Excellent brunch with variety of food

I spent over 5 hours with Garen combining a food tour with historic treasures of Taipei. It was outstanding!!! We visited a local market. Everything what Garen recommended me to try was very tasty. Garen is very knowledgeable and well articulated. I really enjoyed our conversations about local food, culture, traditions and history. Highly recommended!!!
