I just realized one thing unique about your videos -- you provide closure for the audience. Something many TH-camrs fail to do. For instance, you go to the park and it was not as you expected so you decided to return to the park the next day to record footage of it to see if the park has changed. That's really satisfying for the audience to see. Well done!
She even provided closure on not getting the 'twirl' right the first two times when dancing with the shushu; the third time, she nailed it. 😄 Great channel.
I am currently going through chemotherapy to treat cancer and your videos have helped so much when I'm feeling sick. Thanks for making so many amazing videos ❤️ Edit: thanks so much for all the sweet messages it means the world to me
Amy, you are single handedly educating me of my heritage, and thank you for that. My Heritage is mostly Chinese, born in Malaysia and migrated to Oz when I was very young. Every time I visit China I am just in awe of the history of the place. Keep up the good work! and the two of you are magic together.
I think Malaysian Chinese culture and China's culture and regional cultures are still quite different, especially our system. If you have lived in China, there is a certain aspect of communism. I still remember my primary school text book in the Chinese school system. Some of the text are about as communist as it gets like 'Lenin' for instance and 'The Great March', others are about famous Chinese writers like Lu Xun. Some of my childhood Chinese TV Programms are Monkey Magic and Feng Sheng Bang. There are a lot of foreign dubbed TV programs like Transformers, Ninja Turtles, DoraAmon and some other animes. There are also TV programs from Taiwan like Qiong Yao series etc. So it's a very interesting combo. From my perspective, Malaysian Chinese has preserved some regional culture from Canton, Min district and Hakka. They came to Malaysia back in the 19th Century. Therefore in some aspects, it's a little dated (in my opinion), which I find it very exotic as well. But then again Amy knows much more about all the different areas of Chinese culture, so in some way, I am learning from her.
Jasmine complements Amy so well -- the shared sense of humor and depth of knowledge in the food. Thanks Amy for history snippet of Shanghai Longtong vs Beijing Hutong.
Shanghai born Aussie here. The fried pork chop, fried eel and shrimp are all very nostalgia dishes for me, I’m glad you got to try them! Next time you order the fried pork chop, try dipping it in 辣酱油 (Shanghainese Worcestershire sauce), which is the traditional condiment to serve it with, although ketchup works as well. 😄
The amount of time and effort that went into making this wonderful video deserves much appreciation. At the end…you’re like the Cupid from afar shooting not only a video but also an arrow to connect the two hearts! 💘 :D
i am addicted to all your videos. im learning so much and taking notes for when i eventually go to china! also jasmine is like the most beautiful woman i have ever seen
Thank you so much for this video. My mother was born in Shanghai’s French quarter and lived there from 1935-1949. Her mother was Russian and her father Eurasian. She loved the city and missed it greatly. Although she’s gone now, I was able to see what the city might have looked like when she lived there. It was very touching.
Blondie has one of the most wonderful attitudes among China YTers I’ve come across. An early morning dose of your video peps me up for the rest of the day. Great work!
I love the ending of the video where you have helped with the fella with setting up the proposal. So heart warming! Thanks for making those amazing videos. Can't wait to visit China when thrle right time comes.
馄饨，鳝丝，油爆虾，复兴公园... I've been living in the US too long. This video really hits a spot and brings back memories. 复兴公园 was my goto park when I was a kid... and all that food... I'm crying and drooling at the same time. Thank you 艾米饭 for posting this one.
The same to me. I'm missing Chinese food I ate at 徐家汇. Most of Chinese restaurants in US cook fake Chinese food like 左宗鸡, 蒙古牛, 柠檬鸡, ... that's killing me.
I miss this. I had all of these growing up over 20 years ago. I moved to Australia when I was 7. My grandma used to make the best stir fry eels but she stir fry it with sliced bamboo shoots and lots of white pepper. It was my favourite growing up.
Hi Amy & Jasmine!🙋🏻♀️ Those authentic wontons, eels and shrimps looked amazing! Would love to try these food in Shanghai some day! Thanks for showing us around the city. What a sweet evening!👰🏻♀️🤵🏻❤️🎉💐
Wife took me to this riverside walk when we visited Shanghai on our honeymoon. I counted no less than 5 different wedding photography sessions going on along the walk. Didn't know about the local specialities so will definitely be trying them the next time we visit.
