Chang's Sausage

Taiwanese people seem to have an incurable obsession with sausages as the island used to abound with sausage sellers. Like bubble tea shops, you could find them pretty much at every corner. Unfortunately, these nostalgic stands begin to disappear as the years go on, but if you ever crave for some yummilicious sausages, Chang’s Sausage that has been around in Hualien for more than forty years will definitely pamper your palate.

The sticky rice sausages at Chang’s are one of a kind, whose filling is enclosed in the intestines of pigs, instead of artificial casing. Being grilled on the coal grill over the fire gives it an extra smoky taste. Order a plate of bouncy Taiwanese sausages and sticky rice sausages, add a bit of spicy sauce and pickled cabbage, which happens to bring balance to the slightly greasy sausages. After more than four decades, Chang’s Sausage tucked away in a back alley is still a street delight that many partake in and why wouldn’t you?
