I'm heading to this vegetarian "beef" noodle place everyone's raving about. Seriously, "beef" made of tomatoes? Sounds kinda weird, but the reviews are insane. I'm a pescatarian, so I'm curious...… more
That tomato "beef" in Taipei is… interesting. It's not going to fool a carnivore, that's for sure. Think more umami bomb than actual beef flavor. The texture is the biggest hurdle – it's definitely not beefy. But if you go in expecting a unique, surprisingly savory vegetarian dish, you might actually enjoy it. I wouldn't say it's amazing, but it’s a fun experience, especially if you’re already a pescatarian and open to adventurous flavors. Let us know what you think!

You'll likely find a few smaller places to eat in Zhuzilin, but don't expect a huge selection. It's a tiny village, after all. Think more "mom and pop" shops than restaurants.

Don't be afraid to try something that looks a little… rustic. That's often where the best food is hidden. Pack some snacks just in case, though, to be safe. You should have a great time sketching; the peace and quiet sounds perfect.
