      Speaking English is a clue that they probably know tourists can afford a few dollars more if they're from Canada, USA, Switzerland, Norway, Japan, and Korea.
      All of these countries are expensive to live in no matter where you go in that region.

    I just watched this today. And then I watched Netflix's Street Food and GRACE WAS FEATURED IN THE TAIWAN EPISODE. It featured her and her family's story. I loved it. She has a great story and I definitely wanna try her family's fish head soup in Chiayi.

      @@Ay-sd1sj not really, the first Taiwan ep had $29 as the highest and there were truffles in the xlb.
      I've also had truffle (oil? not sure) xlb, but in Elmhurst. I don't think they were even $29.

      If they do hot pot, they have to do it in China. There are just too many varieties in China alone, plus Chongqing hotpot has to be enjoyed in Chongqing.

    Lowkey crushing on Chef Chen right now, she has such a lovely attitude and a beautiful, unique voice. And that FOOD! It looks so, so insanely good! By far the single meal that watching Worth It has made me want to try the most. Gubami is absolutely on my bucket list now.

    I agree with Steven, i took a pillow from my moms when I moved in with my dad and it’s one of my best comforts, it’s hard for me to sleep without cuddling it.
    And yes I do wash it.
