Asia's most sinful cities
The best cities in Asia for indulging the devil on your shoulder
By Andrew Willis 20 April, 2011
Seven deadly sins -- seven lively Asian cities. We all stray off the path of
righteousness from time to time.
So if you're going to end up in hell due to a temptation to eat more than
your fair share of stinky tofu, take a detour to Taipei first. Or if pride's
your vice, take a turn toward Manila.
Click through the pages to see how these Asian cities take a sin and turn it
into a raison d'être.
1. Gluttony: Taipei, Taiwan
Two men, four chopsticks, myriad good reasons to eat out again.
Cheap eats, everywhere, day or night.
Taipei sports 18 streets dedicated to nothing other than food. Where you
might usually expect a bus shelter, instead you'll find a barbecue.
Sidewalks become snack stalls. The pungent smell of stinky tofu fills the
air.
Night markets in Taipei have become famous for their snack selections, or
xiaochi, literally meaning "small eats."
The dishes may be little, but so are the prices, running around US$1-2
dollars. A fat gut never came so easily.
2. Sloth: Seoul, South Korea
The digital "activity" of Seoul's gamer havens.
When South Koreans are not racking up overtime, they're collecting bandwidth
fees.
Seoul’s Internet has been honed, sculpted, streamlined and sped up to such
a degree that no one really needs to move, at all, ever, except maybe when
the orc hordes descend in "World of Warcraft" and some rapid double-clicking
is required.
South Korea has been ranked the 15th laziest country in the world (and the
first in Asia) by The Daily Beast. And there's every reason to assume they'
ll get even lazier.
A recently proposed government policy seeks to advance digital technology in
the capital, partly influenced by demand for online gaming and streaming
video, and will take Internet speeds to 1,000 Mbps by 2012.
So if some of the 39 million connected South Koreans wanted to emulate their
favourite national soccer heroes, they may as well just do it via "FIFA
Manager."
3. Pride: Manila, Philippines
The only men in the world who call out their own name in bed.
Much is made about the loveliness of the Filipino female. But you wouldn't
know it by talking to the Filipino men -- they're too busy gazing lustfully
into the mirror.
According to a study from Synovate, Filipino men are the most narcissistic
in Asia. A whopping 48 percent consider themselves sexually attractive.
And if the ladies reading this think the guys' encounters with the brow
tweazers are for your benefit, sorry -- nine out of 10 Filipino men polled
said they liked to look good for themselves, not anyone else.
By way of comparison, just 25 percent of men in Singapore considered
themselves sexually attractive, 17 percent in China and Taiwan and a measly
12 percent of Hong Kong guys think the same.
4. Greed: Shenzhen, China
Bigger, faster, stronger, richer.
The financial crisis is for suckers.
When everyone else was tightening the belts, Shenzhen carried on regardless,
pumping out billions of dollars worth of high-tech products.
Shenzhen is one of the fastest growing cities in the world, with a
provincial GDP of US$42 billion -- that's more than some countries such as
Guatemala and Lebanon, and four times more than Iceland.
Meanwhile, China's millionaires keep millionairing -- it won't be long
before there are 1 million U.S. dollar millionaires in the country, guided
by Shenzhen's philosophy: if you can't make a million, make a billion.
5. Lust: Tokyo, Japan
Whatever tickles your fancy, Tokyo delivers.
Japan's sex industry is worth an estimated ¥2.5 trillion (US$30 billion
), second only to the country's automobile industry. Is there any
competition?
According to “Pink Box” author Joan Sinclair, “Japan offers absolutely
everything imaginable.”
From gratuitous puke porn (and worse) to the barely titillating maid cafes,
Tokyo is like a dirty old man in a teenager's body. But one who celebrates
his lewd desires with the gusto of an exhibitionist poodle on heat.
Head here to indulge your fetishes or simply to have yourself bathed by a
pretty young thing in a uniform.
6. Envy: New Delhi, India
Leaving on a jet plane, don't want to come back again.
More Indians emigrated in 2010 than any other nationality in the world
except for Mexicans, according to the World Bank's Migration and Remittances
Factbook 2011.
Some 11.4 million Indians headed elsewhere to find a better life, drawn by
the lure of things done properly.
India, and its capital New Delhi, has the world's worst case of grass-is-
greener syndrome.
7. Wrath: Pyongyang, North Korea
So much fun to be had as the scourge of all peace-loving nations.
Pugnacious, belligerent, quarrelsome ... the North Korean capital is the
moody adolescent of the continent. But unlike most spotty delinquents who
express their angry insecurities by piercing body parts or coloring their
hair, this one sinks ships and shells islands.
North Korea's national sport is Taekwondo. If there's a food shortage, the
military get served first. Propaganda films talk of the "invincible power"
of the North Korean army and posters in the capital state, "The way to peace
is on the point of a bayonet."
Its army comprises nearly 1 million troops, out of a nation of 24 million.
Still, the Dear Leader Kim Jong Il does claim to have made the world's best
ever golf score -- an astonishing 38 under par on a regulation 18-hole
course incuding five holes-in-one. And that on his first ever attempt, too.
