Breakfast of Champions

I thought I knew something about Chinese food before I moved here: I'd done Dim Sum, been to Chinese New Year dinners, and James occasionally made me congee.

Of course, I only had to be in Taiwan a matter of days to realize I barely scratched the surface in the States.

I never had a green onion pancake before moving here - an oily flatbread made with minced green onions, and sometimes fried with an egg. They're available at most breakfast shops for about $30NT ($1 U.S.). Now I eat them at least once a week.

I would go buy one right now except the breakfast place downstairs is already closed for the day.
