Nantou City / Caotun / ZTE Village Recommendations

Hello everyone,

Second post on here, but my wife and I are moving to Taiwan in one month and wanted to get any recommendations on shopping, eating, where to visit, etc. In the Nantou City area.
Open to virtually anything, just looking for info on what we can do.

Thanks!

Hi.

My wife’s mom and dad live in coatun.

It’s great not to busy and 40mins to Taichung. Iv been there 4 times now you can get everything vegetable market gets packed out . So go super early. I will be there this January for 1 month . I think we may build a new house there one day .

But good spot if you ask me .

If you like fishing plenty of rivers around there

Cheers

Mike

how about nice places to eat?

Ironic, I’m moving into Taichung now.
Places to eat?
茴香館餃子宴 - Great dumplings
南投梅園餡餅粥 - Delicious Taiwan style meals
the Pot&Pan Bakery and Dining 衛蕾原味攻坊 - American and Taiwanese, delicious meals and bread
緩緩食光 - Great place to catch a small meal
布朗司手製烘焙屋 - Amazing food, Western style, owner’s daughter is Fluent in English

Now, my FAVORITE PLACE in town:
“Tapas” is the name, right next to: 台灣省政府聯合員工消費合作社
Gino and Ming own the place. Absolutely amazing Taiwanese couple, fluent in English, and make wonderful bread with high quality ingredients. Also make pizzas on request.

Good eating! Enjoy the places if you stop by in town.

If you go to Tapas or Pot&Pan, tell them Zach sent you :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
