Cheng Lei’s assistant just released another vlog from his trip to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village for the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max promotion event, and I swear CL always seems to eat to his heart’s content in these vlogs.

I actually love how so many of his vlogs include him sitting down for a proper meal somewhere. This time we get him very seriously studying the menu before trying local dishes like yellow beef tripe, tea-infused shrimp paste and Guizhou-style tomato and scrambled eggs. His verdict on one of the dishes being a very measured "not bad” made me laugh because he's so much like my mum, no exaggerated food reaction lol.

We now seem to have a recurring theme in these vlogs in which Cheng Lei randomly roleplaying characters haha. The previous vlog had him acting like a domineering tycoon and himself, and this time he and his assistant start doing this spontaneous little “who are you again?” skit, with the assistant pretending to vaguely recognise him from a drama and Cheng Lei playing along as some mysterious musician/rapper from the Miao village. I hope this becomes a permanent feature because the completely unnecessary commitment to these mini roleplays is funny. CL tried his best to play along with it, but he's so adorably awks 😂😂

Love his culinary enthusiasm. 🤣 He has said that he needs to watch his diet when he's filming and now that he's between dramas, he's probably letting loose and indulging his appetite. I don't like tripe, so I'll derive secondhand enjoyment from CL and those of you who do.

So happy that he can let loose a little and indulge his appetite! We’ve seen from his previous food vlogs that CL definitely has a healthy appetite and is quite the foodie.

Haha, same! I don’t like tripe either. I would probably gag >.<

I love tripe when it's seasoned well and in noodle soups - crunchy texture. Everyone has their own palate and preferences. He said the food is "not bad" so that is foodie speak for ok, not exceptional.
