Alright guys.
We are up before the sun today and it is for a really good reason.
We've been hearing about Taiwanese breakfast at this one particular spot and we're going
to go check it out.
The MRT just opened and now it is time to go.
Yes, apparently this restaurant opens at five thirty in the morning but the MRT didn't start
running until 6 am so we had to wait.
Now we can finally venture out.
Exit five.
How excited are you for breakfast?
Well now that I've actually finally woken up I'm quite excited.
Ready to chow down.
Chow down.
Let's go.
So apparently we're not the only ones.
So we found the restaurant.
It is called Fu Hang Dou Jiang (阜杭豆漿).
Hopefully I am pronouncing that right.
And we had to wait in line about twenty to thirty minutes and that was at six thirty
in the morning so I can't imagine what it is like when you come later in the morning.
But anyways we ordered.
Now ordering was a bit tricky because their menu is not in English so I had to do some
research in advance and kind of show up with the names written out.
But now I'm going to show you what we ordered and tell you what it is called in case you
want to try the same things.
Alright, let's check it out.
And of course we have two bowls of soy milk because that is what they specialize in and
that is called Dou Jiang (豆漿).
One is hot and one is cold.
One is like piping hot.
This one is like boiling so we're going to be sampling those.
Let's have a look.
So yeah, it is just soy milk.
I've never drank milk with a spoon but that is a first.
So we asked for both of our soy milks to be sweetened so that is good.
Because who doesn't love sugar.
And I'm trying the cold one now.
So let's see.
I don't think I've ever had soy milk before.
Are you serious?
Never.
Never?
Why am I blowing on the milk?
It is already cold.
My gosh.
Haha.
Mmmm.
Wow.
It does taste like tofu.
Does it?
Soy milk tastes like tofu.
Yeah.
But it is sweet.
And refreshing.
That is weird.
Does it have like a bit of dessert like taste almost?
Like sweet tofu.
Yeah, first time trying this.
It is not bad.
I think this could grow on me the more I have it.
Okay so we're going to break into the mystery roll.
Yeah, so take a look down here.
I'm just going to snap it in half.
It feels dense I know there is definitely something inside.
Oh, woah.
Oh it is super syrupy.
Okay.
Woah.
Maybe that wasn't the best idea.
Haha.
Look can you see the syrup?
Yeah.
Look at all of that.
I'm going to guess that is pineapple.
But who knows.
Mmmmm.
Is it sweet?
It is very sweet.
You know what?
It tastes like a sesame.
Sweetened sesame sauce.
Not like a soy base sesame sauce but like pure sesame.
Mmmm.
That is like so good.
So sweet.
And everything we're trying so far has been really sweet.
So I kind of like that we're getting a big of a sugar high this morning.
Okay.
That looks like a sweet pastry.
You can really taste the sesame seeds on the outside too.
I didn't mention that but.
I'm sure you'll be able to tell.
Mmmm.
You know what I mean about the sesame paste?
Doesn't that taste like sesame to you?
And honey maybe?
Yeah, it has got like kind of a sesame honey kind of taste in the middle.
It is good.
It is like a really dense bread.
Yeah.
And it is kind of flakey but oily at the same time.
Do you like it?
Yeah.
So next up we're having what I believe is the Shao Bing (燒餅 - 烧饼) so it looks
like a sandwich but it is basically a wheat cake and it is stuffed with egg.
An omelette, chives.
Yeah, it looks like a sandwich.
Yeah.
Omelette sandwich.
And it is really sticky on top so I think it has like some kind of sweet glaze.
But let's find out for sure.
You know what?
I'm starting to realize that in Taiwan there is a major sweet tooth.
A lot of the food is sweet and I'm enjoying that.
Is it?
I'm really enjoying this.
Yeah.
Is it also savory too?
Yeah, it is like a fried omelette so that is greasy and salty but then you've got the
sweetness of the bread so it is a nice combination.
Mmmm.
Alright, my turn to try.
Mmmmm.
Oh wow.
Mmmm.
You know what this reminds me of?
Like whenever I go back home and this is only about once a year my Dad will cook up a big
omelet and we'll have some healthy bread that has been toasted and usually I put like a
bit of jam on the bread and then I put the omelet on top of the toast and eat it.
That is a weird combination but I've seen him do it.
And it kind of reminds me of this.
Like the sweetness of the bread and then the nice omelette.
It is just like a nice contrast in combination.
This last one is either Yutiah or Youtiao (油條 - 油条) please let me know in the
comments.
We're butchering these names I'm sure pretty fiercely.
Um, at first glance it kind of reminds me of a bit of a porras that we had in Spain.
Like those giant sized kind of churros like things.
Yeah.
And I have to say it is like super light in the hand.
It looks a lot bigger than what it is.
It is really flimsy and light.
So I'm going to give that a try.
So it is like a deep-fried dough stick and all we need right now is that thick Spanish
hot chocolate and we're set.
Oh.
Okay.
It tastes like a bit greasy and salty as opposed to being sweet.
And yeah it kind of a nice contrast to all of the sweet dishes we've been having this
morning.
This one is a little saltier.
Yeah.
I'm going to try another bite.
And you know what?
When they served it up to us they actually put it in the sandwich.
Yeah.
So I think you can probably put both of them together.
And it has got a like a kind of flaky buttery taste as well to it.
It is greasy on the outside and I quite like it.
Yeah.
So let's reassemble that sandwich.
Have another bite why don't you?
Okay.
So now I've got like a monster sandwich.
Let's try that.
Mmmmm.
It adds a bit of crunchiness to it.
Yeah?
And a little more salt and greasiness.
Mmmm.
Okay.
Yeah, it doesn't have a whole lot of flavor on its own I have to say.
It just tastes greasy.
Yeah.
And it is like really flaky and like light.
It kind of reminds me of a croissant a little bit but it is not something I would want to
eat on its own.
I can see why she would put it in the sandwich.
But even better that cup of hot chocolate.
Haha.
That muddy Spanish hot chocolate.
As if we're not getting enough sweets as it is.
Maybe you can dip it in the soy milk.
Do you think that is how it is done?
Why don't you try it?
I'll do it in yours.
Yours is warm.
Watch everyone is going to be shaking their heads.
Nooo.
That is way better.
That is way better?
See.
That is how I would recommend having that.
I have no idea of just how you're supposed to do it but that is how we're rolling.
Yep.
You're going in for another bite.
That is how we roll.
Maybe we're creating something new in Taiwan.
I highly doubt it but.
Well that line is now wrapping around the building.
We had to wait twenty to thirty minutes.
It is at least two to three times as long now.
That is probably going to take like forty five to an hour.
Sure glad we came when we did.
Yeah.
Come early!
So are you feeling ready to take on Taipei after that breakfast?
Yeah, I've got my sugar high.
I've got you know like my saltiness with the egg.
So I'm ready to go.
And in terms of price point that was a hundred and thirty five Taiwanese dollars so it worked
out to just over two US dollars per person.
So really cheap, really tasty food.
And yeah, I can see why there is a big line.
And the one thing I wish we could have tried was something I think called Dan Bing (蛋餅)
which is basically a pancake with the omelet stuffed inside.
We noticed some other people having that and we're like ooh that looked good.
And I also saw people having some kind of porridge that I just didn't know the name
of it.
Yeah, anyways we ate enough.
I mean we're full now but yeah there is other things to try though.
Yeah, so if you want to find this place straight out of exit five and here you've got the market.
You just go down this way up to the second floor and you'll see the lines.
Yeah, and don't forget to come early.
Yeah.
