純發魯肉飯

Located near Yongchun MRT Station, "Chunfa Lu Rou Fan" is an affordable Taiwanese snack shop.

This time, I ordered the signature braised pork rice accompanied by blanched vegetables, fried tofu, and braised eggs. The standout item was the fried tofu, which was well-marinated, with its slightly wrinkled skin absorbing the sauce, making the inside tender and flavorful. The blanched vegetables, which were water spinach with garlic for added aroma, were stir-fried to be crisp without being overcooked. The only noticeable drawback was that the pepper was a bit heavy-handed, overshadowing the freshness of the vegetables.

"Braised Egg"
On the dry side, with the egg yolk slightly powdery. It would be better if it were braised to be a bit more moist for a more enjoyable experience.

"Signature Braised Pork Rice"
It was decent, with a balanced ratio of fat to lean meat, but overall the flavor was a bit bland, and the aroma was lacking. It's the kind of dish that leaves you thinking, "It was okay, but nothing to reminisce about."

In summary, "Chunfa Lu Rou Fan" is a convenient, quick, and reasonably priced dining option. If you're nearby and feeling hungry while running errands or shopping, it's a local snack that can quickly satisfy your meal needs. However, if you're coming specifically for it, you might find it a bit ordinary.
