I'm from Shenzhen, and I'm now in Chiang Mai, Thailand, watching your street food video in Dongmen...makes my mouth water! So wanna go back and eat ALL sorts of street food in Shenzhen... homesick to the max.. thank you for your video!
I'm from Shenzhen. It is funny that I didn't appreciate street food that much until I came to Canada. Living here for 6 years make me realized that there is so much beautiful side of my hometown that I never pay attention before! Thank you!
Man i love your channel 😍😍 I love how you represent China, its food and its culture . I hope one day I can travel in China like you. Love from Bangladesh 💌
As a fellow Australian learning Mandarin (I’m in Taiwan), I get great encouragement from your videos. You’ve obviously studied hard and reached a high level 👍🏻
What a delicious endeavour! Thanks to: Your throat for piercing through the background noise; Your belly for making room to accommodate all the grub; Your wallet for getting lighter; Your eyes for staying open till dawn! :D
I am going to Shenzhen end of this week. Definitely going to try all the food that you have shown in this video. Thank you for all the video you have taken in China. I will visit everyone of them during my lifetime.
Hey, I've been binge watching alot of your content and I just wanted to say you make amazing videos. I was born and am living in Australia but my parents are Chinese. I'm going on a trip to China and other countries in Asia at the start of next year with two of my Australian friends. I've been watching your videos to get inspiration for travel and places to go (+ things to eat) and they've made me so excited to go back on my own terms. I've been multiple times before and stayed with family but didn't really have much control over what to do. We are going to Shenzhen, Wuhan and Beijing :) (Also I must add, your Chinese is so much better than mine)
Sorry for my random comment after 2 years, but did that trip end up happening? My guess is you probably weren't able to travel during what must have been the start of 2020, which is a shame...just a little curious lol
I just returned from Shenzhen and my hotel happened to be right across from the night market. It looks the same but even more lively. I even got to finally try the infamous Bing Fen. And I loved it! I did notice there weren’t much foreigners in this old part of town so you must have gotten LOTS of stares 4 years ago! 😂
Good for you! Just support you on patreon. Not much money but hope you can keep doing what you like and shows more about the truly amazing part of China
OMG! That's amazing! I'm so glad my videos are binge-able! Funny you say that - I actually have a hong kong food tour video that I've been waiting to post for a month now. I'm worried that it will look insensitive if I post a non political, food related video of Hong Kong right now. What are your thoughts? To upload or not upload? that is the question...
another great video, Amy whenever you do these videos about food, I add more items on my list to try the next time I visit China. Hopefully I will be able to try many of the dishes you have suggested. I have had Chuan er (one of my favorites) and Bingtanghulu before. I really want to try the Jianbing, it looks so delicious. thanks for sharing 😁
Yay! That's so great to hear! You'll be able to find all those foods at a typical street food market - they're some of the classics! And yeah, Jianbing would definitely be one of my favourites!
Love your stuff, pengyou! Constantly putting in hours of work to develop quality content and showing the world the things that we love about the country and people here 🤗 加油 Amy!!!
I believe that candied fruits on a stick you had in the video is made from a type of fruit called hawthorn that’s widely grown in northern China 🤗. Yum
The fruit is called "crabapple" in the States, and I agree that covered in sugar it basically tastes like a candied apple. I've also seen a version made with whole strawberries instead during the summer. When it's fresh and still warm it's soooo good! Oh, and happy National Day!
No, it's called a Chinese hawthorn. I haven't had it outside of China either. A crabapple is a type of apple in the genus Malus. This isn't a crabapple.
@@BlondieinChina just received a temperature alert saying there is a possiblility of sub-zero temperature tomorrow morning.... And I am from southern China, so temperature is getting unbearable even at this point lol.
my first time right here with you and hmmm just saying!!!! and love that video with two subtitltes merci!!! now i suppose that i have plenty videos from you to watch to appreciate too!!! :-)
This blonde lady very professional, her attitude her passion and in both language she explained where could confuse her audiences, I believe she is sponsored by certain Chinese culture organization, but who cares.
Another awesome and amazing video! You’re more Asian than me! Loving the oysters gotta get me some. Love it when you speak Mandarin! It is so good! What a night ! Good times! pengyou! Mate! 😀
They're great. I've only been to the ones in Taipei and Hualien (I was living there for a few months). I want to see the other ones like Kaohsiung and Taichung. I heard Jiufen has a really pretty one. My go to dishes at the markets were Oyster Omelettes and Jipai (Fried Chicken Steak). Oh! And Hujiaobing (Black Pepper beef buns). 😍
LOVED IT, I'LL BE GOING TO CHINA NEXT YEAR IN LATE SPRING. HOPE TO MAKE IT UP TO TIBET WHILE I'M THERE. THEN BACK TO THAILAND FOR A REST. THEN I'M OFF TO AUSTRALIA FOR A DIP IN THE WATERS OF THE GREAT BARRIER ISLANDS TO SCUBA DIVE AGAIN. IT IS PROBABLY MY FAVORITE THING I'VE DONE SO FAR.
There's a Xixiang Pedestrian Street with lots of cute local business in the older part of the city. The developer Kaiser has been trying to demolish that old town and replace it with high-rises. Definitely worth visiting before its "redevelopment."
Everything looks delicious! Apart from the Cockroaches, lol! Someone said they are bamboo beetles, which I think is correct. Reminds me of the Indiana Jones Movie where they eat beetles, hahaha!
Didn't realize there's a food market! Damn. We missed all the fun stuff you have shown. Really need to head back to that side of the world. Food look delicious and your Chinese is better than mine. LOL. How long were you in Shanghai? Which city to you like the best? BJ, SH or SZ?
Hi Amy, do you think you can make a video of the cost of living in China maybe in the supermarket or convenience store ? :D I think it's interesting to see how much does it cost in a daily life. Thanks for your videos and keep going ! ;)
You've got me hungry already just by watching this Amy! And that's despite having just eaten! Does that make me a glutton? Because this is another video that presses the correct button! Except for the cockroaches part! They say mind over matter but f* that! It just aint for me either!! Otherwise gluttony is my middle name! In addition, Happy PRC Day and 70th anniversary!!
hahaha don't worry, I regularly put myself through the torture of watching cooking and food videos at 1am. Glad you agree with my decision not to eat the cockroach! hahhaah too gross! 国庆节快乐！
Hi - love your blogs. For personal reasons, is there any chance you could produce a video on the cost of living in Shenzhen? It would be greatly appreciated. Cheers 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

