Your Ultimate Vegetarian Foodie Guide to Taipei, Taiwan

Your Ultimate Vegetarian Foodie Guide to Taipei, Taiwan

Sam & Chris | Relentless Roaming
Taipei is a BIG foodie destination, but you will find that a lot of the traditional dishes are heavy on the meat. We spent a week in Taipei (almost exclusively eating) to find all the best spots for vegetarians and the best dishes that are actually naturally vegetarian. Honestly, the food is so tasty that I would go back to Taiwan just to eat! This guide is full of recommendations for restaurants, breakfast, snacks, night markets, bubble tea, desserts, and convenience store goods. And the info is altogether in an easy-to-use, interactive map. I have also included a few accommodation recommendations so that you have somewhere to lay down after all that food, as well as handy links to SIM cards and an MRT card so that you can navigate to your all these spots on your phone, and jump on the metro in between foodie spots! You won't find any fancy, luxury spots in this guide, just proper tasty food. So, roll up your sleeves, tie up your hair, and put your elasticated trousers on, let's get stuck in!

Street Food Night Markets

Raohe Street Night Market
@relentlessroaming
Raohe can get pretty busy, but the food is absolutely worth getting your elbows out for. Keep an eye out for the grilled king oyster mushrooms, scallion pancakes, stinky tofu, and candied fruit on a stick.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Sam & Chris | Relentless Roaming
Hey! I'm Sam, and Chris and I are a couple of vegetarian foodies who have travelled through the Caucasus and Asia for over two years. We are in love with Georgia and Armenia, travelling off the beaten path, and finding local vegetarian food options. I can help you with vegetarian foodie recommendations, practical tips to manoeuvre the local transport system, city guides, itineraries, and general queries about the region. I find that travel is best when experiencing a place as a local, so I will always recommend local guesthouses, local restaurants, local transport if it's possible, but also give alternatives to depend on your travel taste. The Caucasus seems to still be off the typical tourist trail, and it really is such a beautiful corner of the world that is full of culture, natural beauty, and delicious food. Take a look at my guides and services, and come say hi. I'm sure that you will fall in love with this part of the world too! You can find us on social media platforms as @relentlessroaming
