+laowhy86 I cannot believe you guys skipped siu mai （燒賣）！also, traditional dim sum places don't serve xiao long bao, at least I've never been to one in HK and Macau that serves them. But great video!
Xiao Long Bao was never a Dim Sum. It's a popular Shanghai dish. Don't know when and who start introduce it as Dim Sum. But I am glad it did since it is cheaper as Dim Sum especially that the only Shanghai food I like. Many people eat it with red vinegar as it is the way it was served in Shanghai restaurant.
It's all about preparation, as far as I'm concerned. Sometimes stomach can be like chewing on rubber, other times it's delightful. I don't understand the love for chicken feet though. Too many bones for little reward. They also can be good, but I wouldn't go out of my way to get them.
Have to say, your videos have surpassed Winston's as far as entertaining now. You two are so great together. Vivi is so CUTE, Liv is absolutely adorable, and your kinda cute in your own way C-milk.....lol Please keep at it and producing more videos....you guys have become VERY popular!!
Great again and again and again......... You know what I love about you and Winston - you guys were normal(Sure, your ladies and friends too). Not this bombastic made and cutted video - you show it real, not pushed like some commercials or so. Authentic was the right word I think. Thank you for that.
Yes, some You Tubers are loudmouthed idiots- and by the numbers quite a few people like that sort of thing. EW! I despair for humanity. :-( You guys are smart and interesting.
NY is like a Chinese food desert. I grew up on Long Island NY and all we ever had were those little take out places run by Fujianese people. The dishes General Tso chicken, Egg foo yung, and Shrimp with lobster sauce were popular but in no way Chinese. But if you are in NY again, I highly recommend you swing through Flushing Queens. Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao is excellent! There are a couple others around there that are authentic too! Vivi is so cute! You rock C-milk! Keep cranking out these great vids!
Your absolutely right about the buns with egg custard in them. I had some a few weeks back in Chaozhou and it was EXCELLENT. Now chicken feet, I dunno man...I just can't quite wrap my mind around that one (and I've lived in China off-and-on again for over 20 years).
I never had those custard filled ones, ill try that next time I get dim sum. I guess you can say most mainstream dim sum is Shu Mai in the States/Canada.
Any variety of this dessert type I love, although here in Germany they tend to make varieties without a bun, it seems. One restaurant here calls it fried milk, another one baked pudding. Somehow it tastes better than any pudding or custard I ever had. My guess it it's the combination of heat and lots of sugar.
Hey chicken feet is fantastic as the shrimp dumplings. The cow stomach, my family makes this different from the Chinese way, also I have not had it would love to try everything else I’m going to have to go back to my Chineses restaurant in China town In NYC. Thank you for this introduction to some food, should do more. Love the three of you oh sorry your four people family now......
Vivi and CM, did you guys try Dim Sum Go Go or Golden Unicorn in Chinatown. They are the best in NYC. There is always a very long wait during the weekends. My favorite is the beef meat balls and spring rolls.
Xia jiao is one of my fav food of all time and I love cheung fun with shrimp aswell especially with the hot mustard, in Vancouver there is amazing dim sum (also seafood in general bc it’s on the water) bc we have a 40% Chinese population and it’s mainly Cantonese, I grew up eating a lot of rly good Chinese food bc my mom is from Hong Kong but she is British so I guess she misses it and knows all the food stuff to order and make, I have rly good memories of my mom making me congee when I have stomach aches or I’m sick with chicken in it and now I order it or make it all the time. I am going to Hong Kong for the first time over Xmas because my grandpa still lives there with my step grandma who is Chinese and I’m rly excited to see where my mom grew up and also just to see Hong Kong in general. I find dim sum restaurants here are called seafood restaurants maybe to get white people to come or bc we have lots of seafood on the west coast so they serve a lot of crab and shrimp etc.
It's surprisingly common myth about no real/good Chinese food in US. Go to San Francisco Chinatown there'll be about 300-400 restaurants where food is exactly, 100% the same as Hong Kong/Shenzhen - some good, some bad, some perfect. And it's been there for 100 years or more. Go to Orange County Chinese areas - same story - totally real and often amazing Chinese eateries. So maybe not in some Midwest/deep South city but in most populous US state (California) 100% real Chinese food is readily available.
