I love a Sabrina takeover! All those foods looked awesome. The glutinous rice triangle seems like it would be pretty heavy, but the dumplings looked like a perfect breakfast. The park you chose is gorgeous, and a perfect setting for an al fresco feast. Great video!

Welcome to my hometown!That boss who was making rice dumpling in 1:50 saying that I'm on the international stage(Because you recorded and uploaded on youtube ), HaHa!Enjoy your trip and food in Chaiyi

[@kkz201]

thanks sabrina! this is one of my favourite festival foods! my grandmother made the best zhongzi packed with ingredients: pork, duck yolk, cured sausage, dried shrimp, mung beans.....i always think of her during this and many other seasonal festivals

[@chopsticktravel]

I bet homemade zhongzi is better than store-bought. That sounds delicious! :)

[@Generationxcreate]

You 2 sound alike :) Good video~

[@bgishy]

Sabrina I adore you! Your voice is amazing! I’m so glad you are doing more of these videos in front of the camera rather than behind it!

[@jaimecastillo6789]

Amazing food looks so good delicious

[@susanchang7825]

OMG, I love cold noodles. I miss eating the cold noodles with peanut and sesame sauce from Pingdong. Hard to find that flavor in the US.

[@AromaticBeauty]

Yum! You and Luke sound so similar haha. Can't wait to go back in October. Have you guys ever thought about doing a food tour? I'd definitely book in 😁

[@beverlyann2109]

Simply the best 👍👌👏

[@PlayGame-hg7tg]

Great food great video

[@shiz0726]

How funny, I'm just wondering if you guys will do something holiday special, and then here it is .Way to go lady!

[@chopsticktravel]

Thank you!

[@jimmitheflowerhornandfrien1547]

Amazing video! I love when you do videos. Keep up the great work Sabrina! Did Luke try any of it? The rice thing looked so good. I never had anything like that 😞

[@chopsticktravel]

Thanks Kimberly! I bought a few of everything and brought them back so Luke could try them too! Hopefully you can find some to try someday :)

[@bb7147]

Thank you like taiwan

[@tonychen1062]

Nice video you’d made. In fact, we don’t like English using people almost called every our food with dumpling this or dumpling that. The history of “rice dumpling” itself is over 2000 year and it is still very popular that is why you guys should call it “粽子“ more often it deserve been called it’s real name from everyone like “小籠包“。 So I do appreciate your girl friend’d called it “粽子” while she ate it in the park. Keep sharing more nice food video to everyone. 👍

[@candice1990chiuhung]

Love your vid❤️

[@chopsticktravel]

Thank you very much Candice :)

[@shalon4jc2]

Like watching you too Sabrina 😍so are you two going to get married soon? 😋😋😋 Thanks again for video

[@ryanr8121]

That is chestnut that they put in the zhongzi. I'm watching these videos because I'm going to go around the island when I'm there in November.. Can't wait. 😁

[@chopsticktravel]

Thank you for the info! Hope you have an awesome trip and eat lots of food! Will you go to Chiayi as well?

[@ryanr8121]

Luke Martin RAW I would like to. I plan on hitting up the spots I didn't go to last time I was there.... Chiayi, kaohsiung, Taichung, Donggang Island where they have the boat burning festival, back to Tainan, possibly hualien and if time permits, kinmen Island.

[@ryanr8121]

Luke Martin RAW oh.. And of course, I have to stay in Taipei for a little while to visit my family that I only see every few years.

[@vincents5869]

Missed Chiayi, my childhood memory. Do not miss the mosquitoes though

[@jameslee2949]

Awesome

[@chopsticktravel]

Thanks James!

[@craigbetts1586]

[@hsiangting88]

nice video !

[@jonathanenkvistolivares5166]

More videos like this!

[@jacintawong3639]

Hi Sabrina , good job for research the story of chungzi ( rice dumpling ). I have been told from my school teacher almost the same story but not fish, is dragon. That how the dragon boat festival came and eating chungzi. your chungzi look amazing. yes many different sty and different ingredients. I make the malaysian sty. Ymmmmm. well done lady, 2 thumps up

[@chopsticktravel]

Very cool story! What is the malaysian style like?

[@jacintawong3639]

Malaysian sty are packed of many ingredients. we used Chinese dried mushroom, pork , peanuts ( cured ), Chinese sausage, chestnuts, dried shrimp, duck egg yolk, garlic, red onion, salt, white pepper, five spice and sticky rice. we don't use mung bean.Everyone got their own cooking method of making zhongzi. They all delicious because a lot of work for wrapped and cook for 3.5 hrs in a big pot of boiling water. At the end the hard work pay off and it so delicious.

[@mendozaarnold7244]

So amazing

[@chopsticktravel]

Thanks Mendoza! Hope you enjoyed the video!

