At the southern entrance, where the mountains meet the sea, VUVU (an elder of the Paiwan Tribe) has passed down the "non-fried" cooking tradition through generations. They prepare crops and seasonal vegetables using methods such as boiling, smoking, and pickling. The dining table of the Paiwan people reflects the four seasons, infused with the aromas of a lifestyle intimately connected to the land.
As you pass through one tunnel after another, Route 9 in Taitung's Dahri Township meets the Pacific Ocean, shaking off the bustling traffic. It makes a winding turn into Anshuo Village, where the lush greens meet the vibrant blues. Nestled at the foot of Dawu Mountain, the Alangyi Tribe kitchen, run by the couple Luo Beiwen, is discreetly located at the southern edge of the small village. Here, they share the wisdom and lifestyle passed down through generations, utilizing the natural bounty of the mountains to convey their culture.
