Taiwan
Cuisine The Chinese cuisine you will have : here in Taiwan is far better than any you have ever tasted before (that's why we host an annual Taipei Chinese Food Festival in August) Chinese food is filling, tasty, and (don't tell the kids) healthy, with a variety of flavors to suit every taste. Among the distinctive regional styles that make up Chinese cuisine are the steamed breads, vegetables, fish, and snacks of the northern (Peking) style. Although it is quite tasty, it is generally considered a bit bland. Another favorite is the seafood and rich sauces of the eastern (Shanghai and Chiangche) style. The sauces tend to be lightly spiced, slightly sweet, and relatively oily. The spicy dishes of the western (Hunan and Szechuan) style make both the mouth and eyes water. Try the fiery Szechuan dish ma-po toufu, or Hunan-style sweet and sour preparations, which are far better than anything you may have tried elsewhere. The southern (Cantonese) style features more colorful and less spicy dishes, frequently stir-fried to preserve texture and flavor. Taiwanese cooking is an interesting branch of the eastern style. With any Chinese food style here in Taiwan, try a full formal banquet, regular entrees, or a quick snack. You'll be glad you did. Some of Taiwan's cities and towns are noted for their evening snacks, and your trip won't be complete without sampling some of these exotic tastes. Try the snacks at Miao Kou (temple mouth) in Keelung, snack stalls in Hsinchu (southwest of Taipei), and night markets in the cities of Taipei, Taichung, Tainan, Kaohsiung, and Hualien. |
