    Taiwan is a food lovers paradise and today we’re going to two places, one that serves a luxurious chicken soup that’s been boiled for over 12 hours and another that serves a local Taiwanese ginger duck hot pot. It’s going to be a delicious food tour in Taipei!
    Here are the places I ate in this video:
    Chicken soup at Ji Yuan Restaurant 驥園川菜餐廳 (goo.gl/maps/AsvUFdj6JSnZeztJ7) - This restaurant is legendary - make sure you make reservations and pre-book your giant chicken soup - it’s insanely tasty!
    Total price - 3,780 TWD ($124.96)
    Steamed Bun Shop (寧波生煎包): goo.gl/maps/iERUVJ5aY9zV8DZp6 - Can’t go wrong with these legendary Shanghainese fried buns.
    Ginger Duck Hot Pot (鴨味仔紅面薑母鴨 松江店): goo.gl/maps/Kh1PUeJUbRTFnUuWA - This is definitely a unique food experience in Taiwan, something that doesn’t always get the spotlight compared to the famous Taiwanese hot pots.
    Total price - 720 TWD ($23.80)
    All the food on this tour was outstanding, highly recommended when you’re in Taipei, Taiwan!

    Ginger duck hot pot can only be found in Taiwan. It is a very local Taiwanese dish, especially during wintertime. Normally these restaurants do not run the business in the summer.
    It is very delicious, completely different from any other type of hot pot. Cook it with vegetables, duck heart, pork blood cake, meat balls, and many kinds of hot pot ingredients. And vermicelli is also a thing of must-eat.
    Strongly suggest foreigners try it when there is a chance to visit Taiwan. One of my favorites!
