The more I've watched your videos, the more I appreciate your mom's perspective. She's so open minded and never trying to grab the attention of the camera. I trust her opinions and enjoy her affirmative presence!
“Don't worry there is no lungs in this!" "it's tripe, heart, tendon and tongue" 😂😂😂

其实是夫妻废片,废片是指切剩下的不成型的边角料。后来觉得不好听,加上以讹传讹就变成夫妻肺片了。

Amy, despite the strained relationship between Australia and China, it's people like you and your parents that remind me there are always good people in every country. Keep up the good work!
Yes, too bad anti-China sentiment is growing in Australia, even though Australia is located closer to Asia than America and China is Australia's biggest trading partner.
@@delongtsway953 That's confusing...
@@Shawn-vn7rr ok then nevermind.
@@cupcakechronicles4551 The Australian government themselves democratically elected their own politicians, like Scott Morrison who is fanning the flames of racism against China and following US's anti-China stance, then how is politics and people separated when the Australian people elected their own leaders?
Now Our Scott Morrison are trying to repair the damage done by following Trump regime by opening up the travel bubble for China. Not yet confirm
Hi Amy, as a Chinese, I just wanna say I really appreciate your great effort and enthusiasm in introducing Chinese food and culture, and obviously, you know a lot about them! Hope you can get more subscribers!
Thank you!
I watched it for the first time, subscribed and shared it straight away😉😉 Good job!!! Pls keep it up! Your parents are amazing🎉👏🎈 from Hong Kong
OMG! I can't stop watching the rest of your videos😜😅💪
And Amy has very supportive and adventurous parents 😙
@@BlondieinChina Your mum's glasses are reflecting her whiskers. I just happened to notice it while watching the video, I was wondering what it was at first.😊😊😊😊
Amy Australia should give you an ambassador role in China.
Ambassadors need love Australia. She loves China.
@@yx3472 Since when loving china represents not loving Australia? This is how you guys divide people and tag them, isn't it?
@@梅天培 This is how ppl got divided
@@梅天培 Apparently he/she didn't know what ambassador meant
Too bad anti-China sentiment is growing in Australia regardless. I doubt any ambassador can fix the deteriorating Australia-China relations.
As a Sichanese girl, so proud to see that your parents were so amazed by our Sichuan cuisine. You’ve done so much to promote Chinese culture and food. It’s rare to see a foreigner who is so open and accepting to everything and you definitely have a Chinese stomach like us.😂 Really appreciate it!
Aww thank you! So happy you liked it, hope I did your cuisine justice haha
我第一眼把你的名字看错了ᥬ😂᭄
@@BlondieinChina Same here you are spot on.
What attracted me to watch the series of food adventures is the chemistry between u and your parents. I am sure you know, but your parents love u so much. Their love for you is oozing off the screen. Amazing.
A nice family affair. I must share this with my Chinese language students. Wonderful eats, amazing pronunciation, and highly educational. Well done. Looking forward to the next one!
As a Sichuanese who has lived in the UK for so long, this is the video I show to people to explain my love for Sichuan food. What accurate representations and made me so proud of my home food.
你还可以发food ranger吃货老外的东西给别人看,外省朋友来四川之前问我该吃什么,我就发吃货老外的视频给他们,他们说你疯了吗,找成都美食居然是看老外的视频.....我说我作为一个成都土著,在网上看到最详细最丰富而且最深入最正宗的推荐大合集还真就是这个老外做的,强烈推荐~
When Antonio Bourdin travelled to Chengdu couple years ago, he said, “You live five years in China and only scratch the surface of its food culture.” 😋😋😋
Couldn’t agree more!
I doubt one would make it out of Chengdu after 5 years

