The Beauty of Taiwan's Food and Strolls

Visiting Taiwan, the night markets are an experience not to be missed. This time I came to Raohe Night Market in Taipei, which is filled with an atmosphere of longing. The night market boasts a dazzling array of delicacies, and although it's only a short 20-minute walk, each one is worth recommending. The photos capture the deliciousness I've tasted, especially recommending the pepper buns, the kumquat lemon is very refreshing, and the rib crisps are also fragrant. There's also the ice and fire glutinous rice balls worth lining up for, the unique combination of rice wine with ice and sesame rice balls has a distinctive flavor. Sweet potato balls and taro cakes should be eaten while hot, or the texture will be less enjoyable. Stinky tofu and medicinal braised ribs are very fragrant, but I was too full to eat more, leaving them for next time. Additionally, Yu Zhen Xin's cream puffs, sun cakes, and beef jerky sugar are great as souvenirs. Then I went with friends to Tuen Mun, passing through a village estate with numerous shops and a variety of food and groceries. We tried a Taiwanese restaurant there, spacious and comfortable with music playing, adding to the ambiance. We tasted oyster omelets, garlic stir-fried lettuce, signature beef noodles in soy sauce, crispy rib vegetable rice, signature drunken chicken rolls, clay pot dumplings with chicken stew, pearl milk tea shaved ice, and Long Long Honey Honey special drink, each with its own unique flavor, leaving a lasting impression. Afterward, we started our journey to Kaohsiung. In the morning, we arrived at Taoyuan and took the high-speed train to Kaohsiung. Unfortunately, I didn't win the Jin Fu Qi draw, and there was no one-day offer for the SIM card, so I had to buy a three-day one, and on the last day, I was forced to activate international roaming. In Kaohsiung, there were some 'free' records where the step count doubled. For example, two kids were repairing the roof at Pier-2; the pure white carousel at Stack 2 Warehouse was removed; the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas at Lotus Pond were under maintenance; and the jadeite cabbage at the National Palace Museum was not on display. However, there were also some doubled happiness with delicious food and drinks. The fish belly soup at Dagouding Milkfish Vermicelli Soup was very tasty; Gangyuan Beef Noodles were affordable and initially delicious; Dahua Milk Tea with half sugar was very drinkable, and sweet lovers thought it could be even sweeter. Yanchengpu Night Market is only open on Saturdays, super delicious, with few stalls but all are essence, and the prices are incredibly cheap! The spicy and sour duck feet are absolutely amazing. There's also authentic duck rice, crispy stinky tofu at Ruifeng Night Market, saltwater chicken, and more. The clear broth beef noodles at Liu Shan Dong Beef Noodles in Taipei are also very fragrant. This trip for the working people was super rushed, a hurried three days in the south, and although the one-day trip to Tainan didn't yield much delicious food, I saw the stunning Ten Drum performance and beautiful sunset. On the last day, I hurried back to Taipei and visited the National Palace Museum. With a journey of thirty thousand steps a day, it was fortunate that Kaohsiung was cheap and delicious. The shops didn't open in the morning, but the hotel included breakfast, which was also very satisfying. I will come again! But next time, I'll avoid the Dadong Night Market in Tainan, which is expensive and not tasty. 🥹

CNY Celebration in Taiwan

First time celebrating CNY oversea, so Taiwan would be the top choice on the list. Here’s the breakdown of the 6 days trip: Day 1: Direct flight from Penang to Taoyuan. 3:20pm departing from Penang and landed around 8pm at Taoyuan airport. Booked an inn approx 2km away from Taipei Main Station and saved up on taxi fees. Day 2: Visited National Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall, Taipei 101 and its vicinity. Surprised by the atmosphere as it wasn’t as festive as Malaysia. Had dinner at Ximending and it’s the best place for (literally) window shopping. Day 3: Took train & bus to visit Jiufen & Shifen. Intrigued by the architecture and old school vibes of these two places. Long journey and definitely worth it! Day 4: Booked a taxi for a full day trip down to Taichung. Unfortunately stuck in a bad traffic and took 4 hours to get there. Gentle reminder: take HSR next time! Didn’t manage to visit much places as the traffic congestion took up precious time, ended up visiting the famous ice cream shop (Gong Yuan Yan Ke), Carton King and Yizhonh Street Night Market. Super rushed and short trip but definitely will revisit again. Day 5: Second last day in Taiwan, spent the entire day at Tamsui. It was jam packed with people as it was the 4th day of CNY, thus mobility was quite an issue. It has nice view and the weather was bone chilling, had a great evening there. Day 6: 9am flight, thus had to wake up at 5am and arrive at the airport by 7am. Landed in Penang around 1:30pm, and the whole trip came to an end. Final verdict: Is Taiwan worth visiting? A big YES.

