Julia said she liked Chengdu before, but the food in Chengdu is actually quite spicy. Guangzhou is the most famous food city in China. The taste is light and there are many desserts, which is especially suitable for foreigners. Julia is a vegetarian and the food in Guangzhou Province suits her best.

wow, you are so amazing to find Shunde which is famous for cantonese food. actually I didn't see any youtubers visit Shunde yet. BTW, Qinghui garden is one of top 10 garden in China, it's better to show more scenery in your video. Next time you can use google translator to talk with the locals to ensure you order the right food.
Also - we ordered one dessert and then she kept recommending desserts, but eventually brought meat (whoops!) It was a strange addition to our order! aha!
@@VeggiesOnTour I think the auntie want to recommend the best food for you but she didn't know you are veg only. you said you will visit the rural area of China in the future, I highly recommend you print "only eat veg without any meat" in Chinese. you can easily find the printing store on the street (only 1~2 Yuan) or asked the hotel to help you. keep in mind, a few ethnic group live there, as a Chinese we even don't understand what the old people said, that mean google translator doesn't work sometimes. you need bring the paper with you to ensure you order the correct food.
The 5 round ones are Shunde's local Mingqi Shunde fish tofu...containing fish meat to make isinglass...The most famous vegetarian food in China is called "Zhai", which is a gluten product, sweet, sour, and spicy. Tasty, curry-flavored vegetarian barbecued pork, vegetarian roast goose, etc. are guaranteed to leave you with an aftertaste!
you guys need to save an image of the chinese character for vegetarian 素 on your phone so you can easily show when ordering. nice you finally made it out of big cities to smaller town china 😅
Welcome to my paternal hometown Shunde, where growing up as a little kid born in Guangzhou, I visited several times to worship ancestors. It’s also the hometown of Bruce Lee. It’s where they train Cantonese chefs. Greetings from Los Angeles. ❤❤❤
Watching you two eat is like a scene from a movie - Giulia eating like a royalty, always so graceful and Patrick looking like he's in a food commercial, savouring every bite! 😆
The garden poses many typical elements for chinese landscape design : pavilion, zig-zag bridge, temples, koi pond, grotesque rocks, it has a lot of photo opportunities there.
As a Cantonese, we often say, "For food, go to Guangzhou; for chefs, they come from Fengcheng." Fengcheng refers to Shunde. Renowned Cantonese chefs have traditionally come from Shunde, and Cantonese people also enjoy going there for authentic Cantonese cuisine. I'm quite surprised that you know to seek out the flavors of Shunde, though it's a pity you don't eat meat. Shunde is famous for its fish dishes.
@@VeggiesOnTour It's a shame that there's no Chen Village rice noodles here in the U.S. Last month when I was back in Guangzhou, I had it many times. It was so delicious.
Hi VeggiesOnTour, if you want to try the "best" vegetarian meals, GD, Shunde, Foshan have plenty, just make large this character and show to the person, 素 = vegetarian
Wow! You guys are so cool? How did you know about Shunde? From UNESCO? Or? Hmm... I guess even a lot of Chinese don't know about this place as the gastronomy city in China. Indeed, Shunde food is probably the best. There are more. They are healthy and delicious. In fact, if you go into the details, there are more than meets the eye. For example, there are all kinds of soups they make in Shunde, tonics that are so healthy and nutritious... Cantonese food is already the best and Shunde is a gem among the gems. 😋 😋 😋
Haha love this! Giulia does her research, really well! ahaha! We have to be savvy as we are vegetarians, so when there is a gastronomy city - we must go! We are HUGE foodies, believe it or not and love it! We would eat everything but we gave up meat 7 years ago! Saying that, we aren't completely strict and I've eaten a few odd pieces of meat and fish over the years - but we try to avoid it if we can! Wow the tonics sound incredible!
@@VeggiesOnTour If you are a vegetarian, you should translate the Chinese characters for vegetarian in advance, so that all the shop assistants will understand your needs.
Hi what you could do is in the future use picture like put a cross x on "meat" and tick ✅ yes on vegetables. Bring 2 picture ☺️. and the next line might be tricky to say "I dont eat meat" "wo pu che rou" use Google translate to learn the what is Mandarin sounds like. ☺️ Hope that's help... I'll figure out see if I can help you more. Keep posted with more video. or yes learn how to say yes and no on Google translate Yes sound in Mandarin I think is "tui" No sound in Mandarin I think it's either "pu tui" or "chuo" "chuo" could be mean wrong. So yeah once you got use to how to say yes and no ofcos posh Mandarin sound accent like then you be alright. I'll think 🤔 of some more haha.
FYI, when you order vegetarian food in China, you can say: 素食 su4shi1, or 我吃素 wo1 chi1 su4. 👍。 there are tons of vegetarian cuisines in China, have fun.
Haha we didn’t mix them in the big bowl cause Giulia doesn’t like some of the ingredients like the raw onions, so we mixed them later into our own bowls 😅
@@VeggiesOnTour of couse, living in state of California, I loved the impossible burger from burger king :) , my point is that those meat substitute could be so enticing it would corrode your value as a veggie
@zhangjin7179 not at all! We try to avoid mock meat most of the time only because it’s processed food at the end of the day, but the fact that you can enjoy the flavour of meat without the bad sides of it it’s definitely a plus 😅
Health reasons! It's healthier to be vegetarian! Also we work very hard to create vegetarian content (it's not easy!) - we have to work harder than any other TH-camrs. It's so easy when you eat meat and fish - when you can't eat either, you have to be clever! I appreciate your comment and there is nothing wrong with people eating meat! Everyone should be free to eat what they like 😁
Hahaha! We don't have any intolerances, however Giulia can't eat Fava Beans due to Favism (it's not an allergy but a deficiency that effects many across the globe)
You should learn the administrative hierarchy of the Chinese cities and towns. By the way, 顺德 can be pronounced as shun4 der2 The fourth tone and second tone for these two characters. You did not pronounce correctly for the 2nd character.
If you are vegetarian, you should always tell the food provider "wo ci shu"(我吃素)，which means" I am a vegetarian). Or, "wo bu ci rou"(我不吃肉)， which means "I don't eat meat". You should memorise it or at least write it down. The "chi" in "hao chi" has an almost inaudible "h". "chi" is pronunced lightly with high tone instead of heavily with low tone. The "de" in shunde sounds like "the" not "day".
We drink milk, eat eggs and cheese! We even sometimes eat meat broth if we cannot have it without. We are vegetarians for health reasons. We are not vegan! Also we think everyone should be free to eat whatever they like including meat!
Unfortunately not, we are vegetarians for health reasons, so the odd meat broth doesn't kill us - but yes we try to avoid eating meat (we previously ate meat). We respect meat-eaters and we think everyone should be free to eat what they like! 🙏
It would be helpful if you inform the restaurants that you are vegetarians. The restaurant will be happy to promote the proper meal and not waste meat in your food recommendation. Vegetarian food is a proud and popular cuisine option in China, with links often to the buddhist tradition.
When you go into an ice-cream parlour and order ice-cream and they recommend other dishes to you - you don't expect them to bring meat dishes to you, do you? We were being polite and accepted all of her dessert recommendations, it turns out the last recommendation was a meat dish (which we weren't aware of), the dishes she brought previously were all dessert. She was just trying to make extra bucks - we were being polite. In British culture, we always accept invitations - it's rude to refuse. 😁😅
The triangular-shaped white sugar cake has a smooth and slightly sweet taste. It also has a brother called yellow sugar cake, which has a smooth and slightly sweet taste!!

