Pingtung’s primary industry is tea cultivation, and the town offers a variety of tea-flavored dishes. If you visit Pingtung, we recommend trying the tea‑oil vermicelli: the aroma of tea paired with the refreshing white noodles will make you bite after bite. In addition to tea‑oil vermicelli, the local cuisine also features tea‑bean dumplings, tea‑bean red‑bean mochi, and tea jelly. Visiting the hometown of tea, you can taste a whole array of tea‑infused dishes all at once. Moreover, the many tea gift boxes make for great souvenirs. Another Pingtung specialty is the tea‑flavored fish ball soup. The process starts by finely crushing selected tea leaves, which are then mixed with high‑quality pork mince to create a perfect combination. The finished tea‑flavored fish balls have a unique texture—lighter and less greasy than traditional fish balls, with a crisp and elastic bite. When you bite into a ball, the tea aroma spreads, complemented by shredded celery and the shop’s specially simmered broth, leaving a lingering fragrance that’s truly satisfying!
