Zhou Xiaohui (simplified Chinese: 周晓慧; traditional Chinese: 周曉慧), known professionally as Ms Yeah (Chinese: 小野), is a Chinese YouTuber and chef. In each video, a dish, usually Chinese, is prepared using tools found in a typical office workspace. Her videos are characterized by lack of narration, voiceover, or conversation, which helped to popularize the channel abroad.[3]
According to Ms Yeah, she works at a creative company, which allowed her and her coworkers to perform cooking in the office. Although the videos always have Ms Yeah as the main actor, the camera is primarily controlled by an unknown camera operator, while coworkers play bit parts.[3]
Most of the food cooked in the videos are common Chinese dishes and not difficult to prepare per se. Ms Yeah has admitted that the final results often did not taste good,[4] but the goal of her channel is not to teach viewers how to cook; hence there are no cooking instructions.[3] As Ms Yeah stated herself, "I don't want to be a 'cooking teacher'. I don't want to teach you how to cook, and I don't want to teach the science of cooking. I just want to show you an attitude towards life. You can find the joy of life whenever and wherever you are."
