Smart move on the Boss's part to come eat with you. Great marketing move on his part. You did great Amy as always. You have really developed into an international top class professional foodie. Your presentation, style and content is excellent. Extremely well presented and captivating!
Love your videos! I am adopted from China and live in the US. Watching your videos has helped me learn so much about Chinese culture. It would be so cool if you vlogged traveling to Shangrao in Jiangxi province sometime! I would love to see the food from there
As a fellow adopted Chinese person, the other replies aren't useful but I totally agree. I love Amy's videos and the moment that I can go to explore China, it will be really hard for me to decide where to go first
I am Chinese and I only been living in Australia for less than 10 years. I would say every Chinese viewer doesn't go to that many places, know different local cultures and try all those local food themselves. Watch and enjoy :)
Meeting friendly people during the trip will make the trip more interesting and beautiful❤ There is an old saying in China. 有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎？It means Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?
Great that you managed to spend so much time in Guilin, and actually got time to explore the areas around rather than just the city center and Yangshuo. Oil tea always has a special place in my heart. It was my grandpa's favourite food. He used cook it for the family every week and he basically fed on it everyday. I to the date still miss the oil tea he used to cook, of which the taste was so special and I have never come across the same flavour any more after he passed away. RIP.
Wow, oil tea is definitely a new one. Seems Chinese people love your warm personality, eagerness to try local cuisines, understand their culture, and speaking and reading Mandarin goes a LONG way!!♥️😺😋👍
So lucky to meet so many beautiful people in your travels and not to mention the yummy food as well :) always enjoy you videos and look forward to them.
He seems so sweet and knowledgeable. very kind of him to come down and have breakfast with you to explain all the dishes. I can't wait to be able to stop by there to try some
Hearing more about mugwort when she describes the aiyebaba and how it's not just some random plant makes me understand better in Avatar the Last Airbender why Iroh's Chinese name includes the name of that plant.
I’ve been bingeing your videos, love them btw, but I cannot get over how lovely all the people are and how they go out of their way to share their culture with you. It saddens me that they might not experience the same warmth in my country. They really seem to welcome you and make you feel part of the family. It’s just so lovely to see, I’ve loved getting to know China a bit better through your videos ❤
Good work - love food adventures .... Back in the mid 80's for about 10 years I was a Tour Director & dreaded arriving to Guilin and more than once instant noodles was the better alternative. The scenery was magnificent, but the food in Guilin & Xian (except for lamb kebabs) were probably the worst of all cities on any China tour schedule. I am pleased to see that times and the prosperity of Guangxi have changed along with its menus - must go there for a re-visit soon.
This is the earliest I've caught your video! Love all the snacks that you tried. Love the look of the green tea cakes and pumpkin cake. Youcha sounds very interesting and unique!
so early the other two comments haven’t even loaded! 😅 plus that “oh pretty lady! you’re back!” was so sweet 🥺 chinese folk seem so friendly, welcoming and hospitable, especially if you speak mandarin too - taking in all these recs for when i finally go! love the videos amy, sending good vibes and health from the uk 💌
I am not jealous. I am NOT jealous. I AM JEALOUS!! (But happy for Amy and thankful she shared with us.) Hoping to find a recipe for oil tea I can make in the U.S.
Since you are in Changchun now, try the 油茶面 or 油炒面there. Other than names, they are quite different from the Guangxi 油茶. Though I don't care about it as a young kid, I definitely grow to love it much more.
Hahaha same to me everytimes I travel alone really hard to order food...everything looks delicious ...btw At airport of Kigali and waiting for the flight back to China 🎉
12:28 *Amy* The "egg yellow" you refer to is "salted egg yolk" which is ubiquitous in China and has become world renowned among top chefs for it's umami. In the states it's described as a cheese like texture so it appeals to Americans.
I loved your cheers with the tea, both trying to respect the other and place the glass lower. You have made so many friends and the boss was so kind. I wish I was there with you, it looked yummy!
youcha is also a thing in the neighbouring province of Hunan, at least the part where it’s close to Guangxi. I’ve tried that in my mom’s hometown there, but i didn’t really like it tho…
We have something similar to the aiyababa in singapore! It's called "ang ku kueh", based on it being traditionally red and in a turtle shell shaped mold ! The fillings are usually sugar and peanuts, or mung bean paste! It's so fascinating the nyonya culture has similar food to the city that you are in!
So interesting, in Sichuan, youcha is more like congee with pickles and spicy peppers and crispy noodles and peanuts on top. One of my favourite things!
We have the same Kellogs creal in the USA but it is branded Rice Crispy. (edit - all the foods look fantastic and so happy you got to have company for breakfast)
That aiye aba . The mugwort snack. I need to find out more. I believe that is a snack from my mom's childhood that I would love to recreate or order for her TY
One of the mechanisms by which chinese tea and this youcha and hakka leicha "cut through the oiliness" and aid digestion, just like (digestif/aperitif) bitters do, is by stimulating bile flow.
I've actually had pumpkin cake before in America. At the time, someone else ordered it, I didn't know it was a Guangxi dish. It was good, but mostly tasted like sticky rice with dark sugar with the outside tasted like a Japanese tempura pork cutlet.
Looks like the Guangxi version of dimsum. looks so yummy. I always prefer tiny amounts of many varieties than 1 huge portion of 1 thing, so dim sum is a favourite and this looks good too.
There are two traditional dishes called oil tea (油茶） and vegetable tea （菜茶）in my hometown “Shanwei (汕尾）”，which are kind of like the oil tea in your video.
Soup with some tea leaves. Japanese also use (powdered) tea leaves for EVERYTHING, not just tea drinking but also in ice cream, candy, chocolate, bread, cake, and etc. Rice bubbles (puffed rice) and (non skim) milk also has some oil/fat.
Did you finish all of that? Looks like a lot. Gosh! How do you eat so much? Even if you just take a little bit of each. Lady, I salute you. Total respect.
Love your show, but I'm sorry to tell you that you've only touched the edge of Guangxi food, 😸but there's no way around it, China is so big, you've done a great job
It's similar to out chinese Hakka 'leicha' but more of super green leafy taste and flavor, you should try our Hakka cuisine though, we're spread widely across Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian regions.
the ‘marketing‘ cmt is quite hilarious😂😂that county is so small&remote and no one will go there and the youtuber doesn't have the influence you think in China yet

