I see a nice hack on your video to go visit the night markets when it rains. Less crowds to deal with. I cant get enough of Taiwan food. Great video Tj

[@CupofTJ]

Hahha YESS soo true, and also very vibey :) thank you for watching!!

[@LordLOC]

TJ, thanks for this one. I was in Taiwan once back in 1995 and I always love seeing night street food videos like this. Now of course, things have changed a ton since I was there 30 some odd years ago, but overall it's still just stall after stall of incredible food. Both western influenced and Taiwanese/Chinese/Asian foods naturally. I will say, I LOVE beef/chicken chow fun. It's literally my favorite food I've eaten - and the absolute best chow fun I ever had was in Taiwan at some mom and pop spot not to far from that night market. I doubt the restaurant is still there after all this time, but my word was it good. And unlike a lot of Chinese spots here in the US as you know, they wok hei the shiiiiiii out of their ingredients :D

[@C2k23_]

yay!! Good to see you again TJ! more street food videos with TJ!

[@CupofTJ]

When I can for sure! This was so fun though :')!!

[@urjazza]

October cant come fast enough! looking forward for Taiwan so much!

OMG such a good time to go, enjoy!!

[@popypopy3140]

Welcome back. Got introduced to TJ through her 7-11 Taiwan Vid. Will def try all of this when I go to Taipei. The only thing that's missing from this video is lack of sly food related innuendos

[@nimpys1]

Glad to see a new vlog, hurray

[@slasherfreek]

9:08 Not too sweet. The ultimate Asian praise.

[@CupofTJ]

FACTS 💖✨

[@emilywynstra]

That huge fried chicken looked so delectable and reminded me of the old-school McDonald’s hashbrowns served out of a paper envelope like that! Such a fun munching video with your friends❤

[@CupofTJ]

Omg so true!! I could eat a hashbrown right now...

[@funkychicken2119]

The chicken is my go too every time I’m in Taiwan or HK. I would say the Hot Star chicken and Mammy eggettes are top of the list. A close third would be the pork buns from Tim Ho Wan

[@TheWellnessCuess]

Food looks amazing ! ✨

[@susanchang7825]

Last year when I visited my family in Kaohsiung, we drove from Kaohsiung to Pingtung to get cold sesame noodles by my old elementary school. I miss it so much. I’m salivating watching you guys eat the stinky tofu. 😋

[@dazuotv]

Your friends are all so open minded and such adventurous eaters! I'm glad you even went to try the soup version of stinky tofu, which is also very good but mostly only locals are able to accept it.

Hey TJ! The sausage looked good and the peanut ice cream dessert, take care❤

[@CupofTJ]

Yesss good choices!!

[@brianbaxter3913]

Hi TJ great video. Makes me want to go to Taiwan more everytime I see one of these videos. I would love to try everything except the tofo and blood cakes. Not a fan of either and if I got that peanut roll I would get it without cilantro. The chicken and sausage and mushrooms looked the best. The drinks looked good as well. I am hoping to go there some time next year. I still love your reaction when you are taking the first bite of something. Your friends had some good reactions as well. Keep smiling and stay safe

One way to overcome the duck blood aversion is just to think of it as another savory milk pudding, as technically milk is just filtrated blood and another source of protein.

OK as a vegan who has visited Taiwan a couple times, I have a Western opinion on stinky tofu 😂 The deep fried version with hot sauce and pickled cabbage is obviously the best way to eat it, and delicious, although I know people who still think it tastes too rotten. I tried stinky tofu in a vegan soup for the first time last year, and was literally gagging as I tried to swallow the chunks 🤣So there are different difficulty levels of stinky tofu. To be safe stick to the deep fried LOL xoxoxo

[@CupofTJ]

LOL YESSS agree there are levels to stinky tofu for sure!! I love the fried version, delicious!!
