Came across this shop on Google maps and decided to check it out during my trip in Aug 2023. Didn't realize how popular it was until I saw a queue starting to form outside the shop even before it opens (I reached about 2 minutes just before opening hours).
My wife and I ordered 2 braised pork rice (1 big 1 small) with a braised egg each and it cost us just 110NT. The portion size was just nice and the taste of the braised pork was great! A simple, delicious meal that is very value for money.
By the time we were done with our meal just before noon, there was a long queue of more than 10 people formed outside the shop. It's a bit of a pity that the shop is rather small and there are only 12 seats within the shop, but it is cosy and pretty clean considering that the shop is located in a small alley.
Would definitely come back for the braised pork rice again the next time I pass by...

This is an eat-and-go type of place. You cannot take your own sweet time to eat. It's very small only tables enough for 12 pax.
Go straight to the cashier & order Dine in / to go Select dishes & pay You'll get a numbe with your receipt, wait for your number to be called.
If you are dining in, always ask the lady what's the number now so you can gauge how ling more to your number. We waited about 20 mins for 11 numbers in front of us. It's better if you come in small groups of 2 -4 pax. We use the 20 mins to buy drinks from the tea place around the corner.
Worth a visit &...
Read moreCame here with high expectations due to the good reviews, however we were quite disappointed. Ordered braised pork rice, egg, braised veg, bitter gourd soup and signature soup. Except for the braised pork rice, the rest were very average.
Very small eating place. We were a group of three, and had a table to ourselves initially. Half way thru our meal, a solo customer was put to join our table. There was another table with only one customer, so not sure why the stall needed to squeeze us. We felt a bit awkward because we were sharing dishes. The solo customer also felt awkward and was looking down throughout his meal.
Customer service was minimal, not friendly,...
