- I'm a big Sashimi fan, so when I heard Beijing has its own version with fish farmed locally, I simply had to try

Seeing a lot of comments about the safety of eating river fish raw because of parasites. The fish we ate in this video are not wild caught river fish, they are farmed by artificial breeding and safe for eating raw :) I definitely do not endorse eating wild caught river fish raw!!!

Haha! The very first thing I thought of when I saw the title!
Even artificial breeding river fish is strongly recommended not to eat it raw, those info can easily be found on internet. There is no safe raw river fish unless it is cooked.
Boycott China. India superpower jai hind 🇮🇳💪🏿🇮🇳
@@wualex846 Well obviously there is a risk to eating raw fish but you might as well say that about normal sushi too. If you eat sushi bought in a store it was usually even frozen once before. I'd rather trust a raw river fish that was just alive 10 minutes ago than supermarket sushi. That being said - I'm still getting the cheap as unsafe sushi 😂
Jasmine is so fluent in both Mandarin and English, she is really a great travel partner to have on the show! Do make more videos with her lol. Also I've never been to northern China before (I've only ever been to southern China, areas like Guangdong and Shanghai), and it is so beautiful in autumn with all the foliage!
Absolutely love Jasmine’s humour, you two are hilarious together!
I love Jasmine!
We need more of jasmine does she have a channel or any sort?
@@koruki she’s got Insta as far as I know 🤷🏻♀️
怀柔 and 雁栖湖 is always so beautiful. There is a path that goes all the way up into the mountain along the spring (or river whatever you want to call it) and the view is gorgeous. Glad you found that beautiful and enjoyed the food there.
As a Chinese guy, I really appreciate what you are doing. Thank you so much!
I'm so amazed with Amy's knowledge on not just Chinese food but also it's history and culture. Jasmine can't be bothered occasionally while Amy spoke away at the camera as she busily devouring the fish 😂
China has a long tradition of eating raw fish cut very thin (into strips or even into hairs) that discontinued around the end of the Ming. Called "Kuai" (known as Hoe in Korean). Raw fish was the favorite food of Confucius. This dish survives on in Guangdong only. This restaurant should have recreated the old recipes listed in old cookbooks
Thats interesting! I know Shunde also have a special way of preparing raw fish - would love to try one day
@@BlondieinChina And it became as Yee Sang in Malaysia and Singapore
Guangxi has it as well
*Vietnamese cuisine* renders that term as *"gỏi"* (膾 / 脍): where it refers to salad, but also to julienned meat or fish that's figuratively eaten as a "salad"; it's the same as the *Italian "carpaccio".*
@@BlondieinChina yep you should go and have a try at the days when you were in JIANGMEN.
I agree with Jasmine - there is so much flavor in the fish head! Don't waste it!
👍
Jasmine needs her own food channel......she's freakin awesome
maybe you can make a series of you travelling with this girl, she is so gentle and eloquent
That restaurant looks so beautiful! Also, I LOVE that taboggan ride at the Great Wall! I've been to that section of the wall twice and rode it both times. I wish it were possible to ride it more than once per visit, lol.
Digging how thinly sliced the raw fish is and the pink-orange colour, makes me crave some sashimi. Don't know if I'd wanna risk eating it having to board an hour long train ride, though. The digestive tract may decide to kick into overdrive prematurely...the kitten with heterochromia is also kinda cool.
The raw fish dishes in Guangxi and Guangdong are very famous too. The dipping sauce and toppings are more traditional too.
How fascinating it is! when blondie mixes english and Chinese culture which I'm really into!!!! so tobe engrossed in these videos. Thank you blondie, hope you release more exciting destinations.
Where did you find Jasmine. Her English is perfect, and she is pretty.
Met her through work and we became fast friends!!
@Qusi Asan White people aren't actually white, they're pink lol... like how black people are actually brown.
All Chinese girls are pretty, they got the Lucky Gengis Khan Genes, Indians missed out because GK never went there
@@BlondieinChina They are fresh water fish from fish farms... You never eat fish raw from Beijing's local rivers.
@@jennyohara4011 Really? I think many Indians are rather pretty too
I like your videos sooooooo much!😭 I’m a Beijinger and currently live in Vancouver as a sophomore. Being homesick everyday. so glad to see you had great experience in Beijing!
