Chinese Food Sichuan - Chinese Street Food - Street Food China
Chinese food gets more interesting the deeper you go. I set off for Chinese street food and cuisine in deep southern Sichuan province by bicycle. I rode my bike down deep into Southern China's lush and mountainous liangshan region, in search of delicious Chinese street food and Chinese food. The Chinese food really was different in this region. The liangshan region is home to Chinese Yi ethnic minority, who have their own cuisine. It was very rural and in some areas also very poor, so I had difficulty finding the yi cuisine at first. Later in the second half of the video, I found a Yi restaurant and had a Chinese food feast! The little village I visited was called Butuo, about 120 km from Xichang.

HUGE THANKS to ExpressVPN for offering all Food Ranger viewers 3 months free and 49% off their yearly package using this link: ExpressVPN.com/Thefoodranger . Travelers need ExpressVPN to stay safe online and to unblock any site. I personally use it for Netflix, even while at home in Canada, but also while traveling to unblock content and episodes that are geoblocked, and I also use it for security, because airport wifi and hotel wifi is often very insecure, leaving my data vulnerable. By connecting to one of their servers around the world, it’s just like my computer or phone is in that location, and all data sent while connected to their VPN is secure, safe, and private from others to see, so I know that my data won’t be hacked or looked at by others.

How come u speak Chinese so fluently? When did you learn Chinese?

It felt good to be there.. From Dhaka Bangladesh
Wow! You really made it into the deep countryside! You're so different from most food bloggers who visit only the most famous spots. Respect!
This is a rural area in a remote mountainous area 6 years ago, but even if you go and see it today, it is completely different, with brand new streets, many farmers have bought houses in cities, and almost every family has a car.
This is a food review that goes deeper than stuffing your mouth. The way the woman asked you for water, the way you shared your huge luxury meal. It puts a deeper meaning to food. We are blessed to have food and drink at our leisure. Thanks for your true authenticity.
definitely Sun; shows a capacity for both's love and caring - what our poor little planet need so much now ;

who else thinks the houses and buildings design is just INSANELY beautiful
7:07 that lady is so kind, one potato was enough for her although she's poor. Her smile was so beautiful although she may not knew what is Canada.
She was not actually asking for food, she was just like accepting a friendly share of food from a stranger so she says one is enough. Sharing food to show friendliness is common in Chinese rural area and culture.
Canada sounds like “where is your home”in Chinese ,so she asked twice times...Maybe she still can’t understand Canada is a country
@@zlz95 Yep she knows she can repay the same kindness because it's just a potato that's why she took it.
吖吖爱吃肉 Canada？加拿大？家哪哒？😂
She knows what Canada is ... 3 rotting in jail for No fault of theirs
This guy makes me understand and love being human. Crossing boundaries to see how other people live is so beautiful, not to mention living with them.
I usually hate food reviewing channels because all they do is set up a cheap camera on their dash and eat some new fast food item, however this channel is filled with enthusiasm and happiness. Glad I found this channel a few weeks ago.
He really goes balls deep in the Chinese culture.
+skagworm Leaves just the chopsticks hangin out
Rural china is really beautifull . The roads look really developed even in rural regions and the food looks great
that's possibly the poorest region you can find in China... yet it is beautiful, both landscape and people, and I'd like to visit for once in my lifetime!

vaibhav shukla see rural China has much similarity with India. Kids working on fields for feeding their stomach
@@hellonrld2508 No. Don't try to hide your slums. We all know about them
@@rishabh9389 no i didn't hide and they cannot be hidden, it's just a matter of having a good weekend in a beautiful yet possibly poor place lol.
i love how they brought you a big plate of potatoes, and you didnt really know what to do with them. So you give a potato to one of the locals, and she looked equally confused 😂
i wish this video was longer, great vid amazing experience that had to be
strongly suggest u watching the 'a bite of china'
I wish that too
Amazing! That is the true spirit of exploration! Maybe one day I'll try it myself. Cheers from Brazil matte!
strongly recommend u to watch the 'a bite of china',bro.