Taiwan, must visit city in your list!

I have been Taiwan for a several times and this was my fifth time to be here. Taiwan is a place with full of love and delicious food here. I went to the famous waterfall in Taiwan which is located in Pingxi District along the Keelung River. It has a height of around 66 feet and is widest waterfall in Taiwan! The name is called Shifen Waterfall and I loved it so much. Moreover, I went to the lover bridge to see the sunset and it was so pretty. I wish I can have more time spending in this wonderful place. Come along to Taiwan and find out what you like the most ! #taiwan #台灣旅遊 #台灣 #tripcom #travel

Looking for a challenging hike somewhere in Asia where one is located in Taiwan called Mount He Huan where this is a mountain that has a total of more than 3000metres of climb and is the highest peak among all the other mountain in this region.

The Bustling Streets Of XiMenDing

Ximending, has a different vibe when the sun is up and when the night falls. In the late morning and afternoon you will see the same bustling streets as the night but the difference is the many Taiwanese Groups who want to market themselves out to the public doing their singing and dance out on the streets making this one of a very busy hype up location, something like the singapore orchard Road or New York City times square. Also for food options, and almost every street, every corner you will find the many Taiwanese delicacies like hotpot, fried chicken, bubble tea and many more.

The Sunshine Cafe on elephant hill

When one travels to Taiwan its either 2 things, the panoramic views from the mountains or the food trial in the night markets or cafes. One shout out to a cafe called Sunshine Cafe located at elephant hill(Xiang Shan), located right at the foot of the hill and this is a must stop place for those wanting to either have a rest stop before going up the elephant hill for a scenic panoramic view of Taipei. This cafe has a cosy interior(initially I thought it was a vegetarian cafe due to its plants and signboard), which serves really good coffee and rea and of course waffles and ice cream! The cafe owner was friendly and kept talking to us about how they actually miss tourists like us. But the place was still quite quiet on a Wednesday afternoon, which makes thus place a sweet spot to be either on a work trip or better a date ^^ #fallingforfall #foodie #taiwan #taipei #cafe #cosy #elephanthill

Taiwan, taoyuan

I really love Taiwan beef noodle! in fact their boba milk tea and their pastries are the bomb! is a must to try if you planning to go taiwan!

Exploring Jiufen

Situated in a small mountain region, Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Jiufen is an old village that still retains its own charm. It is said that Jiufen used to be a village with nine families during the Qing Dynasty and would request for 9 portions (jiu fen in Chinese) of shipment every time and that’s how its name came about. It subsequently became a gold mining town, ended up shutting off in 1971 when mining declined after World War II. It has since flourished to become a must-visit tourist attraction with its preserved narrow alleyways, stairs and teashops. Although we were driven to Jiufen by a friend, getting there via public transport shouldn’t be a quite difficult with a direct bus 1062 from Zhongxiao Fuxing MRT outside Sogo department store. #passionpassport #jiufen

Beautiful Modern Taiwanese Restaurant

Excellent Taiwanese food! But the design concept and environment photos will be put in the next post Because both salty and sweet foods are excellent, they have to have a whole post on their own The food here is surprisingly good Add innovative elements to the base of traditional Taiwanese cuisine I already want to eat it again (*ﾟ▽ﾟ)ﾉ ❁ French Foie Gras Beef Tongue Beef Noodle $268 ✔️✔️ ❁ Soft Shell Crab Mapo Tofu Lo Mein $238✔️ The price here reflects the quality, the price of both noodles is high but it is worth it! ! Beef Tongue and Heart Beef Noodles! The beef bone soup base is paired with the home-made spicy butter, which is sweet and thick, and the mousse-shaped foie gras sauce is even more fragrant and smoother~ The beef fillet is very soft and delicious, plus the thick noodles that soak up the soup, Really unforgettable 😋😋 The mapo tofu lo mein sauce is more savory, a little spicy, and the soft shell crab is very novel and matches, also recommended~ ❁ Fish Maw Braised Pork Rice $168 The Huajiao film is very soft and delicious, and the braised pork with pork skin is very old-fashioned in Taiwan. ❁ Three-color salted chicken $128✔️ ❁ Mentaiko Sweet or Spicy $78 The salted crispy chicken is served with grapefruit, tom yum, and truffle sauce. Personally, I like the tom yum sauce the most. Sweet and not spicy is cooked in a semi-frying method. It has a strong fragrance and should be eaten while it is hot! #restaurant #deliciousfood
