Diana is awesome!!! And it's really amazing how you randomly dropped by a restaurant in Italy and ended up with a wonderful friend (and another wonderful trip to Chengdu) out of it! Noemi's chicken catching skill deserves some recognition here. LOL
I'll visit 老成都 this sunday evening! after Guns'n'Roses concert 😀😀
Hey guys, noemi here! 50k likes and I'll fight another chicken 🎉
I like that Amy is unapologetic about the killing of the chicken. Where do people think our food comes from? The chicken was healthy, well looked after and had freedom to roam its whole life. And then they didn't just cook the 'best' bits, but used every part, blood, innards, everything except the feathers. This is what responsible animal husbandry and food consumption looks like. I really enjoyed this video.
Even the feathers, can also make "Jian Zi" for play😄
exactly.....
my australian cousins came and saw grandma slaughter chickens for new year feast and they became vegan straightaway lolol. true story
Guess what, you can be apologetic and still eat it.
@@DaisukiMF that
It is fun to watch you make friends with everyone you meet and incorporate them into your videos so naturally, spontaneously and effortlessly.
This is so cool, meeting someone in Rome then touring Chengdu together
I was so pleased to be introduced to Chinese Garlic Chives - I now have them growing in my year as an edible edging plant - they are AMAZING!
Chinese chives have unique effects. In Chinese medicine, chives can increase physical health and make people more motivated。
@@jrwkd6114Emma is referring to garlic leaves. If you get some garlic, half bury them in soil, they will eventually grow into something similar grass blades but in the size of a chive. They taste garlicky, with a nice grassy texture.
@@tipinwings No nothing to do with actual garlic or garlic leaves, it is a type of chive with the name "garlic" chive. Similar but different.
你要是学会割韭菜，你就会一年四季源源不断得到韭菜。
chives and egg pancake is the best.
Yay! I’m going to China in a week and your vids are getting me so pumped
Ahhh have the best time in China!
欢迎你访问中国
如果有需要我很乐意成为你的中国的免费导游

welcome
Diana's farm to table knowledge is incredible and enlightening ; a truly gracious and warm person !
@16:43 That mahjong table is next level ! Something one might see in a James Bond 007 movie !
Well Amy - you continue to wow us !!
Lol i love how Diana was trying to haggle a deal as a true native, even on camera. Love it!
What an entertaining episode! The part with the “hunt” for the chicken had me rolling on the floor laughing. Thank you!
What a truly amazing loaded episode, one of my favourite so far this year. Diana can definitely give Peter a run for his money as your capable food guide! :D
this young woman just makes me smile, and I love seeing what her taste buds get up to!
I think there has been a misunderstanding here. Amy, I know you asked if you should dip the bread into the sauce, but they thought you asked if the breads are going to fall into the pot, they kept saying: "no no the bread will stick to the side, this is how they do it, it won't fall".
What a lovely video. I love how a chance meeting resulting in something so much richer. A local is the best travel guide.
so cool how serendipity works!! diana is so knowledgeable and loved her in this vid
I think this is one is my favourite of all your video's (apart from the ones with Peter). It was such a joy to watch you all trying such delicious food, I really wish I was with you. I want to visit that place that makes the sauces, it was so interesting. Thanks Amy, you are the best!
Definitely one of the most wholesome videos!
You have the charm to make friends with people no matter where on earth you go.
18:28 omg yes!! This is one of the many cultural shocks I experienced when I moved to china for my exchange year, my chinese host mother often served these small tomatoes like a dessert, just a bunch of them all cut to small pieces and covered with sugar (similar to how we serve strawberries with sugar in italy as a dessert). I had no idea "sweet" tomatoes tasted so nice! It was a very interesting food discovery 😄
Been watching you for years, this is one of the best vids to date! Really love the vibe. I esp love the part where y'all went to Pi Du and got to taste some of the most iconic flavours of China in the process of fermentation.
Hi Amy, I think the corn bread can be dipped in, just not straight into the wok，rather scooping up the juice into a bowl then dipping in. During that conversation, you were asking whether it can be 沾著吃，yet the question was mistaken as whether the bread would fall into the wok, and they answered, 不會掉下去，no, ‘it was designed this way, won’t fall’⋯⋯
bingo！you can have it by any way you want。
That makes sense. I was wondering why bread would be served with a meal if it isn’t supposed to be dipped. It looked so good though.