That guy 3:00 was so friendly! "byebye" hahah loved him
omg i love how kind and open you were to everyone. the food reviews were also great! thank you!!
Speaking the language goes so far you can tell on the locals faces! Wonderful video!
Agreed!! It's insane to me that, unlike you, there are negative ppl who do nothing but point out the flaws in his pronunciation. You and I are in the minority of ppl who appreciate his attempts at their language. I say, all u need to do is look at the way the ppl he meets appreciate him
Amazing videos!! Seeing them living such a simple and happy life just make the video super enjoyable!! 👍
Hard life, but still happy
👍
Yi people are one of the poorest ethnic minority in China. Not sure how you define happiness, but life there is really hard.
The person who made the original comment is a person who has had wealth all of their life. Only people who have been well off say things like that and don't really understand a lot of people are just trying to make it.
Not sure where you saw "Happiness", I think most of these people were just surprised to be on camera. He said part way through the video kids were out working the fields instead of in school, and a lady was desperate for water. At the end you saw a boy who had no idea what "Canada" even was. The last part was super odd... why would you give someone a potato unless you thought they were desperate for food?
You giving a potato to stranger shows you humanity. You are so friendly.
Nice video and an awsome Food Ranger.
Wow man, this was amazing.
Hey Siddharth! Glad you enjoyed the video!
Siddharth Kumar
Yes?
Siddharth Kumar and
WR3ND
太好了!!!!!! U crack me up when u say that! It is like you are super-stoned or just super-Canadian ;) just a real nice guy i think, good job, peace from Fujian.
Id say super canadian
He's so excited about everything :). The locals probably weren't used to someone as energetic and exuberant about everything as he is. The lady was pretty taken aback when he offered her a potato lol. Also, his Chinese is quite good. You can tell he's definitely not a native speaker, but very proficient, and he can understand just about everything they say.
Your chinese skills impressed me and actually made me think that it's about time to start learning chinese myself.
Great video man, i will go there one day too and meet these beautiful people
Chutiya
if only we can speak and understand the entire language of the world, we might as human can unite. This is beautiful to see him exploring and communicating, you can see that humans are kind, only the languages are seperating us.

