Your neighbors make my heart burst. Please more content with them!! Have them make you meals and teach you how to cook more since you cant go many places. I think a lot of people would enjoy that! Love you Auntie and Uncle!
We appreciate your efforts during a challenging time, Amy! Also, I enjoy using google translate to see what people say in Mandarin - I like that people comment in multiple languages on your videos. I have really nice memories of visiting Beijing several years ago. Your neighbours are precious. I also loved what you said about meeting new people in the park.You are a great ambassador between cultures, and you share those stories in your videos in an endearing way.
Got to be one of your best episodes because it's just shows honest side of covid lockdowns and how you and your neighbors live. Stay safe and keep up the great content. Miss Beijing too😭
I love your video so much, it’s so real, as a Beijing local who can’t go back home for over 3 years, this really makes me homesick….and your neighbours remind me of my childhood when we always had meals with neighbours together…
It's not the quantity of interesting things you're experiencing but the quality of your content that keeps us coming back! Another wholesome video. Love watching the bonds of friendship that you've formed with your neighbors and the locals. That's really what matters and probably what you'll always treasure the most. Cheers✌
By far, one of my favorite videos you’ve ever made! I enjoy watching the food and culture, but it’s your interaction with everyday Chinese people that keeps me coming back again and again.
As soon as Amy said 3 bowls of noodles, mukbang immediately came to my mind 😂. Very nice of you thinking about your neighbors and they seem to be a very lovely couple. Take care everyone and Your content is still amazing despite the current situation in BeiJing.
Thank you for your content, Amy. Your videos inspire me to be more adventurous, learn more Chinese, and try the many foods this country has to offer. Prayers for your family during time. Sending love from Shanghai.
Hi Blondie, I have to say, your optimistic, upbeat attitude makes this video very comforting to watch. Way to go Amy, hope the situation there improves soon.
i’m obsessed w your channel, have been watching your videos for years as i’ve been to china and am an australian learning chinese. always waiting for more videos
Im studying Traditional Chinese Medicine in the States and I got really happy when you started talking about Jing, clearing heat and generating fluids. So cool!
It looks like the food was toned down for the local palates. That might be a series of videos in itself. How different are the Beijing versions from what you have experienced in the actual regions.
Awesome video, laugh a lot watching it, thats something the world need more of these days, hope some Emericans can find your vids and cool off with them too
Hi Amy!🤗 I’ve been following you since you came back to China and, together with all the other followers, I really enjoy your content! ♥️ Watching your videos I’ve been thinking that it must be quite challenging during this time in Beijing (like it is for all us). Me and my husband are expats in Beijing, I hope it doesn’t sound too odd, but we would like to invite you for dinner one day! We are in Dongcheng, probably in the near of your place:) I don’t know to cook anything Chinese, but I surely know how to cook delicious Romanian dishes 🇷🇴
I am really impressed with Amy's Mandarin! How is it possible to improve so much in such a short time. It doesn't look like she has to think about it first in English and make a translation into Chinese.
China is incredibly diverse with all their different ethnic groups, dialects, cultures, cuisines its like a mini UN. Thanks Blondie for showing us all of these. Keep travelling and posting.
@@junxu7449 Just because a lot of people look Chinese dont mean they are. There are 56 ethnic groups and in almost every small town and city people have their own local culture. 2 Cities next to eachother could also have different dialects. You cant find this kind of diversity in any other country. Prove me wrong.
@@adamproctor9315 99.99% Hans ??? Lol prove Robin wrong. It's 92% Han, they are allowed to speak their dialect, you havent watched Katherine journey to the east ?
Sorry, but I've got friends from Inner Mongolia who have been refused permission to speak their dialect/language. I also have Man zhu friends who cannot speak manchu anymore. I also know Hui who are not allowed to speak their Turkic language together, and are forced to learn in Mandarin and if they speak anything else in the class they get hit....
About Gui Zhou Mansion (贵州大厦) - the building is actually owned & operated by the government of Gui Zhou province. It is a venue for people from that province to do business in Beijing. And for every province, there is a mansion similar to this. These are great places to sample food from those provinces, because the chefs are usually hired from the provinces and brought into Beijing (I think key ingredients also). So for example the Xin Jiang Mansion is a great place to get authentic lamb skewers. Another great place - it looks like you are in Dongcheng District so this is accessible for you - is the Si Chuan Mansion. It's my favorite place in Beijing for SiChuan food. Beijing is my home city and watching your videos brings back a lot of good memories. The current pandemic/lockdown situation is unfortunate. Wish you stay safe & positive & keep up the good content!
