Tips

culture
豆花 (also called 豆腐花) is silky unpressed tofu eaten as dessert or breakfast. The great divide: southerners and Taiwanese eat it sweet (ginger syrup, peanuts, taro balls); northerners and Sichuanese eat it savory (soy sauce, chili oil, pickled vegetables). The vs debate is half-serious, half-meme.
