Taipei Commercial District Cuisine Heads to Japan Matsuyama - Captivates Locals

Taipei commercial districts organized their first-ever delegation to participate in Ehime Prefecture\'s largest Matsuyama Industry Festival on the 18th and 19th. Many Japanese visitors flocked to the Taipei booths to taste authentic foods including beef noodles, braised pork rice, and tea oil vermicelli. Through culinary marketing, Taipei\'s gourmet reputation was promoted.

In October this year, Taipei City and Japan\'s Matsuyama City renewed their friendly exchange agreement, continuing various exchanges. Taipei\'s commercial districts have diverse characteristics, and this first delegation was organized by the Commercial District Industry Federation, inviting eight famous specialty food vendors, allowing Japanese visitors to taste Taipei\'s foods at the Industry Festival.

Taipei\'s booths included Xinbeitou Hot Spring, Yuanshan, NTU Gongguan, and Maokong Commercial Districts, introducing beef noodles, braised pork rice, tea oil vermicelli, enzyme noodles, mullet roe fried rice, taro ball soup, and gua bao to Japanese visitors, who exclaimed "Oishii" (delicious).

For those wanting to experience Taipei\'s diverse commercial districts in one day, the "Taipei Living Festival - Christmas Celebration" runs November 24-26 on Qixing Street next to Xinbeitou MRT Station, with 23 commercial districts and 70 shops in three zones.
