美珠小吃店

【Foodholic Naiko@Taipei】

One of my hobbies is to discover the treasured shops that “don’t tell people by their appearance”. The storefront of Meizhu Snack Shop looks extremely inconspicuous. If you don’t pay attention, you won’t even notice when you walk by. The owner is a mother who made it. The meals also taste like mom’s

It is located near Beimen Station, about a 3-minute walk from Exit 3. Although it is on a section of Yanping North Road, I personally feel that this store is inconspicuous enough to be on the level of "my alley"

In addition to selling fried rice, fried noodles, udon noodles, and various soups, this place actually also sells Hakka stir-fry, twice-cooked pork, pan-fried milkfish, shredded ginger intestines, oyster eggs and other Taiwanese home-cooked dishes. Unfortunately, I came alone today and couldn't eat them. After eating so many things, I really want to try them!

Fried rice with shredded pork $80
The aroma of fried rice hits your nostrils as soon as it is served. Although it looks ordinary, the aroma of soy sauce is overwhelming. In addition, onions are added to stir-fry together, which enhances the taste. The unfortunate part is that the rice is relatively soggy and a little oily.

Green vegetable and tofu soup$40
This bowl of soup is so ridiculous! When it was served, I blurted out "It's too big..." (I couldn't finish the meal and took it home...)
The portion of tofu should be enough for a whole piece, and even though there’s a lot of cabbage, there’s even shredded pork and dried shrimps inside. It’s only $40, isn’t it reasonable?
The taste of the soup is light. I eat the original taste of the ingredients in it, and the vegetables and protein are supplemented. I feel super satisfied ~

Overall, the price is very affordable. It’s nice to have fried rice for less than $100 in Taipei. The food tastes like the kind of food my mother would cook when I get home from overtime. It’s simple but delicious. I recommend trying it if you live nearby. Try mom’s cooking~
