Thank you @radicalfamilyfarms for an absolutely lovely tour! It was so impressive to see how many varieties of Taiwanese vegetables they grow, and the energy and passion behind it is truly heartwarming. It reminded us on why we started Taiwan Bento- to introduce Taiwanese food and awareness to as many people as possible in one of America's most diverse cities. Lots of things have changed since our opening in 2014, but we still hold tight to our roots and legacy and serve the ...classic dishes I ate growing up in Taipei. I feel that same love and drive with Radical Family Farms. This feeling made our visit so profound and homey Seeing so many Taiwanese vegetables that I haven't seen for a long time also made me extra nostalgic during this pandemic. One silver lining during these difficult times has been that we've been able to slow down and get to know more local farms and learn their stories. We are more appreciative than ever about the produce on our table, and wewill do our best to extend the heart and soul of these farms into our food and to our customers. ~ #Repost @radicalfamilyfarms with @make_repost We limited the number of visitors on the farm this year due to the pandemic, but we couldn’t say no to fellow Taiwanese chefs Stacy and Willie from @taiwanbento in Oakland. They saw our on our CSA board and want some true to Taiwan greens for their new dish. We talked about the progression of awareness of Taiwanese food in the East Bay. On the tour we found a huge hidden Taiwanese bittermelon, picked a lucky hulu, bonded over tasting fresh Sichuan peppercorn, and picked roselle fruits for jam and tea. Had to get them in front of our red Taiwanese quinoa, one of 5 indigenous crops to Taiwan. And they gifted a jar of their chili crisp, apparently it’s known that’s that spicy sauces are the way to my heart. Check them out M-F 11:30-7pm for Taiwanese bento boxes and traditional Taiwanese dishes like lu rou fan. Providing culturally relevant produce to chefs and families is the driving force behind our farm. #taiwanesefood #culturallysignificantproduce # #culturallysignificant #taiwanesefarmerandchef #taiwaneseamerican #luroufan

noodle pulls to make you drool ~ What makes Taiwanese Zha Jiang Mian unique? Taiwanese Zha Jiang Mian has a nice balance of sweet and saltiness.
