Hello everyone, I am little frog🐸
There are often many so-called "affordable versions of Din Tai Fung" on the Internet...
Wucaoche is one of them⋯so come and give it a try😆

Wucaoche Chinese Noodle Restaurant has stores in Guting and Yonghe. Regardless of weekdays or holidays, every time I pass by, I see a lot of people waiting for a table. I came on a holiday night and waited for about half an hour to be seated.
The environment is very bright, the sauce table is clean, and the transparent open kitchen is separated by glass so you can clearly see the status of the kitchen.

⭐️Pork Ribs and Egg Fried Rice $210
The portion of the pork ribs and egg fried rice is quite large, and it looks very good. The egg fried rice is topped with fried pork ribs. The meat is slightly thick, moderately salty and has a strong peppery flavor. The fried rice has more egg flavor than green onions and is not overly oily. But the overall taste lacks the wok flavor...

⭐️Fried Shrimp and Red Oil Hands $175
There are 8 shrimps fried in red oil in one portion, and the whole shrimp is wrapped in the hand. It tastes like shrimps, and the red oil sauce is also very flavorful. The red oil is not spicy at all, it is probably the spicy kind of Titian. feel.

⭐️Braised beef noodles $240
The thin noodles have a springy texture, and the half-tendon and half-meat beef stew is soft and tender. There are about 5 big chunks in a bowl. The braised soup is relatively refreshing... but when it is served, the temperature feels... warm... a bit cold. If it falls, generally speaking... won’t the beef noodles smoke just after they are cooked and served? ? 🤔

‼ ️Conclusion:
Overall, I personally feel that there is a difference in taste between this restaurant and Din Tai Fung. The price is actually mid-to-high-priced. There is no such thing as "affordable Din Tai Fung"... The food is not bad, but there is nothing particularly memorable about it. , eat it as a whole... the CP value is slightly lower, I won't queue up to eat it again.

牙套人評論:有一間廁所 這次到五草車中華食館南昌店用餐,是因為永和店剛好公休,才特地跑來試試看。雖然體驗不錯,但距離較遠,下次應該還是會選擇就近的永和店。 這次我們點了以下餐點: 1. 紅油蝦仁抄手 (8入) - $175 2. 牛肉湯 - $210 3. 肉絲蛋炒飯 - $180 4. 排骨蛋炒飯 - $210 5. 燒椒皮蛋 (辣) - $100 6. 芋泥球 (單顆 x2) - $80 7. 炒菠菜 - $100 8. 什錦小菜 - $75 9. 涼拌雲耳 - $80 總計:$1210 牛肉湯的肉軟嫩,湯頭清爽;炒飯的味道穩定,跟以前差不多;紅油蝦仁抄手和燒椒皮蛋的滋味都很棒,芋泥球甜而不膩也頗驚喜。 另外,看到隔壁桌點了兩盤小黃瓜,看起來很清爽,下次或許可以試試。不過,如果不是因為沒開,還是會選近的永和店方便一些。

