Halva stracciatella from Gelupo

Gelupo frequently comes up on lists of the best ice cream in London, and based on this one flavour — yeah, that makes sense.  Though it’s hard not to compare all future gelato to the mind-blowing stuff I recently had in Italy, for gelato outside of that country’s borders, this is top-notch stuff.  It’s rich and creamy, and the addition of halva to the classic chocolate and sweet cream stracciatella combo is actually fairly ingenious.  It works really, really well.

Ah Tang is famous for something called milkfish porridge, which is essentially a very ricey soup with a whole bunch of fish chunks in it, traditionally eaten for breakfast.

I was a little concerned about having something so fishy first thing in the morning, but of course, I shouldn’t have been.  When it comes to food, Taiwan knows where it’s at.  They won’t steer you wrong.
