We decided to explore the market and were overwhelmed by the variety of food and their accompanying scents. We then tried to find a spot for dinner and perused several menus. Instantly, a restaurant stood out to us because it had a large fish display in front of it. Both my roommate and I, being from Florida, love fish and were astounded when we realized that the entire stand was so fresh it had no \u201cfishy\u201d smell. After entering the restaurant, we ordered a variety of dishes, from shrimp to salmon belly sashimi. While I enjoy sashimi in Florida, this was unlike anything I\u2019ve ever had before. The fish tasted unbelievably fresh, and the shrimp was exceptionally tender. We had multiple courses and the entire meal was around $16 USD for the two of us. It was my favorite meal of the trip and one I\u2019ll remember for a long time.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"930\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-1024x930.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-1024x930.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-300x272.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-768x697.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-1536x1395.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-2048x1860.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/image-20-850x772.jpeg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-1000x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23615\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-1000x1024.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-293x300.jpeg 293w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-768x787.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-1500x1536.jpeg 1500w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-2000x2048.jpeg 2000w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-300x307.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.rollins.edu\/letters\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/IMG_2054-850x871.jpeg 850w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While wandering aimlessly through Taipei City, my roommate and I came across a small street market hidden within the alleys.
