My friend moved to Taiwan from sunny Los Angeles about 3 years ago. I went to visit her and it was so fun! Everything there was pretty inexpensive and the food was amazing! I stayed there for two weeks with my mom and brother in an air BnB. There were so many cute stores and it was so lively. It was so interesting how most people didn’t own cars because there are subways everywhere! I got so much stationary and we went all over Taiwan. We stayed up in the beautiful mountains in a breathtaking inn. We explored the city of Taipei and did all sorts of things in the suburban and rural areas. Omg I wanna go back so bad and see my friend! It was also crazy that we got to go to the original Din Tai Fung restaurant! Nowadays they have the restaurants all the way here in California! Geez it is a truly amazing place.

Joshua Price Australian do you think?

[@Gr33nDayPwn]

Yeah, that’s Aussie

[@himeakihiko]

I mean Taiwan is closer to Australia than it is USA or any European country so it kinda makes sense.

[@Hamythemuffinslayer1]

She's pronouncing her R's too prominently to be fully Aussie, I'd probably put it up to alot of time spent learning the language in America and also interacting with American tourists topped with a healthy smack Aussie to replace the majority of the accent. That being said, I can absolutely see her saying "so we went down to the bottle-o to get some goon in our thongs".

[@HCoRE8]

lol I get what you're saying

[@aristothethrone9032]

this has to be so rough on them. imagine tasting something life changing and knowing you can only get it in another country.

You can get soup dumplings (the $23 dumplings) elsewhere. They won't be as fancy tho.

There are authentic Chinese restaurants in the west, just rarer. Takes some time to find, though.

The last ones, you can get in California and Washington state.

[@southernarawak5699]

Joshua L. I always found that ironic. With as many Chinese in the USA as there are I always thought there would be only authentic Chinese style food sold in the USA. Imagine my surprise when I went to China and had them ask me "What the hell is General Tso's Chicken?" 😂

Do you think foods cheap because of how competitive it is? It really from an outsiders perspective feels like food is everywhere, so theres not much point eating at home.

Solidify your soup with gelatine and let it set then chop your soup jello into small pcs and mix it into your meat filling, the soup will melt once steamed. However your meat in the dumpling will release some meat juice too even if you don't add in soup jello
