10 things that are wrong with Din Tai Fung as compared to typical American Chinese restaurants.

相較典型的美國中式餐廳，鼎泰豐的十大問題。

I'm Chris, this is Yellow Productions; I do travel guides that are fun, informative, entertaining.

我是 Chris ，這部影片由黃色製作出品。我製作的旅遊指南很有趣、內容豐富、有趣。

I love Chinese food and Din Tai Fung is my favorite Chinese restaurant.

我喜歡中餐，並且鼎泰豐是我最喜歡的中式餐廳。

But it didn't used to be because I didn't know about it.

但以前不是這樣，因為我不知道。

They've recently started opening here in the US and across the world.

他們最近開始在美國和世界各地開業。

If you've never heard of it, it's a chain from Taiwan that serves northern-style Chinese food.

如果你未曾聽說過它，讓我來介紹一下，它是來自臺灣的連鎖店，供應北方中式料理。

They're most famous for their xiao long bao; I'll tell you about that later.

他們最出名的莫過於小龍包。稍後我將介紹小籠包。

[If] You're like me⏤you're from America and you've eaten in a lot of Chinese restaurants⏤your frame of reference for Din Tai Fung will fail you a little bit

[如果]你跟我一樣⏤來自美國，吃過很多中餐館⏤你對鼎泰豐的參照系會有點讓你失望。

But in this video, I'm gonna help you, if it's your first time coming, to know all the things that you're gonna think are wrong with it.

但在這個影片中，如果你是第一次來，我將幫助你了解你認為的所有問題。

But, spoiler alert, it's really delicious; you should come.

但是，劇透警告，它真的很好吃； 你應該來。

The first thing that's wrong with Din Tai Fung is the menu.

What are all these things on the menu, and where are my American Chinese classics?

菜單上這麼多東西是什麼，我的美式經典中餐在哪裡？

Where's the broccoli beef? Where's the orange chicken? Where's the Kung Pao chicken?

花椰菜牛肉在哪裡？ 橘子雞在哪裡？ 宮保雞丁在哪裡？

And you know what? I don't think Din Tai Fung thinks very kindly of General Tso because his chicken is nowhere to be found!

你知道嗎？ 我不認為鼎泰豐對左宗棠有什麼好感，因為他的雞根本找不到！

為什麼是這樣？ 菜單上有什麼？

Well, apparently, it's Chinese food that Chinese people actually eat.

很顯然，有中國人吃的那種中餐。

The second thing that's wrong with Din Tai Fung are the floors and the tables⏤they are not sticky at all!

鼎泰豐的第二個毛病是地板和桌子⏤一點也不黏！

There's something wrong with that; I am used to going into Chinese restaurants and hearing my feet go (smacks).

這有問題； 我習慣了走進中式餐廳，聽到我的腳步聲（噝噝聲）。

And when I put my elbows on the table, having to have some effort to take my elbows back up again.

當我把手肘放在桌上時，必須費點力氣才能再次抬起手肘。

Because how am I gonna know that the diners at that table actually had a good time before me if I can't see the residue from their previous meal?

因為如果我看不到他們上一頓飯的殘留物，我怎麼知道那張桌子上的食客實際上在我之前吃得很開心呢？

And not just the tables being clean, but the things and sauces on the table are super clean and always full.

不僅桌子很乾淨，而且桌子上的東西和醬汁都超級乾淨而且總是滿滿的。

Why is that? Well, because they don't just sit on the table all day.

為什麼會這樣？因為他們的員工每天不只是坐著。

They actually put those items on the table new for every guest.

他們為客人規律的將這些東西擺放在桌子上。

Number three, the waiters and waitresses, they aren't rude and there is just something wrong with this because Chinese restaurants have a reputation, not just in the US but around the world, for having really rude waitstaff.

第三，男女服務員，他們並不粗魯，這只是有問題，因為中餐館不僅在美國而且在世界各地都以服務員非常粗魯而聞名。

The kind of waitstaff that doesn't pay attention to you, the kind of waitstaff that makes you ask for things about three times.

那種不理你的服務員，那種讓你要東西問三遍左右的服務生。

Actually, they're so nice they'll go out of their way to explain how to eat the food here.

事實上，他們太好了，他們會不厭其煩地解釋怎麼吃這裡的食物。

They'll make the sauce at the table for you.

他們會在你的餐桌旁為你做調味汁。

And speaking of how to eat the food, they actually did that while we were shooting this video.

說到如何吃這些食物，他們其實在我們拍攝這段影片的時候教過。

Our waiter came over and explained the way you eat the xiao long bao is, you put it on your spoon, you nibble on it a little bit to let the steam out, you drink the soup, and you put some ginger on it.

我們的服務生走過來給我們解釋了小籠包的吃法，就是把小籠包放在湯匙上，輕輕咬一下，讓蒸氣散掉，喝湯，然後放點薑。

And by the way, you should've dipped in that sauce he made earlier and then down the hatch.

順便說一句，你應該先沾上他之前做的醬汁，然後再吃下去。

But I'm used to going to Chinese restaurants where I get my food and really wonder how I'm supposed to eat it.

但我習慣去中餐館，在那裡我吃東西，並且真的很想知道我該怎麼吃它。

Not only is the kitchen in Din Tai Fung open, it's actually on display.

