Well done Richard, enjoyed it very much. Nice scenery and from the looks of it, fine cool weather too. However, i must take my hat off you for your fermented tofu adventure! I cannot even go near it because of strong smell. I have yet to overcome it. An acquired taste I guessed.
I can also recommend another thing to do, end your trip in Beitou, book a hot spring bath and take a hot spring, they offer day bath as well as optional staying a night at the hot spring hotel, although this experience is getting expensive as many Beitou hot spring hotels/resorts has done up and improve to 5 stars standards....
I don't know Chinese. I've probably picked up 30-40 characters watching Taiwan TH-camrs with CC. I now know volcano (火山). Only a couple of thousand to go!!!!!! Unfortunately I won't live that long.
I'm usually not a prude when it comes to food, Richard, but the one thing that I really can't handle is fermented tofu. I'm almost surprised because I love all fermented foods; tempeh, kimchi, natto... I guess it really is the smell that turns me off.
Well done guys! I am sure you enjoyed yourselves. The wind was so strong on top of the mountain, I thought the three of you might lift off and take flight.
I am from Malaysia 🇲🇾 We just went to Xiaoyoukeng few weeks ago but we didn't hike. Thanks for the sharing and I love that ice-cream so much 🤭 I tried pineapple 🍍 It is really delicious with natural taste ❤
Like the misty feeling we dont get here in Spore. As for the stinky tofu...argh! I wont get near it even if u pay me S$1K😓. Many yrs back they hv it at Chinatown Complex, I threw out everything I ate for lunch upon smelling it! 😫😫
Hi Richard! Was wondering when you would go 台北 and do a 陽明山 video! This was a great video as always. Great to see Andrew and Hugo again! Especially Hugo with his characteristic double hiking poles! Looking forward to your next video. And I do wish you could do 2 videos per week!
I remember first time i had ordered lamb steak with blue cheese in New Zealand decades ago. I called the girl angrily and complained about the quality of the food.
3:16 - LOL sorry... when you first saw your friends and said “好久不见" (long time no see), I misheard it as "how's your Fujian?" (asking him how his Taiwanese was).🤣😂 Cuz, you said that in the Westerner way, my brain was still hearing English Words ... 😂🤣😂 ps - I found that Boba Bread at Breadtalk in Singapore 😁😁
At the end of this video, you probably meant to say ‘fight for mental health’, not ‘fight against mental health’. That’s what eating too much stinky tofu does to the brain!
Hey, I have not spoken to you for a while. Good to see you doing this. Your perspective has been quite objective in doing comparisons of different places. I like to see your take on TW vs. CN.
Nice clear view from the top, in the beginning of your video especially after the typhoon. All the pollution washed away. Japan was also hit by 2 typhoons within 2 weeks. But the 2nd Typhoon wasnt as strong as the 1st. Heavy rain hit South of Japan, as usual, they get hit really bad before it went to Shanghai. Dont know much abt Taiwan. Thanks for your interesting hike videos n history of Taiwan.🙏🗾 Oh my favorite, Fermented tofu.
Unless they don't make it anymore... But you should have tried 臭膏 (stinky paste) at Dai's. As you can probably tell by its name, this stinky tofu no longer resembles tofu. It has disintegrated into some slimy gooey paste after the long fermentation process. Edited to add that 臭膏 is not on the menu. You'd have to ask for it.
真難想像有老外喜歡臭豆腐，而且還吃的很自在！
太太太不容易了！向您致敬！
謝謝
My favorite morning show! keep it going, Richard! take care there you guys!
Thanks! Will do!
great to see you hiking again in Taiwan and including Hugo, your capable foil
台灣北部地區爬山，建議一大早，因為中午以後，易起霧。
北橫拉拉山神木和太平山更適合喜歡爬山的人。
Well done Richard, enjoyed it very much. Nice scenery and from the looks of it, fine cool weather too. However, i must take my hat off you for your fermented tofu adventure! I cannot even go near it because of strong smell. I have yet to overcome it. An acquired taste I guessed.
Thanks 👍 Actually the smell wasn't too bad. Hugo acts as the canary in the coal mine as I am immune. Even he didn't complain!
👌👍🏻nice show ! Richard.
I can also recommend another thing to do, end your trip in Beitou, book a hot spring bath and take a hot spring, they offer day bath as well as optional staying a night at the hot spring hotel, although this experience is getting expensive as many Beitou hot spring hotels/resorts has done up and improve to 5 stars standards....
If I do it will be off camera. TH-cam is not ready for 3 old men in a hot spring!
I don't know Chinese. I've probably picked up 30-40 characters watching Taiwan TH-camrs with CC. I now know volcano (火山). Only a couple of thousand to go!!!!!! Unfortunately I won't live that long.
Taiwan is a beautiful country. ❤️ 🇹🇼

