Taipei Neihu - An affordable Japanese curry shop run by a couple, the fried chicken is surprisingly delicious! Hidden in the alleys of the community, food lovers are continuously flocking here during meal times.

📍 Fried Chicken Curry Rice + Soft-Boiled Egg NT$215
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
You get six pieces of fried chicken, which is tender and juicy, not too dry, and the chicken skin is very crispy and aromatic. This fried chicken is among the best I've ever had! It's really super tasty!
The curry isn't too sweet, with a rich texture from the potato mash. It comes with three pieces of carrots and two pieces of broccoli, which balance out the richness of the curry (bonus points for having vegetables).
The soft-boiled egg is cooked perfectly; it not only looks beautiful but also has a soft texture that pairs excellently with the curry rice. Unfortunately, adding a soft-boiled egg costs an extra 50 NT$, which is a bit pricey.

The accompanying miso soup is rather average, with a deep, rich color and salty flavor, containing tofu and seaweed.

▶️ Overall Evaluation
🔹 I've been here 2-3 times, ordering fried oysters, fried cod, fried shrimp, and fried chicken. My favorite is still the fried chicken, which I love dearly! The fried oysters are also highly recommended!
Next time I will smartly order the fried chicken curry rice + a soft-boiled egg (20 NT$), making it just 165+20 NT$ (calculating cost performance, hehe), because adding a soft-boiled egg (50 NT$) is relatively expensive, haha!
