"You can tell I am not professionally trained" Are you even kidding me? Watching your channel is what changed my life and got me into cooking. I went from someone who knew nothing about cooking, and yet your videos are so beginner friendly! thank you for teaching me how to cook for my family!!
Mandy, I love your videos. I cooked many of your recipes, and my neighbors thought one time that I bought the food from a restaurant. That’s how good your recipes and presentations are. If a Lebanese guy can cook such good Chinese dishes, it’s a testament to your world-class cooking and teaching talents. Thank you so much.
Oh, and I also wanted to mention that my mother & I always loved to go out & eat Chinese food. But now she is 83 years old & bed bound with Alzheimer's. She would often ask me for some of her favorite dishes. That's how I discovered you. And when she eats it, she will say thank you for going to the restaurant & picking it up. She thinks that I ordered it & not made it. So thanks for giving me the gift to make my Mother happy.
Hi 😍that was very nice of you to share with us a little bit about yourself. I just love ❤️the energy that you give off. Thank you so much for all your wobderful recipes. I absolutely love Asian 🍚🥢food😊👍
This is one my favorite channels! As far as that pork belly goes, give it time and you will conquer that mean pork belly! We're all here to support you, so you could do a pork belly show soon!
Because of you, sweet girl, I now have Shaoxing cooking wine, dark soy sauce, Lee Kum Kee Oyster Sauce and Fish Sauce in my pantry, andI use them - often! Your teaching is thorough and clear and you have taught me so much. ❤️ Thank you!!! Sending you lots of love from California.
You are absolutely one of a kind in terms of cooking, I love you, I love you how to cook, and you english is good Ang your explanation it is better to understand.
I just love you. I don't mean it in a weird way. You just seem to be a really nice person. Your videos are so fun, and you're so friendly. Thank you for sharing! God bless!
Your channel is my favorite Chinese cuisine cooking channel. In fact, I stopped watching others because I found your tips really practical and helpful and works(!) it’s hard to believe you’re not professionally trained.
I just wanna say I love your channel. It is for sure in my top 5 favorite cooking channels of all time and definitely one of the very few best chinese cooking channels out there.
You know what I love about you and your videos? You are peaceful, elegant in your movements and funny, all at the same time. You lift my spirits every time. Thank you.
You are a fantastic teacher. I'm your #1 fan. You taught me so much about ingredients and technic. I love how you cook so healthy. Blessings to you and yours.😎👋🏼🤍
It was so nice to hear your story. It is obvious you love cooking & teaching. You don't have to go to school if you have passion & dedication. You are a great teacher, explaining step by step, the reasons why, showing the product's you use (which is so helpful when shopping) & offering alternatives. I am also enjoying learning how to cook chinese. Because nobody ever showed the real way to cook it. Only the Americanized way. If you wanted Chinese for dinner you had to go out. Know I can create authentic, yummy Chinese cuisine! The Asian store lady always smiles at me. I just show her a screenshot of an item you used & she goes & gets it for me. Please continue your great recipes. Don't stress out on perfecting them. And YES to a cookbook!
I bought your wok and like it better than the one I had. Tbh, I'd rather watch your videos than have another cookbook. Thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself.
If you are in Melbourne, or visit Melbourne, go to the Flower Drum restaurant in China Town. Highly recommended and rated in the top 10 restaurants in the world.
That wooden coffee table behind you is just stunning. Work of art. Please be safe. This is a crazy time to come to the US. You seem so nice. Congratulations and well wishes. Thank you for all your tips and advice.
Mandy, what you said around 3:00 is one of my favorite reasons for your Channel.when I saw how much research you did and using such explanations for authentic Chinese ingredients, I signed up to be a patreon.I'm very proud of you and the work you put out. You are a very humble, pretty and very talented and enlightening young lady. Thanks for just being you!
I love that you are totally real and relatable because many of us try and try something and we cry too when it gets so frustrating!!! Sending big hugs.
Oh my goodness, I just purchased a Craft Wok a few days ago before I knew this channel even existed. I also just purchased your wok. I can't wait to get it. I just found this channel and I love it.
Mandy, been a vegetarian for the last 50 years. I simply omit or use meat substitutes in your recipes and they turn out great. Thank you !!!!! I visit your channel often because your videos are well done. Your recipe directions and narrations are precise and easy to follow and you have a wonderfully adorable personality !!!!!!! 😀😀😀
I totally needed this video! Sheds so much light on the background of who you are. Thank you for being so open in sharing yourself, Mandy. I think you're absolutely awesome. So amazing!!
