His most popular items include fermented bean curd, also known as “Chinese cheese,” fresh scallops, and fish liver. But what makes Shanghainese cuisine unique?

  1. I feel like this guy could be a terrible cook, but he’s the boss and signs the checks. I feel like he’s mistreating his workers, to show off.

  2. 3:38 seeing this guy's zest for life at that age is truly GOALS…that's how I wanna be when I hit his age.
    also, I think the choice in music is dope — it contrasts with what's expected for sure, but it also portrays the food in an aesthetic light that I think fits 🙂

  3. 上海那么多本帮菜馆,里面的大厨也有很多文雅的,为什么要找这么一家店?到底是哪个上海人给你们的信息,有上海户口不代表就是正经上海人,这个不是排外而是客观事实。找老上海人了解本帮菜才靠谱。

  4. What a great video I would love to eat here that music choice is adorable I love it you guys are so cute to keep going I'm proud of your life decision of being a chef it's inspirational and you're awesome!
