14:07 Amy's mom is such a positive person even when she doesn't like a dish. She always has something nice to say about the dish. :)

Big thanks to you for introducing Taiwan on ur channel. Welcome to Taiwan as soon as you can travel overseas and I am more than happy to be your guide to show u around. ❤️

love the openmindedness of your parents to trying new foods that may not fit their palate! everyone was so positive and the food looked amazing! gained a new sub!

Taiwanese food is much much similar to Fujian Food since many people in taiwan come from Fujian since their ancestors. Both provinces are great in making food. Love it!

东南沿海都有很多相似但各有特色的美食。台湾除了本地特色还有很多眷村美食，集合了很多其他省份美食的本地版

It's so amazing to see how much life seems back to normal in Australia. Here in the Philippines we've been on lockdown for a year already and cases are currently surging like crazy. So thanks so much for these videos! They've been a good way to relax and unwind amidst these trying times :)

Just love the atmosphere and nice relationship in this family. Some jokes, some chats, kinda hearty.

Amy you all are so lovely and positive about all the dishes. It s such a pleasure to watch you all enjoyin' all the food🌺

Amy's mom appreciation of food is so wise 😍

You are so blessed. Your parents are very nice people and so supportive of all your activities.

I think the reason Chinese desserts aren't sweet is that they're meant to balance the main meal and ease digestion (yin balancing the yang of the often fatty meat and carbs). Red bean is a natural cleanser which is why it is good to eat post meal. Whereas I think the origins of western dessert were to fill people up when times were hard - all the sugar and butter supplemented quite thin main meals. Great to see rice balls featured here :)

Your videos are amazing! You just put so much effort in it. Plus I always have something to watch while eating lol

What a nice introduction to Taiwanese food. Your Mum diplomatic as ever and your Dad behaving unusually impeccable (perhaps the heavy breakfast had something to do with it! :D)

I already subscribed, so I always have thought your dad was a champion :)

Yummy delicious by d look.wit all yr intro menu must try next time.love yr video keep it coming

I have to say you have such a good energy. Keep going!

definitely agreed when Amy said "you have to be sophisticated before you can really enjoy the taste of the hundred years egg". Not a single ingredient can replace 皮蛋 for its unique sophistication.

The rice balls with yiaotao in the middle - I tried recently and found it such a delicious comfort food. I had the sweet one but was told a salty or savoury one was available which I think I would like more. The combination of soft rice, crunchy dough. So good. This one had pickles too. The very thin omelette wrapped around yiaotao also looks fricken amazing! Need to get back to my local Chinatown. I used to live next door but hardly go anymore. Amy’s videos are making me want to build it back into my routine of deliciousness!

OMG I love braised and minced pork with rice. My grandmother is from Taiwan and she would cook this all the time. I like the century egg with congee, it's delicious! :)

Looks so good!

Love Taiwanese food! So simple but so good

Please make another Taiwanese food episode composed of none-breakfast, like popcorn chicken and Taiwanese beef noodle soup🙏

Loving your food adventures, thank you❤️from uk

The food in Taiwan is so cheap & so good. Even their ordinary food “Pian Tang” sold in the train station areas taste so good.

In Malaysia, we usually dip youtiao into soy bean milk😍

That place is my favorite too! And what a coincidence that your dad mentioned pearls as they were invented in Taiwan!

Good stuff. I was born in Taipei, and certainly those are quite authentic Taiwanese Dishes. I would recommend a few more dishes and different places for breakfast. When I was a kid in Taiwan, Yo Fan or oily rice was my favorite. It’s stick rice made with pork fat dried shrimp, and peanuts. It’s stick rice that can be eating with your hand out of a plastic bad. Breakfast item by definition need to be finger food. It’s literally fast food Taiwanese style. Also another you must try is Taiwanese Style bakeries. Portuguese Egg Tart, Milk Custard bread, Potato Salad bread, deep fried pork chop sandwich or chicken. Wash them down with milk tea with boba.

Thank you for sharing your love for Asian culture. Living in Canada, I can see that the general sentiment towards Asians in America has been worse since last year. Your content really contributes to our community

Amy. Love your show. Please come visit Taiwan after the pandemic is over. The Taiwanese people are very welcoming and the food is delicious. You'll definitely have a great time there.

I've only ever found one Taiwanese restaurant here in the states that serves Soursop smoothies. Definitely recommend hunting one down if you've never had it before.

