Reviews
Located at Taipei Station, the water-fried buns attract passing travelers. Sometimes, if you're looking to fill your stomach or want something to take on the train, you'll definitely stop by to buy some.
The price is quite affordable, only $20 each.
I really enjoy their water-fried buns, especially the thick, textured dough. The bottom has a nice crispy feel to it, and I find the filling to be very flavorful. Overall, I believe that $20 is indeed a great value.
I especially love their spicy sauce, which I always add to enhance the overall flavor. You can help yourself to the sauces and bags.
Interestingly, there's a handwashing station nearby, so you can wash your hands if you need to. There are also some seats available for travelers to sit down and have a little snack or rest for a while.
Located on B1 of Taipei Main Station, there are many snack and souvenir shops nearby. I decided to buy fried buns for lunch at noon.
Cabbage wrap $17
The ratio of glass noodles to cabbage is about 1:1, which is quite balanced. There are also some vegetarian mushrooms (?), but the amount is quite small, more like decoration; the seasoning is delicious, and you don’t feel like you are eating vegetarian buns.
Fresh meat buns $17
It's a little oily, and my whole mouth is oily after eating it. There are some green onions in the pork filling, and the seasoning is very good, but I think it's a little bit lacking, so I'm not satisfied.
I feel that the skin of both fried buns is a bit thick, and there will be a few bites where you can almost only eat the skin and not the fillings; but overall, they are delicious, and after eating two of them, I still feel that it is not enough.
I added some signature chili sauce, it’s just a little spicy, it’s pretty good and the taste is even better. People who dare to eat spicy food recommend it.
I remember buying Lao Cai fried buns for 8 yuan ten years ago. Now it is more than double. But buying two for lunch only costs 34 yuan, which is still acceptable. I will visit again~
After the meeting, I wanted to have a snack while commuting, so I decided to choose fried buns.
There were a lot of people queuing up, and I was hesitant between cabbage buns/chive buns and fresh meat buns, but in the end I felt that my choice was the right one! The fresh meat buns are warm, and the thickness of the dough is just right. It is not too thick and you can eat the noodles with good flavor. The meat filling is also delicious without the smell of pork and has a slight soup. I really regret not buying more. indivual.
The leek buns that my family ate were filled with leeks and glass noodles, and the pan-fried buns that were well received ~ I will buy more before taking the bus next time!
