Loving Hut

Top choice in Taipei


This cute, brightly lit and friendly place with yellow laminate tables offers a Taiwanese twist on pasta and Italian rice dishes using mushrooms, tofu and cashews. It's just behind Xindian MRT station, where the road of food carts begins. The desserts are famous – the vegan tiramisu has won awards. Note it is only open weekends and national holidays.

Try their vegan ice-cream in summer or bowls of creamy pumpkin soup on chillier days.
