Changchun is my home city where I was born and raised until I was 12 before I came to Canada. I lived very close to Jingyuetan Park for six years (abt 10 min drive) and me and my parents used to go there on the weekends just to take a walk. I remember back in the days (early 2010s) there were unguarded entrances where you could just drive through for free and smh exist at the legit entrance. 😂 Not that I could recall neither the cableway nor the toboggan were there at the time but it's always great to see all those improvement. Never the less the metro lines had grown massive over the past few years (nothing compared to the big cities) but still glad to see the upgrade of the infrastructures. Haven't been back to China since COVID and this video is rlly nostalgic for me. Thank you very much for making this amazing video and I am really glad that you are enjoying your time at Changchun. 💞

Sisig is a good choice also, as is adobo. Most of my time is spent in Digos City, so fresh seafood is on the menu just about everyday. BBQ at a night market is always a great choice; my personal favorite is BBQ offal. Don't forget to check out Jollibee! You'll be pleasantly surprised. Ligtas na paglalakbay

Can you try an MSG free day in China? Literally the only thing keeping me from adventuring even the local diverse Chinese fare here in the states. I have a genuine sensitivity to it. I’m 1/2 Korean and have to tread carefully at Korean restaurants too. But a bit easier to avoid.

@nellychingo2010 Жыл бұрын

If you eat potato chips, doritos, any packaged ramen, any soup bouillon, canned soup, prepackaged deli meat, frozen dinners, salad dressing, condiments, hotdogs, sausage, and probably most things you have eaten - they will have MSG in it. MSG also has other names - yeast extract, vegetable extract, Sodium caseinate, natural flavors, modified enzyme, fortified protein, hydrolyzed soy and and corn protein, soy sauce extract, malt extract, citrate, seasonings, and so many others.

@elaine_qqliu8506 Жыл бұрын

If you don't like eating MSG, then my suggestion is that you can simply try to ask the chefs at the restaurants not to add MSG in the food ( maybe you can tell the waiter or waitress about your preference to see if they can accommodate to your situation). But for other pre-made food or snax, it is hard to avoid MSG for creating an MSG-free environment in food industry since lots of modern industrial food additives contains certain amounts of monosodium glutamate (MSG), like Dashida (다시다) the Korean instant beef stock which is high in salt and MSG, some chips like Doritos and Pringles also contain MSG to boost their flavor. However, personally I still use Dashida in my cooking just because a small stp can make my food taste so much betta😂, my husband who is Korean loves the food when I add a bit of Dashida too😂. Anyways, just try to ask the chef if they can skip adding the MSG if you don't like it, hope you have a nice experience in exploring the Chinese food in your city🎉❤