Mandy, you are a naturally gifted cook and a wonderful teacher. I hope your arthritis is well under control. Listening to your pork belly story was an eye-opener (and tear jerker, lol.) I will certainly purchase your cookbook.
My dear, all yr videos r already very good.I cook Chinese all the time, mainly Cantonese, yet I'm learning so much from you.I'm 66yrs old this year n still learning.So, don't be too hard on yourself, my dear, you r doing great already.No pressure to make everything PERFECT because nothing will be.Your enjoyment in the cooking process will be our enjoyment n learning.Take care n God bless!
What a completely captivating and charming young woman! I appreciate that you are not classically trained and cook from what you have learned from family members as you have progressed. You and your husband are what makes the United States a great Country!!! Thank you for sharing your story, your recipes and your delightful personality! I wish you much success! Can't wait to see that cook book. :)
I live in the California desert. My sister lives in Orange Park, Florida. She would complain about the Chinese food tasting like T.V. dinners. SHE LOVED IT !!!!! Now anytime you post a new video, I get a notice from you AND one from her. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK I have arthritis too. Sometimes it hurts WORSE than other times. No matter what, KEEP ON MOVING !!!! The moment YOU give up due to pain, depression sneaks in to steal ALL of the JOY in your life and EVERYONE around you.
Yea now I know where and how come you know how to cook so many kinds of dishes. You may come from a humble beginning but you end up benefitting from your experiences .Enjoyed all your videos.
Mandy, you are the BEST!! Keep up the great work because you do such a wonderful job of helping educate other countries about Chinese cuisines!! Please stay safe!!
Congratulations on getting married! I can’t wait until your cookbook is published. I love watching your cooking channel. It is so easy to follow your instructions. I also have attempts to cook one dish many time and finally came out ok after the third year. Good luck on your cookbook!
Mandy, I love your videos! I love the way you talk, your accent, your in-depth explanations of everything, etc. And your recipes ridiculously delicious. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your talent and food with us! Congrats on your wedding!
Thank you again Mandy you are so sweet and the way you explained the recipes so detailed so professionally I enjoyed listening to you and I have made so many dishes through your instructions thank you again👍
What is so attractive about you Mandy is your humbleness, your originality and simplicity. There is no vanity in you or in your cooking. And the biggest: your constant smile... Hugs from Canada!
Please, please... put many many recipes of traditional Chinese fermented foods in your cookbook. I love them and have realized that many Chinese recipe books, for westerns, don't include homemade versions of these foods and instead direct readers to stores. I really enjoyed knowing more about you, you seem to be so kind and peaceful.❤
Lovely. Keep up the good work. I have always respected the Chinese work ethic. When I was young my best friend was Chinese and he was the hardest working person I new. He was always up early helping his family before school and after school he helped in the market gardens then did homework before bed. He always achieved great results through hard work and was always polite to everyone. The whole family contributed to the community. New Zealand.
Thanks for sharing about your self. You're a down to earth person, ,simple but very interesting and that makes you inspirational. More power to you and God bless.
Mandy, you are such a delight. I have truly enjoyed learning from you since I found you on yt awhile back. 💗 Thank you for sharing about yourself. Congratulations on your Wedding. Much affection to the Bride and Groom. Live Long and Prosper.💗🎉🙏💪🏼🇺🇲💗 Welcome to the USA. I look forward to using your new cookbook. 🌿🌺🍀🏵️🌱
Wonderful to know more of your background and it sure reflects on your skills in cooking. You're one of my go to channel when I wanted to search for Chinese cooking or just to follow how you make it as well as the techniques that you do to give more flavor and to get better results.
Thank you again dear Mandy so much! Your videos are just wonderful! Best wishes to you and your husband! So sorry for your arthritic difficulty! If it's rheumatoid arthritis there are at least two I know of; the one my wife chose about 15-20yrs ago is 'Remicade' or 'Remicaid"...it truly works! If you've no health insurance it's quite expensive! However we had very good insurance and it truly worked! Maybe by now there's available new and much better types!...Please investigate dear Mandy!Best wishes to you!
Thank you for sharing, nice to know a little about you. I love your recipes and how you present them. I've cooked many and my husband loves them. When he sees me going with rice he is happy to wait for dinner.
