Reviews
Orthodontic Reviewer: No restroom, there's one next door or a public toilet.
That day, after eating the small melon that Xiao Wang cooked, I saw the braised pork rice at the next door and decided to compare the two. There were also quite a few people, but not as many as next door. I ordered a few dishes: braised pork rice (large) for 55 NT dollars, oyster soup for 80 NT dollars, pork rib soup for 100 NT dollars, and braised fish belly for 130 NT dollars.
The braised pork rice has a southern flavor, slightly sweet, with more fatty meat, rich in gelatin, and melts in your mouth, which is the texture I like. The pork rib soup has large and tender pieces of meat, and the radish is cooked just right, with a refreshing and slightly sweet broth; the oyster soup is enhanced with shredded ginger, and the oysters are quite fresh, with a sweet and non-greasy broth. The performance of the braised fish belly is average; although it doesn't have a fishy taste, the flavor is somewhat ordinary, considered to be of standard quality.
In terms of the braised pork rice, I think Ah Yi is slightly better than the one next door, but overall, the soups each have their merits. However, the lack of a restroom in the store is a bit inconvenient for me, mainly because of my braces, I need to clean my mouth, which makes dining a bit inconvenient. I suggest friends with similar needs to prepare in advance.
❤️ Arriving at Huaxi Street Night Market, you definitely have to try the oyster lu rou rice from A Yi. Just looking at the photos will irresistibly draw you in…

🚗 This is Wanhua Mengjia Night Market, and you can park at the Longshan Temple underground parking lot. There are plenty of spaces, but you might have to wait a bit for a spot. There’s also parking around the outside of the night market for scooters, and I saw some people riding directly into the market. It's also walkable from Longshan Temple MRT station.
💬 As someone who enjoys unusual foods, I was instantly attracted when I saw this photo outside. This oyster lu rou rice has even won awards at the lu rou rice festival. This is a thirty-year-old old shop; although there are quite a few seats inside, I still had to wait a bit when I went. The service was super quick and very efficient, and the overall service was very friendly. (If you don't like oysters, you can also order the regular lu rou rice!)
