Finger licking good. What part of Calgary are you from?
It is pity that nobody natives are accompanying you guys around - because you guys haven’t tasted 1% of the Shanghai food. There’re plenty small local food stalls in the alleyways that serve cheap and authentic Shanghai cuisines or snacks. Being in China first time is hard for the foreigners to understand the vast variety of Chinese cuisines.
Unfortunately I am not in Shanghai right now, but I am sure you have fans who is able to volunteer.
Why not to try the normal shanghai restaurant? It’s not expensive.
来来来，我来做一日导游😂😂😂
@@cloudzhang9533 I think the menu will be a challenge for the tourists who don’t know the language, specially translating some dishes in the Chinese name is scary 😂. For example hairy crabs (大闸蟹）, beggar’s chick （叫花鸡）, three yellow chicken （三黄鸡）, chick duck blood soup (鸡鸭血汤）, foot wrapping pancake (包脚布）, Field Chick （田鸡）(aka frog 🐸!!!!!!) and Lion Head meatballs （狮子头） etc.
Btw anyone translates 童子鸡 for me - the worst I have seen is “Chicken not have sexual activity” or the best “virgin Chicken” 😂.
上海的东西贵的要死，要吃美食还是得去四川和重庆
"It's a different experience" and "Something new". Steve's very diplomatic way of saying he doesn't like something ;)
Love from India 🇮🇳 towards China 🇨🇳 🤍💙🤍
OMG you two are so cute, open-minded, kind to others, we need more people like you!!
that camera on that cashier's computer is to scan your QR code for payment. That chicken you got at the end is actually a cold dish so it was supposed to be that temperature. The tingly sensation comes from oil infused with sichuan peppers. If you don't like that taste, perhaps avoid sichuan in a future trip. But do try the north of China, very different food, not too spicy, not too sweet.
Ohhh.. dongbei food. Criminally under represented in the west.
Jian bing guo zi is the best. Hands down.
Di san xian. Sooo good. Cannot have enough jiao zi.
I’m in Canada right now, watching you guys eat Chinese food does bring me home a bit lol
This dumpling is actually called “crab Huang“ soup dumpling, which contains crab meat and crab roe. Whether you like it or not depends on whether you like to eat hairy crabs😋😋😋
Actually it is not roe (eggs). It is crab red (solid fat) and crab yellow (semi solid fat). My most favorite dumpling and noodle.
take you politic somewhere else. this about travel and enjoy life in different countries and cultures. Don’t ruin it with your stupid comments
The chinese pancake called jiang xiang bing .You can find it in any city of China,local people also love it a lot !The topping sauce in Jiangxiangbing made Made from ingredients such as onions, scallions, sesame, etc., it is very fragrant！❤🎉😂
土家酱香饼😋
This is 葱油饼Cong you bing，it's local Shanghai cuisine
Thanks! Nice episode!
Thank you Valentin!😁
Thanks for this donation! It really helps us. :D
All looks yummy!! Keep safe, healthy and happy.
you guys amazing. nice video
Love your videos! im going for a 5 days trip to shanghai next friday. looking forward to it :)
21:45, it is indeed pickled vegetable, aka 梅干菜, which is considered a good combination with the pork belly you were eating.
The foods in this video look incredibly delicious! It's great to see you all enjoying yourselves in Shanghai. Plus. At 22:00 how lucky that you guys just have walked into a stall that was even featured in the cuisine documentary 'A Bite of China'! 😋
The soup bun is so funny to drink and eat, hahaha...lots of yummy foods there, and my mouth is watering...
28:00 green mochi is called "Ching Tuan". that food shop/restaurant is well known, located on the famous Nanjing Road at the heart of Shanghai. I went to that restaurant eeverytime I visited Shanghai.
Hi Ivana and Steve! Love your Chinese travel videos A LOT!! I hope to translate one part for you for that fried chicken/ potato clip, the cashier was asking you to scan to pay for the 2 combo meals ^^ She definitely did not mean to have you two look into any camera or anything lol! have fun in China!!
21:49 that’s a type of pickled vegetable very common in the south. We often cook it with pork or fish, it add flavor and umami to the meat, especially the aroma
8:08 that's pickled mustard, my favourite. btw, that's Braised Beef Noodle with Pickled Mustard that you ordered.
