Here’s something savory for a change: Crispy bak kwa — paper-thin strips of pork jerky mixed with almonds for a nutty and crunchy twist. This is a salty-sweet snack that locals and foreigners just couldn’t get enough of. You’ll find out why when you get a taste of it.

Where to buy: The best crispy bak kwa in town can be found in Kuai Che, a Taiwanese specialty store, which has branches littered across Taipei. They’re packed in vacuum-sealed plastic bags, so you wouldn’t have to worry about stashing them in your luggage.
