Indian food in Taipei has often been hit or miss for me. I have a great experience at a restaurant, but a not so great experience the next time I go. So let me know if there's any solid ones out there I need to go to and what to order there (and which Indian buffet is your favorite!)

For the most recent info, please look under the Indian label to read reviews. You can also search my blog or click on the restaurant name for the review.

Mexican food in Taipei

Great mexican food has been one of the toughest foods to find in Taipei- texmex, baja mex/fresh mex or Taiwan-ified mex-- most of the time we sigh and say "it's not bad, for Taiwan." But thankfully, there's been a few new places in recent years that may change that!
