The biggest problem with Zhanji is that it is too difficult to order! There will always be a long queue every time you pass by the door. The advantage of living near Zhanji is that you can almost eat and grab food anytime you want! Go to the queue at 3 or 4 pm, then have a massage next to you and then come out to eat just in time, no need to rush to make a reservation😎

What was arranged this time was a mysterious small box for two people. In the past, many people came to eat, and they had no idea that there was such a mysterious box in such a corner. After the food is delivered, the door is closed and it becomes a small world of its own, which is very chill.

What Zhan Ji recommends most is definitely his duck blood. It is cooked very delicious and is my favorite spicy duck blood! If you want to eat but can't get a reservation, you can use the method I mentioned~

Taipei's famous spicy hot pot, it's hard to get a seat if you don't have a reservation during dinner time on weekdays. So I tried my luck at 3pm on a Monday off, and I was lucky enough to get in within half an hour after waiting for a table!

I really like the decoration of Zhan Ji Dunnan store. It has a very old Taiwan feel. The indoor lighting is a bit red, so the food photos look a bit red and have a more retro feel.

Today I ordered Yuanyang Hotpot, $380
The small pot is suitable for 1-3 people. The spicy pot is slightly spicy. In addition to vegetables and fried dough sticks, which are more likely to absorb spicy oil, other ingredients such as meat slices, flower branch shrimp paste, tribute balls and other ingredients are actually delicious. It doesn't taste too spicy, but it does feel a bit salty as you eat it.
It is highly recommended that the ingredients of the spicy hot pot can be dipped in the sauce recommended by the store, which is white vinegar: sesame oil 3:1, plus some chopped green onion, it is really super relieving!
The bottom of the spicy hot pot already contains 6 pieces each of duck blood and tofu. I think the tofu is delicious and quite tasty, but I don’t like duck blood so much. I think it’s a bit salty, so I only ate 1 piece and left it alone.

Taiwanese Matsusaka pig $390
Although the asking price is almost 400 yuan per serving, the portion is quite large and the meat quality is very good. However, I feel that Matsusaka pig is not so suitable for hot pot. As expected, plum blossom pig is the most suitable for hot pot.

Taiwan’s Specially Selected Plum Blossom Pig $99 (discounted price as membership gift)
If you scan the QR code on the back of the menu and become a new member, you can exchange it for a portion of Plum Blossom Pork at a discounted price of 99 yuan. The portion is quite large and the meat is not too thin. It is recommended to exchange it!

Huazhi shrimp paste $230
It was quite amazing when it was served. In addition to the paste itself, it was also sprinkled with shrimp eggs (?). After it was cooked in the pot, the shrimp eggs would stick to the shrimp paste, and it tasted poppy. Very solid but not too hard, this one is highly recommended!

Cabbage $110, Enoki mushrooms $110
They are also some ingredients that must appear in hot pot. It is recommended that you cook the cabbage for a longer time or eat it with sauce. I wanted to eat it crispier, but it tasted a bit raw. The enoki mushrooms are OK, but at 110 yuan, they are a bit expensive. , after all, a lot of Quanlian is only 20 yuan, right?

Fried dough sticks $80, science noodles $30
Youtiao and science noodles are the must-have ingredients when ordering spicy hot pot! However, it is recommended not to soak in the spicy pot for too long. I soaked it for too long and it turned out to be super salty~ Also, I think science noodles cost 30 yuan per serving~~

Fish dumplings $100, half portion of meatballs $55
These two taste pretty good, you can order them or not. I might want to try something else next time.

Some ingredients can be ordered in half portions. Even if there are only a few people dining, you can still be greedy and order many different items. This is recommended ~

After the meal, there is also a small ice cream ball that comes with it. Today it is brown rice flavor, which is super delicious. It is very happy to end with this!

Overall, although the price is on the upper-middle level, it is a very unique restaurant with good food. There are small private rooms available for reservation, which is very suitable for dining with friends. I will visit again!

There can't be a small private room for two people>///< I've been here three or four times and didn't know Zhan Ji had this mysterious little space. Hahahaha, it isolates the noise from the outside world, and there is music playing inside, so it is very comfortable.

Sharing the itinerary of eating Zhan Ji on the same day without having to wait too long ~ On weekends, first call the Shuxin Foot Massage next door or make an appointment at Xiangyuan for a massage that lasts about an hour in the afternoon. The time is about 2 to 3:30. Before going for the massage, go to Zhanji to register and wait for a table. Then go for the massage. After you check in, you can have hot pot to eat ~ Lunch and dinner are combined🤣

Zhanji's spiciness has a cooling effect, the duck blood braised is very tasty, and the ingredients are all fresh. What’s amazing is that it doesn’t taste particularly amazing, but every time I go there I feel very comfortable and want to eat again. Maybe it’s because the service is efficient and the dining environment is comfortable.

Must order the Winged Beef! If you like beef, this is the right place to order. If there are two people, you can choose half portion of the meal. This way, you can order more and you won’t be unable to finish everything.
