One of these days, you are going to sit down and write a full compilation of cuisine found across the length and breath of China. It would be a best-seller.
10 RMB for the Kiwano fruit is quite affordable! I do occasionally see these fruits around in the supermarket here in Singapore, but they are a lot more expensive and actually, usually they are from New Zealand. So you might be able to find them in Australia too.
I can't wait to visit my family in China after 4 years. Keep up the excellent job, Amy! I have gotten quite a lot of food inspiration from your videos.
Hi Amy, we just found your channel about 2 weeks ago and we just love it! We live in America but my wife is from Shanghai. We are hoping to go visit family there in a couple of months. We usually watch about 3 of your videos every night. Can't wait to see the next new video and to continue watching the previous videos. We have subscribed and like every video!
Big mistake watching this right before dinner time because I was absolutely famished watching this! And is it just me or is Amy’s videos getting more and more entertaining… literally LOLed while riding the metro! 😂😂 You are so refreshing Amy just like the lemongrass-garlic-chili-powder-whack-bang-of-a-combo!!!
I was there in Nov 2019! Brought back so many memories. I loved this night market so much that I went twice in my 3 days there😂 wonder if we had the grills at the same stall!
Absolutely hectic to try the cuisine in the night market, as the boneless chicken leg looks heaven, along with a pineapple juice in a pineapple skinned jar/cup.
It's definitely not a good idea to watch this when you are hungry. It makes me drool. ^.^ But that jackfruit with sticky rice and the spiky fruit is the most that I want to try. :) Keep making these amazing videos Amy and thank you for sharing your experiences...
As a Chinese living in us, and I am so excited to see your videos as I have been to those palaces and ate all the food you have ate 😅 thanks for the wonderful contents.
It's around midnight here and supprisingly I'm watching this video full of delicious food. This is really a bad time to watch it since no food delivery service is available this moment.😂
As a Chinese borned outside of China, I learned a lot from Amy's videos. I always thought the Chinese food I had are not much different from China. I was wrong.
China is safe, convenient, things are affordable, endless selections of tasty food, and you can always find something to do there even late at night. It's just vibrant and full of life all the time.
this and your last video are really interesting to see personally b/c i didn't even know this region existed?!??! so thank you for broadening my worldview a little here :] that dessert looked amazing - jackfruit is one of my favorites & i've always been intrigued by the sticky rice/fruit combo so i feel like i need to try that sometime if i ever get the chance
for christmas my mom created a tradtion of having "exotic fruits" when i was a kid. I remember the horned melon - I didn't like the flaovr that much, but it was fun to look at and fun to eat
Amy, that fruit (horned melon?) is available here in Australia. I first saw it in Sydney (must’ve been something like Top Juice) I thought it looked so odd that I asked them what it was and they gave me a piece to try! I’m from Guangzhou and have been back to visit a gazillion times + been to other cities in China but had no idea this city existed! It looks amazing, the atmosphere is buzzing 💕
I did my bachelor's in Kunming around 10 years ago. Just felt the pricing the market is a lot higher than what I would expect... Maybe it is a tourist spot?
@@whatswhite110 more likely the neighbouring countries has the influence of China culture as they are also chinese people in cambodia and laos to be correct.
That fruit, the Kiwano, we have in most supermarkets in Sydney. First time I saw those was back in the 1970s Adelaide (I'm old). They taste okay as a fruit in fruit salad, but nothing special. Like Star Fruit - they look cool but they're not much to taste.
What a coincidence. The dish recommended to the yellow haired laowei is also the most expensive on the menu. Still, boneless chicken feet sounds real good.
If someone tells you their most popular dish is the cheapest on the menu, how would you feel? Wouldn’t a vendor charge their most popular dish the most?
@@niuchajianfa6222 It doesn't work that way. If you're a tourist for a week, then yes, it's a $3 meal. If you live and work there, earning less than $20/day, like the vender probably does, it's a lot of money.
Basically commonThai food and snacks except that it's in southern China!! Tom yam king must be there somewhere. Thai pork/ spawn BBQ. Do jot forget mango in coconut milk. Lightly salted to due for
5:41 Fun fact, the Dai（傣）ethnic group is the same ethnic group in Thailand （泰）, you guys can probably tell by the pronunciation. so it's quite common to see Thai food in Yunnan.
I'm wondering if you tried to learn the Tai Lue language or learn a Tai Lue song, I know there're some amazing ethnic singers in Jinghong. Oh and by the way, from what I know Jinghong means "dawn" in the Tai Lue language.
Boneless chicken feet. Count me in. No marfan! I couldn’t even get to the end of the video before commenting
You will LOVE boneless chicken feet dad! Can't wait to see you try them for the first time
@@BlondieinChina When will your parent visit China? I am looking forward for their visit.
@@kamingchau3643 Haha me too!
Hi John!
daddy blondie!!!!!!! kyaaa im a fan
Food like this is why I live in China ❤️
Just saw those horned melons at the local 多伦多 T&T grocery, wasn't sure what to do with them. ;-)
@@spehropefhany I’m Chinese and my first time knew this melon was also in Toronto T&T😂
@@spehropefhany saw that melon selling in US cost like...$12 per melon😢
Watching Amy interests me to go to China. I'm considering it
Enjoying the beauties of China through your videos, whenever you describe food, scenery or just show us you relating with people. Thank you Amy!
One of these days, you are going to sit down and write a full compilation of cuisine found across the length and breath of China. It would be a best-seller.
Wow, another great episode! I hope everyone can see how much Amy loves China. In this episode, the nice Australian accent came out really nice!
The variety of Chinese food can't be compared with any other country in the world。
Because we have 56 ethnic groups, very proud of it🎉
As well as the food safety crisis.
@@lumpython5351many countries are worse
Looks like China is totally back to normal, so crowded at this night market!
10 RMB for the Kiwano fruit is quite affordable! I do occasionally see these fruits around in the supermarket here in Singapore, but they are a lot more expensive and actually, usually they are from New Zealand. So you might be able to find them in Australia too.
Are you sure Kiwano is from New Zealand not Nigeria or somwhere? I don't see them anywhere in New Zealand. We have Kiwifruits in New Zealand.
Actually, when Amy checked her phone, the description text displayed was "The same kind of fruit that Thanos ate!"
Auntie Amy.......🤣 you are so funny and full of energy ! I am hungry just watching you. Well done.
I can't wait to visit my family in China after 4 years. Keep up the excellent job, Amy! I have gotten quite a lot of food inspiration from your videos.
I was really looking forward to this vlog! thanks for posting so quickly!
Yay! I hope you like it!
I’m in Xishuangbanna right now and needing some food inspiration. Of course my favourite food RUclipsr delivered! 😆
It looks like the cuisine in Yunnan province shares similarities with cuisine from Thailand, Laos and Cambodia. Very nice!
My thoughts too!
The Dai people of China and the Thai people are of the same nationality
@@shenbian9200 Shared ancestry. Not the same nationality

