大橋頭老牌筒仔米糕
📍A 50-year-old shop at Yan San Night Market, also recommended by Bib Gourmand in 2024.
🍽️Environment
The interior doesn't have many tables, accommodating about 20-30 people, so you might need to share a table. The cleanliness is average, meeting the standards of a Taiwanese snack shop. I visited around 2 PM this time, and there was no queue. After ordering at the counter, I picked up my meal and found a seat.
🍛Dishes
▪️Tube Rice Cake $40
You can choose between fatty or lean meat. Besides a small slice of meat, there's also a portion of braised egg placed on top of the rice cake. Although it's called tube rice cake, it falls apart quite easily when touched, having a lower stickiness. Once separated, it actually resembles regular rice cake more 😅.
You can add sauces from the table, which I feel are the soul of the tube rice cake. The sauces provided here pair well, so feel free to add more. The spicy sauce is average; you can choose to add it or not.
▪️Double Combination Soup $75
Additionally, I ordered a double combination soup with oysters and pig's blood. It’s not exactly cheap, but the oysters are pretty plump and there are quite a few of them. The pig's blood, however, doesn't have that same fullness and has a slight hollow feeling when bitten into.
Overall, it’s suitable for when you’re not too hungry and want a taste of nostalgia. It’s worth considering when there’s no queue.
