Special price: 25 yuan for two skewers! Hello friends, I’m Xiao Xin. In this video, I’ve come to Qingdao, Shandong, China, to show you the local breakfast and night market delicacies. At 7 a.m., I arrived at the locals’ favorite breakfast street. Let’s see what delicious food they have! Making fried dough sticks (youtiao) is no ordinary snack; it’s a “national breakfast” ingrained in our bones. The white dough instantly puffs up and turns golden brown, frying until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside in just a few minutes. The method for making fried dough sticks is very simple. The core is using wheat flour. The chef will roll the rested dough into a thin sheet, cut it into strips, stack two strips together , and put them into a pot of boiling oil to fry until the dough puffs up and turns golden brown and crispy. It’s that simple! A few common ingredients, after fermentation and high-temperature frying, become a delicious pie that’s crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It’s also a very popular breakfast at Chinese morning markets . The outer layer is slightly crispy, while the inside is soft . For Chinese people, this is a “must-have breakfast” at the morning market. Grandparents buy two after their morning exercise to eat with porridge, while busy commuters grab one to eat on the go. Now we’re making chive and egg filling. The key is the freshness of the chives and the tenderness of the eggs. Wrapped in the pie and baked, it’s refreshing with the aroma of chives wrapped around tender egg pieces. This classic flavor at the morning market is both refreshing and filling. It costs 2 RMB. Wonton is a very popular breakfast among Chinese people. The thin, translucent wrapper holds a small ball of delicious filling. Pinch a few delicate little pleats and you stand in front of the stall, watching their fingers fly, wrapping a large plate of wontons in just a few minutes . A serving of these winter breakfasts will warm you from head to toe. The wonton wrappers are so soft they break at the slightest touch, the fillings are fresh and juicy , and paired with a delicious broth, the warm broth soothes your stomach comfortably. A serving of potstickers costs 10 RMB. On the hot griddle of the morning market, there’s always a row of crescent-shaped potstickers that look like small dumplings. The wrappers are filled with meat and vegetable fillings , fried until half soft and half crispy and fragrant. Freshly cooked potstickers are piping hot; when you bite into them, a little juice flows out. The soft wrapper encases the tender filling, and you can even bite into the crispy flakes—fragrant and filling! You can grab one and eat it on the go in the morning. Whether enjoyed with a bowl of porridge or slowly savored, these are both popular breakfast options. The mobile porridge stall owners cook the porridge early in the morning and sell it in insulated containers, making it a convenient breakfast choice. Eight-Treasure Porridge : The “eight treasures” in its name refer to the various grains and beans used, such as rice, red beans, peanuts, red dates, lotus seeds, and longan—common ingredients. A serving costs 3 RMB. A mouthful of hot porridge warms you up for the whole morning. Pork Tenderloin Patties: These are very filling and a popular choice. The patties are made with pre-marinated pork tenderloin, pan-fried until slightly charred, and then tender and juicy inside. When making the patties, the stall owner takes a soft dough, tops it with a generous layer of hot pork tenderloin, and brushes it with a savory sauce . Its most appealing feature is its “large portions and affordable price.” For 7 RMB, you get a bite of tender meat, soft pancake, and crisp lettuce—it’s incredibly delicious and satisfying. Whether you’re a student in a hurry grabbing it on the go or a working professional having it for breakfast, this affordable and filling tofu skin and egg burger from the morning market is a great option. Whether you’re a student with a backpack or someone rushing to work, everyone loves to queue up for one. The vendor first scoops a spoonful of batter into a mold, then adds a layer of seasoned minced meat and frys it over low heat until both sides are golden brown and crispy . The texture is so appealing: a crispy and chewy batter shell, half of which is a tender and moist egg, and the other half is filled with flavorful meat filling. (4 RMB) One