Calcutta Indian Food 加爾各答印度料理。印度咖理
Indian restaurant

This Indian restaurant in Taipei's Wanhua District offers a taste of authentic Indian cuisine. They are praised for their samosas, which come with a unique, tangy green chutney that perfectly complements the mild potato and spice filling. The restaurant also serves a rich and creamy butter chicken curry, which pairs excellently with their fluffy cheese naan, baked in a traditional tandoor oven. The curry is noted for its strong dairy flavor, reminiscent of Cheetos cheese puffs, and is best shared due to its richness and concentrated flavor.

Snow King Ice Cream in Taipei offers unique ice cream flavors, including traditional Chinese-inspired options. Their jasmine tea and mulberry flavors are popular choices, noted for their distinct tastes and interesting textures that fall between sorbet and ice cream. The mulberry flavor has a sweet yet slightly savory finish. For the adventurous, they offer a sesame oil chicken ice cream, which surprisingly balances savory and sweet notes with real ginger and chicken pieces. This shop is a must-try for those seeking unconventional dessert experiences.
巫記青蛙下蛋-萬年店
Place

This establishment is famous for its unique take on bubble tea, featuring 'frog eggs' (black sugar pearls) as its signature ingredient. Their black sugar pearl milk tea is a popular choice, with warm, soft, and slightly sticky pearls that are distinct from the chewier boba found elsewhere. The drink itself is described as having a sweetness level similar to three to five parts sugar at other bubble tea shops, making it a comforting and nostalgic treat. Its seating area, often compared to a hot pot restaurant, provides a spacious environment to enjoy your drink.

This restaurant is a popular spot in Taipei's Ximending district for authentic Hong Kong-style cuisine. They are known for their stir-fried radish cake, a hearty dish with a crispy exterior and soft interior, featuring flavorful pork and dried shrimp. Another highly recommended dish is the company sandwich, a luxurious multi-layered sandwich with tuna, luncheon meat, tomato, and pickled cucumber, offering a delightful mix of flavors and textures. Pair your meal with their Hong Kong-style iced milk tea, which is less bitter than traditional versions, or a refreshing iced ovaltine for a taste that appeals to local preferences.
木咖 Horoka

Muka Horoka is a charming cafe known for its specialty coffee and pastries. Their iced drip coffee and pour-over coffee offer unique flavor profiles, with the pour-over having fruity notes and a distinctive bread-like aroma. For those who enjoy milky coffee, their red jade fresh milk tea latte provides a balanced blend of fresh milk tea and coffee, with a pleasing foam texture. A standout dessert is their chestnut hojicha chiffon cake, featuring a light and airy chiffon base topped with rich chestnut cream and a crunchy texture from biscuit pieces, creating a multi-layered flavor experience.
180度C蜜酥雞排
Restaurant

This fried chicken stall is a local favorite, known for its crispy and tender chicken. They offer two standout items: the crispy chicken with fermented tofu, featuring juicy chicken pieces with a slightly sweet and savory sauce, and the taro cake, which is praised for its soft texture and balanced seasoning. Both dishes maintain their crunchiness even with sauce, offering a satisfying bite without being overly salty. It's a convenient and delicious spot for takeout, especially after work, offering unique flavors that cater to different preferences.
阿豐鵝肉麵
Taiwanese restaurant

A Feng Duck Noodle is a popular spot for comforting duck noodle soup. Their signature duck noodle soup is known for generous portions of tender, smoky duck meat and springy noodles, all served in a rich, flavorful broth. Another standout is their 'gan lian tang,' a soup with abundant, tender meat that is remarkably inexpensive. The braised tofu is exceptionally soft, almost pudding-like, and comes with a subtly spicy BBQ sauce. The braised pork rice is also highly praised for its rich, umami flavor. This eatery is a great option for a satisfying and affordable meal.
豬飽飽雞蛋糕
Dessert shop
5.0
Zhu Bao Bao Ji Dan Gao offers a delightful twist on traditional Taiwanese egg cakes, shaped like eggs and featuring various fillings. Their taro filling is particularly noteworthy for its dense, authentic taro flavor, reminiscent of frozen taro ice cream, offering a genuine taste of the root vegetable. The original flavor egg cake boasts a pleasant, slightly sweet taste and a chewy, mochi-like texture that keeps it moist without being dry. They even offer special dog bone-shaped egg cakes made with goat milk for pets. This is a perfect spot for a quick and fun snack.
San-Chi Snack Bar
Restaurant

San Ji Waimai is a popular takeout spot known for its charcoal-grilled chicken. Their grilled chicken leg is a highlight, offering tender, juicy meat infused with a distinct charcoal aroma and a spicy, flavorful marinade that penetrates deep into the meat. It's praised for being well-seasoned without being overly salty or spicy, making it a satisfying protein option. Their taro cake is also highly recommended, praised for its exceptional texture and balanced sweet and savory flavors. This place is great for a delicious and convenient meal.