There are a lot of testing tents in NYC but most seem to not have anyone getting a test. I had never seen a line of people waiting to get tested anywhere. So the real cases may be a lot higher. And then there is monkeypox. Sigh
@@韩鹏-r9b Eh. I was referring to new york city. Good to know about the 48 hr limit in Beijing. Does the trains still run in Beijing for passagers that test covid negative
The key is to start testing and reducing spread at 50, then you never get to 5,000. Exponential growth is so much easier to contain through proactive efforts.
It'll be interesting to introduce Australian food to your neighbours and see their reactions. Having said that in a city like Beijing. They may get more exposure to other nationalities food.
Amy, all your videos are very interesting to watch even if you’re in one single city. It’s great to be able to speak mandarin and best of all, you can read it too. China is the place for you, bravo girl! As for your comment that you can easily make friends in the park, actually who wouldn’t want to talk to a beautiful girl like you!
Hey Amy! Thank you for filming although all the restaurants are closed in Beijing. Love your Neighbor so much! They are lovely people. I would love to try those 冰粉 someday they look really refreshing! Looking forward to seeing your next vlog soon. Take care and stay safe.👍🏻🍜🐟🍲🧡🍮🥄😄👋🏻
When you hear Amy say: ' I've just went online to buy something and it will arrive in 40 minutes...'. Really makes me feel I live in the stone age here in Sydney
😂😂 I live in a similar neighborhood to Blondie and my favorite local foreign grocery store delivers faster than I can walk there, in less than 20 minutes 😂 (Gulou Gourmand)
@@wuhui hmm, more like for the city or selected areas only. lots of metro station areas are not covered, unless you order Uber Eats or something, which would be expensive.
What a pity to see that everywhere, including restaurants, are all closed. Take care of yourself, Miss Amy, I’m sure you will continue to make food vlogs after it is done.
That's how it looks like without the stiffling filter of Chinese top brass hammering out zero-covid policy looming over hapless Beijing people at the expense of their previous civil right!
2 роки тому+28
I feel you. As a documentary photographer in China, i have been travelling in my living room for the last month. A bit depressing
Your neighbors are so lovely! You’re lucky that they get to be your surrogate parents while in Beijing. Keep safe and stay healthy! Greetings from Dallas TX
Blondie your experience in the lockdown in Beijing is so different from whats portrayed elsewhere. Seems like life is pretty normal, given Covid circumstances. No screaming protests and people being hauled off in handcuffs -- and people still enjoying beautiful parks.
Hi Amy, greetings from America! I LOVE your content and this video is superb! I'm perfectly content to watch videos of you getting take away and bringing it somewhere else! Please be safe!
haha you riding with ayi on her bike is so precious🥰 remind me of how i used to ride on the back of my mom's bike when i was a kid.😁 how lucky that you guys have each other as neighbors!!😍
Hi Amy, love watching you and your neighbors cooked and enjoyed the fish dishes together. I think this is probably a good new content routine of your vblog that to try some home made Chinese food, when all the restaurants are closed. This will be interesting and actually important part of local culture. Joining your neighbors and local friends to making these food will brings more interactions and different perspectives. Good try. Keep safe and happy :)
After watching this, it's clear that it is not the places you are that attracted me to your videos, it's the happiness, laughter that you created throughout the clip. Keep eating happily.
Covid friendly video ideas as follows! (But let’s be real, I’ll click on 95% of videos you post). Cooking/ trying to recreate your favorite meals, comparing your favorite foods in other provinces to the Beijing style, more videos with your neighbors, vlogs/ day in the life/ what I ate this week, how you decorated and organized your small apartment, unique experiences as an Australian in China, FaceTime your parents and you can ask them Chinese food trivia questions, you can make a vlog and have your parents narrate it, try to find a dessert via takeout that you like more than bing fen, try more drinks may be easier on the go, also I would love to see what grocery stores in China look like! Just some random ideas hopefully you like one :)
The waterfall looks like Huangguoshu. That places has become a really touristy spot. If you go now, it's all built up with wooden platforms for viewing the falls and such. In the 90s/early 2000s there wasn't much built up there. It's still beautiful but you have to go in the rainy season (I know it rains on like 70% of the days).
Someone had said it before that blondie Amy “can sell ice cream to Eskimos”. I’m Chinese and I learned so much about this Chinese food from Amy that I knew nothing about.
Amy: We supposedly have the second largest Chinatown in North America here; only second to the famous one in San Francisco. I am just very curious if Asian cities have a mirror opposite…a Westerntown, or North American Town, hidden somewhere in the streets of Beijing where White people operate restaurants with names like The Mad Grizzly, or The Shy Beaver, or The Reluctant Kangaroo…well, you know what I mean because over here all Chinese restaurants are either some kind of dragon, or phoenix, or lucky this or lucky that. Much love from Canada. -Diane, Vancouver, Canada. MnMA23/22. 08:43 pm
Sadly, the answer is no, or very unlikely. There surely are a lot of restaurants owned by westerners, but it’s way not enough or maybe financially inefficient to be a town or an entire street. In fact, is not just in Asian cities. You might find it’s quite hard to find a Frenchtown (and it’s not even a correct word), or UStown where the immigrant residents and businesses are gathered in western. We do have a germantown nearby, but you know it’s just a name. I think one of the reasons is the tides of immigration in 20th century were mainly from east to west/NA, and having a restaurant is quite a exhausting business which the immigrants had not a lot of choices to live with.
