Jensen Huang is best known as the billionaire CEO who transformed Nvidia into the world’s most valuable company. On the side, the tech mogul has been building a reputation as a street food influencer.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Nvidia and the company’s newsroom account posted videos on X of Huang visiting the Raohe Street Night Market in Taipei, Taiwan, where crowds of onlookers gathered as he ordered food from local vendors.<\/p>\n

Huang also took the opportunity to scribble a timeless “Jensen was here” note on a bathroom wall:<\/p>\n

One video captured a throng of people waiting just outside a store for Huang, and cheering as he emerged:<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, after accompanying President Donald Trump on his state visit to China alongside a delegation of business leaders, Huang was also spotted eating noodles at a roadside stall in Beijing.<\/p>\n

It’s not unusual for Huang to be seen trying local delicacies, and the Nvidia CEO has emerged as something of a street-food connoisseur. Over the years, he has been photographed buying food at night markets and street food spots across the world, including in Vietnam, Hong Kong, and South Korea.<\/p>\n

Dan Liu, a tech founder, has compiled a list of what he says is every restaurant, stall, and noodle shop Huang has visited around the world. Jensen Eats’ running tally includes 47 spots so far, from a Korean fried chicken spot in Santa Clara to a hotpot restaurant in Shanghai.<\/p>\n

Huang’s love of food is well-known in Silicon Valley circles. In an April 2024 podcast interview with Robert Nickson, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg said Huang once invited him over for cheesesteaks.<\/p>\n

“Jensen is really into cooking, so he invited me over to his house,” Zuckerberg said.<\/p>\n

Oracle cofounder Larry Ellison also recalled having dinner with Huang. In 2024, he said that he and Elon Musk once begged Huang for GPUs at Nobu in Palo Alto.<\/p>\n

Huang got his start in a restaurant. At 15, he worked at a Denny’s in Portland as a dishwasher, waiter, and busboy. Years later, it was another Denny’s in San Jose where Huang and Nvidia’s cofounders Chris Malachowsky and Curtis Priem first discussed the idea that would become Nvidia.<\/p>\n

Now, the Denny’s spot at 2484 Berryessa Road has a plaque dedicated to that history-making moment.<\/p>\n

Of course, it’s not all noodles and posing with fans on the street for the CEO of a $5.2 trillion company.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Channel News Asia in Taiwan that aired on Monday, Huang addressed one of the hot-button topics that keeps coming up in the tech world: layoffs being attributed to AI.<\/p>\n

“I think the narrative that connects AI to job loss for many of the CEOs that are doing it, it is just too lazy,” Huang told CNA.<\/p>\n

Huang’s latest street food appearances come shortly after Nvidia delivered earnings beats throughout its latest earnings report. It delivered $81.6 billion in revenue in its first quarter, beating its $79.15 billion estimate. The company’s stock is up 14% this year.<\/p>\n
