We tried muah chee at a make-shift stall. They were expertly made.

We ordered a box of different flavours. They tasted the same as those found in Singapore but they were rather cold.

There were several stalls selling ribs in herbal soup (藥燉排骨), NT$70.

We sat down at one of the stalls which, although not touting, were promoting their stall loudly. We did not really enjoy the meal as we found it a little too loud for our comfort and there wasn’t much flavour in the soup.

As we walked further into the night market, we saw another stall with a much more peaceful ambience, keeping in mind to give this stall a try next time.

Highly recommended! This oyster mee sua (蚵仔麵線) stall was hidden in a shophouse. On first look, they had a row of seats outside the shop which looked empty. It was only stepping into the shophouse did we realized it was full of customers. According to a sign inside, this is the one and only outlet. The mee sua (NT$55) had a good springy texture and they were generous with the fresh-tasting oysters. Delicious! If you like mee sua, check out the famous Ay-Chung mee sua in Ximending.

We stopped by this fruit juice stall just before leaving the market and ordered a refreshing cup of bittergourd with honey 蜂蜜苦瓜汁 (NT$60). It was all blended from fresh ingredients.

Besides food, you can find plenty of shops such as this selling fashion accessories.

If you like Hello Kitty and Rilakkuma, this shop had a lot of authentic Sanrio items for sale.

Jiguang Fried Chicken stall with an outlet in Ximending also has a branch here.

We didn’t get to try this stall but it seemed quite popular. Apparently, the stall was selling Fried Milk (炸鮮奶).

You can also find Teppanyaki here. We did not get a chance to try it.

Japanese fried balls.

Soya curd (豆花), something we would like to try the next round.

The famous Tako balls from Fengjia Night Market in Taichung also has an outlet here.
