delicious ride in Flushing through some of the best Taiwanese eats in town let's go

nice to meet you all right I'm gonna join my friends today Vinnie and Justin Justin

is after Taiwanese so it's very qualified for this video I hope so show us your passport [Music] at

Taipei Hong we ordered the stinky tofu guapao and pork chop rice let's dig in this reminds me but

you tried it yes you tried it yeah pray for me pray for me put yourself in another mindset go for

it be smooth huh you're a foodie doing everything come on yeah speak for yourself all right

not bad I think it's the choir Chase because if you don't grow up with it like it's interesting

I could take this but I can't take drinks and you love durian right all right stinky tofu

you either hate it or you love it one bite and you'll know be gagging or hook Cheers Cheers

obviously sticky tofu's fermented certainly pungent in some ways and typically eat it with

pickled vegetables because the acidity helps but I do like the fried version I think I like

the fried version more too yeah the steamed version even more pungent but for nothing

class knowledge that's bearable it actually goes up to your nose a little bit it's actually not

bad at all it's like a regular fermentation with a little bit of bitterness to it but

it's very bearable Justin you said this is like super authentic looking yeah usually it is this

big in Taiwan it's a Taiwanese hamburger right so Guapo so inside you have a big

piece of pork belly and you also have sugar peanuts sour crush and cilantro cilantro is

very much used in Taiwanese cooking and pickled mustard so the acidity cuts through the fat bro

put that back oh does it taste like soapy the cilantro tastes like so too [Applause]

I love the sugar peanuts yeah sweet it's Savory but then you also have some sourness

some changes for the Pickled mustard and the pork bellies freeze so it's tender it's so freaking

looks really juicy at the same time too from the

opening here it looks very well it's very seasoned with like Cheers Cheers

very crunchy and just melts in your mouth at the same time this is like the most iconic

Taiwanese dish right so in my markets this is one more time like Ben said white pepper it's the

main ingredient which is why the seasoning has that really fragrant kick to it that's special

about a lot of like Asian fried chicken we got the Taiwanese pork chop over rice here as the

pickled vegetables we have braised pork rice and then they have shiitake mushrooms in there oh so

they're probably dehydrated shiitake mushrooms which is more concentrated in flavor I believe

you give it a bite hmm the vegetables are so so good the Pickled mustard greens I know there's a

notch off a single bite I got a little bit too carried away there Ben's mom make this

really delicious there's some very real homemade cooking right here I don't like any vegetables

for ten dollars this nuts halal food out of the park they got some real composition here

in Flushing it tastes like a dish that my mama made that is actually the most fragrant white

rice I ever had but where can I get that pickle vegetable is it in Supermarket you could find this

Market sometimes they sell it in packages my mom actually makes her own but I don't know how she

makes I gotta learn yeah and then teach us yeah I will so here on the first part we have all the

iconic Taiwanese dishes popcorn chicken salt and pepper pork chop and all the other good stuff I'm
