Have A Seat, Taiwan's first international banquet reality show, brings Taiwan’s warmth, culture, and cuisine to the world with stops in Australia, Japan, and the U.S.A.

From the Sydney Opera House in Australia to Kumamoto Castle in Japan, and then to Times Square in New York, Taiwan’s first international banquet reality show, Have A Seat, showcases Taiwanese celebrities’ cooking prowess as they deliver food culture to the world.


The Taiwanese banquet team, composed of actress and TV host Sonia Sui (隋棠), actor and director Lan Cheng-lung (藍正龍), TV host Hsin-Hao Hsieh (謝炘昊), singer Chen Sui-Yi (陳隨意), and YouTuber Chien-Chien (千千), returned home after months of filming across countries to host a final heartwarming banquet at Sisinan Village near Taipei 101.

Braving the sweltering heat, they focused intently on preparing ingredients and cooking, leaving no room for carelessness. After months of filming internationally, the final chapter is a 16-table "Thanksgiving Event" for which the hosts personally prepare all the dishes.

Sui commented that Have a Seat is all real, and they are really cooking.
Chien-Chien said she felt an immense sense of accomplishment seeing the guests' happy smiles while eating. Lan expressed his surprise at how quickly this dream came to life. Chen said that because what they cook is for people to eat, deliciousness is important, but the most important thing is food safety. Hsieh added that he was very proud that foreigners at that crossroads of the world now shout out, 'I love Taiwan!'

The team unanimously agrees that Chen has the best skills, while Hsieh’s cooking was the most questionable. Regardless, the team still managed to whisk viewers away into enjoying Taiwanese food culture.
