☀️ LATEST VIDEO : DON'T Forget To Try Before You Die - Underrated Night Market In Taipei, Taiwan 🇹🇼bit.ly/2kuGakJ
Hello brother , I like your video , it's look very good. How can ask you about your guide, and how can I contact him. Thank you brother. Sorry for my writing.
Taiwan is definitely going on the bucket list.
It should! Such a beautiful place!
Divert Living moving to Cebu in 2021, so it will be easy from there.
As a Taiwanese, l’d ask you that do you know what in this video l appreciate?
You don’t choose to visit those fancy restaurant recommendations in the mooks, instead you take chance to explore daily markets in the neighborhood to find really nice foods! You are blessed!
Aww thank you so much! We love the local side
Aw.... i miss Taiwan..
thank you Divert Living! U guys did a great job with this video, Taiwan is such a beautiful country. I am super homesick now...
Aww thank you so much! We really love it here!
I can’t find a country named Taiwan, there is only Republic of China.
I love Stinky Tofu - we're the same 😂😂😂
Taiwanese are friendly people. I love how welcoming they were when I was there. Your tour guide seem friendly too.
Aww they are so friendly!
This tour guide is excellent and he took you to the usual life what we have in Taiwan.
He was amazing!
As a Taiwanese, I am really happy to see you like Taiwan, and the video is interesting and feeling very warm !
Seen from elephant mountain
Taipei's night is beautiful…🌆
It really is!
Taiwan is fantastic
How we miss stinky tofu so much...we love the grilled one...and yes bubble tea is a must when visiting Taipei! 😁😋🤤
Aww you guys are brave hahaha
This was an excellent food tour with a very knowledgeable and competent guide. All the food looked delicious. I've had them all when I lived in Taipei for a year. However, I am not a fan of stinky tofu. If you haven't visited yet, go to Shilin night market, great eats and lots of things to see and buy.
Aww the night markets are amazing!
The tour guide is really good.
He is so entertaining and have great knowledge!:)
well done !! I am thinking about him ,too.
and the place you choose (maybe he choose ) are so special that i might don’t know it. btw I am a taiwanese.
But about what he said about bubble tea. It’s a little misunderstanding that usually you order a bubble tea is ponder milk that’s right. But you can tell the clerk that you want the really milk . you can choose what kind of milk you want. Of course you probably need to pay more money
great to see you back in taiwan I've said it before and I'll say it again that place looks amazing
So so amazing!
I’m a Taiwanese and idk why I love to watch these vlog of my own country even though I’m living in the exact same environment.
So cool! thank you for watching!
It is nice watching people from other places in the world enjoying your home.
Going on a guided tour is not a bad idea sometimes. I always wander around on my own but a local person can tell you things that you wouldn’t know otherwise
Its really nice!
Nice video.... great channel! Are you guys coming to Taichung??
lifeintaiwan hey! are you from taiwan? i just want to ask where i can buy soft peanut candy? or is it called peanut sugar candy?
@@bbdollgaming5045 花生糖 or 牛軋糖 those are popular snacks in Taiwan
,you can shopping in any store,for example like 7-11 or even Pastry shop,shop mall
Blue Sky ua-cam.com/video/2AyLMRiXca4/v-deo.html is it like this? the one that can be bought in 7/11 or malls? 😍 because i searched and all i could find out is daxi old st but its too far to travel to
lin lin thank you 😍
@@bbdollgaming5045 You can buy it in "No. 166, Sec. 3, Chongqing N. Rd., Datong Dist., Taipei City 103, Taiwan" 龍情花生
Love Taiwanese street foods
So do we!
Thanks for sharing your video also advertising about Taiwan.🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼👍hope you enjoy your trip in Taiwan😊
Aww thank you so much for watching:)
Great food tour. It’s made me want to travel to Taiwan now! Shame UA-cam placed 20 advertisements in a 18 minute video though...
I can’t wait to go back!!! This seems so good.
everything is great in TAIWAN!!!!!
Hello, I am Taiwanese, I have to explain all the bubble tea shop has “powder” or “milk”, you can choose. Of course the milk’s bubble tea is more expensive than powder.
Got it ! That's why i see some people drink white bubble tea 😊😊
你知道的太多了
你真的知道太多了
Can’t wait to visit taiwan next month!! 😍 Very informative videos as always
Aww really happy you liked it!
Really appreciate for you take filming of my work area with the local food. It look wonderful. The tour guy is also awesome to do the introduction. Look forward your all next video.
Thank you so much! We are really happy you like it!
So happy to see you guys enjoying Taiwan so much.. we have such wonderful memories from there.. I'm watching this video in small parts as we stop into a cafe for a quick lassi
I take a lot of Lassi Breaks hahaha
Ho U2 are so amazing with the result of professional video making. I absolutely love this video result. I have to say that i will be only 4 hours and then fly to Bali. When i come back i have 6 hour waiting to fly home in Vancouver BC Canada. I will find out if i can take some time in Taipei, Taiwan and eat some Tofu and vegetables because i am Vegan. I do hope that i can have some of there great food....................Namaste
Aww thank you so so much!
