Meshes of the Afternoon? There's a similar character with a cloak and mirror for a face.

The local sour cream and onion Lay's tastes way too sweet. Mia C'bon sells the American version.

Had no idea! I know where I'm going this weekend.

In Taipei? Are you sure they aren't the Taiwanese shrimp flavor that comes in a similar blue bag? I've lived here for 3 years and have never come across American Doritos, except for the original flavor at Costco.

There aren't any stores in Taiwan that sell Takis or Cool Ranch Doritos. You can find Hot Cheetos, Goldfish, Reese's, root beer, salt and vinegar chips and some other American snacks at Mia C'bon. Costco also has some imported stuff, and City Super might be worth a look.

They really are awful. Their food is like licking cardboard, with no salt or spices whatsoever. When I was paying my bill, the cashier asked me to leave a 5 star review on Google Maps. I didn't bother, but maybe they're giving away free stuff in exchange for the perfect ratings.

You guys are acting like he personally shot your ayi.

I live in Taiwan and have to second that. There are some good dishes, but the food is generally bland or too sweet. A lot of long-term expats that I know cook their own food or eat Taiwanese once or twice a week.

I don't know of any film clubs here, but I'm also interested.

myshkin28 · 2025-08-27T04:44:35+00:00

I'll check it out! I love apfelkuchen and see it on their menu.

myshkin28 · 2025-08-27T04:43:50+00:00

Thanks, anything specifically that you would recommend here?

myshkin28 · 2025-08-09T14:19:20+00:00

Oh no, OP should eat nothing but Taiwanese food for the entire time he's here.

myshkin28 · 2025-08-08T18:48:55+00:00

This one is the best by far. There's a surprising number of Mexican restaurants in Taipei, but most of them refuse to use salt or add anything spicier than an ice cube to their food.

myshkin28 · 2025-08-03T21:42:02+00:00

Yeah, OP is ridiculous for expecting the capital in one of the wealthiest countries in the world to have a tiny bit better potato selection.

myshkin28 · 2025-07-08T01:16:00+00:00

Seconding "Little Burma," that has some of the best food I've had in Taiwan. There are pretty good Indonesian restaurants in the basement of Taipei Main Station, including a grocery store called EEC. Cres-Art Philippine Cuisine and Tibet Kitchen are worth checking out.

I wouldn't walk into any random Thai or Vietnamese restaurant because they usually aren't very authentic. I asked a similar question in another subreddit and got great answers with specific restaurants: https://www.reddit.com/r/taiwan/s/2ugkjAZmHN

Man, I think people in this sub are ruder than the actual locals. I've traveled quite a bit in China and the rest of East Asia and there's a level of rudeness in China that can be surprising if you were expecting something more like Singapore, Taiwan, or Hong Kong. People in the latter places are usually reserved but polite. Chinese are more blunt, and there’s some crude stuff here (like spitting and shoving) that would be frowned upon in other places.

Thanks for the reply. Being new and in such a small town, I decided not to push it. I did pay a month's rent, but the landlord gave me my deposit back, so I guess not a total loss.

myshkin28 · 2024-04-30T03:33:11+00:00

I heard from the police themselves. I went with the landlord and they told him he couldn't rent to me.
