"Zeng Ji Mochi" in Hualien is definitely one of the most famous local souvenirs. Today, this shop is conveniently located just outside Hualien Station, making it easy for travelers from other places. In fact, there are many mochi shops in Hualien; several of them have the character "Zeng" in their name, like Zeng Ji, Zeng Master, and so on, which often confuses people.

On this visit to Zeng Ji Mochi, I felt that the prices have slightly increased compared to before, but they are still within an acceptable range. Their mochi has a very soft and chewy exterior, yet it doesn't stick to your teeth, which left a good impression on me. I recommend their peanut and sesame flavors, which are more classic choices, but the aroma is very outstanding, and the powder coating is generous. Once you take a bite, your mouth is filled with the rich taste of peanut or sesame, which is very satisfying. In comparison, the special flavors, like matcha, are not bad either, but I feel they lack a particularly standout feature and lose some of the traditional mochi's "simplicity."

Overall, Zeng Ji Mochi is a very reliable choice in Hualien, especially suitable for first-time visitors.

Egg waffle made fresh with lots of options. Our go to option is the regular flavor adding cheese. The outside is crispy and the inside gooey and salty and is the perfect flavor combination. This time we tried the salted egg flavor. It's good, but I found myself longing for the cheesy option we usually get. It does take several minutes for orders to be ready so be prepared to wait a little. Great for an afternoon snack!

Snow desserts are one of my favorites with the soft texture and natural flavors. This place really hit the spot. Service was a bit on the slow side but it was worth it, they have to make them 1-2 at a time. The space was comfortable as well, and portions were generous. I prefer ice monster locations from my past memory but still very satisfied with this location.

Apologies in advance, I did not take pictures of what this place is most well known for, but still want to leave a review to recommend this place to others. We wanted just hot dessert like red bean or tofu custard, which they have and we ordered. When we saw the snow desserts that were flying around and the big pictures advertising the snow desserts on the wall we caved in and ordered one (and in my distraction I forgot to take a picture). But this place is very efficiently run and heavily visited, many tourists as well. They have a large amount of seating and it was easy for us to find given how many people were around. But yeah, the snow dessert we ordered later came before the other things that we ordered. And it was really great, definitely worth a try. The grass jelly dessert I ordered was fine, and was what I was looking for but nothing special. Just order any of their snow ice desserts though, you won't be disappointed.
