FEATURE: Photo zine features local breakfast cultureBy Sherry Hsiao / Staff reporterBefore the COVID-19 pandemic swept the globe in spring last year, Priscilla Young (楊曉嵐), the author of a new 32-page photography zine titled Breakfast Shop (早餐店), noticed a lack of Taiwanese breakfast options in her native San Francisco Bay area. Priscilla Young’s photo zine Breakfast Shop and traditional Taiwanese breakfast items are arranged in an undated photograph. Breakfast Shop, which was published late last month, is the product of that delicious pilgrimage and a love letter to Taiwanese breakfast food and culture. On Instagram, she has created the “breakfast__shop” account, which is meant to be a digital extension to Breakfast Shop. The vision for Breakfast Shop, which Young understands as an ongoing project, was to recognize the everyday as art, she said.
