(15 minutes by foot to the mapo tofu restaurant)
This is the typical dish of Sichuan.
I asked my husband for the recommendation.
I'm very confident.
(She's confident)
You won't be disappointed.
It's a food trip.
I'd like to go on such a trip too.
(Sights, Food)
(Food)
(Mapo tofu)
- I smell something extraordinary. / - Me too.
Of course, we should try mapo tofu.
We're in Sichuan.
- Exactly. / - Is this restaurant famous for it?
That's what I heard. It's my first time here as well.
I was told I must visit this place.
Thank you.
Are we ordering mapo tofu only?
No, we should order something else too.
I heard there's something I must try here.
Do you what it is?
You mean the one that was written on the sign
in front of the restaurant? Fuqi feipian.
I heard that and mapo tofu
are the representative dishes of Sichuan.
I was recommended to try something else as well.
- Kung pao chicken. / - We had that at your house.
Yes.
Okay. Let's try the dishes...
Mr. Baek recommended.
What is fuqi feipian?
Fuqi means "a couple" and
feipian means "sliced boiled intestines."
It's coming.
(What's their first dish?)
- It's served. / - This is fuqi feipian.
It looks amazing.
- So this is it. / - Yes, it's fuqi feipian.
Fuqi feipian.
It's one of the 100 traditional Chinese dishes.
- Chinese people must love this. / - Yes.
My family always eats this on Seollal.
(Typical dish of Sichuan made with different meats)
It looks delicious.
(Fuqi feipian, $5.70)
I can't wait to try.
It looks like intestines.
This is like the meat in the intestine soup in Korea.
- This is tripe. / - Tripe.
There is the beef heart.
When you thinly slice meat like that, it's called "pian."
- So it's sliced meat. / - Yes.
- It looks delicious. / - Amazing.
- It's red. / - That oil was incredibly good.
- It was so delicious. / - Fuqi feipian.
(Fuqi feipian)
(How does it taste?)
I'm a Chinese living abroad.
We eat this for Seollal.
This is one of the dishes we always eat on Seollal.
But we don't eat it with this spicy sauce.
Ours is made with garlic, soy sauce and vinegar.
But they made it spicy here in Sichuan style.
So you haven't tried this spicy version?
I have, but this is the first time
to try the original Sichuan-style one.
I see why he recommended it. It's so good.
This sauce is...
Now I feel the spiciness.
(Coughing)
- It hits you late. / - It's like spicy instant noodles...
With Cheongyang chili in it.
But the spiciness...
- It's savory as well. / - It's not just spicy.
It has a texture of whipped cream with the first bite.
- It's so soft. / - The chili oil is so good.
This is a good restaurant.
The chili oil was soft and tasty like whipped cream.
- Chili oil was? / - Yes, chili oil was.
And then the spicy flavor hits you.
It's very well put, saying it was like whipped cream.
- It's has great flavor and... / - It does.
- It tastes so airy. / - Exactly.
Sichuan dishes can be too much
because of the spices.
But anyone can eat this dish.
When it's too spicy, eat this.
It goes so well together.
(What's their next dish?)
(It's stir-fried chicken with chili peppers and nuts)
They say Korean people like Sichuan dishes.
- This goes well with rice. / - You eat this with rice.
At first, she said we didn't need rice
because we ordered so much.
- Right? / - But we finished all in the end.
(Kung pao chicken)
Cheers.
(What does kung pao chicken taste like?)
- Oh, my goodness. / - It's what children would like.
(This is what children would like)
- Anyone would love this. / - Anyone would love this.
It's not just sweet. It's sweet and savory.
It's a little spicy but it's tasty.
Yes. It's delicious.
How is the meat so tender?
The best thing about this dish is the nuts.
(It's made with nuts)
I have to eat this with rice.
- It looks so delicious. / - You eat that with rice.
- It looks so good. / - It must be good with rice.
I'll copy you.
You must eat this with rice.
(Wow)
- Sichuan has so much great food. / - It was so good.
(What does kung pao chicken taste like with rice?)
(She talks with her eyes)
It's here.
The main dish is here.
There's more.
- The mapo tofu. / - The mapo tofu is here.
- It's mapo tofu. / - Mapo tofu.
(Spiciness level 2 of the Zhendehao Tour)
It looks different from what we've seen.
It looks like soft tofu stew.
It's nothing like the mapo tofu we have in Korea.
- It's totally different. / - It looks like a stew.
The main dish is here.
I need some rice.
- You should eat it with rice. / - You need rice.
You definitely need rice.
Look at how beautiful this looks.
(Appreciate the beauty of mapo tofu)
- What should I do? / - Let me try it first.
Just mix it quickly.
(Rice covered with mapo tofu)
Sichuan mapo tofu has a lot of
chili peppers in it.
And minced meat.
- It has minced meat in it. / - This is so hard.
- It looks amazing. / - It tastes great with rice.
I'll have some Chinese food after this.
This is like torture.
I admit that the food is great there.
(Mapo tofu on rice is ready)
(What does mapo tofu taste like in Sichuan?)
It tastes so clean.
It's completely different from what we had in Korea.
This is nothing like that.
And this has different spiciness
from what we had in fuqi feipian.
This isn't smooth.
It comes in clean and gives you the taste of tofu,
then the spicy flavor hits right after.
It tastes very arrogant.
It tastes confident.
"I'm mapo tofu."
"What are you going to do about it?"
It tastes like that.
- "I am mapo tofu." / - "It's me. It's me."
When you go to Chengdu,
you have to taste this mapo tofu.
- You're right. / - I think this is excellent.
- It really is. / - I...
It feels like...
I did what I was supposed to do today.
Right, you did a good job today.
Thank you for taking me to this restaurant.
- Really? / - And tell your husband...
I appreciate his advice.
It was amazing.
- So, are we going to make a wish? / - Yes.
We have to see the statue.
We have to get ready early.
(Now it's time for the nature of Chengdu)
I'm overwhelmed.
- Even the path is pretty. / - Isn't it so pretty?
- The ear. / - Amazing.
This is huge.
Look at that.
- Bian Lian. / - Bian Lian.
That's right. It's Bian Lian.
It's convenient food.
(They conquer the taste of Chengdu)
This is the best Sichuan food.
This place is really popular.
It looks so good, right?
(Pleasure for your mouth, thrill for your body)
My ears are hot.
Wow. Let's go.
(Day 3 of the Zhendehao Tour)
This is second day of Zhendehao Tour.
Today, we're going to...
The Leshan Giant Buddha. I talked about it yesterday.
- There's a statue of the Buddha. / - Our first stop.
You might have seen it on TV before.
There's a huge statue of the Buddha.
It's called the Leshan Giant Buddha.
It was famous before
but it became even more famous
because Xi Jinping became the president...
After making a wish there.
Making it even more famous.
It's become even more famous.
And there's an interesting thing about this place.
Let's say we made our wish there.
If our wish is realized,
we have to visit the place again.
- Why? / - We have to go back there...
To say thank you.
- To thank the Buddha? / - So if we go there now...
We can visit the place again later.
I hope Raeyeon will get married next year.
I'll make a wish like this.
- Will your voice get heard? / - If you get married...
Don't whisper and just say it.
(This is the biggest stone-carved Buddha statue)
I'm so hungry now.
We should eat something first.
You're in charge of that.
Right, so I prepared something simple.
- I'm sure you'll like it. / - Is there a good restaurant?
- Can we have breakfast first? / - Of course.
- Let's eat first. / - Let's do that.

