Hi Mark. I am so glad you tried authentic Chinese food in China. They must be very different from the Chinese cuisines in the US.
By the way, are you planning to visit Beijing and try traditional Beijing food If you do and you don't have a tour guide yet, I am more than glad to be the person. I am native Beijinger and I can speak fluent English. So I can interpret you all the interesting history and fascinating anecdotes about traditional Beijing food.
Please contact me if you would like to.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.

Malatung, hot pot, and barbecue kebab don't need highly experienced cooks, customers even do the cooking themselves. Street food is ruining traditional chinese cuisine art. Cooks used to take years of training and highly regarded for excellence. Some dishes took hours if not days to prepare and the maximum taste only last an hour or less. The beautiful art is being lost by the convenience focused younger generations.

how are you eating so much and staying in good shape! I need that secrete North West food is really my favorite, in ShanXi Datong the food is AMAZING as well. And a lot less well known. Just getting a bit popular amongst Chinese tourist now, but completely out of the radar for foreigners. The pallet is similar to XiAn, but with its own twist. Just delicious, if you get a chance you should go try.

Here are my thoughts on chill and spice as a European. It kills flavour! More chilli is not better, it is worse. Chilli and other spices can create a warming or numbing affect on the palette and amplify the experience when eating food. It needs to be added in moderation to meet the palette of your customer. Extra chilli and spice is an excuse for bad cooking and bad flavour.

I love your phrase goofy liquid. Notice how cheap food is compared to the USA, Mark paid. 86 Cents for a whole meal like a Chinese Brurrito/Pita and here it would begin at $5. 00 toppings.
I love the belt noodle idea, will have the wife make some soon.
Table side carving service using a regular bread & butter knife is so Chinese because they have no clue LOL

What is your experience in China regarding food safety Certain regions are known to be pretty terrible. Reusing hot pot oil (i. e. spit oil, or fishing out fat from sewers without proper treatment and using it.

Mark is a great role model, always demonstrating major gratitude for food and hospitality no matter how far removed from one's upbringing. Who knew internet could be thoroughly positive and yet still engaging This deserves to be recognized and emulated more.

Hi Mark I do enjoy your videos, how come you never have anything negative about the food you eat while travelling. I do understand it’s promotional. Well inside your there could be some food or something in the food you dislike

Just like the last video, everything looked amazing. Once again, those noodles looked incredible. I'm glad you mentioned hot and sour soup during the first meal, that's exactly what I was thinking when I saw it, haha. Thanks Mark!

I lived for a few months in Shenzhen in 2005 and I can still remember how delicious all of the food there was. Love Chinese food with Sichuan pepper and chilli oil. And the street food/restaurant food is quite affordable too.

$. 56 for 5 dumplings Anyone else watching this in the west just feel like we're getting cheated with our extreme high cost of living Then people argue that's because they're less developed. but wait, less developed in what.

Thank you Michael for taking Mark and Ying to these amazing food places in Xi'an. I really thought the Gourd chicken was going to be cooked with a gourd. The Biang, Biang noodles looked delicious

We dined at the biang biang noodle place you visited in the video. We loved it so much that we went back to it twice in 2 days. Xi’an knows how to make delicious noodles for sure!

For Muslims, China is actually a very easy place to visit in terms of food. Halal restaurants are very common and clearly marked so you won’t be concerned about what you’re eating.

Why are his eyes so sparkly It is very pretty and not a bad thing at all, but it has this teary-eyed wet look to them. Came here for the food tour but it was really noticeable.

The best bowl of noodles was number 3, the noodles worked together perfectly with all of the different ingredients to give you the perfect texture and flavor you want.