My usual dim sum lunch dishes are shrimp dumpling, spare ribs in black bean sauce, beef cheung fun for just under $10 CAD. And if i'm really hungry, an order of stir fry rice noodle with beef.
For most of my life I stuck to ha gao, siu mai, cheun gyun with meat such as shrimp, and jian dui. I recently tried fried tofu, ham sui gok, and lo bak go . They are pretty good. Chicken feet has too many bones for me.
Ive tried all before...I still dont get the lust of chicken feet (slimy skin and mushy fat underneath) but my wife did make the tripe and it wasnt bad (marinated in baijiu) The egg custard buns are my favorite along with the shrimp
In the Netherlands and Germany we eat cow stomach too, but not just by itself of course (its in a few dishes), then again we eat blood-sausages too,..actually quite nice,...but chicken feet,..ehh no thanks !
Great to see someone who really from western country would like to taste the bizzard chinese food like chiken feet and cow stomach, also i have heard of you tried the cow dump hot pot in Guizhou which really scared me and i would rather die than taste that
For god sake your English accent turned tiny bit like British accent hehe cheers mate I'm in huizhou in funhouse bar with chinese friend he how do you know this place I said because of you mean (you) I show him your vlogs he said your wife she famous in a Chinese media social networks I'm proud of you guys, I'm a guy who met you in Helen's bar haha....
+Wyatt Holtsclaw Might want to check that carefully Wyatt. A couple of years ago BoA sold off their China bank stake and i think there is no more easy/low cost transfers between institutions.
+Wyatt Holtsclaw I will teach you a easy way. U can apply for a visa card in a small local bank, and they can be deposited RMB, you can withdrew $ from any ATM with the logo[银联] or you can go to the Bank of China in America to withdrew money. Hope this will help as I do it in Australia.
Dim sum are small dishes in steamer baskets. Think the Chinese version of Tapas (if you know Spanish cuisine). Wontons are just little fried or steamed bits of dough, like a dumpling. You could have wontons for Dim Sum, but not all Dim Sum dishes are Wontons or Dumplings.
Hey CMilk, you are NOT supposed to enjoy the Egg Custard Bun! In another video with you and Winston, you guys were saying how you don't like the white bun....I think in Cantonese it's called Man Tao. I remember you guys saying it tasted bland. Now all of a sudden, you like it? Is it because Vivi is with you and you don't want to anger her by saying the Egg Custard Bun tastes bland? What do you guys think about the Cheung Fun (sorry i don't know chinese, but I think that's what it's called in cantonese). It's the one with white wrapping around shrimp or beef.
rice roll with shrimp, Haa cheung fan, will be my number 1 forever, everything depends on the shi fu who makes it.texture saltiness sweetness texture of the shrimp, soy sauce recipe quality, steam time. Sorry but if not have mainstream or above Hong Kong quality than it' s not Dim Sum in my opinion. Period
I don't like the texture of the cow stomach It's too chewy for my tastes, but it tastes good. Chicken feet are okay, but like SerpentZA said, it's just skin. I prefer a little meat. I haven't tried the other 3. I'll have to give them a try.
+Daehawk well in old chinese tradition (in the south) pregnant woman have to cut eating certain food to make sure they'll have a healthy baby and watermelon is consider too cold for the baby :p
+Frodokeuh Well, they have a point. I mean look at African American children and their mothers eat nothing but spicy chicken and watermelon. Perhaps there is a connection there? God rascism is hilarious
Western people call everything dumpling,,,,,thats just wrong. 1. 包子(baozi) 2. 饺子(jiaozi)=dumpling 3. 馄饨 (huntun) 4. 生煎(shengjian) 5. 烧卖(shaomai) These are somewhat similar, but not quite the same.
The you have bad translations, ray. Baozi is bun, not dumpling. Jiaozi is truly dumpling. Shengjian is pot sticker. Shaomai is a Cantonese dim sum dish just just leave it at that. Hundun is wonton.
ive had them all id say shrimp 1 xiao long bao 2 custard 3 ox stomach 4 chicken 5 but the gap between 4 and 5 is huge. the taste on the chicken feet isnt that bad but the texture and how annoying and difficult it is to eat just turn me off of it.
Cow stomach has an awful texture! Chicken feet are bony skin nonsense but Xiao Long Bao are awesome! ;) Nice video bro
+serpentza this one was good! thanks man!!!
+laowhy86 I cannot believe you guys skipped siu mai （燒賣）！also, traditional dim sum places don't serve xiao long bao, at least I've never been to one in HK and Macau that serves them.

