Taiwan has a wide variety of exotic cuisines, and for those who don’t have the time to travel abroad or for other reasons cannot taste authentic foreign flavors, exotic food is a great choice to satisfy cravings. But have you ever thought about fusion cuisine? In Kaohsiung, there’s a restaurant whose owner is a genuine Korean, who innovatively merges Korean and Italian dishes, making the usually common offerings much more unique…🤔
✅ Garlic Butter Salty Sauce Fried Chicken: The fried chicken is filled with salty flavors, with the chicken first fried and then coated in sauce. The outer skin doesn't become as soft as expected, but rather retains its crispiness, making it sweet and crunchy with each bite. Additionally, there are fried potato slices below, which have a great texture and remain crispy and delicious even when cold.
✅ Hamburger Steak Rice (318 NTD): The hamburger patty is made from beef and cheese, and its eye-catching appearance is also a popular Instagram food. Paired with red wine sauce, sesame leaves, cherry tomatoes, and a runny egg, it offers a rich depth of flavor. The sauce is mild and slightly sour, pairing cleverly with the sesame leaves. Cutting into the juicy hamburger reveals a rich gooey cheese inside, allowing each bite to deliver a perfect blend of flavors and textures. This dish is a favorite for many and is highly recommended.
✅ Korean Spicy Sauce Squid and Scallop Pasta: This dish stir-fries squid, scallops, zucchini, tomatoes, and onions with Korean spicy sauce, perfectly blending the spiciness of Korean spices with the sweet freshness of seafood. The noodle retains some texture, enhancing the overall taste and complexity.
✅ Peach Iced Tea: Full of the refreshing scent of peaches, not overly sweet, and very smooth to drink.
✅ Grapefruit Apple Sparkling Water: Made with grapefruit apple sauce mixed with sparkling water, the bubbles dance on the tongue, bringing a refreshing sensation.
✅ Korean Cheese Steamed Egg: A must-try signature item in the restaurant. The first bite offers a thick, creamy egg flavor, complemented by rich cheese that provides a delightful dual aroma and texture. Topped with a sprinkle of fish roe, it adds more vibrancy to the color.
Both the Korean and Italian dishes in this restaurant are delicious, reflecting the owner’s commitment and attention to flavor. The most recommended dish is the “Hamburger Steak Rice,” which has a very rich taste profile, enhanced by the use of mixed vinegar for a refreshing touch. The dining environment is also excellent, with enough space between tables to ensure a comfortable experience. Additionally, this restaurant does not charge a service fee! Therefore, you need to serve your own water and get your utensils.