(First, they go to eat breakfast)
What are they having for breakfast?
What are they eating for breakfast in Sichuan?
We're having jianbing for breakfast.
It's a kind of crepe

(Excited)
(On thinly spread wheat-flour batter)
- Is that it? / - I've seen it before.
- Is this jianbing? / - Yes. It's jianbing.
It has egg in it.

It's very popular.
Let's order one that has chicken and pork in it.
And should we get one with beef in it?
I'll have one with a lot of meat in it.

People in their 30s love meat.

It looks delicious.
(Beef Jianbing, $2)
This is our first meal of the day.
It's jianbing.
Jianbing.
(Their first meal of the day)
I really wanted to eat this.
(Cutting the jianbing in half)
What is that? Is it fried shrimp?
They added something like nacho chips.
- To make it crisp. / - Right.
- It was good. / - I loved the texture of it.
The meat was tender and the chips were crispy.
- Great combination. / - I saw them sprinkle something.
This is so good.
It has egg, meat
and vegetables in it.
- Yes. / - Nutritionally, it's a perfect breakfast.
- It's the best. / - It's like a hamburger...
For breakfast. It's simple but filling.
- But this is much healthier. / - Right.
Exactly.
It looks delicious.
What is this crispy powder?
- This powder? / - Yes.
They make it with pork or beef.
- Okay. / - They make the powdered meat...
And add it on rice or porridge.
So they added it like seasoning in here as well.
It's sweet.
- Do you like it? / - Yes.
The powder tastes so good.
One jianbing is big enough for a woman.
Right. We could've shared one together.
We are actresses, so it was way too much for us.
(It's a delicious and hearty breakfast)
After we finish this, we will take a train.
Really?
We have to take the train.
Let's eat quickly so we can make it on time.
- You can also take out the food. / - Right.
Yes, takeout.
We had it at a mall near the train station.
You can buy it before getting on the train.
(It's so delicious that they can't even leave)
(Sights, Food)
(Sights)
(The Leshan Giant Buddha)
We have to see some attractions now.
- You just keep eating. / - Right?
(They arrive at the train station to see the Buddha)
So, we're going to the Leshan Giant Buddha now.
And we have to take a train.
It takes about 2 hours. That's why...
- We hurried out early. / - Do they sell food there?
We just had jianbing for breakfast.
And you want food again?
I just want some snacks.
Since we're in Chengdu,
it'll be fun to take a train to go to the suburbs.
