Binge Eating Taipei 001 | The Deliciousness of the Locals - Shih's Sesame Oil Chicken.

🍛 As a foodie, searching for delicious food in the alleys is the beginning of daily life. To get the key to Taiwan's deliciousness🔑, it is crucial to understand the cultural origins of the city. Guess what it is? 🍛 The map of Taiwan's alleyway food cannot be separated from the temples that were bustling with incense in the early years. The popular spots where devout believers come and go daily are the gathering places for food. Taiwan's top delicacies often only have a simple signboard, and many famous old shops don't even have paper menus, instead, they directly print the signature dishes and prices on the signboard. The shopkeepers who take orders are all skilled, memorizing all the dishes you want, including 'I want my soup without green onions, more ginger🫚, more soup' or 'Rice noodle soup, no bean sprouts, extra chives, add more vinegar', etc., and then serve the dishes with precision. Isn't it amazing? Shih's Sesame Oil Chicken is an old shop established for 62 years, featuring delicious soup with large chunks of meat at stable prices. They don't raise prices just because there's a long queue, and it has always been my favorite shop❤️ 🍛 Sesame oil chicken is a must-order signature dish, with a full sesame oil soup base, generously topped with 4 large chunks of free-range chicken leg, enough to make you cry with joy. 🍛 Kidney flower soup is also a must-order, delivered fresh daily without any gamey taste. The pork liver soup is also very tender, the devil is in the details👍 🍛 Braised pork rice is an absolute classic Taiwanese snack, mix it with the sauce and the bowl of rice is gone in no time. 🍛 Fried tofu for 10 TWD, shredded bamboo shoot stew for 25 TWD, these affordable side dishes are not to be missed. Three people had a meal for 480 TWD, so full!
