Tour of 'Tofu Capital' ShenKeng Old Street (深坑老街) in central New Taipei City in northern Taiwan during our visit on Feb. 28, 2014.

Formerly an agricultural and mining town, it is now famous for its numerous tofu restaurants and vendors. ShenKeng's economy is centred around tourism which is primarily based largely on tofu. The district is well-known in culinary circles and has been a subject of media interest in Japan and Hong Kong. The tofu from ShenKeng has an unusual ratio of soybean to gypsum, giving it a yellowish color and distinctive flavor.
