Video transcript
In this video we visit a restaurant in China Where each person has their own BBQ grill Perfect for solo diners A cute phone stand greets you at the table in case you get lonely For this place buying a coupon from an external app is much cheaper so that is what I be doing here In China it is common to use wechat or alipay on your phone to pay so set those up if you plan to come and you are good Hold on let me order a drink too Now I am ready to feast! For my drink I ordered a pineapple soda Comes in a large bottle for just $0.70 usd! It is cheap nice and
refreshing The grill uses a heating element rod similar to a toaster oven And once it turn red it is ready to cook I shall start with the thick-cut black pork belly first Nice, the grill is cooking well and also sucks up the bad smoke Since this is quite thin it should take no longer than a minute Here we get scissors as 1 of our tools All ready! Let me try it with some of their spicy dipping sauce Mmm, the pork is juicy and fatty with a nice crisp to it We are also given a thicker saltier spicy dipping sauce And a creamy nutty non-spicy one Yummy! There
is also Chinese style barbecue powder Which is also very spicy and makes everything taste better! Next I have the pineapple beef ribs It is said that pineapples helps to tenderise meats It contains bromelain which helps to break down their proteins All done Mmmm, it is indeed soft and tender The grilled pineapples have been caramelized and are extra sweet And having them together reminds me of a juicy meaty hawaiian pizza This would be the marinated angus short rib They are thin slices of slightly marinated fatty beef mixed in with onions All done and
nicely charred~ Wow, this was so juicy and delicious! It can get very fatty though so giving it a veggie wrap will make it more balance Here we can add kimchi Slice garlic And seasoned seaweed It added a layer of crunchess and refreshingness This would be the signature marinated skirt steak And it the the biggest thickest meat here today So this will take a while to cook Ok looks good now! Mmmm, yummy It is a chewy flavorful steak on the sweet side with a good bite to it Similar taste to those popular Korean bbq meats My last BBQ dish is sausage platter
The black one is made of squid And the other would be pork Done! The squid sausage was actually very tasty with seafood sweetness and bits of squids While the pork was fatty, oily and sweet which is like those Taiwanese sausage They give a chewy and bouncy texture which is quite a nice change from the meats My last dish for this set would be a beef bibimbap Here we are given a bowl of beef cubes to add to it Yummy! It was so flavorful So satisfying Having it with the BBQ meats from the grills was lovely Especially the marinated angus short rib For this
fatty meat coat the rice perfectly~ Overall this meal has a nice variety of food For about $20usd though it is consider pretty expensive in China But I guess if you are single and just paying for yourself it is not too bad! Mmmm
