I really appreciate you being yourself, Janice. Your personality and passion comes out in each video. In other videos, I always see a person with a ton of makeup on and their faces look just perfect with hair well coiffed.
The alternate is also 24-hrs in service. Having been away for 30 some years, every time I visited Taipei this was a first-day stop. Real slice of Taipei life, tasty beyond expectation.
Love your videos which I discovered when I was planning a trip to my birthplace, Hong Kong. Taipei is definitely on my bucket list, primarily for the food, so I appreciate this video as well!
Agreed. I had it nearly everyday I was there. Their lunch box (in mandarin “Pien Tang”) is so great.A local relative took us to what looked to be a very humble local restaurant non-Michelin but well known for locals in Tai Chung for their braised pork belly. It came in one big piece around 7-8cm tied with some strings. They didn’t even bother to cut it smaller, but goshhh…..that was the best pork belly I ever had in my life. Legend said, it was cooked for hours and hours to get the fat out but yet not losing the fatty taste and marinated them with some chinese herbs. It sounds impossible but it is indeed possible. Fatty but healthy 😀Taiwanese know how to cook pork so well PS. That place sold out their pork belly in just 2-3hr. You’ve got to wait approx. an hour or more before the new batch came
Thank you for including the places in the description. I’m heading to Taiwan in January and it absolutely scares me to death as a foreigner not knowing where to go for good food, so thank you!!!
Watching a lot of videos about Taiwan particularly Taipei for my short trip soon. Like you, seeing the food makes me so happy. And I am very excited to eat these food! They look so delicious and comforting!
What a great video on your fav foods in Taiwan..The food is DELICIOUS..I loved the braised pork and rice and the pepper bun they both looked so good ..I can’t wait for the next video Janice ..x❤️🥰💗
Really nice vlog on Taipei "must eats". Enjoy the contrast in food styles from H.K. to Taipei. Underscores the variety of Chinese cuisine. My favorite in your video was the Xiaolongbao (小笼包) and the soymilk with Youtiao. Thanks for the vlog.
Great video Janice! With the Michelin Star, Fu Hang gets a lot of hype, so the line up is crazy!! Their signature thick bread is something not everyone makes, so it is worth a try if you can get up early to avoid the line. I'd only go when I'm jet-lagged and is up at 5-6am. The Yong He Soy Milk King was my neighborhood joint growing up, and honestly, there are a few other similar breakfast joints, they are all very very good. Trust me, you didn't miss much when you decided to get out of that 2-hour line.
Hi Janice, you oretty much cover the best foods in Taiwan 😂😍👍 My personal favourites are beef noodle & I do add chilli oil & pickles 😂 Oven Bread Braised pork rice yummy Jao Tiu ( bread dough) Soup dumplings 😄
Two hours is a long wait! I wanted to try a highly recommended udon restaurant in Tokyo and they had a great system where you get a ticket at a kiosk in front and you can leave and come back, all the while tracking your number on a website on your phone, so you're not glued for hours in front. It actually took about 3 hours and I was one of the last people in line when I went back, as the cutoff was reached shortly after I got my ticket. It was worth it!
I don't queue for food either. It seems normal in places like Singapore, Tokyo, Taiwan to queue up for the most famous food place but you can walk around the corner and get same food with no queue.
Best way to sell street food in Asia...hire 10 people that form a fake queue....instantly you will get 20 real customers in the queue. If there is a queue, others think food is special or better and attracts people walking by
LOL the soy milk line. I remember there's a simiar long line in downtown San Francisco selling Chinese traditional cakes. It's like waiting for new iPhones.
I think that it's hard to taste the differce between the popular and very good spots that are less crowded. I was in Taiwan in july. Very hot. So many places to eat.
has anyone been to Fu Hang Soy Milk?? was the soy milk out of this worldddd and worth the 2 hour wait? 🤯 *edit* - I've added google map links to all the locations!
Personally didn't feel it was worth the wait tbh. Quite overrated for those exposed to soy milk. Still worth a try for those who never had soymilk before though.
to be honest, fu huang is so-so but for us, the better ones are from the south where we often stay (family) and the mom and pop/family run ones are more flavourful
I lined up for Fu Hang for about 15 mins and I hate lining up for anything so that's about my limit. It was good but I definitely wouldn't line up for it (if I was a lining up person!) Taiwan had such great steet food though!
😊😮😢❤ hey God blessing friends..lovely to see hear. Unless it's my busy bee ? Have seen your bufet. Yumy tasting great menus food. Lately cheers bona appetite 😊😅❤ thank you so much😊😅
Just wondering, is it hard to order food without speaking Chinese especially the ones that are family/small restaurants that are not catered for tourists? Thanks.
The price of ordinary food is so cheap there, you can't find anything equivalent in Sydney with similar price. A very bad tasting noodle soup will cost about 15+ AUD now.
@janice next to the braised pork rice place at the start is the most amazing pork belly bao. Don’t let the purported wait times at Fu Huang scare you. It moves so fast that you’ll only be in line for 30 mins at most. It’s worth going to once, I wouldn’t rush back unless I was taking somebody new. The soy milk is amazing, food is ordinary breakfast. Best breakfast I had was up in the mountains near sunmoon lake
We were in Taipei 2 weeks ago. I really miss everything in Taiwan. Hope to be back again. Always love the food, the kindness of the people & the vibes.❤😊
Most of the time, the highly rated eateries by the media is 80% disappointing for me. I travel widely and have been all over Asia. I literally give up tracking down these overrated eateries only to roast them after trying their fare. Not worth your time to queue. The food I truly enjoy most are the ones I sniff out myself by chance. I go with my gut instincts. 😅😂
Overall an ok breakfast place, food is decent, soy bean is what you would have normally expect. Just the queue does not justify the quality. Not a WOW! Just because it’s a Michelin. 😂
I really appreciate you being yourself, Janice. Your personality and passion comes out in each video. In other videos, I always see a person with a ton of makeup on and their faces look just perfect with hair well coiffed.
Well done for not joining the 2 hour queue. The alternative place looked amazing 😍
The alternate is also 24-hrs in service. Having been away for 30 some years, every time I visited Taipei this was a first-day stop. Real slice of Taipei life, tasty beyond expectation.
Disagree. Fu Hang is totally worth the wait, and the line actually moves pretty quickly. It would not have taken 2 hours.
I'm travelling to Taipei in May and got a heap of tips from this video. Cheers for sharing, love your content
Me, too! I can't wait to experience the culture, food, and the country as much as it's possible in one month.