21:33 Ivana's is Braised Pork Belly with preserved /dried Chinese mustard
33:01 that's Borscht soup.
37:29 all i can say is >>> the portion is HUGE!!!!! i definitely can't finish one bowl by myself. gosh...
37:29 is ChongQing “ little ” noodle.
@@xbing1722 骗很大~ 这是哪小了啊~🤣
重庆小面啊@@weeeee8232
Hi Steve & Ivana,
I know both of you are seasoned travelers and very good at food vlogs. My opinion is that it'll be much better if you were to get a local food guide in Shanghai (or most of China at least for the first day or so as) it will enable you to understand the country better especially on the cultural aspects and also the way certain food must be eaten. It would have added extra quality ro the already impressive content you've been putting out.
I think their problem is they have no intention of learning even just the basic local language, it won't take long time to grab some words about price and numbers. Not just throw out English to everyone in NON anglo-saxon countries, although many young people can speak English in China. I am surprised that they are Canadians, they behaviour like rude old style of American tourists
A lot of this is what people eat on a daily basis. You don't have to try out always the most representative / posh dishes.
@@y.w.79 It's good to experience what people eat daily, and it's also good to understand how to eat it and why it's served in a certain way. For example how to eat soup dumplings, and why the chicken is not served hot, or "who comes to a basketball game to eat a piece of bread?". Having someone guide you through it instead of approaching it through a western perspective is incredibly useful and confidence building. If you're in Shanghai, you're missing out if you don't know where to get the food that represents the culture of the city. You can find generic almost anywhere.
@@keighbee appreciate the comment, agreed that it’s meaningful to have a deeper understanding of
先赞后看，好习惯😂沙发
您对酱香饼真的是真爱啊 :-)
In fact, I want to say that the really delicious food is hidden in the alley. In a highly international city like Shanghai, many foods have lost their traditional characteristics. Chinese people won‘t even buy it. The best way is to ask the locals for advice, but it may be a little difficult for foreigners.
That camera on the street food counter is for scanning your Alypay code to pay the bill cashlessly. NOT for recording your big face.
If you are interested in learning about China's progress and history, please provide some travel advice:
If you want to explore 3,000 years of history, go to Xi'an.
If you want to explore 1,000 years of history, go to Beijing.
If you want to explore 100 years of China from colonization to modernization, you can go to Shanghai.
If you want to see a city plan built on a mountain with modern infrastructure. For the dream city built in 40 years, let's go to Chongqing.
If you want to see the future, go to Shenzhen.
This is a very rough and comprehensive statement. If we continue to add the different natural landscapes and biomes provided by China, the list will be endless, because China is very large, with too many beautiful places and many beautiful cities and natural landscapes.
What is the best of all this? No matter where you go in China, as long as it is where people live, you are absolutely safe! You are free to explore!
China is safe 24 hours a day, bars and various entertainment venues are open 24 hours a day, and restaurants are open 24 hours a day! Don't worry about being shot🇨🇳
29:20. I had the same 2 sweets about 2 months ago. This restaurant is famous for these things. They have several locations.
Thank you to visit China as a really true experience as a visitor without any other special plan, so that people can know and see the real China, most of things are good, somethings are bad. I got an Canada Visa last week and want to visit Canada.
瑞幸咖啡太甜了，感觉类似于奶茶，我喜欢
the 5 star one is called rib & rice cake (actually pork chop not rib). the soup is the Chinese version of borsch, in which they use cabbage instead of beetroot
This aunty who sells the sticky rice stuff has a natural language skill. 😊
OMG, as a Chinese person, chillin' at my place in Beijing watching your vids, you totally made me order some sauce-flavored pancakes and chive buns delivery.
lots of food, might try some of them out some time in future
22:00 the dark coloured veggie was a dried veggie very popular in Shanghai and surrounding areas called 梅干菜, and usually cooked with pork belly to be a famous Shanghai dish 梅菜扣肉😊
世界都是上海的，梅菜扣肉是客家菜。上海菜说好听叫本帮菜，说难听就是江浙人去上海做的菜。
上海19世纪中期被英国殖民才通过海上贸易发展起来，之前还远远不如深圳。
wake up everyday missing the videos from you
Thanks for the support :D, more videos coming soon!
