As the hot summer arrives, eating ice is a must-do activity for many to beat the heat. A shop called "I Want to Eat Ice" located in Taipei's Da’an District has sparked heated discussions online since its opening in June. Its biggest highlight is a fire-on-ice dessert that looks like an iceberg. This bowl, called "True White Mountain Range" fire-on-ice, features orange liqueur flambé paired with lemon meringue, offering a cloud-like texture with a hint of alcohol flavor, topped with a specially made rich homemade caramel sauce. The combination of ice and fire in the diner’s mouth is quite eye-catching. The "True White Mountain Range" fire-on-ice is currently only available at night, and you can witness the volcano only after 7 PM every day.
