The soup curry from Hokkaido, whether in summer or winter, is definitely a heartwarming and satisfying choice at Suage located in the beautiful Miramar in Dazhi!
A friend's heartfelt recommendation: "This place really has the best soup curry in Taipei."
After dining here, I truly felt the depth of the soup curry and the care in the selection of ingredients. Even the main meat dish and the side rice were so delicious that they could be eaten one bite after another. In terms of pricing, it is also quite reasonable. Currently, it is known that this is the only branch in Taipei, so I highly recommend that more people come and taste it.
✽ Soup curry ordering process:
(1) Choose your favorite main dish
(2) Choose the soup base (original/coconut shrimp +20)
(3) Choose the spiciness level (recommended 🌶️ mild)
There are also many individual toppings to choose from!

✽ Yuzu Pepper Chicken Soup Curry $390
This uses chicken breast marinated with yuzu pepper. You don’t have to worry about the chicken breast being dry and tough because their chicken breast is super tasty! It’s tender and soft, and the subtle salty aroma of the yuzu pepper is really appetizing.
I paired it with a mild original curry, which is a curry soup that lies between Japanese curry and spiced curry, allowing you to taste a rich blend of spices while also bringing a slight sweetness in the curry sauce that makes it very smooth to drink.
The accompanying vegetables are also delicious and plentiful, including zucchini, pumpkin, eggplant, baby corn, green peppers, okra, and half a boiled egg, providing a colorful variety that goes well with the soup curry.
The rice is served on a separate plate and can be refilled for free, which is fantastic! Plus, there are lemon slices on the side that you can add to your rice, and then pour the curry sauce over it to enjoy—it’s super delicious!
✽ Duck Leg Skewers $110
This is another individually ordered meat skewer. Since duck leg meat is quite rare, I wanted to try it, and the conclusion is: highly recommended.
The surface is very smooth and juicy, with a rich roasted duck leg flavor that is chewier than chicken legs but with a slight bounce in texture. I think it is a hidden gem dish.
✽ German Sausage $45
This is also an a la carte item. The German sausage is not very thick but is crispy and tasty. Personally, I think it’s optional, as their duck leg skewers and chicken are obviously much more impressive!
The curry coach's location is across from the Hualien City Office.
Today I ordered pork cutlet curry, and the pork cutlet was super crispy and the meat super tender. The curry was sweet and generous in portion, with plenty of sauce in every bite to enjoy. The rice was slightly soft and chewy, not the kind that’s perfectly separated.
The sauce for the cold tofu complemented the flavor of the tofu very well.
The shop also offers cocktails, and I look forward to ordering again next time.
The coach teaches tennis, and you can accumulate points to exchange for free lessons.
The environment inside the shop is clean, tranquil, and not oppressive.
It's not very suitable to park scooters at the entrance; you can park in the nearby alley or in the open space in front of Fubon across the street.
On the first day of my trip to Osaka and Kyoto in 2024, I arrived at Kansai Airport around 8:00 PM and was a little hungry, so I began to look for food. After wandering around the food street, I decided to try this curry place.
I actually had no expectations, thinking it would just be an overpriced, average curry rice. I was surprised to find it to be much better than expected. We saw that the portion was quite large, so we thought we could just share one plate. However, in the end, we felt it wasn't quite enough and left wanting more.
I recommend curry lovers to give it a try the next time they are at Kansai Airport!

<About the meal 🥣>
I ordered the German sausage omelet rice, with extra spicy and cheese.
From my perspective, the spice level isn’t too hot; it’s more like a mild spiciness. If you usually don’t eat spicy food, you can start with the mild spice first.
The curry itself isn’t too thick but isn’t too watery either, it has just the right consistency. I feel like you could eat a lot without getting bored. If you need more rice or sauce, you can request extra.
<About the staff 👨🍳>
There really is a bald uncle inside who is very serious about cooking, along with two waitstaff. They seem a bit cynical, but their basic service attitude is decent, so overall, I feel it's okay (?)
<About the environment 🐾>
The environment is very clean and tidy, and the surroundings are quite quiet. It’s a comfortable space for someone to spend time and relax.
There isn't much parking available outside, so you might need to look around a bit.
🍛 Kaohsiung Sanmin ▫️ Houyi Xifeng Night Market
🍛 A classic curry specialty store where you can taste potato and carrot
Living near Xifeng Night Market, of course, I come here to find food from time to time.
Although it's called a night market, it's actually just a street, and every evening it’s very lively with shops and vendors. 🔥
This curry place is a new shop that recently moved to Xifeng Street.
(Originally, it was a famous but I think average store called Jun Tui Ku Rice.)
I heard they used to operate next to Longhua Junior High School for 10 years.
After moving, the big boss passed it on to the second generation to continue running it, maintaining the same taste and care. ❤️
When I first came here to eat, I personally really liked it.
Unlike the rich onion curry sauces that have been popular in recent years, this offers the traditional flavors with potatoes 🥔 and carrots 🥕.
Paired with crispy pork cutlet and tender egg skin, it’s a classic curry omurice that’s suitable for all ages. 🤤
This time, I also tried their curry udon noodles.
The noodles are made from Sanuki udon, which is very chewy.
Coated in curry sauce, it’s very palatable.
The special pickled radish adds a sweet and sour taste that’s quite appetizing.
You can also taste the original flavor of the beef brisket.
Overall, it’s very filling and quite good. 👍🏻
Basically, this affordable curry shop is somewhere I occasionally visit.
The only downside is that there are no vegetables to order,
but I generally leave satisfied every time I eat here.
If anyone is in the area, you might want to give it a try! ✨
Lunch at Zhongshan Station, I originally wanted to eat ramen, but found the line to be too long. I noticed that the nearby soup curry place had good reviews, so we decided to give it a try. Conclusion: I do not recommend it at all.