Perhaps he's not so bad.

Street food foray into Taiwan's night markets
The 10 best dishes from Taiwan's night markets -- made to make your mouth
water
By Derrick Chang 24 January, 2011
OK, you don't go to a night market for a sumptuous feast worthy of Michelin
stars and postcards home. But in Taiwan, the imagination and innovation on
display in even some of its simplest snack stalls is something to behold.
Its night markets are run through with traditional foods, deliberately
unchanged for generations, right next to food hawkers deconstructing and
reconstructing street food essentials into something that's at least worth a
quick email (or article).
So here's a quick tour of the top night markets in four major cities around
Taiwan, and their most salivatory dishes.
Stinky tofu
Shares the same love or hate relationship most people have with durian.
Stinking, fermented tofu is deep fried and served with pickled cabbage,
carrots and chili sauce.
I hated stinky tofu when I tried it in mainland China, Hong Kong and other
Chinatowns around Asia, but I love Taiwan’s version. It’s sold everywhere
in Taiwan, so just head towards that stink you smell at the night market.
Get your stinky tofu at: Raohe night market, Taipei
Rice/Taiwanese sausage
Rice sausage wrapped with Taiwanese sausage. Sticky rice is stuffed into
sausage casing, grilled, cut open and is used as the ‘bun’ for the
traditional sweet Taiwanese sausage. You won’t mistake it for street meat
from New York City, but it’s pretty good.
For all your rice sausage needs: Ruifeng night market, Kaohsiung
Coffin bread
A specialty from the night markets of Tainan, a slice of thick-cut white
bread is deep fried to a golden crisp then the top is cut open and creamy
seafood chowder is poured in. Think of it as Tainan’s version of the San
Francisco bread-bowl chowder.
Coffin scoffin' best at: Xiaobei night market, Tainan
Deep fried prawns
The key to any deep-fried savory dish is crispy outside, soft on the inside,
and this snack from Tainan does it perfectly. Freshly caught prawns are
battered and insta-deep fried and served with a sweet brown sugar sauce,
pickled ginger and wasabi for a sweet, sour, nose-clearing finish.
Find them at: Xiaobei night market, Tainan
Stewed pork rice
Pork belly or shoulder is slowly stewed with no fewer than 10 ingredients
from the morning hours until the night market opens. It’s an open secret
that the sauce that’s unused the day before is used the next day -- and
that’s why it tastes so good.
In northern Taiwan, the pork is minced while in the south they use pork
cubes. This is a very commonly eaten dish on the night-market circuit.
Sometimes shredded chicken is added to a bowl of stewed pork rice.
The most delicious part of: Dai Tian Gong night market, Kaohsiung
Baked black pepper pork
Baked black pepper pork pockets are the star snack at the popular Rao He
night market in Taipei. Just outside the Ci You Temple, a small army of
workers make these savory mouthfuls of goodness by baking them against the
wall of a clay oven.
There is always a long line but once the pork pockets emerge hot, steaming
and salty-good, you'll be ready to start queuing all over again.
Look for the ovens at: Raohe night market, Taipei
Scallion pancakes
Although served in many parts of China, Taiwan’s version of this much loved
Chinese classic is deep fried rather than pan fried and has a less doughy
texture than the traditional green onion pancakes. These scallion pancakes
are sold at most night markets in Taiwan.
Scallion champions: Liuhe night market, Kaohsiung
Squid stuffed with risotto
Perhaps inspired by an Italian recipe book, this snack from Taichung’s
famed Feng Jia night market, Taiwan’s biggest, features pan-fried risotto,
stuffed into a whole squid, then deep fried to an al dente crisp and topped
off with sweet Dijon mustard and mayonnaise sauce.
It’s large enough to be a meal in itself but don't go sharing this bad-boy
with anyone -- there are plenty to go round!
Gobble 'em down at: Feng Jia night market, Taichung
Barbecued anything
Seafood of all kinds, chicken wings, cow’s stomach, tofu in all shapes and
sizes, snake beans ... your culinary imagination is the only limit when it
comes to the Taiwanese night market barbecue.
You have a choice of dipping sauces too: a sweet and sour brown sugar sauce,
sweet chili pepper sauce and sha cha (dried shrimp) chili sauce. Some
customers don’t dip into any sauce at all and I can attest that it still
tastes great. Barbecue stalls are popular at all night markets in Taiwan.
Best found at: Feng Jia night market, Taichung
Sweet glass rice dumplings
Dessert may not be at the top of the average Chinese diner’s mind but this
delicate dessert is a great way to finish off your culinary foray into the
night markets.
These dumplings are made with twice-steamed rice flour and you can choose
from glass dumplings filled with red bean, green tea, egg custard, taro and
even green tea mochi flavor. These dumplings are at most night markets in
Taiwan but the southern Taiwanese, with a sweet tooth that would make Willy
Wonka proud, make them best.
Seek them out at: Liuhe night market, Kaohsiung
