Loved hearing the old school piano music in the background! Wish they'd use more dark meat in chicken sandwiches and burritos/wraps. Especially if marinated and grilled.
Hi UA, hi Tina. Nice review buddy. Thanks for introducing us to a few different items we would never know existed. The burger looked hella good but wah wah. 😂 safe travels my friend. 🌟👋🏽
Pro tip: Go to every 1M+ channel and post a "Been here since" comment. Many of them will pin your comment and pretend they remember you. Great way to steal clout and boost your own channel.
I used to eat McDonalds pretty regularly when I was living in Shanghai. Outside of the double cheeseburger, you pretty much got their best item with the grilled chicken sandwich. It was my go-to for years.
Great vid! I wish that grilled chicken was everywhere, dark meat is the way to go! I get the feeling that a Japan trip may be in your future 🤔 That would be a great place for a series of vids. Plus the exchange rate doesn't hurt
Fun fact. When McDonalds first introduced drive thrus in China, it was such a foreign concept. The customers would order and receive their food then proceed to park their cars in the lot and take the food back inside the restaurant to eat.😂😂😂
When China first opened up for tourism, it was bare bones. My friend went. Her tour group had to stay in the officers barracks. Every place they ate, was eight course meals. She loved it . Towards the end, she said all she wanted was a hamburger.
Enjoyed the video, great and balanced taste. Any chance there was a filmed review of BK? No worries if not. Safe travels back home and thanks for the fun content aboard!
I am a sucker for an international McDonalds review. I appreciate your honesty, and I’m happy you shared it with us. I was at a McD’s in Hong Kong and I was wishing they had more Chinese exclusives. It was unfortunately very similar to the US menu. Overall, I enjoyed it though. Best unique item they had was a Hello Kitty themed Ube pie.
9:05 Talking about how they don't use straws and showing the whole in the cup to drink out of and there is literally a straw wrapper on the table in the background 9:14 😂
I was there in April, you completely missed the best thing about McDonald’s in China … their combos include 4 nuggets! Big Mac, fries, drink And 4 McNuggets, all for about $8.00 - Genius! Wake up McDonalds North America, this makes so much sense.
Western restaurants in foreign countries is such an interesting experience. I've never been to McDonald's in China but I have been in Osaka Japan. Samurai Burger #1 Loved it.
I wish BK, McD's, KFC, etc. would test their foreign market items more often here in the States. TH-cam has shown a great many Americans that even though they started here, fast food mega corps are just phoning it in domestically and innovating and making quality food everywhere else.
In the Woody Allen movie Matchpoint the story is about a guy who married a wealthy lady and he preferred to be married to her even though he wasn’t that into her
Thank you for being honest! I tried McD in Xiamen, China and found the food very good. We had breakfast - instead of muffins or biscuits, they had rice instead. We could not eat real mainland chinese food so we ended up at McD, Starbucks, KFC, etc...
I used to travel to Beijing for work. I usually stayed out there for ten days at a time. After about five days, I would crave something familiar (I'm American). McDonalds always hit the spot. I don't even eat McDonalds all that often here in the states but I always went at least once or twice per Beijing visit.
Went to Thailand last year and the McDonalds there has some pretty decent spicy fried chicken. Im not a particular McD fan but I do appreciate their regional "awareness" if you like. Was amazed I could actually get a traditional Thai breakfast there with rice porridge, chicken mince and coriander... Probably the most unusual thing ive ever had at one of their locations but it was pretty good.
best videos ever bro... DUMPLINGS and NOODLES and SCHEZWAN.. PEKING Ducks .. Amend DIM SUMS too.. 2007 to 2019 Melbourne, VICTORIA - Asian food... I miss it .. Dream to visit AUS.. My sister lives in the place of IT Indian zone lot of SOUTH INDIANS bro.. SAN jose Santa CLARA.. Love to visit CHINA TOWN...
The biggest injustice living in the US is that there aren't corporate owned McDonalds restaurants (that I know of ) where we can try the food McDonalds serves around the world. One of the best McDonalds meal I've had was in Spain of all places
I visited Beijing a number of years ago. I actually went there twice. It is one of my favorite cities. Near my hotel was a McDonald’s where I would walk past each day. It seemed ice cream was very popular there. Always a number of people waiting at a counter where you order the soft serve
Jacques Pepin said that about a weekend out with his daughter in NYC - just the two of them. And he was used to taking her to high-end restaurants, but after a while she broke down and asked to go to Burger King. To which he said he didn't have to analyze the choice, but just enjoy what you have.
I like the dark meat too. If you're ever in Chicago, McDonald's has their University and they rotate the menu with select items that are only available in other countries around the World. It's an opportunity to try some of the other menu items without traveling.
