I'm mistakenly watch this video at 1am. Lol 01:01 omg that noodles with water spinach. That must be delicious. The vegetable must be crunchy. 05:02 dandan noodles seems so delicious 06:48 that barbecue pork rib. I'm hungry right now I love chinese sticky rice peanut. That tastes very good! Anyway, thank you for sharing this video. I see some delicious foods now in Chongqing

Hot pot is my choice, I think the reason for the green color of your dumpling, they use mixture of water and juice extracting from spinach when they prepare the dough.

Really enjoying your video! Sitting in quarantine (Covid) searching for sichuan food videos (some nostalgia from visiting years ago) and found yours among a lot of other videos - and you are really a breath of fresh air - you show the food - you say something but then it is also fast fun and full of good vibes - other food youtubers seem so long winded and fake in comparison - Why dont you have more viewers?
