【Foodholic Niko @ Kaohsiung】
"The Osaka Ohsho - Zuoying Global Store" is located inside the Zuoying High-Speed Rail Station, making it a great place to eat before or after taking the train.
The staff are quite enthusiastic and friendly. You can order by scanning a QR code, and the staff will bring you hot tea. There seems to be a 10% service charge because of this, which is acceptable, though I didn’t expect a location similar to a food street to charge for service.
The Dotonbori Fried Noodles are $155 (plus a $16 service charge). They are stir-fried noodles with a taste reminiscent of okonomiyaki, topped with an egg, similar to an omelet, and drizzled with mayonnaise. I went in with no expectations, but it was surprisingly good! The egg is of the creamy type, although I personally prefer it a bit more cooked. However, it was still well-cooked and didn’t have any raw egg whites.
The noodles are quite chewy and have a nice savory flavor, along with a hint of barbecue aroma. The only downside is that they were a bit too wet. There was a lot of cabbage in the noodles, and a small amount of wood ear mushrooms, which made me quite happy since it added some greens.
Overall, if I want to grab a bite to eat at the high-speed rail station next time, I would still consider eating at this place.
It was lunch time when I took the train back to Kaohsiung. I strolled around the food court in the Xinzuoying Taiwan Railway Hall and found that Osaka King General was located there. It had a wide variety of items. It looked like it was newly opened and I quickly gave it a try.
Ordered today:
-
Wang Jiang Seafood Fried Noodles (165 yuan)
The yellow noodles are chewy and lightly seasoned, with a lot of vegetables and pork, and the seafood part is shrimp and squid. -
Five-eye fried rice (130 yuan)
The contents include onions, barbecued pork and eggs. It can only be said that the frying skills of the Japanese chefs are not inferior to those of the Chinese chefs. The grains are also clearly defined. Plus, it is Koshihikari rice, which adds a delicious aroma to the rice! -
Grilled dumplings (79 yuan)
The store’s signature dish, but as I don’t usually eat fried dumplings, I don’t think it’s particularly amazing and the seasoning is too heavy.
Overall, the price is affordable (no service charge), and the quality of the food is average, but the serving speed is slow, so it is not suitable for people who are in a hurry.
