At the upcoming Paris Olympics, Team Taiwan will have a secret weapon: a taste of home. A special cafeteria is up and running outside the Olympic Village, to make familiar foods available to Taiwan’s athletes. Beef noodles and braised pork rice are just some of the home comforts on the menu.

It’s because when athletes go abroad to compete, they often can’t find food that suits their taste. But now it just so happens that we’ve got a food station that serves up familiar meals, to help keep the athletes steady.
Badminton player Tai Tzu-ying is already in Paris for training. On social media, she shared a photo of a beef bowl topped with a tea egg and greens. She called it a welcome treat after a grueling practice session. Fellow badminton player Lee Chia-hsin also posted about her meal: curry chicken with a tea egg. Table tennis player Cheng I-ching shared a shot of braised pork and water spinach, saying that, quote, “Taiwanese flavors have saved my Taiwanese stomach.”
