Taiwanese media outlet ETtoday reported on the 11th that Taiwanese people burst into laughter and praise over something a Japanese woman who came to Taiwan for a solo trip did at her hotel.
According to the article, a Japanese woman recently posted about her solo trip to Taiwan on SNS Threads. The woman wrote, "Everyone must be curious about what a Japanese person traveling alone in Taiwan does at their hotel," and posted a photo.
The photo showed mangoes, dragon fruits, QQ balls (fried ball-shaped donuts made from sweet potatoes, etc.), stir-fried meat and vegetables, white rice, various drinks, and beer, all seemingly purchased outside and brought back. It seems she was having a "solo banquet" with delicious food brought back to her hotel.
In response to this post, Taiwanese netizens commented, "Precise choice," "You understand food," "Choosing QQ balls shows you're a connoisseur," "It's amazing how you pair white rice with stir-fried water spinach and lamb," and "A true gourmet."
Furthermore, some users commented, "Exactly what Taiwanese people do when they go to Japan," "It's almost the same as what I do in Japan (lol)," "Every time I go to Japan, I buy fruits, milk, R-1, and prepared dishes from a local supermarket at night and have them as a late-night snack at the hotel. It's the same thing I do in Japan," and "Don't forget to weigh yourself before returning to Japan. Make sure you've gained enough weight." (Translation/Editing: Kitada)
