Taipei Neihu - The most authentic potato rib hot pot from Korea, plus Korean BBQ! As soon as you enter, you’ll feel like you’ve arrived in Korea; the decor is incredibly clever!
📍 Original Potato Rib Hot Pot (Medium) NT$900
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌖
There are a total of eight pieces of rib meat! Once it's served, the meat is already cooked, but the side dishes like enoki mushrooms and perilla leaves should be added once the broth starts boiling before you eat! The pot also contains potatoes, rice cakes, and greens. The broth is rich, making the ribs very flavorful. The staff recommends dipping the meat in honey mustard sauce. The ribs are cut from the pork backbone, so it’s suggested to wash your hands and grab them directly to gnaw on, then twist apart the pork spine to eat the remaining meat and sinew piece by piece, which is quite enjoyable! A medium serving is enough for two people! Additionally, the self-service bar provides free rice cakes and instant noodles to cook, as well as refillable broth.
📍 Flying Fish Roe Fried Rice (Pot Item Optional) NT$100
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
If you’re full from the hot pot, I highly recommend ordering this dish, as the individual price is more expensive. But you have to wait until you finish the rib hot pot before the staff brings out the ingredients, taking a bit of the leftover hot pot broth to fry the rice! It’s topped with plenty of seaweed and fish roe, and there’s sour cabbage mixed in with the rice, making it quite tangy—overall, it’s a very hearty fried rice. You can also choose whether or not to make it crispy.
📍 Korean Steamed Egg NT$200
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌘
This steamed egg is quite different from the ones I had in Korea; it has shredded carrots inside and a little fish roe on top. The eggs are deeply colored, and the egg flavor is stronger—this feels like a well-made version of steamed egg! I personally prefer this, but it’s a bit pricey at 200 NT. I would suggest ordering one for four people to share, and it would be just right.

▶️ Overall Evaluation
🔹 The meat portion in the rib hot pot is ample and tastes authentic! There’s so much that we couldn’t even cook more free instant noodles and rice cakes XD. Additionally, the kimchi on the side is quite flavorful (sour and salty). Overall, I really liked it; it's great for inviting friends and family to eat together, with options for two to four-person sets. Besides the small rib hot pot, there’s also BBQ and side dishes, and I think the portions are generous—most customers seemed to leave with leftovers! So be cautious when ordering!
