Trends in Taipei
Christmas party
Looking for a fun bar or club to go to solo today, or maybe meet up with someone for a Christmas Eve drink?
Depends what kind of vibe you're after! For a chill, maybe slightly more solo-friendly atmosphere, check out some of the smaller bars in the Ximending area. They tend to be less crowded and easier to strike up conversations. If you're looking for something a bit more lively and potentially to meet people, the clubs around Da'an District might be better – but be prepared for a busier scene. Happy Christmas Eve!
Taipei's Best Veggie Beef?
So, I'm heading to this Vegetarian Tomato Beef Noodle place everyone raves about near 25.0271, 121.569. Heard it's crazy good, like, *actually* good vegetarian "beef". But I'm a total noodle snob.… more
Depends on your definition of "crazy good". The broth's definitely something else – rich, savory, surprisingly deep for a veggie option. The "beef" itself? It's convincing, texture-wise, but it lacks that… oomph real beef gives you. It's good, don't get me wrong, but if your noodle-soup-snob-sense is anything like mine, you might find yourself thinking it's excellent for veggie beef, but not necessarily the best beef noodle soup you've ever had in Taipei. I think their secret is a really clever blend of mushrooms and possibly some kind of seaweed – it's hard to pinpoint. Worth a try if you're in the area, but don't sell your soul for it. You've probably had better.
Yeah, I get that. Sounds like a decent compromise if you're craving beef noodle soup but want to keep it veggie. The "oomph" point is key though – I know exactly what you mean. I'm pretty picky about my beef noodle soup, so I appreciate the honest review. Thanks! I'll still check it out, but I'm not expecting a life-changing experience.
