- It's day two for me in Taipei and today we'll be using the local transportation in order to get some fresh seafood at Taipei Fish Market & Addiction Aquatic Development 上引水產. I've been to Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo, Noryangjin & Garak Fish Market in Seoul, and when I heard Taipei had their own, I definitely had to pay a visit. There are two sides I believe to the market and one side is the Addiction Aquatic Development and the other side is the Taipei Fish Market. Before you decide to head here make sure you have cash, because I believe it is cash only unless things have changed at the Addiction Aquatic Development in Taiwan.
You'll primarily be on the left side of the market and once entering you will immediately see the huge tanks full of live seafood. You can purchase these and I think you might also be able to ask them to cook the seafood for you as well. As you make your way through the fish market there will be tons of stations that you can visit where you can buy vegetables, fruits, seafood, and sushi. You can also go to the Seafood Bar and Sushi Bar and other sections to get a spot to eat at one of their standing tables.
I tried a few things at the market and one of the things that I wanted to try was the Taiwanese Crab, however I wasn't a huge fan of it. I grew up eating blue crab so my palate prefers the sweetness of the blue crab over this. I also tried a few pieces of sashimi, nigiri, and also some prawns. The fish quality for my sashimi and nigiri was really good and tasted delicious. On top of it, the portion sizes are quite large. The prices here are really reasonable for sashimi and maybe on the cheaper side when comparing it back to the U.S. If you're looking for the best seafood in Taipei, you need to come here and taste their delicious seafood. If you're not a fan of seafood, no worries there are a bunch of meat dishes and some vegetarian dishes as well at the other counters.
After you finish eating your meal, I'll explore the other side of the market. Outside in the middle is a sit down restaurant where you can order food I believe and on the right side of the market is frozen seafood shop. As a tourist you probably wouldn't buy much there, so I recommend you just staying mostly on the left side of the market. If you're wondering what to do in Taipei or where to eat in Taipei, hopeful this might make it to your list as a must try in Taipei when you visit!

What's your favorite seafood dish to eat?
sashimi rockfish
hope you’re well man, great job covering a variety of places & foods along with some pointers. love the vids 🍻
Yay new video!
Hope you enjoy it!
I've ridden the MRT past this district so many times but never knew this existed! 😳 wow!
I'm glad that you now know about it, pay this place a visit the next time you're nearby!
@@JohnQuach Absolutely :D
LOL you had a second crab after the first one being blah? Nice video very informative. Thanks!
Haha yeah! I figure sometimes maybe it was just a bad crab, so I gave it another shot, but it still wasn't worth it! If it was expensive I probably wouldn't have gotten it again.
John - you can get salmon anywhere - always, always get mackerel!
Haha I was curious and had to try as much as I can!
So this is where you had the expensive seafood! Saw you caught the bus in this vid. Any English announcements of the stops? Do you get on at the front door or back? Waiting for new content but there's still a lot of your vids I haven't seen yet so I'll just travel through them first!
For the bus there is English on the stops so you should be able to know where to stop. I saw people entering both ways front and back. When you're stop is coming hit the button to let them know that you need to get off. New video is now up sorry about the wait!
@@JohnQuach thanks for the heads up I'm definitely looking forward to watching it! Thanks for all the work you put in between travels :)
@@rachelwebber2120 Thanks for the support I appreciate it, and I hope your this info is pretty helpful for your upcoming trip!
Is the place wheelchair accessible?
Unfortunately I do not know the answer for sure. I do know that there is a ramp outside that has a outdoor restaurant that a wheelchair can access at the 02:00 in the video. Inside though I'm not sure if there were ramps that a wheelchair can access. I do remember that there were stairs in various places, but not sure exactly where. At 02:21 should give you a better idea of the layout of the area. Sorry, that I don't know the exact answer to this!
$50 usd per pound for lobster is higher than nyc prices gtfo
Yeah it's a blessing that we get it so much cheaper in the U.S. Makes sense over there though since they are importing their lobster so it's much more expensive.
*Please don't eat and chew in front of the camera! It's absolutely disgusting and nauseating! Observe eating manners at all times! Another thing, why talk in front of the camera? Focus the camera away from yourself and on the fish market scenes. Isn't that what the video is about? Not on yourself?*
