I would definitely try the Bubble Tea bun. Thanks for your recommendations. Also 肉圓.新竹貢丸&米粉.They are my favourites since childhood. However,彰化 is more famous for 肉圓. Maybe you could explore there when you have a chance!
Agree totally with your take on the Spore chicken rice, definitely bamboo shoot better than miserable pieces of cucumbers but not forgetting the fresh fragrant corianders leaves n the vinegared chilli sauce that compliments the Spore Hainanese chicken rice. Oh how much l missed them. Makes me want to fly home to just spend two weeks in quarantine eating all the local food ordered from GRAB or asked my friends for favours to deliver my favorites to my quarantine hotel n then "bingeing" for the rest of my stay (a month) after the quarantine is over.
Perfect spoken Chinese! -from a fellow SGporean haha. And thank you for your foodtour of Hsinchu.. really makes me miss my stay there previously :) stay safe
Thks. Another great video on Taiwan foods. Agree that the Hainanese Chicken Rice in Singapore is nice and delicious. The rice is cooked with natural chicken stock and some spices, and the chicken meat is tender. 新竹市has many shops selling good foods. Love to visit Taiwan again when the pandemic is over Can you do an education system in Taiwan as compared to SG esp with expatriate like you whose children are in-between countries and attending different schools?
Hello, excellent report, very well detailed, I had just had lunch when I started to watch your video and I got hungry again 😊, thank you for sharing these trips and commenting on the gastronomic culture of Asia, I congratulate you on your excellent way of explaining everything , greetings and until the next video 😊👍☘️🙏.
Taiwanese chili sauce are mostly watery, sweet and a just a tiny tinge sour. Spiciness level could just be 5% at most for the sake of it haha! But lots of great food there. Just that Singapore's variety is much wider. I can't live long without a sample of our Malay/Indonesian food at least a meal or two per week.
Richard, it must be sweltering hot there @5:47; Man! Those copious droplets of sweat! Anywhere, always looking fwd to ur videos cause you brought to me 3 greatest loves - hiking, food & Taiwan! Would you ever wander out to other provinces for a day-shoot of sorts? TC and stay safe.
Yes. I will be starting more long distance and trips to other counties starting next week. It was a bit tough to do so while moving house, doing quarantine and with the kids on holiday!
If you want to try out some old military (眷村）flavor... try out 家家麵食. For Hakka style food, visit 義民廟 in 新埔. Also a Historic site. For a more diverse dining experience, go to 東門市場 in the evening and find small shops and restaurants that specialize in different styles. Kinda traditional market meets trendy feel. Personally a fan.
I'm from Hsinchu and grew up here, it's cool to see how you enjoy our foods) Regarding the 肉圓, I suggest you have a try of 內媽祖肉圓, it's my top 1 肉圓 in Hsinchu. There's another tasty food just at the corner not far away from 胡椒餅, it's pork ankle.（黃家豬腳). Anyway, there are a lot of delicious foods at the 北門 old street. Enjoy your life in Hsinchu.
Wow, thanks for the food tour. I admire you can live in such a good city. One suggestion, the post for food price is kind of short to me. The post disappears so quick (3 or 4 seconds). I need to rewind very post to watch the price again. If you can double the post window, that will be great to me. Have a good weekend.
Food food food , i had to have my lunch after watching the vlog Richard but thats not a bad thing . I think i would prefer Singapore Hainan Chicken Rice too . I think you really miss Singapore by all your references to the place but no worries Taiwan looks okay and good for your wife to be back home :-)
This week is a "tempting" epiode 🤤, but I still look forward to u bringing close ups of Taiwan scenaries 🥰. Still backtracking on your Spore videos (hope u dont delete them) as I followed u only a couple of months ago. Seems like we might have to go into another no outdoor dining session soon as many bus interchanges have been hard hit by covid in the past week! 😓😓😓
胡椒餅在台灣是很普遍的食物 台北比較有名的是萬華以及饒河夜市的胡椒餅 下回你可以來嘗試看看 Pepper cakes are very common food in Taiwan The more famous ones in Taipei are the pepper cakes at Wanhua and Raohe Night Market. You can try it next time 那家包子店我以前去買過，沒想到珍珠奶茶包你會這麼喜歡⋯下回我也要來嘗試看看
Pepper cake? Another one is in Xin chu 學府路 no. 54. You may check it out. Price is more reasonable. This store is belonging to Taipei's 大龍峒. Additional, there is an old store 'Fuzhou pepper cake' for several generations in Taipei. have fun!
Yes, you got it! Winchan chicken rice, it is better than Tien Tien Hainen Chicken in Maxwell food center!! There is another my singapore secret flavor in Hsinchu city. You can try Nanyan Laksa seafood noodle in 甘泉魚麵(No.56 Kuanhua north street). It is very similiar to Singapore Laksa.
SG has boon chang chicken rice too. And the last part where you were holding a bot of sambal chilli, my first thought was you have become half SG oredi bcoz SG can't go without chilli, we swear by it to go with the food. Lol. Hsin Chu looks like a quieter place than SG, I thought I like that💘😇.
Hi Richard, thank you for the food tour. Just on looks, I think I’ll go for the smoked sausage and the boba bun. Stay safe and take care. Look forward to your next adventure next Saturday. 😋😷
“美食沙漠” I like that. It's funny. Surely, it's getting better these days thanks to all the tech industry migrants? I guess it depends whether you are like me and will eat from the street stalls or not. I prefer that kind of food to overpriced restaurants.
@@AsiaHikelopedia I kinda disagree, there are quite a few, even smaller towns like Xinpu , Guanxi both have excellent Hakka style food not to far from CBD of Hsinchu, the only thing is, they generally not well advertised, and many Hakka restaurants don't even have signs, that sends the wrong signal, gives the wrong impression of "there isn't much to eat"...if you ever get tired of Hsinchu food, my hometown Zhongli/Taoyuan city have plenty to offer and isn't far away :)
curious how you throw trash in taiwan ? bring home ? i remember i was there , walk everywhere cant even find a trash can ,end up holding it for several hours
is there any rendang over there? not really clear from the video... i did tried singapore style chicken rice in ximengding which was owned by a celebrity when i was in taipei.... can said that the hainanese chicken rice was not really authentic but it aso not tat bad either...
Thanks for doing the food tour. Great job. Although Hainanese Chicken rice originated from Boon Chang, however, overtime South East Asian ones have evolve into something different from Hainan Island due to the blending of local spices & herbs used. .
Dude last September was such a crazy time. I remember getting takeout and eating it in a park like a criminal. The Cheng Zu buns look absolutely fire, though. Gonna try it next time I'm in Hsinchu. I really enjoyed your Hsinchu episodes. The local youtubers always shit on Hsinchu and Miaoli calling them food desert and cultural desert, so much so that I actually don't know any good spots in those two counties.

