Alright so check it out
It’s Trevor James
I just got into Guangzhou, China
The land of dim sum and barbecue pork
I came here to eat
And today we are going for a full day of Foodrangin’ feast in
Let’s go check it out
If you love dim sum
And the elegance of finely cooked cantonese cuisine
Coming to Guangzhou to eat will fill you with joy through each bite
There’s enough food here for a lifetime
And in one day
You can do as the locals do and feast on dim sum and sip tea
And try a ton of delicious street food specialties
Make sure to watch until the end
Because you won’t believe the insanity of the seafood scene here in Guangdong
First up, just like the locals, you can make your way to a local changfen breakfast joint
And eat some delicious changfen rice noodle rolls
Let’s eat
So just right up here there is a famous changfen place
Rice noodle roll place
This is what you’ve gotta have for breakfast in Guangzhou
Let’s go have a taste
Alright, we’re going to sit down and have a bite of this beauty
Changfen is the first street food you need to eat here in Guangzhou or Hong Kong
Rice flour water is poured onto a metal tray and steamed
Then, your choice or mixture of pork, shrimp, egg, cockles or beef
Is mixed into a bowl and put onto that beautiful steamed rice flour
Just watch this magic
After its steamed a little longer
It’s pushed into a little blob of goodness
Garnished with light soy sauce
And fried radish
There is nothing like it
Beautiful
This is a monster changfen
Get a shot of this beauty
This is a true beauty changfen
Just a regular rice noodle roll in guangzhou
It’s just like rice flour, steamed
It’s like sloppy and elegant
The best of both worlds
It’s full of little shrimp, egg, and beef
And this rice noodle is going to be so good
I just gotta get a good first bite here
The slight fragrance from the light soy sauce is really smooth
And the rice noodle is so silky
And it just takes on that nice slight fragrance from the light soy sauce
It’s just like sloppy goodness here
After eating that nice changfen
We began searching for street snacks to try before our huge pre-lunch of Cantonese style street food BBQ pork
This is one of the true joys of Foodrangin’, you can find delicious snacks all along the way
Look at these!
What we stumbled into was one of the highlights of breakfast street food in China
Here, at little baozi shops, and in particular in Guangdong
You can find a ton of different breakfast street food specialties meant to be eaten on the go
You can find classic street foods like tea boiled egg flavored with star anise and soy
Mantou plain white steamed buns
Freshly made baozi stuffed pork or vegetable steamed buns
Steamed shaomai sticky rice dumplings
And then some of the kings of street food dim sum
The zongzi and lo mai Gai
Steamed sticky rice stuffed with chicken, mushrooms
And sometimes sausage, scallions, and dried shrimp
All wrapped up in a beautiful lotus leaf
But one thing I can never get enough of
Is one of the highlights of Cantonese dim sum and street food
The chashao bao
AKA BBQ pork bun
What a beautiful second breakfast we can have here
Chashaobao!
Oh look at these!
This is what I came to Guangdong for
Chashaobao, BBQ pork buns
Huge!
Look at those monsters
Look at that
That is a monster baozi chashaobao
And we are going to try it
OK, lets try it out
Oh yeah
Look at that
The BBQ pork that they put in there
It’s so juicy
And the BBQ flavor is actually quite sweet
Oh yeah
Oh it’s like a sweet BBQ sauce in the ultimate fluffy bun
That is the perfect second breakfast of the day
After that gorgeous barbecue pork bun
We made our way in search of our first lunch
The world famous Cantonese chashao BBQ pork and roast goose
Chashao, oh look at this!
Look at this!
Chashao and roast goose in Guangdong, Guangzhou!
This is going to be incredible!
Oh yeah, look at how he chops in the back there!
This just brings joy to you!
I just can’t get enough of watching him cut all of this BBQ pork
This is the pinnacle of lunch street food in Guangdong
Found all throughout street corners in Guangdong and Hong Kong
Xiu Mei roast meat establishments like these specialize in a variety of meats
With the famous chashao and roast goose taking the crown
The BBQ pork is made with a mixture of honey
Five spice powder
Dark soy sauce
And hoisin sauce
And the roast goose is served with a sweet plum sauce
Just watching them chop the BBQ pork and roast goose will get your mouth watering
You can order these dishes just like the locals over rice
And sit down for a nice lunch on the street
This is worth the flight alone
This is such a busy spot
And I got the roast goose here
And BBQ pork over rice with veg
We are just going to add a little plum sauce onto that goose
Oh yeah this is 
This is going to be good
And now I have this braised sauce that you put over top of the goose
Oh yeah thats a little bit messy but
Oh yeah thats going to be flavor packed
Lets get a nice big chunk with a nice piece of fatty skin
Lets try it out
Oh yeah
That is pure magic
It’s really good
When you take your first bite
The goose is so juicy 
And it has this slight aromatic sweetness to it
But the best part is the plum sauce for sure
Look at all the fat bubbling out of the skin
That is where is gets the flavor 
See that? The fat bubbling out of the skin there
That’s where it gets the flavour
And then when you bite into the meat
It just packs even more juice
Covered in a plum sauce
You will fall in love on your first bite
Now we have got to try some of this chashao BBQ pork
Very good!