You are right about that.
Nice job Blondie !Glad I discovered your channel last year 😊
Cheers from San Diego California 🇺🇸
Thanks for watching!!!
@@BlondieinChina You should do a video with ThomasAfu. He is German.
ha same here San Diego CA
You cannot believe my father's home town is in the video and I visit there so many times. Thanks Ammy. Right now I am in Sydney 😀
I really love watching your food adventures, this one just hit my heart. I'm from Sichuan, spent 4 years in Pixian(college stuff), now I'm in the US, havn't been back for 4 years. I miss my hometown so much especially the food. It feels so happy as well as homesick watching this video.
I respect this channel cause the Author speaks the language!! Seriously!!
That chicken feast, into some mahjong and then closing it off with bingfen seems like literal heaven.
At 19′40″ of the video, the Chinese subtitle used the phrase "因缘际会," which is truly excellent! The translation is very accurate and particularly poetic!
Thank you Blondie for broadcasting our beautiful Chengdu, China. Downtown Chengdu becomes too commercialized and modern. You went to the right place and I can still feel the old style Chengdu living from our videos :) which is a much slower work-life pace with plenty of delicious and organic food. Enjoy!
Catching chicken was my favorite part.
only that in Sichuan, in the markets we locals go to, the spot of killing chicken is always with the WORST smell. really bad smell omg huh huh
'i bend i don't break' lmaoo noemi is a legend. 😭
Welcome to Chengdu, Sichuan to taste delicious food，Dumplings are my favorite (especially the ones filled with chives)
The first ever UNESCO City of Gastronomy in all of Asia!
Of course it has the best food in the WORLD!
Hope to visit it again soon.
So cool to see where doubanjiang is made!
6:35 Wooooow 1.5 wontons per is actually unbelievable what skill!!
17:29 the "I don't know what happened" just killed me😂
I loved playing mahjong as a kid. It's like gin rummy with dragons and prevailing winds. I never learned Chinese so we played with the tiles with the numbers on the top right corner. I remember watching my grandmother play for money!
Chili oil dumplings, it looks spicy and tasty.
Also, important to know where each food ingredient come from and how it’s made.
Oh, I went to the same restaurant, Old Chengdu, when I was in Rome this April. Good day mate Amy.
You are spot on Amy! 栀子花 is in the jasmine flower family :) There's also another one that gets sold on the street in Sichuan, which looks like long slender white blossoms, they are called 缅桂花
Omg that mahjong table is awesome😮
Such a beautiful encounter
If you noticed the Chinese character for vinegar is 醋 is 20 days wine
Just checked the flight Melbourne to Chengdu return AUD700. Very tempting especially after watching your video!

I must say, it really is quite impressive how Amy manages to look more like a chicken than the chickens…
"40 wontons per minute." The fact that she can wrap the wontons faster than some people's typing speed...
The vegans are not going to be too fond of Amy the chicken hunter. 😬But it looks like it was sacrificed for a good cause, better than ending up in a KFC bucket.
Mahjong table is out of this world!
I don't play it too, but I love that table.
Only in China.
I think I understand what Diana was saying about Westerners not being used to Chinese Chives. I bought some once to make a chive pancake, and I found that after a while I thought they sort of smelled like something fermenting while being stored in the fridge??? I made my pancake the next day and it was wonderful, but the smell of the raw chives did throw me off a bit lol
I have been to this restaurant many times. Normally it’s my stop after my flight to Rome before hopping on a train to Naples.
Damn, I was in Chengdu just a couple of weeks ago, and I had no idea they had 刀削面!
Yes, there are actually many others, such as sweet water noodles, red oil fried noodles, and Sichuan style cold noodles. These noodles must be added with white sugar, and the traditional Sichuan chili sauce must have a sour, sweet, and spicy taste, so it is called a strange taste, which is authentic.
That's so cool, have fun!
The way the lady cut the noodles form a hump of dough reminds me of what the Germans call "spätzle". When home made it is also cut by hand from dough or pressed through a sieve. Ask your German boy friend.