辛苦了！很開心看到你在台灣拍美食影片
謝謝你！
Hi thank u came to Hsinchu ,Have a good day!
Thank you! You too!
Some Singapore chicken rice use achar to replace cucumber and tomato
When I see you enjoying your favourite pepper bun, it explains why you also love curry puff that much.
以前最懷念的新竹美食，就是瑪露連嫩仙草跟銅鑼灣的沙嗲燴飯
竹北後來有很多好料好吃的，講著講著突然覺得應該來個新竹之旅
Well done, Richard. Another thumbs up for you.👍👍👍🇸🇬
謝謝你今天給我們的美食👍👍👍（看完影片有點餓了！）
Very interesting video. I will have to check out some of these places myself when I go into town!
You should!
If you are still around Hsinchu, there is another 胡椒餅 place on 學府路 that's also quite nice.
Thanks
Every episode bring so much surprises. The mood is like receiving a new story book. I would cuddle at a cosy corner and enjoy it. 👍
Besides珍珠奶茶 包, the other products are so delicious. You can taste next time, such as 城隍包,竹筍包…….
Glad you're back in Hsinchu
新竹另外一個有名的是鴨肉許..口味見人見智..東門市場裡面也有很多吃的.可以去試試看.
應該要排長龍？
沒去：Yamada山田麻糬製造所，有點可惜。在新竹市東區文昌街85號，還有鴨香飯也不錯，三億小吃店的客家湯圓，新竹市北區西大路393號。葉家大粒粉圓，胡椒餅旁邊。
Those Hu Jiao Bings look incredibly delicious
They are!
I would definitely try the Bubble Tea bun. Thanks for your recommendations. Also 肉圓.新竹貢丸&米粉.They are my favourites since childhood. However,彰化 is more famous for 肉圓. Maybe you could explore there when you have a chance!
I have had 彰化肉圓 before, but my wife's favourite is 南投市橋頭肉圓。

I like chicken rice too ^^ Glad you ike it^~^
I'm sure to try the bubble tea bun, thanks for the heads up! Enjoy Hsinchu local tea 東方美人茶!
I've had it before!
Nice and interesting intro of Taiwan’s food, thx bro!
I live in Hsinchu too. Thanks for introducing those restaurants. Like to give it a try
Please do!
Good food everywhere you go. Enjoy life with money and good health
那文昌雞飯好吃，推薦這家的雞魯飯與魚丸湯
Perfect spoken Chinese! -from a fellow SGporean haha. And thank you for your foodtour of Hsinchu.. really makes me miss my stay there previously :) stay safe
Thank you too!
as usual I enjoyed yr light-hearted & casual walkabout in 新竹市 & introducing their local cuisines, well done Richard👍🏻
I live in hsinchu but I never heard about the pepper bun before~look so delicious!!thanks for your recommendation!
Hope you like it!

