Let's go We're going real fun the braised pork we're gonna stop by this little underground mall This is Taipei station for is everyone's masked up. I saw other youtubers here It's kind of cool like local towing youtubers. They're just sitting on the floor vlogging Kind of dirty. I wouldn't do that. This stuff is the best thing ever. It's just Taiwan sausage Oh, I want that I want to just reach through you know those magicians that can like reach into photos and just grab them I want to learn that sort of black magic. Oh I just walk anywhere. It'd be like I want the crap best skill It is you just find this in a random store stewed eggs and chicken and tofu Oh, that's how many sausage is so good so good. All right. I got I got some sausage and by the way You don't know it's me I don't recognize. I'm just kidding. I was wearing this mask like walking around Airports and people still came up to me.

You can never kiss anybody after you eat that though, but the sausage and raw garlic Magical combo Hmm I've got that signature smoky sweetness and a bit of kick as well Ain't nothing like it. I should do like a whole video on the station. I will not not like right now, but So much food in the station Wow I love my sin You know what I love about Taiwan. Here's the thing. It's so hard to film in Japan it really is because they go to supermarkets where Convenience stores or wherever they don't want you to film ever like in Taiwan. It's more welcoming I do feel it look at this little dimsums the station makes me wish I was getting on a high-speed train Go somewhere. There's Tony's croissant. Holy crap ginseng. Yeah, oh It's just like a good stuffed pretzel wonder which one's the best it is Wow Like a super crusty croissant you guys know the bolo ball the pineapple cake which by the way has no pineapples in there It's just like a sugar layered Bread this is kind of like what that is. It's like a pineapple croissant also look I'm a croissant demon I'm stupid. I'm sorry Oh, it's so dense this is this is called taking a croissant bowl by the horns Make sure you get some tea with this okay, I mean it's crusty and flaky And the top probably is the best thing the crust is probably the best thing dang this thing is thick You could cuddle it Give it kisses every morning Send it Valentine cards every single day. It still wouldn't know that you love it That's how thick it is That's good. Let's get some teeth. I ate this with my sausage my juicy juicy sausage. Oh, so this floor is all restaurants and stuff Look at this soup dumpling and this is this is the yo-yo man. This is my favorite BamBam noodles Huh? He doesn't look happy making the noodles. I just gotta say It doesn't really look like he's enjoying himself. I've never seen so many flavors of shrimp chips in my life All shrimp chips wine chicken Well, that's great. Actually.

Oh, she looks good All right besides the Snorlax soda got some of the way which is like soy sauce Raised chicken wings. It's a little duck tongue. Look if you never had this, it's just quack. Okay Snorlax is It tastes Lazy like it tastes like snorlax is just underwhelming lacking in excitement this tastes like it's Not that sweet it's just like diluted sparkling water with some great flavor I mean, I think it's good because it probably doesn't have a lot of sugar in here. That's good How I'm away so famous the poor the braised meats There's like umami overload in one of these things Whatever they look could be chicken tofu eggs Awesome. Definitely. We're in Taiwan. You gotta try one of those this is a duck tongue Not a nice little crunch to it There's definitely a mall you want to go through if you smell like walk around try all sorts of different foods Right here after you eat your chicken wing, whatever you got that nice oil on your hands, you know, just Massage you a little bit It's a new sort of cologne and it's great for your skin. Your skin is all glistening It smells like chicken My favorite place for pork over rice Jingfeng real fun. Oh Yeah, baby. Oh huge line All right, it's lunchtime this place is so packed right now Gotta get the braised pork over rice and gotta get a soup. My heart is pounding right now Oh, this is so bloody amazing Like you can see the fat rendering on the hot rice and then the fat pieces of the meat just dissipate And it melts and attaches itself to every single grain of rice like this just freaking amazingly delicious glistening glaze And the rice just transforms into something just completely majestic Every single bite Make sure you get the soy sauce braised egg This is the ribs One of the best soups you can find anywhere taste all the bones on stuff's been simmering for all day in that thick thick broth This way, you know, you're back in Taiwan like when I eat something like this So I know even better take a bite of pork belly Chase it with some of the rice In Taiwan really doesn't get much better than that That's so iconic Local Taiwanese food. This thing is so porky and meaty. I had to get some greens to kind of balance it out Nice poor fatty pork. This is where I want to go. My favorite tea shop in Taipei. Xinhua tea you come in here They make the tea for you hang out relax, especially when eating something fatty don't drink soda It's gonna congeal that's food's gonna congeal the fat's gonna congeal in your stomach. You gotta drink some tea for the tea shop I just thought of something I'm gonna drink tea after eating stuff that what that is oily might as well add one more thing to that list My favorite scallion pancakes in Taipei right here. You can add an egg. You can add a ham Glorious Glorious. Oh Yeah, baby Look at that eggs and basils inside this fluffy layered Pancake unbelievable. There's so many layers. One of the best pancakes you can find in Taiwan Eggs and basil now I'm ready for tea. This place you can just come in