鼎泰豐的廚房不僅是開放的，而且實際上是展示的。

You know, most Chinese restaurants, I think, by principle, hide their kitchen way back in the back that you can't see anything in there 'cause they don't want you to have any idea what's going on.

你知道，我認為，大多數中餐館原則上都將廚房隱藏在後面，你看不到裡面的任何東西，因為他們不想讓你知道發生了什麼。

But Din Tai Fung puts it right up at the front and actually makes a spectacle for you to look at, but really, isn't it more exciting to wonder what's going on back there?

但鼎泰豐把它放在前面，確實為你帶來了奇觀，但實際上，想知道後面發生了什麼不是更令人興奮嗎？

Number five, when the food does finally come to your table, it's not greasy or oily.

第五，當食物最終到達你的餐桌時，它不油膩或油膩。

You know, I think most Chinese restaurants have a requirement about how much grease and oil has to go into their food, but Din Tai Fung, after you eat it, it actually leaves you feeling fairly light and fairly fresh and not weighed down by a ton of oil and grease.

你知道，我想大多數中餐館對食物的油脂含量都有要求，但是鼎泰豐，你吃完之後，實際上讓你感覺很清淡，很新鮮，沒有沉重的負擔。大量的油和油脂。

And number six, Din Tai Fung is really consistent.

Every time you order it, the food comes out the same; it has almost no difference to what chef is in the back.

每次你點的食物都是一樣的； 這和後面的廚師是誰沒有什麼關聯。

Traditionally, Chinese restaurants, you go there and wanna order an item and they're like, "Oh, yeah, that chef that makes that item isn't here today, so, you'll have to come back tomorrow when they're actually working."

傳統上，在中餐館，你去那裡想要點菜，他們會說，「哦，是的，製作該菜的廚師今天不在這裡，所以，你必須明天他們上班再來。」

Number seven, the teacup and the teapots, they aren't chipped; actually, they're not even the traditional American Chinese restaurant teacup and teapots.

第七，茶杯和茶壺，它們沒有缺口； 事實上，它們甚至不是傳統的美式中餐廳茶杯和茶壺。

It's a unique teacup and the teapot, it's a whole thermal canister that keeps the tea really hot and warm the whole time you're eating there; so strange.

這是一個獨特的茶杯和茶壺，它是一個完整的保溫罐，可以讓你在用餐的整個過程中保持茶的熱度和溫暖； 這麼奇怪。

The eighth thing that's wrong with Din Tai Fung is the very orderly seating process.

鼎泰豐的第八個問題是入座過程非常有序。

Now, if you've been to, like, dim sum restaurants in Los Angeles, New York City, you'll know what I'm talking about.

現在，如果你去過洛杉磯、紐約市的飲茶餐廳，你就會知道我在說什麼。

The mob at the host or hostess desk, where they're calling numbers and shouting like crazy to get seated.

男主人或女主人辦公桌前的暴民，他們在那裡撥打號碼，瘋狂地喊叫著要求坐下。

At Din Tai Fung, people stand in line and you can actually make reservations on Yelp for many of their locations.

在鼎泰豐，人們排隊，實際上你可以在 Yelp 上預訂他們的許多分店。

Number nine, the restrooms at Din Tai Fung, they're actually clean.

第九，鼎泰豐的洗手間，其實很乾淨。

They actually clean them, not just once a day, but every 15 minutes.

他們其實不只是每天清潔一次，而是每 15 分鐘清潔一次。

And the last thing that's wrong with Din Tai Fung, when you get the bill, there's no fortune cookie.

鼎泰豐最後一個問題是，當你拿到帳單時，沒有幸運餅乾。

How am I gonna know whether to play the lottery tonight, whether I'm gonna win, and what my numbers are, you know?

我怎麼知道今晚是否玩彩票，我會中獎，以及我的號碼是多少，你知道嗎？

But what the bill does come with, it comes with a pen that actually works and isn't chained down.

但該法案確實附帶了一支真正可以使用且不受束縛的筆。

Hey, by the way, if you didn't pick it up through all of this, these things that are wrong, they're totally sarcastic; Din Tai Fung is really delicious.

嘿，順便說一句，如果你沒有從這一切中明白過來，這些問題，它們完全是諷刺； 鼎泰豐真的很好吃。

And you know what? I'm not saying that other Chinese restaurants aren't, too⏤those ones are great, too⏤but Din Tai Fung is really good.

你知道嗎？ 我並不是說其他中餐館也不是⏤那些也很棒⏤但是鼎泰豐真的很棒。

And, so, if you've never eaten here, you should check it out.

所以如果你還沒吃過，你應該去看看。

And, by the way, speaking of Taiwan, since this is a chain from Taiwan, if you've never seen my travel videos from Taiwan, well, you might wanna check them out.

順便說一下臺灣， 因為這是一家臺灣連鎖店， 如果你從來沒有看過我的臺灣旅遊影片，那麼你可能想看看。

Right here is a video all about Taiwanese night markets where you can see all about more tasty food in Taiwan.

這是一個關於臺灣夜市的影片，你會看到更多臺灣美食。

Well, as usual, I won't say goodbye, because I'm gonna go ahead and see you in this video.

像往常一樣，我不會說再見，因為我會在下一部影片見到你。
