Although we did not have this dish, the combination of veggies and chicken in a tasty sauce brings back fond memories of our time in Karamay. There was one dish (whose name escapes me) with potatoes, onion, carrots, peppers, garlic served in bowl of hot oil with a lump of waxy fuel underneath. It was brought to the table, the wax was lit, and the dish got hotter as you ate it. Mmmm...beautiful! Thanks again, Josh. Yeah-no chicken feet for me!
The point is to eat the texture, just like pig's ear, the crunchy cartilage. Dim Sum phoenix claws are also marinated with a special sauce, so you also eat the taste. You should try it ;)
The POINT of eating chicken foot is sucking the juice and flavor out of the soft skin, which is "supposedly good" for your own skin. It's NOT about eating meat because there isn't any.
Another awesome video. I once ordered a plate full of chicken feet at random from a chinese language menu... had to send it back ;) I was new to China!
Probably my favorite dish in China, but I never been out west and here in Guangzhou, they always make it with star anise. Nice video. I noticed a metal detector on your way out of the restaurant.
Hi Josh. Is the dish Muslim-friendly? I have small stomach; do restaurants there allow a few people, say 4, to share one plate? One-to-one, there would be leftovers and wastage.
Yes, it is halal! The dish is a Muslim dish so most any restaurant where you eat it is halal. Also, as far as sharing goes, it's perfectly normal to share a dish between many people. In fact, it was a bit weird for me to eat a plate by myself ;)
Hello Josh, Great video! I had this dish in China but not in Xinjiang, good dish but I did not like the foot and the head. Loved the Beef noodles in China, it is a wholesome dish, is it available in Xinjiang?
Recently Dapanji is popular in china but other province in china cant cook good and tasty like there in xinjiang and it is not hui people's invention but it is xinjiangs hui peoples invention
Agreed! I've eaten DaPanJi elsewhere in China and it's just not the same. Also, I believe you are right - the birthplace of DaPanJi (at least what I've been told) is here in Xinjiang. Thanks for the comment!
Because, I'm fussy what I put in my stomach. I have experienced food poisoning too many times in my Asian travels. Korea, China, Japan. Even got food poisoning from my cooking when I lived in Tokyo. I'm careful about keeping all the cooking utensils clean etc., but something slipped through. So, nowadays, I stick with what I know. I never eat KFC, except in Thailand. Its fantastic there . In Bangkok, at the Seacon Square shopping centre.. Amazing . No chicken feet though :-)
I don’t understand why you don’t have more subscribers. This channel is amazing!
Ha! I'm happy with those who are willing to enjoy the videos. Thanks for the encouragement, though 😂

Kvas is a traditional Slavic(ukranian,russian and others) drink
good stuff! There's a Xinjiang restaurant here in Sydney that i usually go. Da pan ji is always a favourite
Wow...I'll have to check out that restaurant next time I'm in Sydney. I wonder how the DaPanJi compares?!
Nice video!! Love it, love da pan ji, my mouth is watering the whole time. And it is almost midnight now...
Haha! Thanks for taking the time to comment...now get some good sleep ;)
My favourite Xinjiang food ❤️
One of my favorites too!
Looks yummy, and healthy, too!
Ha! I don't know about healthy for sure, but it's definitely tasty ;)
I want DaPanJi! NOW!
YES! Ha :) Have you had it before, Sally?
i want it too

Ha! So glad it brings back good memories for you, Bob. I'm not sure what dish you're referring to in Karamay but it does sound delicious :)
Chickens feet cooked in the south are so delicious! Try it in Hong Kong or Guangdong. I love it! ( kiwi here )
Yea...I think I'll pass ;)
Chicken feet is good. One of my favorite Cantonese Dim Sum is chicken feet, commonly referred to as phoenix claw.
Ha! I just don't get the whole chicken foot thing. It seems like there's NO POINT! :-)

It's funny to see you eating alone Josh!
Another awesome video. I once ordered a plate full of chicken feet at random from a chinese language menu... had to send it back ;) I was new to China!
Ha! Yea, not for the faint of heart. :)
Nice video. Never had that dish, would ask cook with out feet, head, lower wing, ..
Glad you enjoyed it :)
I was very interested , thumb-up
Probably my favorite dish in China, but I never been out west and here in Guangzhou, they always make it with star anise. Nice video. I noticed a metal detector on your way out of the restaurant.
Yea, we have metal detectors in every restaurant, grocery store and small hole-in-the-wall nowadays. It's annoying but just part of life now.
大盘鸡是回族的特色的饭吗? (By the way, what a delicious video!)
Not Hui, Uighur, however it was most likely created by a cook from sichuan or Hunan living in Xinjiang.
Love it! Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure! I'm glad you guys enjoy the videos. Always an encouragement :)
Ok so it's 12°C, cold and rainy. We were going to have pho for dinner, looks like it'll be dapanji!! 👌👌👌😉😉😉
Haha! Awesome :)
What happened to the live Q & A a couple of days ago ?
It had to be cancelled due to technical difficulties. I'm trying to reschedule!

You are becoming a local Chinese, Josh! Great job. We need the address of this restaurant, please.
Ha! I wouldn't go that far, but I feel blessed having lived here so long. The 第一盘 that I visited in this video is on 南湖北路70号 (70 Nanhu Beilu).
大盘鸡是四川菜 下乡的时候穿过去的
大盘鸡本来是回族的特菜，四川有没有一大群回族人口吗？
Hello Josh,
Great video!

Loved the Beef noodles in China, it is a wholesome dish, is it available in Xinjiang?
Hi Antony! I agree - the head and feet aren't my favorite, but everything else is awesome :)
Yes, you can find LOTS of beef noodles out here!
为什么不开空调呢？
hey, we would eat this! And lots of Kavas.....
I have no doubt that you would ;) I personally had two glasses of Kavas!! Haha.
Recently Dapanji is popular in china but other province in china cant cook good and tasty like there in xinjiang and it is not hui people's invention but it is xinjiangs hui peoples invention

Yum!
It is delicious!
As a vegetarian I guess I'll just eat the potato and green peppers hahahah LoL
Haha! Yea, I guess that would work. Don't forget the good bread and noodles at the end!
Luxury to be in that big VIP room by urself
Ha! I arrived early so that I knew the room would be empty. It's easier to film in your own room ;)
Uyghur big plate chicken and East Turkestan
卡瓦斯是俄罗斯的格瓦斯吗？
应该差不多，我不确定因为我没喝过俄罗斯的格瓦斯。
The proper way to eat it is with noodles
Delicious :)
😢🤲
Hui people called in Russia and Central Asia DUNGANS, 'cause the word Hui on Russian mean a very bad word
Yes, they used to be called Dungans in China as well, but they've switched over to calling them Hui for some reason.

I m afraid someday u convert to uygur Muslim dude, feel how much u like xinjiang
Liking Xinjiang...yes. Converting to Islam...no can do.
Eat ..... definitely not :-)
Really?! Why not, Peter? You have me curious ;)

Chicken feet ......Not on my bucket list, I'm afraid ...