@William J A clown, a really old guy with glasses, and a mermaid. Chinese restaurant owners with the dragons and phoenixes and lotus flowers will be wondering, what's the deal with these White people's food establishments. Much love from Canada. -Diane, Vancouver, Canada. ThMA26/22 12:47 pm
Thanks for another upbeat video during this difficult time. Please keep up your good work. Especially your dine out experience is amazing and delicious 😍😍🖒
love it! totally understand if there is not as much content to share due to being limited in travelling and covid regulations. But i love all the stuff you put out^.^ so keep it up!...I am living my asian travel dreams through you as I'm not able to travel as yet this year due to being a chicken!😆 this I a good thing! hope you can keep making content!!happy thoughts and well wishes to you!^.^
Hi Amy. As a Guizhouness I have to say, the Huaxi neitoufen was like this without red-soup. And the way that local guys eat this is drink the soup first to fast the original flavor and umami. Then we add red peppers and huajiao powder to make it spicer and have it. If you wanna to have niuroufen with red soup(spice soup), you should try An-shun niuroufen, and it is also so good.
Great video Blondie. Loving to see you making and enjoying food from home with locals. Love to see more authentic home cooking. Now it’s probably a good time for it. BTW welcome back.
Best part of the whole video is this : At 9.49, Amy said, "l still think l need to go to Guizhou and eat them." No mountain is high enough, no sea is deep enough and no food is far enough to stop a true foodie from eating it. Amy, you are a true blue genuine "no retreat, no surrender" foodie vlogger❗Respect, salute❗
The building you went to is actually a restaurant of Guizhou zhujing ban 驻京办, every province gov has a office in Beijing to provide some service to the officer from that province, and it always has a restaurant with local taste.
Watching your video is definitely the most important thing I expect to do in every week 🥰 plz try 鲜芋仙 as well if you like冰粉 you may also like 仙草😘😘 it's a kind of taiwanese sweet
I just subscribed to your channel just now, ever since I saw your video being posted in Unilad page , hahaha then I kinda like feel a little jealous how you speak Chinese fluently ..
Amy your neighbours are the best. Love seeing them treat you like family
typish Beijinger, so nice and cool🤠
Your neighbors make my heart burst. Please more content with them!! Have them make you meals and teach you how to cook more since you cant go many places. I think a lot of people would enjoy that! Love you Auntie and Uncle!
it gives me great joy that you spend such a lovely time with your neighbours.
it's cute that the auntie is being super skeptical about the uncle's promise about wanting to cook for auntie for a change now that he's retired.

Hi Amy.
As a Guizhouness I have to say, the Huaxi neitoufen was like this without red-soup.
And the way that local guys eat this is drink the soup first to fast the original flavor and umami.
Then we add red peppers and huajiao powder to make it spicer and have it.
If you wanna to have niuroufen with red soup(spice soup), you should try An-shun niuroufen, and it is also so good.
Great video Blondie. Loving to see you making and enjoying food from home with locals. Love to see more authentic home cooking. Now it’s probably a good time for it. BTW welcome back.
Your positivity is admirable, I am sooo done with lockdowns and testing. Luckily my country agrees, we now live normally like in 2019.
Stay safe, always good to see you! 🙆♀️
Anytime you hear "clearing heat" it basically means alkalized, and anytime you hear "hot" it means acidic.
Nice video, Amy, as always. Stay safe and look forward to your next week's food adventure.
Amy is really popular in China, I wish Amy can overcome the problems in Beijing ASAP.
Best part of the whole video is this : At 9.49, Amy said, "l still think l need to go to Guizhou and eat them." No mountain is high enough, no sea is deep enough and no food is far enough to stop a true foodie from eating it. Amy, you are a true blue genuine "no retreat, no surrender" foodie vlogger❗Respect, salute❗
年度最佳吃货宣言！
You are genius
The building you went to is actually a restaurant of Guizhou zhujing ban 驻京办, every province gov has a office in Beijing to provide some service to the officer from that province, and it always has a restaurant with local taste.
Love the neighbors!

建议等北京这波疫情过后，艾米可以做一系列探访各地驻京办的美食之旅，除了贵州外，还可以去体验一下四川、重庆、新疆、乌鲁木齐（与新疆不是一家）等等，可能会有意外的惊喜。
