I studied nihongo for a few years but later in life found a Chinese girl studying in Sweden yesterday we celebrated 9 year wedding anniversary. I do a bit of Chinese studies everyday for 560+ days already with Duolingo but my pronunciation is not good, but then the other day my wife made some new dish she wanted me to taste, and I said ooh is that Bingfen?? She was chocked, how did I know that?? Do I have a second Chinese girlfriend??? So refereed to your video from Chongqing, so that made my day I surprised her with something Chinese way out of her expectation. So just used your referral link to get the lifetime membership, I just hope my pronunciations will be as good as our kids that speak fluent mandarin :)
Stay strong in Beijing soon the lock down will be over!
@@JoelBergmark aw that is so great! ur story is very sweet and i wish ur fam and u all the best and im sure your pronounciation will improve quickly with the help of the program and your family members
That old bald guy wearing golden necklace eating noodle looks like my uncle.... my uncle went to jail for bought 1 gram coke (cocaine) and get 2 years sentence... and it is a true story. But, fortunately, he is not my uncle.
hey, this Man Tou is made by hands, not by machine, so it tastes a bit 嚼劲 and sponge， those made by machine taste much more soft like cotton. its why cost more. 😁
The hummus seller was really keen on practicing his english.
Seeing Shushu and Ayi always warms my heart! Reminds me of the people who have become my family away from home in China ❤️

I really enjoyed the little history lesson about the bridge, very interesting! And the view was wonderful 🥰 Keep up the good work, Blondie!
Ps: it's nice to see your neighbors again!
Yes, China has a long recorded history, this little history about the bridge is actually a spoon of water from the sea of the history of China.
🎵Neighbours, everybody needs good neighbours. With a little understanding you could find the perfect plan.
Neighbours, should be there for one another. That’s when good neighbours become good friends🎵
So true from your recent videos! :D
Her neighbors are so sweet. Good people.
Wow, Amy, you have always surprised me with so much knowledge about China. The reason the Chinese built great channel to transport goods from South of China to Beijing is really fascinating. Not only do I learn about Chinese cuisine, I also learn some interesting history about China. Thanks you!
What a blessing to expose yourself to such lovely neighbors, lucky u. Stay safe and healthy there in Beijing. ❤️
egg and tomatoes is also a dish here in italy. it's fun to see that all over the world people in the end always eat the same things
We are not all that different from each other. If only the media would show how much we have in common rather than painting a picture of how different we are, the world might have less wars and paranoia. Food is a great starting place, who doesn't like good food?
I was about to write that. My mom used to make me this dish when I was a kid. I’m from Turin.
@@Veronica_Boer I am also from Piemonte, my grandma used to make “tomata e ovi” for me back in Italy (just tomato sauce mixed with scrambled eggs and Grana). Funnily enough, I’ve never heard of friends cooking it the same way outside of our home region.
it could be a western thing, cuz i dont think tomato existed in ancient China. that's why the Chinese name for it is “xi hong shi“ translates to western red persimmon
Imagine eggs and tomatos with pasta or a steak/chop!
I know I’m late but your neighbours are literally so kind!!
As a person born and live in Beijing for 27 years, I even don’t know the history of Wanning bridge!!! Really appreciate your introduction!❤️
You make an ordinary day seem anything but ordinary. I love the idea of you trying different snacks for your picnic and parking yourself on a bench and enjoying these little treasures. Your neighbors are lovely and you are a warm and friendly hostess. Another video that left me smiling. Thank you❤️
Tried biang biang noodles and roujamo in Sydney China Town yesterday as you suggested them in a previous video. Loved it!! Thanks for your videos :)
(UNSW alumni here too!) x
lol，一定要尝试一下煎饼果子
Amy , your neighbors are very kind and supportive.
I have confidence in you that with a proper steamer and a pastry cutter you can make a tasty mantou - a savory one and a dessert one with either cinnamon and butter or with dried fruit and nuts.
Can never go wrong with egg and tomato stirfry.
Amy, as always, is lovely. 💯💯💯She makes our day and we learn so much from her about China, Beijing and all the places, things about China. Regarding the food, it's kinda envious to see her eat such a variety of delicious food! 🍜🍚😋🍷😋🍷😋🍷🥟🥠
Never would've thought of Sichuan hummus! Sounds like a great combo!
Over the years of tasting and eating just about any food has given you an edge in creating dishes right out of nowhere.
Which is a good thing I guess.
It's an adventure in your life which we dream of.
Amy, I absolutely love your positive energy!
Hummus with the "mantou" was a perfect match. Good job!
It’s man toe
Interesting
@@doug774 aqua man!
@@CupContender it’s mantou
@@jy.395 man toe
I can always rely on you to make me hungry 😂 Thanks for sharing!
I think we need amy cooking class, I want to taste the eggplant dish 🤤
Amy speaks chinese to hummus guy but he's also gonna practice his english when opportunity presents
i missed your neighbours! they are so nice!
love the vibe, your cooking and your neighbours - keepit up
Would love to see you cook something Western for your neighbours to try out!
