▶Japanese-style Fried Chicken Curry Rice $310◀
It's somewhat like karaage.

▶Sukiyaki Beef with Vegetables $290◀
This dish comes with soup curry, and the flavor of the soup curry is very Japanese. It’s filled with lots of vegetables, and the beef slices are rather ordinary, plus the portion is not very large >< There’s also a soft-boiled egg on the side! And some side dishes ~

✨Minimum order of one main dish per person
✨Service fee applies

"Shin Takoh" is located inside Taipei Station, making it a convenient spot that specializes in Japanese curry and a variety of Japanese set meals. The curry here leans towards a sweeter taste with a strong Japanese flavor; adding some spiciness can further highlight the layers of the curry. Although it resembles the taste of Japanese curry cooked with blocks at home, Shin Takoh's curry is evidently richer and more robust. I tried their beef short ribs, which were tender and juicy, more to my liking compared to ordinary beef. As for the karaage (fried chicken), it is undoubtedly one of the highlights of this restaurant—crispy on the outside and soft and juicy on the inside, each bite brings out the tender chicken and aroma.

However, the dining environment here slightly affected the overall experience. The tabletop of the two-person table was unstable, shaking to the point where I began to wonder if I was seated on a train. In the end, I had to use some napkins to stabilize it. Although it's a minor detail, an unstable table can really diminish the dining experience.

In summary, the curry and set meals at Shin Takoh are indeed of good quality, especially the karaage, which is worth trying. If you're a traveler coming to Taipei Station and looking for Japanese set meals, and you don’t mind minor environmental flaws (maybe it’s just my bad luck 😆), it’s worth giving it a try.

"New Goken" specializes in rich traditional Japanese curry rice.
Breeze opened a branch on the 2nd floor of Taipei Main Station.
I was attracted by the retro-decorated facade of this restaurant.
I also happened to want to eat curry rice at the same time.
So I decided to give it a try!
The store was full at the time.
Luckily I didn't have to wait long to get a seat.
This curry sauce is based on a stock made from a large amount of vegetables and fruits.
The curry sauce is thick and spicy, with rich flavors.
Salty, sweet and slightly spicy.
The food tastes good overall
Although it is not astonishing
But it's quite delicious, nothing to fault.
Overall, it lacks a sense of surprise and the price/performance ratio is OK, but you don’t need to make a special trip there.
It would be nice to find a location at CNR Holidays.