@@sltga1254 , my bad.
@@PaddyMan1988 All good. :)
I’ve never been so intimidated by Chinese cuisine until I came across Szechuan cuisine. I can never convinced myself to visit any Szechuan restaurants and order myself a full blown Szechuan courses like you guys did here. I have a lot of reservation for this cuisine. The color and the extreme amount of peppercorns used turn me off badly. Anyway just want say that your conviction to explore and introduce Chinese food is worth applauding to. Also your dad and mom are the perfect example of a great parent that encourages their kid to chase their dream and passion. Kudos to you and your parents! Hope to see more great foodblog/content from your channel!
These parents are So Game; such good sports! Clearly not as adventurous as Amy (I certainly wouldn’t be either, although I deeply appreciate her willingness to try!), but their love and appreciation for their worldly offspring is very much on display here. Well done everyone! Every good thing about family and appreciation for new cultures is on display here.
Besides introducing delicious Chinese cuisines, I would definitely love to see you share about the parenting skills that your parents have been practicing. Such a lovely family!
Your parents are such troopers! They’re willing to try so many different Chinese cuisine with you. Can’t wait to see more videos ! ☺️😊
Thanks for watching Vicky!!
RUclips brought me here.. love from Canada!
Awesome! Hugs from Sydney!
I’m from Canada too!
Lol, amazing
My husband and I have spent every weekend going to all your food recommendations in Sydney! I’m Chinese and I know nothing about all these different cuisines! Thank you for educating us! We are obsessed with your parents too! I love your dads jokes 🤣
Me and my wife did the same. 😄 I am Scottish my wife is Chinese, this spicy joint is one of our favourite restaurants!
I am so jealous of all you guys. I am Chinese living in Italy. We have absolutely no decent Chinese restaurant here. The best Chinese food around is in my kitchen but I am not a good cook. It is so unfair...crying...
@@luyang9990 Cheer up
加油
What I love the most about your video is that not only you bring this authentic happiness and positivity in your video, all the information in the video is also very authentic and well researched.
The most authentic Chinese food youtuber I have even seen!
your dad is so funny! Comedy genius! I love him.
Love your parents' attitude to try any food you introduced them to.
Amy 你下次可以先吃分量小的不带汤的菜,吃完前面四道菜最后吃回锅肉可能已经凉了,其实可以最后吃水煮鱼片,因为它上面覆盖了一层油,不容易散热,可以保温很久
反正吃不完就打包!
我感觉水煮鱼片凉了一会有点腥啊2333。
@@ruiwang8024 上面一层油不容易凉的
但水煮鱼最好吃的就是起锅起来后淋了油的第一层,就那几口,剩下大半锅就可以像你说的慢慢吃
Wow, I just discovered you today and I’m SO Happy. I absolutely love Sichuan food, my favourites are boiled fish (I agree with your dad that it is the yummiest fish I have ever had), maps tofu, cold noodles, and eggplant. I first discovered this cuisine watching Anthony Bourdain. I’m in Melbourne and Bourdain raved about Dainty Sichuan where I have had all of the above but they also have an incredible eggplant dish that is crunchy and toffee-like on the outside and soft in the middle. It’s time I went back to Dainty Sichuan I think! I can’t wait to watch more of your content. Thank you!
😋😋😋 hope Australia have more family like yours which is open minded,not bias & respect to other cultures. Bravo 👏👏👏 keep up the good work
What a lovely family! Always great to see how supportive your parents are!
I loveee this series!! Your parents have the best reactions
yay!! Thanks for watching and supporting!
This family style format is really working on me, great video!
Really happy to hear that!
I think what the dish with beans you talked about is “干煸四季豆”.
Yes!!! Exactly
@@BlondieinChina Wow, fast response! Cantonese food, "粤菜", is also famous in China. You can try some too. By the way, if you want to learn how to cook Chinese food, you can check this link: ruclips.net/channel/UCg0m_Ah8P_MQbnn77-vYnYw. Wang Gang is my favorite chef because his videos are detailed and useful, even if you are a newbie(小白) in cooking. In addition, Wang Gang is from Sichuan, you can find how to cook 麻婆豆腐,回锅肉,宫保鸡丁 in his videos. After watching his video, I believe you will have a deeper understanding of Chinese food.
干煸土豆丝 我觉得他们也会喜欢 哈哈哈
But 干煸豆角 is not supposed to have chilli in? Am I right?
@@hunhunhaha Actually, it contains chilli in the traditional version.
I am a Chinese, but you have a much better understanding of the Chinese foods. I learned a lot from you. Thanks.
Amy, we usually say “碰一个”, “喝一个”, or just “来,来,来” and rising your hand with that glass of beer. It is true that we don't usually directly drink with a bottle, and just pour it into a small glass repeatedly.
Love your dad's attitude!! He is hilarious!!
I almost cried at the end when your parents kissed you because my family are all in China and I'm in the US and I miss eating with my family. 😭
And I think you are absolutely on point about sichuanese food: spicy is just there to bring out the bold flavors, unlike how sichuanese food’s rep in western countries, which is that spicy is the only thing that comes to mind.
I also recommend watching Li Ziqi’s videos. She shows how sichuanese food is really made and most of them don’t contain chilly peppers at all!
That's a very well composed top5 list of Sichuan food! You guys just got me drooling over my laptop in the middle of the night lol. I urgently need some shui-zhu-yu now! The way Amy broke down each dish's taste and the reaction from your parents gave me some good ideas about what and how to introduce Sichuan dishes to my foreign friends. Awesome video!
Your dad and mum are so adorable. Love you from a chinese in Us . You make me so Miss my country.
Thanks for watching! So happy you enjoyed the video
Your mum really sold this video! I love your parents reactions; seems like you can get any Chinese food imaginable in Sydney
Your family is so great, I like your Dad and Mom very much.
i love this series. never stop trying new foods
So happy to hear that, Sharon!!
In Romania, we are making a salamy from the intestines, tripe, heart, tendon, tongue, it's in our culture to eat everything from an animal!
high five!

