We are suffering in China…TRYING THE SPICIEST DISH IN CHINA 🔥🇨🇳
We tried the spiciest dish in China, in the spiciest city in China!
Chongqing is famous for its mouth tingling, fiery hot pot.
Our local friend brought us to try this famous dish in Chongqing, and we were on fire!!! Yes, it burnt! Luckily Gaowei was so smart to order the non spicy broth for us.
Big thanks to our fellow Canadian, Alex from @Reporterfy and @iChongqing for all their help in the city. If you are thinking about visiting then check out their website as it is packed full of good resources: www.ichongqing.info
We are so glad to be in China. Yes, the Canadian government put up a travel advisory warning against visiting China. But China is not what the western media shows you. Come, and see it with your own eyes.

Haha, dealing with blood, intestines, and the stomach on the first attempt. You're jumping right into the challenging stuff from the beginning!
The good thing is they all have mild or no flavor, it’s just about the texture and dipping
chinese hotpot has 2 origins. southern chinese hotpot originated from chongqing area. it comes with spicy broth full of pig organs. in ancient time, there were lots of barge haulers and hard labors walking up and down on shores and hills in chongqing. spicy hotpots full of pig organs were a cheap source of protein for hard labors. northern chinese hotpot originated from arguably mongol troops. it comes with a pot of boiled water and salt. then you dip freshly sliced lamb meat into boiled water for a few seconds. then you eat it with some chive sauce.

Chongqing, China, you are super beautiful !!! Love you and l look forward to travel there one day. A big shout-out to Gaowei for introducing you both to mala hotpot. Yeah, blood from dosmetic animals (chicken, ducks, pigs) are edible and soft/tender when cooked. FYI, it shouldn't be cooked for too long. Steve, your chopsticks skill is marvellous....you are a pro, man. Well done, Steve ! Great that you both enjoyed the meal and have no stomach problem. A wonderful experience not to be forgotten. Thank you, Steve, lvana and iChongqing for sharing this gorgeous content.

Fellow Canadian here.Wishing for a better understanding between Canada,the world and China. We want PEACE and no more war. I want to support your channel and Alex,s. Just subscribed. By the way Tim Horton,s the pride of Canada? In China?
I am Chinese and I often use Tim Hortons as sort of mobile office with coffee and bagels, I wouldn't go that far as to say it a pride of China, but it is a decent alternative to Starbucks and Costa if you want to find a cafe to sit in. If you want your coffee to go, then Luckin is less pricey.
lol there are 200+ Tims Horton shops in Shanghai and 700+ shops all over China😊
Oh, it's everywhere here. It started its business like 3-4 years ago and after a short while it's everywhere. Many people thought it's better than Starbucks. Btw, starbucks realy sucks here.
@@constantineding8700 Anything is better than Starbucks.
@@jyyau but starbucks are safe choice for over roasted coffee all around the world, any starbucks in any country are equally bad. but not as bad as some random coffee shop, at least in China. but if there are any other brand I know in the area, I wont choose starbucks.
不做作,实话实说!一个字牛👍
Chongqing is where they start the cruise of the Three Gorges which terminates at the Three Gorge Dam which is a near must destination for all Chinese travelers.
Watching Steve trying new thing really cracks me up, you are a true warrior and thank you for having an open mind, I know it is not easy, it takes some real courage.
The clapping lady is a good ending for the vlog 😂😂
Great timing!what a lovely treat to watch before getting off work 🥰🥰
看完好想去吃火锅

Still love your video!! you guys are so lucky to travel there!! Love spcy food and definitively going to base our next trip there on the experience you guys have shared with us.
The broth is important for Chongqing hotpot as it gives the favour for the ingredients which are more or less have not much favour but only textures.

I love hot pot!!! Toronto has some really authentic Chong Ching and Chinese hot pot places. Restaurants like Lui Yi Shou ( branches in downtown, Scarborough and Markham) and Lao Jui Men in Scarborough are really really good! Hai Di Lao is good too but expensive and it's not all you can eat.

I spent a whole days to watch all your videos in China! They're so good and happy that I just can't stop! Thank you for your sharing and wish you a pleasant journey!🥰🥰
Wow!! I'm not sure I would be able to eat that, but sure would love to try!! 10 stars. Keep safe, healthy and happy.

Steve almost got a heart attack when knowing he gonna have duck blood🩸had me laugh so hard! 😂😂 According to The Chinese concept, duck blood has "cooling" effect, it helps to discharge the rubbish from your body. Good try 👍👍

What's most important is that Ivana got the food to her mouth. She still succeeded! Yay Ivana!
Really admire the depth you guys explored the amazing city!

