    Just a note to clarify - eating these types of foods are not common in local culture. These things are eaten in some parts of Asia, but this street is really just for novelty. You can clearly see that the Chinese locals are very... surprised... to see me eating this.
    This was just for fun, and because I love trying new things - no Chinese person I have ever met actually eats this! Unless on a dare. :D

      Actually in rural areas is more common than some people think, but not this kind of bugs but bee larvae, wasps and silkworms are used as an ingredient. Also there's an increasing bug-eating industry for medicinal purpose.

    When I first traveled to China in 2007 to teach English for a year, one of my favorite actives quickly became taking a walk after dinner with friends and exploring the narrow lanes of the subtropical city we lived in.
    With a couple of lamb or chicken skewers in hand, we were set to explore the city for the night. On our nightly walk to the river that ran through the city, we observed the people around us selling clothes from carts along the streets and students playing ping pong in a park.
    Everyone was outside doing something (or nothing) and you felt like you were a part of it. One of the best things about China is that you can walk out of your door and everything and everyone is right there waiting for you.
    As China continues to grow, more and more foreigners are choosing to travel, live, work, or do business in China. No matter what your reason for exploring this vibrant country, the below tips on how to get by during your first days will help give you the confidence to buy your ticket and go have fun in China.

    I haven't been to Beijing although I am China-born in beautiful Guilin during the WW in 1944 when my medical father was assisting the Chinese Red Cross there - his family stayed briefly in Hong Kong before being recalled back to ' The City of Angel ', Bangkok. At the age of 12, he sent me back to HK for elementary & high school for 9 years - I was not a good student like Dad & could not be admitted into HKU, he had no choice but to send me to colleges in the US for another 5 years - 14 years of overseas education but could not write or read Chinese with the exception of my Chinese name (Lee Ping Lok in memory of Pingle, Guilin, Guangxi province) with my deepest regrets.
    At 76+, I visited China many times to Kunming, Chengdu, Gongzong, Shenzhen, & my beloved Hong Kong - I am hoping to visit Beijing & Guilin in the near future. THANK YOU FOR ALL THE TRAVELINGS, JORDAN!

    Some historical trivia about the temple you visited: it started off as the palace compound of Prince Yong of the Qing Dynasty from 1694 to 1722, when he was crowned as the emperor as Yongzheng upon his father's death. Because he was such a devout follower of Tibetan Buddhism, he converted this former residence of his into a lamasery to host renowned Buddhist monks and scholars from Tibet and Mongolia.

    Jordon and all, you are awesome! The square where you were dancing is actually the courtyard of St. Joseph's Catholic Church, also known as 东堂 or the East Church, as one of the major parish in the inner city (inside 2nd Ring Road). (You guessed it, there are also "南堂" (at Xuanwumen), "西堂" (at Xizhimen) and "北堂" (Xishuku)).
    There used to be a wall protecting the courtyard, but since the area has become so popular with tourists, the government somehow convinced the church to take down the walls and have the courtyard or square open to the public 24 hours a day.

You will NEVER find those bugs on any menu at any restaurant or at any western style grocery store.

    I am a Chinese and I eat Chinese foods each day, but I have never eaten those kind of insects; however, I would like to try those fried scorpions one day, but not those fried small snakes, too gross lol.
    Hey I had snakes before, but in soup, very tasty, from big snake, taste like fish.

    watching your video from Chicago. I went to Yonghe lama temple in 2002 and tried scorpion in 2011. as a Chinese immigrant living in the US, I should have recorded some videos about real American life. it is boring here. almost no change for 10 years. in contract, China is a fun place. I probably go back to China once retired.

      easier to make money in the US with advanced degrees and housing, food, education (received scholarship+tuition waiver+free flight ticket to Chicago years ago) and many things are relatively cheaper than China. I can't afford housing in Beijing and Shanghai as well as lots of competition from hard working peers. American are more laid back if don't go to Silicon Valley or Wall Street. you should go back to Russia or Poland or Africa. there will be less Asian there. if you are Native American, you can say that to anybody. if that was the case, I would say sorry for those guys killed your ancestors and sent you to Indian Reservation.

She was even more brave than the guy they were traveling with!! So lucky you got that roof vantage point. But, y'all really need to master Mandarin. That's why Food Ranger has millions of subs, he gets us really good useful information that we can use on our own travels and you can only do that by speaking to and learning from the natives.

    Hi guys, I'm from China. I didn't watch the entire video. Just a piece of kind advice. In the most touristy areas of big cities, MAYBE there is not a problem eating in the streets, but you still need to be carefull sometimes. Not all street food is clean in China, honestly. The street food that you often see a lot of Chinese people eat probably won't have problems. I myself am very careful with any food in the streets. When I was in China, I always ate in a restaurant, it's not too expensive anyway. Just make sure that you don't have a bad luck day and come across bad people selling unhealthy food, then it should be fine.

  • @nathanj3510
    @nathanj3510 Před 5 lety

    This food street in Beijing is designed just for foreigners or people from other part of China. and these food are not traditional Beijing food. 99% Chinese people in Beijing do not eat these bugs. I was born and grew up in Beijing.
    For example,
    1. foreigners should visit NiuJie(牛街) and visit the Muslin world in Beijing and try some unique Chinese Muslin food and feel how nice / friendly the Chinese Muslims are and see the multi-culture in this city.
    2. visit NaiLaoWei(奶酪魏) in Niujie(牛街) and try some traditional Beijing Cheese.
    3. visit BianYiFang(便宜坊) and try the best Beijing roast duck with a reasonable price (QuanJuDe is toooooo expensive and over priced).
    4. visit Duyichu(都一处) and taste dumpling in Beijing style.
    5. buy some desserts from DaoXiangCun(稻香村), a traditional Beijing bakery shop since 1773.
    6. if you are ok with pig intestine, just go to XiaoChangChen(小肠陈).
    7. visit Lao Ciqikou Douzhi Shop (老磁器口豆汁店)near the north gate of the Temple of Heaven and taste Douzhi(豆汁儿), the flavor is really unique .
    There are lots of places you should visit other than THIS food street in Beijing. and at the end, Welcome to Beijing!
