Text & photos byMr. Tainan

A limited-edition hidden menu item exclusive to strawberry season, available only in limited quantities each day—come late and you’ll miss out. These crispy-outside, soft-inside hot-pressed toasts are filled with fresh strawberries and rich custard sauce. The strawberries are big and not too sour, making them incredibly satisfying.

The T&F handmade toast flagship store is on Datong Road, while the Anping branch just opened in early October.

Outdoor seating is available, surrounded by lots of flowers and plants—visible effort has gone into beautifying the space.

Stepping inside is even more eye-catching, with a dazzling array of colorful dried flowers that brighten the mood.

Dried flowers also hang by the windows—no wonder many Instagram-worthy trendsetters have been flocking here to take photos lately.

The shop owners put extra care into painting a map of Anping on the wall, helping out-of-town visitors quickly find nearby food and attractions.

Top 8 toast flavors—if you can’t decide, just pick from these.

Even the layered drinks have a top 6 popularity ranking.

The owner’s homemade popcorn comes in a bucket design with great moisture resistance, free from preservatives and trans fats. There are as many as 13 flavors: original, original with sea salt, caramel, blueberry, cheese, brown sugar, chocolate, strawberry, sesame, seaweed, curry, Science Ramen, and Korean BBQ.

Menu—with nearly 70 toast flavors, you won’t get tired of them even if you eat them every day.

Combo meals offer even better value.

The rich, multi-layered textures make it easy to fall in love after just one bite. Introductory price: 80 TWD.

Strawberry Lait: To enjoy the strawberry season limited edition, pair it with a bottle of Strawberry Lait—a strawberry jam with actual strawberry bits mixed with milk, made without a single drop of water. The sweet and tangy blend tastes just like love.

The salad isn’t an afterthought—the ingredients are clearly fresh.

Pearl Custard: the pearls are tender yet chewy, and the custard sauce is sweet without being cloying.

German Sausage: one bite releases a burst of aroma, with a very bouncy texture. Paired with honey mustard sauce, it’s increasingly appetizing.

Matcha Brownie: marshmallows and chocolate deliver sweetness, with a subtle matcha finish.

Cocoa Marshmallow: captivating cocoa aroma, rich but not overly sweet.

Brown Sugar Milk: the brown sugar sweetness is just right, perfectly balanced with fresh milk.