What a fun busy place. A bit surprised you went for the grilled tofu after the ‘balloon’ tofu. But I agree the second one does look a bit deflated! :D
Omg I've been to many night markets over the years in different countries, this one actually looks insane!!!! Loved the video :)
"Tofu Balloon"...very nicely put and highly triggering at the moment😂

Wow, surely it is a huge food market, thanks for sharing. Enjoy your clip.
Thanks for watching!!
My Tuesday Morning habit will be watching a new video from you!!
Yay! Thank you!
I have yet to experience a night market. This one looks beautiful, especially from where you were standing!
这个有点偏东南亚风格了
@@zijiaodai4006so？
I was there in Nov 2019! Brought back so many memories. I loved this night market so much that I went twice in my 3 days there😂 wonder if we had the grills at the same stall!
Oh and there’s a restaurant nearby serving yellow curry crab, sooo Delish
Absolutely hectic to try the cuisine in the night market, as the boneless chicken leg looks heaven, along with a pineapple juice in a pineapple skinned jar/cup.
That market looks great, well worth popping over from Thailand for. It's on my list. Eat more there please
做为一个云南人来告诉你，到景洪吃烧烤一定要去曼飞龙烧烤城，点烤鸡、烤五花肉、烤罗非鱼，再配上一杯冰啤酒。说得我口水都流下来了😂
想吃🥲🤤🥲🤤🥲🤤
这集很精彩，这也是我的梦想，去小吃街尝尽各种美味，看了你的视频好像我也去了一趟似的，nice， enjoy
It's definitely not a good idea to watch this when you are hungry. It makes me drool. ^.^
But that jackfruit with sticky rice and the spiky fruit is the most that I want to try. :)
Keep making these amazing videos Amy and thank you for sharing your experiences...
I wish we had more markets like this in the United States. Yum!
A sea of hawker stalls is probably an Asian thing. 😂
Hope you and Derk have a great Valentines day.
As a Chinese living in us, and I am so excited to see your videos as I have been to those palaces and ate all the food you have ate 😅 thanks for the wonderful contents.

