王福芋圓
Title: Random Student - What to Eat
This time I unbox Wangfu Taro Balls in Ximen District, which has a 4.7-star rating on Google reviews.
★ Meal:
Brown sugar syrup + tofu pudding + brown sugar jelly + taro balls + tofu pudding (with a review, you get an additional topping for NT$10) - NT$75
★ Thoughts:
Surprisingly delicious! It has already climbed to the top of my tofu pudding rankings, either first or second place. This price isn't a joke at NT$75, but the ingredients are plentiful.
- The tofu pudding has a smooth texture and is full of the aroma of yellow soybeans.
- The taro balls and sweet potato balls are small, but you can taste the taro filling in little bits. Compared to the taro balls from Jiufen, you can enjoy more taro filling and the chewiness is still there.
- The brown sugar jelly has a rich brown sugar flavor and the unique taste of the jelly, reminiscent of the flavor I remember.
- The grass jelly is also good.
The only small drawback is that the crushed ice is a bit coarse, which affects the texture. For those who like sweetness, since the toppings are abundant, the syrup gets pushed to the bottom, so you need to mix it again before eating.
With this price point and the texture of the mentioned toppings, it's one of the top places for tofu pudding in Taipei.
Even though there is a review bonus for toppings, this review deserves a high score.
(The giant taro balls sell out quickly, but the small taro balls are also worth trying!)
★ Waiting Time:
3-5 minutes.
There are only two tables, so if you can sit, you must hurry!