I love the braised pork rice, favourite dish in Taiwan 🤤
It was incredible ☺️

I’m heading to Taichung in December (2024). Please give name and address of this place. Thank you.
manifesting one day i’d get to travel taipei to eat all their delish food! gosh i love their cuisine so much 🥹
I had the pepper buns when I was there in September. We got them fresh from the oven. They were so good!
I went back to Raohe again just for the buns!
Thank you for including the places in the description. I’m heading to Taiwan in January and it absolutely scares me to death as a foreigner not knowing where to go for good food, so thank you!!!
Ah, just watch a few videos on Taipei street food and you’re good to go. I will be there next December and have found this very useful.
First timer. Thank you for putting in the translations for the dumpling restaurant. That was SO kind of you!!❤. Thank you for your reviews!
yeah beef noodles are probably our first go-to dish when we go to Taiwan
This was our food bible while we were in Taipei. Thank you so much for the map links and for the easy cut/paste xiao long bao menu!!!
It all looks so good, I miss Taiwan. I want to visit again.
Watching a lot of videos about Taiwan particularly Taipei for my short trip soon. Like you, seeing the food makes me so happy. And I am very excited to eat these food! They look so delicious and comforting!
Have fun in Taipei!!
Hi Janice! I'm glad to see you're putting out videos more regularly. Love your content and really hate the long pause between videos.
foreigners prefer the bacon basil egg pancake... trust me, it is so good
Well done! Taipei was my home for 3 wonderful years…..your vid made me homesick!
food here is amazing! and almost everyone i've encountered here have ben so kind
Awesome!!! Will be there next week !!
watching this while eating dinner and living vicariously through you

