...onto a round grill. We watch as she nonchalantly cracks two eggs over the clear taro and smooths the mixture into a perfect circle. She then sprinkles plump oysters over the omelette and folds it all together. Served with a sweet and spicy sauce, one uhwajian, as the oyster dish is called, splits well between two people, leaving room for more of the night market's delights. And there are many. Tangyuan, gnocchi-shaped parcels of rice paste filled with meat and scallions, are especially delicious, but pause a moment before popping the piping-hot morsels into your mouth...

By the end of thirty minutes, it had appeared—delightfully—in virtually every layer...
...pair skillfully manipulated their sound, here bringing up the underlying bass track, there turning up a wispy vocal. Anthems like one based around a spoken “Underground” sample were most successful in bringing a raucous crowd response. Deep Dish punctuated an otherwise continuously driving sound every ten to 20 minutes with climactic flourishes that inevitably brought noisy approval and renewed the dancing. Trite as it may sound, diversity was a key component of Deep Dish’s music. Ranging from gruff spoken words to exotic Middle Eastern sounds, their samples were not limited...
