Dr. Priya and Dr. Sana are going on a shopping spree in Taiwan! Trinity Indian Store is a time-honored brand in Taipei that’s been offering all the necessary ingredients for Indian home cooking since the early nineties. The influx of spices and other products now supports several Indian restaurants, too. Guanghua Commercial District is a great place to compare prices on quality consumer electronics from Taiwanese manufacturers like Asus. Syntrend Creative Park next store is where you’ll find the latest and greatest technology like artificial intelligence, drones or gaming devices. After shopping, the evening winds down at Bangka Night Market with the best of Taiwanese food. Mung beans and rajma are enjoyed as a dal but, in Taiwan, the preparations are an ice dessert. Salty fried chicken works well with spicy sauces reminiscent of Indian pakora. Scallion pancakes are the Taiwanese answer to paratha from northern India. Fresh mangoes with plum powder make a perfect finish to this lovely fusion meal.