【Foodholic乃子@台北】 又是一家被稱為平價版鼎泰豐的中華餐館,菜單和鼎泰豐非常類似,今天莫名很想吃這類型的料理,所以來這家原本就放在待吃清單中的五草居 「五草車中華食館 南昌店」位於古亭站附近,距離2號出口走路約3分鐘,店招牌不是很顯眼,但是基本上不太會錯過,因為店門口排隊的人潮真的很多啊! 我們是在假日晚上快6點時抵達,沒想到前面還要再等6組客人;候位要找店員登記,如果過號要重新排 店內座位數不算多,大概只有10桌,所以用餐空間略顯擁擠 服務還算周到,一上桌店員就先送上熱茶;不過這家店只能現金付款,稍嫌不方便 排骨蛋炒飯$210、肉絲蛋炒飯$180 其實兩款炒飯吃起來味道差不多,就是鼎泰豐式那種最基本單純的蛋炒飯,香味主要是蛋、鹽、蔥帶出來的,不錯吃,但不是我最愛的那種會加洋蔥、醬油款的炒飯 肉絲炒飯加炒辣椒,但幾乎不會辣,辣椒比較像是裝飾用;可以吃一半時加入一點紅油抄手的醬汁進去,讓味道有些變化 炸排骨個人覺得中規中矩耶,普通好吃但不會意猶未盡 紅油蝦仁炒手$175 總共有8顆,選擇小辣,辣度是夠的;蝦仁非常大顆,從外表就能看出,不知道為什麼吃到後來有一股香精味,個人不太愛 空心菜$100 選擇加辣椒,但和炒飯一樣根本不會辣,空心菜炒得不怎麽樣,建議趁熱吃一吃,冷掉後就不是很想吃了 整體而言,食物表現大概65-70分,但因為價格還是比一般的小吃店貴,且需要排隊,所以再訪意願不是很高

首先,這間假日時人特別多,同時外賣單也很多,候位也只能現場候位,所以從入座到餐點上桌,可能要不少時間,如果不想等的人,建議換別間。 點了肉絲蛋炒飯,不看價錢的話,個人覺得屬上等的品質,炒飯真的蠻好食,粒粒分明,調味也是蠻適中,但價格也不便宜就是。

Lian Kee Chicken Rice
ChineseSubang Jaya
The place is a stall located inside the MeiSek Kopitiam. It operates in the evening as the morning and afternoon is for the other stalls. Drinks have to be ordered from the drinks stall via self-service. Parking is awailable but would be hard to find on busy days. I was expecting things to taste better as there were a number of patients dining in. The steam chicken and rice was just ordinary. The beansprouts lacked taste and were not crunchy. However, the redeeming qualities of the place was their wantan and pork balls. The wantan was full of flavourful stuffing and the chillie oil in the soup gave a nice kick to it. The pork balls were very good as well, with a firm springy texture. Price is pretty standard subang prices. Overall, i wont come here unless I am craving chicken rice and am unwilling to go to better places. While i am here, the porkballs and wantan is a must have.

Big Big Wantan-Mee & Rice Damansara Jaya
ChinesePetaling Jaya
Known for its wan tan mee, hence the name, decided to visit the shop. It's been a few years since i have been here and wanted to have it again. Parking is difficult to find on the road, with alot of people double parking. Might be better to park in the atria mall, though please note the parking fees isnt cheap. Had to wait a few minutes, as the lunch crowd was happening. Service was ok. To order, just write your order code on a piece of paper and pass to the staff. Food came relatively quickly but unfortunately the quality was lacking. The portion was big but the quantity of char siew was small. The char siew had the premium look but was tough and no crispy caramel parts. The caramel parts were abit sweet and sticky instead. The noodles was decent and the sauce paired well with it. However, in the past there were pork lards placed along the noodles. The wantans, though packed with filling; just tasted normal. They only had 3 pieces only. The white coffee was terrible. It was very diluted with no flavour at all. The payment option of cash was very dissapointing, especially since almost every other place has atleast a qr paying option. I can imagine this point alone will put off alot of customers. Overall, i wont really come back unless i really really want to eat wan tan mee. Its just slighly above mediocre wan tan mee but definitely not living up to its name.

時時香RICE BAR 宜蘭新月店
ChineseYilan County
This is a chain restaurant that's present in a lot of malls, and generally popular. We were quite late for our lunch (2pm) but was happy to see that this place was still open. The food was very satisfying. The dishes came out all fairly quickly except for the meatball dish. At that point we were pretty much already ready to go at that point, so the only negative side to our experience. That meatball dish was also very good though. I found all of the flavors very familiar and comforting for Chinese food. The omelette with pickled radish especially was nice, the inside was soft and the radish had just the right amount of salt. Service was nice and attentive, though expected since we were the only ones present besides one other party.
