Ningxia Night Market is the locals' night market — a compact, single-street market in the Datong district that lacks Shilin's scale and Raohe's fame but consistently produces the best food of any night market in Taipei. The market has won multiple Taipei City awards for food quality, and the stalls — many operated by second and third-generation vendors — serve the traditional Taiwanese dishes that have been refined over decades of nightly repetition.
The must-eat stalls include Liu Yu Zi (oyster omelette and egg crêpe), Fang Jia Shredded Chicken (boiled chicken on rice with sesame oil), and the grilled squid and taro ball stalls that draw queues from early evening. The market is a 10-minute walk from MRT Zhongshan station and is best visited on weekday evenings when the queues are shortest.
