Hi, Local Guides!
We go to Taipei in Taiwan from 23rd to 27th in this month with my wife @Christine_T.
I will meet with Samuel who is a Local Guide.
However our plan is mostly free.If you have a recommended spot, please tell me 🙂
And if you are in Taipei during that period, shall we meet-up with us!
And we are also thinking about restaurants because she is vegetarian.
Vegetarian-Friendly Taiwanese Food
Thank you !:))))))))

Hi @HiroyukiTakisawa! Taipei has a huge night market scene so I would definitely check it out. Unfortunately I'm unsure if there are that many vegetarian dishes but I recall eating deep fried squid and drinking milk tea from a bag!
But even if you're not up for food, definitely have a browse through the night markets. One of the biggest night markets there is Shi Lin Night Market.
Have a great time!

Thank you @Shirley
I saved the place of Shilin Night Market on the map immediately. Looks very interesting!
Of course I am also interested in milk tea from a bag.
I'm looking forward our journey :)))

Thanks for the suggestions @Shirley!
We will definitely have to go check out the night market! It looks really exciting even if there may not be much for me to eat. 😄

@HiroyukiTakisawa Wow.. I wish I could join.. but one thing you may want to look for, which Samuel can help is Taiwanese Stinky Tofu (it's vegetarian! yaaayyy)
This possibly smell worse than Natto! If you like Natto, you may like this. 🙂 .. .
Make sure you record a video when trying this for first time.. and share with us 🙂 hehe
@Shirley Have you tried this Chow To fu? 🙂

There are many interested night markets in Taipei.
We may go to night market every night...

Hi, @StephenAbraham !
I hope to join you as well 😉
I have heard about Taiwan Stinky Tofu. (臭豆腐)
Definitely it is veggie if the shop doesn't use something of meat.
We need to check above for my wife.
However, at least I'll try it and share with you :))))))))
By the way, I love Natto.
Thank you!

Lots of street food options for sure in Taipei!! I think you guys will enjoy @HiroyukiTakisawa Lots at the night market!
@StephenAbraham: Nope, never tried. I think I was traumatized as a kid... there were a ton of street food with stinky tofu and I really didn't like the smell...so I still have that ingrained in my head lol