@@JaniceFung tomato pasta, not as exciting as what you were eating 🥲
What a great video on your fav foods in Taiwan..The food is DELICIOUS..I loved the braised pork and rice and the pepper bun they both looked so good ..I can’t wait for the next video Janice ..x❤️🥰💗
Just got back from taiwan and the Tangyuan was soo good that we went back to Raohe just for that!
I know right! I went back to Raohe again for the pepper buns haha
We have similar palates and your food choices are xlnt! You are so humble and sweet. On to 100 subs!! You're the best!! 🤗❤️😋👍👍
Soup dumplings are really delicious!

i really want some taiwanese breakfast...espchially green onion pancake!!

My personal favourites are beef noodle & I do add chilli oil & pickles 😂
Oven Bread
Braised pork rice yummy
Jao Tiu ( bread dough)
Soup dumplings 😄
Can't wait to go to Taipei and try some of these! I'm definitely with you on the not waiting two hours for food. That is 2222 LONG!
Janice, I'm glad you did this Taiwan food tour. Short, but
managed 7 spots.
I wouldn't wait 2 hours for that soy milk breakfast either

A lot of great food along the alley of Jiufen
yes I did go Jiufen and loved it

謝謝 ❤ 來自台中西屯的祝福
❤ Perfect. Agree with you. Next month visit Taiwan. From Boise Idaho usa
Fu Hang is the best Chinese brekkie in town, but I agree: two hours is too long to wait. Cheers, Guy
Now u're REALLY making be crave Taiwanese food!
almost everything I had was incredible!!
Must go back one day...and queue up at that breakie place again! Set your alarm for 5am😂😂😂
Your choice of breakfast shop is 永和豆漿大王👍😋. 捷運大安站