You get the sense from your videos that you consider each part of the dish per how the home cook would approach it and I cannot tell you how much that is appreciated. How you explain the ingredients and the smaller steps makes Chinese cuisine approachable for many. Otherwise, we're sort of left to watching a tv chef that's made one dish 10,000 time over the years and never really goes into the details or how one does so in a normal kitchen. Which, takes the fun out of thing as you have to somehow re-engineer the recipe and that never ends well. You, however, are like watching an aunt/artist at work and I love it. :)
Thank you dear Mandy! You have taught others so very much! You are truly so very intelligent! You are doing so very well! You have a great business mind foe sure! I predict you will soon be a tremendous success! Best wishes ❤️ to you and your family!...Your videos/ shows are very enjoyable and informative and professional! ...Best of luck to you and yours!
Believe me, Mandy. I totally get the arthritis thing. I'm dealing with rheumatoid arthritis and there are days when it can get very unpleasant. Still, I don't let it get me down. I thank you for sharing a little about yourself. Late congratulations on your marriage! I wish you both the best and much happiness too!
I really love that you explain not only the how in what you're doing but more importantly the why behind what you're doing. This is a sign of a very good teacher. That is the reason for the 1M + subscribers. You make it easy to learn how to cook all these sumptuous recipes. You are very straightforward and honest, for example, you tell your viewers that a certain ingredient can be expensive, you offer substitutions, and you even once remarked a very honest opinion that you will not repeat a recipe and would rather buy them outside... I believe that was the 5 day process rice dish :) I am very happy and excited to watch your subscribers growing. Though, I cannot be a patreon subscriber, I make it a point to watch all your videos and give them a thumbs up, hoping that that way, I am able to help your channel. All the best and more power to your channel!!!
Ms. Mandy, you just broke the hearts of all your single viewers! 😂 Welcome to the US, congratulations on your marriage and thank you for sharing your recipes.
I love your channel and how you explain the why, not just the how! And I agree with everyone, you are such a sweet human being, and it is a joy to feel like I am sitting with my sister in the kitchen learning:)
Congratulations on getting married! I am thrilled about your cookbook, what I love about your recipes that you talk about in this video is how each of them carry certain knowledge about certain ingredients or cooking methods. Not only do I get to enjoy a great meal but I learn something new from you. Thank you ❤️
Excellent story, you bring so much love to so many families. Remember, happiness is about bringing families and friends together for dinner and you accomplished that. Many thanks!
I love that you have done this on your own for the most part, and have learned along the way. Much appreciated and love your attitude and how you are so honest about preparation. It takes such hard work and hope you continue in your success!! Congrats!!!
As a native US citizen with Chinese immigrant wife (we met at work in US), just want to tell you that we love your content, we're happy for your success and very proud of how much you've accomplished. Best wishes for your continued success.
You have incredible attention to detail thanks for that I have a Chinese Cookbook I bought many years ago I was never able to use it because I did not understand it you have helped in this respect
Cooking has always been part of my family life. My great grandfather came from china around 1900. And as far as i know my grandfather and his siblings worked by selling/cooking chinese foods. And so did my father, we opened chinese food at our house. I learned cooking just by watching him cooks like a pro 😄 I like to watch your video because i feel it is the original recipes from the land of my ancestors. Though you said you never go to the culinery school, but i believe experience made you cook like a pro. Just like my dad. Congratulation for your wedding. Wish you all the best. 😘
I enjoy your recipes and cooking because you know important ingredients and techniques explained very clearly and simply. Also, you are very sweet and happy!
Thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself. I have been watching your channel for a while now. I and my sister cook one of your recipes once a week or every 2 weeks. I usually meet up with her on my days off to cook your recipes. I'm interested in your cook book. I'll be waiting. Thank you again
Congratulations! Here’s wishing you and your new husband long and happy life together. And hope you’ll be happy too in Florida. Unfortunately it’s humid in most part of Florida, not good for arthritis. But then, constant sunshine is beautiful too. Love all of your recipes so keep them coming!
Your skills and experience on cooking is so amazing! I like how you demonstrate and giving tips very well inform from preparation to cooking! Keep up the good work! Love from 🇵🇭
You are so charismatic, love your tips. I found one of your older recipes just weeks ago, and I have been following you. I love that you are still posting great new recipes and techniques.
Hi Mandy... Thank you for sharing your story. Love your shows and your delightful personality that shines through. Not being professionally trained is an asset in your show because you understand the frustration of the home cook. I almost cried when you spoke of trailing your pork belly Recipe, but you strike me as a person that will not let failure defeat you. Like Winston Churchill said “Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts” So chin up and continue your great work & I look forward to your cookbook.
I love this comment ❤️ very well said. I found this channel a few months ago. I find Mindy to be such a great encouragement to me and that I too can cook. I actually think professional training would had held her back. She is in a league of her own and most likely knows more than professionally trainers. Thank you Mindy!
