She Says: The Dumpling King

MMM MMM MMM..just looking at those pics makes my mouth water. This restaurant is a must if your ever in Tien Mu and wanting some great cheap Chinese food. I definitely agree with my good ol' pal's review. However, I must add, as a non-Chinese speaker I found the menu to be impossible to decipher. There are no pictures of any of the dishes and even though the ladies behind the counter are super sweet, I found that communicating in English quickly turns into a miming session. So if you go, make sure to bring someone who is at least a little competent in Chinese.

45 Pub

The 45 pub has to be one of my favorite bars in Taipei and it is well worth the treacherous climb that you must endure to get to this second floor bar. I know a lot of people claim that this is a college bar however, if you are interested in hanging with some friends, listening to decent western music and eating THE BEST pastrami sandwich this side of the globe, then you have found the spot. 45 has that divey feel that is oh so hard to find in Taipei. If you are into finding an unpretentious hang out where you could read a book while drinking a brew.... Go to 45

THE BREAKDOW:
-BEST PASTRAMI SANDWICH!!!
