    Cantonese food can be both oily/flavorful and refreshing/simple at the same time, it has dishes of either styles. The balance is amazing.

  • @reneechang9509

    I love watching you guys eat. I am half Cantonese (Hakka) and half French Canadian and I live in Montreal. My father is the Chinese one and he and his seven brothers and sisters grew up in Trinidad so, we have Caribbean And Cantonese food in our family. There is always so much food when we have holiday gatherings. I have cousins in New York, New Hampshire, Toronto, Vancouver…
    Part of why I love watching you guys is that I didn't grow up with a lot of Asians around me, we are the only ones in Montreal. I am easily singled out because I will eat almost anything while my friends well.... aren't Asian.
    Keep making these great videos!

    Thank you guys for making this content and sharing Cantonese cuisine! As a Canadian born Chinese, I've struggled with finding my own cultural identity. It's really nice to see the familiarity with all of this and makes me feel connected.

      The only bitch is the lost of our language. The younger generation after the Fung Bros can't even speak a lick of Cantonese nor know their history. This seems lost in southern China. More of the concern is with HK after the political changes recently making Mandarin the primary language for primary schools and state tv. To be diplomatic..both languages should be learned but in some ways your independence is lost.

    Andrew haircut remind me of one of the HK film called Shaolin Popeye in the 90s. There is no Dungeness Crab exist in Canton Province Nor any parts of Southern China Sea so we get them here in the states and the restaurant did a fine job of incorporate on top of glutinous rice. Out of all the dim sum dishes that already introduced, there are few could have been gone from existence and they're already hard except in one or two now a day. One of my favorites was "Sim Ha An Jump Fun" aka fresh shrimp with silver needle noodles also called pearl mee in Singapore or mouse tail noodles. Tin Ho Wan is one of the best dim sum restaurants with top michellin star ratings.

    Up here, most of the Canto-inspired Americanized Chinese restaurants are staffed and run by Fuzhounese, and the music on the overhead is frequently canned Mandarin. Yeah, they all have "Szechwan" and "Hunan" -esque food, but it's more about a label than a style. But that's these smaller places outside a large (NYC) city. Still good.

    Cantonese Food always stand out. Chopped Green ScallionTopping on Chicken. Will taste better if the chef make it mince with fresh mince young ginger with hot oil and light soy sauce. Hor Fun (Rice Flat Noodles) is best from Malaysia made. Noodles is thin 0.5cm and super smooth (wat). No doubt the Hong Kong porridge is the best. Best fragrant oil is Fried Garlic Oil, white pepper powder (brand ajinamoto) and lots of chopped green onion and 1 tbsp shaoxing wine.
