I just want to start by getting back to New Zealand, so missed our planned trip there last year

[@Jinjinwellingtonnz]

Taiwan has great food. All their hotels 1 star to 5 stars provide great breakfast buffets. The town of Jiu Fen has a very interesting market town, and Taiwan has great variety of seafood, and interesting night markets.

[@tavita8699]

Yum Yum Yum...Mouth watering my favourite chinese regional food. I love won ton tong but mostly I enjoy with char siew. Auckland has some amazing cantonese outlets that rival hongkong. Great vlog...Just bought AUD$80 of char siew to enjoy in the next few weeks. Tonight Glass noodles with King prawn and char siew fried noodles with selected vegies. Cant wait... I'm disabled so I can not join any trips in the future. If I was able to my choice would 100% have been Japan of which I speak Japanese but thats a dream that just won't happen. Interesting idea

[@ChasingaPlate]

Good work on the char siew Tavita! 😍 that’ll keep you going for a bit! Dinner sounded great 😄 we’re so lucky here in Auckland with the number of Cantonese restaurants- so spoilt. Hope there is enough interest in a group trip- not sure if people are even thinking about travel at the moment so it’s a great way to get a gauge. If it happens we’ll make sure to film a bit of it so people who can’t come with can feel a part of it 😄 We’d love to get to Japan too 😍 Thanks for watching this one mate, hope you’re having a great weekend! Cheers, Sheena

[@thomaskwok1531]

The ( 油炸鬼）looks much better than in Hong Kong ..... And the wonton and roast duck noodles also good . Both are the " Elite " . Lucky they move to NZ so you guys can taste those good food 👍🏼

@@ChasingaPlate venezuela!!! 🤣. we received with opens arms all Cantonese from China and HK in the middle 60’s searching for a better life, that’s why for so many ppl (me been Latino) it’s weird when I’m ask “what i miss the most from my country” I answer Cantonese food , because there is no equal, the sweet and sour sauce with pineapple syrup base OMG .

[@ChasingaPlate]

Omg Venezuela was not was I was expecting 😆 that is so awesome!!! 😍 I hear ya mate- classic sweet and sour can’t be beat! Golden Garden where we filmed in our first Cantonese video is really great too! Their sweet and sour pork is pretty damn yum! 🤤

[@ChasingaPlate]

🤗🤗🤗 we will DEFINITELY be including Maori and Island spots mate- we need to do some on the ground research before we film 😄 Stay tuned! Thanks for watching and commenting GiNuk! Cheers, Sheena

[@trellgold6998]

There's f all places that do good Maori food the only thing I can think of is hangi and boil up (boil up is tasteless but I guess its just cause it's what Maoris grew up with which is why we like it). Island food you guys have to go to tanz kitchen in Otara and get the night market steak plate its cheap big portion and you won't be disappointed!!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Yea it’s thin on the ground when it comes to Maori food eh Trell Gold. We filmed an epic hangi and boil up in Hastings recently though. I love boil up- it reminds me of a Chinese soup my grandma used to make loaded with pork bones 🤤 Thanks so much for the recommendation- popping Tanz Kitchen on the list to check out 😍🤤 Cheers, Sheena

[@jbrown8059]

Island and maori food are home made food they can come to your place and film you cooking lol

[@weblizardlimited172]

What are those dishes? I can think only about hangi. Rest is illegal now.

As a Chinese, I have lived in Auckland for 11 years. I think the best fried breadstick is sold in Chef Gao's Homemade Cuisine which is located in East tamaki. The fried breadstick store which showed in this video, its name is Silverlake. Although Silverlake has opened in Sandringham for many years, not many Chinese will go there to buy fried breadstick. Maybe, people only know Silverlake as a takeaway store, but not a breakfast store. Hahaha...

[@ChasingaPlate]

That’s awesome mate! Have you had their stinky tofu before? 🤤 Yea, Silverlake is more of a grab and run spot and they supply loads of Chinese supermarkets with their donuts. We want to try their congee next time! Thanks for watching and commenting- will check out Chef Gao’s soon 😄 Cheers, Sheena

I would like to goto a Dim Sum Restaurant and checkout the kitchen of a Dim Sum Restaurant.

Thanks for watching mate. We were lucky enough to do that. Check out the video here kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZ62p3-VZpV5Zqs Thanks!