it's hard not to love Jianbing! I think I had at least one jianbing a day when I first studied in China back in 2014!

Thank you SO MUCH! I'm so glad you enjoy my videos x
It's always fantastic to watch Amy eating. It just makes my mouth watering. She's just so happy and her descriptions about every food are so tempting.
That food looked amazing! Thank you for sharing your journey through China with us!
Why I’m watching this middle of the night.......
bad choice! hahahah
And I'm in Australia… and I watched to the end…and of course I am hungry…and of course I want to go out for宵夜…Amy, you ruin my day lol
The videos prove how important it is to have a beautiful host with friendly manner introducing interesting cultures...
Really enjoy hearing you speak Mandarin! So inspiring and encouraging. Your videos are full of energy and informative. Please keep up the great work.
aww thanks Joe! Your comment made my day!
As a fellow Australian learning Mandarin (I’m in Taiwan), I get great encouragement from your videos. You’ve obviously studied hard and reached a high level 👍🏻
Glad I just finished dinner. All of these fall into my favorites also, yummy to the tummy.
What a delicious endeavour!

Your eyes for staying open till dawn! :D
and thanks to your poetic finesse!!! Made my day! hahah
3:55 it's not cockroaches, it's 竹象 Cyrtotracjelus longimanus, very delicious and clean.
They eat bamboo shoots or bamboo, just like panda, haha
I will eat Cyrtotrachelus longimanus or the bamboo weevil only with 小斐鱼 （th-cam.com/video/r6u3yS9BYgg/w-d-xo.html).
Oooof . I’m sorry, hard pass
Cockroaches are all in HK at the moment hehe

It all looks amazing though. Gives me flashbacks to the night markets I used to wander around in Taiwan.

Shenzhen is my hometown. I grew up in OCT (overseas Chinese town). You should visit there if you haven’t already.
I've always associated Shenzen as a place that develops electronics and so on, I would of never guessed they had amazing food! Nice :)
yeah!! And because it is a migrant city, you can find specialties from all over china :)
I got hungry after I watched this video. The foods looked so good. Great video. 👍🤘
Glad to hear that! hahahah. Thanks!
nice video. I will be back to Shenzhen in one week. to eat all the food you ate in this video. thanks
