Travel Center / Comprehensive Report

Doumen Fried Mantou enjoys high recognition across Taiwan. In a small alley near Taichung’s Eastern Sea commercial district, there’s also a local golden sweetened condensed milk mantou spot. Unlike typical fried mantou simply drizzled with sweetened condensed milk, besides the classic flavor, you can also choose strawberry, matcha, chocolate sauce, or even the indulgent cheese flavor.

This shop is located in a rather hidden spot, so visitors may need to spend a little time finding it. Though the space is small, it exudes a warm and cozy vibe. The golden, crispy fried mantou is not only topped with sweetened condensed milk but also drizzled with caramel sauce, and the staff will advise you to cut the mantou slightly for easier eating with a bamboo fork. Freshly fried, the mantou is perfectly soft and crispy without being too greasy — a must-order dish when visiting.

The most recommended flavor is the tempting cheese one, but it’s advised to eat it right after purchase, as fried snacks are best enjoyed while hot. By the way, all the sweetened condensed milk used in the shop is homemade by the owners, so when you taste it, the perfect blend of sweetened condensed milk and syrup is truly a delight you shouldn’t miss out on.