If I find myself in Chicago the last place I will be is McDonald's. You will find me somewhere in Chicago eating a Chicago Style Hot Dog, a Pork Tenderloin Sandwich, an Italian Beef Sandwich, and A Chicago Style Deep Dish Pizza 🍕, All At the Same Time! Hahahahahahahaha 😂!!!
I enjoyed your review as usual. Yes, if you are going to grill the chicken, the white meat is at great risk of becoming tough on the outside and dry on the inside, whereas a thigh is a much better bet. I wanted to thank you for looking into the issue I had with the characters for King's Joy. 京都is Japanese for Kyoto, and similar to Beijing, just the character 京, pronounced Kyo passes for the complete name (Japanese love to contract everything) or the alternative pronunciation serves, Miyako, which means capital. I never knew 戸was read as Ying in Chinese. The computer gave you a lot of references for 北but in Japanese this is pretty unambiguously North, although so many characters can be pronounced the same creating a lot of puns, a basis of Japanese humor, and they are also--I think this is true in China as well--often used simply as their phonetic sound, like米which means rice but can be pronounced as mei in both Chinese and Japanese and is used to mean 'American'. But I still don't see any character that can remotely be associated with King (capital maybe) or joy, although kita which means north might possibly phonetically represent 'ki' which is one reading of 'joy' so if a similar phonetic ambiguity exists between north and joy in Chinese? I'm sorry to be so pedantic and boring, but I also saw you confronted with the packaging of the burger. In Japan you literally can't open any little package or use any everyday item if you can't read the tiny instructions printed on the package; there is no standard way of cooking instant noodles, or even opening the packaging. I have an American wife who loves Japan and doesn't care, buys things without knowing what they are or how to use them. She is fluent in spoken Japanese--that does not mean she is either correct or could ever pass for Japanese on the phone--but she can keep most conversations going. But she can't read, and that handicaps her. I had to instruct her how to open a rice ball from 7-11, but I never knew either until I read the wrapper.
Its crazy seeing all you food vloggers traveling the world and just how much cheaper the food is. Its actually its infuriates me. You got all that fir $17. That probably gets you a Big Mac, Fries and a drink here. These companies are really screwing us over. Great video UA!
No Dessert? I was curious to see what type of desserts Beijing, China McD's has to offer. I was in Thailand a couple of months ago, and the McD's there had those Chinese style fried donuts... the one's that look like X's? It came with a side of dipping sauce of your choice... strawberry sauce, chocolate sauce, but I chose the Sweetened Condensed Milk... it was sooooo good! Oh, and their apple pies are still fried! Had to get one of those too!
100% with you on the dark meat chicken. Most Americans don't know what they're missing out on going for just the white meat. Dark meat is tender, juicy, and flavorful.
Hey UA, thank you so much - this is probably the first video I've seen where the image is not inverted. You know that's been my complaint from day one. I really want to keep following your channel and if you finally got rid of this annoying inverted-video issue, I'm fully on board!
David Chang started a chicken sandwich place called Fuku. They supposedly only use dark meat for it's better chicken flavor and tendency to not dry out. It doesn't sound like they were very successful though other than stadium concessions and a couple of locations in NYC. I've cooked my own deboned drumsticks and thighs, and it's almost impossible to overcook them short of burning them to a crisp.
The best McDonalds I have been to ever was in downtown Milan across from the duomo (big cathedral). It was very busy/popular and the food was as good as McDonalds gets. People kept telling me to try McDonalds in Germany. I tried the McDonalds in Munich that is the busiest McDonalds in Europe and it was as mediocre as you would find in the US. I also tred a McDonalds on the autobahn between Berlin and Nuremberg. The people were very nice but the foods was mediocre. So in my book, Milan is the one to beat.
I gave up on McDonald's years ago. The quality and price was great when I was on a strict budget, but I usually now eat at sit down restaurants. The only fast food I eat now is In & Out or Popey's for chicken. I haven't been to a McDonald's for over 20 years. I don't miss them at all.
Thank you for the honesty UA. I'm sick of food YTers making whole series of visiting chains in Asia and pretending they are Godly. Most of them have 4 great items and are on avg 20% better than their US counterparts and thats about it.
I agree. I do think McDonald's and 7 Eleven do tend to be a bit better in other countries, but they are still just fast food restaurants end of the day
