I been to this morning market 5 years ago. Maybe you should do one on the night market with that little girl as I never been to that. Be interested to see the difference.
7:46 When Amy asked her if she really didn't want one, she declined, as she has a thought of not wanting to burden Amy with the extra expense. 7:51 However, you can tell that she desires the pastry so much that her mouth is watering... what an angel.
The little angel stole this episode definitely. Welcoming, confident and thoughtful to express her own opinions on food. My heart just melted. Wish her all the best!
FYI, since the girl was talking about her uncle manning a stall, chances are it's actually her cousin, not brother. A lot of Chinese people use a sibling title to refer to their cousins without the 表 or 堂 prefix which makes the word into cousin, especially after only children has been the norm (and in many ways still is) for so many years. I think the prefix is also getting less popular because people don't see it necessary anymore to distinguish between cousins who share a family name vs. those who do not, which is what those prefixes are. A lot of people grew up addressing their cousins as Older Sister/Brother or as [name] Older Sister/Brother. Many kids don't even know what type of cousin a given cousin is. So in this situation, my guess is that the 哥 (older brother) she talks about is actually her 表哥 (older male cousin who does not share a name), since the term she used for her uncle is the word for the husband of her mother's eldest sister. Normally if someone mentions their sibling and you care about whether it's a sibling or cousin, you would ask if they're a bio sibling, and they will specify if it's their actual sibling or an aunt or uncle's child.
The kid should get a gig as a tour guide. She certainly has the aptitude for it. That youtiao was doing its best impression of a French baguette, real lady pleaser. Lol
@@fatdoi003 it's a bit complicated but basically, if you rise and go to bed based on natural circadian rhythm you might naturally wake up at that time. This is because entire China uses Beijing time (to avoid communication issues) when in reality all the other cities on that longitude might be using different zones. Changchun using Beijing time is like America Midwest using New York time. If we time zone it correctly, it is at the same time as the 2 Koreas and Philippines Manila
I noticed that your Chinese subtitle is excellent. It’s authentic and accurate, with the right use of local dialect such as “浇头” for the noodle topping. As someone born in Beijing, grew up in the States and worked as a professional interpreter, I am impressed.
Traveling to China seems like a dream come true for any lover of food. I can't eat peanuts or their oil, so it could be challenging, but if nothing else, the produce looks AMAZING (and I could happily live off of fruit, vegetables, wheat gluten, noodles, chili oil, garlic, ginger, and rice for a long, long time). Enjoy the peanutty goodness and street food, for those of us who can't! 💜
Amy is such a gem. Unpretentious, open-minded, adventurous, friendly, not judgmental and condescending at all , a big contrast to a lot of expats. Derk is so lucky to have you! Thanks for the amazing videos
That morning market looks so cool!!! The food seems amazing but more importantly, the people there were so nice! that little angel girl was literally the cherry on the cake! Nice to see Derk too, bringing his concise yet highly professional remark as our Germany sausage connoisseur: "approved" LOL Thanks for another amazing video!!
it's easy to believe when you said the foods are delicious, it's always the long queue and how busy are the vendors that gives it away. And the little girl is a natural, take her in as your apprentice🤣
This episode is so sweet! Amy brought Changchun red sausage to her German boyfriend! After overwhelmingly peppery dumplings, clinging to throat octopus, metallic p fish sashimi, and chopsticks cut out of flat sheet metal, Amy left Korean food room.
OH My GAWD!!! Those blueberries are huge!!! The ones we get here are so tiny and they come in these small containers and cost way too much. Those strawberries look so good too. Dammit gave me a craving now.
I had that big youtiao before in BJ 20 years ago on my 1st trip to china, 4 of us on freezing December morning at a small hutong eatery near BJ university we had 2 huge youtiao and 2 huge youbing and 5 bowls of soybean milk, I remember it cost 38 rmb, amazing the prices still about the same today.
