AI Spot Summary
Ginger duck is cooked using real charcoal, resulting in an excellent texture. It is recommended to pair it with noodles and duck meatballs, and ingredients such as dumplings and garland chrysanthemum also go well. Overall, the flavor is satisfying, and the price is reasonable.
The indoor air circulation is poor, the chairs are not very comfortable, but the turnover rate is high. The queuing method on-site makes the dining atmosphere a bit tense.

First, let's mention the most important and regrettable thing: you can't make a reservation! You have to come and queue in person.
I originally planned to meet friends at 6:30, but fearing there might not be a seat, I arrived at 6:00. At that time, there were still plenty of empty seats, but by 6:30, it was completely full, which was really surprising.
This restaurant is part of a chain, so the flavor isn't much different from other locations. They use real charcoal to cook their ginger duck, but the downside is that the air circulation indoors is really not very good.
I personally think the must-order items are definitely their noodles and duck meatballs, especially the noodles, which are really great when paired with a bit of broth.
The other dumplings and side dishes are also good; I highly recommend the chrysanthemum greens as they are truly the best vegetable pairing for ginger duck.
Another small downside in the restaurant is that the seats are not very comfortable. After eating, my backside really hurts, but I guess that's why the table turnover rate is so high!
The total for this meal was around 500 NT dollars for one person, and there was so much food that it felt a bit wasteful to leave some behind. Overall, I think the prices are quite reasonable, and there are little alleys nearby where you can park your motorbike easily.
If you're going with someone who drinks, remember not to drive afterward!
