Lian Family's Slow-Cooked Pork Trottters is located in Raohe Street Night Market, nestled at the edge of the night market, closer to Songshan Elementary School and Ciyou Temple.
Today, I enjoyed pork trotter soup, garlic minced pork trotter, garlic minced white meat, blanched greens, braised pork rice, and dry noodles, totaling 450 NT dollars. I originally didn’t plan to order so much, but that’s the arrogance of adulthood! Now I've tried everything at once.
Pork Trotter Soup:
There’s a good amount of pork trotter meat, and the rich, gelatinous texture is excellent; it deserves its status as a signature dish. However, the abundance of bones in the trotters remains an unavoidable issue with dishes like this. I actually think the number of bones in this soup is much less compared to the one from Xu's Pork Trotter Noodle Soup in Datong District...
Garlic Minced Pork Trotter and Garlic Minced White Meat:
Honestly, I can’t really tell them apart. Many online reviews suggest they’re basically the same. Regardless, they taste good. The garlic and slightly salty sauce enhance the meat's flavor, making it a delight to eat large bites of meat.
Blanched Greens:
Standard blanched Chinese greens; honestly, for 50 NT dollars, it seems a bit less than expected.
Braised Pork Rice:
This braised pork rice is very oily, and I'd say it’s definitely worth a try. The steaming hot rice, each grain distinct, combined with the braised meat that's almost black, creates an aroma that really whets the appetite.
Dry Noodles:
Not tasty at all; in fact, because of these noodles, I would definitely avoid ordering any noodle dish from this place. The texture is dry and uneven in thickness, and the topping is just ordinary oil paste.
Overall, this place is at an average standard for a night market vendor. The prices aren’t too high, but there are also some items that are really bad. However, the signature dishes are still quite satisfying to taste.
I recommend it to everyone.