I do really recommend 北門炸粿 , and all food there is delicious but very cheap. You can try it next time.

新竹花園夜市第一間很大的就叫「新加坡美食」很有名，有時候要排隊。新加坡人開的，我蠻喜歡的但不確定是台灣口味還是新加坡口味😂
我一定要去看看。 謝謝你的推薦

Fish ball soup is also tasty
Yes, true
Thanks for providing a Singapore dollar price equivalent @8:13.And at 5:19. And 12:30. And 15:06.

@@AsiaHikelopedia If you want to try more 肉圓 in Hsinchu, I can share more with you.
Lovely combi of walkabout and food. 👍🏻
Excellent journey! Thank you so much! Enjoyed it 100%! Looking forward to your next masterpiece! : )
Awesome, thank you!
肉圓我推薦再過去大遠百旁邊巷子進去的飛龍肉圓，或是內媽祖廟旁邊的肉圓
謝謝
Yeah ..singapore score 1 for our chicken rice...pls come back soon.
很久沒看到你的影片
今天看到你在新竹
太高興了
謝謝。歡迎回來！
Great food.....! so no place in SG to get Hujiao bing Hújiāo bǐng? Google does not know any.....
I know. I had to make my own!
可以試試城隍廟郭家元祖潤餅跟新加坡的薄餅有什麼不同
竹東中央市場的水粄(類似閩南碗粿,以前用碗裝現在包在塑膠袋內,由甜有鹹)跟新加坡Rice Cake的不同
竹東劉阿嬌菜包在新山有看過類似的
比較竹東客家醃雞配桔子醬+醬油 or 九層塔+醬油, 跟新加坡軟爛雞肉的不同(有外國RUclips喜歡桔子醬並把它做成Pasta Sauce之類的)
竹東客家粄條跟新加坡馬來西亞炒粿條之不同
其實還有許多其他飲食,你可以探索新加坡與台灣源自於大陸廣東福建的飲食導入2地之後的相同與不同
有空全家去新福飲食店吃吃以上許多介紹的傳統客家菜
糕餅類可以試試新復珍竹塹餅,北埔綠豆椪之類的
Good to see you settled in well and widening your range in Hsin Chu.
Richard is superb
不喜歡珍珠奶茶卻嘗試珍珠奶茶包
果然富含冒險精神
我自己吃炒麵跟炒米粉的時候都會搭店家的特製醬油
或者店家會主動在上面淋上一些肉燥
沒醬油沒肉燥的炒麵／炒米粉的確刺激不太到味蕾
Wow, thanks for the food tour. I admire you can live in such a good city. One suggestion, the post for food price is kind of short to me. The post disappears so quick (3 or 4 seconds). I need to rewind very post to watch the price again. If you can double the post window, that will be great to me. Have a good weekend.
Noted!

Food food food , i had to have my lunch after watching the vlog Richard but thats not a bad thing . I think i would prefer Singapore Hainan Chicken Rice too . I think you really miss Singapore by all your references to the place but no worries Taiwan looks okay and good for your wife to be back home :-)
I like both places, but for sure I do miss things about Singapore. But not cucumber! LOL

