Looking for Kitchen Gear in Taiwan

[banzai_burrito]

So, I'm currently in Taiwan for some personal stuff. Want to get out of the house cause let's face it, when you haven't been back in almost 2 decades and you get that call, it's ******* depressing.

Trying to get some suggestions on what gear is a good buy here, i.e. imported stuff from Japan might be cheaper (been looking for a nice donabe, thin carbon steel cookware, nicer aluminum cookware, kitchen tools, etc.)

Maybe there are some Japanese knife stores around?

Pretty much just looking for suggestions on neat things to get. I'll be buying some extra luggage anyway since I kinda flew with just a go bag.

Currently in southern part near Kaoshiung, will be back up in Taipei / Taoyuan when I fly back

Thanks y'all

I know this store here, tho they are not cheaper from what I can see on their website.

Maybe check out this place? 菜刀王製刀廠-菜刀工廠,台中菜刀工廠

I'll be visiting Taiwan in two weeks.

This Kanda brand from Japan seems pretty highly recommended.