Appreciate the time and effort made into making these informative but not draggy. Kuddos for also having both English and Chinese subtitles. My compentency for the latter has plateaued over the years so watching a bilingual vlog and subtitles has been very helpful. Also, may I ask what camera and editing software you're using? 😊
With these dishes, it really brings you back in time to old Shanghai, as well as memories. Also, congratulations to Miss Jasmine on her wedding purposal.
Definitely wanna go back to Shanghai soon and make a video just about Benbangcai (homestyle shanghai food), I'm super intrigued now I've had a small sample of it!
The shrimp dish looks great. I wonder if they taste something like the fresh water shrimp in Suzhou which are served without shells. Miss China so much. Amy keeps me in touch! Thanks Amy for the great videos which I can tell involved lots of post production.
It's always great to hear you speak putonghua, because you speak it so well. We can tell how delighted the Chinese people around you are when they hear your nearly unaccented putonghua. But it's a total TRIP to hear you break out actual Shanghainese and chat with the people of Shanghai in their own dialect!! This is so GREAT! BTW, you have to stop including Jasmine in your videos. She is SO beautiful, so sweet, so well spoken, and has such a glowing personality, that we viewers often find ourselves mesmerized and we forget we are watching a vlog about Shanghai, or China, or anywhere else. I just find myself staring slack-jawed at Jasmine, totally blown away by this girl who glows with beauty, inside and out. Get rid of her NOW, haha. Otherwise people would ask me if I have ever seen a vlog about Shanghai, and I would just shake my head blankly and say, "I don't know. I might have...There was Blondie and this beautiful Chinese girl...but I remember nothing else".
Next time you are in the region, you have to try 醉蟹！It’s raw crab marinated in shaoxing wine. I know you are adventurous with your food so why not try raw crabs! It’s actually super delicious and one of my all time favourite foods!
The sauteed eel is a quintessential Shanghai dish, as is Shanghai style wonton and "drunk" chicken. The fried pork and sauteed eel are also used as toppings for bowls of plain thin noodles in soup, often served on a separate dish to retain the texture.
it's all grouped into Shanghai label now, but 炒鳝糊 is from Suzhou and 醉鸡/花雕鸡 is obviously from Shaoxing. So much of Shanghai's food are immigrant food from nearby regions. There's an alternate version of stirfried eel from Hangzhou specific for noodles called Shrimp flash fried eel 虾爆鳝面 which originated from a shop in Hangzhou called 奎元馆(Kui Yuan Guan) on Jiefang Road. They also make a great 片儿川 (winter bamboo shoots slices, snow vegetables, and shredded pork) noodles.
I really love the last ending where the couple got together. Thanks for the nice catch. All the remaining aspects are just tremendous, especially you and Jasmine enjoying the food together.
There's literally a 0% chance you're german when you say it's missing lingonberry jam lmao that is absolutely the least german thing ever to go with Schnitzel
@@friedrichtheodor3069 In austria, which isn't germany. Maybe in some parts of bavaria, but it's certainly not common in germany, I'd even call it unheard of unless you're somewhere in the very south of germany. Source: I've lived in the north, west and south, my eastern german friend almost gagged at the thought of having Preiselbeeren/lingonberry jam with schnitzel and my austrian friend doesn't understand what our issue is.
It all looks great. With small deep fried prawns personally I would pop the whole thing in, head, shell, tail and all. Popcorn shrimp! When deep fried the shell just becomes a lovely crisp texture and also you are not peeling off the seasoning. Sesame sauce on wontons is amazing. Sesame has such a wonderful flavour - nutty and fragrant. Great on noodles, as part of a hot pot dip, even in a salad dressing. I love your energy and your preparation for these videos - it makes the food seem very accessible for those who might not have anything like it before. I also love that you take your parents to exciting restaurants. When your dad said that some people on their guided tour in China had never had chili or even garlic before it makes me realize how very lucky I am to love and explore all kinds of food - would be willing to try most things at least once. To me the food is the best way to experience a culture. You don't even need to speak the language - having delicious food amongst the locals is so great. Just point at what someone is having that looks great and give it a shot. Keep it up!
