This restaurant, "Stone Town Braised Spicy Corn," is located on Bao'an Road in the Central-West District of Tainan. If you wait on-site, the wait usually starts from 15 to 30 minutes, so it's recommended to call ahead for a reservation.
The corn here is prepared using a braising and brushing sauce method, resulting in a chewy, bouncy texture that is not hard, and the sauce is really impressive. It seems the owner also notes the texture of the corn for the day, which feels quite professional. The satay flavor is incredibly unbeatable, with a rich aroma and a hint of mild spiciness that leaves a delightful satay fragrance lingering in your mouth after eating.
However, regarding phone reservations... I sincerely suggest that first-timers be cautious. When we called, the staff spoke very hurriedly and didn’t introduce the flavors. We initially thought there was only one option, but upon arriving, we discovered there were many flavors to choose from, as well as different types of sauces available. However, if you don’t ask, they won’t offer this information proactively.
If you order on-site, it usually takes 15-30 minutes to wait. In any case, if you’re a fan of grilled corn, this place is definitely worth keeping in mind, but remember to call first and clarify the flavors, or you might miss out on the best options.

<About the meal 🥣>
The details are in the picture, the prices aren’t marked, so you need to ask the owner. But personally, I think the prices are okay ٩٩(๑•̀ω•́ ๑)۶
<About the staff 👨🍳>
The owner is an old man, seems to not talk much, perhaps because it's late and he might be tired after a long day.
<About the environment 🐾>
It's a small stall located under the arcade, across from a 7-Eleven, which might have better parking. It's a bit difficult to park on this side, so I personally suggest walking or choosing your parking spot carefully (¯︶¯)

<About the meal 🥣>
This time I bought lamb skewers and chicken skewers, but I forgot to take a picture of the chicken skewers qq
The lamb skewers were a bit tough, and you could still taste some tendon, quite chewy, and paired with some drinks, it would make a nice snack to enjoy 🤣
The chicken wasn't as tough; on the contrary, it was quite tender. A bite would easily pull it off the skewer without needing much effort, and the chicken didn't stick to the bamboo skewers, which I thought was quite good.
I ordered it spicy; at first, it felt a little hot, but the spiciness builds up slowly, although it wasn't too spicy, it lasted for quite a while.
Oh right, be extra careful when eating in the night market, since they are 40 centimeters long, so watch out not to poke someone when you eat 🤣🤣

There seemed to be 2-3 staff members, grilling skewers, serving customers, and handling payments 🤣

Located inside the Qinggou Night Market, after walking a short distance, you can see a cart with a big flag that says "popular skewers" 🤣
A barbecue restaurant that many people online recommend has opened many branches in Korea. This time, we visited on a weekday afternoon when there weren't too many people, so we didn't need to wait in line. The basic option is to choose a meal for two; if that's not enough, you can add more meat. I recommend adding 9,000 won for water celery, which goes well with the meat and balances the greasiness. The meal also comes with crispy rice and soup. The aged meat is really tender, and there's a handsome guy grilling the meat for you, which is worth the price. We four spent around 2,100 won in total, which isn't too expensive.
The Yile Grilled Fish House in Pingtung Xindian is located at the corner near Victory Star Village, with an eye-catching sign that is quite attractive at first glance. That a grilled fish specialty store can open signifies they definitely know their craft, and this time trying it out truly didn’t disappoint!
The freshly grilled tilapia has tender meat, paired with the restaurant's special sauce and spices, with a buttery garlic aroma, filled with garlic and clams, making each bite increasingly mouthwatering. The potatoes are also very tender, and the vegetables beside them soak up the fish's fresh flavor, making every bite packed with essence, super perfect with rice.
The sweetfish with roe is a must-order! The popping sensation of the fish roe in your mouth is a delightful surprise that anyone who loves fish roe must not miss. There are also hot noodles and soup, suitable not only for barbecue but also to warm the stomach, creating a very complete overall pairing.
In the alley next to Zhishan MRT Station, there are several well-known restaurants nearby. The location is quite good, and the atmosphere in the shop is dim, clean, and comfortable, featuring a distinctive style, as it specializes in direct-fire charcoal grilling.
You can choose between a full or half set of omakase-style dishes, along with pairings of tea and alcohol. Personally, I found the meals to be quite good, but nothing outstanding. Interestingly, I preferred the aged chicken thigh that I ordered additionally. The service was attentive, but considering the prices, I feel like it’s worth experiencing once but not necessarily returning.
I happened to have the opportunity to chat with the chef and sensed his dedication and the challenges of running the business. Since it’s direct-fire charcoal grilling, they’ve invested significantly in smoke extraction and odor removal. Due to various regulations, they also have to close the restaurant for three days, which is quite challenging but commendable.
Hello, I am an emo child who is struggling to hold onto my emotions. The text is about barbecue information, and the main content is in the image. Thank you.

