Would you dare to try this fermented, raw tofu? + Walking with Dinosaurs 2 (台北最高的山+台北最臭的食物) 有中文字幕

Join myself, Andrew and Hugo as we hike the tallest mountain in Taipei (Mt, Qixing 1,120m) and check out the fumaroles before heading into the city for a deliciously pongy snack!

You don’t need a car to do this hike as you can catch the 260 bus from downtown Taipei to Yangmingshan Park HQ where the trail starts.

真難想像有老外喜歡臭豆腐，而且還吃的很自在！ 太太太不容易了！向您致敬！

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝

[@justwalk-travelasmrchannel1630]

My favorite morning show! keep it going, Richard! take care there you guys!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks! Will do!

[@zwu6721]

"All alive still."🤣 This is how you talk to your dearest friends.

[@dicky19730730]

Hugo好強，踏出人生在台灣的一大步，當然理查N.O.1是無庸置疑的，祝福你們！

[@myliferecords214]

I am from Malaysia 🇲🇾 We just went to Xiaoyoukeng few weeks ago but we didn't hike. Thanks for the sharing and I love that ice-cream so much 🤭 I tried pineapple 🍍 It is really delicious with natural taste ❤

[@EL-wm5wl]

Yes! multiple vehicles are the best strategy for everyone to get involved in a non-loop hike!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Actually, this one can be done pretty easily on public transport! Details are in the description.

[@Lance58]

影片中不論是爬山或吃的，看起來都心曠神怡，非常棒！

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝你！

[@SanJoseCAJeff]

great to see you hiking again in Taiwan and including Hugo, your capable foil

[@yubooncheng9309]

Love the feeling of being in the clouds at mountainous places. Something that I’ll never get to experience in Singapore 🙁

[@Potomacstud]

Richard is superb , just like going on a tour with him every week , the man is awesome , i missed him yet i never felt his absence

[@東東-k6g]

爬山過程拍的很舒服~很舒服的山

[@adonis5254]

Taiwan is a beautiful country. ❤️ 🇹🇼

[@devilpen6565]

獨臭之家。Wonderful stinky Cabin or Skunk Hut........It's really pretty cool

[@policekuo5437]

Chaoling Historical Trail Manchao Festival is just coming next month. You can prepare for that. It is the best moment to climb.

[@syarifahnajwa5491]

Nice view Richard👍👍👍ur die hard fans fm Singapore😁

[@ccadcjc]

Amazing hike ends with stinky toufu.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

The best ending!

[@korkor279]

Well done Richard, enjoyed it very much. Nice scenery and from the looks of it, fine cool weather too. However, i must take my hat off you for your fermented tofu adventure! I cannot even go near it because of strong smell. I have yet to overcome it. An acquired taste I guessed.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks 👍 Actually the smell wasn't too bad. Hugo acts as the canary in the coal mine as I am immune. Even he didn't complain!

[@tomcat1251]

👌👍🏻nice show ! Richard.

[@WWK186]

Well done guys! I am sure you enjoyed yourselves. The wind was so strong on top of the mountain, I thought the three of you might lift off and take flight.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

It was fun!

[@stevengoh1421]

Thanks Richard, I love this stinky Saturday in Taiwan Taipei 👍🤠

[@Yishushu]

Great video! It was also really heartwarming to hear 阿姨们 chatting in the background at the 臭豆腐 place. Missed that feeling so much.

[@jerrycynx]

Hi Richard! Was wondering when you would go 台北 and do a 陽明山 video! This was a great video as always. Great to see Andrew and Hugo again! Especially Hugo with his characteristic double hiking poles! Looking forward to your next video. And I do wish you could do 2 videos per week!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Me too, but the subtitles take up too much of my time!

[@HugoBandi]

Glad I finally have a characteristic anything! Those poles and my boots have saved me many times.

[@mikehou9461]

Kudos to you, Richard, that raw stinky tofu is really beyond my stomach's reach.

[@dlewis9760]

I don't know Chinese. I've probably picked up 30-40 characters watching Taiwan KZbinrs with CC. I now know volcano (火山). Only a couple of thousand to go!!!!!! Unfortunately I won't live that long.

