Taiwan

Taiwanese food grew out of the traditions of Fujian, where most settlers came from, and after 1949 it was enriched by dishes from all over mainland China. Traces of half a century of Japanese rule and of Indigenous cooking can be seen too. It is best discovered at night markets selling dozens of snacks: oyster omelettes, gua bao buns, fried chicken and stinky tofu. Taiwan is also the home of bubble tea, and oolong teas from the island’s mountains are prized around the world.
