The menu primarily features fried rice, noodles, and side dishes, with stable and delicate flavors. Although the prices are slightly higher, they are comparable to those on Hulin Street, where the nearby Xiao Chen Beef Noodles is also about the same price.
"Double Egg Fried Rice"
The fried rice is perfectly separated, with the right amount of oil, making it neither greasy nor heavy. Each bite has a rich egg aroma, and the layers of flavor come from the precise wok hei. The portion is quite substantial, which might be too much for someone with a smaller appetite. For an additional 10 NT dollars, you can upgrade to the "full set" (with chili, minced garlic, and soy sauce), which intensifies the flavor. Those who enjoy strong tastes should definitely give it a try.
"Shrimp Red Oil Wontons"
This dish showcases a mastery of spices and chili oil, with a rich aroma and a layered spiciness that doesn’t burn the throat but rather slowly releases flavor on the palate. The wrappers of the wontons are thin yet resilient, encasing a generous filling of fresh shrimp. Biting into them brings a delightful blend of sweetness and the fragrance of red oil that is quite addictive. Even those who don’t enjoy spicy food can still appreciate this dish within a tolerable range of heat.
I usually pair the red oil wontons with fried rice, allowing me to enjoy two flavors at once. The number of wontons is just right to complement the last bite of fried rice, avoiding monotony.
In addition to these two main dishes I ordered this time, I also recommend their sesame noodles and stir-fried cabbage. If you order the pork ribs and prefer not to have pepper, be sure to inform the restaurant in advance.
Although the prices are slightly high, considering the quality of the ingredients and the details of the dishes, it's still an exquisite little restaurant worth trying. Whether you’re craving a plate of fragrant fried rice or seeking a bowl of fragrant and spicy red oil wontons, this place can satisfy your desires.
