Rub shoulders with locals and sample favorite bites for the ultimate night market indulgence. Sample items such as slow-braised beef noodle soup, freshly boiled mochi on shaved ice, the old-school smoked shark, and the unique savory tangyuan (湯圓) – loosen your belt and get ready to feast. Devour recipes from family stalls that have been there for generations. Sample shark that is bought fresh daily from the Keelung fish market and smoked with brown sugar under low heat to perfection.