Amy, I watched every episode of your channel. I love it. You’re adventurous and open-minded and interesting. I especially like enjoying your video while I am eating on my own，which makes me felt companied, relaxing，good appetite 🤣, as well as learning more about the authentic culture of food. The thing is every time you have friends or family jointed with you, the vibe is more vibrant and lovely! Keep it if you enjoyed it too! And the chemistry between you and Jasmine explained in Chinese is 动静结合～ Nice combo.
Looks like I know what I am going to do this weekend ! Thanks for displaying the different addresses :) I hope to see more Shanghai related videos in the future. There are so many things to do here that this type of content helps out a lot !
I can really feel Jasmine's libra vibe hahaha. One question: what was that beautiful fluffy hand at minute 4:53? I really liked that initiative OMG it's so creative. And lastly! thanks for the little details in these new videos (the pinyin and the characters on the dishes is really nice stuff).
Thank you for visiting my home town :D i get to experience things vicariously through you. been waiting for 3 years to go back home. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
The last clip of the marriage proposal reminded me of the last trip I had to Shanghai 4 years ago, walking on the bund one random morning, there were at least a dozen to 15 wedding picture shoots… a place of love
Eel fish, fried shrimp are also my favourite, and 4 happiness wheat gluten( kaofu) is another must try for me. As Ben Bang cuisines always come with large amount of soy sauce and sugar, you can take some of them as snacks. I remember when I was little my dad took me to Shanghai to visit friends , Huan he ( yellow river) road and Za Pu road were where we always had dinners at. A lotta old fashioned western style 2-3 storey town houses that remodelled into those delicate restaurants, serving authentic Shanghai cuisines. Such a perfect blend of east and west.
Amy!! I envy you what a n incredibly educational video. Thank you sooo much. What a beautiful video!! Thank you so much Amy, you have brightened my day here in Dallas.
Apart from her astounding beauty, the thing I love about Jasmine is her personality and how down to earth and amusing she is!!! Perfect combination!! Obvious that I’m totally infatuated with her!!!help
@@Khalistan_Zindabaddd luckily we are not in lockdown (yet), although we are due to be moving apartments in a couple of weeks so I’m hoping all lockdowns ease by then otherwise I’ll be stuck haha!
One of the best videos I have seen on your channel. From the marriage proposals to you following up on the shanghai park. You have such a wholesome content. Please keep videos like this rolling and show the real experiences in China.
Many highlights in your vlog. Your Shanghainese has character and adds to the humour. The longtang mall's interesting. Thanks for including these little places of interest. Having left Shanghai as a child, I'm doing my homework on where to go for my return.
That’s so interesting, especially 2pretty girls introduce some very traditional food of Shanghai, I am really enjoying this video & makes me want to visit there some day 😊
You gotta love quality content and complementary beauty as a special guest. The interaction between you two bring smiles to many of us. You girls are so funny! Keep it up!
Good stuff mate, keep the videos coming! Watching from Melbourne and waiting for more travel restrictions to be lifted so I can visit some family in Shanghai. I thought the key difference between the big and small wontons, for Shanghainese people at least, was that the small wontons were more of a complimentary dish to other things such as Xiao Long Bao and you really just ordered them to drink the soup they're in, whereas the big wontons were more of a main dish per se.
Wow, that is the neighborhood that I came from 30 some years ago. It is very well presented, what a lovely job. By the way, the Shanghai Schnitzels usually go with Lai Jiang You (Chinese version of Worcestershire sauce:). Otherwise, the pork could be at dry side.
people may not realise but Jasmine's makeup and hair probably took 2 hours 🤭🤭🤭or at least 1 hour if she is super quick. So she probably woke up just as early.
This made me miss Shanghai so much! Hope you get to try more benbangcai, it’s really good. There’s a couple famous establishments at Jinxian Lu, but always hard to get a table
thanks for sharing a bit of shanghai! my grandma would make the eel dish for me. she would add onions to it! i remember going to the markets to get the eel and see the vendors prepping the eel. :)
Wow, you are at my hometown that I cannot return to at this moment. Deep fried pork chops must go with 泰康牌辣酱油 (similar to Worcestershire sauce)! Shanghai style egg pancake is called '包脚布‘。 The major difference between 包脚布 and 煎饼 is batter. Jianbing uses mung bean batter and Shanghainese use plain flour more.
