    BEST Street Food in China - Chinese Street Food - China Street Food. You’ll be mesmerized watching these delicious Street Food baozi being scraped out of the DEEP tandoori oven in Turpan, China. We arrived specifically to try the best street food in China, on our great Silk Road journey to the deep west of China. There is a whole new cuisine and street food selection available here, and you can travel here and enjoy it all! Immediately after you arrive, Xinjiang really makes you feel like you’ve entered a whole new street food world, a new street food universe! Eating the street food here is definitely one of the best Chinese food experiences you can have, and is 100% some of the best street food around the world!

    We traveled on the long distance train all the way from Chengdu, in Sichuan province, to Xining, and then onwards to Turpan, and as soon as we arrived in Turpan, we dove deep into the street food scene and tried our hardest to eat all of the western china street food dishes. A lot of the dishes we tried really reminded me of central asian street food. The insanely delicious hand made roast baozi in this street food video was definitely of the best street foods that I’ve tried in China! So far, I’ve tried and sampled street food in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, Chengdu (in Sichuan province), and all around china, but after coming here to Turpan in Xinjiang in deep western China, I was blown away at how delicious it was and can say that this is definitely one of the best street foods around the world!
    Everything we tried, and in particular these roast baozi, made by baking them deep in a tandoori oven, was really cheap. The local language is Uighur, but I got by with Mandarin Chinese, although it would have been a little better if I studied a little Uighur language to have some better interaction with the locals. Overall, our experience in Turpan eating delicious street food was amazing! It is definitely one of the best street food cities we've been to in 2017!
    Here are the locations in this street food video:
    1) Kao baozi AKA Samsa AKA roast beef buns (INSANELY DELICIOUS baozi baking) -
    2) Meat feast and Uighur specialties dinner - featuring hand pulled noodles and hand grasped mutton as well as Polo, central asian Pilaf! -

    HUGE THANKS to ExpressVPN for offering all Food Ranger viewers 3 months free and 49% off their yearly package using this link: ExpressVPN.com/Thefoodranger . Travelers need ExpressVPN to stay safe online and to unblock any site. I personally use it for Netflix, even while at home in Canada, but also while traveling to unblock content and episodes that are geoblocked, and I also use it for security, because airport wifi and hotel wifi is often very insecure, leaving my data vulnerable. By connecting to one of their servers around the world, it’s just like my computer or phone is in that location, and all data sent while connected to their VPN is secure, safe, and private from others to see, so I know that my data won’t be hacked or looked at by others. Thanks so much for watching, and we have tons more videos coming up for you! Please leave me a comment below letting me know what you thought about this episode, thanks so much!!!

    People have asked me in the past, what is my favorite Chinese cuisine? Answer, Xinjiang Cuisine. It's the perfect blend of thousands of years of turkic/middle eastern/Chinese style cooking molded into one.
    That "rice pilaf" is out of this world, I've never had anything like it. That natural soft melt in your mouth lamb fat and meat, mixed with the sweetness of carrots which tastes and has more of a texture of pumpkin. That "kao baozi" bread is like a mix between a bagel, croissant, and pizza crust. Outside it's got that char and crisp, next layer is chewy, and last layer is puffy/foldy like a croissant (but not as light).
    This is just a small portion of many, of my favorites was a lamb meat pie that was seasoned with raisins. Really unique flavor, but that crust was amazing.

    In some ways, it's super awkward for me when I go to China every year because although I am half English-Chinese and live in England, I look completely like a Xinjiang person... Whenever I start to speak Sichuanese they are impressed and tell me my Sichuanese is really good for a Xinjiang person, so when I tell them I'm actually English-Chinese they are super shocked LOL
    Another story is- whenever I walk past Xinjiang people selling street foods in Chengdu, they always shout things at me because even they think I'm one of them and then they expect me to understand Uyghur XDD
