Come to Miao Shengdong Night Market for water chestnut cakes.
According to the introduction on the Internet, there used to be 11 pills in a pack, but now there are 10 pills in a pack.

You must draw a number plate first, and it doesn’t matter if you come back after a while and continue to wait. There were a lot of people that day, so I stood next to the stall and waited for 30 minutes.

Water chestnut cake is...the outer coating is wrapped with water chestnut meat.
It's a bit like a crispy hot dog wrapped in batter, with the hot dog replaced by water chestnuts.
The coating is sweet, and the water chestnut is half of the small water chestnut meat.

In terms of items, it is quite special (after all, you may not be able to buy it elsewhere), but in terms of taste, I personally don’t think it is particularly delicious. It is just average. If you come to Miao Dong occasionally, you can try it for $50 and fill your teeth. .

Each water chestnut is round, and the sharp parts are not the two corners of the water chestnut, but the clerk's hand speed... Throwing a water chestnut into a high-temperature oil pan shows the traces of the flour slurry solidifying instantly.
A bag of 10 pieces, so $50 (I think I can confirm the quantity a little bit. I seem to have noticed that some may only contain 9 pills, because the clerk quickly threw them into the bag)
Entering from the left side of Fengyuan Tzu Chi Palace, you can see it immediately, especially the crowded area.
Two clerks roll the flour into the pot, one clerk picks up the fried ones, and one is responsible for bagging and checking out. The division of labor is clear and the speed is very fast. Occasionally, the clerk goes to use the toilet, and other people will fill in to help take over. The pastry making didn’t stop at all.
You take the initiative to get your number plate. The shop assistants are all busy making water chestnut cakes and really don't have time to pay attention to you.
I only called number 100 when I got it... However, some people queue for too long and don’t want to wait, so the boss will call 2-4 numbers at a time. If the number is called, you can go to the boss to order. If the number exceeds 10, there will be a re-draw. However, I still waited in line for almost 30 minutes before my turn came.
There are people who really know how to circle around the booth. If someone is blocking you and you can't get the number plate, just shout and borrow it, and someone will even give it to you. (I am blocked from outside)
Take a photo of your food with the Fooca camera, and write a genuine dining review to earn extra income. Every meal comes with a reward!
