Hello Luke! Thanks for posting this video. I'm very excited to visit Taiwan this March 11th. Though, I'm a bit worried what clothes to bring since the weather seems to be so eratic? Would you mind telling us when this video was taken? Is it cold outside this march? Thanks a lot!

[@LukeMartin]

This was taken at the beginning of March! You will want to wear pants. T shirt during the day and a light sweater during the nights! It's very comfortable weather this time for Taiwan

[@Jishiro]

That's good news! Thanks for the quick response Luke! Best of luck to your travels, I'll be sure to watch many if your videos and visit places you recommend. I hope you can also visit my country, the Philippines, and do some videos here too. 🎉

[@WesDaviestravel]

Depends which city you go to. I live in the South (Kaohsiung) and it's already feeling like hot summer down here. But Taipei is much colder and rainy this time of year. Have a good trip!

[@jerry9761]

I really cant forget the 鳳梨蝦球 which is fried shrimp and pineapple covered with mayonnaise, also the dice-size fried stinky tofu. They are my favorite food in Tonghua night market.

[@LukeMartin]

[@goldenradar456]

[@AussieAngeS]

Awesome food in Taiwan, those Bao looks delicious, the ones at the start and the hamburger ones 😍

[@pegeen007]

I always love your informative and picturesque videos. If i were there I would prefer the buttered shrimp with onions and garlic; the dessert with the red bean paste; and the peanut mochi balls. Thank you....because you bring all these countries to me...and it is like being there in person.

[@Bacon420]

Oh jeez, just found this at 5am...I'm so high...wish I had this amazing food. ..damn munchies. That Gua Bao is like a complete meal! I could eat that every day.

[@jovanlopez777]

Great videos keep it up!

[@LukeMartin]

Thanks so much 😊

[@twinfans5553]

That would taste so good 😍

[@cafezo87934]

I love the Taiwanese porridge but I always have the canned version. fresh looks so good.

[@grahoovian1375]

Dig the music, I'm dying to try one of these pork filled buns I keep seeing in Asia vids. Luke and Sabrina keep it up!

[@mikegeorgius7589]

Me too. These videos and others have made me want to try all kind of di foods. Peace...

[@chelseauy1536]

[@nicolalin6660]

Excellent job as always from handsome Luke and his beautiful life partner. This night market not far from my home. Roughly 10 minutes walking time. I'v. usually been there to get a large-sized chicken steak w/ seaweeds. Or occasionally having a set of 5 steamed dumplings w/ pork.

[@LukeMartin]

Wow youre so lucky to live close by:)

[@nicolalin6660]

I went to Tonghua Night Market to feed my stomach one hour ago.

[@adraincem3631]

The foods are so yummmm ❤❤❤

[@LukeMartin]

mmm mmm:)

[@aricjohnson3639]

This is another great video. I like the way you edit your videos with a nice music selection. I now want to go back to Taiwan and eat.

[@siriwannakada6661]

[@arabianfood6930]

Nice work, keep going :)

[@LukeMartin]

Thank you!:)

[@tiangmuangmoom1232]

👍👍👍

[@junairufin7275]

We have versions of all the food you ate here in the Philippines from Chinese influence. We have siopao for steamed buns, cuapao for gua bao, macy for the moshi balls and all are yummy! Maybe try Philippines next? You'll definitely enjoy our pinoy streetfoods like kwek-kwek, fishballs, fish tempura, squidballs, isaw, salted mani, sweetcorn, turon with langka, lugaw, goto and so much more!

[@peaceharmony9339]

Hi 💖just came over from Sonny best ever review, nice everyone are hungry , keep going 💪💃

[@LukeMartin]

Awesome! Thanks so much!

[@samanthainlove]

Am so jealous. I hope my son will be like you and enjoy food and traveling

[@jonsucrese]

awesome video everything looked awesome, your like really inspirational to me with your great travels, but more then that your videos make me happy and I glad I can watch the they make my day better thank you

[@LukeMartin]

Thank you so much! That really means so much to hear that! More videos to come😊

[@mikegeorgius7589]

New to your channel. LOVE IT. Deserves mucho mas subscription. Keep it up Luke. Love from Oakland California. Peace...ps. Your girlfriend is soooo cute...

[@davidlo19a]

I think the dark colored sweet congee you ate is actually based on purple rice, not red beans. 八寶紫米粥? They do have a red-bean based soup, but I think it's something else.

[@culinaryadvent]

Hey you all! Appreciate your hard work (and enjoyment as well I'm sure)! Just glad to witness it all!

