Foodholic Niko @ Taipei
"Dong Shi Fresh Oysters" is located in the Yen San Night Market, about a 4-minute walk from the Daqiaotou Station. The main color of the sign and the interior decoration is light blue, making it quite noticeable in the night market.
We originally planned to eat the "Shi Family Fresh Meat Dumplings," recommended by Bib Gourmand, but seeing the long queue at the entrance was a bit intimidating. So we decided to randomly find a nearby restaurant to eat, and since "Dong Shi Fresh Oysters" seemed to be doing good business, we decided to try it.
When the restaurant is full, you need to register with the staff for a waiting list. There were three groups ahead of us, but the wait was pretty quick, about five minutes. Once seated and after ordering, the food came out fast, and we paid after eating. There are many mobile payment options, which is quite convenient.
Crispy Oyster Omelette $75
The outer skin and eggs are fried to a crispy texture, which is the kind of oyster omelette I love. There are plenty of oysters, and there's no fishy taste. The sauce is a bit orange, salty-sweet, and quite nice overall. It's delicious, though slightly pricey.
Oyster and Shrimp Fried Rice $100 (Large +$10)
We ordered it spicy, and while we saw some chili, it wasn't spicy at all; there were plenty of oysters and shrimp, especially the shrimp. However, I wish there were a bit more oysters. The flavor wasn't bad, but the fried rice was too moist for my liking. I prefer fried rice that is fluffy and distinct, so it didn't score high with me.
Pork Soup $80
It contained large chunks of pork, which were solid and not dry. The fatty parts were soft and chewy without being tough. The meat was quite tasty; the soup had a lot of ginger and what seemed like rice wine, and it tasted just as you would imagine.
