Dining in Taipei
With most likely the highest density of restaurants in the world, Taipei has something awesome to eat on nearly every street. Join the line for dumplings at the popular Dintaifung in Taipei. It’s worth any wait! In addition to Chinese food, Taipei has everything from Thai to Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, and Italian cuisines. Some typical meals you will find in the restaurants of Taipei include an oyster omelet, tianbula, tofu, and Taiwanese sausage. Taipei also has several pizza places, European-style restaurants like Grandma Nitti’s, steakhouses, and vegetarian specialty places. You can enjoy Middle Eastern falafel at Sababa, or delicious authentic Mexican fare at Amigo Mexican Food. For fantastic desserts, check out Yang’s Bakery in Taipei. Tasty desserts like taro cake and mango pudding are also great at Sweet Dynasty in Taipei. Although most Chinese food is quite health-conscious, vegetarian students are especially happy at Haw Kuang Vegetarian Restaurant, Vegetarian Paradise (near Shida University), and Cottonfields in Taipei.