+Fred Stiening Very interesting, never heard of it. Thanks for sharing, i learned something valuable today. ✌🤗
Very true!!!
+The Food Ranger I love what you are doing, you are a very lucky human to explore and interact with other humans. We don't need war, or violence just to get in touch with each other. Communication, Appreciation, and Connection is what we need. Keep it up, You are a good soul.
Uniting removes difference and diversity.
i loved you shared food with that lady 👍
you earned subscription
She had a "I don't want your stinkin potatoes, I'll accept one because courtesy, but that's plenty" look :D was so awkward.. "You want me to dance and sing for you now, that you gave me a potato?".
She probably grows her own potatoes lol
@@aa-oy7zu she is a farmer, farmers grow potatos...
Absolutely amazing review! Great work Trevor
"WOWWW I have no idea how we're gonna eat all that!!" hahahah!! You are the best. Keep rockin!!
How does he know the language fluently? I've been trying to learn the Korean way of saying hello for three days
A ni a say yo!
+jo ki Is that Hello in Korean? if it is, I still can't remember it 😂
+Tazzii K I think it is more along the lines of annyeonghaseyo, but I'm not Korean so don't take my word for it
Tazzii K ahh I see, no problem :)
apparently he tried speaking chinese for more than 3 days. :)
you knows it bad news when hes goes like "Mmmmmm" then escalates to "it okays. its alright."
lol.....
That's because he did it wrong - supposed to soak the fried dough into the sweet soy milk, like how you would eat cereal
:p
Yes, he didn't like the soup or the buckwheat cakes. Never saw that happen before. Usually he will drink pure cooking oil with rotten fish heads and declare it as amazing.
@@CatLost_Waiting
Cantonese rice soup served with fried-dough.
Beautiful thanks for sharing your story with us and your food with the locals. You speak their language very well I'm sure they were impressed.
This was an awesome video. Really like how you shined a light on this region and the people, most importantly.
I love how grateful you are. Subbed.
Thanks for subscribing!
It's so nice of him to share food with that lady on the street. I can tell she doesn't know of Canada though.
他不知道加拿大是个什么- - ，毕竟那里的人们只为一日三餐所忙碌。。
love the more rural off the beaten track deep stuff. big fan. keep up the good work! ti hau la!
Awesome video! You can really see how much work you put in it to get to the food. Can't wait for the next one
Watched all your videos and love every single one of them. Thank you so much or showing us all of these delicious cuisine. You should try some Cantonese street food. Keep it up James!!!
Hi Jia hua Huang! Awesome, so glad to hear you love my videos, thanks so much!!!
he knows how to eat and be gracious! I like him!
Bro i really cant stress this enough: You have the best job ever!
Love your show and you're very good with Chinese culture and language! Thank you for sharing!
thank for video this place. I was there for voluntary work 7 years ago. it's still suffering from extreme poverty today, but its food is awesome and primitive. I am in Canada now, missing the food in china so much.
This is good and best one I saw.
Wow thanks so much buddy!
Keep doing what you are doing! Your video are so fascinating.
omg! your so amazing! love watching you explore different kinds of food.
Nonono you dip the dough in the soy milk it's hella good
Rocco Palen good combo
Rocco Palen hi, keven, I am Mike.
Rocco Palen nah dip the fried dough in the congee not plain tho that’s bad.
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈 that's the quitessencen of Chinese Breakfast
Rocco,
This guy is a cook and he knew what he is doing. Actually, in SF, the Cantonese restaurants serve rice soup with the oil-fried dough.
Wow, this video was so great. All your videos are amazing and so great to watch. Feels like home every single time :)
Hi Mischa! So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for sharing man, awesome video
thats what its all about mate sharing with others who are not as well off as we are, look at the joy of the people when you shared,you have a good heart
Awesome vid Trevor. It's great that you take your show out of the cities and show us the rural China and her minorities. More of the same please.
No More same place. Liangshan is one of the poorest areas in China. But it is a great place to find original food.
So what if it's the poorest place in China? China is many worlds in one. There should be more shows like this to document them, rich or poor.
Hey buddy! Thanks a lot! Great to hear from you! Yeah there are so many awesome places in China!
Really enjoyed watching this. The food looked DELICIOUS !
I would of sooooo tried some of it, I like trying new kinds of food.
Watching from Indiana. (USA)
This guys has a wonderful way of putting all he has shared with us. I enjoy every video and hope to continue to watch his up coming visits. This man needs his own show!!! Very exciting to watch. Thanks and keep up the great work.
Awesome video! Enjoy watching it. Keep up!
As a Chinese who have traveled 1/3cities in China, I've never been that deep far in China rural areas! Thank you Trevor for sharing that with us. And would you mind to share your tour guide like how to be there?
im chinese and i dont even get to eat food like what ur eating so sad and i dont really go back to china that much but thx to u i can still see china thank u so much :)
I want to travel to China one day .. Seems like an amazing country.. however I am kind of scared to travel and don't have a lot of money.
😂😂😂
well come to QingDao province
卢玉冰
province其实是“省”的意思哦
你应该写作 Qingdao City（青岛市）
American only shows the evil part of China. This rural area is simplest beautiful
Thank you so much for sharing your experience!
You're hitting it out of the park, TJ! - keep it rolling, hugs and thumbs up
Pretty much just watch these videos and Munchies. Keep up the good work man
WOW, you managed to visit Liangshan! That’s literally the poorest place you can find in China Lol
Are you from china?
也不能说最穷，只能算最穷之一。我生活在这的一个国家级贫困县。😔
哪里比大凉山还穷
food ranger you are so nice for giving people free food! you have a really kind heart!
Really good video. Lovin it
as a Chinese my biggest dream is to travel every china corner
@sanjay puranik it's not that possible..china is too big. and the geography is more complicated than america and russia..
@sanjay puranik i live in guangdong and travelled many city in guangdong. but i never go to the north or west part of china. i hope i can go to XinJiang , Harbin, Tibet, NingXia one day😄
@sanjay puranik as a Guangdong people. I have to say Guangzhou's food is the best😁. Welcome to visit China again😁
@@beefjielan1650 why guangdong people hate's people from henan province
@sanjay puranik I'm Russian and I have only been there when I was a baby. It's not uncommon, yet it's still unfortunate.
it's crazy how rural you guys were willing to 'bike' to. This is the China my mom's family grew up in, it's primitive but good to see there's still these kind of villages (I' m sure there're still plenty) around. It's hard life.
Alan KS exactly hard life.
but very beautiful, Mo(a?)net's art of simplicity , and nature all around as the dressings
still plenty…. You know nothing
Authorities are clearing those villages into paddyfields and giving affordable houses in residential areas.
You're a so lucky guy, Tasting all those delicious country food. Thanks for sharing and give us this beautiful point of view of china. Hope one day I'll have my way.
Thank you for sharing this video. Beautiful place to visit.
dip the 油条 into the sweet soymilk. One of my favorite breakfast.
Damn! Love you man! Amazing
Hi Aamir Shaikh! Wowwww thanks a lot!! That's so nice to hear, glad you enjoy my channel!
I am glad you replied! thank you for making such videos. looking forward to more of your mind blowing food adventures. Appreciations from India!!
My hero!! I teach English online to Chinese students.
It is wonderful to see and learn the culture.
Thanks for your work( fun)☺
Really enjoyed watching it. And now want to watch more.
A picture of me is hanging on a wall somewhere in south suchian with my friend, we had to change bus and get something to eat, and they asked to take a picture of us in front of their menu. China is a blast :D I only wish i could stay permanently.
wow your videos are addicting! your very welcoming! new subscriber! keep the videos coming! :)
Thank you so much!! Glad you've subbed and like the vids!
The Food Ranger eating all this food I could last entire month without square meals
The Food Ranger Awesome video!
this was a good video . i was just randomly watching it while having breakfast .. now i want to go to china
awesome trip . And good cycling too . Good job you took a good appetite with you.
I'm more interested in the blond smoking a Newport at 1:01 ......I bet she has some interesting stories to tell.
Maybe, only few Chinese women smoke
LOL i am not the only one noticed the blonde
Not sure that "blond" is a natural,lol.