Why ur dad is so cute, I like him so much so funny and adorable 😍
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video. Your mom is such a dear and your dad makes me tear up missing my dad. You have such a beautiful family something sorely missing in the western world. Bless you and keep being happy
The panda photo is so nice, the panda looks straight to the camera. Best shot.
@17:30, "HOW AMAZING IS THAT FLAVOR! " as if you were saying " DONT YOU DARE DISAGREE WITH ME" LOL. You looked you REALLY enjoyed the food..Glad you all enjoyed it ! So proud of my hometown cuisine :)
😂 I love this series! As a Cantonese, good food is the soul of my life! Also, huge huge fan of your parents!
so cool your parents can enjoy this piece of culture with you!!! 太棒了
That´s so good for us mexicans!! Our favorite food in China, no doubt. Excellent substitute for pozole (mexican soup)🤗😀
So true! I bet a lot of mexicans would love sichuan food
Yeah, Mexican aboriginals are the ancestor of Chili peppers around the world. Thanks to Sichuan cuisine's adoption, now more and more people are able to enjoy Chili peppers. Sichuan and Hunan have been locking in competition who has the best Chili pepper dishes and claimed they have been Chili-spicy for thousands of years, which is completely false. Actually they have never seen or imagined how many heirloom Chili pepper varieties on this side of Pacific coast. :-)
Looks great. Your dad is very brave. I was born in Beijing but immigrated to Australia with my parents when I was 4. I have never gotten used to eating offal and I can’t use chopsticks to save my life. It embarrasses my parents that I sometimes need to ask for a fork in Asian restaurants. Love watching your videos Amy. It really makes me feel closer to my roots. I hope that one day I’ll be able to travel throughout China like you have been able to do.
Omg your dad's socks 🤣😂
hahahahaha!!
Yes!!
He is so cute! 😊
Greetings from a Sichuan girl. Love you and your parents. You guys are just lovely.
Mapo tofu 😋 . We just tried this earlier this year. It has become one of our fav dish.
so tasty!
I'm so into trying mapo curry right now
Watching your videos always brightens up my day!!!! I love the chill yet fun vibes your whole family gives off
Thank you so much for those lovely words!! Makes me so happy
@@BlondieinChina ☺️❤️❤️
We have a new modern way of saying "cheers". In Chinese, we call "走一个“(ZOU YI GE)”
cute!
It means run one
I was going to say that! We use that a lot in the north. It basically means "give it a go".
@@BlondieinChina 我干了你随意 敬你一杯 (随意的祝福, 祝xxxx, 或者节日快乐都可以表示要来一口)
Lol... In Cantonese we say Drink Up instead of Gan Bei
I agree with your dad! The boiled fish is probably one of my fav fish dishes ever. It's such an amazing combo of flavors 😋
amy介绍每道菜的时候,爸爸妈妈都会放下筷子很认真的听。amy你能不能告诉他们,可以边吃边听呀,要不然菜都凉啦😂😂😂
I was born in China and visit there often, Sichuan food is my favorite. There's so much more but if I had to only choose 5 I would have chosen the exact same 5 you did. Great video.
Saying 干杯 and having a sip is totally is fine. You can even replace the beer with juice and still say 干杯.
So sweet that you cherish your parents - 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
FYI: "祝酒" is a written and very formal word with the meaning of "giving a toast"
Love to see how passionate she is about Chinese culture and its cuisine! 😂
For one been drinking for many years I just want to clarify “干杯”means bottoms up and “随意" is more close to cheers.
Thanks for that Sean!!
Wow, look at you, you are totally an expert in the philosophy of sichuan cuisines. I still remember your earlier clips on hot pots. Comparing to then, you have learnt so much about sichuan food.
BTW just when i was wondering how you hit Huiguorou, the all time classic, you just said baidu. No wonder your knowledge is so different to the stereotypical western chinese learners. Kung pao chicken isn't so common in sichuan anymore, but i have to give u credit for putting it on your list, after all it's THE dish let people outside sichuan start to know sichuan cruises, and it is a genuine sichuan dish. I am very impressed you put kung pao chicken on your list after you've done your research on how it should be like instead of blindly following the stereotype trend.
期待你尝试一下马来西亚餐😁介绍你吃

哈哈,马来西亚四川移民太少,大马好吃的、正宗的,传统上基本上以福建菜、潮汕菜为主。
你大马除了鸡饭还几乎没有什么有名的食物
You should really be the chinese ambassador, in the USA we need someone like you! :)
感觉你介绍四川美食、成都美食,比我这个正宗成都人懂的还多....还知道担担面....

