香香小吃

I was looking for a good restaurant in the Shilin area when I came across a place with an unusually high Google rating😅. It was introduced on social media, so I decided to check it out for lunch on the weekend!

[Atmosphere of the Restaurant]
It was a local Taiwanese restaurant located next to the MRT. Personally, I really liked the retro and unpretentious vibe! Since it had a good Google rating, I thought it might be a popular spot, but there were only about three groups inside, so we were able to enter without waiting! The ordering style was to write down the names of the dishes on a piece of paper and hand it to the staff. We paid in advance.

[Food Evaluation]
The menu had a wide variety of dishes, from typical Taiwanese cuisine to original creations! We chose grilled meat and a rice dish with a thick sauce from the main menu options.

The taste of the food was quite standard, but the abundance of ingredients was a positive aspect. The rice dish I had included mushrooms, eggs, deep-fried tofu, and water spinach (?).

The Eight-Treasure Soup had a strong herbal flavor, and it also had plenty of ingredients!

[Overall Evaluation]
I had somewhat heightened expectations because it had a Google rating of 4.9, but it was just an ordinary Taiwanese restaurant. The staff mentioned that if you add them on LINE or something, you might receive some kind of service, so perhaps the high Google rating is also tied to a promotion... However, there were many comments from customers on the wall, and since I didn't try the number one popular dish, I'd like to order other items next time and check the flavors! 😅