After watching your videos it makes me want to visit NZ again. Haven't been there in awhile but after this virus gets sorted out would love to have a look there and see what's changed.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hope you can get over here once the world opens up again! When were you last here sandy shore? 😍 Hope our NZ series brings back happy memories of your last trip here! Thanks for watching and commenting. Cheers, Sheena

@@ChasingaPlate i went to NZ about 15 years ago and was very impressed by the beautiful countryside and friendly people.

Hi, just curious about Sheena ; since the fact hearing her speaking Cantonese in this vid. Were you/your fam's roots originally from China/Malaysia/HK/SG or elsewise?

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Ben! Both my parents are from HK 😄 My maiden name is Lau too! Hope you enjoyed this video 🙌 Cheers, Sheena

The Ox Tongue shape of the fry bread go well with the soy milk, but the savory fry bread stick I would prefer to have it dip in with congee/porridge. Auckland Cantonese Noodle Restaurant gave Thomas decent amount of Roast Duck in the Wonton Noodle Soup. Where I live most places only get half or less of what he got. Singapore Rice Noodles & Yang Chow Fried Rice are similar since both have BBQ Pork, Shrimp, & Fried Eggs. As for the conclusion of this video, I couldn't think of any better places to eat since they know more but I wish they can get together with other food channel crews like Mark Wien, Trevor James, and among others for the group video as soon as this pandemic is over.

[@drizzt167]

Omg, 'wok hei' yangchow fried rice is showcased. Lol. Beware of uncle roger coming to New Zealand. Have fun. Come to singapore and malaysia (Indonesia, philippines, thailand, etc) for south east asia is a hotpot of varieties of cuisine. Cheers mate from singapore.

Hi Sheena and Thomas just an update on covid in Victoria Australia , we are covid free and I had my first shot today and the second on June 16 and then i'am ready to fly , first stop probably you guys in NZ and Mr Steve , a Bali devotee ( he is a bit north of Auckland ) I 'am happy to travel anywhere . I haven't done anything yet about your Thailand trip until we have some unrestricted travel around the Asian area plus getting our covid shots . The Aust. and NZ. governments are supposed to have unrestricted travel between you and me with no quarantine, lets wait and see , cheers Alister in Australia .

[@ChasingaPlate]

You must be glad you’ve had that first jab mate! I reckon that unrestricted travel will start up soon! 3 spots left on the Thailand trip so get in quick 🤗 Cheers, Sheena

[@brilliantbutblue]

21k views like WHHHATTT. Well done guys thats a big big step up from earlier NZ vids👍👏, always so proud of you both. I had no idea Singapore Noodles is a Hong Kong dish, those beans and fried rice had to be my favorite stop this time. Congratulations on the first step to a group tour launch. 🤞🤞

Cantonese roast duck is one of my favourite foods. I tried to roast one myself, once, to see if I could carve some boneless pieces - a bit like a chicken. No such luck. The cleaved pieces seem to be the best. You just have to work around some bones for the deliciousness.

[@ChasingaPlate]

Thanks for watching! Did you roast it Chinese style? We’ve only cooked a whole duck once ourselves. It was a wild duck (got it from hunting) and we cooked it in more of a French style with orange. Came up pretty well. Thanks heaps for watching this one. Cheers, Thomas 😀

[@tosht2515]

Interesting survey. Based on locations being so specific I assumed they were scheduled TrovaTrip destinations. Looked up. Yup. I realize listing so many diverse locations and activities helps TrovaTrip secure new travelers but seems like it would be a challenge for Chasing a Plate to gain any real understanding of where subscribers would want to visit. There’s a potential 20 people will fill out surveys and select 20 different destinations (again due to so many options). *That said,* looks like there are no upcoming Food Adventures. Here’s hoping you two can become their traveling food experts!

[@ChasingaPlate]

Hi Tosh, yea it’s a very spread out range of destinations as it needs to cover the breadth of creators that they work with. But we’re already getting a great gauge as obviously our subscribers are food focused and are picking destinations that have strong food cultures. Thailand and Vietnam are coming out on top at the mo! Thanks for watching this one Tosh. Cheers, Sheena

[@tosht2515]

Very cool. As I was scanning the survey and thinking of you two I thought travelers would greatly benefit from your vast knowledge of Malaysia, Mexico and India. *You guys know those cuisines inside and out!* And yes I recall you mentioning you’ve visited Thailand like 20 times! Again, crossing fingers this works out!

[@ChasingaPlate]

@@tosht2515 definitely some of the places we’ve spent the most time in over the past few years! Hopefully this isn’t the first and last trip we ever do- would love to travel with a CAP group to Mexico especially!
