I love Chinese and ate it so often as a child. My mom couldn't cook and we had a Chinese restaurant a five minute walk from our home. Now I live far away from any, but this inspired me to learn how to make the dishes from my childhood myself.
@@Verity888 A tad bit further to the East, in the countryside of Sweden. 😉 Don't get me wrong, we have many restaurants with foreign food (Swedes don't eat Swedish food at all when we go out to eat), but Chinese were amongst the first and have fallen out of fashion. I still love it though.
@@MsAnpassad oh I see lol. Sorry, I took for granted that because this clip is from an American news channel that most viewers would be from the states. The channel “Made with Lau” on TH-cam does Chinese food pretty well, if you need a source for Chinese recipes.
The Chinese people are unbeatable, they made their mark on the world stage thru space, economy, health care, IT, food, micro chip and now a 100 years old restaurant in NYC. God bless China 🇨🇳. ❤ from kerala
When we were in London in the summer of 2019, I made it point to go A. Wong for lunch. The food was very good. Thank you, Andrew. You made your parents very proud.
Let me say...The Dish is my favourite segment on Saturday CBS Morning Show and the food segment on Sunday Morning Show! I dined at Nom Wah Tea Parlor when I was in NYC June 2023, I have yet to try MIMI Chinese (too pricey), I'm born and raised in Toronto, Canadian Chinese. I have my favourite Chinese restaurants I go to and I share it all on my TH-cam channel.
I knew of 3 kinds of Chinese food, growing up in the 70's. And. The 3rd option was the staple Chinese restaurant, which 2023 Chinese restaurant people love to laugh at. And. It was awesome, and I wish they still had restaurants, with the heavy emphasis on pink duck sauce and hot mustard, which you make by adding water to powdered mustard, as the essential condiments to flavor your meal. In a lot of ways, I prefer the 70's, 'fake' Chinese food to these 'authentic' Chinese places. The Pupu Platter. Sweet and Sour, with the excess of fried batter, was memorable. And I was too young to order the Scorpion Bowl, but it was always something that was 'authentic' Chinese, back in the day. Any place that serve 'authentic' is going to expect you to enjoy based on 'authenticity,' as opposed to 'taste' and this idea of eating what you want to eat. Smartest eater, I ever seen of Chinese food, was a friend of my brother's, and he would go to my mom's Chinese cafeteria, in this medical school, and everyone would be ordering main dishes and maybe an eggroll or two, or a combination and one or two eggrolls. My brother's friend would order 7 eggrolls, rice and soy sauce, with extra hot mustard. This guy knew what he wanted to eat, although there is really nothing 'inherently' great in what he ordered. Eat for taste, when you eat Chinese, and Chinese restaurants won't be able to get away with tricking people into 'authentic' for a higher price. RIght now, the smartest thing to eat at Chinese is sides, like eggroll, sesame noodles, or scallion pancakes. Even crab rangoon a good choice. 2 apps, one meal, if you go sesame noodles. Wanton pretty weak Chinese staple.
As Someone who’s traveled the word for food , in terms of the sheer bench of flavors and creativity, just ONE Chinese province…. could easily pick a fair ‘food-off’ contest with nearly any other entire country in the world. And in totality, there would honestly be no fair battle against the full mindblowing depth of China’s contributions (India & Mexico come closest)
I love this segment, but I must say that other than Nam Wah, the rest of the chef and cuisine are more of a "Western Chinese" food instead of authentic Chinese. That being said, everything looked well prepared and delicious!
I am greek canadian. I worked for a Chinese firm in Markham and waa exposed to a whole lot of variety of food. My group had a reunion after 5 years and went to a restaurant serving food from xinjiang. It waa amazing. I'll have to follow you for recommendations in downtown TO ✌️
I love dim sum and Chinese cuisine at its best. Such delicate and deep flavors I dream of tasting, but just visualizing brings me the closest I could with my eyes so big. 😳👀🙌👏🫶❤
In this video he talks about Dimsum,and I like Dimsum or Suimai,as they call it,doesn't matter because it's the same thing, but I like to go to places that usually have an assortment usually on carts walking around the place,and I remember years ago when I was in Morocco and my friends brother asked me if I could make Chinese food for his family and friends, and I said why?,and he said that he likes it as they're no Chinese restaurant here,so I made it with what I had, and I made a traditional 9 course meal and he asked me how did I learn how to make it, and I said from my ma,and he said can you teach me and my wife how to make the dishes and I said Sure,no problem as it's very easy to make and I can teach you the basics from cutting the ingredients, making the different sauces,to the plating and the garnish as it's a lot better than going to a restaurant, because you made it at home and it's a lot cheaper as is the Chinese way. I think that Chinese food is so popular because it's very nutritional easy to make, and you can use whatever is available, just use your imagination, vegetables with whatever, soups are very easy to make just have the ingredients ready to go and that's it.