Happy Anniversary you both! 🫂

I subscribed a long time ago cause your dad is a champion

Hope you get to go visit Taiwan soon some day. As someone that is from there I miss the food being over seas.

Singapore has our own version of oyster omelette too that is slightly different from that of Taiwan! Hope to see you try more sg food other than crabs!!! By the way, I love the food from Taiwan so much that I can’t wait to go back Taiwan to feast after covid!!

first time i tried lu rou fan when i was in taiwan walking around the night market and it was raining during winter. it was such a nice hearty meal having a hot bowl of lu rou fan when its cold outside.

Taiwanese food, in particular Taipei, is very internationalized these days due to the large foreigners population living and working in the major cities. Globalization has its wonderous side, but along with it, the smothering of old traditional recipes which become endangered and thus sometimes pricier to eat. For example, there is a special Taiwanese rice cake dessert called "Chuang Yuan Gao". One of my favorites but also rarely found these days in Taiwan. Taiwan, like some of the other more internationalized and recently historically complicated places from China such as Shanghai and Hong Kong, have a very vibrant and multiplural cuisine. Strictly speaking, Modern Taiwanese cuisine is a mishmash of American, Japanese and Chinese cuisine combined - predominantly still led by strong Chinese roots and influences - in particular from Fujian but also a mixture of Shanghai and Szechuan.

Hi Amy, for authentic Taiwanese food, I would recommend The Secret Alley in Sydney China Town and Sunflower Taiwanese Gourmet (One near USYD and one in Haymarket) :)

Wow so cool i never had Tiawanese food .. and im in Sydney .. will ahve to check it out

Nice video. I don't know if that restaurant have this but vermicelli noodle is a must try. That is the first thing I eat when I land in Taiwan.

you should try the Kowloon Cafe in the background of this video. They are a Hong Kong Cafe. The food and drinks there are amazing! I can eat there every single day and won't get bored.

Alan would be the perfect final boss in an '80s John Woo action flick.

Used to go there pretty often when we lived in Sydney.

Alot of my team mates was from Taiwan and they introduced me to Taiwanese cuisine 😁

Hotel breakfast lol your dad is so cute 😂

You need to try Singapore/Malaysia Oyster Omelette. I tried Taiwanese one so many times but it just cannot grow on me. I get Taiwanese to tried Singapore/Malaysia style one they immediately switch sides. Ours is not Q but it is much tastier and the chili it comes with makes a big difference.

Just had my breakfast, now i feel like eating again 😁

7:09 😂😂😂😂😂 truly overcome by the 饭团

Blondie's Dad is a champ! As with youtiao, you gotta dip the sticky rice roll into the sweeten, warm soy milk. Dunk it like a donut in coffee. Otherwise, it might be a bit dry.

hi blondie. have you ever tried beer duck? that actually a very famous cuisine in Chinese dishes.

Hi Amy, any chance you can do a video about Australian food? I’m interested in what Australians eat.

Happy Anniversary to your mom & dad! 🙂

I wonder if the restaurant called Mother Chu's Vegetarian on Pitt St has the same owner as this one in Chinatown?

Love your Dad , he should have his own food channel , lol

Taiwan are also very famous for their 牛肉面 beef noodle, which I think your dad would enjoy. I would also recommend the 鸭油饭 duck grease rice, add a drop of soya sauce and it is heavenly..both very Taiwanese food. come to think of it, any Taiwanese 油饭 is good. also 麻油鸡 is also very popular.

really enjoy ur video

You need to visit Taiwan. Lets go!

You should try the hundred year egg with some sesame oil, soy, and Japanese pickled ginger. Makes for an interesting bite over some hot rice or congee.

I had that Lychee beer before and it's great. LOL.

Hello from Taiwan!! :))

Haha nice. I only know Taiwan for its bubble tea domination but you opened my eyes introducing its own cuisine. Interesting. Also good luck heading into 200,000 mark.

I missed this vlog. Cool parents.

The century egg is an acquired taste. Hated it when I was a child, and now I actually likes it a lot, normally eat it with some tofu and soy sauce. The egg does have that distinctive pungent taste to it. Have you tried 皮蛋瘦肉粥? It's a good way to start eating the egg. Instead of getting hit by that pungent taste directly from the egg, It gets dissolved into the 粥, it doesn’t hit you in the face, can taste it in a lighter note. 皮蛋瘦肉粥 and 油條 is my go to breakfast. Give that a try

You should try the real street foods in Taiwan, unbelievable cheap and tasty!!

