Lijiang, China (1x3)

Date de diffusion: Mar 08, 2012

In the third episode of Luke Nguyen’s Greater Mekong, Luke reaches the fabled town of Lijiang in China’s Yunnan Province, where the nightlife reigns and a Naxi "aunty" teaches Luke how to cook a local speciality. In Lijiang’s labyrinthine backstreets, Luke cooks a Chinese classic – Thousand Layer Pork. He gains insight into the long history of Naxi culture at the Black Dragon pool, and is taught by "aunty" how to make Baba the traditional way. Amid curious marketplace spectators, Luke catches a fish with his bare-hands and puts his skills to the test, cooking local-style barbecued carp for the first time.
