"Adding more fuel" to the fire that is World Cup fever? Hotpot restaurants are favored by locals during the football season.
This Taiwanese restaurant is famous for its varieties of tofu and its flavorful spicy soup base that is stewed from mild Chinese herbs and chili peppers.
Good for the empty stomach and good for the health? Sounds like a win-win solution.
Their "bread tofu" is offered free and in unlimited quantities, and their "ice cream tofu" doesn’t melt even after boiling in the hot pot for minutes. Tripod King opens late till 2 am, and their take-away service is strongly recommended.
