🇨🇳 GuangZhou Street Food Feast (First Meal in China After Nearly 4 Years!!)

  • Southern China loves few things more dearly than the sour and fiery combination of pickled chilies and fried meats. For our first meal, we order FIVE different variations of GuangZhou local flavor.
    Fresh from the airport we are rushing straight into the street food action, but besides the urge to fill some hungry bellys I want to say THANK YOU in many ways for helping us make this trip a reality.
    For the entire world, the years 2021-2022 were a challenge, there's no doubt about it, but we all have to realize that the average every day citizens of China have lived even tougher lives than most. Things that we will talk about later (in an upcoming video along the lines of "Can You Still Travel in China in 2023?"), regardless of any larger opinions on politics or anything like that, the simple fact of how difficult it is for Li to even make it back home to visit her own family I think it needs to be said immediately HOW excited we are to be on this trip, and again how THANKFUL we are for several situations that have happened to make this trip possible.
    Thank you for being a part of any of that for us, this visit is not for the purpose of filming a bunch of videos about Chinese food (although of course I will do that, as it is what I do for a living now), we are so happy to have time to reconnect with family and visit both family and friends whom we've not seen in a long time.
    It is a real challenge to stay active online, things here have gotten much more strict in terms of internet security, and so I will answer all your questions and comments soon :). Be grateful with me that at least I found a way to upload this video!! And have a wonderful day, just BECAUSE :). just because we are alive. Speak soon!
    Love Joel and Li
    LOCATION:
    Google Maps doesn't work very well in China, so... here we go :). We stayed at the SUPER 8 Hotel that was about 2km directly West of the GuangZhou South high-speed rail station. From there, you can take a local bus (3rmb), or a DiDi hail taxi (around 25rmb), and look for the "Important Coffee" cafe (the opening scene of this video). From there, continue walking about 100m to the nearest intersection, and explore any of the 3 branching streets blossoming with street food locations... Our restaurant was about 2 minutes walk past the intersection, a dark yet inviting street on the left.
    PRICE OF THIS MEAL:
    82 RMB (12$US) (400THB)

    Elbows in was mandatory while I was incarcerated.

      John! Man, really appreciate this message. Internet is really hard to access here for me by now (my phone card has nearly run out, we are 2 weeks into the trip), Im logging in just once to check today's video and I really appreciate your message. I think this will be the only one I get to respond to today, so its a really good one. Appreciate you sharing a bit about what you've been through, and super cool to hear about your good memories of this friend from China helping you out when you needed it. Thanks to him, and thanks to you also for continuing to look for the positives (and also humour, in many of your other comments :) ), very glad to have your support John! Have a great Thursday today, whatever you're up to, see you for another video next week. Take care!!