RMB-denominated steamed bun , brushed with savory chili sauce or sweet bean sauce, soft and tender with a hint of caramelized flavor, is a truly satisfying treat . The vendor is freshly rolling out thin, soft dough , wrapping it around a generously mixed fresh meat filling , and pinching it with their fingers to create delicate pleats before arranging them one by one into a bamboo steamer. The savory flavor is just right, not greasy, and the soft, thin skin combined with the steamed bun makes this hot steamed bun a satisfying and juicy treat in the morning. Another popular breakfast item is the roujiamo (Chinese hamburger), a “hardcore breakfast” at the morning market. Tender, braised pork belly is scooped from a boiling pot, chopped, mixed with diced green peppers and cilantro, stuffed into a bun, and then drizzled with a spoonful of braising sauce, allowing the aroma to permeate every crease of the bun. The hot and sour soup is also delicious. Addictive, just the right amount of spiciness without being overpowering, with a subtle spiciness and fragrant seasoning aroma that whets the appetite. The tofu pudding , white and tender, is served in a bowl like a smooth pudding. The vendor pours on a savory gravy; just a few seasonings are enough to make it incredibly delicious. Qingdao’s morning market seafood is a “direct gift from the sea,” priced 15%-30% lower than supermarkets , yet offering fresher and more affordable seafood. If you come to Qingdao, you must get up early! If you come to Qingdao, you must get up early and explore these vibrant morning markets . At 7 pm, I returned to Qingdao’s most lively food street. Let’s take a look at the nighttime delicacies through the lens. What are some cheese-stuffed sizzling ramen dishes? First, cook the sizzling ramen until it’s chewy and flavorful, then pour it over a spread of egg mixture . Add more sizzling ramen, then top with stringy shredded cheese. Fry until the egg is soft and the cheese is slightly melted. It’s absolutely delicious! The spicy sizzling ramen is wrapped around the creamy cheese , and the soft egg wraps around the chewy noodles. It’s spicy with a hint of sweetness, and the more you eat, the more addictive it becomes. It’s a must-try internet-famous delicacy for those who love strong flavors and cheese. Finally, squeeze on some yellow mustard and ketchup for seasoning, adding more layers of flavor. Pan-fried bun vendors place the dough filled with fresh meat filling into a hot oil pan and fry until the bottom forms a golden-brown crispy crust. Then, add a little water and simmer until the dough is soft and translucent. Sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving. The aroma of oil mixed with meat can waft across half the night market street. Biting into it, you first suck on the fresh juices, the crispy bottom… 15 RMB a serving, a few hot bites are enough to satisfy your craving . Stinky tofu, the “smell bomb,” is none other than stinky tofu. Square pieces of black tofu are fried in hot oil until the outer skin is covered with crispy little bubbles and glistens with oil. Then they’re dipped into a secret stinky brine— that’s both “stinky and fragrant.” Its unique aroma can entice people to stop half a street away. Takoyaki is a delightful bite-sized snack. Real octopus pieces are coated in batter and baked in small round molds until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The aroma can be smelled from afar. Topped with creamy salad dressing and sprinkled with seaweed flakes , it’s a must- have for night markets—hot and satisfying. Sweet and fragrant egg rolls are another essential snack to take home. Vendors use round metal molds to pour in batter mixed with eggs, flour, and sugar, baking it over low heat until it sizzles and quickly turns into golden, thin, and crispy rolls. The finished egg rolls are still warm, and they make a satisfying “crunch” when you bite into them. A serving of fried hairy tofu, costing 10 RMB, is a unique Chinese “fermented delicacy.” Each piece of tofu is covered in fine white fuzz, the “essence” of natural fermentation, making the tofu softer and more flavorful. Each bite is incredibly layered, with a crispy outer layer encasing soft tofu. The savory and spicy flavor is subtly sweet from fermentation , and the more you chew, the more fragrant it becomes—completely free of any strange taste you might expect. For chive pancakes , the vendor uses thin, soft