What's up, and welcome to beautiful. Je taiwan. My name is Luc, Martin with Chopstick travel comm and today
I am taking you on a breakfast street food mission. This is my third video
I've made here in je and that's because there's so much good food here. So let's go see what we get
Okay, we're at our first thought for breakfast today
And we're just sitting down to have a cup of almond tea and this is very interesting
I've never seen it before he actually cracked a raw egg and mix it with the almond tea
And I think I saw him put a little bit of sugar in and it's just looks awesome, so let's try it
Wow, oh wow?
delicious it's really creamy and the egg gives a kind of like a
Really like 60 consistently and it has a nice nutty almond flavor
That's really refreshing and it'll wake you up this morning
So we actually ordered up two different kinds
This is just the regular almond tea without the egg and this is such a cool spot
We're right on the side of the street here and really friendly people try this one. Oh
Gosh mmM. Oh I wanted a little more sweet and
Again, just nice and nutty really creamy and goes down flew
Such a great way to start the day that was such a refreshingly smooth almond tea
We are an area called non men in je so definitely come
Meet this uncle he is super friendly if you're ever in Joey, and try some delicious almond tea
All right
All right at our next spot here. This is such a cool little stall
We're actually inside of a restaurant which has this old stall that is completely wooden
And he is serving something called tongue-tied Decal which is a rice cake
Cylindrical rice cake the way that this is made is it is a themed
Rice cake and it's sort of in a cup and at the bottom of the cup is
For a fork usually and then the rice is on top and then it goes into his special steamed back
So look there's no, sweet sauce. I'm not exactly sure this is the kind of like
Gooey sweet red sauce and let's break up. What does goes man. It's served with this really cool kind of
pillow Chopstick
thumbs up go throw this dog
Okay, this is really Gooey. Let's try it
It has a nice leg block so it's off saltiness, and then the sweet red sauce gives it a nice big contrasting sweetness
Okay, we're moving along and next we have ordered up a fish soup big chunks of deep fried fish and some spring onions
And a melon and this looks really good, so let's try it
It's not very salty actually
But it has a nice kind of a food bitch flavor and let's try one of these chunks of 50
And actually quite a meaty chunks
Off very lightly battered and it's kind of absorbed all the essence from that broth
Okay, that was a really good spot. I really enjoyed the fungi me
Go really easy on the stomach early in the morning, so to go and see what else we can find
you
Okay, we're at our next spot
And we are sitting down for a very typical classic taiwanese breakfast of go down
And yo cow so here we have the yo cow and it is absolutely huge
And basically it's kind of like a Chinese churro
But it's not sweet a little salty deep fried dough and just turn to a crisp and then we have something that is called
Shinzo John which is a salty soy milk, and you can see there is lots of ingredients in here
She put some little baby shrimp and then also a yo cow
Crushed up yo Chou and then some green onion
Oh also pork floss and the soy milk is almost like hurdled in there and she also put some vinegar
Which is really interesting lots of different ingredients in here, and this looks really good
We're going to start with the salty soy milk and normally when I order soy milk
I actually orders a sweet kind and it doesn't come with any of these ingredients, but this is also pretty good
It's quite a hearty meal
So I'm going to try a piece out with the crunched-up yokel and I can see the shrimp in there all the ingredients hopefully
Okay, I can tell this is going to be very hot so try it
The dried shrimp have a really strong flavor
So you can definitely take like a little bit of fishy flavor in the yokel and kind of soggy
Completely saturated with all of the soy milk, and then you can definitely taste the vinegar as well
it gives it a nice acidic sourness moving on to the yo chou and I'm going to break this open and
Dunk it in My salty soy milk
All right, oh, yeah. Oh that it's so crispy you can just hear it
Okay, I've got a nice piece right here try this
Dip it in here?
try that
Wow, that really does a good job soaking up all the flavor in there
But this is nice and crisp but supposed to do the euro tell that was put into the Tele mouth which is quite soggy
Seeing as though we're in Southern Taiwan. No typical taiwanese breakfast would be complete without a little bit of sweetness
So that's why we ordered out my favorite and that is the sweetened soy milk
And this is just the classic during Taiwan. Oh
It's just so smooth nice and cold and refreshing
Really nice typical and Hearty taiwanese breakfast here
This is a famous fall in Jaii, and this is their new location because unfortunately their old location actually burnt down
We're at our next spot
And this is a very famous spot to have a pride radish dish those go inside try to
Okay, this restaurant is serving a very unique dish. This is called Tinsley
Which is a fried radish cake and this is something
I've had before and love so the way that they make these radish cake this first
They're actually steamed in these baskets right here
And then they are thrown onto the shallow fry in quite a bit of oil and now you can see that she's actually topped it
with an egg a fried egg
And then a ton of what I imagine is probably sweet sauce and we actually have two different kinds we have one that is
Infused with soy sauce so it's kind of a brown color and then the regular radish cake which is just the white color okay?
