Taiwan: Ah Ba no Yu Yuan
On the same Youtube video that introduced me to the Man Le taro pork floss sandwich, I discovered Ah Ba no Yu Yuan:
Located in the Lehua Night Market, Ah Ba no Yu Yuan is very popular, judging by its long lines:
Their signature is this explosion of taro (135 NT / $4.30):
The taro comes in three forms: taro glutinous ball, taro paste, and taro cream. It's basically a taro lover's dream. There's also white glutinous balls, tapioca, and barley to add a bit more color and texture contrast.
The most unique part of Ah Ba's signature is this:
Instead of humdrum regular ice, Ah Ba's signature shaved ice is made of sugar cane juice and comes in large chips. There's a subtle sweetness to it that is simply delightful. One of my pet peeves with shaved ice is that when it melts, you end up with a bland watery mess. No such problem with this!
I loved Ah Ba so much that I brought my parents there less than a week later. Unsurprisingly, they loved it too.
