My Trip

A route conquering in one meal Nanjichang, which local gourmands name 'Taipei's best night market.' Picking only the queue-worthy veteran stalls — chicken rice, pan-fried buns, sesame-oil chicken and sesame flatbread. A neighborhood density different from touristy markets.

Haochi Fried Chicken好吃炸雞