Those strange paintings in the wonton restaurant are recreations of John Currin paintings. And that's very, very odd; John Currin is a provocative and polarizing contemporary figurative painter from the US.
Thank you for making this amazing video. I feel so home sick, and hopefully I can visit the place I grew up once covid situation gets better in Shanghai.
Glad I found you. As a non China chinese, I can't make out half of their diverse slang and saturated dialects. I learnt more stuffed cuisine every day. Thank you
Thank you for the amazing video!! My girlfriend and I just came to Shanghai for holidays and went to every single one of the places you visited. I can confirm they are all amazing!! 😍 Quick request: would you mind considering Wenzhou as one of the next stops in your food vlog trip? It’s where my girlfriend is from and it has some really unique and delicious dishes (a lot of seafood) so would love to see a video of your reaction after trying them. Thanks again for the hard work!!
Been following your channel the past weeks. Really enjoy it. Just 2 quick requests if you can: 1. Come back to Cebu and savor at least our real top Cebuano dishes like lechon, balbacua, ngohiong, larang and more. 2. More of Jasmine too please. Haven’t seen her in your new vids. Keep on keeping on.
Funny thing is, my family, with my dad from shandong and my mom from beijing, and living in America, makes big wonton sized small wontons. (To simplify that, bigger sized wontons in a soup). I always thought only medium sized wontons existed in soup form. I knew we usually made them bigger than usual since it's hand made so the size doesn't stay consistent. Although you said they usually take 2 bites, I love eating them in one. We don't have it often since it's time consuming, so I eat those things like I've been starved for days. Sometimes I do regret it because it's such a huge bite and I can't resist laughing, but my mouth is absolutely full...
One of the key differences between big wontons and small wontons is the wrapping style, apart from the size, thickness of the wrapper, and diversity of the stuffing.
I just realized one thing unique about your videos -- you provide closure for the audience. Something many TH-camrs fail to do. For instance, you go to the park and it was not as you expected so you decided to return to the park the next day to record footage of it to see if the park has changed.

12:22 It's great to see the Fuxing Park twice in the video and watch Amy dancing with locals!
@@jasonyeh787 Absolutely, that was so wholesome!

One of the best videos I have seen on your channel. From the marriage proposals to you following up on the shanghai park. You have such a wholesome content. Please keep videos like this rolling and show the real experiences in China.
Many highlights in your vlog. Your Shanghainese has character and adds to the humour. The longtang mall's interesting. Thanks for including these little places of interest. Having left Shanghai as a child, I'm doing my homework on where to go for my return.
That’s so interesting, especially 2pretty girls introduce some very traditional food of Shanghai, I am really enjoying this video & makes me want to visit there some day 😊
Oh, Jasmine is so adorable!
I’m so glad she said yes.
All the dishes you tried look delicious.😋
You gotta love quality content and complementary beauty as a special guest. The interaction between you two bring smiles to many of us. You girls are so funny! Keep it up!
I can’t get enough of Jasmine. She is divine.
Good stuff mate, keep the videos coming! Watching from Melbourne and waiting for more travel restrictions to be lifted so I can visit some family in Shanghai. I thought the key difference between the big and small wontons, for Shanghainese people at least, was that the small wontons were more of a complimentary dish to other things such as Xiao Long Bao and you really just ordered them to drink the soup they're in, whereas the big wontons were more of a main dish per se.
又是一见钟情💘的Jasmine 😍 that sesame sauce with Fried pork cutlet looks awesomely delicious 🎉
This is so sweet! Love Shanghai! And love your vids as always!
Wow! Amy your Shanghainese sounds authentic to me! You're really talented in languages!👍
Wow, that is the neighborhood that I came from 30 some years ago. It is very well presented, what a lovely job. By the way, the Shanghai Schnitzels usually go with Lai Jiang You (Chinese version of Worcestershire sauce:). Otherwise, the pork could be at dry side.
people may not realise but Jasmine's makeup and hair probably took 2 hours 🤭🤭🤭or at least 1 hour if she is super quick. So she probably woke up just as early.