What an interesting market. That young girl was so bright and confident ! I think Derk at the end was a bit distrustful of that sausage and wanted you to try it first.
I could taste the tofu brain and youtiao through the screen! I grew up in Dongbei and now reside in Sydney. Your video surely brought back a lot of memories. Thank you, Amy!💖
Dongbei is known for their sausages (or 红肠) because of the Russian/Lithuanian/Polish influence it received back in the past, so yes it would taste like a kielbasa
Really impressive to see the people you questioned were so passionnate in their response and knowledgeable . Not to mention very friendly . @8:34 Insider's tip from the little girl - night market is better ( lol ) @7:14 same little kid rescued Amy with a napkin
Hi Amy👋🏻 This market is so cool!😎 I’m not an early bird, but I’d love to visit this place someday and try that youtiao and tofu brain…. Looks soooo good!👍🏻😄
I so miss Changchun and these familiar foods. People are still so down to earth awsome as before. Very grateful to experience Changchun from your lens.
for three and half years in Syd, been watching your videos all the time, and meanwhile eating the food which makes it so blend. In 10 hours I am finally back home and go try the restaurant you have been too!!!!!! Back to Home!!!!!
Such a great video once again Amy! I look forward to these every week. I feel like I've learnt so much about Chinese culture through you and I'm hoping to be able to visit China one day!
The best time to have an early breakfast. Wow! Every food are huge, especially the youtiao (油條) (in Hong Kong, we also called it, 油炸鬼), I think I could have it bit by bit.
That cute little angel. How adorable! I think she has a future in performing arts. With such a sumptuous breakfast, you probably skipped your lunch that day.
Yeah, dongbei is few places in China where they sell youtiao by weight rather than piece.... You burn a lot of calories in the cold so us people from dongbei eat a lot.
Thank you for showing Dongbei morning market! One of my favorite things about home, buying youdiao, sesame paste and fresh veggies. This makes me miss home so much
I literally thought those blueberries at 13:46 were the size of a baseball at first. Then I realized it was an up close shot of them on a table once I saw the payment QR code on the side.
In Singapore n Malaysia, it's common to eat youtiao with black coffee. Usually you dip the youtiao bit by bit into the hot coffee n eat it. The other way is dip it into the hot claypot of bak-kut-teh and eat it.
Absolute YUM and you personify what our relationship can be with the Chinese people, somehow we have come off the rails. This needs to end. My thanks and admiration for what you do to bridge the sad current gap.
This video is so difficult to watch on an empty stomach lol. The egg and dough thingy, plus the tofu soup and youtiao looked especially amazing. I visited China a few years ago and regret not trying more food when I was there.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful Dongbei Morning Market experience with us - the little girl is super cute and heartwarming!🥰 The giant youtiao and the berries look amazing!🤩
The blueberries are enormous compared to the ones you get in Western supermarkets which are sold in small punnets, expensive, and tend to be more sour than sweet.
I love the open markets! The girl is so sweet, is seldom to see a Chinese kids so articulated. Still don't like the use of plastic for hot food like soup. Food and fruits looking good, amazing.
I just went to changchun thrice in the last 2 weeks. It is a really HUGE city and the traffic is massive., and finding parking is a nightmare. i still prefer the smaller cities. Anyway, the sun comes up at around 4.30am and going to the market at 6 is not really too early.
Amazing Video as always! For me, the Price for berries in China (and Australia too, apparently) are really interesting to see! Over here in the EU, buying 500g of Blueberries is like... 3€? They have these buckets kinda things. When they are in season, you get higher quality in smaller amounts (125g usually), but still, around 2€? And berries are considered expensive, because our locally-grown apples or pears are at 2€ per kilogram. (Disclaimer: I am a student and don't shop at the nice store, just at ALDI). On the other hand, prepared food is so much cheaper over in China, where a ready-made meal will cost you 8RMB, while fresh produce is four times as much! Here in EU, it would be the other way around - 2€ for berries, at least 9€ for Noodles! Really love to see these differences in culture and economy and learn about the world

