We asked Mexican dads to try AUTHENTIC Chinese food for the first time! 🇨🇳
APPLY to papah! : forms.monday.com/forms/4b47f7...
The papahs tried mapo tofu which is a spicy, numbing tofu dish! Another dish they tried was peking duck, a classic Chinese dish consisting of crispy duck in a soft bao bun! A few other classic Chinese dishes were egg drop soup, xiao long bao, custard buns, kung pao chicken, and chicken feet!

What’s your favorite Chinese food? 😋
I always go for mushu vegetables since I’m a vegetarian. 😊 Please have the Mexican dads try Dairy Queen.
SPECIAL FRIED RICE!! 😋
i love the sweet and sour chicken with broccoli😋
@@joseluisandresfloresdiaz2953 WHY ARE YOU COPYING ME??!! 😋😋🙄
SWEET AND SOUR PORK! 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
I think you guys missed an opportunity to introduce some of the more spicier food that is available in China. Anything from Sichuan or Hunan. All I kept hearing from them was “It’s nice but need spice.”
Definitely. My extended family is from sichuan, and I remember one time my maternal grandma was roasting chiles, and she made everyone cough, which I thought was funny.

You're 100% right but at the same time not all food needs to be spicy. I love spicy but some things are better without the heat and I'm tired of hearing complaints that everything isn't spicy.
@@laurent.9968funny you say that, I am Mexican and to my knowledge this is very common in our Hispanic household Lol. We know to run when the chili smell hits.
Indeed. Almost every major city in China eats a lot of spice so it's crazy they omitted all of that in an "authentic" Chinese food video.
Really nice and polite guys. Maybe a quarter of these dishes are authentic LOL
Congee is spot on. Egg drop, depending on what they put in it. Xiao long bao is, but not served in metal tins and they need to be molten lava hot. I’m not so sure about the kung pao. Chicken feet absolutely. Custard bun yes, but Japanese influence. You’re trying to say that Peking duck is not authentic? Ok.. I’ll grant that the ‘bao’ is not. Needs to be thin pancakes.
Some of the stuff is authentic in its intent but not execution. The Peking duck was not traditionally executed at all. It just looked like a standard hongkong style roasted duck.
yup, and in beijing, we eat peking duck with a thinner pancake rather than an bao@@nsyart
Yeah that egg drop soup had fucking carrot and pea in it wtf.
Where is the chili oil and black vinegar too for the xiaolong bao? Just soy sauce is a no.
All the dads on this show seem like such chill dads
even though it didn't go with the egg drop soup, when he said he wanted hot sauce on it I so desperately wanted y'all to whip out the chili oil or the lao gan ma
Right? I’m amazed they didn’t have the ubiquitous little dish of lao gan ma chili crisp. Xiao long bao needs soy sauce, black vinegar and good chili oil.
They should've gotten them hot and sour soup, give them some chili oil on the side.
Lao gan ma, I'm drooling over the mere thought of it. That s**t is so good on anything!
Arturo loves every duck dish. A man after my own heart.
Would've loved to see them try chinese tamales - sticky rice in bamboo leaves
Hahahaha I have that lemon button up shirt. He definitely went to Target! 🤣
It's tough to cover such a broad subject. Each region has its entirely unique cuisine/taste. Something more relatable to compare to would be like different cuisines throughout europe! I think other large places like India would be the same too (just a guess)
I'm a bit weirded out by the dry xiao long bao. It's a soup dumpling but there's no soup inside when they bit into it.
....it's just a char siew bao?
I love Vincente’s voice it’s manly but so cute too.
Love seeing papahs try new food!❤❤❤❤❤
Sweet and sour pork is delicious! Please try colombian food soon!
Stop begging
@@Kennyporterstoppedmyfight68Stop being so miserable first
Love to see their reactions 🎉
Listening to them talk makes me miss my dad so much...