[@TheSkskitey]

A nice hike Richard and with old friends . Tofu is an acquired taste i believe and i haven't really tried it but you never know :-)

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Tofu itself doesn't have much taste to acquire, but the fermented stuff in next level.

[@huachang126]

天啊你好厲害！這家臭豆腐已經比平常的臭了，你竟然還吃涼拌的，我朋友推薦這家給我還跟我說不要點涼拌的臭豆腐😂你好厲害👍 但這家炸臭豆腐真的好吃😋 七星山非常美～上次在芒草季的時候爬，風景很棒！

[@chinlokechun4605]

Woww ... Awesome 🇲🇾 A 老外 eating & enjoying stinky tofu, even many Chinese would run away from stinky tofu 😂

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

😋

[@johnyang2]

Hey, I have not spoken to you for a while. Good to see you doing this. Your perspective has been quite objective in doing comparisons of different places. I like to see your take on TW vs. CN.

[@kiralaw6206]

Thanks for the nice introduction of 阳明山!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

You are welcome！

[@楊朝欽-t2s]

Long time no see~ Hugo😄

[@HugoBandi]

Long time no see Richard!

[@jamesc571]

I can also recommend another thing to do, end your trip in Beitou, book a hot spring bath and take a hot spring, they offer day bath as well as optional staying a night at the hot spring hotel, although this experience is getting expensive as many Beitou hot spring hotels/resorts has done up and improve to 5 stars standards....

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

If I do it will be off camera. KZbin is not ready for 3 old men in a hot spring!

[@785055]

Great video. Thanks for good view and food journey. You are guru in Taiwan.

[@kojungfa]

颱風剛離開不久常常有「颱風尾」你們在七星山遇到的風我們會這麼稱呼它。

[@曾幼芬]

台灣北部地區爬山，建議一大早，因為中午以後，易起霧。 北橫拉拉山神木和太平山更適合喜歡爬山的人。

[@ginochen2936]

Bad weather at the top of mountain, but it is another type of beauty.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

True

[@LifewithSSss]

Having scallion pancake in the bush 😋 what a nice breakfast

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes it was!

[@AmbientWalking]

I'm usually not a prude when it comes to food, Richard, but the one thing that I really can't handle is fermented tofu. I'm almost surprised because I love all fermented foods; tempeh, kimchi, natto... I guess it really is the smell that turns me off.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Actually, it wasn't that smelly. Or maybe I'm immune these days?

[@AmbientWalking]

@@AsiaHikelopedia You do get used to smelly smells... so I'm not so surprised.

[@foxtwo]

3:16 - LOL sorry... when you first saw your friends and said “好久不见" (long time no see), I misheard it as "how's your Fujian?" (asking him how his Taiwanese was).🤣😂 Cuz, you said that in the Westerner way, my brain was still hearing English Words ... 😂🤣😂 ps - I found that Boba Bread at Breadtalk in Singapore 😁😁

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Nice! But I never saw it when I was in Sing.

[@sdarkao9297]

Hello Richard 👋👋👋 Nice Video !!!👍👍👍

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Hey, thanks

[@sikaing8168]

Nice. Stay safe Richard. We are waiting for your video every week here in Singapore.

[@史惠明-n8x]

厲害👍還敢吃臭豆腐

[@JoeBergy122]

Knowing Taiwan, this will soon become your most popular video ever.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

You think so?

[@hazeroth]

Such a fun video to watch. Thanks, Richard!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@leeedward4399]

The tofu burger looks interesting. Yes, a VERY BIG thumbs-up for eating the “raw” tofu. 😜

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thank you 😋

[@Yeh-gj2rg]

因為你勇敢吃了 臭豆腐我給你...讚....

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝

[@aliceliu8708]

你們真勇敢，那麼臭的臭豆腐！

[@viok2932]

Nice trail,great windy weather and with wonderful friends!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes it was!

[@ccelva]

陽明山的冷水坑步道很美很好爬

[@hydroschua5018]

You guys are so lucky to be out there, quality time.