[@RAiDERETTE5150]

Noodles look amazing.

[@chopsticktravel]

Really good for cooling off! Thanks for watching

[@RAiDERETTE5150]

Luke Martin RAW no need to thank me. Keep up the amazing videos. I work as a behavioral therapist for children with autism. Watch your videos give me a vacation i cant take. 💛

[@pramvadee1]

hello the food look so good

[@chopsticktravel]

Glad you thought so too! Thanks for watching

[@dyingearth]

For the first item, you could try using a sweet and spicy sauce.

[@luminair123]

yum

[@chopsticktravel]

Thanks for watching!

[@lilchina1]

Flying Solo by Sabrina ❤️ it! Question:Did your learn Mandarin or Taiwanese or a little of both? I heard Luke speak some Mandarin in other videos so I was just wondering what you learned.

[@chopsticktravel]

Hahaha yup, solo food mission! I can speak just enough mandarin to get by, but my listening is a little better than my tones. For Taiwanese, all I know is hello and delicious hahaha!

[@不放人不改名]

Taiwanese is just called MinnanChinese accent

[@sptoo123]

Rice dumplings will taste better if you dip some sweet soy sauce or sweet chili sauce. Also there might be some different cooking method of making a rice dumpling in Northern Taiwan and Southern Taiwan. In Southern Taiwan, as your video, people put raw material into bamboo leaf and sink the rice dumpling in hot water for hours to cook, but in Northern Taiwan, people will fried the materials with some ginger and soy sauce to highlight the aroma, also the rice will be cooked and well seasoned before putting into bamboo leaf.

[@chopsticktravel]

I will definitely have to try some in the north and compare the flavors. I brought some home and added spicy chili sauce which was fantastic!

[@sptoo123]

Hey, I just found "I'm Jonas" Channel has put a new video which he went to TWO rice dumpling stores in Taipei and both stores have variety kinds of rice dumpling more than just Northern/Southern kind. That may be a good place to go next time you go to Taipei and wanna have some good rice dumpling.

[@sptoo123]

Also I recommend that you try some Hakka style ban-zong (ban pronounce like Banqiao's Ban, zong is rice dumpling in Chinese). It's quite different from all kind of rice dumpling because its more like salty mochi with lots of Hakka dried radish inside. And don' forget to try some 冰粽 bing-zong. 冰粽 can be found in some bakery and it's kind of sweet dessert version of rice dumpling.

[@sptoo123]

It's me again, Haha. I wanna tell you that you can come visit Neiwan in Hsinchu and have some 野薑花粽 which is Wild ginger flower rice dumpling. This is a famous local food in Neiwan. Neiwan is famous for fireflies sightseeing. Every year people come to Neiwan between spring and summer for the beautiful fireflies here.

[@chweehar]

Those were chestnuts in the sticky rice dumpling.

[@mintysingularity]

Sabrina, another great takeover! Now I'm hungry. 🤤 FYI, the jongzi leaves are not banana but bamboo. Thx ❤️

[@chopsticktravel]

Hey Travin, whoops! Thanks for the info and thank you for watching!

[@keyenify01]

You should try in Philippines too. 😊

[@balares]

this "nut" looked like a dried fig, really like the video though, keep them up

[@chopsticktravel]

Cool I've also been told it was walnuts. Thanks for watching :)

[@balares]

fair enough, and my pleasure!!

[@maceycornell]

great job you mentioned a festival when is that ?

[@ginalutao6519]

Bachang 😍😍😍

[@elsalisa146]

The story I heard was that there was a dragon in a river that demanded the head of a traveller to eat when boats went by the part of the river he was in. A poet? Was going to travel down this river so in order not to be eaten had these super tasty dumplings created so they could be thrown from the boat to the hungry dragon who liked them and would eat them instead of peoples heads. :)

[@Theliturgist]

My wife's from Kaohsiung and she told me the exact same story about the sticky rice dumplings. Her 81 year old father is racing this year in a dragonboat team there.

[@chopsticktravel]

Wow that is super cool! Good luck to him :)

[@Theliturgist]

Luke Martin RAW Do you guys live in Kaoshiung? If you do, the next time we are there we'd hope to run into you two. We can't visit there very often however but we go to many of the night markets. One we visited we had snake soup and from the stall next over we had eel noodles! Delicious! Plus we've had many of the offerings of street food, too many to mention here.

[@赵徐汇]

[@chandrairawan5684]

[@chopsticktravel]

[@user-mayth84]

[@karl.efdzan]

Hi..may i know how do they get rid of hairy feathers found in bamboo leaves? In order to wrap tht food. Or they using types of bamboo leaves tht has no hair feathers? I know those little feathers make you itching and its is not safe to wrap the food.

[@foxfair]

The second food you introduced is steam & pan fried bun, not dumplings. cheers
