| - Taiwanese food is one of my all time favorite cuisines, so I was thrilled to learn that this restaurant opened two blocks away from me! Friends and I came in to try their minced pork rice, fried chicken cutlet, popcorn chicken, Taiwanese sausage, and roasted oolong milk tea with boba.
Their minced pork rice was on point, but could definitely do with more pork.
As for the chicken cutlet, I was hoping it would taste similar to Hot Star Chicken in Taipei, but it's got a slightly different flavor. I'm wondering if it's because we decided to try the BBQ flavor instead of the Taiwanese spice one. Besides the flavor discrepancy, the actual chicken was very juicy and delicious!
I really enjoyed the popcorn chicken and its spice and crunch! Only wish it had some fried crispy basil too!
The milk tea wasn't my favorite, but I'd be willing to try other flavors or maybe mess around with the sugar ratios in the future.
Overall, I am happy to support this establishment which serves some pretty authentic Taiwanese eats! I cannot wait to come here more in the future and try out their other meals.
