Passing by the area, I happened to go in with a friend to have hot stir-fry, and the business seemed quite good.

Let me share some impressions of the dishes one by one.

The salmon fried rice was fragrant, with distinct grains of rice that weren't too oily; it was quite delicious.

The golden sand tofu was also fried to perfection, and the side garlic and scallions greatly enhanced the flavor. The tofu inside was very elastic, and the texture was quite special, making it highly recommended.

The Thai-style cold century egg dish consists of century eggs topped with a lot of onions and drizzled with Thai sauce. Personally, I think it’s not worth ordering; it doesn’t have anything special about it, and the price isn’t cheap.

The shrimp rolls had a small portion and weren’t anything special. I do not recommend them.

The fried leaf fish is highly recommended; it's much better than the fried leaf fish typically found at salt and crispy chicken stalls. It's not greasy and very fresh!

The spicy twice-cooked pork is not recommended at all. This dish only had a strong soy sauce flavor with no other taste, and it was overly salty, making it quite a poor dish.

The shrimp vermicelli pot is quite recommended; the shrimp were very fresh, and the vermicelli absorbed the flavors well. The sweetness of the shrimp infused into the vermicelli, and the portion was decent. Overall, it's a good dish.

The fried dragon balls had a relatively good quantity, but they were very small—I've seen the smallest fried dragon balls ever, and the flavor was average.

Overall, the portion sizes of the dishes offered by the restaurant were small, so it wasn’t very satisfying, and the value for money was low. There was quite a variation in the quality of the dishes; some were tasty and fresh, but others not only had insufficient portions but also lacked flavor and proper seasoning.

Most importantly, the speed of service was far too slow. I was seated at 8 PM, and the last dish only arrived around 10 PM. It felt like I was dining at a French restaurant with the two-hour meal duration. There is significant room for improvement here.

🍢 Kaohsiung Sanmin ▫️ Around the Houyi Business District
🍢 A popular stir-fried and charcoal-grilled restaurant that has been thriving for over twenty years

This charcoal-grilled stir-fry restaurant located on Nanjing Street
Is always packed inside and out during weekends
It is said to have started as a roadside stall in 1997
And has developed into a two-story restaurant👏🏻

My first visit was a family gathering with a large group
Due to the slow serving speed and lackluster dishes
My impression of the place wasn’t very positive
But one day, I decided to give it another chance
And I could clearly feel the improvement🎉
(Of course, it’s also possible that the chef just had an off day the first time🤔)
From then on, my family became regulars, visiting every month❤️

Besides the fragrant aroma of charcoal-grilled dishes wafting from outside the restaurant
Every bite served at the table carries the unique flavor of charcoal🔥
A-Hong's stir-fried dishes are equally outstanding
Each dish shows a careful selection of ingredients
Especially the seafood, which allows one to truly savor fresh flavors🦐

During this visit, the dining area of the restaurant
Was originally their "Next Door" hot pot restaurant🍲
After it closed down, they retained the hot pot decor
Allowing customers to enjoy meals in a more comfortable space🥘

If you place a high emphasis on overall value for money 𝗖𝗣
A-Hong's prices may not be very friendly
But if you care about ingredient selection and delicious cooking
I think it’s worth giving it a chance to shine
After all, the stir-fried and charcoal-grilled dishes here are definitely worth trying
It's a great spot for gathering with a few friends and enjoying drinks✨
