- Look at that
- Morning guys, John here!
- and Malie!
- Welcome back to the channel
- It is our first full day in Shanghai
- In today's video, we'll be trying some of Shanghai's street food
- First up, let's find some breakfast
- Alright guys, let's go
- We've just stumbled across a vendor selling baos
- or steamed buns
- It looks pretty popular
- So we thought 'Let's try one!'
- Luckily a local helped us order
- because everything is in Chinese
- We couldn't read anything
- and the lady who was selling the buns
- couldn't speak English either
- So it was very hard for us
- but luckily there was a local so Thank You!
- Alright, let's see what we got
- This is the pork one
- Oh yeah
- That's really yummy
- Check this out
- So flavourful
- Sweet and salty
- That's a solid bun
- And these are super cheap!
- One of these buns only cost 1.50RMB
- That's like 20-30c Australian
- That's crazy. Really, really cheap!
- My turn to try the spicy beef bao
- You can see in the shop they were making them fresh
- Let's try it
- Wow!
- It's spicy and the beef is so juicy
- Yum
- This round thing we were told it's a sweet pancake
- It's purple in colour so I'm not sure if it's
- a certain flavour, sweet potato or something
- Let's see
- It's like hollow on the inside
- It's super flaky
- Not really much flavour to it
- But definitely sweet
- I'm not sure if you're meant to eat this with something
- or maybe it's good with some soy milk
- I'd probably get a drink with this next time (it's kind of dry)
- but still worth a try
- Definitely come here for their steamed buns
- Those steamed buns were so good. We're going to grab another two
- They're delicious!
- So good
- Cheers
- 'Hao Chi' I think that's how you say delicious
- Right here in these bags we've got something called JianBing
- It's a savoury crepe
- with a whole bunch of filling in there
- Let's have a look
- Oooo
- First off she puts a crepe mixture onto the crepe pan
- and then she puts a whole bunch of filling in there
- Such as coriander
- some black bean sauce
- I'm not 100% sure though
- This one here also has a Chinese fried doughnut
- The texture
- It's not crispy or anything like that. It's a little soft
- But maybe that's because it was in a bag
- and it's kind of steamed itself
- but look at that, that looks delicious
- Let's give it a bite
- Mmmmmmm
- Oh yeah
- I forgot to mention
- She also cracked two eggs per crepe as well
- That tastes so good
- This is a full carb breakfast here
- but it's delicious and I don't regret it at all
- So saucy
- With a hit of that chilli
- It's hitting the spot right now
- And this place is just a few doors down
- from the steamed bun place we just had
- Also very close to Jia Jia Tang Bao and Yang's Dumpling
- So this street here 'HuangHe Rd'
- Full of street food. Awesome!
- I'm gonna have this one. Malie's going to have that one.
- and then we're going to try the next JianBing
- So I'm going to try the 2nd one which has a crispy cracker in the middle
- I'm excited for this one. I love anything crunchy.
- That crunch!
- I think I like this one better than the other one
- just because of the texture
- Definitely can taste all the sauces in there
- so it's not dry at all
- If you don't like spice, you can get it without the Chilli oil in there
- Whoever invented this, I love you!
- So good!
- There was so much street food
- You can find pastries
- Dumplings
- and scallion pancakes
- It was interesting to see these scallion pancakes
- being made right in front of us!
- After shallow frying
- They're baked furhter under the pan
- So they're nice and crispy
- So we didn't have to walk very for a delicious street food breakfast
- We're all carbed up now and ready to go on with our day
- Now we're off to Xitang Water Town
- On our last video
- We visited the ancient town of Xitang
- One of China's famous water towns
- It is a town full of history
- Ancient architecture
- And interesting street food
- If you missed it, make sure to check it out
- We'll leave a link in the description box below
- Hey guys,
- We've caught the bus back from Xitang Water Town
- and now we're back in Shanghai
- Tonight we're going to explore Yuyuan Gardens
We entered Yuyuan garden and we saw a massive line for these dumplings
- This place is called 'Nanxiang Steamed Bun Restaurant'
-We've got here a
- bucket of pork xiao long baos
- so there's a dozen in here
- and a Giant Pork & Crab XLB
- Look how big that is
- So we have to pour the vinegar in here via the
- This dispenser
- Let's try one
- They basically just dump the whole steamer in here
- That pork filling is really, really tender
- And the soup has a very nice flavour
- It's not too hot
- So you can have it all in one bite
- Let's have another one
- Yep! Would definitely raise these ones.
- They're just as good as the ones we had
- Last night at Jia Jia Tang Bao
- So make sure you check out that video (link in description box)
- This is a quick and easy on the go snack
- So this is the crab and pork
- Gigantic, xiao long bao
- It's so big that you need a straw
- To drink the soup
- Alright, let's try get a hole in there
- Oops. Got it in there!
- Ok I'm going to take a sip of the soup
- I feel so strange doing this
- You can definitely taste that crab flavour in there
- Now I have to figure out how to eat this
- Omg there's still so much soup in there
- I'm gonna biet it
- There not much filling in here
- but you can definitely see
- Some of that crab in there
- Hey guys, so we've made it to The Bund in Shanghai
- and the view of the skyline behind me is amazing
- Omg that are so many people here at The Bund
- trying to takes some good snaps of the skyline
- There are so many people in The Bund tonight
- That there isn't any footpaths for people to walk on
- We have to spill onto the road
- Just trying to find some dinner now
-There are so many choices in Shanghai
- So little time for us to try everything
- We're feeling like some Hot pot tonight
- Hey guys, we're at a restaurance called Hai Di Lao
- on Nanjing Rd in Shanghao
- They're known for their hot pot
- Right now it looks like we're in a waiting room
- It get really packed, especially on a Saturday night
- We've got our ticket. Apparently will take an hour or 2
- In the waiting room they actually serve you these snacks
- so you can get going until your turn for hot pot
- So it's pretty good service there
- Alright guys, so we've ordered our food
- The first thing that has come out is the broth
- We've got 2 different broths here
- One of it looks milky
- It's got some onions and mushroom in there
- and the other one
- is really red!
- I thought it was spicy but I'm not sure now because it has tomatoes in there
- Alright guys, the food has arrived
- We've got a bunch of meats here
- Some fishcakes
- Tofu
- We've got some vegetables just to get that fibre in
- Can't wait to dig in
- The meat looks good and is presently beautifully as well
- Alright let's try!
- Alright guys, we're having an awesome awesome meal here at Hai Di Lao
- We're going to finish off our amazing banquet here
- and we'll see you guys for dessert
- See you guys in a bit
- We're currently in People's Square in front of a shop that sells
- a bunch of Shanghainese
- I think they're dim sum (?)
- Because it looks like they sell sweet and buns and
- The lines always huge
- Malie's just lining up to get us something
- I have no idea what the place is called as it's all in Chinese
- but they're showing on a TV that they've
- got a 2018 Michelin Guide Recommendation
- So it must be good right?
- We've picked up these miscellaneous desserts
- from a store on Nanjing Rd
- It always has a long line everytime we walk past
- Not really sure what they are
- Let's go for it
- I'm going to try the green one first
- Let me bite into it
- There's pork floss in here!!
- This is really good!
- I really like this
- For those that haven't had pork floss
- It has kind of a flossy texture
- It's actually quite sweet as well
- Yum!
- this one looks like there's some coconut on the outside
- Omg what a surprise
- Two of my favourite ingredients
- There's red bean
- There's also another ball of black sesame
- Oh my goodness
- I don't regret this at all
- They have so many other snacks here so we'll have to come back and try them
- I'm going to go devour this
