Everything you need to know before visiting the St Everything you need to know before visiting the Starbucks Reserve™ Dream Plaza in Taipei, Taiwan. It’s the largest flagship store in the entire Asia-Pacific region, located inside Dream Plaza in the Xinyi district, right next to the 24-hour bookstore. It’s a beautiful space with artwork that’s colorful and bright, and the rooftop has some of the best views of Taipei 101. 🏙️

They’ve recently made some changes to how you reserve seats and updated the purchase minimums (as of April 2026). I wanted to share a quick guide on how to make the best of your visit so you don’t have to figure it out on your own—like which entrance to use if you’re arriving in the morning!

Some special highlights of this location: it’s one of the few with an actual Teavana bar, a bar for coffee-infused cocktails, and a Siren Lounge. I personally love the Teavana bar—that’s where I usually get my favorite tea latte drinks. All of their food and pastries, whether savory or sweet, are quite good. 🥐☕️

Taipei’s food scene is pretty vast, there are so m Taipei’s food scene is pretty vast, there are so many things to eat, and it can be overwhelming when you’re short on time. I’ve put together this guide of 6 Michelin bib recommended must-try spots for your next trip to make sure you don’t miss the essentials. 

My taste is more old school, most of the restaurants I’ve chosen have been around for multiple decades. Many of them also used to be stalls on the street or at night markets now turned restaurants. I love to support these long standing businesses because they are what makes Taiwan so special. Some people may say these are overrated or there are better places, but these places tend to use great ingredients, follow a consistent recipe that’s not overly salty, without needing to make it too fancy or trendy. 

On the list I’ve recommended the exact dishes that I tried and loved, and some extra tips. They are also all very easy to get to by MRT. Whether it’s your first time visiting, or a frequent visitor these restaurants are actually worth the hype. 

Which one are you adding to your Taipei bucket list first? Let me know in the comments! 👇

Idc what anyone says… fu hang soy milk is one of t Idc what anyone says… fu hang soy milk is one of the best. They’ve been around since 1958! Yes there’s lots of tourists and the line wraps around the block sometimes. But the lines don’t usually last more than 45 minutes. I don’t like long lines or crowds so I just go earlier. (If you’re jet lagged, just come here and eat at 5:30am). 

Everything is made fresh and in house. And you can watch them bake the shaobing in their clay ovens. Many breakfast spots these days buy frozen doughs instead of making it from scratch. It makes a huge difference, in flavor and quality. 

I don’t eat this often at all so it’s such a treat. My must eats are the egg pancake (Dan bing); thin Shao bing (thin flatbread) with you tiao (fried dough stick) and ofc their hot sweet soy milk (dou jiang)! And yes I finish all of it myself haha. Their soy milk is so silky smooth. Everything is so good!

To be honest, I was too busy catching pokemon so these are all the clips I have. But it was so fun seeing all ages young and old playing. They also had yoga, Dj’s, coffee workshops, crafts, and a gourmet market. (Some activities need to be reserved!) AND there was a pikachu and eevee meet and greet. So cute! 

The last day is tomorrow 3/29. Be sure to check it out if you’re in the area! And it’s completely free! 

The pokemon go events like catching special pikachu wearing a flower hat, and exclusive timed research is until 4/6.