You need to go to separate stalls/stores to try each and truly appreciate these items (in Taiwan).

i love and miss Youtiao, we usually eat with soya milk, doujiang.

Easy game changer for the fermented eggs (hundred years old egg.) Prepare a dipping sauce with soy sauce (or soy paste), black vinegar and a clove (or 2) of smashed garlic (if soy paste is used dice the garlic) (and ginger optional.) Mix and stir and let sauce sit for a minute or two. Use as dip. or Split egg through center and pour sauce mix on split egg (making sure the yoke gets a good amount.)

waiting for you to come Taiwan!!!!!!!!!

I'm Chinese and I'm very much like your mom - I don't like that kind of red bean. But I like it when all the red bean is mushed into paste, and there's no trace of the beans. Maybe your mom will also like that more too! You can find this kind of fine paste in some Cantonese pastries, but even then it's sort of an individual taste and up to the baker in question. Kind of like egg tart crusts - a lot of places will make egg tarts with the flaky crusts, but very traditional egg tarts are made with a cookie/pie crust.

First of all, I like all your videos and how much you appreciate different food from different nation. Century Egg is a much delicate title, instead of Hundred-year-old egg. LOL PS: it's called 皮蛋, english translation would be "Skin-Egg" LMAO

Taiwanese Food looks lush, you're so lucky to have access to all these restaurants. I love soya milk and dessert, try soya dessert it's really. tasty. The chinese restaurant i visit they put a vanilla essence in the soya dessert, try putting it into the milk it really sweetens the drink and is tasty, i presume they gave you unsweetened soya milk, sweetened is loads better, i always buy sweetened, it is great to drink

They should have ordered "Hu Jiao Bin" AKA Pepper Beef Puff. Congee/Porridge usually my least favorite when I was a child, but those century eggs mixed with pork became my delicacy.

😅 my husband always talks about going to China as a child and buying a ‘cherry’ popsicle which turned out to be red bean and the disappointment that traumatised him 😄

hundred year old egg.. in my place, we called it century egg, it's usually served with minced pork congee. The way you eat century egg is not to take it mouth full alone but just a quarter portion of the egg mixed with something else.

Breakfast beers, that's what I like to see

What about the dumplings and the Taiwanese Beef Noodles???

I lived in Taiwan for 2 years, and really enjoyed the flavours there! The night market food in Taiwan is so yummy!! I love Taiwan!

Blondie & family can try Bak Kut Teh which is very popular dish in MY/SG Overseas Chinese community, this dish is not served in China perhaps you can get it in Australia 😉

Just had breakfast n watching yr video, now need to hunt for food..

I am surprised that beef noodle soup wasn’t served. It’s the quintessential Taiwanese dish. Also, doufuhua 豆腐花 is eaten sweet in Southern China, but savoury in Northern. Generally, Southern Chinese cuisine is more sweet, while Northern is more savoury and spicy.

I do eat Vegemite (well Marmite actually) on its own. I love licking it off the spoon little by little

I like Taiwan street food, so goooooood

4:04 so not true. most of the big beer factories would use rice as one key ingredient in brewing beer.and the main reason is to raise the alcohol degree and lower the cost.

Welcome to taste the Taiwanese food. It is lighter than the mainland Chinese food. It is similar to the Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang foods. Some snacks have the taste of Southeast Asia. When you actually come to Taiwan, you will find that the meals will be softer or tenderer than these... such as tofu and tofu pudding.

蛋饼 and 饭团 are two of the most common breakfast choices in mainland China as well...eat them my whole life..

Singapore's food next!!!

Looks good but where's the Taiwanese beef noodle soup? Or bamboo sticky rice?

You have t visit the beautiful country of Taiwan and the food is amazing :P

that century egg portion haha, its really an acquired taste.

Are you still producing contents for Canton TV?

End it with boba tea, it's definitely super sweet

Kent street carpark, still not the cheapest in the city area. Goulburn st is cheaper

Any duck tongue and STEAM stinky tofu in this shop? If so, then you should try.

Oyster omelette is my favorite Taiwanese food , especially in Tainan

歡迎來台灣玩，但要有減肥的心理準備XD

Your dad is the champion, but i;m not sure about that taiwanese guy's intro. LMAO

I love cold douhua with brown sugar

I think you should do a Lightroom and Vlogging course on udemy

5:48 after quick google迅速百度了一下哈哈哈

Tbh i'd compare thousand y/o egg with blue cheese, both have acrid mouth overpowering kinda taste. Have to get used to them before really liking them, plus its with the accompanying ingredients that make it good
