Detroit-style pepperoni pizza from Pizza Bear Songshan in Taipei - very good - I spoke with the owner, and he mentioned they make their own pepperoni in house

Been several years since I've been in Taipei, and this makes we want to visit the ROC! I've been itching to visit the National Palace Museum again, probably one of my favorite museum venues.

Amazing looking meal! Hard to tell from a picture, but the fish and chips look very much like the incredible ones we get here on the north coast. The fries look awesome. Yum!

Not too bad at all. That's looks delicious! I'll try to order a pizza for next month. Only 1 time a month, but not all the times. I will try to something different.

I used to casually make Detroit pizza (using shop pizza dough) during the pandemic. Time to start trying again…