This made me miss Shanghai so much! Hope you get to try more benbangcai, it’s really good. There’s a couple famous establishments at Jinxian Lu, but always hard to get a table
Soooo sweet of you to volunteer yourself to be the videographer for the couple!
蛋饼 and 煎饼 are essentially the same thing, only different names and slightly different fillings depending on where you're getting it.
thanks for sharing a bit of shanghai! my grandma would make the eel dish for me. she would add onions to it! i remember going to the markets to get the eel and see the vendors prepping the eel. :)
Hi, as someone who's been studying abroad and haven't gone back home for a year bc of covid, this really made me sentimental. thank you:)
Amy back in Shanghai, it feels so right. How I miss it so much.
Wow, you are at my hometown that I cannot return to at this moment. Deep fried pork chops must go with 泰康牌辣酱油 (similar to Worcestershire sauce)! Shanghai style egg pancake is called '包脚布‘。 The major difference between 包脚布 and 煎饼 is batter. Jianbing uses mung bean batter and Shanghainese use plain flour more.
Those strange paintings in the wonton restaurant are recreations of John Currin paintings. And that's very, very odd; John Currin is a provocative and polarizing contemporary figurative painter from the US.
Thank you for making this amazing video. I feel so home sick, and hopefully I can visit the place I grew up once covid situation gets better in Shanghai.
lol, I like the end part. 'I love love'.
"My heart is so full" - Blondie in China. Loved this episode.
Glad I found you. As a non China chinese, I can't make out half of their diverse slang and saturated dialects. I learnt more stuffed cuisine every day. Thank you
Thank you for the amazing video!! My girlfriend and I just came to Shanghai for holidays and went to every single one of the places you visited. I can confirm they are all amazing!! 😍
Quick request: would you mind considering Wenzhou as one of the next stops in your food vlog trip? It’s where my girlfriend is from and it has some really unique and delicious dishes (a lot of seafood) so would love to see a video of your reaction after trying them.
Thanks again for the hard work!!
"I love love" that is the best quotes by Amy❤❤❤
Been following your channel the past weeks. Really enjoy it. Just 2 quick requests if you can: 1. Come back to Cebu and savor at least our real top Cebuano dishes like lechon, balbacua, ngohiong, larang and more. 2. More of Jasmine too please. Haven’t seen her in your new vids. Keep on keeping on.
So great video! Freid port chop has its own sauce which is the only one in Shanghai -泰康黄牌辣酱油
A proposal at the end...that couple has no idea how many people our about to see this on your channel, lucky couple.
IF they open up more flights to Shanghai next year. I'm going! Love my hometown!
as a Chinese,watching your video makes me feel relaxed and chill.Wish one day I could see you in chongqing!
Ah thats so cute in the end... congrats to them...and also Hai from Indonesia ...
Hi!!! Would love to explore Indonesia more in the future!
Thank you for the park, I grew up there every weekend. Can't describe how much I miss it.
Funny thing is, my family, with my dad from shandong and my mom from beijing, and living in America, makes big wonton sized small wontons. (To simplify that, bigger sized wontons in a soup). I always thought only medium sized wontons existed in soup form. I knew we usually made them bigger than usual since it's hand made so the size doesn't stay consistent. Although you said they usually take 2 bites, I love eating them in one. We don't have it often since it's time consuming, so I eat those things like I've been starved for days. Sometimes I do regret it because it's such a huge bite and I can't resist laughing, but my mouth is absolutely full...
I always love the vibes you're giving.
What a great way to cap off the end of the video-with the beginning of a hopefully long and happy marriage. Thank you!
Big wonton in shanghai traditionally has veggies and meat as the filling, small wonton is usually pure meat.
Omg Amy you have such a soul actually going back to see if dancing is still there. And jasmine was bullshiting saying that old people go to clubs lol
old people do both clubs and dancing in a park !
饺子皮跟馄饨皮不是一个东西，然后炸猪排要跟辣酱油一起吃😊
One of the key differences between big wontons and small wontons is the wrapping style, apart from the size, thickness of the wrapper, and diversity of the stuffing.
The houses you showed in the beginning are indeed typical 弄堂， but definitely not typical 石库门 like you mentioned.
ooh ok noted! I'll do some more research on this!
Love every minute of this video :) Thanks Amy😍