You have such a nice friendship with your neighbours! Well done on the cooking. It looked delicious!
I want to see your neighbors react to non-Chinese food!
我们中国人也爱吃汉堡包炸鸡，还有披萨，面包也爱吃，但是接受不了把面包当主食。还有奶酪和咖喱我们也吃，但是不太习惯。
@@arthurxanthe2567 吃不吃瓜卡牟雷？
@@onlywei 不知道你说的是什么
@@onlywei 原来你说的是牛油果制作的东西。很少吃。
@@arthurxanthe2567 对吧。所以我想看她邻居吃这种东西的反应。
Such a lovely neighbour you have over there. I guess there always many kinds people all over the world. It's just the politicians that make a country looks bad.
What a productive day and well-done on the dinner! Looks delicious!
You are such a masterchef🦄 When my mom was pregnant, she enjoyed Mantou because she found other dishes too greasy. So I was enjoying Mantou as well in her stomach as a baby 😊Mantou is such a sweet hommie flavour and it brought me back my babyhood memories, babies have no memories though 😂 Anyway, warm greetings from Berlin🇩🇪 and the little Mediterranean island Cyprus 🇨🇾🏝️
Love your chanel and you are absolutely an amazing RUclipsr🦄 Thanks for sharing👍🏻
How did you mom find Mantou in Germany?
Is she Chinese made some by herself?
Hey Amy! Thanks so much for filming this lovely vlog! You just made my day cuz I was soooo bored at home for the past 2 weeks while being sick and isolating at home…😷 love to see more videos soon! All the food you made and purchased looked so delicious!🤗🍆🍅🥒🍳🍜🍷🥟🥖 Take care!!🙋🏻♀️
I am watching this while eating my cup noodles.
So envious.
So glad to see you are so happy again and your energy has come back during the pandemic. Enjoy everyday there!
What I miss most is the deep fried Mantou in my college cafeteria.
Thanks for sharing and showing us a glimpse of everyday life of Chinese. Your neighbors are lovely!
love your youtube nickname
that's exactly how I steam stuff without a proper steamer xD
This is such an interesting and warming video, all the food looks good and you become such a good cook now❤
I love your neighbors! They are so lovely.
作为北方人的我可以说，虽然馒头不是主角，但是馒头可夹万物，以前人们不在饭点时饿了的话就会吃一个来垫垫肚子
Wore my hair like that in the late 1970s when I was about 9!! Looks very cute on you 😋😋
I lived in Beijing for 16 years, and you have taught me something new today about the place. Thank you!
Highly refreshing take on daily life in Beijing.
Sometimes I just crave a plain mantou. So satisfying to eat. It's like freshly baked bread. You're happy to eat it while it's still steaming hot. My guilty pleasure is fried mantou with sweetened condensed milk. Can't go wrong with fried food.
I love grilled mantou. The slight charred/browned surface gives an extra crispiness and a smoky flavor, so good
Neighbors look super nice!! So cute
Nice!!! Thanks for sharing some of Beijing history and your first home made meal for your neighbors.👍😁
Hi，Amy，thanks for this lovely new video！beautiful city view，beautiful you，and tasty food make the city of covid zero controlling looks not that bad！
I cracked up with the "nice and tasty garbed with a dumpling" reference haha,, golden lol at 4:30
Life is so good in Beijing.
actually I'm trying to learn some English through your videos,your accurate and clear pronunciation combined with Chinese and English subtitle is quite helpful for me,and the content of your videos is something I'm familiar with and interested in,so it's also very enjoyable .thanks for your excellent videos.
i read and listen a lot when learn English but writing and speaking are my weakness, forgive my bad expression
I‘ve been waiting for this for days!! Thanks for your lovely video Amy!!
You're always so bubbly! making your videos very fun to watch :) Love your neighbors too!! they're such a lovely cute couple.
My wife's from Kunming and we marinate our cucumber in soysauce, garlic and Lao Gan Ma for at least 6 hours (in the fridge). It makes the taste of the cucumber so much better. I hope we'll be able to go back to China next year when all restrictiions are lifted.
We miss Kunming teribly.
Maybe you could do a video on School Nr 1 in Kunming that, according to the central state exams had been the best school in China for the past 10-15 years. One of the administrative people there once told me they kept the number of students "low" to keep the high quality. When I asked what she considered to be a low number of students, it turned out that the two campusses together hold more than 1200 students! My wife is an alumni of that school and both she and her late father used to be teachers there.
Plus there is so much more to see in Kunming and the rest of Yunnan!
I see you know a lot about Chinese traditional food !
I’ve been waiting for this video since Tuesday!
That’s so amazing you cooked a wonderful dinner for your neighbours. God Bless you Amy.🙏💜
I would be happy to be YOUR lovely neighbor. Glad to see you are getting along with your neighbors very well!
Great Post loved the informative and little street tour with history lesson thrown in around the river making tea for your neighbours was nice show of hospitality.
