Taiwan - Gastronomy




Food is reason enough to travel to Taiwan. It is a rich blend of Chinese regional cuisines infused with distinctively Taiwan variations and spices. Fried scallops, "five spice" spice pork stir fry, and prawn cabbage.




Patroning street food (xiaochi) shacks is a common Taiwanese fourth meal. This food is sinisterly delicious and cheap. Everything from steamed pork dumplings, chocolate banana crepes, to a spicy oyster egg omelet. My favorite was the double fried flat bread filled with green onions.
