Welcome back to our Taiwanese Street Food tour series. This is episode 3. In today’s video, we are focusing on delicious MOUNTAIN cuisine in Maokong, just outside of Taipei City.
We start our day at Bitan Scenic area (Xindian Station) to eat a traditional Taiwanese meal for breakfast. We ordered rice noodle soup 米粉湯, braised tofu 滷豆腐, crispy ribs 脆骨 (which were not crispy at all), and boiled radish 蘿蔔. The food was simple and fresh, and very affordable at 140 NTD (USD $4.66).
It was then time to hike one of our favorite trails in Taipei known as Yinhe Trail. Our taxi from Xindian Station to the trailhead was 175 NTD (USD $5.83). There is a cave/temple/waterfall you can visit and continue along the trail to reach Maokong, which used to grow the most tea for Taipei. There are still lots of tea farms dotted along the mountains. In Maokong, there are many tea houses and restaurants serving food and snacks infused with tea. We ordered a set meal that included tea fried rice, tea smoked chicken, mountain style shrimp, egg tofu with tea leaves and a chicken and mushroom soup. The entire set came to 1000 NTD (USD $33.29). For dessert, we had an oolong tea popsicle.
From Maokong, we made our way back to Taipei via Maokong Gondola using the Crystal Cabin. The Crystal Cabin has a glass floor to allow 360° views of the tea fields, rolling mountains and Taipei 101 in the distance. The gondola is easy to use using EasyCard costing 100 NTD (USD $3.33).

Will do!! Thanks!
The best country to eat and eat and eat. Taiwan #1!! ❤ Watching from Manila Philippines! Keep safe, Luke!!
You stay safe and healthy as well. Thanks so much!
My son and his friends took us to that restaurant when we were there 10 years ago. That chicken soup was one of the best things I've ever eaten in my life. You even sat at the same table we did. We took a regular gondola. I don't think I could have done the glass bottom lol - I have issues w/ heights.
That's amazing! The chicken soup was lovely, especially since it was quite cold that day. The regular cabins are what we usually take too, and they have just as nice of views!
Hey Luke. Thanks for sharing your adventures with us,this country is beautiful and natural
Thanks Dwight!

Taiwan is a dream, a beautiful expression of Chinese culture. What China could have been without the communism.

My family & I were at Maokong San a few years ago and had lunch at the same Tea Restaurant. We even had the same dishes as you guys. Awesome food! I loved the wild ferns....so appetising! 😋

The scenery is the beutifull...... Cheers

The meal with that view looks so restorative and delicious. The fried prawns looked excellent!
Thanks! That’s my childhood home town. I grew up near there with 20-25 minute walk! Before I moved over seas! Now I don’t have to hound you to go there now!👍
Your awesome food video really makes me hungry for Taiwan/Chinese Food.
Both places are amazing and highly featured on social media especially Instagram. I appreciate the food inspiration in this video. I’ve been to Maokong many times but have not dined there. Definitely on my list of things to do for the next visit 🙌💯⛰🍲

I grew up at Guangming street in my childhood, l’m surprised to see you introduce the rice noodle shop. It has been opening more than 30 years at least, and good to know you like it.
It's got a great local taste and feel!

Hii
My Grandparents live right next to Bitan. I was there earlier last year, can't wait to go back soon.
Great great episode! Last time my family and I were in Taipei we visited the zoo and took the gondola to Maokong but it started raining so the views weren't so good. But next time I definitely want to take this hike. So incredibly BEAUTIFUL!
Hi to those construction workers (?) waving behind ya. Coronavirus needs to go away so I can resume my Taiwan planning.
We will get through it!
I found them at 21:50

I love Taiwan and especially Taipei and surroundings. I especially love the night markets, the food, the hot springs at Beitou, the temples, the people, the nature and the music the garbage trucks are playing ;-). I also like Maokong, but didnt know about that cave temple with a waterfall. Looks really beautiful and I think for that alone I will have to go back to Taiwan when the pandemic allows me to do so. Thanks a lot Sabrina and Luke for sharing so much of your second home with us.
That hike looked awesome guys! It looks really pretty there, the food looks great too but the scenery is gorgeous.
Yes definitely the views were incredible!
Well done on the hike up, but what a trip down....... fantastic photography from you both. I just can't get my head around how you consistently make such great content. Amazing!!!!!
That meal in Maokong looked amazing but you could NEVER get me in that gondola car with a glass floor!!!!
You seem a little surprised the food was so good up there on the mountain. Great view and fantastic waterfall. Did you know that the Taiwanese national food is Snickers bar, hahaha. Thank you Luke and Sabrina
Yes, well these restaurants can be a little touristy so we were unsure if the quality was going to be good and it was! Thanks for watching and take care
*Hello Martin and Sabrina . I love watching your videos. I find them so entertaining and teeming with new words for me as an english learner. Your method of describing foods is awesome and also your english is a little bit easy to understand. Now my goal is to watch all of your videos since the creation of your channel and i will in few days. thanks again for such amazing content. (Said from Morocco).*
Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy all our videos ☺️