[@s4pulidi]

Wow.... Exotic Food! Great video Richard!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks!

[@munyuenleong8167]

Like the misty feeling we dont get here in Spore. As for the stinky tofu...argh! I wont get near it even if u pay me S$1K😓. Many yrs back they hv it at Chinatown Complex, I threw out everything I ate for lunch upon smelling it! 😫😫

[@AMakesmesmile]

My family absolutely love ur videos

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thank you!

[@percussimo]

一個古老文化大學傳說, 在冬天想翹課的學生可以等老師點名以後, 利用濃霧從教室後面的窗戶溜走 可惜又是白牆但Hugo回歸了

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Haha!

[@HugoBandi]

I wasn't used to abuse from him, but quickly recovered!

[@nimuil]

I remember first time i had ordered lamb steak with blue cheese in New Zealand decades ago. I called the girl angrily and complained about the quality of the food.

[@andrewmiles9652]

Nice video Richard. Just a quick question I noticed you had a mask on throughout your hike. Is that compulsory in Taipei or just personal preference?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Compulsory at the moment, even when outside hiking. Which I think is a bit silly. But them's the rules.

[@張小齡]

七星山上，常常有雲霧

[@asl169]

That raw stinky tofu blow my mind XD

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

It's good!

[@BobsUtopia]

Hiking is my favourite thing to do. Especially in Taiwan. I've hiked Yangmingshan before but not this part. Next time I'm there!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

You should! It's a nice hike, but brutal when it's hot.

[@阿妮卡-h6e]

😋臭漢堡好吃

[@nomore1010]

3個大男人變成3個大男孩XD

[@diverdave2179]

I liked the fried stinky tofu, but I agree, it's an acquired taste.

[@melissachou8856]

You make me hungry when you having stinky tofu.

[@AD-mb6kx]

讚👍

[@tairandodx]

有看到Richard在登山借問站詢問雲南扁螢幼蟲的文，但我自己有點意外竟然是在七星山小油坑步道上遇到的

[@wangpaochen8569]

Nice clear view from the top, in the beginning of your video especially after the typhoon. All the pollution washed away. Japan was also hit by 2 typhoons within 2 weeks. But the 2nd Typhoon wasnt as strong as the 1st. Heavy rain hit South of Japan, as usual, they get hit really bad before it went to Shanghai. Dont know much abt Taiwan. Thanks for your interesting hike videos n history of Taiwan.🙏🗾 Oh my favorite, Fermented tofu.

[@jcchalfin4700]

At the end of this video, you probably meant to say ‘fight for mental health’, not ‘fight against mental health’. That’s what eating too much stinky tofu does to the brain!

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Haha! Someone noticed!

[@iammm66]

出發前 天是清的 10:30am前上到山頂 七星山上雲團還不會擋到台北盆地

[@tokuo0511]

Hi Richard 好酒不见

[@jamesc571]

8:47 I can't believe it gets that windy there.....no black doggie followed you guys this time?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

No dog, just lots of wind!

[@teoweeli]

What phone are you using?

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Just a crappy mid-range Samsung

Does Taiwan have non dodgy Massage Parlors? Asking for a friend.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Yes. Blind people massage!

別這樣啦~林森北也有很多很棒的餐廳跟影院

Why not

陽明山下的石牌就有戴家臭豆腐分店

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

謝謝。下次我知道

[@王采虹]

Stinky,臭豆腐！

[@TL243]

😎❤️🇹🇼‼️

[@sinweiy]

wish we have raw tofu in Singapore

[@atsaichu]

Unless they don't make it anymore... But you should have tried 臭膏 (stinky paste) at Dai's. As you can probably tell by its name, this stinky tofu no longer resembles tofu. It has disintegrated into some slimy gooey paste after the long fermentation process. Edited to add that 臭膏 is not on the menu. You'd have to ask for it.

[@AsiaHikelopedia]

Thanks for the tip. Next time!

[@dennisleong7866]

The best 臭豆腐still the best in Hong Kong , Taiwan 臭豆腐 cannot make it
