    uncommon Food Food Food inTaiwan!!! | 5:33 PM
    One thing I love about Taiwan is their variety of food.
    I love the night market
    Too bad I am unable to da-bao the food or the entire night market back to Singapore
    Hopefully these pictures can satisfy the stomach if you are hungry :)
    These food might not be commonly found in all parts of Taiwan - but definitely a must try if you come :)




    Duck Roll
    This resembles our Singapore Popiah - reminds me of home.
    But its wrap with roasted duck.
    yum yum !




    If you like popcorn chicken, why not try the taiwanese version of popcorn mushroom. Its an assortment of mushrooms , including my favourite "jin zeng gu" and they fried it and sold it like popcorn chicken! once you bite into it, the outside crispy and the inside is soft and spongy. Mushrooom lovers - dont forget to try this!


    Doesnt this look like our laska.
    Precisely - its laksa!!!haha
    but it cooks by me - haha...that makes it unique and not commonly found!



    You are not seeing wrongly - this is not winter melon, its extra large large Watermelon.
    big, juicy, yummy!



    If you ever have a chance to visit the "yuan zu ming" at fuxing province - the place where I teach, the die-die must try fruits is this - "shui mi Tao" . Usually it is harvested only during june every year and the sizes ranges from small to big. Big one costs as much as 5-6SGD!!!
    once its ripen, a bite onto it will cause the juice to splurp out like a gush of water!
    heavenly sweetness !
    "ke - li - bing' , the outside crust with many ingredients to choose from. corn, vegetables, meat, mushroom ,salad etc...girls love to eat this - dunno why. probably its one of the healthier option you can find in the night market.





    This resembles the sharkfin soup you see in our singapore pasar malam! but no, its not fake sharkfins , but its real crab meat! eat together with their oily gluttinous rice, this dish can fight with the famous ah zong mian xian! its one of my favourite!!!


    this fried prawn balls - quite common in any dim sum restaurants.
    but happen that the one i ate is very nice :)



    apple banana? haha. yup - its a hybrid of apple and banana.
    ask me how it taste like if you ever see me - i will describe to you.haha


    roasted corn - this is a bit different from the one you brought from our pasar malam.
    they added one thick layer of sauce onto the corn as they roast it.
    the aroma smell with the crust on the outside layer of the corn.
    sure to get corny the more you eat!
    once you start - it just hard to stop.



    Sausage marinated with Gao-liang, one strong alcohol drank by the chinese.
    taste unique.
    dont attempt to drive when you wanna try this.haha



    Ice Cream with sticky peanut, on popiah skin + vegetable - weird combination.
    but not too bad lah.




    Kids love this.
    This tall layer of potato chips is one full connected piece.
    imagine "lays" all stick together..


    i forgotten the name of this dumpling - but it is nice and small.




    it is not difficult to find snacks associated with sweet potato in taiwan. the famous and common ones will be "di-gua qiu". but the one i shown above is another kind of sweet potato snack. it is sweet potato dipped and cooked in malty candy ( mai - ya - tang ) and a special ingredient. Sweet potato itself already taste very sweet , now with the candy , it is made sweeter.
    taiwanese just love sweet stuffs :)
