The Best Bubble Tea with Various Topping Options in Taipei
It is actually quite easy to find a bubble tea shop in Taipei and they are all very different from each other. We liked many of them but this one stands out from the crowd for sure. This bubble tea shop sells the best oolong tea in Taipei. They offer a variety of topping options, especially their exclusive signature "Milky Jelly". The oolong tea with its jelly toppings was very matchy-matchy; it is not too sweet, with a very strong milk tea flavour. We just love it!

A Hidden-gem Cafe with Comfy Atmosphere in Taipei
This cafe is truly a hidden gem in the neighbourhood since it is very difficult to look for its location. You will have to make a reservation in advance before you visit the place. The atmosphere here is just amazing. The dessert and drink were great. It was a wonderful place to catch up with friends, or when you need a place to take a rest after a long walk in Dadaocheng. We enjoyed our time in the cafe very much.

Authentic Taste of Taiwanese Braised Pork Rice in Taipei
Last but not least, braised pork rice is certainly the top 1 dish that you should never miss. This local restaurant offers the most authentic taste of Taiwanese braised pork rice as well as other dishes such as noodles and soups. The taste of the braised pork rice was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately, we thought the portion of the braised pork was too small for such huge portion of rice. It would be perfect if the proportion was balanced.