And the green dessert, I guess it's not matcha but only colored with leaves. It's kind of a traditional local snack for the spring around the lower Yangtze River delta.
At 39:50 at the beef noodle place, what you ate was "hong shao niu rou xiao mian" which literally translates to "red roasted beef small noodles". I think the small noodles actually refers to the noodles being thin noodles. As I was watching this street food video, I was actually doing my best to read the menu for you guys, because I can read chinese characters, but sometimes because you didn't get a good view of the menu, I wasn't able to make out what it was. I've been to Shanghai and Suzhou like over 20 years ago, and if the menu being all in chinese characters stumps you, with most of the people not being able to speak English, then can you imagine how it was more than 20 years ago? It seems to me like you had an easier time, because at least now I can see like that lady who stopped to help you order at the pork lunchbox place, she was able to speak English and help with some translation. Over 20 years ago, if I wasn't able to speak and read Mandarin, no one would have stopped to help me, because in China, it's really all in Mandarin., or what they call "pu tong hua" (literal translation: "ordinary language"). As a Singaporean, it was a culture shock to me, because in Singapore, we mix languages when we speak, so even if we're speaking in Mandarin, we mix in some English words and it's still understood here. But if I were to mix in English words when speaking Mandarin in China, they would look at me clueless and still not be able to understand what I'm trying to say.
在中国，你要么全说中文，要么就全说英文，混在一起搭配使用，在中国给人的印象是不好的，现在中国会说英文的人越来越多，随便遇到几个年轻人都能简单说些单词。有空欢迎再次来中国旅游，我有机会一定会去趟新加坡
我完全明白你的意识。如果有机会的话，我还想去中国。尤其是上海或北京。
@@JediJean 随时欢迎👏👏👏
What you've eaten these couple of days are not Shanghai local food, LOL. But it is fun to watch. Good on you!
translate app is very useful,scan the chinese menu and translate automaticly
33:06 that is the domestic version of the Slavic borscht soup
legend goes that some nobles of the Russian enpire fled to Shanghai after the revolution and brought with them the traditional recipe of borscht. Yet due to the lack of beet root in China it was swapped for tomato for the red color. Also due to the hardship back then, large chunks of beef were replaced by Chinese sausages. Eventually end up in something that is completely different from the authentic borscht.
Yay! Another JetFam video! There is a Chinese saying “民以食为天”, pronounced as minyishiweitian, that means "Foods are the most important to People (in China)", so Chinese food are great. Btw, will you guys go to Guangdong Shenzhen (a more modern city) after visiting another country? Or Gulin Guangxi for a more rural China? (lots of famous China scenes there, but a bit difficult to explore for foreigners). Either way, I think you'd like it! I am happy to help with any questions! ❤ From Hong Kong.
We are now in Hong Kong!
We plan to go to another Chinese city that welcomes us with the 144HR visa free transit after.
hahaha
Shenzhen (a more modern city？？？）
Vs China TOP1 Shanghai？
The funniest joke in 2023。
hahahahahaha
our kid，your city not even the top three. BeiJing？
@@JetLagWarriors中国任何城市都欢迎你们来玩，慢慢享受真正的文化多样性吧，welcome to china，
It’s Sichuan pepper corn that gives you the numbing tingling sensation, it’s not something from Shanghai, but a Sichuanese spicy from a place called Sichuan. It’s been popular all over China nowadays.
The buffet looked like Canadian Chinese food!😊
Take you friend to vacation in Shunan Bamboo Sea and xi chuan Bamboo Sea in Sichuan, China. The scenery there is the most unique with Chinese characteristics.
蟹黄包😍口水流下来 回国的时候，总会去最喜欢的那家早餐店去吃蟹黄包，肴肉面
In China, everyone is a mobile phone payment, either his machine scans your payment code, or your wechat or Alipay scan code merchants two-dimensional code payment, 31:51 merchants let you show the payment code, and then to the merchant's machine, that is the automatic scanning code machine
man, it's the best neighborhood in Shanghai where you guys are visiting. Try the lamb skewer on the corner of ZheJiang Road and Guangdong Road.(called 新疆烤肉串). The best since 1980s, 2013 was the last time I went back, they were still there. Try it.
