China has so many amazing street foods to try, and I've been filming and documenting them for you for the past 4 years. In my opinion, the best noodle dish in China is dan dan noodles, right here in Chengdu, Sichuan. China has some of the best street food around the world, and these dan dan noodles were INSANELY GOOD, some of the best noodles in China for sure!
If you're traveling to China to eat and try different street foods, and perhaps want to learn a little bit about Chinese food and chinese cooking in the process, you need to try a few different variations of Dan Dan noodles. When they prepare the traditional Chinese dan dan noodle recipe right on the street, you can watch as they scoop the main ingredients like chili oil, soy sauce, sichuan peppercorn, and garlic right into the noodle bowl and then place the steaming hot noodles right over top. It's truly satisfying! After they put the noodles over top, they place their signature fried ground pork on top, known in Chinese as shaozi.
When your dan dan noodles arrive to your table, it is very important to mix up all the chili oil and all of the ingredients throughout. This ensures that the flavour and the hot oil gets coated onto each noodle before you take a bite. It's also quite satisfying mixing the noodles and watching the dark red oil slowly turn each noodle from white into red and silky smooth.
When you take your first bite, you'll understand why this is one of the BEST Chinese street foods you need to try. The spicy noodles are coated with an incredibly aromatic chili oil and really send you straight up to heaven! It's one of the best forms of Chinese cooking!

Lucas Pickford how does he sound Canadian vs American?
It's so nice watching how respectful you are to the different cultures and people you encounter. It's refreshing to just enjoy a show in it's purity, no drama or negativity.
9:25 my boy was spitting bars🔥
ong
N!gga n!gga n!gga n!gga n!gga
i legit thought he is spitting the n word real hard
nigga roll XD
那个 nage ，in Chinese means “that”
I can tell he learned Mandarin in Chengdu. His passion is heartwarming. Awesome! Food can connect people of different cultures together.
Interesting, b/c from my perspective his mandarin is grinding.
@@jansteinvonsquidmeirsteen2256 what does that mean
"But when people love your product, I'm sure it makes you happy." A very sweet thing to say to the man, Trevor! And I get the sense you feel happy from so many folks loving your product, too! Kudos to you.

I remember watching this years ago, and coming back, I remember the thing that hit me was the pure and honest joy that is on display in this video. It's rare to see, it sticks with you.
I just love all the dudes making great noodles, while puffing a smoke at the same time, true kitchen warriors
4:52 Does not get anymore authentic than that. Chop sticks in one hand, Strainer in the other, and a cigarette with the ashes still on. Skill.
lol
Puahahaha!!
Old school street food
JettBuo 7:13 as well 😀
JettBuo THUG LIFE
My man just said the N word so many times at 9:25

First Last why would you want to say that

You know them noodles are gonna be fire when the dude cooking them has a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.
Love the sprinkles of cigarette ash in the noddles
Well, your video is a pure nightmare for oversea Chinese people. I miss Chinese food so hard!!!Great video
haha oh mannnn
+1
Holyshit I agree with you so hard
The word is "overseas," my friend.
A nightmare especially for someone who is from Sichuan but living abroad now!
Three years ago ，One foreigner said that he would like to eat the foods all of China ，But now ，three years has been past ，he is still in SiChuan province ！
when he have eaten all Chinese food,he has forgot how the first food taste.
Hahahah
点赞的都是中国人吧😂🤣
There is more food in other cities
Be aware of corona virus.
Warning: don’t watch this when ur starving
I am fasting today and I made a mistake coming here
lol! who eats noodles when starving.. Idk how these people survives eating noodle all day.
Unless you hate spicy food, itll help
My dad makes pasta and I eat it when I’m hungry
Doesn't matter
I luv the way Chinese people cook their noodles....It luk extremely delicious and spicy at the same time.....Luv from india !!👌
Its is full of ground pork.
@@tiger63015 yeah I know....If it was beef than problem pork is okay.
Man, my mom's from chongqing and grew up with szechuan food. Honestly, i've fallen out of touch with my culture because i was born and raised in Toronto and have only visited twice when i was younger. Glad to see you keeping my culture's food traditions alive and on display for the world to see! Props to you, Trevor :)
Thanks so much Jeff!!!
Jeff Li we are same name i lived America
重庆人欢迎你回家乡看看，试试重庆的小面