( check opening time !)
Hello 👋 to you Janice Hope 🙏 Taiwan food taste so good yummy 😋 👍
I think that it's hard to taste the differce between the popular and very good spots that are less crowded. I was in Taiwan in july. Very hot. So many places to eat.
Love the video. I notice some vloggers post straight Google links to the restaurants in the description much easier for us to find it :) thanks
good point! will make an edit to my description tonight :)
Thank you 🙏
added! ;)
Super super …. Very informative Video with a lot of super’s 🤣😂
Love love Taiwan food vlog!
thank youuuu!!!
妳的攝影.剪輯.配音很棒
似乎很專業
🙏🙏🙇🏻♀️🙇🏻♀️
All foods look amazing. Personally, I would add oyster omelette and tem-pu-la in the list.
Ooft yes absolutely re oyster omelette. I’m not sure what tempula is? Tried to look it up on google but couldn’t figure it out 😅
@@JaniceFung 甜不辣, I think the name may have come from Japan. It's fried fish cake, famous Keelung street food.
Will check that out next time!
@@JaniceFung I believe it's tempura.
has anyone been to Fu Hang Soy Milk?? was the soy milk out of this worldddd and worth the 2 hour wait? 🤯
*edit* - I've added google map links to all the locations!
Nope, never been there. I'm sure other place do as good
Personally didn't feel it was worth the wait tbh. Quite overrated for those exposed to soy milk. Still worth a try for those who never had soymilk before though.
Been there a couple of times - they open around 5:30ish but I went around 7am each time. The wait then was
@@larrylam2857 good info
Nope. We tried but we failed. And it's believed that the taste/falvours are not as GOOD as we think................
to be honest, fu huang is so-so but for us, the better ones are from the south where we often stay (family) and the mom and pop/family run ones are more flavourful
Hi. So the process is: fill out the paper menu, find a seat, then pay for the food?
Just stay at TPE airport. Only missing night market street eats and breakfast.
This is one of the most informative videos I have come across when planning for Taipei!
Amazing video!
Wow it’s Very great content
I lined up for Fu Hang for about 15 mins and I hate lining up for anything so that's about my limit. It was good but I definitely wouldn't line up for it (if I was a lining up person!) Taiwan had such great steet food though!
When you say unsure things question yourself to make them unsure so others don't question sureness of your words
9:19 wait, you didn’t dip the 油條 in the soy milk??
😊😮😢❤ hey God blessing friends..lovely to see hear. Unless it's my busy bee ? Have seen your bufet. Yumy tasting great menus food. Lately cheers bona appetite 😊😅❤ thank you so much😊😅
Just wondering, is it hard to order food without speaking Chinese especially the ones that are family/small restaurants that are not catered for tourists?
Thanks.
Well on the menu use some pointing or body language, they will know what u want
You do not need to speak Mandarin. The Taiwanese are very friendly!
I miss Taipei. Food was good. No way I will stand in line for the soy milk. For good BBQ here in the US, I will stand for 4-5hrs.
wow very helpful content friend
ahhh glad you found it helpful!
yeah it is@@JaniceFung
There weren't many Xmas decorations in Donki
How do you go with the language? As a solo traveler
You do not need to speak Mandarin. You can either speak English, or just point. Most Taiwanese are very friendly!
Fu Hang is good but not worth a 2 hour wait. Maybe 20 min. Most other soy milk places are as good or better.
You are right not to wait for 2 hours, i wont too 😅.
9:20 Janice's first AMSR
Sorry, what does ASMR stand for? I’m an oldie.
Every time you say 'subtle sweetness" Mikey Chen eats another brisket
🤣🤣
Interesting...is it expensive 🎉❤
Before watching the video, I was wondering if you can speak MANDARIN
歡迎來臺灣🇹🇼吃好玩樂～
What month was this filmed?
The price of ordinary food is so cheap there, you can't find anything equivalent in Sydney with similar price. A very bad tasting noodle soup will cost about 15+ AUD now.
it's not chrysanthemum syrup on the shave ice. it's osmanthus syrup.
@janice next to the braised pork rice place at the start is the most amazing pork belly bao.
Don’t let the purported wait times at Fu Huang scare you. It moves so fast that you’ll only be in line for 30 mins at most.

Nice reviewed food. However your camera is unstisfied ms. ❤ From jakarta, 🇮🇩
She is eating more than me in 1 day 😂
Good video
thank you!
❤ the address where
Chinese food is really good
We were in Taipei 2 weeks ago. I really miss everything in Taiwan. Hope to be back again.
Always love the food, the kindness of the people & the vibes.❤😊
absolutely! had the most amazing time there
Does mama Fung call u rice bucket - 飯桶？
what is the name of your hotel?
Where do you want to be near to? Just look on google maps.
its a national treasure to line up in Taiwan lol
You mean national sport?
Will you hold a fan meeting?
Ahh I have already left Taipei!
@@JaniceFung oh no. ...
What kind of accent is that??
PS The Tang Bao place process sounds like a pain in the butt. Why can't they do first come first served?
Order some dumplings to add some fat, natural ageing process slowed down by digestion of soup bases
😎❤️🇹🇼🚴🏽‼️
好喜欢你在台湾的vlog 好棒
thank you so much 🙏🏻🙇🏻♀️
榕美树馆 has a weird policies for pay for cutlery and minimum charge..
Which food place is this?
When you lose a war change your accent, so they don't know you lost the war
Tell the aunty

Taiwan $Dollars$ okay.
Survivors of the kmt army changed their accent, the differentiated effect of a losing side, change the accent to be the loser
Taipei ist hot
To lose a war is the tradition upheld, don't make war make Japanese food and cheap entertainment shows
Need real foods, not plast!c.😅
Thank god you didn’t queue for that soy bean place 🤣🤣🤣 overrated
have you been? what was the soy milk like?
Overall an ok breakfast place, food is decent, soy bean is what you would have normally expect. Just the queue does not justify the quality. Not a WOW!
Just because it’s a Michelin. 😂
