*** Bomb Scallion Pancake
So, there's this dish called "egg scallion pancake", which is a savory
kind of breakfast food in Taiwan.
Bomb scallion pancakes are the same thing, but it is instead deep
fried rather than just stir-fried.
The reason they're called "bomb scallion pancakes" is that it's a
pun. If you put the word you use for "deep fry" in front of the word
for "egg", it's pronounced the same way as "bomb". So, "bomb scallion
pancakes" are really "deep-fried egg scallion pancakes".

It's a mildly funny name for a restaurant. They literally name
themselves "good tasting/good flavor/delicious" chicken meat.
It's just roasted chicken meat, sold in a bento box format.
I like the taste of it.

*** Fire Meat
There are two options to get "fire meat", or "crispy skin burned
meat". It's a hong-kong style dish, but my mom and I have found a
couple places that sell it.
These two restaurants sell, um, "bento boxes"?
Yes, I just googled it. It's apparently the same "word" in both
Japanese and Mandarin. It's pronounced closer to 'byan dahng', but
it's the same concept: boxes with rice, meat, and vegetables.
It's the same wikipedia page as "bento box":
- https://zh.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E4%BE%BF%E7%95%B6
"Fire meat" (脆皮烧肉) is cooked porkbelly, but one side of the porkbelly is
cooked to be really crispy. It's not like charcoal-y, but more like it
seems like it was deep fried on one side. Tastes really good!
This is what it looks like:
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcMYSLQOuyo
Side note:
While googling this, I found out bulgogi also translates to 'fire
meat', but in Korean. Not the same thing!

** Night Markets
Night markets are a kind of night-life phenomena that are common in
Taiwan and China. I get the impression that these are prevalant across
all of East Asia, but the sentiment that I get is that this is a
phenomena that originates in China/Taiwan.
Night markets are basically a conglomerate of popup stands that only
open up at night, and are lined up in a way to facilitate a kind of
leisurely strolling experience. You walk, there's a line-up of shops
selling gadgets, trinkets, and importantly street food. There's also
gambling opportunities (fun games to play for prizes or satisfaction).

People normally try and travel to here via motorcycle, but my silly
brain says that it's bikeable. It's a 29.6 mile round-trip, uphill one
way, downhill the other way.
Last time I went, I left around 4AM, and got back by noon. On the way
back, this pesky thing called the sun rises, and makes things hotter,
so the way back - even though downhill - is way rougher IMO. There's a
[[*7-Eleven][7-Eleven]] in the middle, where I had to stop and cool off for a while
before making the rest of the trek back home.
* Unplanned
** 7-Eleven
Yes, you heard me right. We should probably spend a day or two getting
food from a 7-Eleven.
In Taiwan (probably in other East-Asian countries), 7-Eleven (and
other kinds of these "convenience stores"), actually sell good tasting
food.
These convenience stores have all sorts of connotations and use cases,
but I think the most telling kind of way these stores are treated is
the following: 7-Elevens are a common stopping place for children who
just got off of school, and need a place to sit, eat, and do work
before their after-school tutoring lessons.
The above use case almost gives 7-Eleven a kind of library-type feel,
except instead of books, they sell packaged snacks, food, and various
useful trinkets.