Barbecue is considered one of the most primitive cooking methods of humanity.
It involves heating and drying the air with fuel and placing food in a position closer to the heat source to cook it with hot dry air.
Generally, barbecue refers to cooking food over a fire until it is edible. In modern society, due to the variety of ways to use fire, the methods of barbecue have also gradually diversified, leading to the development of various barbecue grills, barbecue racks, and barbecue sauces.
Furthermore, barbecue itself has also become a way for many people to gather for leisure and entertainment or to conduct business in modern times.
# Open During the New Year
The hours are still from 4 PM to 2:45 AM.
Every time I return to Taoyuan, my late-night snack choice is almost always "Happy Grill." To be honest, even though I live in Tainan, I have never had skewers that are better than this place. It might be a matter of regional taste differences, but I feel like the sauces at Happy Grill are particularly to my liking—salty and fragrant with a hint of sweetness, not overly salty but very flavorful.
If it's your first time there, to showcase the charm of their sauces, I recommend ordering the tofu and sweet potato cakes; these two items are great at absorbing the sauce, and the texture is also very good. Eating them gives a full sensation of sauce flavor. As for the meats, they perform quite well too; they are grilled nicely, and the key is that the sauces are well-prepared. Basically, anything you brush with their sauce becomes delicious.
However, this time I finally encountered a disappointing item: their grilled corn. Priced at 70 NT dollars, I won't even mention the price first; the problem is that it seems almost ungrilled! It tastes like boiled corn drizzled with sauce, lacking the charred aroma, the sauce isn't well absorbed, and the corn is a bit hard—overall, the texture just doesn't work. Of course, the sauce itself is still tasty, but the corn was poorly handled, and no matter how much sauce you apply, it just can't be salvaged.
Originally, it was a five-star rated restaurant, but because of this piece of corn, I’ll give it four stars this time. Everything else is still delicious, but if you go there, just skip the corn.
Located in Hualien's Dongdaemun Night Market, "Laicheng BBQ" is a snack stall that specializes in various grilled skewers. It’s easy to find, and the dining area is relatively spacious. The owner is quite friendly and knows how to greet customers; if you ask her anything, she responds warmly without showing impatience.
This time, I ordered a few classic skewers such as chicken hearts, seven-layer fragrance (a type of herb), beef skewers, and chicken skewers. To be honest, my impression after eating was a bit vague, which indicates that these skewers didn’t leave much of a lasting memory. The flavors were rather ordinary. The chicken hearts and seven-layer herb seasoning were at a standard level, but there weren't really any standout features worth mentioning.
What I would recommend more is their salted pork. This dish left a stronger impression on me; it was grilled just right, full of salty and savory flavor, and very satisfying. Those who enjoy stronger flavors will probably love it. Additionally, their sweet and spicy fish cake was unexpectedly good, with a slightly crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior, making it a great snack to pair with beer.
In terms of pricing, it’s quite reasonable—not too expensive but not cheap either, fitting within the normal range for night market barbecues. Overall, it’s not amazing, but also not disappointing; it’s just a small place where you can sit down, eat well, and enjoy your meal.