Dude, your so passionate of the cultures you visit, extremely intelligent, multiple languages, and kamikaze with food tasting. I applaud you ma man. I love you show, and your desire to show the whole world, that there are still goodness and good people in this world, making amazing foods. Thank you brother.
Ditto!!
ingrid ramirez , thank you Miss Ramirez.

Exactly.
My God I want to eat that 10 rated noodles at the end
paojiao is one of the most spiciest chili in China, be prepared
Then come and try, ez
I want to eat all of the noodles in the video. I miss Chinese food so much.
*all the noodles
Righteous1 yes me too, however I would probably stay on the toilet for two days or more 😷
Love this man showing us all good food and places to get them. Best wishes to you man
You are so beautiful
that one guy, casually smoking a cigarette while draining the noodles. love it
He speaks Chinese very well
I lived in China for 4years and the only thing i learnt was ni haau and xexe damn this guy is literally amazing with languages
How about Chao Zan De for Wonderful, and Wo Le Ge Qu which means Sweet Jesus ?
how did you survive?
the first phrase CHAO ZAN DE means something that is very well，and the second phrase can describe a little Amazon ,and most of time it is mean not very well .
You need to learn a language, not just live there 😂
How did you communicate with Chinese people?
You're breaking my heart! They all looked amazing, the dumplings looked fantastic. I'm making this this weekend.
I had Dan Dan for the first time today in downtown Seattle, WA, and specifically searched for exactly what you have posted, thank you!
You know you're having the authentic Chinese food when the cook has a ciggy hanging on his lips. Lol
I was going to say that lol
Living under a government that will kill my children would make me take up smoking too.
Hope his cigarette ashes wouldn't drop into noodle
He has to pay more for cigarettes ashes in his noodles
@@user-lm2pv4if1c Adds the smokey flavour :D
It is so peaceful in Chinese culture i can feel the Peace through the screen!!!
tdawgbigdawg100 Chinese love to bond and help each. They’re very social and bright people.
When I went to China it was the best place, compared to America everyone is so kind and so friendly! Whole different beautiful culture!!
Putting ridicule in your life publicly, is not ideal!
Chinese communist party: I'm about to end this mans whole career
Get out their arse.
You’re so happy go lucky. So chipper and amused. I love that energy. I aspire to be that happy one day. Thanks for the videos man ❤️
Everything looked spectacular!!!
You cannot imagine how delicious Chinese foods are.
Excepts bats n frogs
@@voodoo192 deserved reply😝😂
@Altroz BlaCBirD What makes you seriously think they want gutter oil? There's a thing called poverty bro. Btw there's also a thing called discrimination.
@Altroz BlaCBirD True that. But they wouldn't have to do it if oil is cheap for them. Too many of such things in these third world countries.
Because they are cooked with respect and love :)
Oh man, i pretend as if i am eating these beautiful dan dan noodles when actually i have Maggie noodles in my bowl. Just make it easy for me to finish it off.
ahahahaha I was doing the same thing haha
Yummy
Chinese is the most hardest Language to learn .bt u did it . Hat's off u man❤️ love from kerala
The people of Sichuan are so welcoming! I hope to visit one day and try all the food. 😋
4:54 You know when they're smoking a cigarette and cooking your food it's official af
lol truth
you just do not understand the culture dude
no i dont. what does that mean?
xiaoyu li hes saying the chef that was smoking is very serious or cool
ohhh got it. Thank you!!
Being a huge Chinese food fan, this video took every little bit of my self control to watch till the end... ❤️❤️❤️
How can you speak Chinese so fluently? incredible!!
It's not that fluent but kudos to him.
My goodness your language skills is above the laws, wonderful video and wonderful people an wonderful place and wonderful food 😅
Trevor, I really enjoy your videos. Your enthusiasm is addictive. Your language skills are impressive and I really appreciate you repeating the ingredients as the meal is being prepared. Thanks for another video!

