Broadway Cinema. Movie: “Tag”. Most venues in Taiwan allow you to bring snacks from outside, we bought ours in front of the cinema.
Snack is called 章魚燒 and these are 6 or 9 balls of fried flour with cabbage and pieces of octopus inside of them. They are served with wasabi and mayonnaise. Price: 45NT – US$1.5
Ambassador Cinema. Movie: “Isle of dogs”.  Snack we got was a set: ice black tea and churros. Set number 4. Churros are basically fried dough dipped in sugar.
Price: 110NT$ – US$3.8
Vieshow Cinema. Movie: “Skyscraper”.
This time we went for drinks as snacks. They are quite “thick” as there are various kinds of teas with tapioca balls and pieces of fruits in them. These are classic, famous Taiwanese drinks called 珍珠奶茶 – bubble tea.
Price: 45NT per each – US$1.5