The boss definitely gives a different vibe, so polite and gentleman
不同平台的热评都是夸老板
@@zijiaodai4006 可这老板是真的热情大方鸭☺️
談吐感覺很有文化
The restaurant owner was an example of how nice people can be.
I think the owner was kind/generous to treat Amy to a hearty breakfast.
The boss is so nice and gentle.
aww the boss is so sweet, chinese people are so kind and welcoming to foreigners
Your display pic is so cute❤❤
Yep,chinese people are very kind and welcoming to foreigners
Guangxi people are so friendly, from Jason to this boss.
The boss from the restaurant is really kind to you, Miss Amy, that offered yum cha for breakfast.
Smart move on the Boss's part to come eat with you. Great marketing move on his part. You did great Amy as always. You have really developed into an international top class professional foodie. Your presentation, style and content is excellent. Extremely well presented and captivating!
not everyone thinks in such a strategic manner like you. It could be just his inherent generosity at being a good host.
marketing? #lmao
It bothers me that a generation ago, your comment would be considered an accusation but now a days , it wouldn't.
I dont think that this Restaurant in the middle of nowhere profits form the report of an australian travelfoodblogger, think its pure generosity
@@MrJackal00 agreed
Love your videos! I am adopted from China and live in the US. Watching your videos has helped me learn so much about Chinese culture. It would be so cool if you vlogged traveling to Shangrao in Jiangxi province sometime! I would love to see the food from there
It would be much better if you go and find out by yourself.😁
You should just go.
As a fellow adopted Chinese person, the other replies aren't useful but I totally agree. I love Amy's videos and the moment that I can go to explore China, it will be really hard for me to decide where to go first

