We loved this tour! It was one of the top experiences of our trip to Taiwan because it is so well designed and because our guide was so knowledgeable and kind. It was very hot and humid but the tour intersperses cold food and drink as well as locations with some A/C to keep you comfortable as possible for a street walking tour. On top of a great guide, the food was also amazing and we left asking about how we might find a recipe to try making it at home too!
A must do in Taipei

Comprehensive and excellent tour of local eateries in Taipei. Tina, our guide, was friendly, approachable, and very knowledgeable. We tried so many dishes! Including things I would’ve never found on my own. Highly recommended.
Great variety of foods!

I booked this tour at the last moment but it turned out to be a fantastic experience. Tina, our guide was an absolute delight and one of the nicest persons i met in Taiwan. The food tour at $75 is a bit pricey but I would certainly recommend it over other tours. I did 2 more food tours in Taiwan and this was eons better both in terms of food as well as storytelling.
Good fun and eats

In terms of Chinese cuisine, I am most familiar with Cantonese food. So for my first visit to Taipei and Taiwan, I booked Taipei Eats' Iconic Food Tour (aka Xinyi District Backstreets Food Tour) as an introduction to their cuisine. The 4 hour tour was informative, fun and tasty. We had 2 tour guides: Jean from Toronto and an apprentice whose name I can't recall, but she was raised in the US and went to Cornell. The tour had many stops and took us through "backstreets" of the Xinyi District, where the iconic Taipei 101 building is located. We traipsed through a classic wet market, where food of all kinds (raw, cooked, dried, still alive, etc.) are on offer alongside non-food items like clothing. The most memorable stops for me were the Taiwanese beef "burger" gua bao, stinky tofu (some taste like bleu cheese), a boba tea place, Taiwanese pancakes, and a sorbet place. Jean purchased bottled water for those of us in need. We also stopped at a betel nut dispensary, but I declined to try this carcinogenic stimulant than you chew like tobacco and then spit out, turning your saliva orange! Our tour was altered a bit because we happened to go on Election Day, and 2 of the usual stops, including one offering Taiwan's iconic dumplings, were closed so the proprietors could go vote. We also stopped at the National Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall and were able to see the changing of the guards. Overall tasty, informative and recommended.
Lots of delicious food!!

We thoroughly enjoyed this introduction to Taiwanese markets and fruit! The pace was comfortable, we were never rushed, but we also didn't linger in any one spot. The food selection was terrific, mostly local classics, mixed with a couple more modern treats. Jean was a wonderful guide, giving us a quick intro to each food, then letting us enjoy.
Best food tour in Taipei

That was one of the best food tours I have gone on. Our guide Tina explained all the different foods and how they fit in the local culture. There were so many different foods and the portions were large. I came hungry and I left extremely full.
