築間幸福鍋物 中壢大同店
This time I went to the Zhu Jian Zhongli Datong directly-operated store for a meal. What’s special about this place is that it offers two dining options: hot pot and BBQ. I chose the hot pot this time~
💫 Dishes
Cantonese Pepper Pork Bone Hot Pot: The pepper flavor is very strong, and there are two options: with ingredients and without. I ordered the one without additional ingredients, but the flavor is quite enough; you can smell the pepper from afar, and it has a spicy kick that goes well with rice.
Bone Marrow Hot Pot: There is no broth, and the flavor is quite similar to clear braised beef soup. If you like clear braised beef noodles, you can opt for this pot~
Matsusaka Pork (small): The texture is quite crunchy and unique. The meat is thick and has no porky smell. There are small and large portions available, and it's suggested that women should order the small portion as it's more than enough!
Wagyu Beef (small): There are also small and large portions, but the meat slices are quite big! There are about 5-6 slices, and since they're larger, they can’t fit in the mouth at once 😂. There isn’t much marbling, and the texture is just like regular meat slices without any distinctive features.
💫 Environment
The restaurant is located in downtown Zhongli, on the second floor. After entering through a small door, you will be greeted by staff on the second floor. The space isn’t large, and if two people are trying to pass each other in the corridor, a slight turn is needed. The dining time is 100 minutes. Also, since it's located downtown, it’s recommended to leave early to find a parking space so you don’t miss your reservation time.
💫 Prices
The two set meals I ordered this time both cost NT$520. The soup base is an additional charge, and there will be a 10% service charge added to the bill. The price range is on the higher side, making it a good place for occasional dates!