dough, filled with chopped chives and a soft egg, shaped into a half-moon, and then slowly fries it on a griddle until the outer layer develops a golden-brown, crispy crust. Through the thin crust, you can see the vibrant green chive filling inside. Three freshly made chive pancakes, piping hot, burst with flavor when you bite into them. With a crisp crack , the outer skin is crisp and chewy, while the inside is soft and tender. The fresh aroma of chives mingles with the fragrance of eggs, creating a savory and delicious bamboo tube rice dumpling . The vendor stuffs soaked glutinous rice into fresh bamboo tubes and steams it until cooked. The rice absorbs the fresh fragrance of the bamboo, becoming sticky and chewy. When eating, the vendor slowly pushes the rice dumpling out of the bamboo tube, skewers it, and coats it with white sugar . One bite reveals a soft, sticky, and sweet flavor with a subtle bamboo taste. It ‘s not cloying and still warm. Holding it in your hand and munching on it while walking, it’s a popular , warm, and sweet snack at the night market . This is the “hardcore craving-satisfying king” of the night market— Large skewers of meat (usually pork or lamb) sizzle and drip with oil on the charcoal grill . The vendor casually sprinkles on cumin, chili powder, and sesame seeds, the aroma wafting down the street. Vendor: 2 skewers for 25 yuan, discounted! The perfectly grilled skewers have a crispy, fragrant exterior and a tender, juicy interior. The meat’s aroma blends perfectly with the spicy seasonings, making each bite satisfying and delicious. Whether you’re a tired tourist or a local, everyone loves to grab a few skewers – so satisfying! Chicken sandwich: Look at the griddle, the tender chicken is stir-fried until fragrant and juicy. The vendor slices open the crispy-on-the-outside, soft- on-the-inside round pancake and stuffs it with piled- up chicken , making the pancake bulge and feel heavy in your hand. It’s a hearty treat at the night market that can satisfy your cravings and fill you up. A serving of fried chicken strips costs 8 RMB. The chicken strips are coated in crispy batter and tossed into the hot oil, sizzling until golden brown and crispy. They ‘re drained of oil, placed in a paper bowl, and the vendor sprinkles cumin and chili powder to taste. One bite is amazing—the outer layer crackles! Crispy enough to crumble, with tender, juicy chicken inside , it’s a classic, satisfying snack you’ve enjoyed since childhood at the night market. Watch the vendor place the thin pancake on the hot oven and wait for it to puff up. Then, they poke a hole and pour in egg mixture. The egg mixture creates a tender, golden-yellow layer inside the pancake. It’s then cooked until the outside is crispy and fragrant. The pancake is chewy yet crispy, filled with tender egg —savory, flavorful, and filling. Whether for breakfast at the morning market or a late-night snack at the night market , grabbing one is always a satisfying treat. The delicious beef rice noodles, with their rustic charm, are made with smooth rice noodles cooked until soft and then scooped into a bowl. Topped with tender, flavorful slices of stewed beef, they’re incredibly satisfying. The rice noodles are slippery and coated in savory broth, while the beef is tender and easy to chew. Whether you’re feeling chilly after a walk or just hungry, this warm bowl, brimming with authentic flavor, is a unique night market snack that brings a sense of homely happiness. A serving of old-fashioned grilled cold noodles costs 15 RMB. Thick, chewy wide noodles are laid out on a hot griddle and brushed with sesame oil, sizzling hot. When the dough is fragrant and slightly crispy at the edges, crack an egg and spread it evenly over the dough. Add the egg mixture and coat the cold noodles. Bake until semi-solidified, divide into portions , flip and fry on the other side. Brush with a secret sweet and savory sauce. You can also roll it up with crispy sausage and tender onions. One bite of the soft and chewy cold noodles, coated with the aroma of egg and the crispy flavor of the ingredients, is hot and flavorful. It’s a classic taste you’ll want to grab at any night market, no matter when you’re there. For 15 RMB, you can get a large pancake roll. The vendor will spread out the crispy on the outside and soft on the inside round pancake and fill it with your favorite vegetables. The stall is full of vegetables, then