      TAIPEI — Under a moonlit canopy of bare trunk branches, two men in black leather jackets lean against a brick wall. Their exchange is wordless, with only slow movements forward: A lingering gaze, twice over the right shoulder. A hand, stretching over the tense distance between them. One’s fingertips meet the other’s thigh, gradually wrapping around as a claim over the other’s body for the night. But just as a breeze rustles the canopy above, the other clicks his tongue almost inaudibly. He pushes himself off the wall and away from the grips of this dark park corner, emerging into the streetlamp-lit expanse of Taipei’s streets.  

      I think of this scene, from the Taiwanese film “Where is the Love?” by the queer woman director Chen Jo-fei, whenever I walk through Tranquility Park, formerly known as New Park, in main Taipei. In the latter half of the 20th century, it was one of the city’s most well-known gay cruising districts, where men picked up other men through a social code of gazes and grazes.

        Experiencing Taiwanese Food

        Taiwanese cuisine knows many influences from Japanese and Chinese cuisine and many from specific (southern) Chinese regions. One of Taiwan&#x;s specialties is soup dumpling, Xiao Long Bao. These aren&#x;t just dumplings, because their skin is really thin and filled with tasty broth and meat, fish and/or vegetables. The first Xiao Long Bao comes from Shanghai, but the Taiwanese hold perfected the recipe. The superior restaurant to eat the finest soup dumplings is Din Tai Fung. The original restaurant is located on Xinyi Road in Taipei. Another dish you must try is Taiwanese beef noodle soup! If you like eating street food, stinky tofu is a must-try. It&#x;s a strong-smelling fermented tofu, which you can find in night markets or food stalls on the streets. Another world-famous thing you can&#x;t miss in Taiwan: bubble tea. Since its invention in the s, it has become increasingly popular and you can now find it all over the world. It&#x;s a tea-based liquid with milk, sugar (optional) and chewy tapioca pearls.
