Blondie in China brings her parents to Mengzi, Yunnan, for crossing-the-bridge rice noodles and local food. She explains the dish’s origin story as a legend about a scholar whose wife carried hot broth across a bridge. At a busy restaurant, she compares a set meal priced from 38 to 168 RMB with a local ordering option priced from 8 to 30 RMB depending on the number of ingredients. The family assembles ingredients in hot broth and tries a version with chrysanthemum petals. They then order from the local menu, choose four ingredients, select noodles and use the condiment bar. The creator also introduces caoya, a tender shoot she describes as mild, juicy and slightly sweet. Later, her mother browses local shops before the family tries rolled rice noodles with a dipping sauce made with mujiangzi, a citrusy local ingredient, plus a chilled jelly drink. They finish with Hani cuisine: spicy dipping-sauce chicken, barbecued pork belly, special local potatoes, edible lichen salad and baba, a glutinous-rice cake served with sugar. A Rosetta Stone promotional segment is omitted.
