Markets and Icecream in Taro-Town, Kaohsiung…
I recently had the enjoyable experience of visiting Kaohsiung County at the invitation of my friends. I’ll blog further about some of the places I visited, but I wanted to share some pictures from an unusual town that specialises almost exclusively in Taro flavour icecream and crazy food. The name escapes me at the moment… but here are a few pictures to whet your appetite.

Welcome to Taro-Town!

At the market, you can buy all sorts of strange things to eat…

…but my favourite had to be dried out chameleons stuck together with rubber bands.

Angela, Erich and myself enjoy the crunchy texture of deep fried insects on sticks.

It’s the Year of the Pig!