Very good!
Really nice!
Look at that
Thats the secret
All that sauce there
That is what it’s all about right here
I could just keep coming here every day
Having some chashao over rice
That’s a full meal 
And so fulfilling and satisfying when you eat this
After that incredible roast goose and BBQ pork 
We made our way to our second lunch
The thing you must try when in Guangdong or Hong Kong
Dim sum
Here we go
Dim dou dak
Dim sum is some of the best of the best when it comes to Chinese food
It’s such a world of its own
You could spend your whole life learning and tasting different dim sum
And since we were quite full
We only ordered the must try classic dim sum dishes of Guangdong and Hong Kong
Starting with the two kings of dim sum
The ha gao transparent shrimp dumpling
Packed with shrimp pork fat, sesame oil, and light seasonings
Along with the shaomai, the ground pork and chopped shrimp dumpling
Also filled with mushrooms, onions, and ginger
These two dim sum kings go great with the delicious fengzhua
A fried, steamed, and stewed puffy chicken feet dish
Flavored with black fermented beans, bean paste, and sugar
Adding a steamer of chashao bao
The same one I sampled on the street in the morning
And the dim dou dak special rice roll with a crispy inner fried rice cake and prawns
Dipped into a peanut sauce
This is like a dream world it’s so good
This is just a classic dim sum lunch here in Guangzhou
There’s so many specialties here
I think I’m going to have to go right away for the shaomai
Pork and shrimp dumplings with crab roe on top
That is one of the kings of dim sum
So juicy
The pork and the shrimp - The shrimp is springy
Oh and the crab roe has a perfect hint of flavor
That is good!
There is also chicken feet here
And these are actually growing on me
I’ve been in China three years now
And when they are done right
The skin, there is something so satisfying about taking the skin off with your teeth
Chicken feet for life
A little sweet
Just a touch of spice
And what the locals do is you bite like I guess the knuckle
And then suck the skin off
And then spit the knuckle off on the plate
And you’re just left with tiny little bones
After feasting on this delicious dim sum
And taking a little walk around to digest
We made our way to Guangzhou’s largest wholesale seafood market
The amount of selection here will blow you away
So we are just coming up to a seafood market
This is on the pearl river in Guangzhou
This is the biggest wholesale seafood market in Guangzhou
And we’re going to choose some seafood and have a big meal
Look at all this seafood!
This looks good
Look at that geoduck
This probably comes from Canada
Look at those big mantis shrimp
Nice mantis shrimp
Those are huge
Look at that!
Look at that!
That’s huge!
This is like a huge eel here
After possibly slightly overpaying
We found some sand worms that looks inviting 
So we grabbed a bag
And carried all the seafood up to the top floor of the restaurant upstairs
And passed the seafood to the chefs
Who cooked the outside bought seafood and charged by the kilo
We got a nice seafood feast coming up
We bought a lot
Fresh red crab
Scallops with garlic and rice noodles
Deep fried eel with a sweet glaze
Geoduck fried in fresh bell peppers and red chilies
Salt and pepper mantis shrimp
And sand worms cooked just like onion rings
All cooked in a light and elegant cantonese style
I didn’t think it was going to be this much
I’m going to try to finish it all
We have a lot here today
Let’s just dig in
Look at that!
That’s a lot of meat
And I got it original flavor
So they just give you a nice garlic dip
Oh yeah, garlic, and oil
Tender crab meat with a 
This garlic dip is actually a little salty
Everything was perfectly cooked
With the eel surprisingly being the most tender and delicious thing we tasted
And the sand worms tasting almost exactly like onion rings
So when you come to Guangzhou, make sure to have a seafood feast
So as you see we couldn’t finish all of that seafood
We ordered a little too much
Gotta bring it home and have it later
