食輝味蕾

📍Taipei Ximen Station Zhongshan Hall
A popular choice for office workers nearby, it often gets crowded during lunch hours. The dishes are more homestyle, and they occasionally introduce new items, but sometimes they miss the mark. It's recommended to start with the signature pork ribs and chicken leg.

Dish 🥘

• Sauce Grilled Char Siu Rice / NT$165:
  The main dish, sauce-grilled char siu, has a rather tough texture and isn't easy to chew. The cut used is quite lean, lacking the fatty aroma typical of char siu, which is disappointing. The side dishes are relatively abundant, with different offerings each time, indicating care in cooking. They have a slight feel of Japanese set meal sides, but the portions are not generous, so vegetable lovers might find it insufficient.

Although I wasn't very satisfied with the new item this time, the other dishes I've had before were decent, so I’m giving it 3 stars.