Hi, welcome to Taiwan, the haven of vegan !
Sorry , wrong spelling. Taiwan is the Heaven of vegan
Everything was familiar as before. Love it.
Another amazing video guys
Thank you!
Welcome to Taiwan!I wish you all a wonderful journey to every country!
I love your food tours on top of the already great content. Thanks though, now I am hungry! lol
Aww thanks. We actually like these ones with locals. I think it provides you guys with much more value
@@DivertLiving Absolutely! This is the experience I want when I come over. Yes, I will visit some tourists spots but I was to truly experience the food and people and culture when I visit. Thanks again for the best channel out there!! Safe travels
Thanks for help us understanding different countries
Of course! Thank you for watching!
Very different food indeed. Very Educational and Cultural.
Aww its so so good! We loved this experience
謝謝分享台灣;諸事順心,平安喜樂!
I’m Taiwanese, and I’m already getting jealous of that food!

Hello,I am a Taiwanese.Welcome to Taiwan,and there are some special place that you should visit.
Aww there are so many amazing places!
Escallion bread.... looks delicious
It is so so so good!
@@DivertLiving was it also buttery?
Hmmmm, stinky tofu is not that bad
I cant handle it
Most foreigner: Smells disgusted and taste bad.
Taiwanese: Smells bad but taste good.
TRUE Taiwanese: Smells GOOD and taste FANTASTIC.
I like it a lot
I guess it is similar to durian - somebody loves that, somebody hates that... and nothing in the middle :).
First time I smelled it in the street I threw up lol
I dont know if you are still in taiwan. But in taipei i had a full day of free tour from klook app. The tour consists of 3 different parts.
1) Taipei free walking tour historic route.
2) Taipei free walking tour golden age route.
3) Taipei free walking tour modern route.
It was lead by university students and its the most wonderful tour i ever taken in taipei part.
Where did you book this tour?
Wow! The tour guide is very professional and local. I, as a Taiwanese, has never tried to eat betel nuts😂
hahahah Yea its a very interesting thing!
The wet market in Taiwan is quite different from Bangkok and Hong Kong, it has clear opening hours. Morning markets closes around noon. Then by 3 pm, the evening markets open and close around 6. The morning and evening markets are in different locations too. I agree the wet markets in Taiwan are much cleaner than SE Asia. The only thing bother me is the cooked food and butcher shops may be located side by side instead of separated in different zones.
I didn’t think Taiwanese food would look like this.. looks very French and Italian to be honest. GREAT VIDEO guys! 👍🏼♥️
I know right ? If i remember it right when we took historic tour they said taiwan once colonised by portugal, maybe theyr got some influence from that:)
Divert Living that’s very interesting!!
鐵鍋上海生煎包真好吃！到台北一定要嘗嘗
Another great video.
Thank you so much!
Wow good video. Rare to see good Taiwan video
Aww thanks man! Means a lot! Tah spends tons of time on the editing so your feedback means a lot!
The steamed stinky tofu is one food Andrew Zimmern can't swallow, but you two were okay with it. It's true, even in California Asian communities, you will rarely find stinky tofu served without frying. Frying reduces the stinkiness and adds the crispy outer texture to the tofu.
This is true. Andrew Zimmern ate at the same establishment and couldn't stomach the wet stinky tofu. He was very clear about how it tasted and almost felt sick. Lol.
Welcome to Taiwan.
Thank you so so much!
Your time lapse shots and viewing spots are magnificent!
Aww thank you!
Haha so funny - Fig Newton 😂 the burger😋 yum... You guys are so bold and try everything. We also loved that about the India series 👍👍
Aww thank you so much! You have to try everything at least once!
'Milk tea' in Taiwan usually is with flavored powder. And the milk tea which is with milk, we usually specify it on menu or when we are ordering. You may see latte black tea which is with milk.
thats a great food tour 👍💕
It was amazing :)
We normally eat the bamboo shoots from this season with mayonnaise. Very refreshing.
That is so creative! We have never try something like that before
TAIWAN NO.1
I wanna go Taiwan but I don't have enough money and hard for get Visa. Have nice trip both of you from Việt Nam Friendly! 🇻🇳😁
Aww it is a little more expensive than the other countries in Asia
@@DivertLiving that's one of reason why I can't... 😅
Unknow -Vô Danh
My neighbours are all from Vietnam 🇻🇳 😆
@@vandamme6379They borrow money to go to labor export. They just wanna change their life to become better than in Việt Nam's countryside!
Your making me soooo hungry. :D
We hav 7 national parks. Go Taroko national park, is one of Taiwan's most beautiful sights（the continual rising of the mountains ). The name of country is The Republic of China. The main island is taiwan.
Aww its really a beautiful place!
Yeahh
If you get the chance, grab a bus to Yilan County (about 50 minutes away). In Jiaoxi there's an ice cream shop that specializes in hot chili ice cream. You can also buy scallions as tall as yourself. On your way there, you'll go through the Xueshan Tunnel. Only about 13 km long lol And there's the hot springs.
That sound so cool! Thank you so much!
There’s lots of those markets
Hahaha it's funny in the pineapple cake part.
Awesome vlog
Thank you so so much!
