This breakfast spot near Technology Building MRT Station offers Danish toast, and their must-try marinated pork belly Danish toast comes with special cured meat, plenty of fresh vegetables, a fried egg, tomato slices, cheese, and a drizzle of honey mustard—making it a high-value breakfast option.

[Popular Teriyaki Chicken Cheese Egg Toast] NT$80

The shop’s signature popular teriyaki chicken cheese egg toast features a special mustard mayonnaise for added flavor layers. The teriyaki chicken thigh is well-seasoned, tender, and not dry, with just the right taste. You can choose between a fully cooked or sunny-side-up egg. All fillings are combined with cheese and pressed hot, resulting in a crispy toast exterior—no wonder it’s a fan favorite. The shop also frequently introduces new flavors, including both savory and sweet options.

【French Toast Menu】NT$45-65

Chen Gen’s French Toast is a well-known breakfast spot near Taipei 101. It’s said to be the result of a reformed gangster story—the owner used to be involved in underworld activities but decided to turn over a new leaf after starting a family, teaming up with his wife to run this breakfast shop. This long-running eatery often sees customers lining up for a taste. Their French toast is a popular item, customizable with your choice of fillings. Unlike typical versions, the toast here has egg mixture fully absorbed into the bread, with the exterior pan-fried to remove excess oil while staying moist. A drizzle of honey adds a delightful sweet-and-salty finish that leaves a lasting impression.

Baopu’s Golden Brick Oven Toast is tucked away in the alleys near Taipei’s back railway station, and their generous servings of toast are incredibly filling.