Oooh - when we're back in Shanghai, we'll let you know - we're on Douyin too these days! PG看中国

It can be AMAZING! Although there isn't much Roti Canai nor banana leaf here!
@@VeggiesOnTour hahaha.. well they do have their own version I'm sure of it
It's always good to be vegetarian. Healthy and good for environment! Everyone should become vegetarian.
Cantonese food is popular around the world😊
It's very true - we have it in the UK but it's not anywhere as good as it is in Guangdong!

为什么素食的人可以吃牛奶？
vegetarian: no meat
vegan: nothing animal
小時後就喝母乳。怎麼了😂😂😂😂
有很多種素食者，有的純素，不吃跟動物有關的食物，即便不傷害生命，像是奶跟蛋；有的可以吃奶吃蛋；有的西方人把魚也當素食。:D
中國素食者可以喝牛奶，主要是因為取奶沒有傷害到動物的生命，但以前的蛋是受精卵，會孵出小雞，所以以前素食者不吃蛋，但是現在的雞蛋大都是不會孵出小雞的蛋(未受過精，養雞場裡沒有放公雞)，所以有些素食者也開始吃蛋。
但是西方的全素也就是最近10多年才流行的純素食者vegan, 認為牛奶跟蛋也是壓榨到動物，雞在籠子生蛋不人道，牛奶被人擠了小牛就喝不到，不人道，所以不吃。:D
現在雞蛋也開始要求用平飼的方式養雞，也就是雞有一個很大的活動空間，最理想的是能在戶外放養，但大部份做不到，只能在一間大屋子裡放養。聽說歐盟已規定蛋雞只能用平飼方式飼養，不能用籠子養。
We drink milk, eat eggs and cheese! We even sometimes eat meat broth if we cannot have it without. We are vegetarians for health reasons. We are not vegan! Also we think everyone should be free to eat whatever they like including meat!
