant as it’s easier and cheaper.
That sounds amazing!! So many yummy things I still need to try. Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️
That sounds amazing!! So many yummy things I still need to try. Thanks for sharing ❤️❤️
This is awesome! I miss 北京烤鸭 all the time. Like you, I'd never heard of 盐水鸭 before. We just made some videos about food in China recently too, and I love your vlogs where y'all go out and eat everything! Hopefully we'll get there too
Really glad your family truly enjoy the whole Salted Duck Meal. Quack quack quack!!
Kudos to your Dad who always comes up with some ingenious catch phrases.
This video about the food history of nanjing duck and xiaolong bao was so interesting :D I learnt something new today! Thank you. I so want to visit the restaurant u are at!
HAHAHAHA your mom shaking her head after your dad's "Duck me" comment. Oh, man....fantastic. Laughed out loud on that one. Great video! Thanks for sharing!
One of my friend is nanjingese, he grew up eating a lotta salted ducks , soup dumplings, duck pastry. And that pan fry beef dumpling ( beef Guo Tie) is a bomb!
I'm dying watching you guys eat the soup, I need a bow of that duck soup now.
I missed your China videos, glad to see you back :)
Definitely will trial when come to Sydney next. I am Nanjing native live in Christchurch, New Zealand
Such an amazing video sis. Keep it up. Happy New Year. May this year brings lot's of happiness and love.
.....
Duck-licious :-), your dad definitely kicked up the show to a different level
I love eating all kinds of ducks. Thank you Amy for your excellent videos as always!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting! ❤️
Nanjing roasted duck, similar to Peking duck, but more delicious.
Salted duck is more less oily
Greetings from Nanjing! Andy's right, Peking duck actually originates from Nanjing, after Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang died, his son moves Ming's capital from Nanjing to Beijing, and so do Nanjing's ducks and chefs, and it then they localized the NJ Roasted duck to Peking Duck!
There is a saying that goes "no duck on the Yangtze river can swim through Nanjing alive"
i enjoy seeing you guys eating
Your dad is spot on ..... I remember the Hingara from way back. Didn't know it still exist.
Omg,duck sandwich is such a creative invention. Adore your dad!
An excellent episode!
In Malaysia, the Chinese here usually buy the imported salted duck (and its only available) during the Chinese New Year period. It's the tradition of the local Chinese here to at least consume it during that period, and a meal is never complete without it.
love the genius idea duck sandwich came from your dad!
It was so gooood! Went back to the restaurant to get take away salty duck last week just to make sandwiches with it lol 😂
Your video is always very good, and you have the most amazing parents.
Your dad is so humble.
I love that these dishes use all parts of the animal, and then makes it delicious so you want yo eat it! I feel like here we we eat internal organs, even though it literally is just meat, we treat it like a delicacy and make it super weird and people eat it as a joke or prank.
It really is SUCH a shame how much of an animal that literally died to give us food we just throw away in Western cooking. We can learn so much about Chinese cuisine when it comes to this aspect of not wasting any food.
I love this restaurant!!!!
Love Nanjing and Huaiyang cuisine very much.
Super delicious!!
My dad makes the salted duck for us all the time , practically grew up with it ! Had no idea it is from Nanjing😛enjoyed the historical facts from Andy , he is indeed worthy of being the owner of the restaurant! Next time try the salted duck with some white boiled rice , it compliments it so well with the salted duck ! Wish I can one day come to Sydney to sample all the Chinese cuisines 🤤🤤 as always love watching your Chinese food adventures with your parents- they are such a blast !
Hey Ami, There are two nanjing restaurants in Burwood 南京大排档 and 秦淮食府 both have some specialty nanjing cuisines if you wanna try more.
Amy, you and China Traveller (Stu) have the best Parent adventure series! I'm digging these virtual restaurant series I get to go on! On the list: Xinjiang, Yunnan, Taiwanese, Gansu, Guangdong cuisines!
Before watching the whole thing, I mean, just at a glance at the title, I was think about duck meat sanwich. And you did it! Nanjing slated duck sanwich, approved! Also, Andy is great! Oh god, I miss Nanjing!
Duck blood is one of my favorite dishes for hotpot 😍so good
Ohh never tried blood in hotpot before! Will try next time
Great video please keep them coming. Cheers from Canada
Thanks so much for watching!! ❤️
I almost fall in love with this restaurant in Sidney!! When I was in Nanjing, if I want to eat all this dishes, in the most of the time I had to find different place for its authentic, because it’s true that there are some restaurants which sell duck blood soup don’t make salty duck. By the way, love you and your parents and your videos!!
Hi, I'm an expat working in Beijing, I only found out about Nanjing ducks when my friends from Nanjing visited me in Beijing 2 years ago and cooked me some delicious duck, including the Nanjing salted duck! I second the motion, Nanjing Salted Duck is so good, much better than the Hainan boiled chicken.
