Fuhang Soy Milk (Fuhang Dou Jiang)

 We visited many popular Taipei restaurants but this one was by far the most popular. Fuhang Soy Milk is known as one the best restaurants in Taipei to have a traditional Taiwanese breakfast.

The line here literally goes down a flight of stairs, out the building’s door, and around the block…twice! This Taiwanese restaurant is crazy popular.

Pictured below is my bowl of warm soy milk with youtiao or Chinese doughnuts. The food here is good and cheap, though I’m not experienced enough to know how much better it is than other restaurants in Taiwan that serve Taiwanese breakfast.

I’m assuming it is judging by the small army of Taiwanese customers who come here every morning. On top of that, it has the distinction of being a Michelin Bib Gourmand awardee.

But it is worth the long wait as a tourist? It’s hard to say. If you have the time and are willing to get up at the crack of dawn and possibly wait for an hour or more, then go for it.

If you aren’t, then the good news is that you can purchase a voucher in advance through Klook and have the food delivered to you. Personally, I enjoyed the experience as much as the food so I suggest having it at the restaurant if you can.

As described, the lines at Fuhang Soy Milk get ridiculously long. This was the end of the line at 6:30AM.

The queue looks long but it doesn’t even tell the whole story. The line actually wrapped around the building before going up a flight of stairs.

After waiting at least half an hour, I finally got through the door and into the large cafeteria area. Aside from soy bean milk and fried dough sticks, Fuhang Soy Milk is known for serving many different types of Taiwanese breakfast items like egg crepes and roasted pancakes.