21:50, the veggie you're eating is 梅菜 or 梅干菜（Meicai or Meigancai) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meigan_cai. Meicai kourou(Braised Pork Belly with Meigan Cai) is one of the most well known dished in China. My mouth was watering when I watched you eat it.
尝试得太少，欢迎下次再来🎉
我也很喜欢酱香饼🤤
Love watching this wonderful epic length food video. And also love the way you both present the tastiness and uniqueness of the food/snacks you tasted/enjoyed. Those chefs did an amazing job preparing, cooking and presenting them. Great video ! Great commentary. Kudos to you both, Steve lvana.
Hallo Ivana ,saya suka akan konten vlog kalian,tetap semangat .
😂😂你吃酱饼上瘾了
i like ur video
Hot beef noodle soup plus cold weather 👍👍
I recommend your next city Shenzhen, super modern/convenient/future city, this city will bring you a lot of viewers; However, people are kind of tired to see Beijing
I lived in Shanghai for several years, and I'm afraid that local people don't eat the soup buns 😂 They would prefer small ones with more meat but less soup.
The restaurants in shopping malls usually don't have the own restrooms, so you have to walk a long way to PP.
mac D's burger flavoured with hăo chī (good food) bread 😂...
(how much) "duo shao qian"
China today produces over 70% of the world's tomato paste so ketchup from anywhere is probably from Chinese tomatoes regardless if it's Heinz, French's, No Name or tomato sauces from Catelli's, Classico or Primo !
视频主好像爱上羌qiang饼(hao chi)了.上海人叫它羌饼.外地的叫千层饼更多.(以薄厚分类.呵呵)好几个视频里都把这小吃吃出了大餐的样子.我也是这样吃的.还有那25RMB的超大肉串.一样.确实是美食.😄
It’s hard to imagine how many videos would be produced if you went to other cities famous for Chinese food.Most Chinese people comment that there are too few types of food in Shanghai.
确实如此，上海只是聚集中国很多城市的小吃美食，额，有些城市的美食，没个十天半个月你吃不完，湖南长沙，重庆等等，美食多的数不过来，这么说吧，一只鱼都有几十甚至上百种做法。我没有夸大，你如果不信，我完全可以给你呈现😂
視頻內容有些是重複的，不過我還是看得好开心❤
32:05 the shopkeeper said: scan (your payment QR code) here (the camera) to pay. It does not mean that look at the camera.
If you guys love food and authenticity, Chongqing and Chengdu are the best cities to visit. The culture is rich, the food is out of this world ❤😍Both are in same region, both are open for 144 free visa. 😘
对于我这种不喜欢吃辣的中国人，对于象四川、湖南、等重口味的地方菜，一点好感都没有。更不用说绝大部分不吃辣的外国人了。
Too spicy for them, I think.
Cantonese food is the best, go to Shenzhen or Guangzhou for the fest
成年后没有去过四川，最大的障碍就是食物，对于你们可能是美食，对于我就是煎熬。
You get the best food in Shanghai. You can get different food from different regions of China there, also some French influence. They are also mixed together to create new food.
that's Tsingtao beer, you guys can travel there one day, that's my hometown and a beautiful city for tourism
you every day eat the food name in Chinese is"酱香饼"mean like “sauce pancake"
4:50 The name of this cake is Jiangxiangbing or Qiangcenbing . 😊Welcome to China😊
葱油饼/酱香饼/酱香葱油饼
You should go to the 3D city of Chongqing, it is a very magical place where many miracles will happen! There will be things you will never forget.
Chinese ketchup? Well, Ketchup actually originated from China. The name 'ketchup' is a dialect word from some part of China that I don't really know where.
it's from Cantonese : "Ke" = Tomato; "chup" = sauce
This is an interesting fact. Thanks for sharing this! I learned something new reading this :D
The numbing is the "ma" in "mala", where "la" is hot spicy. It's due to Sichuan peppercorn, which adds a floral taste and numbing sensation.
