Posted by manda on August 17th,2011 Taipei is the mecca for night markets. If you crave the thrill of eating dubiously-safe but ultimately tasty eats,you have met your match. As much as Rob and I would love to pretend to be Anthony Bourdain,our tummies would probably cry mutiny,so we took it easy this time. Posted by manda on April 26th,2010 There is no better way to experience a new culture than by diving into the local street food. You get to see what sort of flavors,meats,and cooking styles they use and it’s usually on the cheap. It’s even better if you have a local as a friend to find the best of the best jQuery(“document”).ready(function(){jQuery(‘#ngg-gallery-104-719′).galleryView({panel_width:600,panel_height:400,frame_width:40,frame_height:40,transition_interval:0,overlay_color:‘#222′,overlay_text_color:‘white’,caption_text_color:‘#222′,background_color:‘transparent’,border:‘none’,nav_theme:‘dark’,easing:‘easeInOutQuad’});});On a street corner in Causeway was a vendor selling kebabs with exotic-looking meats and little bowls of shumai and stewed meats. We got some shumai,cheese dogs (little cocktail wieners bursting with cheese), and some barbeque grilled octopus coated with a shacha sauce. If only we had the tummy space to taste everything!

Located in Causeway Bay,this place specializes in Japanese rice pizza.  | |
