The local soy milk stand in Minsheng Tong Roh Taipei.
The customers were rushed in the stand to get their drinks or foods. The host lady had instantly seen the faces of them and passed the correct orders of the customers. It had taken just 30 seconds from the customer entering to leaving the stand. singing from the same hymn sheet!! The daily breakfast for the local people shows in Taipei were performed in front of us.

Jiang Ji Dong Men Dou Hua/Tofu, Dong Men soy milk stand, Dong Men Market(江記東門豆花 東門 台北), Taipei, Taiwan
The lovely breakfast in Tong Men Market
Tong Hua was the memorable sweet food in
Taiwan. The texture was very smooth and rich with the flavour of soy milk. The
soy milk may be produced by this family who had running this stand. The Soy
milk was also lovely as smooth like silk, sweet as natural products and thick.
The shop looks very small but the most
Taiwanese place for me.

Soy milk is a popular drink and food in
North East Asia. The major market may be Chinese culture area as Taiwan, Hong
Kong and Mainland. There are also some soy milk products in supermarket in
Japan.
This Dong Men Douhua is located in the
heart of Dong Men Market opposite side from the Din Tai Fung, one of the most
famous restaurants in Taipei. This small soy milk stand may be run by a family.
The food list was very simple as Dou Hua(豆花),
warm Dou jiang(豆漿), cold Tong jiang(豆漿). Some had brought for their family or
themselves, the other had eaten in the shop where has several table sets in
small space. We have visited this stand in late morning, and found long queue
for soy milk products. The queue was very beautiful like that formed by
British.

Bingzan, Datong qu, Taipei (冰讃, 台北), Taiwan
The Mangos
cultivated in Taiwan were very nice. The colour, flavour and taste, all factors
remind me where I am. The apple mango has yellow orange, soft and low fibber
texture, sweet and great flavour. The ripped raw mango has sticky texture with
strong sweet flavour.
We can enjoy
bowls of shaved ice in this shop. The middle aged lady shaved a large ice. The
desert was soft ice like snow powder. This shop had two types of the ice: normal
water ice and condensed milk. 芒果雪花冰is the condensed milk type and 芒果牛奶冰
is normal water type. Once I brought the ice and mango
into my mouth, I had enjoy the harmony of sweet taste snow and sticky tropical
fruits.

This desert
stand opened from May to November which is just the season they can get the
delicious mango.

Fu Hang Dou Jiang, Zhongzheng qu, Taipei (阜杭豆漿 台北), Taiwan
One of the most famous and popular soy milk stands in Taipei
This soy milk stand is located near the Shandao Temple station of Blue line (善導寺). I have gone up to the exit 5, which faced to the Hua san market(華山市場). This stand is opened on the first floor. From the early morning, you will find the very long queue for the Soy milk stand. The local people formed a queue like British. This soy milk stand is very famous and popular in Taipei.
The sign of the stand said the stand was established on 1958. The stand has a lot of table sets around the kitchen and the customers can have their foods on them. All things have been kept nice hygiene.
The table of the window side.
We had a bowl of Xian dou jiang and Dan bing on that morning. As it was very late morning, the queue is shorter than that of what I read some blog. The Xian dou jiang (鹹豆漿) has very nice balance between sweet and sour. The warm soup were activated our body with the rich and good quality of soy beans protein. The soy source and black vinegar gave the soup nice flavour. I can also find the Chinese soup stock with small shrimp. The topped fried Chinese bread give some accent into the soup.

You will find the queue to the 1st floor in front of the Shandao Temple underground station.

