FishSki in Taiwan: Eat for an Adventure!

by Rob McCormack January 10, 2018

FishSki was lucky enough to bring in the new year with an extended layover in Taipei, Taiwan. We took this opportunity to spend 24 hours exploring Taiwan's food scene including street food, the famous five star Din Tai Fung, dim sum, oyster omelets and more. We knew Taiwan had amazing street food but the amount of street food was an overwhelming surprise to us both- It is literally everywhere. We spent New Years Eve cruising vendor to vendor and trying many different bites. Our favorites were the takoyaki, oyster omelets, fried chicken, and scallion pancakes.

However, our most fantastic meal was our dinner at Din Tai Fung where we enjoyed col spicy tripe, hand pulled beef noodles, truffle soup dumplings, hot and sour soup, shumai, and more. Cruise our photos below to see what Taipei has to offer! Or watch the full video on our YouTube channel.
