You cannot miss the sea food stir-fry on Cijin. It is one of the iconic feature of Cijin. It is fresh, delicious and affordable such as clams, crabs, squids and fish...etc.
the taiwanese bread literally is called "twins" because it's 2 bread stuck together and fried. One of my favorites. Usually it is sold in the winter by vendors who in the summer sell other treats like "frog laying eggs", 青蛙下蛋, which basically are tapioca balls in ice.
Your last dessert was "xuehua bing", or "snowflake ice", a uniquely Taiwanese version of shaved ice where the ice is actually frozen condensed milk, and always comes loaded with heaps of mango. Super iconic in Taiwan so I'm glad you got to try it!
About the green-filling donut , there are two kind bun in Taiwan , One is Sweet , and another is salty , But most of the buns are salty, filled with meat or vegetables .
Surrounded by the sea, Taiwan is rich in marine resources and rich in seafood. Seafood has also become one of the must-eat dishes when you come to Taiwan. The city of Kaohsiung is close to the sea, and it is also an important city for seafood delicacies. 16:00 it's not seaweed it's call Chinese sauerkraut 😅
@@TalesFromOurPocket Some beef noodle shops also put sauerkraut on the table, mix well with the noodles and eat ,Some steamed buns also contain sauerkraut, which is a popular ingredient
Hi, if you are still in Kaohsiung, I would recommend going to Fo Guang Shan Buddha Museum, you will need to take a bus from Kaohsiung Zuoying Station. This place is awesome.
The green-filling donut you bought is called pickled mustard green bun. The vendor showed you the sign without English. This was why you bought a surprising donut.
you have to try the seafood especially vist harbour in taiwan. the seafood is fresh and some cheap.Kaoshiung is one of the biggest port for business in Taiwan.i google that there is the 18th largest container port in the world. 😊. my one of favorite sweet is you ate donut and twin desserts which tastes simple and pure. have a good trip.😊
It's faster/shortcut to the Lighthouse if you just turn right after getting off the ferry. Walk a bit (without the long tunnel journey) & go up those steps to reach the top. From the Lighthouse, it's just a short walk to the Fort which has nothing except walls & empty rooms (?). To go to the beach, just keep to the 7-11 path after getting off the ferry & go through the food stalls.
I was born in Kaohsiung and I'm 57 years old, and I will tell you the actual history. Cijin was originally not an island, but a peninsula connected to the "Hongmaogang" at its southern tip. In the 1970s, in order to open the second entrance/exit of Kaohsiung Port, Cijin and "Hongmaogang" were cut off. Today's "Cijin Island" was formed.And now "Hongmaogang" was moved because Kaohsiung Port need more piers.
What a great day in Kaohsiung. I love hanging out in Kaohsiung, when it's not too hot that is. The bun on the house is called "twins", and it essentially is the Taiwanese donut. I'm not sure if I missed any episodes, but you guys were really close to Caishan, where a short hike would allow you to see a bunch of Taiwanese macaque monkeys.
Hi friends, Why don’t you inform me when you arrived at my place ? At least I can be your guide and treat you to a big meal. Many of my RU-vid videos are places you have walked, especially Kaohsiung. I wish you a pleasant journey and smooth shooting.
The Taiwanese seem pretty unphased by what's going on. They believe they'll have plenty of notice if China actually makes a move, because they'll see them coming. We hope they're right!
