Grocery Stores and Supermarkets

All Hypermarkets such as Carrefour and RT Mart have a grocery section. In general these are the best balance between convenience and finding what you want.

Wellcome Supermarkets are found throughout Taipei, and will have certain staples but the selection is not impressive. The exception is the branch at the Miramar in Neihu. This branch has more imports and a better selection in general.

There are some specialty grocery stores. Most well known is Jason's Market with a branch in the basement of the Taipei 101 shopping center. They have another branch in Tianmu in the basement of Dayeh Takashimaya Dept. Store, Zhongcheng Rd., Sec. 2, No. 55 忠誠路二55. They have probably the best selection of hard to find western food items. Needless to say, some of their products are expensive. They also have a decent selection of wine and beer.

There is a small specialty grocery store in Zhonghe.

Another specialty grocery store is the City Super located on Dunhua S. Rd. near the Fareastern Plaza Hotel. Details pending.

There is also a City Super in the basement of SOGO at Zhongxiao-Fuxing MRT. There is a Breeze Super at the bottom of Breeze Center (on Fuxing N Rd, just north of the Zhongxiao-Fuxing MRT). Next to Breeze Super there is a Dean and Delucca (very small shop with chocolates, wines, jams, bakery).
