A Bite of China 2 starts from food, ends with people
The roiling oil crackling in a pan; the roar made by a man squeezing juice from seeds; the vivid rabbit-shape desserts on a table; all of these come from extensively shooting source material. Since March of last year, the camera crew of more than 30 people went to some 60 different places around the country to shoot the series. And the air-time of the show had been delayed because of the complicated producing process.
The chief director pointed out that they look at people from the angle of food, but they do not end there.
"Food is our starting point, but not our finishing line. Our goal is to bring more understanding about Chinese people, through food."
The second season of "A Bite of China" spans eight episodes and will cover the stories of more than 150 people, and over 300 types of food. Whether you it is a cup of your tea, or your kind of flavor, you'll have to sample it yourself.