She look so happy n excited to live in china also safe n fun to do what she doing❤😮🎉wish to go visit soon….
As a Chinese borned outside of China, I learned a lot from Amy's videos. I always thought the Chinese food I had are not much different from China. I was wrong.
Really so jealous of you that you are visiting so many places in China ! Definitely in my bucket list , hope one day I can do it as welllll.
China is safe, convenient, things are affordable, endless selections of tasty food, and you can always find something to do there even late at night. It's just vibrant and full of life all the time.
You seem to be at the Starlight Night Market in Xishuangbanna. You should go and experience the Dai dance. Yes, there are bars with Dai performances
this and your last video are really interesting to see personally b/c i didn't even know this region existed?!??! so thank you for broadening my worldview a little here :]
that dessert looked amazing - jackfruit is one of my favorites & i've always been intrigued by the sticky rice/fruit combo so i feel like i need to try that sometime if i ever get the chance
Priceless.. love to watch your videos. :)
I’m curious to know how do you get around if don’t own a car, are buses and other public transport frequent on the south?
usually these places have a lot public transport, dont worry the trransport in china lol
You will be surprised by the public transportation system in China.never need to worry about there is any inconvenience to get somewhere.
哈哈，这个老外在中国每吃一口新食物都感觉在冒险。太刺激了。
That fruit Kiwano (火参果) is interesting. Have never heard of it before.
Essentially, it tastes like cucumber. Well, it is in the same family with cucumber.
It tastes like cucumber. And very expensive
OK,In Xishuangbanna,It's not that expensive
for christmas my mom created a tradtion of having "exotic fruits" when i was a kid. I remember the horned melon - I didn't like the flaovr that much, but it was fun to look at and fun to eat

Same here! I live in China all my life and never knew this city existed. Obviously, I'm a fail Chinese. Lol!
西双版纳你们不知道么？╮(￣▽￣)╭
I will keep my eye out for it Melbourne! It looks like an electrified custard apple!
西双版纳！有这么不出名吗
I am salivating through this entire video.
Yes it's definitely a dream! Love love love this place.
The food is so good in China. I'm glad I move here. Definitely visiting this city soon
OMG!l love this vibe and the sticky rice with jackfruit! I can imagine how delicious it is, I get myself a 5D iPad 😂
Loved it! Wish I am there! Cheers from frozen Canada
What a fun place to be! Adding XSBN to my travel bucket list
Amy, you have done it again! I think I will have to go to Xishuangbanna myself. It is so beautiful 😍. Thank you, Amy 😊 💖 . Stay blessed 🙌
love the hustle and bustle.
Hey Amy! Such a wonderful video as always. Looking forward to seeing MORE soon.🥳🍢🍹
China looks amazing 🤩
The greatest blonde of all time
I did my bachelor's in Kunming around 10 years ago. Just felt the pricing the market is a lot higher than what I would expect... Maybe it is a tourist spot?
everthing in this video is so new to me, even as a chinese i haven't met any one of them before
You can get this "horned melon " in the Chinese markets and online grocery in the U.S.
the words you use to describe the food are pretty amazing and hit the point of the food very accurate
That's so cool, have fun!
Glad I cooked some Thai food to eat while I watch, the perfect pairing! I do wish I had some of that horned melon though 🤤
the dressing and food has the influence of neighboring countries of thai/cambodia/laos food
你确定你是华裔是中国人？有没一种可能，你说反了？
@@whatswhite110 more likely the neighbouring countries has the influence of China culture as they are also chinese people in cambodia and laos to be correct.
Quite the hectic place, thank you for sharing!
next time, when you feel some food too salty, just tell the sellers, they will give you another.

