NEIGHBORHOOD 17 / EAST SIDE

Wuxing & Zhuangjing

吳興・莊敬

A small roaster on the southern side of Taipei 101.

South of the high-rise shopping district, the Zhuangjing lanes have a more residential rhythm. Fugu supplies the coffee reason to visit, with the neighborhood streets as the rest of the outing.

MAKE AN AFTERNOON OF IT

Start at Fugu for a hand brew, then explore the Zhuangjing and Wuxing streets. Continue toward Taipei 101 on foot if you want a skyline contrast; there is no need to add another café to make the trip worthwhile.

Fugu is the small-roaster alternative on the residential side of Taipei 101. The local specialty-coffee association describes a Japanese-influenced café with house roasting, making this a useful place to focus on a brewed coffee away from the mall circuit.

OUR SUGGESTED ORDER

A single-origin hand brew and, if useful, beans for home.

Before you goApproach from Zhuangjing Road, Lane 341. This is south of the main Xinyi department stores.
