Potsticker and Dumpling (鍋貼 — 水餃）

Potstickers

Dumplings

Chinese name: 鍋貼 — 水餃

English translation: potstickers and dumplings 

Where to find it: almost anywhere in the city on the street in a shop. It's not one of those outside food stands.

Price: usually priced at either 5-8NT per potsticker/dumpling

I'm sure everyone knows what these are. Usually, filled with pork inside of them and some with shrimp. Potstickers are the pan fried ones and dumplings are the ones cooked in boiling water. I will tell you about the typical menu you will get. Both kinds come with "house special, curry flavored, kimchi, shrimp, leek" They usually have soy sauce, white and black vinegar, oil, spicy sauce on each individual table. You will always see on the menu corn soup or hot and sour soup. Traditionally, you're supposed to drink hot and sour soup to go with your dumplings and/or potstickers.

Baked Potato (起司馬鈴薯）

The menu at RaoHe Night Market

Chinese name: 起司馬鈴薯

English translation: cheese baked potato

Where to find it: Raohe Night Market or ShiLin Night market (main street 2 stands)

Price: 40-60NT

Basically, this is a baked potato top with cheese sauce. It's a bit different from the kind we have back in the states. You can choose what toppings you want like broccoli, corn, mushrooms, bacon and pineapple. There's no onions, salsa or butter like how you would add to it back in the US. They also like to toss pepper on top as well. Surprisingly, the 2 stands at ShiLin Night Market on the main street always have a line for it. Also, the on at the end of RaoHe Night Market has a long wait as well.

Taiwanese Burrito (潤餅)

Chinese name: 潤餅 (run4 bing2)

English translation: Taiwanese version of a burrito

Where to find it: Jiu Fen (潤餅） Ice cream version, and some small night markets. 

Price: 30-40NT

Thin layer of skin with shredded peanuts mixed with parsley and different flavored ice cream usually like taro or lychee. This type of run bing is harder to find. The more typical kind is the kind that has vegetables in side with some pork meat. When it's rolled up it looks just like a burrito. I'm not sure if other countries eat this as well or if it's just a Taiwan thing. But I'd recommend trying it if you see it.
