Qiaonan Food and Coffee Introduction
The 16th ancient house is a well-preserved example of traditional Taiwanese street architecture. This type of street house features a half loft in its first floor design, along with a well for transporting goods up and down. Each floor includes a courtyard to allow natural light, and there is a waterway corridor designed to function as the kitchen. Due to the success of the community building in Qiaonan Old Street, it attracted Ye Naiwei, who previously operated a second-hand car café in the nostalgic Wushulin area of Houbi, to return to his hometown and engage in community development. He transformed the 16th ancient house into a café, filling Qiaonan Old Street with the aroma of Taiwanese organic coffee. Notably, Mr. Ye is a vinyl record enthusiast, and the walls of the ancient house are adorned with record covers he has collected from various places. Sipping a cup of coffee, one might suddenly hear the old songs played on a vintage turntable, making it easy to feel as if they have stepped into a time tunnel. The 13th Food Pavilion and the 16th Café are connected, allowing visitors to explore.