No one asked
@@gentlemen8382 Why did u have to say that way kid.
@Firman Nazmadi u calm down
9:25 "Nigga Roll" 😂🔥
I really appreciate your show! Please continue to make quality videos.
Who else is watching this at 3am amidst a lockdown and feeling hungry AF? 😅
0:55 how many of you noticed that... the owner is surprised... when he talks Mandarin... hhaaaa
Im working while listening to your videos and at 9:26 i did a double take rewind and paid atention to what you were saying. I thought Lil Jon came up in this video with his Real N$$A Roll Call" hahahahahah
The patience of the photographer is incredible while Trevor splurges on the good food
not too long ago I was one of the few that would ever even comment on your vids now yo have 1.5million subscribers. It's crazy how much you've blown up man but it's well deserved!
Paul Blythin ikr,i was one of them too,he was only have like 35k suscriber then.
titin buawel ae same.. it was less thn 100k. its amazing how he brings so many audience with his charm..hahaa
It might have helped that I posted some of his videos to my FB page a couple years ago.
I'm sure we all played a part. I just loved the fact he was following his passion and desire to eat dan dan noodles haha he didn't even care about the money just wanted to earn enough to be in China. So charismatic and a gentleman
Another great video. I hope some people get inspired and then want to learn a few travel phrases with us before you go to China to taste everything!
Loved watching your video! Thanks😄👍❤️
Great review, Trev. My mouth is watering. Bring on the Dan-Dan Mein.
Damn i am watching this Video wihle imma eating pizza, now i just wanna throw it away
Wayne Wu 😂
😁😁
I feel you bro😑😑
Me too 😂😂
😆😆😆
The smokiness came from the old mans cigarette
😂😂😂
Oof
😂😂😂really
wtf lollll
i was waiting to see this type of comment xDD
Dude...I LOVE your videos. I get hungry every time I watch one of your eating videos and every time you go "ooo wow!"....cracks me up.
It’s really nice that you let that lady mix up your noodles and just went along with it while she explained, very classy bro
*I've never left a Trevor James video unsatisfied!!!*
Awesome to hear that!!
More than the food I am amazed at the variety of languages you speak ! Bravo
You speak fluent (whatever dialect that is)...so impressed with you and everyone seems to understand. One thumbs up from me!! The noodles appear so delicious.
Call of duty lobbies be like: 9:25
Lmaooo 💀
nei ge,内个=那个，means That in Chinese
He makes me want to learn a new language, being able to interact with other cultures in their native language must be so fulfilling and awesome.
I eat whenever I watch your video, It gives me more appetite, thanks for that, I just hope you could release more videos.
same here lol
True story. I make sure I have something to eat before I watch the new video; otherwise, it makes me crazy
Same here. Imagine eating a bowl of dan dan noodles that you bought for $8 and watching him eating a bigger bowl of dan dan noddles he spent $1 and change on. Insane!
Gamer's Choice HARDCORE same here. I watch his video when I miss home. He is an expert on Sichuan food.
So many N-Words😂😂😂
9:40 "You nigga swan the way out"
The word 'Na Ge' means 'That' in Chinese...
I've watched this a bunch of times and I think it is one of your best videos.
Mouth watering again!!!! Thanks for sharing Trevor 😭😭👍👍👍
i was born to eat noodles, 3 times a day i don't get tired! "Tai Bi le" (Northeastern style of "Tai Hao Le")! hello from Vancouver!
It's bad for you
I eat 5 packs each month
This honestly brought a tear to my eye.
Trevor James is enjoyng the good food all around the world. How does he remain so slim?
I so love Jia Jiang Mein.😋