南無阿彌陀佛 🌷你好
I'm so jealous of you, I so wish I could do that.
You really have an adventurous spirit !! Keep going !
Loved the episode.. Nice work
I love your chanel , new subscriber for you 😉
Hi DreniCak4LF, thanks a lot for subscribing! I hope you enjoy my vids!
Thanks to this guy, I definitely know how to say "awesome" in Mandarin
LOL
the enthusiasm in your report is contagious
Really off the beaten path which makes it that much more interesting.
fuckin guy is crazy....nice people ....try south america....u might not make it back😂....the Asians seem really respectful and down to earth....simple life happy life
I don't think I've seen more Chinese beauty than the girl at 3:25. Astonishing, and just goes to show that natural hardworking life is the healthiest. Mad respect to Chinese food and culture from Pakistani.
She was gorgeous wasn't she? Her skin and delicate features!
Pakistan China friendship forever.
Knock knock! This is the FBI!
Lol jokes aside, farm life seems rad
She looks like she could be anyone one or a combination of the 56 different ethnic groups in China. But since Trevor mentioned Yi minority in the video and his description, I'm going to go with Yi minority or Yi mix.
Get over yourself, good looks does not equate to healthiness. That and good genes trumps everything.
very enjoyable to watch your adventures. great job man!
Your awesome 👍🏻thanks for sharing these great videos, please keep them coming🙏
this video makes me feel hungry :P
Just telling you you're supposed to dip the Chinese doughnut in the soy milk
Yes, dip in soya milk. Although in Hong Kong they put the you-tiao in porridge.
icewarm2 lol is it true you dig youtiao in coffee in Singapore?
Tekhelet75 it sounds like a very typical combination of east and west
And soy sauce in Shanghai.
Dipping in sweet soy milk sounds delicious. In Hong Kong they dip it in the rice porridge, which I am not a fan of suffice to say.
Mind blowing!!!! The beautiful landscape and those yummy foodies...
awesome video, and that food looks very good
When I was a small kid I wanted to become a Forest Ranger
Now that I am older I want to to become a Food Ranger XD
duude!!! I wanna join you...
Just subscribed. Amazing video and the food looks amazing. I'm a chef from Finland and these videos inspire me. Good work!
Hey ! Trevor….you are a true food lover your rendering of all the narrations is unique…pleasure to watch,has lots of insights. keep it going ….all the best.
damned such a good vid. the peeps are awsome too...😘
strongly recommend u to watch the 'a bite of china'
1:17 lol who repeated him😂😂
Lamar Blackman he repeated him because he asked so fun and he said so fun? In a nice way.
very interesting and informative video!!
Everything looks good and wonderful! !!
Hey Trev how do you meet all of your local friends?!
the last sounds of the chicken before its death though... 07:32
:(:(
Love these types of your videos! Would you consider sometime going into the mountains in Guizhou and eat Buyi food?
Great video!!!!

Youtiao should be dipped in soy sauce for flavour, and the porridge will balance the flavour out or it can be eaten with soy milk (the classic combination). It can also be paired with dabing (大饼), dabing can either be savoury or sweet depending on your personal preference. P.S the combination of youtiao and dabing is commonly found in Shanghai.
Oh and one more combination, youtiao can be wrapped in cifan which is glutinous rice along with some sugar. That's one of my personal favourites.
Sharing food was great brother.
