There are only a few spots around Chiayi City that maintain these enormous rounded trees. One is next to the central fountain, but you’ll have to travel pretty deep around Chiayi to find the others. Who wants to try?

Uncle Goat, featured in Netflix’s Street Food Chiayi episode, is an absolutely legendary character. Not only is his passion and determination for continuing a difficult, 1500-year-old culinary cultural heritage admirable, but he’s also a kind, charismatic, and unconventional man who puts extreme effort into everything he does. Getting to know Uncle Goat, over innumerable pots of delicious Alishan tea, has been as personally rewarding as it has been incredibly informative. He has a wealth of knowledge in so many fields and he fully understands the process that he undertakes in cooking his 3 Day 3 Night Goat Stew. To continue this cooking tradition from the 6th century Sui dynasty, however, not only takes knowledge of the intricate process, but also requires intense grit and great physical stress, which he has endured for the several decades his restaurant has been open. Needless to say, I’m a huge fan of Uncle Goat, not only as a friend, but also as an admirer of his incredible work and all that he represents.

By taking a culinary tour to Uncle Goat’s with Toah Tours, you’re not only receiving an indescribably unique meal, but meeting a man who matches the same description. As his friend, he has entrusted us to introduce the culinary process and it’s significance in its entirety to our English-speaking guests. You’ll also have the chance to hear all the behind the scenes stories and experiences about this incredible man that coming with us entails. For example, did you know it took quite a lot of convincing to get him to do the series? We’ll tell you all about it. Check out our website to book a once-in-lifetime experience!

Uncle Goat’s “Oven”

Take a peek inside this smoke-filled, hellish room which serves as the oven where Uncle Goat creates his one-of-a-kind 3 Day 3 Night Goat Stew. If you’ve seen the Netflix Street Food episode about Chiayi, then you know he discusses the physical toll cooking this dish takes. When Uncle Goat opens the tar covered door for our guests to see inside, the visceral reaction is something a simple picture can’t capture. Everyone is able to better comprehend why the preparation of this dish is physically hazardous. Once they taste it, however, is when they realize why it’s worth it.

Check us out and take a tour if you’d like to have a VIP experience with Uncle Goat. It’s not only a meal, but an experience, as we will walk you through the whole process, history, and significance of Uncle Goat’s 3 Day 3 Night Goat Stew.

🇹🇼Happy Birthday Taiwan!🇹🇼
🇹🇼台灣生日快樂🇹🇼

October 10th (10/10), also known as Double Ten Day, is the National Day of Taiwan. As a foreigner, I am incredibly grateful to call this country my home and to utilize Chiayi as a lens to share Taiwan’s wonderful people, culture, history, and delicacies with other visitors. From the first time I traveled to Taiwan over a decade ago, I knew that I wanted to make a life here. Ever since then, I have been in love with this tremendous country and can’t speak enough about its virtues to anyone who will listen. Looking at all that Taiwan has has to offer, from the extraordinary 人情味(human kindness, friendliness) of the Taiwanese people, to the rich culture and intricate history, to the vastly diverse culinary scene, to the breathtaking natural beauty of Taiwan’s landscapes, to the democratic freedoms and safety of the country, and everything in between, it’s difficult to fully express my level of appreciation in a short IG post. I do, however, want to wish Taiwan and all of its amazing residents a Happy National Day! 國慶日快樂! I hope that everyone is enjoying this holiday and feeling proud of their home. Thank you for everything!

If you’re a traveler thinking about coming to Taiwan for a visit, make it a priority as it’s one of the best countries on Earth. You won’t regret it!

Which tea is in your cup today? Let us know in the comments!

These beautiful tea leaves come from a harvest earlier this year at our favorite tea master’s field. He started growing and making high-mountain tea in the acclaimed Alishan mountain range nearly 40 years ago. At the time that he started, not only was nobody in the region growing tea, but nobody knew how. He traveled all over Taiwan by motorcycle, (which was much more difficult at that time) apprenticing without pay to gain the knowledge required to start his own tea operation. What originally started as a way to help his parents who lived in the high-mountains became his greatest passion. His incredibly inspiring story is one filled with heart and drive. Though he had originally studied to become an architect, his career path took a sharp turn and led him to his role as the renowned tea master he is today.
Four decades of change has brought Alishan high-mountain tea into the limelight, sprouting countless tea fields, but our teamaster’s is still our favorite. Come enjoy a traditional tea ceremony, walk amongst the scenic tea fields, and learn more about his family’s incredible journey while having a sip on one of our tea tours! 🌱🍵

小籠湯包

These little mouth-watering bags of joy, often referred to as xiaolongbao or soup dumplings, come from our favorite shop in Chiayi City. The skin is thin and delicate, the soup inside is savory and abundant, and the meat filling is oh-so delectable. After your first one, you’ll be absolutely hooked along with the many other locals who line up to get these flavor-bombs every day. Don’t forget to also order their 酸辣湯 (Hot & Sour Soup) which is a necessary pairing! If you’re interested in coming here on one of our food tours to see why Chiayi folks love this place, let us know!
