In this episode of Luke Nguyen’s Greater Mekong, Luke discovers the unique flavours and culinary traditions of the Bai and Yai people in the historic towns of Dali and Shaxi, in China’s Yunnan Province. In Dali, Luke creates a textural with the Zhao family’s rice noodle, and has the best fishing experience of his life with the help of specially trained cormorant birds. Travelling further north, Shaxi locals charm Luke at their bustling town market, and a village elder proffers tips on how to cook his best loved banquet dish.