and try any tea you want They grow their own tea. They roast their own tea And you can just chill with them and just they'll teach you about tea Smelling cup. Mmm floral scent and then and the flavor changes I didn't start appreciating tea until many years ago. No, I love it We're at the yen restaurant here in W Hotel. I ain't here before actually jellyfish. I love jellyfish. As long as it's not stinging me, put a little vinegar on it a little garlic put that thing in my mouth So crunchy. Oh our duck is here So we're getting our duck prepared two ways It's gonna be stir-fried and also of course is wrapped There's a regular wrap and then there's also a spinach wrap and they wrap every one of these for like this is a lot of work She doesn't need to do all that. That's like a lot of duck to be wrapped One of my favorite things in the world I love the wrapper. Got a great chew to it. This is a spinach one the skin It just melts in your mouth this one Mmm, I feel like it's good, but it was like the ratio of duck to wrap I wish it was more duck in my wrap. You can taste more of the duck skin But the way they wrap it is obviously more intricate and beautiful But I would have just like stuffed it with duck because like more skin more flavor, you know more fat more juice I would have liked that more. Dumped a couple pieces of extra duck skin and meat in here Now it feels more complete. Also a piece of cheese in here Peking duck with cheese It's a cheesy duck. I think it tastes pretty good. A little creamy cheese Compounds the nice Sweet flavor of the meat. I like it. This is actually the very Beijing way to eat this Awesome This duck's actually really more really well made My skin is like Unbelievably crispy. So the second way of cooking is they stir-fry the duck meat with some scallions and chilies That looks really really good. I'm gonna wrap it as well That's awesome. Anything touched by a scallion just automatically becomes better. I Love this little homemade crepe. This place is really nice. I was actually here about a Two years ago. I stayed here for a few days and I had dim sum here Actually one of the best dim sums I've had in Asia But from the service to the food quality, really really nice. Hey, good morning today. It's gonna go rummage around. Oh This is a place that's like it's like really really hopping at night Daytime is a lot of little shops fun games crowds. This is a good place to just do some shopping There's a lot of little restaurants around here a lot of it's like I would say the hip trendy section of Taipei Okay, I got my hip trendy sweatshirt Yeah, I'm a hot pothead Fitting right in. Bubble tea chocolate balls That's cool Bye-bye, boba chocolate Boba tea candy. Oh, this is Taiwan when you get all sorts of this stuff. Oh, they gave me one to try Mmm, this tastes like a tapioca ball with chocolate. This is definitely in the land of boba. Boba everything. Alright, KFC See what's inside. Whoa cloud egg tart Nong's nong chou cocoa. What the heck is this? Chicken all droopy with sauce and cheese and basil This is definitely 100% Not as good as it looks. I mean It's spicy But it's really greasy I mean, I know it's fried chicken, but It's kind of overly greasy. Oh, I know what I'm tasting. That's why it's so greasy It's the peanut butter on this that's making it like super heavy I think it's a little overload. If you're gonna come here and eat this Bring a pillow with you because you're gonna be napping as soon as you take like three bites like drop right here Nap for two hours wake up Finish the chicken. Corn soup So healthy This is actually good. Corn is nice and crispy pretty sweet little chunks of potatoes in there But this is really interesting. Check this out. I see these little sweet potato balls you'll find these in every single Taiwanese night market, but I've never seen a KFC before Get it Those balls are good. See the ones in night markets are empty balls, but here they got a little yam filling Attack of the yam monster. It's crispy on the outside nice and puffy Really delicious creamy yam. That's a winner Gotta give it to KFC in their desserts. The egg tart in KFC I told you guys when I was in Korea. Best egg tart I had in a long time was in KFC in Korea It's pretty good in Taiwan. I don't think it's as good as the Korean egg tart, but still pretty darn good. This is so pretty it's like Kind of looks like a bird nest where the bird drops something they can plump on it But it's just a marshmallow. I think a marshmallow in an egg tart Whoa Okay, it's a marshmallow. I just realized I look like a Chocolate geisha It's a marshmallow covered in chocolate Sitting on an egg tart with chocolate filling on the bottom of the egg tart. The crust is nice and fluffy Tart is delicious. I gotta give it up for my man D'Carno. I mean the man is good at chicken But he's coming next level when it comes to dessert Here we are, Danshui. Last time I was here it was raining and cold It's a really pretty spot Like it's kind of like the outskirts of Taipei And they got their own like unique food items here, but one of them Let's get that Some really, it's like a carnival-y type of place there's like beautiful waters and these kind of food, so this is a Pig's blood cake. It's like massive. I feel like it should be something I stick it out of my mouth It's really kind of not my thing You can't really taste the blood, but it's like a chewy rice cake Freshly fried mushrooms. It's really good Get the mushrooms out of here All right, so this is the old street in Danshui. This is where all like the shops are, the restaurants, a lot of food I'm gonna come back and do like a like a full on video on this. There's tons of little eats around here This is like the famous Metal eggs that they make here in Danshui. It's like basically like soy braised Compressed eggs. It's got a unique flavor
