Honestly, Not many restaurants can hold down a Mic Honestly, Not many restaurants can hold down a Michelin bib recommendation consecutively from 2018-2026. It’s literally the best sesame noodles I’ve ever had! And I keep going back. Everything is made really fresh. 

The exact order you need to get at Moon Moon Food (雙月食品社) 🥢👇
1️⃣ Sesame Noodles: Chewy noodles in a rich, fragrant sesame sauce with peppercorn. It gets more numbing and spicy as I ate. 
2️⃣ Sea Bass Soup: Delicate, fresh, and deeply comforting broth. Goes well with the noodles to ease the spice.
3️⃣ Luwei (Braised Dishes): Packed with flavor. Can’t really go wrong here. 

If you have food sensitivities like I do, you can ask them to do the braised dishes without sauce, and the soup without alcohol. 

💡 Pro-tip: Go early or avoid peak lunch hours to skip the long line! (Make sure to take a number, because people do line up early.)

Would you try a seated hair wash, or do you prefer Would you try a seated hair wash, or do you prefer the traditional lay-flat sink? 💆‍♀️🫧

I came back to the same salon in Taipei expecting a simple hair wash, but got an old school seated wash instead—and honestly, it was such a fun, low-effort reset! Getting a deep scalp massage (my scalp feels so relaxed) and thick suds right in the styling chair hits completely differently.

And for under $16 USD (500 NTD total including curling!), it’s easily one of the best little self-care treats in the city. ✨

If you are looking for authentic, cozy Taiwanese c If you are looking for authentic, cozy Taiwanese comfort food, you need to add Huang Mama Rice Noodle Soup (黃媽媽米粉湯) to your Taipei food bucket list.

Start with their famous Rice Vermicelli (Mǐfěn / 米粉) served in a sweet, savory pork bone broth. They use thin noodles, and adding a splash of vinegar completely elevates the flavor profile. 

Pair it with their classic pork cuts and fried tofu. I was impressed with how clean their meats were. They didn’t have any gamey taste. The winter melon tea is fantastic, it’s quite hard to find a good one in Taipei these days. 

Things to know: Interim Dongmen Market, is currently in trial operations/ soft opening, ahead of the official grand opening on October 9th. The historic century-old Dongmen Market is being demolished in early 2027, so only 45 of the most famous heritage vendors got a spot in this clean, air-conditioned interim market. They will be operating at this temporary spot for the next 4 years before moving back to the rebuilt market.