祖籍是江西上饶吗。有时间回来看看吧，去看看和你长相一样、血统一样的人过着什么样的生活。
真的很佩服AMY有那麼好的胃口，多謝介紹那麼多國內美食

How nice to see yum cha for one turned into yum cha for two where Amy (🙏 for free) learned something while we learned even more! :D
Wow, oil tea is definitely a new one. Seems Chinese people love your warm personality, eagerness to try local cuisines, understand their culture, and speaking and reading Mandarin goes a LONG way!!♥️😺😋👍
So lucky to meet so many beautiful people in your travels and not to mention the yummy food as well :) always enjoy you videos and look forward to them.
That was such a lovely and friendly place. Wouldn't it be wonderful if all restaurants and cafes had this welcoming vibe.
He seems so sweet and knowledgeable. very kind of him to come down and have breakfast with you to explain all the dishes. I can't wait to be able to stop by there to try some
Born and raised in Guangxi for 20 years, you ate so many different food than me, now I'm watching your videos here in South Florida.
You know you're becoming Chinese when you start calling "egg yolk" "egg yellow".
Hearing more about mugwort when she describes the aiyebaba and how it's not just some random plant makes me understand better in Avatar the Last Airbender why Iroh's Chinese name includes the name of that plant.

The green cake coated with sesames looks really good. I like the fried pumpkin cake too.

Wow this looks so tasty 😋 I’m so glad the travelling situation is much better now so I can easily travel there soon :)
When Blondie said 'I will I will', it's funny to hear that, LOL.
I am not jealous. I am NOT jealous. I AM JEALOUS!! (But happy for Amy and thankful she shared with us.) Hoping to find a recipe for oil tea I can make in the U.S.
Best food ambassador on RUclips. What better way to connect different cultures and people than through food.
有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎
到广西的南部可以吃各种粉，粉的口感跟广东河粉不一样的，更软糯，口味酸辣，有老友粉、牛腩粉、猪脚粉、盖（米乙）、番心（米乙）、灰水（米乙）、虾公（米乙）等等
Greetings from a Changchun'er living in Dresden👍🏻
Since you are in Changchun now, try the 油茶面 or 油炒面there. Other than names, they are quite different from the Guangxi 油茶. Though I don't care about it as a young kid, I definitely grow to love it much more.
Dreaming of the day I can visit China again when everything settles down!
Soon you can 😊
Hahaha same to me everytimes I travel alone really hard to order food...everything looks delicious ...btw At airport of Kigali and waiting for the flight back to China 🎉
Thanks for sharing. The restaurant owner is so nice and exclaiming so well. I want to try the pumpkin and green sesame pastry!!
That’s why I follow your channel. A perspective into the never ending local eats.
The boss is so gentle. BTW, "You" and "Rou" in Guangxi accent sound like the same, lol🤣
12:28 *Amy* The "egg yellow" you refer to is "salted egg yolk" which is ubiquitous in China and has become world renowned among top chefs for it's umami. In the states it's described as a cheese like texture so it appeals to Americans.
thanks for that note. as i dont like actual cheese so egg pretending to be cheese works for me! LoL
Very cool, thanks for showing us!
it's funny that Amy has started saying egg yellow instead of egg yolk 😂
She's gone "Chinglish"
I caught that too 😂蛋黄
the lipu taro is indeed very famous. I remembered I watched a tv series which have something to do with it. now I know where it is produced
Definitely awesome how welcoming the boss was. Very classy!
哈哈哈哈 你的口音也逐渐变得地道了，平乐一直没有去过，广西真的是宝藏，吃的东西很丰富，另外也欢迎你到广西崇左来，这边的大新也值得一游。
Looks really yummy breakfast! Never seen this before, thanks for showing us!
I loved your cheers with the tea, both trying to respect the other and place the glass lower. You have made so many friends and the boss was so kind. I wish I was there with you, it looked yummy!
Yum yum - the oil tea with snacks, sounds like a great breakfast.
First time I hear of "oil tea". Sounds very interesting. Must be unique to the province of Guangxi.
youcha is also a thing in the neighbouring province of Hunan, at least the part where it’s close to Guangxi. I’ve tried that in my mom’s hometown there, but i didn’t really like it tho…
In other provinces of China, like Shaanxi and Henan, we have a dish with the same name “ oil tea”, but completely different thing.
oh i absolutely love those rice cakes, it's my favourite snacks whenever i get a chance to get one
I like that Laoban was very elegant and gentle. The way he use chopsticks... LIKE !
Always uplifting, the highlight of my week!
We have something similar to the aiyababa in singapore! It's called "ang ku kueh", based on it being traditionally red and in a turtle shell shaped mold ! The fillings are usually sugar and peanuts, or mung bean paste! It's so fascinating the nyonya culture has similar food to the city that you are in!
my favorite thing is watching videos about Chinese food and learning about Australian food lol! first it was bell pepper, and now rice krispies!?
So interesting, in Sichuan, youcha is more like congee with pickles and spicy peppers and crispy noodles and peanuts on top. One of my favourite things!
Thank you Boss.
We understand more about the food now.
What a nice place, and like you I wish more places offered a sampler plate.
We have the same Kellogs creal in the USA but it is branded Rice Crispy. (edit - all the foods look fantastic and so happy you got to have company for breakfast)
So glad to see you enjoy your trip to Guilin and hope to see more videos about Guangxi😍
Wonderful! Thanks!
老板很nice，印证了那句老话：有朋自远方来，不亦乐乎~~~
That aiye aba . The mugwort snack. I need to find out more. I believe that is a snack from my mom's childhood that I would love to recreate or order for her TY
The solo eating thing is such a mood
Eating out alone is a real pain, sometimes you get stuffed after ordering two dishes, but there are more than 20 dishes on the menu!
老板说话很温柔啊 油茶南瓜饼好吃
Oh, yum! Maybe in the future you could run a foodie tour, Blondie's AM/PM (breakfast, lunch, dinner & snacks) !
I believe Amy is really popular among Chinese Fans. There is no way you could get treated to have breakfast by the restaurant boss 😆
那个三角饺我想在深圳做！ 自己开店做早餐卖它！太好吃了

