On May 7, 2025, MICHELIN Guide Taiwan 2025 announced that three new locations, New Taipei City, Hsinchu City, and Hsinchu City, have been included in the guide for the first time. Each location offers unique food cultures, from temple snacks to innovative cuisines, fishing village flavors to mountain specialties, and classic home cooking to high-end business fare. Whether common delicacies or exquisite feasts, they all highlight the rich diversity of Taiwan's seasonal ingredients. The cuisines of these three places not only blend the essence of different cultures, but also preserve food traditions passed down from generation to generation, showing the unique culinary charm of Taiwan to the world.
The Tourism Administration has a 10-year plan to brand Taiwanese cuisine globally. When the first MICHELIN Guide Taiwan was released in March 2018, Taipei City was the only city in Taiwan to be included. Three other cities were subsequently added: Taichung City, Tainan City, and Kaohsiung City. The new locations in the latest edition add more highlights to Taiwan's food landscape. This is not only a positive recognition of the food culture and its development in various parts of Taiwan, but also highlights the positive effect of the phased government programs. These are all part of the new guide produced by MICHELIN’s professional evaluators.
Chou Yong-Hui, Director-General of the Tourism Administration, Ministry of Transportation and Communications, noted that Taiwan has accelerated the branding of cuisines at new locations after the pandemic. Today’s announcement of three new locations has again expanded the food map of the MICHELIN Guide Taiwan. This not only showcases the vitality of different cities, their local food cultures and unique charms, but also highlights the diverse flavors and characteristics of food from all over Taiwan. This brings new opportunities to Taiwan's catering and tourism industries. Chou believes that the seven locations of Taipei City, New Taipei City, Hsinchu County, Hsinchu City, Taichung City, Tainan City, and Kaohsiung City will bring new energy to Taiwan's food culture and tourism industry and be a "Lucky 7." This will help further build Taiwan’s position in the global food industry, and make it an even more attractive tourist destination.