[@LukeMartin]

Thanks Clara:) We appreciate your comment!

[@juans1751]

I love Taiwan TwT beutyful country , industry bicycles technology and automotive and food , people sites history all chinese culture i love ! I wanna travel and live in this freedom republic of China :D :3

[@NLvik]

這集的東西我都好喜歡啊 通化夜市只去過幾次 但這樣我知道下次要找什麼吃了XD

[@LukeMartin]

謝謝：）

[@user-wj6km9dw9i]

推通化街最前面那間水煎包 每次去必買 好吃:D

[@taetaeisthesun_1249]

Watching you eat makes me full 😂😂

[@Timmycakes88]

always always always love your vids! however, i have one little gripe: the tends to play at a much higher volume than the talking parts so i find myself constantly lowering the volume slider when music plays, and then raising it when you guys speak. maybe the volume needs to be equalized a bit between the 2? at any rate, keep up the great content!

[@WesDaviestravel]

I usually never go for the sweet stuff in Taiwan but those tang yuan looked super good. Might have to give it a shot.

[@LukeMartin]

Oh man you gotta try them theyre awesome!

[@sabrinadavidson5022]

Do it!!!!

[@pauljean-pierre7254]

Nice Video and the food looks Good to Bon Appetit.

[@LukeMartin]

Thanks Paul! Glad you liked it!

[@pauljean-pierre7254]

I hope you2 have more great food and nightly Videos for Us to enjoy safe travels have fun!

[@leelovesfood9129]

Hot dumplings and steam buns are the best things ever for a cold night :3

[@LukeMartin]

Oh yeah!

[@samuelhan83]

best food channel keep it up!!!

[@DavidSewellStopSmokingHypnosis]

Luke, you should do a video on your vlogging and camera gear!

[@pewkhor1953]

My friend lives in one of those side alleys in the market. So whenever I visit Taiwan, I’d stay at his place. I know the market very well and there are two things which you missed - stinky tofu and herbal duck soup.

[@roykuo4]

you can kind of tell how good it is by how long Luke goes mmmm for hahaha

[@chibichumon]

Love your videos! I always try to get my friends to see your stuff. I really appreciate the representation you give to Taiwan especially since they’re so underrepresented in the international community. Are you purely just a food and travel vlogger now? Or are you making ends meet in other ways? I think it would be pretty awesome if you did a series of your everyday life. Even if it’s boring, I think it would show how life is like as an expat in Taiwan. What are your thoughts?

[@LukeMartin]

Hi Irving! We are youtubing and traveling fulltime right now. We have lots of videos coming stay tuned!

[@WesDaviestravel]

I love when they do vlog style vids, too. I just moved to Kaohsiung, maybe I can give it a shot too. I don't have nearly as nice a camera as Luke and Sabrina though lol. Gotta start saving up!

[@annchee1329]

😊

[@yuwei2199]

I really like the video you posted. I live in Taichung, and I hope to let you enjoy the food in Taichung. Are you interested in visiting Taichung?

[@LukeMartin]

Taichung is awesome! We will hopefully make some videos there in the future!

[@yuwei2199]

NICE!!!! Look forward to watching your new video.

[@Sharonnecs]

I enjoy seeing the different cookware in Asia. Very unique. I wonder if the round frozen steak, was bits of meat that is glued together and set into a mold to shape it. The desert looks enticing and so different from deserts in the United States.

[@shalon4jc2]

Hi Luke love your videos. Do you have a Chinese background? Was just curious.

[@LukeMartin]

No Chinese background! :)

[@Sparks29857]

I need to go to Taiwan now

[@LukeMartin]

Yes!!!

[@user-ss5kc6yz4h]

Welcome

[@blindalphabet9911]

This place better than shillin night market. This Thung hua night market in Taipei City.

[@sheriffcrandy]

Yo the song in the beginning is dope! Name?

[@lilo9439]

湯圓要吃巷子裡面那間"御品元冰火湯圓"，只走了後面一小段好可惜~前面還有其他美食~你可以下集補充^__^

[@disasterisreal9740]

My mouth is watering :'(

[@LukeMartin]

Hah thanks so much for watching buddy!

[@Yogirliej4dee]

Those Taiwanese desserts look healthy but I love Tang Yuan because they can be bought anywhere that has Asian grocery stores.

[@chiminyang5183]

Hey Martin, the seeds in the sweet congee are actually lotus seeds and not chickpea. These sweets and Gua boa are my favorite but have a hard time finding in the US. Your videos make me salivate and hungry 😂

[@imsaltysam]

Those were lotus seeds, not chickpeas. Love your vids!
