rice noodle rolls, barbecue pork and roast goose.
We've got tons of desserts.
We've got some late night street foods

And this is the first Dim Dou Dak in Guangzhou.
What we walked into was nothing short of dim sum heaven.
We're taking you for a massive feast
of ha gao shrimp dumplings, sui mai pork dumplings,
signature red rice-wrapped shrimp rolls with crispy youtiao,
two types of chicken feet, rice porridge,
barbecue pork buns, molten egg custard buns,
durian puffs

So let's just go right in.
I think for you guys, for the first bite
of food in China, it's gotta be
the hongmichang right here.
That right there is the ultimate dim sum
you have to taste, and we're gonna dip it

- [Trevor] D'you like that?
- [Nikki] It's like soft and crispy and plump all at once.
- And next up, we had to taste the steamed chicken feet
in a black bean sauce, the fengzao.
So you can see the real secret
is the fluffy skin and the fatty collagen.
Let's try it out.
(background chatter)
(groans in delight)
Oh yeah.
What do you think?
(background chattering)
- There's a little kick in it that's really nice.
You can taste the chili in there.

They definitely are.
Sup guys, we gotta try these luishabao,
molten egg custard buns.
And it's all on the inside, the magic.
Juicy, molten eggless... oh, oh.
Isn't that creamy?
- [Nikki] How does that not fall?
- [Trevor] Wow.
- [Nels] Oh geez.
- Look at that.
Let's try it out.
- Oh my gosh.
Oh, it's leaking.
(groans in delight)
- Oh my gosh.
- Whoa. I was not expecting that flavor.
- I just like... the custard filled my mouth.
Its warm, and sweet but, like,
creamy, not heavy though.
- Oh yeah. High five (hands clap together)
This is awesome.
How was that guys?
- It was so good, it was like a dream.
That was just amazing.
- Fantastic introduction to China.
- I can't believe that was our first meal.
- Beautiful. And we've got so many places
to bring you guys today.
Let's keep going.
Next up, we're going for changfan,
the ultimate Chinese rice noodle roll.
And today we're bringing our guests
for the most plump and satisfying rolls in the restaurant.
So it's an action-packed day today.
We're taking Nikki and Nels down
through the old alleyways of Guangzhou.
And right up ahead we're going into the old streets
for some changfan, rice noodle rolls with pork
and beef
and egg.
Really delicious, made on a cloth, bu lao chang style.
It's gonna be really good.
And next up guys,
Next up guys, changfen.
So this is Chu laoban, boss Chu,
and he's been open for many years.
So he's been open 61 years here.
Wow, it's a 61 year old joint,
and this is it right here.
And we're gonna order the classic
with egg, pork and beef, and it's really good.
Let's go take a look.
So this is it right here.
You can see we've got these
rice flour rolls
that are steamed on top of a cloth over here.
And they put a bunch of different ingredients on top.
Okay, here we go.
Look at that guys, there.
That is the sticky rice flour,
and we're laying it down over top of a cloth
and putting delicious pork mixture on
and egg and shrimp, and then steaming it.
It's called bu lao chang because its on a cloth.
There's a couple different ways
you can make this changfan.
One of them is in a metal tray, steamed,
and this way is over top of a cloth, steamed.
And it goes right in that bowl.
Just covered in that oil and soy sauce.
And this is the classic dish of Canton.
Look at this.
We've got that steamed rice flour,
and look on the inside.
We've got those shrimp, there's an egg,
and then that pork mixture with that light soy sauce.
Oh wow.
And of course, I think in this one
the real winner is this little bit
of a spicy bean paste on top.
There it is guys (laughs).
Let's try it out.
(slurps noodles)
(groans in delight)
Oh, that's fantastic isn't it?
- [Nikki] Yeah, it's good with the egg.
I just got the egg in there.
- Wow. Like a light soy sauce,
spicy with that bean paste and then I love...
This is really just an upgrade deluxe changfan
because they put so much in there.
So that is just only on the streets of Guangzhou.
The pure changfen.
You have to come to Guangzhou to taste it this level.

Thank you.
Bye bye.

Wow, wasn't that awesome?

tasting this good stuff.

(relaxed pop music)
- And I love how there's a bit of a slight secret,
almost honey-like sauce on the skin, right?
- [Nikki] Oh this is just fat. That is,
I'm excited for this piece.
- [Nels] I was just about to say this one is just fat.
- [Nikki] Look at that, that's literally fat.
- This is so much fun eating together.
Pure fat, pure delight.
- So good.
- Almost like honey.
- Yeah. It's like you ate the best chasiu butter
or just, like, melt in your mouth--
- So we've just tried both, and Nels and Nikki,
what were your favorite?
- I honestly like them both the same.
They're just so good, yeah.
- [Trevor] Really good.
- I think that this might be my favorite.
This is gorgeous, the skin is just amazing.

I've ever had.
- Really? Wow.
Really good (laughs)
And next up, we're bringing Nikki and Nels
for some classic Cantonese pig foot noodles.
And of course, pork intestine noodles too.
So next up we're in the deep alleyways of Guangzhou,

But here they've got the pig foot noodles.

So you can get, these are egg noodles, and they've got
a bunch of different braised sauces down here.
Oh, and this is the pig foot right in here.