What a coincidence. The dish recommended to the yellow haired laowei is also the most expensive on the menu. Still, boneless chicken feet sounds real good.
But it’s in fact the most popular dish. Eating a chicken feet without those bones is a bless.
If someone tells you their most popular dish is the cheapest on the menu, how would you feel? Wouldn’t a vendor charge their most popular dish the most?
又没多贵，而且这就是个小吃摊而已。再说招牌菜、看家菜最贵也最受欢迎不是很正常吗。
yes, $3 worth of food...what a scam!
@@niuchajianfa6222 It doesn't work that way. If you're a tourist for a week, then yes, it's a $3 meal. If you live and work there, earning less than $20/day, like the vender probably does, it's a lot of money.
Westerners have stereotypes about chicken feet. In fact, many chicken feet in Southeast Asia also come from mainland China.
Basically commonThai food and snacks except that it's in southern China!! Tom yam king must be there somewhere. Thai pork/ spawn BBQ. Do jot forget mango in coconut milk. Lightly salted to due for
刚查完你的list看有没有更新回到主页就更新啦！
Just foward to linkedin with my thousands of friends and followers...cheers Amy!

great video, thank you for sharing !
Wow this is in China? I thought it is Thailand. Never thought China has such place to visit. Amazing, thanks for the video.
Been there in 2019 , love that place . you are right there are many other shaokao places cheaper and better .
Do try the Buffalo Hotpot there.
If I want on these food journeys, my budget would be nonexistent, and I would look like Augustus Gloop.
Fun video Amy ! That night market seems interesting, but really hectic !
I love shaokao! they are one of my favorite food in the World!😋
Another great video ❤
when Amy said she set $100 budget, I just knew she would go beyond that 😊
Never seen this strange fruit!😃 That chicken feet dish does look yummy as cold starter!
If you watch Avengers Endgame, Thanos picked that fruit in the movie😂
The way you bite food really increases my appetite😂.
博主应该试一下那里的蒸的越南粉卷。
The kiwano actually comes from Africa and has become popular in other continents within the past 15 years or so.
What am I doing? A Chinese watching an Aussie introducing Chinese food, and I cannot stop watching........
I will probably over my budget by many times when many new food choices appear in front of me😂
Which camera are you using?it’s so cool
Extending the budget for the win!!
Spectacular lively travel guide to Starlight Night Market. And I LOVE your look, casually gorgeous👏👏
凉拌应该不算很贴切，这种食物的加工方式叫舂（读音为“冲”，chong，一声，写得有点像春天的春，但是下面不是日，不封口）。是西南少数民族，尤其是傣族的传统食物加工方式。也就是把食物放进mortar，然后用pestle将食物捣成半碎不碎。这么做出来的食物的benefit你的视频中已经讲得非常清楚啦。很喜欢你的影片！
Looks like the place to be at night. So much variety. Thanks for posting Amy
thanks for watching Kim!!
@@BlondieinChina Keep them coming Amy, I'm waiting with baited breath here in Dallas TX.🥰🥰
I usually feels happy after watching your video. Cheers.
THANK YOU for this amazing video, miss my hometown ❤
When will u come to Changsha， wanna see ur reaction on my hometown foods lol.
I would love to try that spiked ginseng drink
love this!
看了你的好几个视频，真的很感谢你对中国的宣传，其实中国很安全，而且也有很多很多的美食，有很多种出行方式可以穷游，也可以富游。 请务必多去玩一些地方 ，因为他们实在太美了 还要去一下西藏 ，我真的很向往！广州去400块钱就可以直达哈哈哈 我也准备四月底去玩云南玩 看完你的视频 我简直是太期待啦😁 欢迎全世界的友人来中国旅游，领略我们这每个城市的魅力！ BTW你的中中文说的真的特别好！

Never knew about this Kiwano fruit! Cool!
Kiwano is like a dragonfruit but laxative version 😂 it definitely helps you go #2!!
So many similar dishes to Thailand
this area is close to the broader between China and Thailand.
This area is bordering Myanmar where Dai ethnic lives in; there're even some Dai villages that half are in China and half are in Myanmar.
Meanwhile here in the Uk: beans on toast, fish and chips😂