胡椒餅在台灣是很普遍的食物
台北比較有名的是萬華以及饒河夜市的胡椒餅
下回你可以來嘗試看看
Pepper cakes are very common food in Taiwan
The more famous ones in Taipei are the pepper cakes at Wanhua and Raohe Night Market.
You can try it next time
那家包子店我以前去買過，沒想到珍珠奶茶包你會這麼喜歡⋯下回我也要來嘗試看看
Try the Singaporean place (龍虎海南雞飯) on Minsheng Road - it’s probably the closest to Singaporean Hainanese chicken rice you’ll find in the city.
Really enjoying your content and can't wait to visit Taiwan again someday.
You should!
For that bubble tea bun, it said buy 10 get 6 more free. It was quite a bargain. I think they also have black sugar bun which is also quite nice.
I only bought 2! I need a bigger family.
非常中肯,城隍廟沒以前的味道.
Welcome to Taiwan 歡迎來台灣
Pepper cake? Another one is in Xin chu 學府路 no. 54. You may check it out. Price is more reasonable. This store is belonging to Taipei's 大龍峒. Additional, there is an old store 'Fuzhou pepper cake' for several generations in Taipei. have fun!
Thanks for the tips!
哈~~你回來吃胡椒餅了~~
等很久了吼~~
Given the cost of living in tw, 胡椒饼isn’t cheap however it’s also my all time favourite.
The chicken fats and pandan fragrance beat it all 😀
I guess the pepper bun here is a little bit higher priced. Usually a pepper bun costs roughly ntd $40
我周遭有住過新竹的人都說新竹是美食沙漠，除了很普通的鴨肉飯、炒米粉外，沒了！你以一個西方人的身份能找到這些在地人都不一定知道的巷子口美食還真不簡單👏
但 3:56 四個胡椒餅要200元，新竹物價果然不在天龍國之下 🤑
8:12 的文昌雞其實就是港式燒臘的 #玫瑰油雞 吧？那一定會被新加坡海南雞飯屌打😂（激推台北文慶雞，瑞記，與慶城海南雞）
這家文昌雞比新加坡我所有吃過的海南雞飯好吃，因為它是用土雞做的，新加坡是肉雞。上週去台北發現新竹物價比台北高了
@@policekuo5437 那這家有提供海南雞的蔥蒜醬嗎？
@@royok915 有喔， 非常香
As my understanding, the name of Wen-Chang chicken rice due to the chicken is a variety of Wen-Chang. It's nothing related to the city of Hainan, FYR.
Good to see your shorts have transitioned well to Taiwan after all!
Yeah thanks
The brown portion of sausage is made from sweet potato powder.
Thanks for the info!
@@AsiaHikelopedia kind of the different starch
Oh my, I regret watching this video now. It’s making me so hungry now .
Those buns look good :) I could use some cheddar as well myself now

Hsinchu is infamously known to be a 美食沙漠, so good to see that you are able to find that many options!

I think I'll pick the original pepper bun too.
嚐試新的食物，才會發現另外好吃的。
So hungry watching this video 😅
i missed Hsinchu's food also.
Richard, Is it just white rice in the Hainan chicken rice? How far is your place to Taipei?
Yes. Just plain rice. We are about 50 minutes drive.
@@AsiaHikelopedia Now i know why you prefer Singapore Chicken Rice :) Thanks for answering my queries. Have a pleasant day.
How about 生煎跑？ do you like them? Been wanting to travel to Taiwan just to eat it.
Yes, I do.
is there any rendang over there? not really clear from the video... i did tried singapore style chicken rice in ximengding which was owned by a celebrity when i was in taipei.... can said that the hainanese chicken rice was not really authentic but it aso not tat bad either...
Yes. There was rendang at the Indo place, but I didn't get any.
@@AsiaHikelopedia oh...u not a rendang lover? but anyway it's glad to see you manage to find the place that sell malay cuisine in taiwan...
No, I like it a lot. Just fancied something different that day
you should try Mung bean milk too =D~~~
Thanks for doing the food tour. Great job.
Although Hainanese Chicken rice originated from Boon Chang, however, overtime South East Asian ones have evolve into something different from Hainan Island due to the blending of local spices & herbs used. .
Do you prefer Taiwan or Singapore?
It's hard to choose. Both places have good and bad. Nowhere is perfect!
@@AsiaHikelopedia wished you could have made more vids about sg!
Hi Richard, please show us Shinchu Science Park especially TSMC. Understand it ranks 8th largest company in the world.
I gotta try to find if those bubble-tea buns (Boba buns) exist here in Singapore 😂😁🤣
Good luck!
Dude last September was such a crazy time. I remember getting takeout and eating it in a park like a criminal. The Cheng Zu buns look absolutely fire, though. Gonna try it next time I'm in Hsinchu. I really enjoyed your Hsinchu episodes. The local youtubers always shit on Hsinchu and Miaoli calling them food desert and cultural desert, so much so that I actually don't know any good spots in those two counties.
由於商圈轉移，竹北的美食餐廳比新竹還多， 你可以去逛逛！！！！
where is the chili for chicken rice?
You can get it at the shop, but I didn't.
Oh my... Richard your mandarin is pretty good 😍
Thank you! 😃 It was much more fluent before I moved to Singapore. But I rarely used it there.
有一家“瑪露連嫩仙草”可以去試試看喔！
推薦 新竹 璽子的斤餅
謝謝。我一定要試吃！
Have ｕever been to the actual Hainan?
Nope！
No chilli. In SG, most dishes has it own chilli....😁😁😋
好想吃😋！
What Taiwanese snacks or meals that you think it’ll be popular in U.K. or for British tongue?
The idea of a bubble tea bun is absolutely insane but I expect to see it in Singapore very soon.
It's been around a while. If it was coming, I guess it would have already arrived.
好想吃珍珠奶茶包
庙口鸭香饭 is the best in my opinion. 300台湾新竹市北區中山路142號
Price not really much different from SG. Thought it would much cheaper. I think you will miss the SG chicken rice chillies
We miss you in SG.Regards Dr Sabapathy.