+MrNaichwersonst that means a lot! thanks so much!

You guys are so cool together. Great content. Keep it up.
+TVCanT thanks mate!w
Always dig the food vids!
HAHA Vivi's face when you dropped the xia jiao -- priceless! You two are adorable together.

+Snarky White Guy only the dim sum chicken feet are good. i dont like the others haha
laowhy86
Maybe I'll give it a whirl.
Love the chicken feet. Friend of mine introduced me to it in Toronto along with Cantonese har gow.
I never had those custard filled ones, ill try that next time I get dim sum. I guess you can say most mainstream dim sum is Shu Mai in the States/Canada.

Dim Sum is my all time favourite food. (Alongside curry and Cornish Pasties, heh !)
Yes, I loved this episode!

As a foodie, do more food stuff! I'm sure you have a wide audience, but it helps when you and your wife relate it to western food!
It's surprisingly common myth about no real/good Chinese food in US.

+Eric Z yeah, I can't wait to get over there! Thanks for the tip!
I want to see you eating a "Dim Sim", an Australian dumpling invented by a Chinese immigrant.
My usual dim sum lunch dishes are shrimp dumpling, spare ribs in black bean sauce, beef cheung fun for just under $10 CAD. And if i'm really hungry, an order of stir fry rice noodle with beef.
syncmaster915n where in canada r u from if u don’t mind me asking
Dude- no 5 second rule with the baby food, V is going to be watching you like a hawk after that move with the shrimp dumpling. Haahaa
eggplant with stuffed fish+shrimp paste with black bean sauce. try that!
As a Chinese, I never tried chicken feet before. lol. but all my families love it.
Man i couldnt stomach some of this stuff but it looks interesting. Cool video
For most of my life I stuck to ha gao, siu mai, cheun gyun with meat such as shrimp, and jian dui. I recently tried fried tofu, ham sui gok, and lo bak go . They are pretty good. Chicken feet has too many bones for me.
One of my favorite dim sum is Shrimp Dumbling and it's rank no. 1.
Always gotta have a couple orders of spare ribs with black beans at dim sum.
Ive tried all before...I still dont get the lust of chicken feet (slimy skin and mushy fat underneath) but my wife did make the tripe and it wasnt bad (marinated in baijiu)
The egg custard buns are my favorite along with the shrimp