Everybody knows this is not not popular Chinese food you will see when we go to China. It is China town food. Good food. But more like American Chinese Food, that Canadian one is more like popular Chinese food. Good job!
Chinese Exclusion Act was a United States federal law signed by President Chester A. Arthur on May 6, 1882, prohibiting all immigration of Chinese laborers for 10 years. The law made exceptions for merchants, teachers, students, travelers, and diplomats. And this is way oriental food is popular, they had to open restaurants and stores in order to move to the USA.
The first dude - not authentic food bro. Cut the crap. Manhattan Ctown is only good for classic Canto food. Want modern and variety - go to Flushing. Good to know Michelin star Chinese restaurants exist in other cities. Only one is Manhattan and it’s not Canto. Loving the mix at the Toronto spot. Would visit it.
It's such a n00b thing to not be aware that Jewish people are always fond of Chinese food. Some of it comes from the immigrant experience around the same time (late 19th to early 20th century. Then it becomes tradition. I am 68 and Jewish and I have started cooking my own Chinese food that I learn from TH-cam channels, especially Made with Lau.
It doesn't matter, because *It's pronounced differently in different Asian languages* , and even takes different spelling forms, some without an "n" ending: *I speak Vietnamese, where it becomes "Mì xào"* , where the word order is flipped and the "-n" is optionally dropped.
@@Suite_annamite It does matter since this is a story about Chinese (check the title of the video) cooking and they were specifically was speaking with a Cantonese cook. If this was about general Asian cooking then perhaps the word can be anything else, but this is not the case.
@@Obscurai: *Asian languages don't just float randomly in a vacuum:* they have connected vocabulary, which varies historically. And that means that any menu item even within varieties of "Chinese" changes, *Cantonese isn't simply "Chinese"* and has it's own pronunciations. And many Asian languages outside of China have more correct readings. Vietnamese culinary terms can sound Cantonese, Hokkien, Chaozhou, or southern Mandarin. So what even is a "Chinese" way to say any menu item.
Schwartz must be OCD, with a healthy dose of I'M RIGHT AND YOU'RE NOT (narcissist). The way he was directing how to eat Chinese HIS way irritated me right off. The rest of the piece was really good.
Chinese food is hilarious when you take Japanese version, Korean version, Mexican version and force a Chinese master chef from mainland China to eat it.
Japanese actually do a great job with Chinese food not dim sum though. And if the food is made in Japan you be comfortable to know that ingredients are not made from chemicals
I don't why you guys interview that British half-Chinese chef, his food is not Chinese food. It's nothing being authentic or not, It's just Westernized fusion Asian food. That's fine, but you can't say there are three flavors of Cantonese foos: Garlic, giner, spring onion, that's NOT true
@ometofu I didn't say half asians are not good. They are good-looking people. It's nothing to do with his identity, but his notions of Cantonese food isn't true
@@ometofu what are you talking about? He said "There are three flavors of Cantonese foods: Garlic, ginger, spring onion" If he says there are three flavors or whatever flavors for American Chinese food, I'd be fine. I know you are trying to be sarcastic by saying 1950s, but even speaking of the essential flavors of Cantonese cooking are not ginger, garlic, or spring onion at all times! The three ingredients are important, honestly, but certainly not just three. And they are definitely not the top 3 ingredients or flavors, More than that, a lot more than that! Anyway, no Cantonese people will agree with his statement.
The food he makes is the food non Chinese people actually want to eat. The original Chinese food is dirty and disgusting, especially when dishes contain canine, feline meat, farmed off quality fish and discounted leftover produce.
I heard that owners of Chinese restaurants didn.t eat their own americanized versions of Chinese food but had their own traditional foods they made for themselves...not what it sounded like here...any truth to that...thanks...
There is some truth to that but it's mainly convenience and ease. Usually the food they would eat at home are simple dishes like steamed veg, steamed fish or boiled chicken with soysauce based dressing,simple stir fry of whatever veg and meat, tomato egg, congee, or a simple broth with some veg and protein. Growing up that's what we usually had homecooked, but we'd also go out and eat at Chinese restaurants too.
@@MsAnpassad it's the salt content. I can consume maximum 1 tablespoon of soy sauce per day also most stroke victims are diabetics no rice or rice products
@@otogigamer So don't add extra soy sauce? And there are actually saltreduced soy sauce available, which has about half the amount of regular, so bring you own bottle? . And talk to the staff at the restaurant prior to eating there. It's not like there aren't any stoke sufferers or diabetics in China too. Plus there are several dishes that don't contain rice. If you are American, then you should be far more concerned with all the addatives, sugar and hidden salt in "regular" cousine than with eating Asian foods.
Because he's just like my cousins, from an Asian dad and a non-Asian mom: mixed raced people look like their mother's side, especially when they grow up. My Vietnamese uncles married my French-Canadian aunts, so my cousins and their collective 5 kids look like him, or look white.

Chinese food is some of the best food on the planet, especially (for me), the hot & spicy stuff! #yummmm
