Restaurants nearby
- Hung Chi Rice ShopBib As opposed to typical braised pork rice shops that can sometimes feel a little dated, this one boasts a bright, simple interior with full-length windows. The cartoon pig logo also makes it appealing to a younger audience. Despite its fresh look, the menu focusses on good old Taiwanese favourites. Braised pork rice is a must, and you have the option to top it with an over-easy egg. Do also order sides like braised cabbage, and pork tendon.1.4km
- Cheng Tsung Duck RiceBib This simple shop is always jam-packed with customers. Its signature is undoubtedly the eponymous duck rice – smoked duck pieces on steamed rice drizzled with a secret sauce. Another speciality, hand-sliced duck leg rice, is available in limited quantity, boasting smoky and juicy flesh. And of course, the duck also goes well with the array of noodles on offer. Try assorted duck offal soup, and side dishes made with bean sprouts.1.7km
- Erge Shih TangBib The room isn’t particularly spacious, but it does exude a homely feel. Similarly, the menu features Taiwanese home-style cooking, that is lightly seasoned and in smaller portions. The signature grilled Pacific saury in honey sauce is braised until the bones are tender and edible, perfect with a bowl of steamed rice, pork lard rice, or braised pork rice. Or you can opt for steamed taro root cake with shiitake and dried shrimps as starch.2.8km
- Mai Yen ShunBib Memorabilia and vinyl records mingle with glamorous portraits and obsolete farming tools in this nostalgic interior. In the same spirit, the menu compiles a list of some much-missed home-style Taiwanese classics of yesteryear. For the perfect companion to a bowl of steamed rice, order the fried chicken leg with old ginger in three-cup sauce, which delivers deep soy, basil and sesame flavours. Ask about the chef's specials on weekends.2.9km
- CRATAIN Cratain is a portmanteau of Tasmania’s Cradle Mountain, which the owner once climbed. He draws a parallel between his restaurant and mountaineering, using the pristine white space as a blank canvas for dishes finessed with well-honed European techniques. He offers a set menu with a choice of mains, alongside optional seasonal specialities. Meat, chargrilled or pan-seared, is the main event, but the pasta is also a highlight.1.2km
- Kuca Seafood Unlike many seafood joint, the room with blue-green walls and lots of greenery feels relaxed but also chic. The family business, run by a father and son, also stands out with a unique sense of humour in dish naming and the incorporation of Western produce in recipes like squid ink fried rice, which impresses with its strong, earthy aromas of truffle oil. Another popular dish, silky scrambled egg with sea urchin roe bursts with briny sweetness.1.7km
- Xiantaosu After a long stint in a Taipei vegetarian restaurant, the chef returned to his hometown, piquing curiosity with his refined plant-based cuisine. He serves three set menus with artfully plated courses that layer rich flavours. Varied techniques, such as fermenting, pickling, grilling, braising and searing, are deftly used to great effect. The vegan braised pork rice uses diced monkey head mushrooms instead of pork, creating light, briny umami.1.7km
- Hou Chi Duck RiceBib For over 40 years, Hou Chi has been attracting a loyal following with its tasty duck dishes. Its famously nourishing dang gui duck soup exudes deep herbal aromas; order it with noodles to make a complete meal. The signature duck rice comes with thickly sliced duck and pickled radish. Order an extra platter of smoked or braised duck if you fancy more protein. You can even specify which cuts you prefer.4.5km
- Yung YenBib Formerly known as Yun Lai Fang, this place was renamed and relocated to this address in 2024. The light-drenched room over two levels has wooden furnishings that impart a home-like feel. Regulars will find all their favourites on the menu; these are impeccably made to order by the chef, the son of Yun Lai Fang's founding chef. His signature scrambled egg comes with bouncy, umami-laden shrimps enrobed in silky half-set egg.4.7km
- Chao MingBib Now helmed by the second generation of the family, this well-known landmark of Taiwanese home-style cooking has been in business for over 60 years. Masterful control of heat and a dexterous use of sauces depict the food, most of which comes in three portion sizes. Hallmark dishes include stir-fried pork belly with garlic sprouts and stir-fried clams with mung bean sprouts. Wild-caught marine fish, braised or pan-fried, is also popular.5.0km
