  • From mochi shaved ice to giant crispy deep fried squids, homemade pan-fried dumplings to chewy sweet potato balls, and some of the best boba you'll ever get, here's but some of the many, many reasons why the night markets in Taiwan are forever my favorite place to be.

    I was at Taiwan last week. It’s a very underrated travel destination. I miss the food, people, culture, and everything about it. I can’t wait to go back!

    I wish I had access to that kind of food culture. In the Midwest, I have no such luck. Also--it's frickin cold right now.

      I’ve lived in the Midwest for the past year and now Ireland and yeah it’s so hard to hold on to my Taiwanese food culture because none of the ingredients I had to go on a trip to Vancouver to even get the sesame sauce I love

      As a Taiwanese who lived a year in Wisconsin, I definitely had hard time to get used to the food culture there, not the food is bad, I just wish there were more options to choose from. 😅

    Oh my god I went to the same dumpling place in Ningxia Night Market when I was visiting Taipei earlier this year. Me and my friends saw the place crowded with local people so we just went in and as expected, the food was sooooo good. It was a cold rainy night in Taipei so the dumplings and hot soup really helped warm our souls. Highly recommend!!!

    The people and food is just fantastic. At night hundreds of street food stores. So yummy.
    The famous bubble tea is invented in Taiwan.
    Love the slang of Minnan language.
    Wonder why not much of promotions on Taiwan.
    Taiwan is a lovely country👍❤

    Went to Taiwan for the first time recently, only had 3 days there so wasn't able to go to every night market i wanted to. Thankfully, Shilin, Ximending, Jiufen, and Ruifeng all had a ton of my favorite street food and now I am addicted to Taiwanese popcorn chicken, among other things! Also learned of Sunny Hills through you guys on Worth It, so I took home box upon box of pineapple and banana cake, and was surprised to learn they offer coffee too, since I'm not big on tea (theirs was surprisingly not as bitter as most teas I've had though, so I was fine with it!)

    I'm soooo jealous! I haven't been back to Taiwan since covid (I used to go there every year before that) but I hope to go back soon. I love the nightmarkets. The food is delicious and so cheap that you can eat like a king without spending much money. I miss Taiwan so much.. It's my favorite country after Japan (a very close second).

    Made me miss Taiwan so much. My faves are the fried chicken, fried sweet potatoes, oyster omelette, oyster vermicelli, stinky tofu, sausage in a sausage, and of course all the fresh fruit juices! There are always more dishes to try than i can handle! I went back in May and i realized it's not always easy to find the traditional dishes. Definitely trying this night market when i go back this winter. Thanks for a great video
