### A Shihmen Reservoir specialty: Live Seafood Street
When visiting Longtan or Daxi in Taoyuan, the scenic Shihmen Reservoir is only part of the story. **Live Seafood Street** is a must-try local dining destination. Clustered near the reservoir, this food strip is famous for same-day, freshly caught reservoir fish and dozens of distinctive restaurants serving **Taiwanese, Hakka, and creative fusion cuisine**—one of Taiwan's rare dining districts built entirely around live fish.
Whether you are planning a family gathering, a stopover meal on a road trip, or introducing international friends to authentic Taiwanese flavors, this is an ideal place to taste **genuine mountain-town cooking and local hospitality**.
