The Huang Mao Ah Tou Dongshan Duck Head specialty shop in Jiayi's Cultural Road Night Market is one of the well-known late-night food stalls, always bustling with waiting customers. The number ticket has a QR code printed on it, allowing customers to instantly scan and check the current call status—very convenient design.
The seasoning is a dry, thick type of sauce that clings to the surface of the ingredients after reduction, imparting a caramel-like sweetness. This method gives a slightly sticky texture to the surface of the braised dishes, paired with a fried treatment that makes the exterior a bit oily, yet rich in aroma. For those who prefer strong flavors and enjoy the interplay of sweet and savory, this will be a highlight. However, if someone is not fond of a sweeter taste, they might find the flavor a bit overwhelming.
The "Rice Blood Cake" has a sticky sweetness from the braising sauce on the outside, while the inside retains a soft, glutinous texture. The "Tofu Bag" has a skin that absorbs the sauce, offering an interplay of salty and sweet flavors, but the oiliness is quite pronounced. The "Sweet Potato Balls" have a bouncy texture with a strong sauce flavor, making it a dish that is enjoyable to eat.
Although the braised dishes are not particularly astonishing, they are relatively consistent for a night market stall. Each item costs around 20 to 30 NT dollars, making it reasonably priced for night market snacks; the portions are moderate, making them suitable for snacking while strolling around.
