Serves up traditional style Taiwanese food in a modern setting. Is it trying to be something it&#8217;s not? Well, sort of. I mean, you won&#8217;t find that 50 year old, never-once-cleaned pot still bubbling away in the corner. What you&#8217;ll get here is cleanliness (from what we saw) and homely Taiwanese food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eatingintaipei.com\/staging\/5148\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pxl_20201030_101459912.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12618\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">So, we went for a bowl of the normal rice \u6ef7\u8089\u98ef and also the mouth numbing spicy rice \u9ebb\u8fa3\u6ef7\u8089\u98ef. Both were great, but the spice just added that little something. Is it deserving of the extra money? Well, perhaps not, as I saw that the only difference was a teaspoon of some hot chilli sauce over the original bowl of \u6ef7\u8089\u98ef&#8230; <br>I guess I was expecting the \u6ef7\u8089 to be cooked in with some spice. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eatingintaipei.com\/staging\/5148\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/pxl_20201030_101313322.jpg?ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12617\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Anyway, it was tasty, nonetheless. But I probably just expected a bit of something more special and unique. The fatty pork was great and the rice was fine. But it didn&#8217;t rock my world as I had perhaps hoped it would do. I wouldn&#8217;t go out of my way to get it again, but I certainly wouldn&#8217;t deter anyone else from going, either.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m18!1m12!1m3!1d3614.388670719704!2d121.54108625057766!3d25.054812443532107!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!3m3!1m2!1s0x3442ab83a336d3df%3A0x482f94be600ccbc8!2z5bil5ZOl5ru36IKJ6aOvIEEgSGFuZHNvbWUgR3V5!5e0!3m2!1szh-TW!2stw!4v1665558496707!5m2!1szh-TW!2stw\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Naturally, as a handsome man (cough cough), I found myself craving some fatty pork with rice the other day &#8211; likely story.