Can you get Netflix in China? Or access torrent sites?
do you still do subscriber visits?
I like to try some but I think it is difficult to find in my country, and If I would find it somewhere, i'm afraid it would not taste like yours.
what makes those things 'Dim Sum" is it just steam cooked dishes?
Vivi is soo cute, don't worry C-Milk I find you attractive too in some nohomo way. ^^
+Jandor Captain awwwww ;)
shrimp dumplings must be 5-star
I love shrimp dumplings, chicken feet and basically every dim sum there is. Btw, I'm Chinese
bad bad milk I am drooling now
sui mai and har guar. in that order.
what! no bean curd? thats my favorite. wondering it if exists in china. might also go by tofu skin. or... you know, an actual chinese name.
Good job!
+Dallas Powwi thanks!
For god sake your English accent turned tiny bit like British accent hehe cheers mate I'm in huizhou in funhouse bar with chinese friend he how do you know this place I said because of you mean (you) I show him your vlogs he said your wife she famous in a Chinese media social networks I'm proud of you guys, I'm a guy who met you in Helen's bar haha....
+Ben Smain awesome dude! is she famous in Chinese social media? do you have any examples?
i don't know it's one of my chinese friends said that i need ask him hehehe;;;;
nice! Can you do an episode on Chinese eating American Chinese food? I heard the American Chinese version is almost none existent in China
+DizDng you got it
It's temping for me to watch this video in England! They got nothing to eat except chip and fish! I miss Xiao Long Bao!
Retarded comment dude. Open your eyes or google it, there are Dim Sum restaurants all over England.
Can you please do a video on changing RMB into dollars to send home? Can you just deposit RMB at a China Construction Bank into your BofA account?
+Wyatt Holtsclaw Might want to check that carefully Wyatt. A couple of years ago BoA sold off their China bank stake and i think there is no more easy/low cost transfers between institutions.
+Wyatt Holtsclaw I will teach you a easy way. U can apply for a visa card in a small local bank, and they can be deposited RMB, you can withdrew $ from any ATM with the logo[银联] or you can go to the Bank of China in America to withdrew money. Hope this will help as I do it in Australia.
What's the difference between dim sum and wontons?
Dim sum are small dishes in steamer baskets. Think the Chinese version of Tapas (if you know Spanish cuisine). Wontons are just little fried or steamed bits of dough, like a dumpling. You could have wontons for Dim Sum, but not all Dim Sum dishes are Wontons or Dumplings.
Marlissa Cunningham Okay, that makes sense. Thank you for your reply!

I love it all but i only like man tou if it is filled with something. The egg custard bun without the egg custard is boring!
lol i can see the camera guy reflected from the mirror
Do they eat ant eggs because I like ant egg tacos
Id try the shrimp dumpling and the custard bun. I make damn good custard from scratch. . But thats it..eww :)
I love 牛雜!
KrisPy NuT Sorry, I'm not him.
度不起，我不是他。

did your wife cut eating certain food since she's pregnant?
like watermelon or really spicy things ^^
+Frodokeuh Whats wrong with watermellon?
+Daehawk well in old chinese tradition (in the south) pregnant woman have to cut eating certain food to make sure they'll have a healthy baby and watermelon is consider too cold for the baby :p
Frodokeuh
lol!
+Frodokeuh Well, they have a point. I mean look at African American children and their mothers eat nothing but spicy chicken and watermelon. Perhaps there is a connection there?
God rascism is hilarious
+Frodokeuh nope. she doesn't follow any chinese medical traditions.
Vivi is soo cute，hahahaha
Is there any talk about Donald Trump in China? I'd love to know! Thanks
+Travis L nope
yes， if know me and my friends
Western people call everything dumpling,,,,,thats just wrong.
1. 包子(baozi)
2. 饺子(jiaozi)=dumpling
3. 馄饨 (huntun)
4. 生煎(shengjian)
5. 烧卖(shaomai)
These are somewhat similar, but not quite the same.
+UncleChan And the translation for all of them is "dumpling"
They are different types of dumplings, but are still all dumplings
The you have bad translations, ray. Baozi is bun, not dumpling. Jiaozi is truly dumpling. Shengjian is pot sticker. Shaomai is a Cantonese dim sum dish just just leave it at that. Hundun is wonton.
Dumpling....Yes.....The other No....Either way I have to take a Dump
ive had them all id say shrimp 1 xiao long bao 2 custard 3 ox stomach 4 chicken 5 but the gap between 4 and 5 is huge. the taste on the chicken feet isnt that bad but the texture and how annoying and difficult it is to eat just turn me off of it.
come to the bay area its one of the best places for Real Chinese food. Most Chinese food in America is not real Chinese food.
hong kong dim sum is better than dim sum in china. also, most dim sum places in canada are much better than restaurants in china. reason? ingredients
Nah mate, you gotta bite into the whole xiaolongbao at once and let it spill in your mouth. Maybe just leave it to cool a bit first.
chiken feet skin is the best
First!
No way I could eat the cow stomach yuck. The Bao looks good but I don't like custard double yuck!
Learn some Cantonese！
why why why eat the feet you have the whole chicken why do yow choose to eat the feet yuck
first
Okay +laowhy86 What's up with Chow Mein? Especially Chicken Chow Mein!!! I can't live without it!!! Hahaha!!
