There are two reasons why you may want to hop on a Taiwan bound plane these days.  First because they have just been the latest country (and the first Asian nation) to legalize same sex marriage for which we heartily congratulate them.  Secondly, it’s the home of  26 year old Chen Yitin who has become known as the “hottest bean curd seller” in the country.

Yitin works a stall which belongs to his godfather in the Beitou district of Taipei called “Most Traditional Bean Curd Flower.” It evidently specializes in Chinese pudding made of soft tofu drenched in sugar syrup, but judging by Yitin’s six pack there must be other healthier options on the menu too.  It’s worth asking, and at the same time seeing if he would be interested in taking advantage of the new marriage law. Nothing better than having your own source of hot bean curds at home.  Right?
