just like the NBA all-star game and here we of the tofu next up turbid y'all ready for this haha now your team in China traders as a sheet over 200 kilometer being the PDS taco you don't go and quit eat alright turkey rice I love how this soup with all this stuff they were like not you still need some turkey rice that's right it was one thing we learned here in Taiwan you cannot leave a restaurant hungry they will assault you with food in the most lovingly way possible yeah hmm it's just jerking meat and fat on a bowl of rice it's great if you weren't an adventurous eater this would seem like a scary bowl of food hmm but it all just kind of blends into this big soft hug I don't know it tastes nice you get a kind taste that's exactly how you say in manner in them really good eat right good taste yeah how to me good eat good taste yeah what's bread the kindness once I finish this meal it will be so long until I get to eat this again and that makes me sad I know this whole trip is actually just it's the worst that super was incredible in the rainbow of soup to stew this was somewhere in the middle and like the stoop stupid yeah so before we get to our next soup decided to get some treats at the garden night market Tainan is my favorite treats at night market it is a peanut roll with ice cream and cilantro what cilantro and a dessert I guess it makes sense we put mint in desserts and that's just Oh either green leaf think of that cheers Cheers Wow I like dessert cilantro so our next soup is actually going to be hotpot how bout that archaeologists have found pots from 2000 years ago that may have been used to make an early iteration of hotpot these were found in the unhu' Province of China Wow old hotpot there hop-hop for me everybody Thanksgiving in the Lim family we always always always eat hotpot it would make sense that soup was one of the oldest things humans ate yeah just water doesn't stuff in there and eat it tomorrow hotpot you go where are we going we are going to my you noodle sauce I'll go out to eat some beef soup as I'm talking about beef soup get that hot pot throw some beef in there throw some soup in there throw some veggies in

rice it's free for all the customers location CB da house on team de-iced one color I think antioxidant no high pay pay one load often JP get back [Music] we be in a lot of beef on this show but this is some of the prettiest beam I've ever seen the color is ridiculous whole brood long this is one of the coolest things it's like t snow globe and it's got the net you know hey Cheers hmm want to start with this one let's do it let's hold Oh cat cheers Steven one two Wow going in one mmm Oh No this smell is incredible Cheers oh that's nice bean we're just getting to eat a really nice steak yeah with soup and you get to eat it the second it's done cooking mmm I'm gonna try the same piece of meat this time but now dip it shabu shabu shabu that rocks hang in there yeah all right absolutely one - whoa three like you're baptizing the meat the dip is awesome okay that's doing that right there's two great ways to enjoy beef you either cook it very briefly or you cook it a really long time this is the best of both worlds - quick cook beef and also the super long confit because the soup is a 10 to 12 hour deep in beef bone soup but enough about beef pork break or break mm-hmm at first this did not make sense but it's because the beef is so precious it breaks up the flow so I don't just crush my plate of beef all in one bite like I want to well and also this bowl of rice is bringing me more comfort than my body pillow what I got the same one for over 10 years it's hard to sleep without it Wow no I wash it that explains a lot about here it's like a teddy bear we all have that like item yeah but now mine is in my parents attic because they stopped sleeping with it after the age of eight why would you give up something that's so comfortable all right we're gonna have the broth now we've finally reached the soup part of the meal whoo the smell though tears whoo that is nice it's not so beefy actually it's got like Rudy flavor yeah apples or something this is the best way to close out this meal yeah it's nice a gentle landing it's like when you have a delicious sauce you want a piece of bread to mop it up top the sauce here you just drink the sauce hot pot that hot pot was so good okay so we've come to Taichung for our final soup but before we have that we're gonna have some cold drinks that's right we're going to 10r in one of my favorite places in the States so lots of be having it here in Taiwan where it's actually from so we've got long tea and a black tea boba confession time I'm not the biggest fan of boba that's fine I just eating while drinking I don't isn't that what soup is soup is drinking while eating it's completely different don't get it twisted Cheers mmm that's what I like unsweetened nice iced tea that's all I want instead of another soup fact we're actually gonna have a boba fact lower-fat boba tea was invented in the 1980s in Thai trauma Oh some genius out here putting boba and milky together their controversies around who actually invented bubble milk tea there's multiple reports of different people so interesting we're now on our way to goo ba me where we're going to see chef Chen to try her beef noodle soup the iconic dish of Taiwan we've had it a few times off-camera so far just for our crew meals and such and it's usually a very inexpensive dish five or six US dollars equivalent but today's is going to be a little bit more deluxe it's gonna cost around 30 US dollars which is a lot for beef noodle soup but it's gonna be really good Ruba me is beef noodles in Taiwanese dialect why do you think taiwan loves their beef noodle soup so much it's fast and also its luxury you have a big bowl of noodle soup and meat I never really see restaurants can do all three good I want to do things the best so when I do noodles I want to find out the best formula to eat test with different flours for almost six months I would say we won the noodles to be authentic in the middle but also the outside can absorb a little bit the suit we use the Japanese Wagyu beef shank and also we have a condiment of smoked bone marrow and on top of a we have some shabu shabu of the beef shank to give two different textures of the meat what is your background in cooking like where did you come from I learned in Paris I travelled to stay so a little bit and then I come back I started my French fresh run ten years ago very fine dining it was my dream restaurants buddies in Thai truck is very weird I think Taiwan people they like something casual I want to do something similar and now I have a bar AB noodle shop I was just trying to do something I like it looks like very refined but I didn't do it on purpose I just tried to make it good and then it becomes this way look at this that's not soup we have tofu skin hooked in some of the beef stock this is the radish with lemon and olive oil zucchini confit and goose fat some kind of green bean and beef mushroom deliciousness I know there's a lot of delicious stuff in front of us I cannot wait for the soup right now but I will be patient [Music] roll along hold on the soup that is damn good green bean oh I did not think that was gonna taste like that it's a smoky porky green bean tofu skin that was super juicy and you know Cheers that's the best one no this is the best no no no no I'm done zucchini confit in goose fat every time I eat something green I expect it to taste like a crisp vegetable then it tastes like a fatty animal this is awesome Wow finally the beef Oh ready to eat some dude in the soup right now oh thank you no this thing I can't believe this I can't believe this yeah I can't believe this this is a $30 bold soup broth Cheers [Music] okay I didn't think a beef tastes can be refreshing yeah problem yeah let's do the choice cut meat on top Wow very flavorful beep okay jeez I literally just ate a pastrami sandwich in one bite yeah and the juices of the soup just bursting out inca have some come come come [Music] there's always those are great noodles springy chewy look at that beef Wow holy crap I didn't think I was gonna be that soft what yeah it's like softer than happy it's softer than it's somewhere be kidding me okay let's add the bone marrow this is like buttering already buttered bread [Music] Wow including all the steaks we be in this beef best beef taste I've ever tasted the best part I get to eat noodles the whole time it's like usually a steak yours eating steak pretty fun but okay noodles the whole time yeah I've had a lot of beef in those two before and it's never bad it's always satisfying and comforting but
