Review of Yasutao: Didn't see the restroom for takeout

Lin Jianfa's grass jelly ice is a memory of old Wanhua residents, specializing in grass jelly-related desserts. The menu is simple, featuring grass jelly ice, grass jelly tea, and grass jelly pudding, with hot grass jelly available in winter. The shop has been in operation for over fifty years and has even opened a branch. The shop's name comes from the first generation grandpa, Lin Jianfa, and its unique secret recipe for grass jelly has been passed down to this day.

Hot grass jelly is a winter specialty that's smooth and natural, filled with ingredients, paired with crunchy peanuts, QQ cereal, and longan, adding a multi-layered taste experience with a surprisingly fresh grass jelly flavor. The grass jelly is juicy and refreshing, and when combined with syrup, it becomes rich in aroma. Adding milk balls enhances the milky fragrance, but it is slightly sweeter, so those who are sensitive to sweetness should note this. The pearls are sweet, and when paired with the strip-shaped grass jelly, it enhances the texture.

The dining area is clean and tidy, and during non-peak hours, there is a steady flow of people, but service is quick, and the wait time is short. Dine-in is served in bowls, while takeout comes in cups; customers need to bring their own bags or purchase them separately. The price for hot grass jelly is 60 NT dollars, while the grass jelly ice with milk balls and pearls costs 40 NT dollars. This traditional dessert shop is worth returning to for its refreshing treats, highly recommended for tasting.
