I find it funny that those old customers complain about his not "tasting like his dad's version" but forgot that without his effort and time to learn the skill and take over this business, there would be none in that entire area. Culinary arts is past down. So easy in this day and age for it to go missing and be gone forever......
I was lucky enough to try some 15 yrs ago when I was visiting Hong Kong & randomly saw a small stall pulling dragon beard candy. It was ethereal & wished I had bought a whole box.
I was fortunate to taste them as a kid in the 80's in Toronto on Chinese News Years at a food stall. This Chinese snack is indeed becoming rarer by the day, as the chefs retire without trained apprentices.
I agree with him, you cant replicate another chef as its practically very hard for another chef to replecate the style from original chef unless you have training from a very young age. Its just like when you are making one of your grandma's or grandpa's recepies. Its the same dish, the same way as how grandma or grandpa will make, it taste is the same but somehow its off like its missing something.
When mr Yuen eat the candy, you could see he take pride making them even with a history of failure, he keep strive to a better chef. Thats a whole lot of emotion for a bite.
Don't worry about what people say Kenny, your dad has at least 20 years head start and even if he is still doing it, things will change as material changes over time.
Awesome! Today, there is mostly factory foods and sweets. It's good to see you can still get something made lovingly by hand. China is full of surprises. We hope such skills will endure. In the robot age, they will be the real treasures of civilization.
We call this buddi ke baal(old lady's hair) in India and I used to love eating this as a child, I will surely try more of it if I ever get the chance 👍😊
那真是太棒了。 我希望他是驕傲的。 當然它的味道可能不像他爸爸,但你猜怎麼著,它嘗起來像這個傢伙的創造。 我希望你成為驕傲的人,你所做的真是太棒了。 站得高,记住,你做的东西技术含量高,有创意。 你是個藝術家! That is totally awesome. I hope he is proud. Sure it may not taste like his dads but guess what, it tastes like this guys creation. Be proud man, it is amazing what you do. Stand tall, remember, you do something highly skilled and creative. You are an artist!
This is the same as other candies (Grandma's hair) in other asian countries but this origin as Chinese dessert. This is not the same as Turkish Pismanye (different ingredients/recipe) though the technique is similar.
Hahahahhaha. Those blokes that say this guy's candy isn't like his dad's? ........ THEY'RE STILL HERE GETTING HIS CANDY, RIGHT? 🥳. Don't punk the only guy in town still practicing the master-level craft, yeah?
I agree, religion has been so suppressed because of the CCP. I’ve always been confused about my religion growing up because most of my fam performs buddhist rituals and then they’re like “i’m not religious tho”
I think it's a bit different. Because rambut nenek using sugar from sugarcanes, while dragon beards using corn syrup. Corn syrup make the strands more smooth.
The comments from the older customers is honestly such an old asian person thing to do. My parents do it and my older uncles and aunts do it. It's incredibly annoying and it honestly feels like they can't compliment your work without comparing you to someone else 😭
Reminds me of a quote from Jiro Dreams of Sushi about how Jiro's son would need to be 200% better than Jiro to be considered his equal (or something like that). Nonetheless this dragon beard candy son is my winner for being the only store left in Macau! Would love to try

Don’t be afraid of receiving those negative comments. Like he said, you can’t replicate a chef. Those sweets looks delicious!

Totally
It's the aura
Or you're just missing the person

This is an amazing art. My friends father does this in Toronto, Canada and it is amazing to watch him make it.
Cool guy, respect him for learning the art and bringing it to the next gen

This was my favorite childhood street snack.

Dragon’s beard candy has become a big & popular Korean street food favourite!!!

Your videos are so underrated, you guys deserve way more views!
The authentic hand made stuff looks amazing! Wow.
Don’t be afraid of it tasting different. Old customers always shit talk old stalls. You will attract new customers!
Huhuhu these candies are making me cry....

My heart goes out for him! Keep up the good work you're doing great🥺💓

Wow, it takes me back to that movie: The neverending story with the white dragon.
I remember when I'm a kid.. whenever I eat this...I blow out the powder from my mouth pretend to be dragon hahaha
I miss this in NYC. No where does it any good that isn't boxed from Hong Kong. Fresh is best.
A cantonese dialect. time for no need to rely on subs :P. Thanks for the Video. I love this sweet.
I LOVE THESE CANDY
ha ha....his daughter so cute. has all the candy to eat.
High fructose corn syrup at its best !!! 😂
This was lovely.
Looks like silk worm threads
In Indonesia some called it as "Rambut Nenek" means "Grandma's Hair"
This is really cool
So talented 👍👍
I tasted this sweet in Iran .there they call it Pashmak .
Chef can I ask why my sugar syrup won't get harder even I put on fridge for hours
The products were different
Great video, would be cool to see videos about Chinese religions
I agree, religion has been so suppressed because of the CCP. I’ve always been confused about my religion growing up because most of my fam performs buddhist rituals and then they’re like “i’m not religious tho”
i love eating this
I wonder why UA-cam shadow banned your comment. Can't see it, unless I click "newest first."
@@Terrakinetic 😨😨😨 i didnt know that
Rambut nenek?
I dont know the teksture same or not with rambut nenek in Indonesia.
But i think it look similar
I think it's a bit different.
Because rambut nenek using sugar from sugarcanes, while dragon beards using corn syrup.
Corn syrup make the strands more smooth.
@@kuroyuri04 ow i c. Thx for explanation
Dragon's beard sounds cool, but they look like silk cocoons to me.
The comments from the older customers is honestly such an old asian person thing to do. My parents do it and my older uncles and aunts do it. It's incredibly annoying and it honestly feels like they can't compliment your work without comparing you to someone else 😭
So everything's a dying art these days, hm?