Wow interesting different veggies fruits i never seen in Philippines some of them... New subscriber from Philippines..
Aww thank you so much for watching!
your best video so far
The tropical food😁
Its amazing!
@@DivertLiving West and East Indies culinary infusion
Taiwan N'1
the areas that you've been are my hometown, when I was in junior high, i went to the tofu restaurant after school 🤣
hahahah have to love the Tofu!
I want to see the episode where y’all get married in Taiwan!
hahahah that would be great!
I like bamboo, either with soup or stirred fried with shredded pork!
So so so good!
That scallion pizza thing looked so tasty and so much better than the scallion pancake things we get here. Did they have any sauces with it? Not sure i'd ever try eating a soup dumpling whole again after getting burned in Flushing lol, was trying to be polite and not spit it out at the table.
Aww no i wish they gave us some sauce!
Haha i was surprised that the tour guide would tell them to eat it whole actually. Whenever my friends and I eat it we'll poke a hole in it first to let the soup out onto the spoon
@@girlshapedrobot That's how we normally do it too, poke a hole sip it slooowly then eat the rest!
First impression, i was like, why the hxll did you guys put that cutie dog on the table? 17:12, and a spit second, lmao.
The time lapse is amazing, and also I have a question, what camera are you using?
Thank you! All our camera gear is linked below the video :)
Love it
P'cake is amazing but you need to get the more expensive kind. That your looked amazing
Nice. watched a few vlogs about that food tour pretty interesting stuff. Are you guys planning to travel out of Taipei?
Aww no we didnt have time because of our unexpected trip
i like your vidios but sin in missing a bit about prices and hotel rooms and prices otherwise hunters vidior is mega good love to see nature areas and stories of the countries in visit
Hey can i ask you what is the different when u eat taiwanese food in taiwan and eat taiwanese in your own country? I mean maybe in taiwan u can more learn about taiwan culture or maybe anything that makes u remember when eat food in taiwan, pls and were thnks
Photography is very cool ... what kind of camera?
Just started watching your show and have been enjoying it very much. I do have a complaint right out the door. At 0:26 listen till 0:33 and tell me what you hear? I am hoping it is not you both talking bad saying f*****G America. I know it could be a mistake but it is not. I still like your show and will keep watching and subscribe because I dig travel vlogs. If not for Globe Trekker and technology I don't think we would have any of this to show how wonderful other nations are. Keep your heart kind, your feet on the path, your eyes on the sky, and show love. Peace.
Its not use speaking its another girl on the tour speaking. of course i Love America haha and she said fucking American. Not America because of how i described the food 😂
I don’t want Understand why your not fat, 😂😂😂😂😂, you eat all the time, Be Safe, 😉👍👍👍👍👍
hahah we do love food!
Nice video
Thank you so much!
Great video! Where did you guys booked the foodtour? I’m going next month to Taipei, so excited!!
Aww we hope you have a great trip! The tour is linked below the video:)
Loved the places you went to. Any chance you can put put in where exactly are those and the prices? Thanks soo much, planning to go there soon 😍😍
Hello, Jimmy and Tah. I came across your vlog and my interest was piqued because I lived in Taiwan for 3 years. I like the way you move around Taipei (although wondering if you'll leave Taipei for other wonderful areas of Taiwan..) I am really writing to urge you to put in a disclaimer somewhere that bettlenut can be an addictive health risk. It rots the teeth and gets you high. If you try it once, sure no big deal. But there are many uninformed and ignorant young people out there that would see you do this, and not research it. I worked as a teacher there and teens are the number one targets. Please do your part in not spreading it as a thing to do, but rather to avoid instead.
Where/What is the first market you guys visited?
12:22 16:51 17:53 VERY NICE
What is the name of the tour company? And did the tour guide did a great job?
We think they did an amazing job! Its all linked in the description of the video:)
Likes your video, i'm new subscriber :) keep it up, very informative and feels like we already there
Thank you so much!
Taiwanese foods are so delicious but every races has its own definition and taste bud ,but mostly only in the morning you can see selling in public market but in the afternoon nothing closed...
Aww its so so good!
best part 13:58
I wonder what's the name of the shops you went? ❤ Very nice contents btw ❤
Its a great tour😍
How can I avail it? Tnx
ชื่อตลาดอะไรหรอคะ ถ้ามีโอกาสจะได้ไปเดินเที่ยว
What month did you guys visit Taiwan? When is not raining season? I want to visit there next year.
We were there in August
A good video but I still prefer self exploring than guided tours. Taiwanese are very fond of showcasing food items, fruits and other eatables. When I was in Taiwan in 2000 and during a guided tour, this was same, showcasing fruits and foods.
Aww yea we like to mix it up and do a little of both!
You guys got a lot of fans! You don’t really need a tour guide, but i still liked the video. If you hit up some of your subscribers and local fans to show you around I think it would make the video less ‘touristy’.
What's the name of the dumpling restaurant that's towards the end of your video?
looks like 高記(kao-chi)？not sure
Some weird food you tried there. Does those boba teas have any nutritional value? Surprised you guys didn’t try their famous beef stew noodle
