The Liberty Times Editorial: Taiwan’s cuisine hits world stageThe Michelin Guide, a benchmark in gastronomy, last month released its Bib Gourmand list featuring 141 inexpensive eateries in Taipei, Taichung, Tainan and Kaohsiung. With promotion by international media, the quality and status of Taiwanese cuisine are likely to rise again. Taiwanese cuisine has officially arrived on the world stage. Taiwanese cuisine received perhaps its most significant boost when former president Chen Shui-bian (陳水扁) was elected in 2000. The inclusion of so many Taiwanese eateries in the latest edition of the Bib Gourmand list should help to foster mass appeal for Taiwanese cuisine.
