The dishes are diverse, the fried items are not greasy, the chicken skin is crispy, and the handmade sweet and spicy sauce with fried peanut rice balls tastes good. The skewers are on the cold side, and the texture is lacking.

🍢 Mr. Long's Salt & Pepper Chicken
📍 No. 9, Lane 410, Jingxin Street, Zhonghe District, New Taipei City 235 (Xingnan Night Market)
🕰 16:00–00:00
🥲 This meal was a bit disappointing… We ordered a total of 13 items for $504, but the one I was most looking forward to, the salt & pepper chicken, was missing. I called the restaurant and they said I could pick it up next time, but I had already left, so I'll have to wait until next time.
🍢 The skewers were cold! The lamb skewers for $40, thick-cut beef skewers for $40, and chicken butt for $30 all tasted lukewarm, which affected the texture — not great. On the other hand, the fried egg tofu for $40, green beans for $40, and baby corn for $40 were more acceptable among the vegetable options.
🍄 The king oyster mushrooms (small portion) for $40, century egg for $25, and taro skewers for $16 were average, nothing memorable. The chicken skin (medium portion +$20) for $60 was crispy enough. Handmade sweet and spicy fish cakes for $35 and fried peanut glutinous rice balls for $35 were the highlights of the meal, with good aroma and frying technique.
📞 The fact that an item was missing really impacted the experience, and combined with the skewers being cold, the overall feeling wasn't great. I hope they can deliver the missing salt & pepper chicken next time and also pay attention to the temperature and completeness of the dishes.
