3 Traditional Markets to Experience the Real Taiwan

"Established in 1947, Hoshing’s biggest selling point is its freshly-made steamed cake. Many people also go to Nanmen Market before the Chinese New Year to shop for ingredients to make party dishes." - MICHELIN Guide Taipei Editorial Team

Where to go for heritage brands, artisanal cafes and handmade goods in Taipei - SilverKris

"A red‑brick confectionery run by a third‑generation owner where the rhythmic clapping of pastries made with traditional wooden moulds accompanies modernized Taiwanese treats — think crunchy, fruity hazelnut‑walnut rice puffs, seaweed rice puffs and adzuki bean cakes — blending family tradition with contemporary flavors." - Dana Ter

Ho Hsin 1947 presents a creative concept that reimagines traditional Taiwanese “old treasures” in a modern setting. The highlight here is their authentic Taiwanese rice cakes, thoughtfully prepared and paired with well-selected Taiwanese teas and other local snacks. The rice cakes strike a good balance — soft, fragrant, and not overly sweet, allowing the traditional flavours to shine. Tea pairing enhances the experience, making it feel both nostalgic and refined. That said, prices are on the high side, especially considering the portion sizes and the fact that many items are more snack-like than filling. You are clearly paying not just for the food, but also for the concept, presentation, and craftsmanship. Due to limited dine-in seating, takeaway is understandably more popular, but dining in offers a quiet, intimate way to appreciate the experience. Overall: ✔ Authentic flavours ✔ Creative modern presentation of heritage snacks ✔ Quality tea pairing ⚠ Prices are high ⚠ Limited seating — takeaway recommended during peak hours

The shop has many pastries, both savoury and sweet, to choose from. They were steamed immediately before served, and they came with a small cup of complimentary tea. Luckily I came on a weekday with no crowds so I was able to sit on the bench outside the shop to enjoy this lovely afternoon tea!

Wonderful shop with delightful baked goods. A huge variety of traditional and new flavours with a nod to their tradition. I had their osmanthus and tieguanyin baked pastry. Sublime blend that hits the spot.

Really nice little place at a really nice street. Steam traditional mini cake is very flavourful. Really love the black sesame steam cake. Highly recommend to try it. They gave you a mini cup of tea as well to go with the cake. Overall really nice experience and yummy food. Service was fantastic too!

Walking through the streets of Dadaocheng you will find interesting shops and restaurants to visit. I would recommend this place it serves a traditional dessert. We tried several on site with the rice cakes steamed fresh, we also took a variety back home. Eat in the shop with their tea highly recommended

The steamed buns are steamed for 5 minutes after you place your order. I ate them on a bench in front of the shop while being served tea. They were delicious!

I attracted because of the staff making "Yuan Xiao" in front of the shop. I was never tried Yuan Xiao before and feel lucky that I got such an opportunity to try Yuan Xiao. Need wait for 10mins to be fried. Texture like mua chi, soft and sticky. I ordered matcha, sesame and gui hua. Overall this is a special experience to me, thanks