You are a great foodie fan and reviewer..Fantastic editing skills..Nice one Amy ⭐⭐⭐🤗
Love your neighbors! Hope you don’t get locked down. Keep the great videos coming!
Your video make me smile from beginning to the end! You are so lovely!
Love your new hair "style", make you look much younger and vibrant!
8:09 that kid yelling "美国人" LMAOOOO I literally had the same experience when i went to beijing 💀
I love that you and your neighbors have such a good relationship. It's nice to have people around you like that, especially when you're far away from family. Also, thanks for the resetta stone discount, I went ahead and grabbed it to help with my Chinese! :)
Blondie, we have curry dumplings here in the Philippines. We use them for hotpots. They are usually imported from Taiwan.
Yooo those dumplings looks freakin amazing and awesome idea it’s like an Indian dumpling and sichuan hummus ugh it’s not even 9 and this is making me hungry. Also I love when you include the history of the areas you visit 💕
My Beijing wife didn’t know that interesting info on the bridge. Keep up your wonderful postings. We love them!
just make me smile and occasionally lol along this video as always..good job!!
Thanks for the history lesson about the bridge! Always fascinating to know the history behind any architecture.
It's so great your neighbours and are welcoming
Never a dull moment watching your interesting video. Bravo Blondie. Will keep following your channel.👍😁
Hats off to you for sharing so much history about Beijing.
Loved the history tidbit! Please include more of these in your videos!
Hey Amy, love your neighbours, both 叔叔and 阿姨 are the very 地道的decent 北京人, and your Chinese accent starting to have Beijing tone now, I always think the Beijing dialect is the coolest.
I love your channel, love your contents, love your positivity, love your family too..have been following you before the C-19 started…Keep it up, your channel takes us to the places/food that we are longing to go and enjoy; ohhhh, how I miss home, haven’t been back for 2+ years due to C-19. Take Care！
Pleasantly surprised by that short segment about Wanning Bridge that came seemingly out of nowhere! Best little nugget of info I learned this week. 😊 I always walk past and just wonder "what an old looking stone bridge..."
分享一个馒头的做法：把馒头切成条，鸡蛋打匀，馒头裹上鸡蛋后下锅炒，油不要放太多，炒的过程中加一些葱花。小时候生病我妈经常给我做，现在吃不到馒头了，很怀念。
就像英国人喜欢的蘸鸡蛋液后轻炸的面包片但没加葱花。英语叫 French Toast 或 Eggy Bread.
馒头很容易做吧。不会做饭的还可以买个搅拌机或者面包机做。
i love that the hummus guy who wanted to use english with you. he wants the opportunity to practice english much respect!!!!
what a lovely video!
Love these vids!!
I have been following you for a lomg time and I find that your videos are so refreshing and honest, if you are not okay with someting you say it not in a negative way. Not everyone likes everything.
Your cooking skill is amazing!
No worries on lockdown...Loved this video so creative!
Love all ur vids. Keep up the good work. U have opened me to teying new things. Step 1 is sichuan peppercorn.
I still remember the first time I traveled to BJ in '82. We, 4 blokes, didn't have those "food tickets" or whatever it was called. We probably paid a lot more than the locals for food. Later on one of us got some of those tickets from a relative. We only then found out that staple food was sold by weight, instead of by item number. Long gone were those days.

Would be nice if I could have a tea or coffee with you listening to those fading but stirring memories.
was in beijing recently, for the first time. the trip helps put some context into your beijing videos esp the houhai and gulou hutong areas
I found your channel by accident and grew in love with it ever since, your video has none of the political shenanigans, it also doesn't just show the wonders and achievements (aka the best part of China), it shows us the real China and Chinese life down to earth, and your video is always full of joy, it put a smile on my face every time I watch it. I can see why your channel has grown more and more popular, keep up the great work!
so enjoyed when seeing you eating that food
That was a one day delay in posting weekly video, Amy. I was wondering if you were doing okay yesterday but I was finally relieved when I saw your weekly video posted today. Good work and take care Amy.
It is heartwarming to cook food for your neighbors in Beijing, Miss Amy, having a better time to get to know each other well.
Enjoy watching you enjoy life.
Amy nailed it as usual! Awesome!
Very nice of you to cook for your neighbours.
Wow! Beijing seem so clean and beautiful now, really made me want you visit again. I am am hoping that our whole family can go there for a few months to take in the culture and let my kids learn the language.
The eggplant dish looks extremely delicious! I'll have to search through your content to see if you have a video where you make it because I really want to taste it~
Me too!

I have been to Shicha Haifor so many times but I never bothered to find out more about its history. NowI know! Thanks so much for sharing!
I love your channel and your bubbly personality :) Welcome to Beijing! I would say it is my hometown where I haven’t been for 7 years after moving to the U.S. Thanks for helping me know what’s going on there :P
your neighbooors are soooo sweet 😭Love seeming them in your videos ☺
the dishes you made look really good!
lovely picnic video!
Hi Blondie...greetings from Singapore. Looks like you have become a versatile cook.
Just a new experience cooking for your neighbour. 😍🥰☺️
