The quick read
Why go
Wusheng is the traditionalist's pick, an old-line local market in West Central that predates Tainan's mega-markets and still feels like it. Less English, more regulars, and food priced for the neighborhood rather than the tour bus.
The order here starts with old-style milk tea and stinky tofu hot pot, then crispy chicken and a fruit slush for the road. If you have already done Garden on a previous trip and want the version Tainan keeps for itself, this is it.
What to eat
- Traditional milk tea