"big mac section, looks pretty standard just typical American mcdonald's" *completely glosses over the "thuringer sausage double beef burger"* "Not too different" 🤨. Am i being gaslit or something? that looks pretty damn different to me! lmao!
I'd think a "suburban" part of Beijing isn't really that unusual. I mean - there are parts of NYC that feel like suburbs. But then Beijing is huge, where they just kept on annexing more and more land into a prefecture level city where it gets to the point where it seems they just want to make a really large city just to claim it's big. But Beijing itself is divided into districts and counties. But as a point of comparison, Beijing is over 6000 square miles, while NYC is about 300 square miles.
I remember watching a video of a very fancy McDonalds in Singapore. Definitely nothing like the McDonalds you usually see. If you ever go to Singapore, you should see if you can track it down if it's still around.
Your video is flickering due to the power supply frequency difference. It affects street lights, indoor ligting, and televisions, etc. In Europe/Asia (PAL), the frequency is 50 Hz, and videos typically run at 25 fps. In the USA (NTSC), the frequency is 60 Hz, and videos run at 29.97 fps. Adjust your settings accordingly. Hope this helps.
I would have thought by now most places have gone to LED lighting that is essentially DC. But there might be dimmable lighting that uses rapid switching to regulate output. That could be the issue.
Power supply for what? And how would an external power supply effect FPS ? FPS is effected by bandwidth and raw processing power not frequency ...the fuck are you talking about 😂
Dang It UA-! I was really hoping you would hit up the Yoshinoya in China. Oh Well, It Is What It Is. Hope you're able to recover from what was ailing you.
Outside of fast food, there really aren't that many American restaurant chains in China other than maybe Pizza hut. The only one I can think of is TGI Fridays, which has two locations in Beijing. I didn't see one on a trip to Beijing, but I do remember one at our hotel in Wuxi on New Year's Eve. It was weird too, where I saw a server wearing this big foam cowboy-style hat with a stars and stripes motif. I heard there are a few Chili's in China, but not in Beijing yet.
First time I went to China with my girlfriend (now wife) in 1992 I'll admit I got a little homesick and I'm a little ashamed how much that one McDonalds in Beijing tasted so damn glorious. That's how lame I was 32 years ago.
I've seen a few Costco locations do that with the little sippy flap. Initially started with cities that banned plastic straws, which then got complaints about paper straws (which start to fall apart when wet). Still - I've occasionally seen it where they have the little flaps but then offer straws. Since there's no traditional straw opening, the straw goes in the flap but that leaves a big hole that can leak if it's in a car cup holder.
In the US if they which they don’t offer those cool sounding menu choices that was a fair price you paid is it enough food for two people like would what you ordered maybe one more wagyu burger enough food for you and Tina to feel comfortably full ?.
UA; after the King's Joy ¥999 menu that was not very memorable, there you atmre at the other end of the price scale at McD's! Frankly, in all my visits to China I never even thought about McD's! China has one of the best selections of fast-food at reasonable prices, starting with the millions of noodle restaurants!!
Nah - the other end of the price scale has someone getting full for less than US$2. It's possible to eat really cheap in China. I think Ua did that once with a place that had some sort of wrap.
If you want to get it to focus a little better you have to put it up against something solid like the table it might take two or three tries but eventually it will adjust properly, this is coming from an instacart Shopper that constantly has issues focusing on the barcodes while I scan them with a $2,000 smartphone
Just by the look of it, the grilled chicken sandwich looks delicious. Too bad you can't read Chinese. I am able to read Thai but not write it. Forgot how to do so a long time ago.
That vegetarian montage looked absolutely delicious. You just don't have any good taste. The quality vegetables scared you off, which makes you kind of weak.
China gets points for giving up straws. I don't think you're right about sprite and soda. In other countries they use real sugar not dumping high fructose corn syrup in it, like in the US. Don't assume its the same. Yeah I think you do need Tina to keep you in check LOL
I think the fast food places outside of the USA is just much better cause the employees care to put out decent food.. in the usa they just dont care since its just “Fast Food”
So disappointed about the burger. I had such high hopes for it based on the look. I liked the white and black sesame seeds on the bun. The chicken….I dunno. I’m not really a fan of dark meat. I thought the chicken and bamboo shoots looked good. Nice review, very fun idea! Safe travels!
came across ur channel recently and have been binge watching ever since! glad i subscribed. 👍🏻 pretty cool stuff!
Thank you for the kind words! Hearing I've been binge watched is the best compliment of all