You guys cook the beef tripe and duck intestines way too long that's why it tasted rubbery. 15 seconds maximum. The Chinese guy too busy eating his own food rather than help you to understand that. lol.
I have been watching the last few videos, started to wonder if Ivana is really Indonesian at all, probably left Indo when she was kid, lots of these hotpot foods are or were eaten in Indonesia as well, there are many parts of Indonesia. the Indonesians I know are so crazy about 🌶️ they ate everything with 🌶️ with with their rice.
MC is sooooo funny! Good man.
When he said you use "chopstick better than Ivana"! That reaction...Hahaha😂😂
Beef stomach is eaten in Eastern Europe, as well as the cow's internal organs, tongue, brain, liver, and intestines.
Thanks for 100 Subscribers.😍
good jobs. very enjoy your hardwork
Happy to see this series, it’s so enjoyable to see different side from your eyes. Just one little correction, Chinese people usually familiar with every single province and directly governed city including Chongqing,Tianjin, Shanghai,Shenzhen. So it’s always a popular travel destination for domestic tourists not only 5 years ago. Keep on going, hope you have a great time in other places.😊
for local people, sesame oil dipping sauce with spicy hotpot is classical choice. Soy sauce is collocated ChaoShan beef hotpot or GuangDong hotpot. northern hotpot with tahini sauce is the most choice.
麻油加一点蒜泥,本地大部分人这样组合。

As an eastern Chinese i can only have hot pot in light soup or tomato soup😂cuz i only accept a bit spicy flavor from the dipping,btw you should try some different soup type next time like tomato or mushroom and herbs,much milder tastes and gives those food a quite different flavor
For Chinese new year, maybe can visit a city called Xi'an. If the name is not familiar, this is where to terracotas are located. And it was the center for Chinese civilization for many dynasties. So it would be a lot of traditional Chinese elements and many people wearing traditional Chinese gowns on the street in the midth of many ancient Buildings
There's this Haidilao China restaurant in lpoh, Malaysia. You can choose the soup base but l didn't choose the ma la spicy soup. I enjoy the tomato , chicken and herb soup.
Thanks you,I am a high school student from China.When I Looked a foreigner can fairly discuss my mother-land , I so shocked that I can’t wait to write the tip to tell you my cheering!But I wish more foreigners of various nations to learn a real China ,instead of China displayed by false information deliberately fabricated by some media.(My English is not very good. Please forgive me for the wrong typos.)😂
其实大家都有翻译的,赞美科技
When you dip the paper thin Texas prime ribeye in the spicy chongqing hotpot, that’s heaven!
Actually for Chinese ppl have hotpot they are having the hotpot oil flavor with the texture of the food they cook. The tastes are the savory broth ingredients together with spices and chili in the oil, combine with the texture of the food. So like beef stomach, duck intestines and blood have little flavor themselves, the crispy/tender texture with the hot pot style are prefect combination. That's why Gaowei says that the shop owner wanna buy the freshest food from the market than frozen ones, since the fresher the better texture and less stale odor food would be.
If I was the tour guide I would definitely recommend you the best classic hotpot sauce. Especially for the spicier hotpots. The seasame sauce (sometimes peanut sauce) base with garlic, a little soy and any other toppings that you'd like such as chili oil, garlic chives, fermented tofu, green onions, etc. The nutty fatness of the sauce cuts down the spiciness while adding a richer savory flavor.
Awwh I want to find the girls video that you caught lol. I love when people capture others enjoying life like that. Shows you were all just living our own lives and trying to enjoy each moment.
Really fun to see Steve's reaction, also GaoWei is really great !😂

Ivana!! Omg... I can't believe u never eat blood in Indonesia?! Sekba? Never tried that before??? 😮
😁😁Welcome to Guangdong Province next time and try beef hotpot. This is a completely different taste of hotpot.
You guys are so cute to watch ^^ But, I must say, I'm always shocked that ppl from Toronto live with such a huge Chinese community, but never tried mala tang hotpot😅 It's like Chinese food central
Southern Europeans eat foie gras, duck liver, and chicken liver, usually made into sauce and eaten with bread.
Other parts of Europe also use animal blood in their cuisine, like in sausages, black pudding. I’ve also seen coagulated animal fat? Made into a cold dish? If I remember correctly I think that’s what it was.
O lived in Belgium and people there ate horse ham, but funnily enough it's only exoctic and weird if it's asians doing it!
scandinavia too, eats lots of liverwurst, cod liver, etc. and germans, it's not just southern Europe

