台中市 • Coffee shop

over 2 years ago

Lunch1 pplNT$210

It's a bit like a civilian version of Jike, a very old-fashioned coffee shop (I heard it's over 30 years old) and a traditional bubble tea shop.
I don’t know if it was because it was election day and everyone was out, so I was a little surprised that the house was full of guests.

The meals range from pot noodles and pasta to small hot pots and simple meals. Many people order small hot pots and simple meals. The simple meals are a main meal + 3 dishes + rice and soup with drinks.

I ordered a pesto clam pasta, fried tofu and Tieguanyin milk tea
The pasta with clams in pesto sauce obviously tastes like the seasoning packets commonly used in cafes. It is a bit salty and not very delicious.
The fried tofu surprised me. I thought it was fried with firm tofu, but the inside was surprisingly soft and tender! But the sauce is a bit too salty!
The Tieguanyin milk tea was okay. I ordered a small cup. If it were a large cup, it should be the size of a beer glass.

Overall, the price is affordable and there is basically no time limit. Many elderly people come here to chat, so it is very loud and noisy. I occasionally passed by and it was not that noisy. Maybe it was just because there were many guests that day, so people were talking too much. .
I will probably come back at a time with less people next time😅

Pasta with clams in pesto sauce $120 Fried tofu $50 Tieguanyin milk tea $40

Pasta with pesto sauce, slightly salty, about 9-10 clams I didn't feel particularly full after eating, the portion size was average.

The dough and sauce look like ready-made, and the food is delivered very quickly.

Fried tofu, 9 pieces The sauce is soy sauce and bean paste, both of which are quite salty.

It's delicious with the sauce, but it's really salty after eating it for a long time.

What surprised me the most was how soft and tender the tofu filling was. It seems hard on the outside when fried, but the outside is crispy and the inside is very soft and tender.
