The ningxia night market in singapore
Jan 2020 • Friends
The Qs are very long for all stores . Takes a long time to get food . Unless you are willing to wait and are not hungry , you might like to join the Qs.

The prices are expensive relatively to food court prices too .

Not a positive experience overall .

Good place to hang out and eat!
Feb 2020 • Couples
Went to this night market with my wife and had a lot of fun walking around eating food! If you want to experience authentic, roadside food carts this is one of the places to go in Taipei. Tip, take your time and eat a little bit of everything. Also try the regular restaurants along the road they are delicious as well.

Must go if you like Taiwanese street food
Feb 2023
We went there on our first day of arrival in Taipei. Great variety of Taiwan street food. It was very crowded on a Friday night. 2 rows of food stalls with quite a narrow walkway. Many different types of food from various parts of Taiwan. Definitely worth going despite the crowd. If you want to try a variety of Taiwanese street food, this is the night market to go!!

Small but easy to get around night market
Nov 2019 • Couples
We liked this night market because it was close to our hotel (near Taipei Main Station) and the booths were all pretty much on one street. The variety was really good, from chicken on a stick to taro balls to mochi sesame to fried rice to egg/oyster plate. The only down side is that some carts that were there the first day weren’t there the next day, so you may miss out on a favorite. Still worth the walk around.

Top tips for visiting Ningxia Nightmarket
Apr 2013 • Family
Tip 1: Go there with an empty stomach

Tip 2: The biggest mistake that everyone makes is settle for the first stall or first shop they saw when they enter the night market. What you need to do it walk the whole stretch of the market and then decide what you like to eat.

Tip 3: What kind of food do they have? Because this is Taipei city, they have the famous fried oyster omelette (a few shops along the stretch but be prepare to queue up), soy shredded chicken rice, pig trotter with fry vermicili and at some of the backstreets of ningxia market, you will find small llittle restaurants selling fresh sashimi. Away from the market, there is a shop that sells pork belly bun roll (Gua Bao).

Tip 4: This is actually the perfect street for foodie travellers because all the taipei food is congregated in this area.

Tip 5: Bring cash with you. No ATM card or credit card accepted.

Tip 6: There is a problem here, you cannot find a public toilet here so make sure you relieve yourself in the nearby pblic toilet in the shopping mall before you get here.

Tip 7: If you are staying in a hotel nearby, i suggest you walk to Ningxia market because the back alleys and streets are the perfect place to see the everyday life of a Taiwanese

High recommend travellers to visit this place. Food might not suit westerners but maybe a small bite or taste would be sufficient to satisfy their curiosity.

Worth a visit!
Dec 2014 • Friends
Forget about ShihLin night market, which is over-hyped and locals don't go anymore. Other than RaoHe night market, this is the next one to consider if you want to immerse yourself in the Taiwan night market atmosphere. Although smaller in scale compared to RaoHe night market, NingXia is still worth a visit, given that it has a number of eateries by the side with more than 10 years in operation.

Night Market Tips
Aug 2015
Night markets are always a great attraction for visitors to Taiwan. Ningxia is a great one to visit if you are around that area. Compared with the US, I would say you get better food for lower prices. A few tips for visiting night markets in general:

1. Some fruits may be sold at a higher than appropriate price. If you look like a foreigner, some merchants may sometimes assume that you don't know anything. Don't be fooled.
2. If your guts tell you that something is unsanitary, trust your intuition. Although I have not experienced food poisoning, it can happen if you are not careful.
3. Beware of pickpockets. Although Taiwan is generally safe in terms of violent crimes, theft is not uncommon. Avoid bringing anything that you cannot afford to lose if possible. If you have the habit of keeping your phone in your back pocket, I would caution you not to do it for your visit.
4. You will need cash for payment, but I consider $600 NT (roughly $20 USD) to be plenty for one visit. Also, because some of the mini games may be addicting, it is best to have limited cash on hand to help avoid too much impulse spending.
5. Stinky tofu tastes much better than it smells. Give it a try! However, don't sit near those stalls if you are trying to enjoy other food. If you plan to try this treat, mint gum or something that can help get rid of bad breath after you are finished will come in handy.

Local people from Taipei prefer going to Ningxia Night Market
Jan 2015 • Family
Six of our family members, three are local, made a visit to the Ningxia Night Market, the well-known night market for the local. We arrived at the height of time, at around 8.00 O'clock on the Saturday evening. The market was packed with people. There were hundreds of food stalls lining up along the road selling different kinds of exotic foods. Quite a few were well known to the public. For example, the one with a baby cot at one side of the store famous for 蚵仔煎 had a line of over 30 people! We didn't wait but went along with the tide of people, and at one time was completely on a standstill ! Hot food stores along the road we came across offered different styles and tastes. Those such as 排骨酥麵 煙燻空心鳳爪 胡椒蝦 貓耳朵 and 青蛙下蛋 were alien to us. Others like 臭豆腐 潤餅 虱目魚焿 attracted many visitors. Our local guide led us to a restaurant called the 感恩牛羊肉小館. According to her, this was the right place for us. We tried 清燉牛肉麵140元 紅油炒手65元 沙茶炒麵90元 及鷄肉養生鍋210元 . All were above our expectations and very delicious. We would like to recommend to all visitors that this Night Market is distinctive to the locals and no one will be disappointed of making a visit if you happen to be in Taipei.

Amazing foods street
May 2014 • Family
Second time I visited Taipei but we were 1st time came to Ningxia night market. We walk from our hotel at ZhongShan MRT Nanjing West Rd all the way to NingXia Rd, it was so easy to get here.

We reached about 8pm on a Tuesday night. Our plan was walk to the end of the street then only decide what we need to eat. There was too many food stalls till we felt hard to decide what we need to order!

So happen to saw (1) 刘芋仔蛋黄芋饼 Liu Yu Zai (fried yam paste ball with/ without eggs yolk) in a short queue, no doubt I joined the queue immediate since there was so many good reviews of it.
Personally we all prefer the one without eggs yolk; not really worth the waiting if queue is too long.

(2) 猪肝荣仔 Pork Liver Rong Zai
Normally we eat pig lungs thin slices, but this stall they cut it in thick slices! Nice experience with the mixed organ soup; for the dumpling, skip and save your tummy for some others food!

(3) 王牌炒烏龙 Wang Pai Udon Noodles
The steam oyster and fried clams in special sauce, highly recommend!
So fresh, so yummy and cheap! Half dozen of steam oyster only NT100!!

Our family had a enjoyable night in Ningxia night market. We wish to come back another night for our four days trip in Taipei but our schedule reserved for others restaurant. Definitely will come back again!

Great way to experience local culture and food
Dec 2013 • Family
Crowded with many food stalls selling good local fare, I would recommend this location if you want to experience Taiwan's great eats. The well known stalls are very popular - so pick the ones with queues and you won't go wrong. On the way to this market, we chanced upon a street side restaurant selling Japanese style food off food trolleys. This was also excellent.
