Keelung, officially known as Keelung City (Chinese: 基隆市; pinyin: Jīlóng Shì), is a major port city situated in the northeastern part of Taiwan. It borders New Taipei with which it forms the Taipei–Keelung metropolitan area, along with Taipei itself. Nicknamed the Rainy Port for its frequent rain and maritime role, the city is Taiwan's second largest seaport (after Kaohsiung).

基隆夜市の奥の方のお店です。
炒麺(チャーメン)のお店。しかも、ここはカレー味の炒麺で有名。
座って食べられます。(落ち着かないけど)
炒麺はかなり炒めてあるので、カレー味を吸って美味しい。コシは全くありませんけど。
ごちそうさまでした。

Yi Mei Buffet Hot Pot

Reviewed By GOCHECK123 - Keelung, Taiwan

This restaurant serves old-fashion hot pot. The waiter first heats up sesame oil and fries onion and then all slices of meat. The smell is incredibly good! I am recommending it to anyone who wants to have traditional hot pot here in Taiwan.

Zhou Jia Soybean Milk

Reviewed By Ruth M - Wilmslow, United Kingdom

It was after 12.30 when we arrived here & approaching closing time. A customer was buying 30 pancakes & explained that these were what was left & no more were being made. But she kindly offered to let us buy 2. We devoured them & wished we’d arrived earlier. Only NT34 for both of them. So delicious & cheap. Try them yourself but don’t leave it late (like we did) or the place will be closed.

Little Mongolian Spicy Hot Pot - Xinyi

Reviewed By gogirlIdaho - Idaho

It took some effort to find this restaurant as it is on the 32nd floor of a shopping mall and hotel tower about 8 blocks or so from the Keelung train station and takes two elevators to access but once inside it's a comfortable setting with high rise views. The menu is "all you can eat" in a two hour setting for $15 USD. We struggled to understand the English translation, but basically you request which broths, and then choose the food in flights. Everything was fresh and the broths were tasty without being overspiced.

不用說,芋泥球很好吃,但我個人私心大推「芋頭雪露」,也就是芋頭西米露,真的很好吃喔,冰冰涼涼加上芋頭甜香,一小杯的份量並不會太多,夏天時拿來當下午的小點心超級心滿意足!

Tasty Steak (Keelung Zhongzheng Branch)

Reviewed By TJX05 - Singapore, Singapore

Was very impressed with their service staff. We even had a dedicated waiter to serve us.
We were celebrating our wedding anniversary and our pictures were taken and then given to us in a nice cardboard picture stand.
We were given extra servings of cakes and pastries so our 6 course dinner became 7 course. The food was tasty indeed and par excellent. Loved the steak and the pork chop.
Definitely worth the price which is pretty reasonable.

The service, food, price, presentation and ambience were absolutely perfect. I tried several restaurants but was unable to read their menu (not in English) and they could not converse in English either. Tokiya delivered excellently with both and their service was perfect. I strongly recommend this restaurant.

基隆に行く度に必ず寄ります。店番号が31番なので個人的に掛布のルーロー飯と

味が濃厚でうまい!夜市巡りで他も回りたいので、いつもお椀一杯に留めています
が、いつかはガッツリ大盛りを食べたいですね。