It really is. Im going to china and cant wait to compare the two. Ive tried them in mexico so its cool to see the slight differences.
@Manguy5472 when you go to China please tell me about the difference. I am in Japan as we speak
I wish BK, McD's, KFC, etc. would test their foreign market items more often here in the States. TH-cam has shown a great many Americans that even though they started here, fast food mega corps are just phoning it in domestically and innovating and making quality food everywhere else.
Unfortunately, McDonald’s has to cater to the basic food palates of Karen and Kevin’s in the USA 😂
Tina’s family got money, you know UA chasin that baggggg
I think Tina likes eating out so they hit it off. lol

yo how much money she got? real curious
Its just great for him he can do his YT thing together with his partner.
Does it matter how much money she has?
The espresso coffee with the soft serve on the dessert menu was phenomenal.

100% with you on the dark meat chicken. Most Americans don't know what they're missing out on going for just the white meat. Dark meat is tender, juicy, and flavorful.
You have to go to and review sweet Lucy bbq in northeast Philadelphia on state road . Off the road odd location but great bbq .

I'd think a "suburban" part of Beijing isn't really that unusual. I mean - there are parts of NYC that feel like suburbs.

Even in Hawaii McDonald’s is different. You can get ramen 😂 they had a bunch of Japanese type foods I just don’t remember it all.
those are sesame seeds. black and white. you can buy them in the grocery store

I’ve been to McDonald’s on every continent. But for me, Thailand McDonald’s is my favorite. Not crazy different items but just better tasting
Can you make a video showing your normal filming process?
In some mcdonalds, the angus beef is very juicy, but maybe in this mcdonalds they didnt made it good, you should try the double angus beef.
Come to Boston when you get back
ok
Hey UA - I’ve actually eaten there in Beijing. It didn’t taste the same, but it was the closest thing to eating American food.
Outside of fast food, there really aren't that many American restaurant chains in China other than maybe Pizza hut.

Oh thank goodness back to the old music😊
Bro that chicken sandwich 🥪 👀 limber steak 🥩😅🤦🏻♂️😭
I like the plastic lids with the opening. Damn paper straws suck. We have places here that use the new style of lid now.
I've seen a few Costco locations do that with the little sippy flap. Initially started with cities that banned plastic straws, which then got complaints about paper straws (which start to fall apart when wet). Still - I've occasionally seen it where they have the little flaps but then offer straws.

UA; after the King's Joy ¥999 menu that was not very memorable, there you atmre at the other end of the price scale at McD's! Frankly, in all my visits to China I never even thought about McD's! China has one of the best selections of fast-food at reasonable prices, starting with the millions of noodle restaurants!!
Nah - the other end of the price scale has someone getting full for less than US$2. It's possible to eat really cheap in China. I think Ua did that once with a place that had some sort of wrap.
If you want to get it to focus a little better you have to put it up against something solid like the table it might take two or three tries but eventually it will adjust properly, this is coming from an instacart Shopper that constantly has issues focusing on the barcodes while I scan them with a $2,000 smartphone
Safe Journey!
Yellowbird Blue Agave Sriracha!!!
Wow the burger actually ends at the bun!
I remember last time in Beijing I had a pie at the McDonalds and it was amazing. Forget what flavor it was, maybe pineapple.
Will have to try it next time!
Do we get to see Tina? And you can't say gonna leave Tina the bucket. It's kinda offensive 😂😂
Why would you pay for food with your creditcard?
“If you ever come to China…”
Never.
That comment had a purpose to exist.
Yea not with the CCP running things
"Dark meat to me is almost objectively better" - Most based opinion of 2024
Just by the look of it, the grilled chicken sandwich looks delicious. Too bad you can't read Chinese. I am able to read Thai but not write it. Forgot how to do so a long time ago.
still better than that vegetarian montage... yes?
No way.
That vegetarian montage looked absolutely delicious. You just don't have any good taste. The quality vegetables scared you off, which makes you kind of weak.
Had those Angus burgers a few times in BJ - I found them ok
China gets points for giving up straws. I don't think you're right about sprite and soda. In other countries they use real sugar not dumping high fructose corn syrup in it, like in the US. Don't assume its the same. Yeah I think you do need Tina to keep you in check LOL
The prices in China are better than the US! Thats crazy!
You need to try Gotham Burger social club in nyc
I don't know where you can eat it but... can you try lab meat?
Just buy beyond burgers
Not poppy seed on the bun; its black and white sesame seeds.
I think the fast food places outside of the USA is just much better cause the employees care to put out decent food.. in the usa they just dont care since its just “Fast Food”
He was eating frogs? That's French I thought.

a all New Crazy Food ....
Won't be in China any time soon because I'm scared to fly, so I'll take your word for it
Burgers in China are never good. Basically everything else at fast food places is good. And obviously Chinese food in general is great and diverse.
So you met your future in-laws... 🤣
So disappointed about the burger. I had such high hopes for it based on the look. I liked the white and black sesame seeds on the bun. The chicken….I dunno. I’m not really a fan of dark meat. I thought the chicken and bamboo shoots looked good. Nice review, very fun idea! Safe travels!
How come he never show tina..involve her in your videos im sure you will get double the subscription's
Hope you finished your popcorn chicken n fries!