The title got me excited, but the food and video let me down tbh. I was hoping for way more different foods/dishes
Recommending Mapo tofu, Chongqing chicken/La Zi Ji, Dandan noodles/dandanmien, Yuxiang shredded pork, Leshan douhua(sichan soft tofu), Chili oil wontons, Zhangcha duck/ tea smoked duck, bang bang chicken, Yuxiang eggplants, twice cooked pork, Shaokao/chuar/skewers(Skewers are awesome) mala hotpot, etc this is just sichuan food. I'd love to see clay pot rice, rice rolls, braised spare ribs, Zhajiangmian, lu rou fan/braised pork over rice, Lanzhou beef noodle soup and taiwanese beef noodle soup(very similar)
@@greenmachine5600 Completely agree with you when they said "Authentic", I figured they would have wider variety of the best chinese foods. This looked like chinese food from a takeout spot. Also they should've provided white rice on the side to eat with.
@@greenmachine5600 Let's what I'm talking about, some real authentic Chinese food outta there!
great recommendations! I would have loved to see that. This food was kinda meh.
@@greenmachine5600 you forgot tea eggs. Peanut noodles. Disanxian. Jianbing guozi. Dongbei skewers are the best. Yu tofu, tofu skin, lotus root, chicken gizzard… 🤤
introduce them to some hmong food ! also, i love how nice the dads are. if its a food they dont like, they dont disrespect it. they just state that its simply not for them. most people would just spit out the food and then say some mean stuff about it.
The third guy is a man of culture
Please have them try szechuan/sichuan food!
i love these vids ❣❣
These guys just appreciate someone cooking for them.
I grew up eating most of this at dim sum for brunch/lunch hours on weekends. Some of the 'not so normal' items are what probably made me adventurous eating. Let me just tell you though, you are NOT missing out on anything if you don't eat a century egg. It is completely not for everyone. There are plenty of congee dishes without it and they are great.
Oh, I disagree. Congee must have pi dan. You can definitely add other ingredients like dried scallops (my favorite) but congee isn’t congee without pi dan and loads of white pepper
congee is basically like an arroz caldo
Yall should bring them to try to food fresh at restaurants.
Chinese food is regional with completely different flavors depending on location.They haven't even scratched the surface of what Chinese food is. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_regional_cuisine
Well yeah but that could be said for any culture's food. It would take hours of footage to cover it and then it would have to be edited. I don't think anyone has time for all of that.
@@jokipls any culture except British. They have roughly 6 dishes, mostly overlapped ingredients
@@chrisdiduch3347 can't even argue that, their food is dreadfully boring
@@jokipls Their meat pies are the best thing imo.
i will enjoy this ❤
Ooo they would’ve liked mapo tofu, it’s spicy
I so badly wished they tried mapo tofu! with rice ofc
@@greenmachine5600 you simply can’t do mapo tofu without rice!
I would love to share a meal with these gentlemen!
arturo's chicken flashbacks is sending me
Should have given them like I said chilli oil for the congee and also egg drop soup bit of wafer thin slices of tiny Asian chilli to garnish & add heat to the duck bao
Primera vez que miro estos videos y admiro lo respetuosos que son aparte de que no les gusta el platillo son bien respetosos alas culturas🙌🏼🥰
Love chinese food and japanese cuisine yummy
u guys should try authentic Hawaiian food if u can find it!! squid or chicken luau, lomi lomi salmon, chicken long rice, pork lau lau, poi (with food!! don't eat it by itself!), haupia, kalua pig, etc!!
Had chicken feet soup, and my family trini so souce but never herd of them steamed
They’re usually marinaded and braised or steamed.
I would love to see you guys try Haitian food it think they’d love it 🇭🇹💕
If they want spice, get them to try some real Szechuan dishes!
Yeah was disappointed there wasn't any Sichuan dishes. At least the kung pao chicken they could've done sichuan style. Every culture whose a fan of spice (Indian, Mexican, Indonesian, etc.) tends to love sichuan food
Definitely Sichuan huoguo. With all the tasty tasty innards and off cuts. If they like menudo they’ll love hotpot.
