So, today is the official start of the dragon boat festival 2023 here in Taiwan! My first dragon boat festival in fact, this 3 day competition comprises of teams from around Asia, including the Philippines and others.
We explore along the river banks where the teams are warming up, check out some of the racing itself, and then sample some of the delights at the food stalls.
First we try the cheesiest mozzarella sticks on planet Earth, followed by a traditional dish eaten at the dragon boat festival- Zongzi; sticky rice stuffed with pork and spices wrapped in bamboo leaves....I mean...what is NOT to absolutely LOVE here??? Simply amazing!
The opening ceremony wasn't anything to rave about, just a bunch of dignitaries & sponsors being brought up to the stage over a period of 45 minutes. Pretty boring.
Thank you for watching today and I hope you enjoyed this video, have an awesome day! 🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼
Wonderful！ Ihave not found Duanwu dragon boat competition.
新髮型很適合台灣炎熱的夏季。😂
Yes, probably a bit too short though 🤣
We do have dragon boat race in the Sarawak River every year so our heat is more humid haha
It's so hot around these parts of Asia this year, even more so, 🥵🥵🥵🥵
Love the new hairstyle Dan. Safe travels.
Cheers mate! It was one of those "holy crap" Asian barber moments, she basically cut it was too short and was super fast so I couldn't stop her in time. She was like Edward Scissorhands 😲
@@DanvsFood Malaysian Scissorhands gave you a short mo hawk cut mate . Can't go to a job interview looking like that Dan. Glad to see your viewer ship is up again. Taiwan is your new home for a while It is a good thing.🙏
@@brucewayne2773 I was hoping nobody would notice 🤣 I hate it. Ah well, it'll grow back haha
Thank you Dan, Taiwanese speak Mandarin very well. Your new hairstyle is cute，dye your hair pink and beard purple.❤
Hehe, I'll definitely consider it 🤣
雖然沒有中文字幕
但我還是看完了😂
Thank you so much! For some reason, the subtitles did not work on this video, I have no idea why. I spoke with RUclips but they were seeing different on their end and mine, so we both couldn't change the settings or figure out the problem 😭😭😭
Hi handsome bear!
The zongzi you had was the indigenous people zongzi instead of regular ones that covered with bamboo leaves or shell ginger leaves. However, all of them are yummy.
Yes, it was yum 😋
@@DanvsFood And those leaves are edible because it was an indigenous people version of zongzi so that no need to be worry.
I think that one was covered with khasya trichodesma leaves as the second layers and filled up with pork or wild pork and foxtail millet so I'm pretty sure that was a chinavu.
In indigenous people language they call it chinavu
and the foxtail millet is the yellow thing that you said it's similar to couscous.
indigenous people use it to make foxtail millet wine as well.
Also, the staff who sold that to you already peeled off the bamboo leaves for you, so you're fine. :)
@@PinocchioXIII ah I see, I thought so. Yes, the leaves are very thin, and tasted really nice 😋
Thanks for the information 🙏🙏🙏
The indigenous zongzi called "A Bai" ,the yellow rice inside is millet.The leaf is from "Khasya trichodesma",they were edible.
Thank you 🙏
i don't think the custom of dragonboat racing existed in Taiwan before the end of ww2. It was Kmt that brought this custom to Taiwan after ww2. As for Zongzi, people in Taiwan and in southeast Asian countries as well have had the habit of carrying the foods wrapped in different types of leaves with them when they've had to travel away from home since time immemorial. The zongzi you ate in this video is made in Formosan Austronesian indigenous type which is pretty different from Chinese version of Zongzis.
Thank you for the info Lily 🙏🇹🇼🙏
@@DanvsFoodn fact, many Taiwanese aborigines have had a boat racing culture similar to dragon boat from a long time ago.
During the Qing Dynasty, many dragon boat races were held in Taiwan already.
During the Japanese occupation period, there were also grand many dragon boat races in places such as Tamsui River and Kaohsiung Port.
For example, the painting "扒龍船" painted by painter Cai Xue-xi in 1930 depicts the scene of Taipei people watching dragon boat races in Dadaocheng.
@@DanvsFood 是的，台湾的端午节跟中国没有任何关系，只知道韩国和台湾有端午节，中国没有，中国没有端午假期，没有龙舟比赛、没见过粽子是什么东西。二战前台湾没有一个汉人，全是南岛民族！今天的台湾社会是由97%南岛民族跟3%汉人组成的。
@@tiro_taiwan ah cool, interesting! Thank you 😊😊😊
Dragon Boat Festival, also called Duanwu Festival is one of the four grandest traditional Chinese festivals to commemorate Qu Yuan an ancient Chinese patriotic poet, Dragon Boat racing and eating Zongzi are two main activities for most people, others like hanging calamus and wormwood, wearing perfume pouches and pasting portrait of Zhong Kui few people do now.
Thanks for the detailed information 3yex 👍🇹🇼👍
Yeah we Chinese will eat zongzi to celebrate dragon boat festival
Yes 😊🇹🇼😊
@@JonProphet111 yeah 在马来西亚也是。Yes here in Malaysia too you can find everyday just more so during the dragon boat festival. I still have some in my freezer 😅
Leave can’t be eaten. It is packaged outside.
I think this particular variety of zongzi leaf is edible, it's very thin, similar with a vine leaf. Thanks for watching 🙂
90 days Vietnam visa will in 15/08/2023. Will you come to eat Bun Cha again 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅😅😅?
Probably not, they're always changing the rules or going back on what they announce, same with Thailand 😉
not eat the bamboo leaves😁
Ok 👌 thank you
You shouldn’t eat the bamboo leaves
These leaves were very think, soft and cooked, I think they were edible, but if you say so, probably not 😅
@@DanvsFood 葉子可以吃，竹葉就不行了。
@@pcje thank you 😊
他吃的這種應該是原住民阿拜粽，葉子是可以吃的
@@DanvsFood Even it looks tender, the leaf of bamboo has too much fiber, I am surprised that you didn't have any difficulty to swallwo it.
The bamboo leaf is not edible !
This particular leaf was edible 👍
