7 MUST EATS in TAIWAN! Michelin Guide Night Market & Bib Gourmand Food (Taipei Travel Vlog!)

[@heythave]

I really appreciate you being yourself, Janice. Your personality and passion comes out in each video. In other videos, I always see a person with a ton of makeup on and their faces look just perfect with hair well coiffed.

[@toni-kaku]

Well done for not joining the 2 hour queue. The alternative place looked amazing 😍

[@roamingwesty]

The alternate is also 24-hrs in service. Having been away for 30 some years, every time I visited Taipei this was a first-day stop. Real slice of Taipei life, tasty beyond expectation.

[@edcelreyes572]

manifesting one day i’d get to travel taipei to eat all their delish food! gosh i love their cuisine so much 🥹

[@_wuster]

I love the braised pork rice, favourite dish in Taiwan 🤤

[@JaniceFung]

It was incredible ☺️

[@2112Liz]

Agreed. I had it nearly everyday I was there. Their lunch box (in mandarin “Pien Tang”) is so great.A local relative took us to what looked to be a very humble local restaurant non-Michelin but well known for locals in Tai Chung for their braised pork belly. It came in one big piece around 7-8cm tied with some strings. They didn’t even bother to cut it smaller, but goshhh…..that was the best pork belly I ever had in my life. Legend said, it was cooked for hours and hours to get the fat out but yet not losing the fatty taste and marinated them with some chinese herbs. It sounds impossible but it is indeed possible. Fatty but healthy 😀Taiwanese know how to cook pork so well PS. That place sold out their pork belly in just 2-3hr. You’ve got to wait approx. an hour or more before the new batch came

[@heythave]

I’m heading to Taichung in December (2024). Please give name and address of this place. Thank you.

[@cdnsilverdaddy]

foreigners prefer the bacon basil egg pancake... trust me, it is so good

[@phieulonguyen]

Thank you for including the places in the description. I’m heading to Taiwan in January and it absolutely scares me to death as a foreigner not knowing where to go for good food, so thank you!!!

[@heythave]

Ah, just watch a few videos on Taipei street food and you’re good to go. I will be there next December and have found this very useful.

[@cameronscharnberg9172]

I'm travelling to Taipei in May and got a heap of tips from this video. Cheers for sharing, love your content

watching this while eating dinner and living vicariously through you

[@JaniceFung]

ahah what were you eating?

[@jops1004]

@@JaniceFung tomato pasta, not as exciting as what you were eating 🥲

[@nowgettheretravel]

I don't queue for food either. It seems normal in places like Singapore, Tokyo, Taiwan to queue up for the most famous food place but you can walk around the corner and get same food with no queue.

[@juliag8100]

I had the pepper buns when I was there in September. We got them fresh from the oven. They were so good!

[@JaniceFung]

I went back to Raohe again just for the buns!

[@syc008]

It all looks so good, I miss Taiwan. I want to visit again.

[@irena-talita]

What a great video on your fav foods in Taiwan..The food is DELICIOUS..I loved the braised pork and rice and the pepper bun they both looked so good ..I can’t wait for the next video Janice ..x❤️🥰💗

[@skYt9139]

Watching a lot of videos about Taiwan particularly Taipei for my short trip soon. Like you, seeing the food makes me so happy. And I am very excited to eat these food! They look so delicious and comforting!

[@JaniceFung]

Have fun in Taipei!!

[@sallyyim4427]

Hi Janice! I'm glad to see you're putting out videos more regularly. Love your content and really hate the long pause between videos.

[@ultimobile]

yeah beef noodles are probably our first go-to dish when we go to Taiwan

[@RedAndtheBlackRocker]

Two hours is a long wait! I wanted to try a highly recommended udon restaurant in Tokyo and they had a great system where you get a ticket at a kiosk in front and you can leave and come back, all the while tracking your number on a website on your phone, so you're not glued for hours in front. It actually took about 3 hours and I was one of the last people in line when I went back, as the cutoff was reached shortly after I got my ticket. It was worth it!