Mom remembers all the food she had before..lovely dad n mom..fun parents!!
Growing up in China, I was always told that when I’m ganbei-ing someone superior to me in age or work, I should make sure to put my cup lower than his or hers as a sign of respect. I don’t know if that’s just Beijing or it’s the same elsewhere in China.
Applicable to the whole of China
Sometimes people jokingly dodging the clang, move their glass lower than the other and try to clang when they are lower, end up lowering the glass to the floor.
Also in Japan
@@boyimc2086 true
Yes, that shows respect.
Love your parents. They are so sweet and awesome!
in northern China what we usually say is "走一个" 😂😂
非常感叹Amy能为这个视频做这么多功课!可以看得出来真的花了很多时间~非常喜欢这个系列~每期必看!!喜欢你的爸妈 哈哈 以及很久没见Becky了!!
啊对!从袜子上看到hhhhhhhhhh
麻婆 in Sichuan dialect means " pockmarked man's wife". There is a pockmarked man, nickname as 王麻子,who has a beautiful wife, people call her 麻婆,which is short way stands for "wife of pockmarked Wang", she knows a special way to cook the tofu, that's how the dish name come from.
川菜历史大讲堂开课啦
Hi Amy, I must confess that I rarely comment on RUclips but just wanted to say that you have an awesome personality. From the way you smile, your cool parents and the rich content that you churn out every time.( From a guy who has never been to China and trying to discover my own roots hehe)
Thank you so much, Warren! Really appreciate your kind words ❤️❤️❤️

Cannot wait for the Hunan food episode. Your dad's reaction is so funny 😂 I am from Jiangxi province, which is also known for very spicy food. But there are few Jiangxi restaurants overseas though...
Mom: "You are not selling it", After Boiled fish, "I am selling it," said Mom
I am Chinese living in the UK currently and when I am eating out at a Chinese I usually ordered the exact same dishes as Amy! Fuiqi feipian (my fav out of the bunch because it's really good if you're eating it with rice!) , shui zhu yu (the boiled fish dish), mapo tofu and sometimes laziji (mala chicken). Guys, give them a try at your nearest Chinese restaurant!
You can say: "我干杯, 你隨意", or vice versa.
lol vice versa? “你先干,我随意” XD
you are the best food reviewer i saw on youtube! i wish you to get a lot of subscribers
To my knowledge "祝酒“ is the act of toasting whereas 碰杯 is literally clinking your glasses together... I don't think people use either casually to say let's drink?
Thanks for sharing that!!
We do but rare, also some people say 走一个,which is quite casual.
I love this series with your family!! Keep up the great work!!
blondie: let me clarify, saying 乾杯 doesn't require you skull it, hope that clears it up
me, an american: what's it mean to skull something, i thought that was a noun
pretty sure it's the word skål, which is said in Swedish/Danish/Norwegian when toasting
Thank you for introducing Sichuanese food to the world!You are truly the good friend of Chinese,hope u come back to China to experiencing more food in the future,come to Chengdu again pls
Very interesting dishes and look fantastic, they make my mouth watering 👍. Thanks for sharing them with us.
Great video! Love your parents in your videos, especially your dad, funny man! Keep up with your great work! Gonna watch another video of yours!🤩
what a lovely dinner with your lovely parents (and the good food)!!!!
夫妻肺片is my fav dish too! and coming from the South/Guangdong, I normally just say "饮啖(or喝点吧in普通话)“ instead of "饮杯(喝一杯or even干杯)” simply becoz I need to slow down my consumption of alcohol coz drinking with my crazy frds usually lasts the entire meal (not to mention the entire night, in many cases)...
And, I love how you are very comfortable talking about Chinese food and culture ~ you really are our 同胞 now :)
As a semi-Sichuanese and meat-lover, highly highly recommend 酥肉!You can eat it dry with spiced salt or slightly cook it in hotpot soup! Trust me it's AWESOME
lovely parents....the most awesome dad and mom. Your dad really fun person.
I walked past this restaurant the other day and was wondering whether it was good - now I can’t wait to go. I made huiguorou yesterday - it is delicious! Thanks for another great video!
omg you made huiguorou?? Recipe please!!!!
@@BlondieinChina it‘s the one from Chinese Cooking Demystified - I love Chris & Stef. It’s actually a lot easier than a stir fry with raw meat. I’ve made it with pork loin (skin on), which was on special.
I gave up cooking Chinese a few years ago because cook books were just not good enough. CCD single-handedly got me back to Chinese cooking. They are just the best at explaining a range of techniques and aspects of various Chinese food cultures that have been badly dealt with in most books.

Coming from someone who grew up in China, your research is spot on! The bean dish you were thinking of is 干煸四季豆, my favorite Sichuanese veggie dish. 回锅肉 is my overall favorite :)
