麥當勞 台北南京二餐廳

Located at the exit of Nanjing Sanmin MRT Station, McDonald's is a familiar presence for most people.

“Regular Crispy Chicken”
This item is known for its crispy skin and juicy meat. However, during this tasting, while the fried chicken maintained a certain crispiness, the chicken itself was rather dry and lacked juiciness. By the middle of the piece, it even felt a bit tough. Especially in comparison to other brands, this regular crispy chicken fell slightly behind in texture performance.

“Small Fries”
Not too ideal. This might be due to the low customer flow at the time, resulting in fries that had been sitting for a while; they were a bit soft and lost the crispiness and savory flavor that freshly fried fries should have. 🍟

“Beef Burger”
A thin layer of beef paired with a slice of cheese, this burger was seasoned in a classic way—neither particularly good nor bad. If you just want to fill your stomach, it's fine to eat; but if you're expecting something fresh or interesting, this burger comes off as rather bland.

“Corn Chowder”
Although there weren’t many corn kernels and it felt a bit sparse, the broth itself was rich and smooth, with just the right balance of creaminess and saltiness. It’s a menu item that would still entice someone to order a cup in winter. The texture is mild, and the portion is just right, making it suitable to wrap up a meal with a side dish. 🌽

In summary, this dining experience at Nanjing Sanmin’s McDonald's, while not completely disappointing, leaned more towards a "mechanical routine": the standards were met, but the soul was lacking. The shortcomings of the fried chicken and fries showed that even a chain fast food brand can have discrepancies in taste and quality.
