Vacationing in Taiwan Food Frenzy Epi 31. Hot Oil Dumplings. Another one of our appetizers from Din Tai Fung. Dumplings swimming in hot chili oil. It was tasty, but not the best hot oil dumplings I’ve ever had. The best hot oil dumplings I’ve ever had comes from a restaurant called Szechuan Ace in New Jersey. Din Tai Fung. Taipei, Taiwan.

Vacationing in Taiwan Food Frenzy Epi 30. Pickled Cucumber. One of our appetizers from Din Tai Fung in Taipei; pickled cucumber with hot oil. It’s a good mix of salty, sweet, spicy, and crunchy. I’ve noticed that not matter what Din Tai Fung you go to, the flavor and texture of this dish is about the same (as expected), but the shape in which they cut the cucumbers is always different!

Vacationing in Taiwan Food Frenzy Epi 4. Noodles in Spicy Sesame Sauce. We went to Shilin Night Market the other day and my cousin insisted that we go try spicy peanut noodles from a street vendor. It was a little pricey at NT $40 (USD $1.38) for a bowl of noodles smaller than your fist. But it was pretty good with the spice and sweet crunch from the cucumbers. The spice doesn’t quite hit you until you let it linger in your mouth. That’s when you’re going to need some cold bubble tea. =] Shilin Night Market. Taipei, Taiwan.