The boss examplifies what chinese hospitality is about. It's normal Chinese culture.
This will be on my bucket list.👍
TIL: Rice Krispies are called Rice Bubbles in Australia
I've actually had pumpkin cake before in America. At the time, someone else ordered it, I didn't know it was a Guangxi dish. It was good, but mostly tasted like sticky rice with dark sugar with the outside tasted like a Japanese tempura pork cutlet.
I don't know if it's neccesarily a Guangxi dish, I've seen it in many places in China
@@LOVE..Sherelle Oh OK. But I'm sure it's not a Cantonese dish because I've never seen it in Guangzhou and Hong Kong.
这种东西不具有地域特色，基本上在全中国都有。做法很简单，大家都爱吃，日本有类似的也很正常。
That oil tea is very popular and famous breakfast in China!
Looks like the Guangxi version of dimsum. looks so yummy. I always prefer tiny amounts of many varieties than 1 huge portion of 1 thing, so dim sum is a favourite and this looks good too.
Speak Chinese very well, with North Accent. 东北大妞 👍
难道只有我一人感觉宁可不吃酿菜，也不能错过荔浦芋头，想想芋头饭、芋粿、芋头蒸肉、芋头鸭、芋香排骨、芋艿红烧肉，地瓜芋圆，芋头糕、芋泥、芋头扣肉、芋圆......
赶紧下单解馋。
Another great video 👍 That looks like a really hearty breakfast I would love to try!

I love all good snaks made from sticky rice. But cautious to eat even a bit more due to hard to digest.
If time permits go to 恭城县, that's the birthplace of 油茶. Or, when you're back in Yangshuo go to 小油条, that's the most popular 油茶 place in Yangshuo!!
Did you finish all of that? Looks like a lot. Gosh! How do you eat so much? Even if you just take a little bit of each. Lady, I salute you. Total respect.
Love your vibes. 🥰
老板/店员热情好客会做生意👍👍👍
Those pumpkin bing looked soooo good!!
Thanks for your introduction to China from your view.
If someone asked me ''how are these eaten?' I'd say 'with my mouth'
😅😅😅
😂it’s a translation thing here, it actually means “how do you like it? or what do you think of it?”
This reminds me of Tibetan yak butter tea - also kind of oily tea. I bet Derk would love the Guilin weather haha.
Love your show, but I'm sorry to tell you that you've only touched the edge of Guangxi food, 😸but there's no way around it, China is so big, you've done a great job
Omg, can't wait for your video about tarooo, i'm taro lover~~~
Omg, free spirit, not even afraid of the virus. Always using old videos. Never up -to -date.
Thank you, I learnt something new today.
This is my hometown! The blogger can eat oil tea soaked in rice cake next time, which is also delicious!😋😎
0:49 favorite part. i see myself screaming 😂
Brilliant.
The Bee at the beginning was like: I wanna come too! ☺️
It's similar to out chinese Hakka 'leicha' but more of super green leafy taste and flavor, you should try our Hakka cuisine though, we're spread widely across Guangdong, Guangxi, Fujian regions.