TANG 四知堂 臺灣, Taipei, Taiwan
四知堂, Taipei
After
sunset, the darkness and cool spring wind had come to the city of Taiwan. On
the small street, the orange sodium light had shown us the way to the
restaurant. The auto mobile or auto vehicle traffic was few but relaxed local
people groups were going through the street. This restaurant is located on the
quiet street brighten by the orange light.
When going
into the restaurant, the beautiful lady had seen us to show our table. The
madam introduced the meal list in frequent Japanese. The other staff can speak
English. The tables seem to come from Northern Europe. The atmosphere is very comfortable
and home like feeling with slow tempo which is very different from the city of
Taipei. The restaurant has very large space for the number of customer. Each
table is nicely placed for the customers. Light brown woods based interior and furniture
are very modern have beautiful contrast with the dark grey stones or locks in
the small garden.
the dinner set placed on the table
For our starting.
The foods
are very nice for Japanese. The tastes of the dishes are low salt, not strong,
soft and easy for Japanese. Our first course was braised tofu. It was Chinese
taste with sweet and soy source based, but flavour and taste are mild and soft
for our nose and tongue.
The second
course was steamed fish. This is our favourite food in Taiwanese food. The fish
was steamed with soy source, rice wine and some spice. The shape of the fish
which have been already steamed was very lovely and has shine on it. The taste
was mild sweetness and the flavour and smell were lovely with Shanzai or other spicy
vegetables like ginger. This dish has very nice balance between traditional
Taiwanese and international Taiwanese as modern and new Taiwanese.
steamed fish with sweet potato
The other
dishes are also nice. The braised pork and bowl of noodle were based on
traditional Chinese taste but show the novel Taiwanese taste and presentation.
Braised pork with lily roots
sesami mousse
A staff in this restaurant made the sweets as chef patissiere. This mousse was very lovely. I can only feel the sweetness of black sesami.
This
restaurant will be nice restaurant for the Chinese food beginner.

A feature of Soy milk stands in Taipei
One of the most delicious breakfast in the world
Taiwanese people start the day with Soy milk as their breakfast.
The polished stainless steel kitchen made Japanese tourist feel safe and clean in the Soy milk stands. Japanese tourist will find the similarity to the tofu factory in their home town, where the old man and woman made and sold their original tofu from their own recipe.
The history of Taiwan
The island of Taiwan was very beautiful known as Fermosa in Portuguese. The strong and wet green on the mountains or old red brown brick buildings contain real figure of Chinese culture, customs and characters. Taiwanese keep the traditional Chinese character and come from all over the province of mainland China in their original roots. They also have the essence of national treasures from the Hu-chin palace in Beijing in the National Palace museum in Taipei. On the Mainlander destroy the culture and beautiful historical spots in Mainland after 1949 revolution, great culture revolution on 1960 to 1970s and Tiananmen Square protests of 1989. Taiwanese has been keeping the essence and passion of the real Chinese cultures.On the other hand, elder Taiwanese people has "lit pun tsian sin (日本精神)"; Nowaday, Taiwan Tsian sin. They have kindness, real patriotism for their country nature and family, hospitality and voluntary.
Japanese people respect the historical and
old Chinese culture so long time, expect the Chinese communist party era which
the Mainlander lost their origin of culture, nature and agriculture after 1949.
We should not confuse the beauty of the long history in China in the monsters
has the shortest history in the world for just 65 years. The communist party is
not able to became the follower of the tough Chinese culture or history.
The Taiwanese will be the only successor of the Chinese cultures.
The custom of the breakfast were also kept in Taipei. A lot of people make a queue to eat their breakfast from early morning. In some stands, the staff automatically, hand some customers some type of soy milk products which was customised for him or her. The soy milk stands is the necessary place for Taiwanese people of daily life.

The origin of Soy Milk was Mainland?
The soy milk breakfast has come from Mainland of China after World War II. A lot of people who have various origin or roots has come from Mainland when the Chinese Nationalist Party Government has come to Taiwan. They brought some variation of the soy milk products. The soy milk stand has some difference in the taste, flavour or products by street or community. I think, the tastes or flavours might depend on the community in Taipei. There were a lot of variation in the soy milk taste, source, vinegar or salt by the stands. Some stands have long history for 60 years to keep the taste or flavour of themselves.The custom of the breakfast were also kept in Taipei. A lot of people make a queue to eat their breakfast from early morning. In some stands, the staff automatically, hand some customers some type of soy milk products which was customised for him or her. The soy milk stands is the necessary place for Taiwanese people of daily life.
