The Taiwanese tour guide proudly proclaimed that Taiwan though a small entity compared to her giant neighbour, PRC has far more to offer in terms of the great variety of foods and delicacies. He contended that Taiwanese are more ingenious and creative in coming up with all sorts of bites and snacks than their counterparts in mainland China!
Many visitors come to Taiwan primarily to try out the highly promoted street foods which are plentiful in all the night markets. Besides Laohe Night Market and Shilin Night Market, we were taken to Ximending, Shifen Old Street and Jiufen to try out some of the highly promoted lists.
Come to taste and preference of a particular food item, there is just no absolute agreement that a particular food item acclaimed to be good is accepted by all. After all, taste and preference is a very personal matter.

| Jiufen: Grilled Sea Snails. |
Food is a universal language that binds people together. We met this group of young Malaysia who also came all the way to try out this bai zhan ji translated as boiled and cut chicken!
