I'm Yang, and I enjoy taking casual photos of food.
Today, I'm introducing:
🗣️ The newly opened Huang Men Chicken Rice in the Beiqu area of Taichung.
🔺 Environment
As soon as you enter, you can see that drinks and white rice are free for self-service.
There aren't many seats, and it seems you can't make reservations.
The staff is very friendly; while I was waiting outside for my friend, one of the staff members came out to say it was okay for me to go in and wait.
🔺 Food
❣️ Lao Quan Cheng Huang Men Pork 💰170
The pork slices are quite large, but I found them a bit fatty, not really my type.
The ingredients include green peppers, mushrooms, potatoes, and black fungus, and the portions are quite generous.
The potatoes are flavorful and very delicious.
The sauce is good with rice, a bit salty and slightly sweet.
However, I might have had too high expectations after seeing reviews on Google, as it didn't feel amazing.
(I know the restaurant has a promotion for reviews that earn a drink, but there were still many serious and positive reviews, which made me really look forward to it before dining. 🤣)
🤗 Summary
The prices are affordable, and you don't have to worry about not being full with unlimited drinks and rice.
It was okay for me, but I don’t have many memorable points after eating.
My friend ordered the boiled beef; I don’t eat spicy food, so I didn’t try it.
He said the medium spiciness isn’t very spicy, and the heat is more on the fragrant side.
(There are fewer motorcycle parking spots nearby, so you have to be lucky to find a spot.)
🔱 Braised chicken and rice 🔱
Suddenly, I discovered that a braised chicken and rice restaurant opened on Xingye West Road. It is quite rare in Chiayi. I came to try it today to see how it tastes.
"Braised chicken is a dish that originated in Jinan, Shandong, China and is popular throughout China. The main raw materials are chicken (usually chicken legs), green peppers and mushrooms. Add a variety of seasonings and put them into a pot (usually a casserole or stone pot). ) stewed."
☝️ Help friends who may not know much about it to learn more about it.
In addition to braised chicken, this shop also has many other dishes, such as dry pot or boiled beef/fish series, as well as the most popular pickled fish.
We ordered a braised chicken and dry pot, both of which were slightly spicy.
Even before the braised chicken comes, you can smell its fragrant smell. The chicken leg meat inside is large and tender. You can separate the bones and meat with a gentle flick of chopsticks. There are also potato pieces and fungus inside. Wait, although it is mildly spicy, it is actually not too spicy. My mother thinks it is a bit strong, but I think it is okay.
In addition, my squid dry pot was slightly spicy, but mine was a lot spicier. I was sweating after eating it.
The squid inside is very large, and there are also various vegetables. The visual and taste effects are very good.
The white rice and drinks are all self-refillable. Apart from the high price, the food is pretty good! Recommended to four stars
