The location is near the entrance of Jiufen Old Street. The environment is quite small, but there are a lot of people. The seating for dining in is very cramped, and as soon as you sit down, someone asks you what you want to eat. Personally, I like this kind of pressure.

They specialize in fish ball-related dishes, and the menu is very simple with only six items:

🔹 Set Meal (Fish Ball Soup + Dry Vermicelli + Tofu Wrap) $105

The soup is not oily and takes a simple, refreshing route; it only has three fish balls, which have a crunchy and bouncy texture, not the powdery kind.
The dry vermicelli is surprisingly my favorite part, the mixed sauce is very fragrant but not overly salty, though it has a bit of spice. The vermicelli is not mushy, with a nice chewy texture; it goes down quite smoothly.
The tofu wrap has a bit of elasticity in its skin, filled with plenty of vermicelli and minced meat (or at least I think that’s what it is), and it's quite substantial. The sauce has soaked in nicely, making it pretty tasty. It has a hint of sweet and spicy seasoning, which is a little spicy, so those who are sensitive to spice should be cautious.
