NIGHTLIFE
Season 7
Episode 703
A lot of cities claim to never sleep, but Taipei makes good on that promise. Danielle visits a 24-hour prawn pool where she catches dinner and tours a popular night market, tracking down oyster omelets and shaved ice. At the port of Keelung she walks down a dark alleyway to a bar straight out of “In the Mood for Love,” where the local catch is served fresh from the nearby seafood market.