Let's do the taste test. I'm going to try one of the pieces of the soy sauce infused
radish cake and also try to get a piece of egg
Yep, keep egg here, and then get some sauce and that looks like a good bite. Okay. Let's try this
The Sauce is quite salty it almost sounds like a mashed potato
Texture and it is a little bit sweet as well, and that egg gives it a nice like meatiness
Let's try out the white radish cake with a soy top now
And you can tell this is just gold and crispy on the outside, and I get some that egg. That's really good with it
so that one's
Quite a bit less
salty because there's no soy sauce infused and that time I got a piece of the egg yolk so it's nice and creamy, so
Far this is really good
It's almost like a fried mashed potato patty
And there's also some provided garlic sauce and chili sauce and this is like a really nice almost pureed garlic
Sauce so I'll add a little bit of that
And there's also some chili sauce, so I'll pour some of that on
Yeah, that looks good. Okay. Let's cut this piece off, and this is one of the soy sauce
saltier versions and just try that by itself
oh
That Chilli Sauce is quite spicy actually okay. Those are some awesome fried, radish cake
This is my style of a restaurant a bunch of night on piece cooking you up some really high quality
Home-cooked food, so I'm getting pretty full but I think we can eat a little bit more. So keep going secretly fine, okay
This is something I can never resist and that is coconut water such a refreshing drink. So we're going to order one up
Like I said I can never resist a nice coconut water so refreshing and very friendly uncle here selling it
Oh yeah, so just like naturally sweet a little bit warm, but right here the coca. It doesn't get fresher than that a
lot
to hold yeah yeah
Streetside coconut water, it doesn't really get much better than that and this is packed with so much water. I'm surprised
And it's like a little bit of pulp as well
I'm sorry to all my viewers, but this is my new favorite subscriber the coconut man
simply a lot Lethal all
Laughter he's going to let me crack open one of these hook it up over cuba
any
Cold-Hearted I thought no straw required. Yeah
Okay, we certainly deserve this we need to cool down and have some dessert
It's quite a hot day and we have been eating tons and this pot is very famous for their tongue yen
Which is a sweet dumpling?
But we ordered up the couple dumplings and also the shaved ice and there is just tons of things in here
There is some Barley some taro in here somewheres some different beans lots of Little chuy's
I'm not exactly sure what everything is but I'm just going to get a big scoop of loss and make sure to get some shaved
ice
He'll try this
It's nice and cool. There's lots of different textures going on there some are chewy and some sort of like turn into a paint
So I think there's also some red beans in there and also
I you jelly but just really nice and refreshing okay, so we're going to try one of the con un
Which is a kind of like a mochi ball
Mochi wrapping with a sweet filling so two different kinds we have one is peanut and one it's sesame
But I don't know which is which. I'm just going to try this one here
Hmm
Whoa that's really hard to chew
But well it's still warm on the inside this one with the sesame kind
Hmm. Just packed with sesame seeds and a little bit of sugar, okay, we just completely
Destroyed that shaved type, and it's too good
We had to order another thing at this restaurant
And we ordered up a hot dish this time and this is a soup with the same
Chun-Yin and it smells amazing, so
We've got pretty much all the same ingredients
I think this is a terrible we've got some red beans, and this is actually sweet potato ball lots of different
Chuy's and she just told us that the long shaped one
so this one right here is the peanut and then the more spherical one is the
Sesame seeds, so I think I like the sesame seeds better. Maybe I'll just try this soup first
Hmm. Whoa, really, sweet someone's like a maple zero and I said Hop
Okay, let's try out the peanut
dumpling oh
awesome, whoa
I'm just like peanut butter on the inside
This isn't as chewy as laughs. Oh because it's warm and it's kind of like more creamy
how much really nice
Okay, just finished off with our amazing homemade sweet dumpling soup and shaved ice I particularly like the shape I?
Stein is nice and refreshing on this hot day and this place is an institution here in Joey Super famous since 1979
Definitely try it out if you're here, and I think that concludes our tour today