Actually, it wasn't that smelly. Or maybe I'm immune these days?
@@AsiaHikelopedia You do get used to smelly smells... so I'm not so surprised.
Chaoling Historical Trail Manchao Festival is just coming next month. You can prepare for that. It is the best moment to climb.
Love the feeling of being in the clouds at mountainous places. Something that I’ll never get to experience in Singapore 🙁
Nice view Richard👍👍👍ur die hard fans fm Singapore😁
Well done guys! I am sure you enjoyed yourselves. The wind was so strong on top of the mountain, I thought the three of you might lift off and take flight.
It was fun!
Great video! It was also really heartwarming to hear 阿姨们 chatting in the background at the 臭豆腐 place. Missed that feeling so much.
I am from Malaysia 🇲🇾

Richard is superb , just like going on a tour with him every week , the man is awesome , i missed him yet i never felt his absence
Yes! multiple vehicles are the best strategy for everyone to get involved in a non-loop hike!
Actually, this one can be done pretty easily on public transport! Details are in the description.
Stinky,臭豆腐！
天啊你好厲害！這家臭豆腐已經比平常的臭了，你竟然還吃涼拌的，我朋友推薦這家給我還跟我說不要點涼拌的臭豆腐😂你好厲害👍
但這家炸臭豆腐真的好吃😋
七星山非常美～上次在芒草季的時候爬，風景很棒！
3個大男人變成3個大男孩XD
"All alive still."🤣
This is how you talk to your dearest friends.
Woww ... Awesome 🇲🇾
A 老外 eating & enjoying stinky tofu, even many Chinese would run away from stinky tofu 😂
😋
A nice hike Richard and with old friends . Tofu is an acquired taste i believe and i haven't really tried it but you never know :-)
Tofu itself doesn't have much taste to acquire, but the fermented stuff in next level.
影片中不論是爬山或吃的，看起來都心曠神怡，非常棒！
謝謝你！
獨臭之家。Wonderful stinky Cabin or Skunk Hut........It's really pretty cool
Hi Richard! Was wondering when you would go 台北 and do a 陽明山 video! This was a great video as always. Great to see Andrew and Hugo again! Especially Hugo with his characteristic double hiking poles! Looking forward to your next video. And I do wish you could do 2 videos per week!
Me too, but the subtitles take up too much of my time!
Glad I finally have a characteristic anything! Those poles and my boots have saved me many times.
That raw stinky tofu blow my mind XD
It's good!
You make me hungry when you having stinky tofu.
Thanks Richard, I love this stinky Saturday in Taiwan Taipei 👍🤠
颱風剛離開不久常常有「颱風尾」你們在七星山遇到的風我們會這麼稱呼它。
Hugo好強，踏出人生在台灣的一大步，當然理查N.O.1是無庸置疑的，祝福你們！
出發前 天是清的 10:30am前上到山頂 七星山上雲團還不會擋到台北盆地
Amazing hike ends with stinky toufu.
The best ending!
Kudos to you, Richard, that raw stinky tofu is really beyond my stomach's reach.
8:47 I can't believe it gets that windy there.....no black doggie followed you guys this time?
No dog, just lots of wind!
爬山過程拍的很舒服~很舒服的山
因為你勇敢吃了 臭豆腐我給你...讚....
謝謝