Experiences by wondering around. Cheers.
The good news is finally from July 1st have Chengdu High speed train to HK already in West Kowloon station (Hong Kong) from Chengdu about 10 hours.
12:29 I laugh my head off! hahahahahahahha
So much fun.
Vinegar is basically like when your wine goes off/ferments.
OMG it looks infinite fun
I'have to say that In Roma, Diana look nicer than in Chengdu, the enviorment in Roma may be more fresh than in Sichuan, because the screen look clean on the previous video
i need those dumpling with chili oil in my life. lol!
Just a little bit of info for you A tomato is actually a fruit and not a vegetable although that is what it's most used as !
I didn't know they had soy beans in doubanjiang as well, had always thought it was only broad beans
Nico is in chengdu as well
In the meanwhile I went to Rome and had lunch in 老成都. I'd like to be your guide for Turin if you come back in Italy!
One 餐前 phrase for blondie, “起筷” is the Chinese version of “let’s eat”. 😊
What an amazing story!
It crakes me up when Noemi was tripped down by a chicken...
Heyyy! I’m Noemi and I swear that’s my daily life. Apparently I am a weird person. Jut few days ago I almost missed my flight because I went to the wrong airport. I'm such a scatterbrain. 😂
From Chengdu as well, really miss all the spicy food! Hopefully you enjoyed it! BTW, what VPN still works in China?
A lot,like ‘just my socks’ ‘biznet’……etc
Going to Chengdu and Qingchenshan this weekend.
My parents, who are from Taiwan, are also in the habit of eating small tomatoes out of hand as fruit.
Tomatoes entered China during the Ming Dynasty and were initially consumed in a fruit cup. When I was young, my parents often bought vegetables and quickly washed me a tomato to eat directly. It was large. A traditional cold dish, cut tomatoes into pieces, sprinkle with white sugar, and wait for more than half an hour, will be a must-have for summer heat relief, especially the juice in the bowl is particularly delicious.
Well TECHNICALLY tomato 🍅 IS a fruit.
Awesome video again
Thank you!!
Mums are the best.
those mahjong tiles are the biggest i've seen
Hi! I’m Noemi. In Sichuan Majiang tiles are bigger. IDKW but I’ve seen this kind of set only in Sichuan. 😂
I like the way you talk.
What impresses is that you can eat food freshly prepared. None of the factory foods made in some industrial park and delivered to be heated or just fried finished at the eatery. Hope China doesn't go tye way of factory foods.
Hi Amy will be appreciated if you could let us know the name brand for this Sichuan sauce and hopefully this will be available in the state ...
nice to see you in chengdu
Awww poor chicken 🪿
Great!
Instead of knife cut noodles, in American, they call it the hand shaven noodles.
where have you seen them in the US?
@@Marcel_Audubon you can find good authentic Chinese noodle houses in many US cities.
Great trip great editing.
Maybe you should learn how to play Mahjong, you will love Mahjong, it could be addictive🥰🥰🥰
A wonderful vlog....😊
Diana is very beautiful.
welcome to chengdu .
Hi, Amy. What brand of soy sauce, vinegar, and chili bean paste did you receive from the producer.? Is it something we can purchase online?
請問這家戰旗村賣的醬油和豆瓣醬淘寶有開網店賣嗎？😂很想買
郫县豆瓣，一搜就有很多了，各牌子味道相近，我们四川人也很难吃出区别来。
i am going april - any recommendation @ food in chengdu ?
today's movie is so funny🤣
I'm surprised you guys actually make it tgt to Chengdu. I thought it was just a plan, and not gonna happens so soon
Now l am a dumpling lover but they need to have the correct chilli sauce. Just because lm Aussie l ain't getting fooled . I know the real chilli
You are deeply affected by Dongbei now. I will not be surprised that one day your Chinese is Dongbei like.
awesome content. a fateful meeting!
加油艾米！你是最棒的❤❤❤
Technically, tomatoes are actually fruits.😎
Very tender, very favourable, VERY FRESH. 😅😅😂
The thing is, tomatoes, botanically, are a fruit... :D
封面看得我想吃饺子了
Excellent 👌👍
New place at your country ?
IT IS 铁锅炖
