On Day 8 in Taiwan we stayed in Taipei, and I had a few other things to do on my list of attractions in Taipei that I wanted to check out for the blog post guide and video that I plan to make about Taipei. We first went to Wistaria Tea Shop
0:35 Daan Park
In order to walk to the tea house we first got off the Metro at Daan Park and walked through the park. The park is what they call a forest park - so it’s less maintained, but has a more natural and more forest feel to it. I really liked it. It felt a little rustic and there were plenty of birds and wildlife. We didn’t spend too much time there though, but continued on our walk to the tea house.
1:23 Wistaria Tea House
One of the most famous and most well recognized tea houses in Taipei is Wistaria Tea House. Although it’s a Japanese tea house style, they mostly served Taiwanese and other Chinese teas. While I’m more into coffee, I still love tea, and mostly I wanted to check it out to get a taste of some really high quality teas. After having lunch (Taiwanese beef noodles video coming soon) we headed over to Wistaria Tea House. Ying and I had two different teas, one was a green tea, and the other was a black fermented puerh tea. Both were extremely high quality, but I really liked the black puerh tea the most - it had a real earth dirt flavor, but it was so good and so soothing. It was a little on the expensive side, but it was a tea house experience that I wanted to try.
4:45 Ningxia Night Market - Street food
After going to the tea house we met up with Joe and Raymond who we met the previous day on our day trip to Beitou hot springs, and we headed over to Ningxia Night Market to eat some street food and walk around. Ningxia Night Market is yet another great Taiwanese street food market in Taipei that serves a smorgasbord of all sorts of delicious food. One of the most famous things to eat at Ningxia Night Market is the oyster omelet, and there are about 4 very popular restaurants that serve it. After walking around the night market for a while, we stopped at one of the oyster omelet restaurants that looked busy, and ordered one. For the oyster omelet, it was made with oysters, rice flour batter, eggs, and some kind of vegetable, all expertly fried on a large skillet and served with a sweet tamarindy sauce on the side. The sauce was a little on the sweet side for me, but the oysters were nice and juicy and really good tasting. I really liked Ningxia Night Market, because there were lots of things to eat, and there were many street food stall that also had tables to eat at. I ordered a number of different things to try including chicken hearts and all things on sticks. For great Taiwanese street food Ningxia Night Market is a pretty good market to visit in Taipei.
9:17 Taipei 101 at Night
Finally to end the day we headed over to Taipei 101, this time to see it at night and to just walk around. At the malls and sidewalks surrounding the Taipei 101 there is plenty of actions, street shopping and street performances and it’s a pleasant place to wander.
That completes Day 8 in Taipei. The tea house experience was fantastic, and I really enjoyed the Ningxia Night Market as well.
And thank you again to Joe and Raymond.

You are so up beat and enthusiastic about things. I told my daughter that you are refreshing to watch.
Even I have not been to any country that he does video but still I enjoy his videos as it's make me feel like I'm there n enjoying the food.
After watching a couple of the great Taipeh vlogs, I have added Taiwan to my list of "must see" places (and its very high up on that list). I looks like a really really amazing place for food and for food markets, both things that I very much enjoy.
"Good tasting dirt" just made me think of when my grandmother was still alive, pulling fresh carrots out of the garden, giving them a bit of a wipe on the pant leg and om noming. Good tasting dirt.

Hi Mark, My family and I are in Taipe,Taiwan right now. We'll visit Kaohsiung and Tainan the next couple of weeks. Before we left on our trip, we watched all of your Taiwan videos. We enjoyed them very much. We did the same thing before we went to Vietnam last summer. Thank you and keep up the good work!

Only Mark can get away saying something like that without coming across disrespectful or rude. He's just way too kindhearted and innocent for it sound bad. He may not be the most eloquent or the smoothest of talkers but you really do have to appreciate that what he does say, is truly genuine and straight from the heart. He doesn't play games, he just straight up says exactly what he feels, and is almost too honest for his own good sometimes LOL. All while being super-respectful and friendly, of course!
You have to be the nicest guy you are always very polite. Keep up the good work.
Mark you are fantastic. I love every one of your Videos. I watch hem all the time. What a wonderful life you have. Good luck to you and your family..
That oyster omelet-- my God, looks divine and absolutely mouth watering. Jealous!
Enjoy your food in Taipei... What an expensive tea for two of you

Those skewer looked awesome! That tea house reminded me of one I visit in Tokyo. Nice place to relax.
The green tea looks like clear water. Oysters Omelettes is a decent meal where skewers considered as snacks.

Ningxia night market is the best night market in Taipei ! I miss home
That is one gorgeous oyster omelette.
Dirt?! Way too funny! Great videos Mark, keep up the good work!
Great work! Best way to really get to know a country is the way you do it and not the mainstream pre=prepared package. Wish you guys would come over to Europe and Athens Greece where I live so would have a chance to show you around. Keep up the good (delicious) work!

Truly love all your videos, Mark. You always make me hungry and I enjoy seeing your reaction after tasting something delicious! You're also making me want to visit Taipei. I've technically been there several times in the last few years but only as a stopover for a couple hours on my way to the Philippines. Now I'm intrigued.. Thanks again for making me hungry! :-) Happy travels sir!

Watching your videos I know that I will be hungry, because it is simliar to watching MasterChef, but much better because it is true and you show many important things about the local culture. Everything is amazing!!! I love it! Someday I would like to visit some places that you already showed for us! A curious fact... in my city in the south of Brazil we love to eat chicken hearts in barbecue or inside of an hamburger with salad and it is delicious!!!

I guess every visitor to Taipei has been to Wistaria. Fewer to Daan, unless you got off the red line at the wrong stop and have to walk to the original Din Tai Fung. But impressed you made it to Ningxia. While there you could have really dug into the locals at Dihua street. Nigxia is definitely my favorite night market considering so few visitors end up there. As much as I love the 101, I find it more fun to sit at Frank's rooftop and watch it every time I visit Taiwan.
love your video
great video!
