The restaurant has a simple style, with a clean dining environment, and an overall atmosphere leaning towards a homely type of restaurant. There are not many decorations, but it gives off a feeling of being dedicated to perfecting the dishes. Right next door is also a mosque in Kaohsiung.
This time we ordered beef soup, stir-fried water spinach, and a beef offal platter. As soon as the beef soup arrived at the table, the broth was clear, smooth, and pleasant to drink. The slices of beef were soft and tender, not overcooked or tough, and paired with the refreshing broth, it made for a great opening to the meal, balancing out the more chewy offal dishes that followed.
The stir-fried water spinach was cooked just right, maintaining the crisp texture of the vegetables, with a moderate amount of garlic flavor. It was neither oily nor salty, serving as a good palate cleanser on the table. The main highlight was the beef offal platter, which included beef tendons, tripe, and shank meat. The beef tendons were braised thoroughly, with a chewy texture that was not sticky; the tripe was cleaned well, providing a layered chewiness; and the shank meat had clear muscle fibers, with the braising sauce flavor penetrating the meat without being overly salty. Each of the three cuts had its own characteristics, and together they offered a diverse eating experience, satisfying different expectations for offal in one meal.
Overall, for those who enjoy beef, offal dishes, or have halal dietary needs, this is a Kaohsiung restaurant worth visiting and suitable for return visits.
