taiwanese 🍚🇹🇼

not the best i’ve had but decent! the pork wasn’t overly fatty yet remaining tender and the braised sauce was flavourful. my only gripe is that there was too much sauce such that the rice soaked in it became mushy imo. but ig it’s a matter of preference since my bf liked it that way!

this might look unassuming but i assure you it tastes really good!! had a generous amount of tender shredded chicken and i liked the sauce used - savoury with a tinge of sweetness kinda resembling teriyaki. the scallion oil also made the rice extra fragrant! 🍚

mee sua was silky and flavourful but the consistency was way too starchy imo and i couldn’t get through an entire bowl cos it quickly became surfeiting 😥 adding the chilli definitely helped though as it added a much-needed spicy kick to the dish 👌🏻

first time trying this dish and it was unexpectedly good! really liked how crispy the skin was and it wasn’t too oily. paired well with the sweet chilli sauce it was served with!

have to get guan miao noodles whenever there’s an option for it 😌 chewy and springy with a firm bite! initially thought there was too little chilli but when mixed in, it was enough to coat every strand and still packed a punch. had the right balance of vinegary and spicy flavours 😋 the dumplings were not bad too though the skin could be slighly thinner

must say the wantons were great! huge, juicy and generously packed with fillings. however, the dish was overall underseasoned and tbh, bland 😥 maybe the chilli oil version would fare better and have more flavour!

seemingly small bowl but portion is actually quite substantial! loved how it had the right balance of fatty and lean meat + sauce wasn’t overly rich :) the pickled vegetables were quite mildly flavoured and didn’t add much to the dish though

a must-order here!! topped up $1 for guanmiao noodles which was a good choice, soft yet chewy 😋 the soup was rly flavourful and the beef chunks were super tender and braised well!! a faultless dish imo 👌🏻
