Located in Taichung, Taike BBQ Rice Porridge is a small eatery that follows a traditional Taiwanese approach, specializing in BBQ rice porridge. The menu offers a rich variety of options; besides porridge, you can also pair your meal with various side dishes.
This time, I ordered the signature BBQ rice porridge. The porridge has a finer texture, and the rice grains are cooked quite soft. It tastes relatively salty and oily. The BBQ is laid over the porridge and carries a hint of oiliness and marinated flavor; the meat is not particularly outstanding, but it complements the hot porridge well.
I also ordered shrimp rolls; the portion size is reasonable, the skin is fried to a crisp, and the filling is solid. The shrimp flavor comes through, but the seasoning is also quite safe. The shrimp rolls perform steadily as a side dish, adding a variation in texture to the porridge.
Overall, the flavor profile at Taike BBQ Rice Porridge is rather average, but its advantage lies in the wide selection of items. Whether you want porridge, fried snacks, or side dishes, it can satisfy different needs at once. It is a convenient and low-risk option for those who don't know what to eat or are looking for a place with a diverse menu, reasonable prices, and portion sizes. It is more suitable for casual dining rather than a special visit for gourmet food.