Jasmine is unbelievably cute! Is she making videos and posting them somewhere that we don't know!? Where, where??? We want more of Jasmine and her bright personality plzzz!!!
This place is a real gem! China actually has their own “native” species of trout.
looks soooo good! i literally started drooling seeing that grilled fish
Wow! One of the best videos i've had chanced upon.
You guys are so hilarious together, making me laughing all the way along this vlog 😂
C'est toujours un plaisir de regarder vos vidéo. Joli reportage et cela me donne l'eau à la bouche ! Ça doivent être délicieux ces menus 🤤.
yeah!!Jasmine is back!
I saw Jasmine in the photo so I had to click and watch, love all those videos with Jasmine in it!!!!
You two guys are really good together! Another great vid
The poor thing on our plate today will be Rainbow trout hahah🤣 🤣 You should make more videos with Jasmine.
your every video is so much fun. and you are very happy, it looks like you love Chinese food and also the people
Yes. I'd try it. I tried this in Michigan. Always a good thing to be truly respectful of the food people eat around the world. Blondie reminds me of Emmymade. Truly nice and kind, open minded, curious, and willing to try a diversity of food from around the world. (th-cam.com/users/emmymade)
Amy directly contributes to world peace. I'm positive that is not at the forefront of her mind when doing these videos but showing people the real China is a hard counter to the endless barrage of "China bad" or "You must hate China" rhetoric in Western MSM.
yess she reminds me of emmy too! as well as beryl shereshewsky! love learning more about other parts of the world through their vids!
I'm here for Jasmine......she's amazing!!!! Do more vids with her Aims!
🇺🇸 Jasmine is cool 😎 like the cats. I would love to take the green train.
Cat + Fish = Catfish.
Amy + Jasmine = Besties.
hi Amy if you ever do a Q&A, I'd love to know how you make friends and meet new people in new cities! are many people you know back from your school days? how easy is it to make friends in new cities you visit?
I studied in HuaiRou for one year, eveything in this video is full of memory.
You two should visit the qinglongxia and yanqi lake.😊
That cute little white cat has different eye colors! Awwwwww
Jasmine's face was like wtf when Amy was describing the slide off the great wall
I saw Jasmine so I clicked immediately
Thanks for bringing back memories of eating the grilled trout when I visited Mutianyu years ago
10:06 Every man's hope has just been raised immensely when Jasmine announced that she is a fan of head.
I, too, love fish head, those collagen in the fish head, eyes socket, mouth/jaw/cheek parts, has so much collagen. This fish farm is a good idea n the cool n fresh mountain mineral water flowing keep the trouts healthy n clean. Cooked my yellow tail(Buri)fish head in Soup curry 2 nights ago! Instead of meat, l used fish head.
That sashimi n grilled salmon trout looks so fresh n yummy. Will definitely visit this fish farm when in Beijing!
Love that green slow train too. Preserved Tradition!
"山吧" is actually a famous tourist attraction in Beijing. They got beautiful view and a lot of delicious foods that you can't have at citycenter, and people usually choose to live in there for few days to relax in vacation.
What a nice video ! I am also going to visit this place in the future . Jasmine is also such a cute girl, a real foodie.
Jasmine is a very traditional Chinese girl - eats more than talk. Lol
Love your videos and Jasmine is so pretty!
China's old green trains are really like extended trams now. They service outlying villages and towns where commute does not need speed.
🤣the"foreigners love it" thing calld"滑道" or"山地滑梯"in chinese, i played it at 2007 when i 12 years old. and i still love it. but my friends and relatives think that is "child stuff"🤣
Wooh, love to see this Tube..... Jasmine appears like Korea Idol.... Very love to see
This is my childhood memory! My dad always brought me to the same place.
Yes! Finally Jasmine 😍👍🏼
I remember a scene in the IT Crowd where they had a bottle of white wine called 'white wine'. Similar silly fun here.
These cats are so lucky
I love Jasemin!
Thank you Amy nice video with your new friend
this area of Beijing is so beautiful, totally different from the City area.
Just staring at Jasmine throughout the entire video 🤩
The mountain bar looks so lovely! I’d like to stay in the area for a night!
Jasmine is my new love now.
