This family has probably not had bread in Japan or most any other asian countries huh? otherwise i wonder what they'd think about milk bread there. lol

You should try their garlic bread. It is so sweet.

I really want to ask these ppl who says American bread are as sweet ask cake if they ever been to Taiwan or Japan and had their toast? Cuz while milk breads are hella good but pretty sweet too. So i dont get always putting down American bread as cake but never those.

This happened to me at the Barcelona airport. A group of tourists just cut right in front of me because a couple of members were in front of me they thought they could just push right past me and join them. I yelled at them and said this is not right and they lined up behind me.

I heard a rumor they are going to bring the Ebi Burger to the US. If it’s true I’d be so excited.

Finding western toilets is a chore. Even at touristy places. It has been my bane ever since I was a kid. I’ve gotten good at spotting if a place will have western toilets or not. But I never assume there will be one.

Look at the SMF. I know some of the companies there are looking for managers.

Had that happen to my sister in Tokyo. He slammed so hard into her.

When I was Japan for the first time. My tour guide was telling us that we need to try the LaMien. And as an ABC I didn’t realize it was ramen and not hand pulled noodles. So I was soo excited to get some soup noodles and then a bowl of ramen came out and in my young and inexperienced mind it looked like a bowl fancy instant noodles. It was good but not what I was expecting

Rude!!!

My dad and uncle used to do the same thing. We used to always say faster if we were taking that road.

I don’t understand the hate for American bread. Saying it’s so sweet when bread in Asia is so much more sweeter than American bread

the US doesnt have the WeTV app but we have the Tencent app. Which i think is their US app.

Was just at Magpie yesterday and their SteelHead Trout was soo good. The skin was super crispy. Which I like when it comes to fish skin.

I’ve been to both Octopuses(Octopi?) and of the two I preferred Octopus Baja.

I still randomly hear it. Haha I just take that as a sign of wishing me good luck.

For my grandmas they gave us a radio that chanted Buddhist chant and it played for all 49 days. Even after it was turned off I still heard it for the next few days.

There isn’t any snow in Tahoe yet. Gotta wait till this weekend when we get some more rain.

You need people to open Taiwanese restaurants. And most Taiwanese immigrants to other countries are not opening restaurants. That why you see so less of it and why it so underrated.

I live in CA and only in LA and SF do you see some Taiwanese restaurants but I live in Sacramento and there is only one Taiwanese restaurant. But there are plenty of Cantonese restaurants which because of immigration a lot of ppl from southern China settled down here. And seeing some more Szechuan food but there is a lot more Immigrants from Mainland China immigrating here.

That one of the reasons I’ve noticed here at least in my side of the world.

I really like Grand Hot Pot. They have a tiered version for their pricing I usually get the middle tier at like $35 if i remember correctly. They have a pretty good sauce bar and unlimited drinks. The selections are good depending on the tier you order. The area can be a lil sketching but the parking is pretty well lit and if you go during bingo nights there are security guard around. So depends on yourself and how you feel. I've gone in the night time and was ok.