It's all about the gelatin.
Look at that.
Look at those.
And this is the beef brisket.
Wow. And then we've also got the...
Whoa, crazy.
As you can see all of these dried egg noodles here.
You can get these as well, take them to go

Whoa, look at that jelly-like pig's foot.
Oh, and here they come you guys.
- That's fantastic.
So we've got the pork intestine.
Then we've got the beef brisket.
And then what we came here for,
the beautiful
pig foot noodles.
So this one right here really looks delicious
with those juicy intestines, braised juicy pork intestines.
And you can really smell that.
It's just like a rich gravy, right?
The whole gravy aroma.
- [Nikki] It smells so good.
- [Trevor] And Nikki you're saying you just
love intestines, right?
- Yeah I do, I love intestines.
- So this is gonna be good for you.
And Nels,
your pig's foot.
- Pig's foot. I'm excited for this, I am.
- And I'm just going light version,
normal beef brisket but we can share everything.
(slurps noodles)
(groans in delight)
- You know what, I like this a lot better
than I was expecting.
- Really?
- Yeah. It's (licks lips)
just a lot of flavor just packed in a small bite.
That was really good.
- This is so soft, it's not chewy at all.
It just like, it's probably the softest melt-in-your-mouth
intestine that I've ever had.
- [Trevor] Really?
- [Nikki] And the flavor is so rich.
It's not bitter at all like you'll get sometimes.
- [Nels] You might wanna it with your hand.
- I'm in love with these noodles.
How's that pig's foot?
- That is so good.
Like, the fat just coats your tongue,
and its so soft, and the flavor is really good.
It's not strong, it's like mild strong.
It's kind of a medium flavor.
- It's all about the texture, the fatty collagenness, right?
- It really coats your tongue though, it really just, like,
just slides over your tongue.
It's really good.
- Next up we're bringing Nikki and Nels
for an extremely strong and satisfying
traditional Chinese medicine drink.
Sold by vendor who looks at your tongue
and your overall health, Chinese traditional medicine style,
to make you feel better.
Okay guys, so next up, because it's such a warm day
in Guangzhou, we're going into a little local neighborhood
right down these stairs.
There's a traditional Chinese medicine bitter drink,
liangcha, and it's really good.
And what's super unique about this one
is that they use a custom mixture
of different herbs and spices depending
on how you're feeling, and she is gonna
to prescribe a drink to us based on our feelings right now.
Here we are guys.
This is famous Cantonese medicinal tea, liangcha,
run by Lin laoban.
(laughs)
So this is Lin laoban.
This is Nikki and Nels
(greetings in foreign language)
from USA.
- Oh, hi.
They've been open 20 years here.
- Oh my gosh, wow, that's incredible.
So look at this, guys.
This is all traditional Chinese, Cantonese liangcha.
- So these are like different herbal teas kinda things?
- All different, right?
And Lin laoban is gonna look at us
and decide what's best for us based on how we're feeling.
So do you wanna try first?
- Sure.
- Okay.
And after having a quick talk with Boss Lin,
she took a look at our tongues,
asked us if we had any issues,
prescribed us something perfect
to beat the summer heat and the humidity of Guangzhou.
So this is pure medicine here.
- Cheers.
- Chinese herbal liangcha, yeah.
- I have no idea what to expect from the flavor.
(smacks lips)
- Oh it's so bitter, I love it.
- It's bitter right?
- I love that. I like it because its not overpowering.
Like, it's a strong flavor but it doesn't, like,
knock you off your feet or anything.
You just kind of take a sip and it's there,
but its so soothing.
- Soothing, and medicinal, and herbal,
and a little bit bitter.
And Boss Lin really knows how to prescribe you
what you need based on how you're feeling.
People come here with all different sorts of problems,
or not.
Some people just love it because it feels good.
But if you come with a cold, if you come with anything,
she can just mix up the perfect blend for you
and you'll feel better.
- Thank you.
- Thank you very much Lin laoban.
That was really nice.
Very happy. That just feels so good.
And next up, we're going deep into a local market
in Guangzhou and looking for street food.
Finding some incredibly strong Chinese rice liqor,
baijiu, and some of the best fried rice noodles
we've had so far.
And next up guys, we are going deep into a local market

She's worried that we're gonna die (laughs)
She's worried we're gonna get drunk.
- Can you light this on fire? I think that's the...
- No, this is definitely (laughs nervously)
- It's just like evaporating in your mouth, it's so strong.

Wow.

So it's rice flour and water.
And you can see he's steaming it
in this metal steamer over here.
And then, as it comes out, it comes out
in these flat sheets, and we chop it up
and fry it into noodles.
- I've never had noodles like these, ever.
- It's super cool, yeah.
So you can see we're taking these rice flour sheets

I can't believe that even, like, a little stand like this
you can... they don't have that in the U.S.
Like, this is (trails off)
- So you can just see that pure wok skill there
as he's frying these noodles up.
We got the flat rice noodles, bean sprouts,
egg, pork,
over high heat.
It's all about the control.
And it's really nice to get in the back

Like this is so unique and I'm in heaven
and I just don't have words for how wonderful this is.
Like, everything about this is amazing.

of the whole thing.
I'm a little overwhelmed, and it's sort of like,
buckle your seatbelt, we're going on a ride.
And now when the booster pads are on,
we're just gonna hit everything we can.
