My recent dining experience left much to be desired. The stinky tofu itself was barely tolerable, but the overall visit was quite unpleasant. Let me elaborate. To begin with, the menu was positioned in such a way that it was difficult to read due to the duct, forcing me to walk into the kitchen to view it. All at once, I was reprimanded by the ordering staff for entering the kitchen, adding to the negative experience. Additionally, when my family and I ordered three servings of stinky tofu, the staff instructed us that only one person could approach the counter to collect the order. It seemed unreasonable to expect one person to carry three full plates of stinky tofu. This lack of consideration for customers' needs was disheartening. Finally, the restaurant was packed with customers and lacked air conditioning, making it uncomfortable to endure the sweltering summer heat while consuming our meal.

It’s quite far out of Taipei but this is one dish I will remember for a long long time. Cannot...
Read moreIts stinky tofu was top notch, but the eating area was totally unbearable. It would appear that due to its popularity, the ownership thought AC can be spared in Taiwan summer. Wrong! If this place has a half decent air conditioned dining area, then it would deserve a 5*.
The tofus themselves were tasty and freshly made. The mixture of soy milk and ice tea was a first for us and tasted unexpectedly good.
