Ningxia Night Market (寧夏夜市)

Ningxia Night Market (寧夏夜市)

Ningxia Night Market (Ningxia Road, Datong District, Taipei) this time. This was so much smaller than the one at Raohe. It also appeared to be much more packed in the small main street.

Got this mung/green beans smoothie thingy near the entrance of the market. Nice. There's loads of mashed mung/green bean packed into the cup.

Tried something called zhi gao fan (知高飯) which was basically a small rice bowl with some braised pork trotter, bamboo shoots and an egg. Pretty good. The other bowl was dan bao xia ren tang (蛋包蝦仁湯) - basically soup with egg and prawns. Yes, those orange things were prawns coated in some flour.

Giant chunky chicken skewers. Not unique to this market but we've seen them a number of times and decided to just get them to see if they were like what we imagined. These were flavoured with salt and turmeric as far as we could tell.

Was a major pain moving through the street of this night market. It was an experience for sure, one that I do not care to repeat.
