i marvel at the elegance of the Northern Chinese Banquet. So elegant, this 9 course feast with the range of delectable sauces, balance of flavors and textures. truly fit for an Emperor and Empress...
Seriously? Dude, this is from the late 80's early 90's, and Yan is probably in his late 40's ... Idk, it is hard to tell, either way he was growing up in the 40's at least, so that is far before the globalization we see now.
nowadays, most of the "shark" fin soup is using gelatin noodles or konjac noodles as substitute(as the taste doesn't come from the fin itself at all, except its fishiness) so no more cruel fin-cutting process happen unless you can afford a huge premium like him having his manchurian-han banquet trip
Don't view the past through the lens of the present, view it in the context of the time period in which it existed. Presentism is a bad way of seeing the world.

Thank you!❣️
What a talent she is. I’m truly impressed.
Martin was a pioneer for celebrity Asian chefs.

Chinese people don't eat rice as much as Southeast Asians do.
That music during the banquet scene is a banger!

If Yan can cook it so can you.
this episode needed to be longer
I couldnt sit in the audience for long not wanting to eat what he is making, that would be awesome dinner and a show🍛🍤🦀🥗🥠
when TLC showed this [in reruns] the ending credits were edited to just a blue screen
Martin Yan really looks like Stephen Yan. They're not even relatives! Aren't they?
No, Stephen is from Hong Kong and Martin is from Guangzhou
Martins mom sent him to Hong Kong to learn cooking.
Elohim sheli. Ani chole bebeit hacolim ad sheni.
Potatoes are very common in China… maybe not in Martin’s day; maybe not in his village. But don’t generalise

Ani rotze habaita abba yan
i hope she did not get anything on that beautiful silk blouse ! making me nervous watching the episode !
Sorry Yan.. you lost me at shark fin soup. It's pretty cruel what they do to get those shark fins.
That was 1988.