When we entered the restaurant, there was only one table occupied, but there was only one staff member. We had to wait a long time for both ordering and getting our food. I understand the current labor shortage, but if the food isn’t good, then it just isn’t.
I ordered the braised pork soup curry with a little spice, but there was absolutely no spiciness at all… I think I am somewhat sensitive to spice, but this had none, and my dining companion also said it was completely non-spicy. No good~ Then the pork was not tender at all; it was so tough it was inedible… really do not recommend.
Overall, the prices were quite high, and I feel the quality of the food did not match that price.
🎉Food at Zhongli Railway Station Backside🎉
🎉Ultimate Thick Pork Chop Rice Bowl🎉
This food spot, located behind Zhongli Railway Station, is not only recommended by foodies but is also a must-visit for social media influencers. The restaurant's highlights are curry paired with fried foods, and the generous portions will definitely satisfy even the hungriest of boys.
The restaurant uses LV Tontoro black pork, which is of the same breed as Kagoshima black pork. It features the loin cut that is rich in muscle and fat, providing a wonderful texture, allowing us to enjoy this delicious dish without flying to Japan.
Ultimate Thick Black Pork:
The chef first cooks the pork using sous vide, which presents the meat beautifully in a light pink hue. The loin is full of meatiness without being dry, complemented by coarse breadcrumbs that add incredible crispiness! Eating it on its own allows you to taste the natural sweetness of the pork. Paired with the pork chop sauce, it has a rich flavor that goes perfectly with rice. The tamago don (egg rice bowl) has a nice balance of sweet and savory, but the portion of rice is quite large, making the sauce portion feel a bit lacking, which results in a minor loss of moisture and saltiness.
Thick Cut Aged Pork Loin Curry:
The tenderness of the pork chop is even more pronounced. The loin meat is indeed more tender and fried to perfection, bursting with juices paired with the restaurant's signature curry, which is very flavorful! The curry here is salty, unlike regular Japanese curry which is sweet, and it has a unique aroma that is very delicious.
Truffle Fried Beef Steak Curry:
When served, the aroma of truffle fills the air. The fried steak appears well done, but the texture is still tender without being tough, and it is rich in beefy flavor, with a nice chewy texture. Paired with a complimentary onsen egg, it's creamy and delightful. Each serving also includes refreshing sides of yuzu radish and kelp that lighten the meal.
To sum up:
The flavors are all quite good, and the restaurant has a semi-open layout where you can see the delicious ingredients. However, seating is limited, so it's recommended to visit on weekdays to avoid long waits.
It's really recommended to try the braised pork soup curry (or yuzu pepper chicken neck meat) at Suage!
This time I ordered the torched bacon cabbage soup curry, and the recommended medium spice level is completely not spicy. Even my companions, who don't eat spicy food, said it wasn't spicy at all. There was no torched bacon or torched flavor; it was just a somewhat tough, ordinary thick bacon!
The soup base isn't hard to drink, but it lacks some aroma! The vegetable accompaniments were a bit peculiar; common ingredients like zucchini and okra were missing, but they included peas and cucumber. 😂
Also, the lemonade in the restaurant might have too much lemon; it's really super sour regular lemonade. 😂
To be honest, it doesn't feel cheap, but Suage is more stable in terms of quality at the same price point.
🍛 A curry shop run by a Japanese comedian that won the Kanda Curry Championship!
This place is often packed at noon, but this time I arrived close to closing at 13:30, so I could walk in without waiting in line. It looks unremarkable from the outside, but once you enter, the space is very tidy and comfortable.
Here, you pay for your order first and then find a seat to wait. There are four different types of spiced curry, and besides ordering individually, you can also choose a combination of two or three, which is very friendly for those with choice anxiety. 😂
This time I ordered a combination of C's pepper beef tendon and D's spiced chicken. Although the curry itself isn't very spicy, the aroma is truly rich and full. After finishing, my breath was filled with the scent of spices. The pickled onions served on the side are crunchy and tangy, making for a refreshing accompaniment!
I've heard for a long time that Hokkaido's soup curry is super delicious, far beyond what Taiwan's Silver Rabbit can compare to. This time, I finally have the chance to try it!
There are many restaurants selling soup curry in Hokkaido, and each has its own unique flavor. Originally, I wanted to eat at Garaku, which had previously opened a branch in Taiwan. However, the line was too long, and this place has decent reviews as well. It originated near Hokkaido University and is also closer to where we were staying, so we decided to give it a try. The restaurant is on the second floor, and luckily, we only had to wait about 5 minutes to be seated with just two other groups ahead of us!
To order, you first choose a main dish from the dazzling array of options, then pick one of five soup bases (which are: basic tomato soup, popular coconut soup, Japanese-style soup, shrimp soup, and soybean milk shrimp soup). I finally opted for the special meal exclusive to the Otaru branch, which includes either a hamburger patty or grilled chicken, plus a Hokkaido sausage, with shrimp soup as the base. The rice portion was normal, coming to a total of 2,050 yen.
I have to say, soup curry is really photogenic! The colorful ingredients look mouth-watering in photos, making it perfect for those who love to take pictures of their food. But it's not just about looks; the curry itself is truly a notch above Taiwan's Silver Rabbit. It's incredible, and I can't quite explain the difference, but it's really delicious. This might have something to do with the quality of the ingredients in Hokkaido. If anyone knowledgeable can tell me the difference, please leave a comment! 🤣
(The hamburger patty is very soft, yet retains the texture and juice of the meat, delicious! The sausage is a bit more ordinary, seasoned with rich spices and having ample meat juice. It's good, but doesn't pair particularly well with the soup curry.)
I feel like I need to eat at a few more soup curry places in the next few days!
