"I live just up the street from this place and I had just moved to Madison from California when I saw signs that a Taiwanese place was opening on State. It seemed like a sign that maybe this place could become a home and I was eager to try it when it opened. I had the popcorn chicken a couple weeks after the place opened and was pretty impressed. I had made sure to keep my expectations low since my mom is Taiwanese and I've been back a couple times and had pretty delicious street food from night markets. The breading on the popcorn chicken was perfect, the meat itself was moist, and it was seasoned well. \n\nI went back about a month later with my partner, who has never tried Taiwanese food. I ordered a tea egg for us to share, he ordered the popcorn chicken bowl, and I got the braised pork bowl for myself. The tea egg was okay, not nearly as flavorful as the kind my grandma makes (but maybe that seems like an unrealistic standard to compare this to?). The bowls were really yummy --\u00A0both our meats were well-cooked and flavorful, the pickles veggies had just the right punch, the broccoli was steamed well, and the rice not too soft, not too hard. Overall, it was a really satisfying meal. I even sent a picture to my mother and she approved. My partner really enjoyed it too - he sent me a picture of him eating there without me a week after we went! I'm pleased to have a place serving Taiwanese comfort food just down the street and I'm excited to come back and try their boba milk tea."^^ . "4"^^ . "2"^^ . . "0"^^ . "2018-01-03T00:00:00"^^ . . .