omg my first time watching and I love this guy already! SOLD! SUBSCRIBED!!
OMG! Your vids are amazing! - I finally got my 10-year China Visa! Cannot wait to fly over there and use your vids as a guide!
Opera88 I’m a Chinese. Welcome to China. You can come over canton, then I will bring u around the city. XD
Have a good trip！！！
Welcome.I am living in Chengdu ,the city which he ate all those noodles.I can be your guide when you come.~
I'm watching this in the summer of 2020 when tensions with China are at an all time high. The Chinese people in the rangers videos are just like everyone else all over the world. They want Peace and good Eats!
Dude I started laughing my butt off when I saw the dude with the cig in his mouth as he was tending to a pot of boiling noodles....I was Soo focused to see if ash fell into it..I would of died laughing
"Would of"!?
He was just on break. Nothing like good tobacco smell in your noodles
Reminded me of one guy from Shaolin Soccer Movie.
You have to love how everyone in the background stares at him weirdly LOL
Waah that looks so good I'm drooling on my screen.....
I gave this a LIKE just bc he can speak so nicely in their native tongue. Awesome. lol
The Chinese cuisine has several different flavors, it is very interesting.
I love this channel!!!
Oh yeah thanks a lot!!!
Dood, that looks so good. Every bowl. Dumplings maybe a bit suspicious. Love the dangling cigarettes, too. No idea why youtube popped this video up but I thoroughly enjoyed it and am now a subscriber.
This video got motorcycles passing by with diesel fumes flowing and cooks handing the food while smoking a cigarette. Lol
You are eating noodles instead of air.
The cigarette over the noodles is what I loved! 🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️🤣🤣🤣
9:25 LOL travor james, the king!
Trevor just being thug as hell ;)
Christov Bro 😂😂😂😂 LOL
Love your videos man! Thank you for making these videos, ALL THIS FOOD LOOKS SO GOOD!
Thanks so much!!!
I watch this video monthly, never gets old.
Language + Food GREAT COMBINATION🍲😍
HE'S GOING DEEP PEOPLE.
PLUMP AND DEEP
El Nino b
XD
I want to learn mandarin each time i see this guy speaking. Eloquently spoken!
OMG YOU MADE ME STARVING TREVOR !!
Can we just take a second to acknowledge the effortlessly cool spoon technique at 1:35? Because that was, like, really cool.
I love your energy Trevor, you can hype me up about all sorts of different dishes that I'd never even take a second glance at on a menu. Might I recommend considering some European spots for a future trip - perhaps a week in the Aegean going between the Greek and Turkish islands?
DAN DAN NOODLE HEAVEN (I think I liked the 3rd one best ;))!!! Really cool seeing this vid mate!! Hope you guys are having a solid time in Japan!!
Don’t know who you are dude, but you’re a bright light in the world. Keep doing your thing.
Maaaan, you just ate more noodle in one day than I had in 6 years
Damn, I watched this at mid night
YiLong Zhang im watching this at 4:30 am xD
Me too. Not a good idea.
Can’t stop watching this videos it just looks so good!!!!!
As a Chinese my hometown is in chengdu my fav two dishes are spicy pork mushrooms and carrots second tofu with crab and beans u guys have to try it it is so good:)
I got so hungry watching this I got made a bowl, spicy AF but so good. Trevor is the man.
Y am I watching this 2 in the morning 🤦🏼♂️😖
now I am hungry.!.!.
I wish we could transport food through the screens 😭😭It looks so goooodd!!!
That Auntie at the 3rd noodle stall stirring your noodles and dumplings for you was hilarious
My mouth watered from the thumbnail...
The owners of Szechuan restaurants all over the world should thank you for your contribution to the sales of their dandan noddles 😄
