UnderstandAll the Tea in Taiwan

Da'an has some of the nicest teahouses in the capital (Water Moon and Wistaria, for example). Tea growing and drinking has a venerable tradition in Taiwan. While most people head to Maokong when they want to enjoy brewing and imbibing, there are a few excellent places within the city as well, many set in beautifully restored Japanese-era residences.

If bubble tea (boba cha) is your cuppa, good news: you'll find endless roadside stands and stalls throughout the city selling it hot or cold with ice. In Da'an, Shida Night Market (師大路夜市; Shīdà Lù Yèshì GOOGLE MAP ; h4-11.30pm; mTaipower Building) is a prime spot. Most of these places also offer fruit-flavoured teas, such as lemon or passion fruit, and sweetened or unsweetened black- and green-tea–flavoured drinks for between NT$30 and NT$60 a cup. Three of the most popular chains are 50 Lan, Comebuy (our favourite) and CoCo; you'll see them everywhere.

Note: if you can bring your own flask you can save on plastic and sometimes get a small discount.
