There is not a very big difference between breakfast meals in Taiwan and China. Simple egg dishes are a bit more popular in Taiwan. Mostly, simple breakfast sandwiches or grilled egg sandwiches filled with greasy Spam-like meat on bland white bread is consumed during the morning hour.
Of course, China’s morning dim sum is the defining breakfast tradition on the island.
Some dim sum breakfast favorites in Taiwan are dan bing (rolled egg pancakes with onion), man tou (steamed bread), fan tuan (rice roll-ups), tang bao (soup-filled dumplings), potstickers and baozi (steamed buns stuffed with pork and vegetables) or you tiao. These delights are usually served with soy sauce or chili sauce.