You really are a fascinating person.You have such an instinctive way of understanding food, no wonder you're so good at this! Don't let the pork belly get you down, everyone has that one thing that beats them. Have another go at it when you feel ready.
Congratulations on getting married! I’ve been following you since you started your channel! I remember seeing your subscriber growing every day! I always look forward to your new videos!
I also love to cook and started cooking little things at a time on our farm watching my mother and my older sister. My family and friends love my cooking!
You are a talented person with an awesome personality and your food is wonderful I will definitely keep watching and recommend your channel to my friends
"You can tell I am not professionally trained"
Are you even kidding me? Watching your channel is what changed my life and got me into cooking. I went from someone who knew nothing about cooking, and yet your videos are so beginner friendly! thank you for teaching me how to cook for my family!!

Ms. Mandy, big thumbs up to you for your self control regarding sweets. You're very disciplined. 😄
This was delightful. Thank you for sharing this piece of yourself.
You have incredible attention to detail thanks for that I have a Chinese Cookbook I bought many years ago I was never able to use it because I did not understand it you have helped in this respect
Cooking has always been part of my family life. My great grandfather came from china around 1900. And as far as i know my grandfather and his siblings worked by selling/cooking chinese foods. And so did my father, we opened chinese food at our house. I learned cooking just by watching him cooks like a pro 😄
I like to watch your video because i feel it is the original recipes from the land of my ancestors. Though you said you never go to the culinery school, but i believe experience made you cook like a pro. Just like my dad.
Congratulation for your wedding. Wish you all the best. 😘
I enjoy your recipes and cooking because you know important ingredients and techniques explained very clearly and simply. Also, you are very sweet and happy!
Congratulations on your Wedding❤🥂 I must say I've watched alot of cooking channels. You are one of my favorite, thank u Mandy for all your videos😄
Thank you for sharing a little bit about yourself. I have been watching your channel for a while now. I and my sister cook one of your recipes once a week or every 2 weeks. I usually meet up with her on my days off to cook your recipes. I'm interested in your cook book. I'll be waiting. Thank you again
I really enjoyed this. What a lovely person. You deserve every success in life!
I feel you about the arthritic pain. 25+ years of nursing gave me mine. I was so happy when you posted that ginger candy recipe! It really helps.
Congratulations! Here’s wishing you and your new husband long and happy life together. And hope you’ll be happy too in Florida. Unfortunately it’s humid in most part of Florida, not good for arthritis. But then, constant sunshine is beautiful too. Love all of your recipes so keep them coming!
I love your gentle and elegant way of behaving, i just ordered your wok i ll stay in touche and learn chinese cooking from you, thank you
I purchased your wok, and cooking with it for couple days now, and loving it!❤️🥰
She so kind and generous ☺️
Your skills and experience on cooking is so amazing! I like how you demonstrate and giving tips very well inform from preparation to cooking! Keep up the good work! Love from 🇵🇭
You are so charismatic, love your tips. I found one of your older recipes just weeks ago, and I have been following you. I love that you are still posting great new recipes and techniques.
Hi Mandy... Thank you for sharing your story. Love your shows and your delightful personality that shines through. Not being professionally trained is an asset in your show because you understand the frustration of the home cook. I almost cried when you spoke of trailing your pork belly Recipe, but you strike me as a person that will not let failure defeat you. Like Winston Churchill said “Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts” So chin up and continue your great work & I look forward to your cookbook.
I love this comment ❤️ very well said. I found this channel a few months ago. I find Mindy to be such a great encouragement to me and that I too can cook. I actually think professional training would had held her back. She is in a league of her own and most likely knows more than professionally trainers. Thank you Mindy!
You really are a fascinating person.You have such an instinctive way of understanding food, no wonder you're so good at this! Don't let the pork belly get you down, everyone has that one thing that beats them. Have another go at it when you feel ready.
Congratulations on getting married! I’ve been following you since you started your channel! I remember seeing your subscriber growing every day! I always look forward to your new videos!
I also love to cook and started cooking little things at a time on our farm watching my mother and my older sister. My family and friends love my cooking!
Keep up the excellent work, I enjoy having you to teach us some of your recipes. All of the best to you.
You are a talented person with an awesome personality and your food is wonderful I will definitely keep watching and recommend your channel to my friends
I really admire your ambition. I love your channel and I always have! It’s nice to get to know you a little more. :)
Congratulations on your marriage!
I’m a white guy married to a Hakka wife who grew up in Canton. I hope you do more Hakka dishes. We always have Hakka dishes during Chinese holidays.