有机会你回北京以后来旁边城市天津 吃一下原产地 天津煎饼果子 豆腐脑 锅巴菜（附加建议吃老城里四姐锅巴菜豆腐脑，我个人认为最好吃） 天津人最注重吃早点。我们天津人一谈到别的地方的煎饼果子就咬牙切齿的。把煎饼果子里夹了乱七八糟的。😂😂😂

你中文说得很好。
我在东北生活那么久也没找到一个美女老婆. 怎么你一去就见到了? 你在忽悠吧?
There’s a NEW variant in China now, good luck 🍀
That little girl!! So animated, so cute, so friendly! My heart melted
Yes, she's sweet and sociable.
Good communicator!
Bless her! ❤️🙏
holy that little girl is so precious
She definitely is!!!
Such a nice young tour guide ! Lol most honest food critic being a kid

Look at her eyes, so clear and beautiful, such a smart and adorable girl
Aha, she so sweet and articulate!! ❤️💖
That girl is so adorable. Sorry, Amy, but she stole this episode. ❤
I agree!!!
Probably got to take her for the night market in another episode
Being a Shnaghaines and your video makes me want to visit 东北. Btw, that girl is so sweet!
The little angel stole this episode definitely. Welcoming, confident and thoughtful to express her own opinions on food. My heart just melted. Wish her all the best!
That kid is too freaking cute! Best co-hostess ever!
I would like to thank the puppy and the brother for gifting us the opportunity to see such a adorable angel, she was so lovely.

As I get older, morning markets actually make a lot more sense than night markets 😂
those girls lining up can't be more than 20 y/o??
i'm 25 and i wholeheartedly agree haha
@@fatdoi003 Changchun might be one hour ahead of Beijing time if local time zone is used.

Great selection of breakfast, great interaction with the market’s young ambassador and great low prices! :D
7:28 omg she is soooooo cute 🥰
You made me cry! I absolutely LOVE dipping youtiao in my toufu flower (you guessed it, it's another form of toufu "brains") for a brekkie!
It was sooooo delicious!
In Singapore, we dip the Yutiao in our black coffee.
Awww that lassie is adorable and sweet ~ smart kid ! your contents never disappoints , keep up with the good work👍🏻❤️❤️ greetings from Hong Kong 🇨🇳🇭🇰
Amy‘s Chinese is so good now and it gets better and better. just look how she communicate smoothly with the locals.💯
I think Amy found a new cohost whenever she goes to Dongbei. She was adorable ☺️
what a lovely kid
That little girl is so endearing and such a brilliant tour guide! Would love to see a whole vlog with her, she's a natural youtuber!
That morning market looks so cool!!! The food seems amazing but more importantly, the people there were so nice! that little angel girl was literally the cherry on the cake!

Chiiiiina！❤
@@wissme7o6050❤️
my Australian born children called them "dog bones" when they first saw one (in Sydney)
@@Woodland26 😄that was a cute name for youtiao
That young girl was the sweetest. Oh my goodness 💟
The little girl is an angel ❤
Blondie Amy is deep into Chinese culture, I rediscover things that I didn't know before by watching your videos.
I miss all the good food in China, especially breakfast that small vendors sell in the morning.
Amy is always the perfect remedy when I'm overloading from too much geopolitics and battling China haters online.

You guys are adorable. I enjoy watching your vlogs and food experiences in China. What an amazing country and culture! Thanks for sharing ❤
That girl is so sweet and adorable.
That little girl was so cute & friendly!! :D
The kid is soooooo cute you really need to consider to include her in your future food blog.
Dongbei is known for their sausages (or 红肠) because of the Russian/Lithuanian/Polish influence it received back in the past, so yes it would taste like a kielbasa
That little girl is straight out of an anime show!!! So kyuuteee!!! Amy and that little girl go on food adventures to the night market episode soon?!
What an awesome interaction with a local girl.
Really impressive to see the people you questioned were so passionnate in their response and knowledgeable . Not to mention very friendly .
@8:34 Insider's tip from the little girl - night market is better ( lol )
@7:14 same little kid rescued Amy with a napkin
yup, same kid :P
Hi Amy👋🏻 This market is so cool!😎 I’m not an early bird, but I’d love to visit this place someday and try that youtiao and tofu brain…. Looks soooo good!👍🏻😄
That Youtiao looks so satisfying! Here in Brisbane, I can only find Youtiao in the frozen food section of the Asian supermarket .
I so miss Changchun and these familiar foods. People are still so down to earth awsome as before. Very grateful to experience Changchun from your lens.
that lil girl is so precious🥹
I loved this video. The little girl should be your cohost! Always nice to hear from Derk too.
Northeastern people in China are so kind. It is so lively living in DongBei. The food there is absolutely delicious.
for three and half years in Syd, been watching your videos all the time, and meanwhile eating the food which makes it so blend. In 10 hours I am finally back home and go try the restaurant you have been too!!!!!! Back to Home!!!!!