brushed with savory sauce , and various side dishes are added. Roll it up tightly and take a bite. It’s incredibly satisfying. The crispy and chewy pancake wraps around the crispy fried food and the fresh vegetables. Every bite is delicious. Offering a variety of textures , the night market offers high-value snacks that can satisfy cravings and fill you up. The round flatbreads on the grill, coated with cumin and chili powder, are grilled to a golden-brown, glossy sheen with small, charred spots. The perfectly grilled flatbreads are chewy on the outside and soft on the inside. Each bite is savory and spicy, with the aroma of scallions seeping into the soft dough, becoming more fragrant with each chew. Some vendors even brush on a layer of savory sweet bean sauce, making it even more moist and delicious. Holding it warm, the smoky aroma is irresistible. The meat flatbread vendor rolls up flatbreads filled with tender meat filling and bakes them in the oven until the outer layer is golden and crispy . The filling is then spread out, topped with corn kernels, and baked again. Fresh out of the oven, the glossy flatbreads are infused with the aroma of meat, wafting across half the night market. The outer layer crackles… Crispy and crumbly, the inside is filled with tender, fresh meat filling, savory with a hint of sweetness from the meat, and the aroma of sesame seeds clinging to the crispy shell. Every bite is crispy, fragrant, juicy, and refreshing. The Guangxi specialty snack stall is piled high with freshly cut fruits and vegetables (such as pineapple, mango, plum, cucumber, and guava). After you choose your favorite ingredients, the stall owner will mix them with chili powder, licorice powder , and sometimes even a spoonful of sweet and sour sauce, creating a flavor profile of “sweet, sour, fresh, and spicy.” The mixed flavors of fruit, sweet and sour, crisp vegetables, and a hint of spiciness— after indulging in greasy grilled skewers and fried food at the night market, a serving of this sour dish is both refreshing and appetizing . The stall is filled with steaming hot braised dishes , specializing in braised duck necks, as well as duck wings and feet. All are braised in a spice-infused sauce until they are a glossy red and flavorful. Freshly scooped out, they are still steaming hot, their aroma irresistible, tempting you to grab a portion of your favorite braised food and pack it in a box. Each bite is tender yet chewy. The special mixed chicken frame is first braised until fragrant and flavorful. The vendor then breaks it into small pieces and mixes it with crispy peanuts, tender bean sprouts, fragrant dried tofu, and fresh vegetables. Every bite is coated in the sauce , creating a multi-layered flavor experience. The chicken frame is tender yet chewy, perfectly complemented by the crispness of the ingredients, the savory peanuts, and the rich sauce—it’s the kind of dish that makes you want to lick your fingers clean. Whether enjoyed as a snack or a late-night treat with a drink, these snacks are perfect. The specialty noodles are incredibly flavorful: the noodles are chewy and springy , pulled by the vendor on the spot , each bite bursting with savory aroma. A hot bowl is both filling and satisfying. The aroma of oil and chili oil wafts out, creating a tantalizing fragrance . The large steamed buns at the night market have soft, sweet-smelling dough filled with juicy fillings, then pan-fried. The stir- fried rice noodles are spread on a hot griddle, coated in oil, mixed with crisp cabbage shreds, and seasoned with savory soy sauce or chili sauce. The aroma and heat are irresistible, making them incredibly delicious. The smooth rice noodles are coated in sauce , each bite moist but not greasy, filling and bursting with the vibrant flavor of the night market. The egg burger vendor pours batter into small round molds and fries them, creating a crispy exterior and a soft interior. The egg burger, freshly made and piping hot, is filled with juicy meat filling in a small pancake base . One bite is incredibly comforting. It costs 5 RMB each and is finished with a secret sauce for extra flavor. Fried balut (or fertilized egg) is made with a fertilized chicken and its developing embryo , a truly authentic street food. The egg is first boiled, then fried on a hot griddle until the shell is crispy. While it looks unusual, the texture is wonderfully different. The crispy