Evening Snacks - Wagon Wheels & Bubble Tea

They call these 'wagon wheels' and they're filled with red bean, dry radish, or 'milk' which is a custard, and they are beyond good. Night food in Taipei is unbelievable.


Here some delicious sauce is added to the dry radish. It's fun to watch the assembly line and it's amazing how the vendor can keep track of which flavor goes to each customer. I was having daydreams of moving to Taiwan and owning my own wagon wheel snack cart.


Here a special little tool helps pop out the finished product.


Hello. I am the wagon wheel spokesperson.


Okay here's the inside of the dry radish wheel. They're best eaten warm cuz if you wait too long then the dough part gets soft... here it was nice and crisp - YUM!


Now I'm trying the milk one.


And here's what it looks like. Biting into warm custard through the crisp outer layer is pretty amazing.


Oh bubble tea... I had the milky green tea with extra chewy gelatin balls, and Katrina had the grapefruit with clear & fruity gelatin slivers.