Dong Che is actually not called speed trains, but all powered train cars instead the old style trains pulled by powered locomotives only.
Jasmine is a true blue Chinese eater: we love meat on the bone whether they be meat, poultry or fish. No boring fillet patronised by the westerners. I had a Caucasian brother in law who nearly choke to death because of a small bone in the fish! He did not know how to move the bone from the fish to the front of his mouth.
Thank you for feeding 🐈🐱😸
Another great video Amy.
advise Amy to try Cantonese style raw fish(廣式魚生) in Shunde(順德)， it's more tasty.
YESSSSSSSSSSS thank you for bringing JASMINE back 😃😃😃😃😃😃😃
Taupo lake New Zealand also have rainbow trouts. Locals also eat them raw.
推荐你吃一 丽江的斑鱼火锅，也是这种薄鱼片，下锅刷一下就拿上来吃，非常好吃~~~ 说到鱼头，那必须是我们东北的铁锅炖的了，鱼头豆腐~~~~~ 不过我最怀念的还是我们东北的大马哈鱼，腌制后的鱼加上黄豆一起炖，太下饭了~~~~
damn, my girl Jasmine's back. she's absofxxkinglutely breathtaking n cute like a button.
You don't know what you missed. Just a few kilometers ahead, that’s 箭扣 great wall( Wild great wall ).
Ooooh that sashimi looks sooo good 🤤😋😜 I would love to have few orders please! Haha… 😂🤣🤪
So so so good!!!
jasmine is such a wonderful girl! Love her!
Well done. I wanted to be the first person to compliment this video.
Thank you!!
@@BlondieinChina You're welcome.
Nicely cooked fish. Love to go to this place when i am in Beijing. 😋😋😛😛
Not exactly, in recent years almost all non bullet trains have been painted in green. However, the only the 25B train that doesn't have AC is the really nostalgic green train in China.
现在的K都刷成绿皮了，以前都是不带字母的车次是绿皮，老的绿皮车可以开窗，没有空调，只有个风扇来回的吹。
@@一切顺利-z8z 对 高祖绿
share location so tourist can go try.
Hey look, blue skies
Ahhh Jasmine...Ahh so dreamy
just falling in love with jasmine! she's very cute!
Jasmine is so cute ❤️
Ami, sushi rice is not that special, well, but need to be stired through sugar and white vinegar, which would hint out the flavour of seafood it carries.
Amy got a can of Pringle’s for being good, Jasmine got duck heads…the next big thing should be Pringle’s cans of duck heads. Let’s demand it, consumers! 😄
Beautiful fish
man of culture
Even the slow vintage trains of China can beat Amtrak by a light-year.
The faces of the cats 🐁
Wondering if its dangerous consuming raw FRESH water fish....looks delish though...
And a good eating companion Jasmine! And such pretty eyes!
You guys almost have matching sweaters like twins too!
Two pretty girls,😍😍😍😍I love you both💖
I once took one of those Z trains from Chengdu to the south chinese sea. Also a whopping 30 hours train ride. Not the most comfortable ride, but it would have been alright if it wasnt for a lot of people smoking on the train. Felt like sleeping in a bar, except i wasnt drunk xd
Head and eye is the best part of the fish.
like in Canada!! wow!!!love it
Sushi rice is seasoned with vinegar and sugar.
I prefer the raw fish in guangdong province. you can try that on a trip to shunde, zhongshan, shenzhen, guangzhou, etc.
Yes, I am jealous... wow... it looks sooo delicious... I am like you, I love sashimi...
I'm surprised to know Shan Bar is still opening, last time I went there was more than 14 years ago.
I am shocked too. I even didn't remember its name before reading your msg
Other : enjoy watching the food
Me: learning English
5:33 ninja photo bomb in the background. 😝😝😝
Jasmine is pretty!
jasmine so cute
jasmine好漂亮呀
Did you get food poisoning?
Jasmine is so beautiful. She has stolen the show. I couldn't take my eyes off of her.
HAHA! I should ask Jasmine to marry me. :-)
Jasmine says hi :) and thanks hahahahah
thanks but no thanks
No Amy is better
@@KirbyWithHair No one is better. It's just a matter of preference.
I wish the border would open up soon
cats stole the show. so cute
Haha I played paintballs so many times at the place you ate Sashimi.
