I don't agree with some of them, but that is because I prefer traditional recipes. Plus some of the stuff on there don't taste anything like they should because it has gone chain and no one cares for tradition nor effort. Especially number six. I tasted the original when I was a kid and this Jan I went back and it was literally inedible. Lots of people eating but I guess they were all tourists.

thanks for the link. now to find out where I can get this shit in LA.

One of them

http://www.dintaifungusa.com/

Number 20 on the list. Number 19 is epic good, I can put away four of them in no time.

A lot of this stuff should be in LA, plenty of Taiwanese people there.

I make a few of these dishs myself.

Another thing I noticed, they used a lot of examples from Taipei, but realistically most of them should be experienced in the south, like Tainan, one of the oldest cities in Taiwan.

I'm actually not a fan of DTF. Ridiculous lines and more expensive than I want to pay.

I go to a woman who wholesales XLB for half of san gabriel valley =D

I only recognized a quarter of the stuff on your list as available in LA, but I'm not THAT big in taiwanese cuisine.

Dtf's xiaolongpao is good. I don't know about the wholesale ones, the ones at DTF are made there same day.

Yeah, I got a legit chick who came over from the mainland. The ones she makes at her store at made fresh. Also sells frozen by the thousands to shops O_O

I've never had the XLB looking thing w/ a straw though.

I need to look into fire code to see if I can have a fire pit so I can BBQ Argentine style.

Oh is that why you posted your 11/6 weight even though you were due for a weigh in today? A little retainage eh?

I weigh in every morning bro...I just asked for a divorce tonight (I was planning on Sunday, but she knows me enough to know something was up so we hashed it out).

This morning normally just work from home, but I had an appointment to hit first so I was rushing and thinking of my divorce. I downed my supplements and took my protein shake. I weighed in at 206. I weighed the two glasses/shaker with liquids minus their weights and it was about 2 pounds. I could have been at 204.

I have lost 32 pounds in 12 weeks. My weight is going down. I guess you think you may be upsetting me or something, but IMHO you are just being a dick and semi-annoying to everyone that is lurking here watching you fucktards unravel about me.

Wait until I start posting conquest pics, that will be all "YOU LIAR!!!" "PHOTOSHOP!" "PROBABLY YOUR COUSIN!"

It's gonna be good.

Well, at least you are divorcing. Too bad it didn't work out for you guys.
