This is my wish-to-eat list compiled with the help of Johor Kaki blog readers. (Thank you everyone, appreciate you much 😄 ) This target list is for my upcoming Taipei & Taichung trip - I have not eaten at any of these places before. When I return home, I will blog with details about my favourites from this trip.

I will update this list as more suggestions come in, especially missing are Halal certified eateries at the moment. Keep your suggestions coming! 😄
