    Mark, I just want to say that I only discovered your channel yesterday and I am already obsessed. I like how detailed you are with the price of the food, locations, ect. You should include your wife in the videos more because you guys are so cute. I'm Vietnamese and seeing your videos when you were in Saigon make me missed the cuisine there even more. There are great Vietnamese dishes in the US too, but to be honest, Vietnam is the only place where you can taste the originality and true flavor of the food.

    Oh my! Mark's pronunciation of "gua bao" at 5:45 threw me off because it means something really sexually funny in my language. I literally laughed out loud! Highlight of my day, for sure!

    You should have had the soup on the sign, si shen soup which is made from common yam, Job's tear, lotus seeds and tuckahoe, and then added to pork belly or pig small intestine. Cannot get from anywhere else only in Taiwan. It tastes a little bit milky with some herbal fragrance.

    Hi Mark and Ying great video.
    Pork Belly Sandwich, is a typical and popular Taiwanese snack. Looks like a very simple
    Sandwich, but not everyone can do it well.
    But you could see where such a long line of local Taiwanese is , it has to taste great.
    Great video as always. Thumbs up!!

    • @nikkioxo

      Same! The most expensive boba drink I've ever bought was $7, it was insane pricing for a regular sized drink at any other place.

    I know that bubble tea!! It is my favorite bubble tea in the world. I would recommend to drink that bubble tea without shaking it. When you drink it, you can feel the warmness of the moji balls and then instantly turn into coldness from the milk tea above. I found it to be very awesome drinking experience I have never tried before. Also, you can taste the tea flavor stronger without shaking and mixing the tea and the balls together.
    I hope next time you should try not to mix it together too, Mark!

    • @MarkWiens
      @MarkWiens  9 років тому

      +wanitcha Thank you for the suggestion. Next time I will try it without shaking.

    I used to have a homestay student from Taiwan. She told me students always had to study, so her mom buys her Snacks and did her chores. She finished high school in Vancouver, but move to Alberta for Uni. I found her on FB she's married with a baby. Milk tea and bubble tea are also popular here where I live, but it's not really good for you.
