Hi guys, good morning. It is currently 8.30am and I am starving so let's go get lunch at 7-Eleven in Taiwan. Let's go!

你們好，早上好。現在是早上 8 點半，我餓壞了，我們去臺灣的 7-Eleven 吃午飯吧。我們走吧

Right when you walk in, you'll be greeted with lots of food options. I don't know if you noticed, but Taiwan takes 7-Eleven very seriously. There are over 6,000 locations across Taiwan.

一進門，就會有很多食物供您選擇。不知道您注意到沒有，臺灣對 7-Eleven 非常重視。全臺灣有 6000 多家分店。

It's literally everywhere in every corner and open 24x7.

它遍佈每個角落，全天候開放。

From quick bites, beverages, ready to eat meals to household essentials, convenience stores in Asia are the real MVPs.

從快餐、飲料、即食餐到家庭必需品，亞洲的便利店是真正的 MVP。

First thing I'm trying is hot rice ball and soy milk, a iconic breakfast duo from the most famous Michelin breakfast spot in Taiwan.

我首先要品嚐的是熱飯糰和豆漿，這是臺灣最著名的米其林早餐店的標誌性早餐組合。

This is actually really hard to find and normally, this whole set takes around 2 hours to line up to get in Taipei.

實際上，這真的很難找到，通常，這一整套產品在臺北需要排隊 2 個小時左右才能買到。

If you've never tried hot rice ball before, imagine sticky rice ball packed with lots of yummy toppings on the inside.

如果您從未品嚐過熱飯糰，那就想象一下糯米飯糰裡包著許多美味配料的樣子吧。

There are lots of different textures and flavours such as pork fluff, which is sweet,

有很多不同的口感和味道，比如豬肉茸，它是甜的、

Chinese donuts, which is crispy, and other savoury vegetables and toppings.

中式甜甜圈，酥脆可口，還有其他鹹味蔬菜和配料。

Don't forget to ask them to heat it up.

別忘了讓他們加熱一下。

The soy milk was perfect. Not too sweet and still super rich.

豆漿非常適合。不會太甜，還超級濃郁。

The soy milk is actually really creamy. I think this actually tastes really good.

這樣，每一口都是完美的比例。

And then have a thin layer of cream cheese.