I can feel the cool morning from your video, all fantastic food and warm hearted people! Great market, lovely life! I love this kind of market!
Oh, that little girl you met in the market is very pretty and lovely 😊
The little girl was well-spoken.
eloquent
The best time to have an early breakfast.
Wow! Every food are huge, especially the youtiao (油條) (in Hong Kong, we also called it, 油炸鬼), I think I could have it bit by bit.

"Really Bloody Good!", Amy channelled her inner Aussie right there.
Damn. I'm eating my meager breakfast while seeing this and the foods you have there are so somuch better.

i really like your videos. you always look so happy and your video always make me feel hungry
Holy cow, look at those tanks of baijiu!!! That's too many happy hours 😀
感謝妳將世界帶到了我的眼前，讓我也能體會片刻的樸實幸福 !

Go say it to your friend now lol
@@AmelieZh 嘎嘎的😂

I m impressed by the level of hygiene observed by most of the vendors in this setting, gloves, mask and hair nets seemed pretty standard.

welcome to Dongbei, you make me miss home so much.. i am going home in Jan, you should come to Shenyang again. Lover from Aussie land Sydney !
Many people go to Tianjin for breakfast recently，very popular. You can try it next time when you come back to Beijing.
That little angle was definitely the highlight of the vlog! How could she be so nature in front of the camera at that age!!!
A future Best Actress winner 🏆 ? 😊
Absolute YUM and you personify what our relationship can be with the Chinese people, somehow we have come off the rails. This needs to end. My thanks and admiration for what you do to bridge the sad current gap.
The night market sounds great! We need a full episode of the little girl showing you around that!
Ahhhhh I miss the Dongbei Morning Market soooo much! So many good stuff and so affordable
The little girl at the market is so cute!
Amy, always managed to find various ways to make me jealous!!! I wanna try all the foods you had
After watching this episode, the morning market is going on the bucket list for my trip to the motherland this fall
These people are so friendly. Look at all those beautiful smiles that greeted you :)
This video is so difficult to watch on an empty stomach lol. The egg and dough thingy, plus the tofu soup and youtiao looked especially amazing. I visited China a few years ago and regret not trying more food when I was there.

Amy honestly I am looking forward to your new youtube post every single day!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful Dongbei Morning Market experience with us - the little girl is super cute and heartwarming!🥰 The giant youtiao and the berries look amazing!🤩
little girl is so adorable! people from dongbei(manchuria) are generally tall and good looking.
Your videos are always really enjoyable and informative but this has to be one of my favourites. I love your enthusiasm! 😊
The blueberries are enormous compared to the ones you get in Western supermarkets which are sold in small punnets, expensive, and tend to be more sour than sweet.
That certainly looked like an interesting experience, and I loved your little guide!
I love the open markets! The girl is so sweet, is seldom to see a Chinese kids so articulated. Still don't like the use of plastic for hot food like soup. Food and fruits looking good, amazing.
Seldom?
Those bags are all high-temperature resistant food bags, so it is more hygienic for everyone to use different bowls.
You CANNOT let this little girl go like that, ask the uncle if she can be featured in more videos she has a gift !
Whoever added the captions to this video did a marvellous job. Captured the essence of Dongbejhua 😄😄
I just went to changchun thrice in the last 2 weeks. It is a really HUGE city and the traffic is massive., and finding parking is a nightmare. i still prefer the smaller cities. Anyway, the sun comes up at around 4.30am and going to the market at 6 is not really too early.
This was actually so therapeutic for me to watch and I wish I could like this video more than once! Now I really want to go to Dong Bei 😂
Amazing Video as always! For me, the Price for berries in China (and Australia too, apparently) are really interesting to see!