I like how one dad re-engineered the peking duck baos into duck tacos in his head
Can you do Indonesian food next! We have a very high population so you will get a lot of views! :)
Different regions of chinese food next please
Some of the best chinese food I've ever had was in Mexico. The shrimp were huge; the size of the palm of my hand. Watch out for the soup, though. It literally is boiling when it comes to the table.
authentic? next week chinese people try authentic mexican food from chipolte
Congee!-Is My Favorite!-But I Love-To Put Hot Sauce-On All Of My Foods!-Including-Mexican Foods!-Raymond "Mike" Hong!&(Great Videos-PAPAH!-Mike!)😎👍!!!!!!!!!
Would be nice also if you tag the location/restaurant so we could support local businesses! 😊 or we can recommend not just cuisines but restaurants so you can try best of that cuisine too
Really respectful ❤
I would swap out egg drop soup for some herbal chicken soup and kung pao for boil chicken with ginger garlic sauce 😂
I know that wet chicken feather smell! My job as a kid was to pluck pin-feathers...back in the 1970s baby!
Is that braised gai lan with the Kung pao?
Looks like it.🤦♂
@@RizReyes Hey it’s a choice lol
More likely steamed with a Chinese white sauce but yea.
It is rather cliche food then authentic food of China
Vicente ❤❤❤
the mexican dads should do a greek food video. i want to see them compare a gyro to a taco
I ordered Chinese food just for this video
Xiao long bao with no soup inside? And served in those tins? No vinegar or chili oil?
These dads would LOVE hot and sour soup
I love congee!!!!!! The egg is the best part!!
Right?! You should try pi dan in lao gan ma. Chinese deviled egg. Such a great appetizer.
Can they try different buldak noodle flavors
Hek buldak bokkeumyun for the win.
Do the jelly bean challenge
👍👍👍👍
👍🏼🤙
The mystery jelly beans
egg foo young
Arturo stopped saying bussin
Give them chili oil!!!
Very cool idea - unfortunately I think some of the food didn't quite look authentic (Peking Duck and the Kung Pow Chicken in particular), but very interesting to see how other cultures experience Chinese cuisine. Thanks!
When are y’all gonna do Puerto Rican food? 😭🇵🇷
Giant pandas are actually no longer an endangered species!
Please do another one with more spicy dish from china. Cuz there's a lot.
Maybe Malaysian/Singaporean/Indonesian food would be good to try for the next video? :)
Saborcito el panecito q esta bien riquito xD
Next Arabic food please!
Particularly Yemeni
How could you eat congee without the fried bread !? That’s like eating 2 Sunnyside eggs with grits and no bread
Love the video! But I just wanted to note that pandas are not endangered, just vulnerable. They were taken off the endangered species list years ago. I know it’s a small thing, but just figured I’d mention it.
Should’ve gave them mapo tofu
When you see the veggie in the Kung pao Chicken, you know it's not "AUTHENTIC"...
Right? Funny thing is, that veggie being more authentic Chinese than the rest of that ‘dish’.
@@chrisdiduch3347 that doesn't make any sense to me...
hello ❤
It's funny because those as the mildest Chinese food. It sucks as well that they don't like the Pidan Shourou Zhou nor the Dim Sum style Chicken Feet since they're two of my most favourite dishes. I pretty much gauge the Dim Sum restaurant depending on how well they made these two dishes. The Peking duck in the other hand is tough. Everyone have their favourite restaurant and it can be either meaty (normally non-Chinese would love this) or a so called "true" Peking duck will be skin only and the bao would be steamed pancake instead. I do think that they would never like the authentic local Chinese food though as my partner (she's Chinese) would eat plenty of black vinegar and anything with Sichuan pepper/ oil. While Mexicans can handle spicy, Sichuan pepper is just ... different. In addition to this, my partner would take black vinegar like how Mexican eat with Tapatío.
