Ningxia Night Market is one of the best night markets in Taipei if you love street food my Taipei Travel Guide for Food Lovers: On Day 8 in Taiwan we stayed in Taipei, and I had a few other things to do on my list of attractions in Taipei that I wanted to check out for the blog post guide and video that I plan to make about Taipei. We first went to Wistaria Tea Shop 0: 35 Daan Park In order to walk to the tea house we first got off the Metro at Daan Park and walked through the park. The park is what they call a forest park - so its less maintained, but has a more natural and more forest feel to it. I really liked it. It felt a little rustic and there were plenty of birds and wildlife. We didnt spend too much time there though, but continued on our walk to the tea house. 1: 23 Wistaria Tea House One of the most famous and most well recognized tea houses in Taipei is Wistaria Tea House. Although its a Japanese tea house style, they mostly served Taiwanese and other Chinese teas. While Im more into coffee, I still love tea, and mostly I wanted to check it out to get a taste of some really high quality teas. After having lunch (Taiwanese beef noodles video coming soon) we headed over to Wistaria Tea House. Ying and I had two different teas, one was a green tea, and the other was a black fermented puerh tea. Both were extremely high quality, but I really liked the black puerh tea the most - it had a real earth dirt flavor, but it was so good and so soothing. It was a little on the expensive side, but it was a tea house experience that I wanted to try. 4: 45 Ningxia Night Market - Street food After going to the tea house we met up with Joe and Raymond who we met the previous day on our day trip to Beitou hot springs, and we headed over to Ningxia Night Market to eat some street food and walk around. Ningxia Night Market is yet another great Taiwanese street food market in Taipei that serves a smorgasbord of all sorts of delicious food. One of the most famous things to eat at Ningxia Night Market is the oyster omelet, and there are about 4 very popular restaurants that serve it. After walking around the night market for a while, we stopped at one of the oyster omelet restaurants that looked busy, and ordered one. For the oyster omelet, it was made with oysters, rice flour batter, eggs, and some kind of vegetable, all expertly fried on a large skillet and served with a sweet tamarindy sauce on the side. The sauce was a little on the sweet side for me, but the oysters were nice and juicy and really good tasting. I really liked Ningxia Night Market, because there were lots of things to eat, and there were many street food stall that also had tables to eat at. I ordered a number of different things to try including chicken hearts and all things on sticks. For great Taiwanese street food Ningxia Night Market is a pretty good market to visit in Taipei. 9: 17 Taipei 101 at Night Finally to end the day we headed over to Taipei 101, this time to see it at night and to just walk around. At the malls and sidewalks surrounding the Taipei 101 there is plenty of actions, street shopping and street performances and its a pleasant place to wander. That completes Day 8 in Taipei. The tea house experience was fantastic, and I really enjoyed the Ningxia Night Market as well. And thank you again to Joe and Raymond

These videos are so false. I just got back from Thailand and taiwan. The street food is mainly bland and disgusting, you never know how long the meat has been sitting on those trolleys and what has landed on them. No food is covered no fridge to keep uncooked food cold and containers washed on the floor near the gutters. So many people I know got stomach bugs from eating the food in Taipei. I just landed in Australia where out food regulations are much stricter. But Im still enduring illness from bad food

Watching your videos I know that I will be hungry, because it is simliar to watching MasterChef, but much better because it is true and you show many important things about the local culture. Everything is amazing I love it Someday I would like to visit some places that you already showed for us A curious fact. in my city in the south of Brazil we love to eat chicken hearts in barbecue or inside of an hamburger with salad and it is delicious

Truly love all your videos, Mark. You always make me hungry and I enjoy seeing your reaction after tasting something delicious You're also making me want to visit Taipei. I've technically been there several times in the last few years but only as a stopover for a couple hours on my way to the Philippines. Now I'm intrigued. Thanks again for making me hungry: -) Happy travels sir

I liked hearing the people chatting happily behind you in the Tea house. real atmosphere The skwewers looked good. Nice to know you can get them. I am allergic to green pepper so I wouldn't choose that one. and I don't eat blood. They use pigs to test diseases that affect humans because the blood is so close.

Hi Mark, My family and I are in Taipe, Taiwan right now. We'll visit Kaohsiung and Tainan the next couple of weeks. Before we left on our trip, we watched all of your Taiwan videos. We enjoyed them very much. We did the same thing before we went to Vietnam last summer. Thank you and keep up the good work

September 9, 2016 (Friday)Taipeh has many good Taiwanese street foods. Grilled foods has carcinogenic due to it being cooked on coals. Carcinogenic accummulation causes cancer. It's always better to eat steamed foods, boiled foods, cooked foods. Maribel L. ChungCity of AntipoloPhilippines

Great video and series. This brings back memories of when I used to live there. Just want to point out though that those teas are not Taiwan grown teas, which are very distinct and are the island's pride and joy. Next time you're in Taiwan, try some Taiwan teas =)
