Highlights
- Dongmen Market - Our Food Tour begins at a hidden traditional market, where you’ll discover Taiwan’s delicious seasonal fruits, earning it the nickname “Kingdom of Fruit”.
- Dongmen Dumplings - While often seen as an offshoot of Chinese and Japanese cuisine, Taiwanese dumplings boast a unique flavor, traditionally paired with hot and sour soup.
- 茶敬茶 Tea to Tea(2/16~3/17店內整修) - A symbol of local pride in Taiwanese cuisine. Don’t miss the chance to enjoy an authentic tea here!
- Tian Jin Onion Pancake - When visiting Yongkang Street, you must try the flaky and chewy Taiwanese scallion pancake. With our guidance, you’ll gain special access to this popular snack without waiting in line!
- 志明紅麵線 - A staple street food for Taiwanese locals, this vermicelli dish is served with intestines and optional coriander. Be sure to add some black vinegar to truly savor the essence of this authentic street food!
- 台灣一品 拉麵與刀削麵 - Now a renowned dish among global food enthusiasts, Beef Noodle Soup has humble origins in Taiwan’s post-World War II military family villages. Each year, Taipei hosts a competition where residents vote for the city’s best Beef Noodle Soup!
- TAROKING - Finally, our Food Tour concludes at one of Yongkang Street’s hidden gems for the famous Taiwanese shaved ice. With choices like taro, mango, or other seasonal fruits, this treat will leave a lasting impression of Taiwanese cuisine!

Great bites and company - A huge thank you to Susie and Wen! We loved our food tour and learned so much about Taiwan on the way. We had so many wonderful dishes, and tried things we would not have tried if we didn’t go on the tour. Our favorites were the beef/noodles, scallion pancake, and all things boba/tapioca. What a fantastic day it was, eating good food with good company. We definitely recommend this tour!

Amazing food tour. Would highly reccomend - The food tour was great. We stopped at 7 places near Dongmen station and had great food at every stop. There was a mixture of breakfast snacks, lunch and dinner entrees, desserts, and drinks. Tim was a great guide and you could tell he was knowledgeable and passionate about local Taiwanese food.