Last I checked, the Red Panda was more endangered than the Giant Panda.
1. Giant Panda conservation status just changed recently, thanks to chinese conservation efforts. In 2021, it changed from endangered to vulnerable. Giant Pandas are considered endemic to China. 2. Red Pandas are not considered endemic to China. They live in some parts of China, but their origins are widespread between several countries that share suitable habitats. 3. The question was specifically about China. Giant Pandas geographic habitat is more limited than red Pandas.
The tan shirt dude, I think Arturo?, is _never_ happy with any dish as is! 😂😂😂 It *always* needs something or he thinks something similar is better. I've watched a bunch of these Papah vids now, and it's the same thing every time! "It's good...but it needs x, y, and Z/It tastes like [x], which is better."
exactly, we dont mess with no chicken feet or feet of anything. you crazy : P
I think there’s 2 Mexican dads and one that constantly talks about ma-he-co and his Mexican heritage
Why didn't they rate it?? .it's weird without the ratings.
Hey guys, love the channel! I wanted to see if yall want to try Indonesian food. Let me know if you're interested. We'd love to do a collaboration with you all ✌️😁 love from your Indonesian fans in Los Angeles 🇮🇩🇮🇩
The first dish, the rice porridge, is missing something. It should have sauce on top.
something is wrong with the audio in this video
The dishes may be authentic but I can tell they were not good versions of them, especially the kung pao chicken. Also, they probably ate it cold or room temp which takes a lot away from the flavor. Chinese food is meant to be to be eaten hot. I love these videos and wished the papahs and mamahs could try real authentic Chinese food.
Yes, best Chinese food in Mexico = Mexicali ❤
I don’t any sauce all Asian food comes with chili oil or some kind sauce with our food but yah didn’t give it to them what a let down
The guy with the grey beard seems like a cool person t9 smoke with and have a beard
You guys really should've given them some food from Chongqing and Sichuan. I've heard a weird stereotype Black and Latin people have that Chinese food "isn't spicy". Idk how that started, but it's very much not true, and anyone who has food from both these places would never repeat it ever again.
That kung Pao chicken is way too watery
I'm brave enough, but for me, chicken feet is for broths. Best use for all that collagen.
Shouldve introduced northern cuisine where its lots spicier. And wheres the soup in the soup dumpling??
What? Southwestern is spicier. Sichuan, Hunan etc. I wouldn’t say northern is spicier… It is frickin tasty that’s for damn sure.
lol Teriyaki is Japanese lol that’s possibly Hoisin sauce
You could have introduced the spicy food from China 😢.. really missed out that opportunity
Should’ve done mala
Mala what? That’s like saying they should have done sour/tangy.
@@chrisdiduch3347 haha, yes, that’s true Mala anything. They kept making comments about wanting spicy foods, so give them a different experience with the numbing spice.
@@lang-ed3bk lol. Definitely mala buldak bokkeumyun. I know, not entirely Chinese, but neither were some of the dishes they were eating.
For a Mexican that eats tongue trompa oreja and all that shit and pass on that egg Shit is real
My dad went to China once on business. It was nowhere near any tourist area, so he got the authentic experience, including food. So I have to ask: Where's the yak bladder?
Northern China I’m guessing?
@@5k3m. You are correct, sir.
@@RaynmanPlays yay :D Where did he go?
You gave Chinese food to Mexican dads...with 2 mistakes...one you didn't give sichuan food...2 NO LAOGANMA??? 😭
Honestly, I'm Chinese and while I love the taste century egg gives my congee, I never eat the egg itself either, it's too strong for me.
Gotta have pi dan sliced with lao gan ma. Sooo good. But I also love it in congee
Is it weird that I can't taste it at all? It's just texture for me.
You know your taste buds must suck if you need hot sauce for everything
