...Biff's Pitas, a street stall that opened one month ago and has seen customers lining up to dig into some of the tastiest pitas in town. The owner, who calls himself Biff Cappuccino, is a Canadian who has lived in Scotland, Nigeria, Ireland, Uganda, the US and has spent the last two decades in Taiwan.
...My father had a tradition where he would never cook the same meal twice in one month," Biff said. "He loved to experiment preparing foods from different countries." Though the menu at Biff's is fixed, he said he applied his father's ethos by experimenting with his cooking methods before arriving at his current creations, which reflect his interest in Asian flavors.
...The proprietor says he can make his sandwiches as spicy or mild as the customer wants. My favorites are the Madras curry chicken and the Mexico Jalapeno chicken, extra spicy.

This is one of our new Chinese fliers to spread the word, the glad tidings, the gospel of pita or some other such biz buzzwordy gobbledygook. All part of the learning curve. We'll be assembling a youtube rap video soon too. All part of the acquired shamelessness of bartering one's soul. Well I's be loving it so far. Biff...

A brace of happy campers all around. Note the ambrosia induced euphoria on one of our victims... ha...
Regular Fries (NT$35) and Szechuan Mala Sub (NT$55)

Howdy: We've opened a stall selling Pita sandwiches (NT$55) and fried potato wedges (NT$35 and up) down by National Taiwan Normal University. We're at 121-1 Shi Da Road, right next to the second Watsons Drugstore, the one located near the intersection with Roosevelt Road. Our pitas are whole wheat and come in four rich Silk Road flavors (Madras, Xinjiang cumin, Fennel seed, Szechuan Mala) of grilled chicken plus lots of sour cream, chopped cherry tomatoes, cukes, etc. Potato wedges are deep fried and come in regular salt & pepper (NT$35) or with a creamy basil sauce (NT$50). Subs are made from quality unsweetened bread and come in the same flavors as our pita sandwiches. A fried beef and maybe even a vegetarian menu are in the pipeline. C'mon over!