shell encases the soft egg and embryo, infused with the aroma of spices, creating a savory and delicious flavor that many people specifically seek out when visiting night markets. For 3 RMB, a grilled cold noodle stall owner lays wide, chewy sheets of cold noodles on a hot griddle and grills them until soft, moist, and slightly charred. Then, an egg is cracked onto the noodles, spread evenly, and cut into small pieces. The stall owner stirs continuously, adding a spoonful of sweet and sour vinegar sauce for flavor. The soft, chewy noodles are coated in the egg’s aroma, and the crispness of the toppings blends with the savory sauce. The stall also offers freshly made and steamed specialty steamed buns, all filled and steamed to order by the owner. The steamed buns are enveloped in the fragrant aroma of bamboo steamers . The Chinese people’s love for steamed buns is a national favorite ingrained in their daily lives. During festivals and family gatherings, kneading dough, mixing fillings, and making steamed buns are common activities. The “little ritual” at the night market features stir- fried pork with chili peppers , all freshly stir-fried to order. The pork belly and crisp green peppers are quickly stir-fried together, resulting in a delicious and tender dish with crunchy peppers and a slight spiciness. It’s perfect with rice or rolled into a pancake— a “rice-eating essential” that everyone loves at the night market. The incredibly fragrant “preserved mustard greens flatbread” is made by wrapping dough around savory preserved mustard greens (sometimes with meat filling), baking it on a griddle until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and sprinkling it with sesame seeds and scallions. It smells amazing and tastes wonderful— the crispy, salty flavor of the preserved mustard greens combined with the aroma of sesame seeds makes it even more delicious with each chew. The more delicious it is, the more you can find it. For 6 RMB, you can find stir-fried noodle stalls everywhere in the night market. The vendors quickly stir-fry noodles with eggs, vegetables, shredded meat, and other ingredients on the spot. The fragrant aroma of the wok can be smelled from afar. Chinese people especially love stir-fried noodles ; they are quick and fragrant. Each region’s stir-fried noodles have their own unique flavor. What you’re enjoying is this smooth, warm, and comforting feeling. For 10 RMB, you can find a serving of street- side pasta. Western-style pasta is prepared using Chinese street-side stir-fry methods. After the pasta is cooked, it’s quickly stir-fried with eggs, onions, and other ingredients, then coated with the vendor’s fragrant sauce. The aroma of the wok is incredibly enticing. The pasta is chewy and has a savory flavor from the Chinese sauce. You can definitely find fried skewers at Chinese night markets. The stalls display a wide variety of skewers, and you can choose your favorites. The vendors fry them in hot oil until they’re crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, then brush them with sweet, salty, or spicy sauces. Everyone loves fried skewers —they’re fragrant, you can choose your own , and they’re convenient to eat while strolling through the night market. They’re a popular snack that everyone seems to have in hand. Street vendors stir-fry chicken by cutting fresh chicken into small pieces and adding potatoes, green peppers, and other side dishes, then quickly stir-frying it on the spot. The chicken is incredibly tender, and the side dishes are infused with aroma. It’s a popular dish at night markets, enjoyed while strolling and eating in a lively atmosphere. The meat slices are incredibly tempting. The Fuding meat slice vendor grinds fresh pork into a fine paste , mixes it with starch, and then spoons it into the boiling broth. Once the slices float, they’re scooped into a bowl and eaten. It’s absolutely delicious: the meat slices are springy and tender, not dry at all , coated in a warm, sour, and spicy broth that’s incredibly refreshing. Fried chicken strips are deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. Marinated chicken strips are coated in breadcrumbs and fried , then sprinkled with cumin and chili powder, or brushed with sweet chili sauce – both are delicious. They ‘re crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a soft and fragrant chicken. I’m so glad you watched this episode of City Food Exploration.