一個古老文化大學傳說, 在冬天想翹課的學生可以等老師點名以後, 利用濃霧從教室後面的窗戶溜走
可惜又是白牆但Hugo回歸了
Haha!
I wasn't used to abuse from him, but quickly recovered!
別這樣啦~林森北也有很多很棒的餐廳跟影院
Does Taiwan have non dodgy Massage Parlors? Asking for a friend.
Yes. Blind people massage!
Great video. Thanks for good view and food journey. You are guru in Taiwan.
Long time no see~ Hugo😄
Long time no see Richard!
3:16 - LOL sorry... when you first saw your friends and said “好久不见" (long time no see), I misheard it as "how's your Fujian?" (asking him how his Taiwanese was).🤣😂 Cuz, you said that in the Westerner way, my brain was still hearing English Words ... 😂🤣😂
ps - I found that Boba Bread at Breadtalk in Singapore 😁😁
Nice! But I never saw it when I was in Sing.
At the end of this video, you probably meant to say ‘fight for mental health’, not ‘fight against mental health’. That’s what eating too much stinky tofu does to the brain!
Haha! Someone noticed!
I liked the fried stinky tofu, but I agree, it's an acquired taste.
What phone are you using?
Just a crappy mid-range Samsung
@@AsiaHikelopedia haha I'm using a redmi but yours looks really nice.
難以想像 你敢吃涼拌臭豆腐
Having scallion pancake in the bush 😋 what a nice breakfast
Yes it was!
您去的那裡是狐仙修練的地方。
你們真勇敢，那麼臭的臭豆腐！
陽明山的冷水坑步道很美很好爬
有看到Richard在登山借問站詢問雲南扁螢幼蟲的文，但我自己有點意外竟然是在七星山小油坑步道上遇到的
厲害👍還敢吃臭豆腐
😋臭漢堡好吃
Hey, I have not spoken to you for a while. Good to see you doing this. Your perspective has been quite objective in doing comparisons of different places. I like to see your take on TW vs. CN.
😎❤️🇹🇼‼️
七星山上，常常有雲霧
Bad weather at the top of mountain, but it is another type of beauty.
True
讚👍
Such a fun video to watch. Thanks, Richard!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Hi Richard 好酒不见
Thanks for the nice introduction of 阳明山!
You are welcome！
陽明山下的石牌就有戴家臭豆腐分店
謝謝。下次我知道
Why not
Nice. Stay safe Richard. We are waiting for your video every week here in Singapore.
Hiking is my favourite thing to do. Especially in Taiwan. I've hiked Yangmingshan before but not this part. Next time I'm there!
You should! It's a nice hike, but brutal when it's hot.
Nice video Richard. Just a quick question I noticed you had a mask on throughout your hike. Is that compulsory in Taipei or just personal preference?
Compulsory at the moment, even when outside hiking. Which I think is a bit silly. But them's the rules.
The tofu burger looks interesting. Yes, a VERY BIG thumbs-up for eating the “raw” tofu. 😜
Thank you 😋
Knowing Taiwan, this will soon become your most popular video ever.
You think so?
wish we have raw tofu in Singapore
Wow.... Exotic Food!
Great video Richard!
Thanks!
Nice trail,great windy weather and with wonderful friends!
Yes it was!
Hello Richard 👋👋👋
Nice Video !!!👍👍👍
Hey, thanks
My family absolutely love ur videos
Thank you!

Oh my favorite, Fermented tofu.
This two are all my favourite in Taiwan!! ⛰️🚶🍱😋👍
Thank you!
You guys are so lucky to be out there, quality time.

Thanks for the tip. Next time!
The best 臭豆腐still the best in Hong Kong , Taiwan 臭豆腐 cannot make it
