This is hilarious. "A maple bouquet" is beyond even the lingo of the wine tasting snobs. This one really should be shared on engrish.com.

I lived in Taipei after college back in 1985 in the usual study-Chinese-and-teach-English mode. Your blog gives a great rush of nostalgia. Some of your photos are superb as well. Keep it going!

Thanks for the comments. I used to be excited about posting to engrish.com, until I realized that I LIVED in engrish.com, and the constant confusion and misspellings had lost their titillating nature for me. :) Oh well!

    This blog stands against the fictitious law passed in March 2005 by the P.R.C. proposing that unification is Taiwan's legal and moral duty, even to the point of the P.R.C. using force to uphold that fiction. TaiwanTiger ascribes to the statement of Taiwan's Mainland Affairs Council that:

    "The Republic of China is an independent and sovereign nation and its sovereignty rests in the hands of the twenty-three million Taiwanese people. Only the twenty-three million Taiwanese people have the right to make the final decision on any change to the nation's status and future."

Taiwanese Food

  • Ai Yu 愛玉 3
    So, this seems kind of crazy, but hey we all love to eat, right? In Taiwan, it's considered a hobby. When you go on a trip, you need to stop at such and such town for their great ______. Noodles, shrimp rolls, chicken thighs, soup, whatever. Everyplace seems famous for some addition to the Taiwanese culinary tradition. So here I am attempting to document some of the traditions of eating, the places to go, and the food itself. This will be a difficult and slow moving project, because I feel really strange photographing food in the presence of other diners, especially when I have to stand on a chair to get it all in.