I went to Chongqing during when u guys were there too!
really good video
Hi Ivana and Steve. Enjoy your videos in China very much. Would you please share the names of the places where you guys are? I know its in Chongqing.This place looks awesome. And also the temperature/dates so that we have an idea how cold it is in January(i guess). We will keep track. Thank you very much.
youre ingenious
Oh man.. now im hungry for hotpot....
If you have another video about China food ,please release it,I really love it!!!
Ice bear is the perfect match for hotpot 😀
indonesian called the cow stomach as Babat, Yvonne must know it
Very good❤
Your chopstick skill is good.
Nice video, but I have to say you guys cooked the stomach and intestines for way too long. Neither of them should be cooked for more than 10 secs and they should have a crunchy texture. If they taste chewy or rubbery then they are overcooked
Duck blood and the cow stomach with the mala hotpot are my favourite 😋
Hahah...Steve's reaction.
Oh dude ive went to everywhere u guys have went to in chongqing like just a month ago, i miss it lol
Lol, the ducks blood is the least challenging for me. But that's probably because we have blood pudding and sausage here😂
I’m guessing you’re from the UK?
真的很像豆腐
祝你玩得开心,吃得开心,我是重庆人,这里是我的家乡
Westerners also eat steak with blood in it. Is it strange that Chinese people eat duck blood?
you have a point. i guess the blood in the meat, is easier to accept than straight blood.
I see you really like Yogurt Cow,which is my favorite as well,especially after eating spicy food.
The block of fat in the mala side of the hot pot is beef tallow, not lard
I'm sure that if you were a duck vampire, you would love duck blood.
I can feel the heat and spicy just looking at that red soup.
people from English speaking countries usually just eat boneless whole chunk of meat. its really just a mental problem to eat animal internal, many of them actually taste very good.
the healthiest is liver, heart, kidney.
Noooooo, that’s too spicy, hope you be back Toronto with your tongue
I can eat pork blood but not intestines because of the smell. Pork blood needs to be in something with flavor, can’t eat it plain and tasteless.
小胖子不会指导,鸭肠不是那么吃的,是咬一点,吃完,然后再咬下一段。一口吃那么长的鸭肠,肯定咀嚼不烂。还有你跟外国人说“blood”,他当然害怕,你直接说那是“血豆腐”(blood tofu),他就想到的是豆腐而不是血
haha, why isnt our door handle hockey sticks is beyond me in Toronto
many of the Starbucks shops are much better too. they have a special coffee bar with different methods of brewing the coffee, with specialty coffee that is much more expensive, and some shops are multi-storey.

You guys make great videos!!! It is true, Stephen has better chopsticks skills, maybe Steve trained by the proper way.i am Chinese and my skill is bad.
Come on Steve . You eat those in China and is afraid of frango ao molho pardo ?? :D Big kisses to you both 😘 PS : i will want chopsticks lessons when you guys come here .
Have you tried the sesame sauce?? It's a must in hotpot.. is it good? (Everytime I see vlogs abt hotpot / malatang everyone said the sesame sauce is delicious 🥺 it makes me curious)
For chongqing they dont use sesame sauces. Sesame sauce is more of northern china thing
Thank you for showing the real China with your personal experiences, so that Westerners who have misconceptions about China due to the false reports of some Western media can better understand the real China. 感谢你们用自己的亲身经历展示真实的中国,让因为一些西方媒体的不实报道而对中国有误解的西方人更了解真实的中国。
when you add coagulating agent to duck blood, it will congeal and become solid, it's the food with the highest iron content, very nutritious.
Steve proved himself a real warrior - by eating the intestines, blood & etc…hahaha
Previously, the video had Chinese subtitles, but now it doesn’t. Chinese subtitles please
I love hot pot here in Melbourne! Not sure if I could eat hot pot in China though cause I can't really handle spicy foods 😅
I feel so hungry at midnight after watching you eat hotpot in Chongqing 😂
The stomach is quite unique. I've never liked it but it's not just an Asian thing. Lots of places eat it - its called Tripe in Europe and the first time I tried it was actually in Italy at a market in Florence. The blood as well - definitely not something I'd eat either 😅 but most countries eat blood of some kind. Black Pudding for example comes part of Traditional English Breakfast and is just congealed blood.

Chongqing food is not the spiciest food in China🤣Hunan, Guizhou, and Jiangxi food are all really spicy. Wish you have a chance to try someday lol
chong qing 重庆是麻辣,hu nan 湖南是香辣,gui zhou 贵州是干辣,jiang xi江西 真的真的超级辣。I think these places have different spiciness, but it's hard to describe in English.
太辣了反而不好吃

Hotpot is definitely my favourite....although me seeing your dipping sauce is like Italiens seeing a pineapple pizza lol, try sesame oil based sauce next time, it goes with spicy food
Really praise for the bravery of both of you, all kinds of new things dare to try, although it is not your usual taste, but still very optimistic to accept, and politely praise the taste is very delicious.
It's the same as French blood sausages..
hot pot is sooooo good😋!