[@AlusW.]

We have similar palates and your food choices are xlnt! You are so humble and sweet. On to 100 subs!! You're the best!! 🤗❤️😋👍👍

[@tvtommy7268]

Well done! Taipei was my home for 3 wonderful years…..your vid made me homesick!

food here is amazing! and almost everyone i've encountered here have ben so kind

[@peterc5318]

Hi Janice, you oretty much cover the best foods in Taiwan 😂😍👍 My personal favourites are beef noodle & I do add chilli oil & pickles 😂 Oven Bread Braised pork rice yummy Jao Tiu ( bread dough) Soup dumplings 😄

This was our food bible while we were in Taipei. Thank you so much for the map links and for the easy cut/paste xiao long bao menu!!!

Just got back from taiwan and the Tangyuan was soo good that we went back to Raohe just for that!

I know right! I went back to Raohe again for the pepper buns haha

Awesome!!! Will be there next week !!

[@kwonglie214]

❤ Perfect. Agree with you. Next month visit Taiwan. From Boise Idaho usa

[@cdnsilverdaddy]

to be honest, fu huang is so-so but for us, the better ones are from the south where we often stay (family) and the mom and pop/family run ones are more flavourful

[@BrianaisGoingPlaces]

Can't wait to go to Taipei and try some of these! I'm definitely with you on the not waiting two hours for food. That is 2222 LONG!

[@marcusoconner2805]

Wow. I love Taiwanese food so so much! 🥰🥰🥰

[@kiyoshitakeda452]

Really nice vlog on Taipei "must eats". Enjoy the contrast in food styles from H.K. to Taipei. Underscores the variety of Chinese cuisine. My favorite in your video was the Xiaolongbao (小笼包) and the soymilk with Youtiao. Thanks for the vlog.

[@josephohanlon205]

Janice, I'm glad you did this Taiwan food tour. Short, but managed 7 spots. I wouldn't wait 2 hours for that soy milk breakfast either

[@chrischou6488]

Great video Janice! With the Michelin Star, Fu Hang gets a lot of hype, so the line up is crazy!! Their signature thick bread is something not everyone makes, so it is worth a try if you can get up early to avoid the line. I'd only go when I'm jet-lagged and is up at 5-6am. The Yong He Soy Milk King was my neighborhood joint growing up, and honestly, there are a few other similar breakfast joints, they are all very very good. Trust me, you didn't miss much when you decided to get out of that 2-hour line.

[@tonyeatsintaiwan7047]

Soup dumplings are really delicious!

[@sharonsu9773]

Your choice of breakfast shop is 永和豆漿大王👍😋. 捷運大安站 No. 102 , Sec. 2, Fuxing S Rd, Da’an District, Taipei ( check opening time !)

[@JaniceFung]

the pork was incredible!

[@regim6416]

I think that it's hard to taste the differce between the popular and very good spots that are less crowded. I was in Taiwan in july. Very hot. So many places to eat.

has anyone been to Fu Hang Soy Milk?? was the soy milk out of this worldddd and worth the 2 hour wait? 🤯 *edit* - I've added google map links to all the locations!

[@Stock12345]

Nope, never been there. I'm sure other place do as good

[@teutons87]

Personally didn't feel it was worth the wait tbh. Quite overrated for those exposed to soy milk. Still worth a try for those who never had soymilk before though.

[@christianmarchant928]

@janice next to the braised pork rice place at the start is the most amazing pork belly bao. Don’t let the purported wait times at Fu Huang scare you. It moves so fast that you’ll only be in line for 30 mins at most. It’s worth going to once, I wouldn’t rush back unless I was taking somebody new. The soy milk is amazing, food is ordinary breakfast. Best breakfast I had was up in the mountains near sunmoon lake

[@kydkidd]

The price of ordinary food is so cheap there, you can't find anything equivalent in Sydney with similar price. A very bad tasting noodle soup will cost about 15+ AUD now.
