Sort of disagree on the last point - the night markets certainly seem popular with Taiwanese people of all ages! But it’s been years since I’ve actually made a point of visiting one.

Many people and the government says Shilin night market is the best in Taipei, which is rated 3rd worst night market in Taiwan, and indirectly infers all other night markets in Taipei are worse than the third worse in Taiwan.

In your case, what are the TOP5 Night Market foods you recommended, and why?