My Canadian buddy, it should be pronounced as “Worstershire”, just ignore the letter c and e, it’s a place’s name in England, British brought this sauce to Hong Kong (for cooked beef) century ago and mainland Chinese had modified the taste a bit to fit the local flavour. The original taste is sort of sour and a bit salty for steak, beef, or borscht soup.
Even though the claims are that it is created from Lea/Perrins of Worcester England. It is highly likely it originated from East Asia in reality. If you look at the facts of all over East Asia there are similar sauces that had been since antiquity, at least hundreds of years. If you look at the key ingredients and spices, they are primarily from Asia. If you look at process of making this sauce, it uses a fermentation process that is uniquely Asian in ancient times. It becomes evident if you think about the ingredients, the process and the areas where there are lots of sauces that have similar taste profiles and processes but have been there since antiquity. Then you have a one off in England and a the broad area, where nothing else comes close in processes and taste profiles. Another food for thought is Ketchup, this condiment likely came from the area of Guangdong China or somewhere in that vicinity.
I suggest you come to Yueyang.
If you come to China again next time, I recommend you to go to Chengdu. Although many foreigners prefer Shanghai at the first stop, as a China person, I think Chengdu is more suitable for sightseeing.
排骨年糕，蟹粉小笼包，甜品，牛排，奥灶面（这个其实是昆山的，但是上海也有）
46:00, Shanghai local foods are actually not that spicy. The hot food you were eating mainly originated from other parts of China. 😂
I got homesick after watching your videos...
not sure if it would help but how about using google translate to capture the menu?
Actually the helpful staff at Luckin Coffee Chengdu help me order light alcoholic latte called Jiang Xiang Latte , I pay them cash LOL
At 32:19 at the pork lunchbox store, it wasn't a camera she wanted you to look into, that was a QR code scanner probably used to make payment via electronic means. In Chinese cities, most people don't pay by cash anymore. Everything is by electronic payment, so if you pay by cash, they can tell you aren't local. Even street buskers accept payment via electronic means, and hawkers do too. China has the benefit of not having a legacy of past means of payment, so it's like they went straight to adopting the latest means of electronic payment right away. And because they don't have a legacy of having a lot of petrol-fuelled cars like most of the world does, you can see a lot of electric vehicles there. 'Cos it's like most of the regular folks went straight from bicycles and scooters/motorcycles to driving electric cars and skipped on the whole petrol-fuelled car era. Also, you probably see a lot of local car brands that are unknown outside of China, because it's probably more affordable to drive a locally made car, instead of a foreign brand imported car, if those are even available in the country.
Famous beef soup just cross the road from " haochi" roti bread, which would be perfect combination.😂😂
Why you guys don't use an app to translate those menu's ? Or communicate via translator app to the seller 😅
The dumpling you drank with a straw, in Mandarin it's called "tang bao", which means "soup bun", so I guess it's not supposed to have meat in it, just soup.
Mc egg muffin is small in Canada.
China is amazing, so much hate in West but after visiting once I loved it, wanna go back again
建议来的时候下个支付宝，不用换现金，会更方便，所有的支付都可以使用
try KFC breakfast in Shanghai, you can even order XiaoLongBao in KFC.
brown beer bottle is better as it stops the light going in....
Mee is exactly how noodle is pronounced in Shanghai, just like in Malaysia.
Sweet Food
19:40
The street looked like dust-free. Spotlessly clean!
好多老外喜欢这个煎饼😂
你是有多爱这个酱饼啊，天天吃。
建议下一站去中华艺术宫 ，上海博物馆，上海自然博物馆，上海不光只有美食。
Time to eat some proper Chinese food instead of just street food guys!
DONT WATCH THIS WHEN YOU ARE HUNGRY :)
PS. Nice video again
Hmmm dint try take photo of the menu and try translate it?
OMG.... the food is so affordable there. For $15 CAD you could only get a sandwich and a drink here in Canada. For $5CAD or 25 Yuan you could get a whole meal with fresh vegetables and so much meat.
Welcome to Shanghai
What's the name of the beef noodle soup resto? Wasn't able to see it clearly in the video.
