The carrot, all the veg in there makes it hearty.
Mm.
And it's just amazing to see them pulling them in the back.
Next up, before going for perhaps
the best noodle dish in all of China,
the big plate chicken, and getting
an intro into making it in the kitchen,
we met up with local liangpi master, Mr. Sheng
for an intro and a taste
of one of Xi'an's most iconic pulled jelly noodle dishes.
(speaking in foreign language)
We are in the Hui district here.
It's all halal, Muslim Chinese street food,
and that's what we're doin' today.
There is variations of each dish
that we're having, you can get either Hui Chinese,
or Han Chinese, and today we're gonna get
all Hui Chinese street food.
All right, guys, so we are at a famous
liangpi joint here, and we're a little early.
Sheng Lao Ban, this nice gentleman here
is gonna come and meet us, and show us
how to make these famous liangpi,
and we're gonna try it out.
Let's go and try a liangpi.
So we're hangin' with Sheng Lao Ban here.
(speaking in foreign language)
- Okay?
(speaking in foreign language)
- Okay, awesome.
(speaking in foreign language)
Wow, that is legit.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh yeah, cold.
(speaking in foreign language)
Okay, so there's four simple ingredients here.
(speaking in foreign language)
Okay.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh, the secret sauce.
(speaking in foreign language)
28 secret ingredients in it.
Oh, beautiful.
(speaking in foreign language)
Okay, sesame paste.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh, wow.
That is beautiful.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh wow, look at how thick it is.
Tons of chili in there.
Wow (speaking in foreign language)
Look at that, wow.
(speaking in foreign language)
Right when I went to go taste my liangpi,
Boss Sheng reminded me
that with any liangpi, you have to
eat a roujiamo Chinese burger.
And here, served with beef, Xinjian halal style.
Oh.
(speaking in foreign language)
And we're gonna get that in a pita.
(speaking in foreign language)
I think I smell a bit of cumin in there.
Oh, it's so delicious.
- [Boss Sheng] You can try it.
- [Trevor] Oh, I can try it, really?
Oh!
- [Boss Sheng] Oh, yes! (laughs)
- [Trevor] Look at that!

- Oh, wow.
- This is Muslim food.
It's very good.
- Very good.
- Very good.
- Oh, it's so soft.
- Yes.
- Mm.
(speaking in foreign language)
So healthy.
And she is just heating up a moa bread.
This is Chinese pita.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh, okay.
So it's a spicy black bean sauce with all of that
beautiful stewed beef.
(speaking in foreign language)
Look at that thick sesame paste.
(speaking in foreign language)
Look at how pure that it.
That pure sesame paste.
All that chili oil, and then their secret stewed vinegar.
The we've also got the plum juice here.
Triple combo, triple joy.
And it's really thick.
This is what's unique.
All throughout Xi'an I've had quite a few
of these liangpi, but this one
really looks unique because of that stewed vinegar
and this ultra thick, ultra pasty looking sesame paste.
(slurping)
Oh wow.
Oh yeah.
That is just ultra aromatic
It really is about the chili oil, vinegar, sesame combo.
It's so thick.
That sesame paste is ultra thick.
It's the most refreshing and satisfying
and she-ang combo you'll ever have.
So there's two type of roujiamo in Xi'an.
This one is the beef, the Hui halal version,
and you can see on the bottom, there's a bit of that,
they put that bean sauce with chili,
and the pita itself.
Mm, looks nice and soft and fluffy.
Let's try it out.
Mm.
Mm.
Oh.
(speaking in foreign language)
Wow.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh, oh.
(speaking in foreign language)
(laughs)
For our final noodle dish, we're having
the king plate of noodles in China.
Originating from China's far west Xinjiang province,
the dapanji big chicken plate.
This is the most massive plate of fried chicken
and chilis and potatoes,
and all placed overtop of a huge bed of hand-pulled noodles.
Pure heaven.
All right, guys, next up to finish up the night,
we're gonna go for a classic Chinese dish,
the dapanji.
Wow, the big plate chicken.
Right up here there's a famous dapanji joint.
Oh it's gonna be good.
And it's got big, fat stretched noodles on the bottom.
Let's try it out.
And we're gonna go in the kitchen
and see how they make the big plate chicken.
Oh.
(speaking in foreign language)
Wow, beautiful.
You can really see the soul that's put into this.
(laughs)
Amazing.
Hand-pulled fat noodles going into
the big cauldron here, and that's gonna go
underneath the dapanji.
We've got like three woks going right now
of dapanji, oh.
And this is the soul for dapanji.
Wow.
That is amazing.
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh! (laughs)
(speaking in foreign language)
Oh and then we're putting the chicken in.
Oh, so there's chicken and I think,

Oh, there's a bit of daikon in there,
and ginger, and on the very bottom,
there's all of those fat, hand-pulled noodles.
(slurping)
Mm.
Wow.
That is insanely she-ang.
Look at all the sauce dripping down that noodle.
It's so nice and peppery.
It's very she-ang.
You've got that rich cinnamon star anise kick,
oh and the noodles, they give you
this soothing comfort feel.
(speaking in foreign language)
Whoa.
(speaking in foreign language)
That is just fantastic.
There's definitely a Sichuan peppercorn hit.
It's numbing, floral,
you can taste the ginger, you can taste the cinnamon.
Oh, and it is just the most heart-warming,
soothing, spicy plate of noodles you'll ever have.
And look, they're just bringin' out so many.
