 Of course we ordered the signature Pig Intestines and Meatball Mee Sua, authentic soupy in a light brown colour. Most traditional way of doing where it was handmade rather than machine, the bowl was delicious at the same time scrumptious indeed with a dash of vinegar. Our table was full of many street foods such as dumplings, deep-fried salt pepper chickens and mini sausages, all of them really tasted better than expected. Don’t worry about the price, they were wallet-friendly.

During lunch time at JEM, I was wondering what to eat. Hence I passed by this Taiwanese eatery and decided to have a try.

Their menu prices are quite high as compared to other restaurants nearby. 

I had ordered a Taiwanese Beef Noodle which cost about $15.

The bowl of beef noodles had generous amount of beef slices.

The soup tasted thick and somewhat like instant noodle soup. No beef stock tasted.

The noodles were springy type and similar to Japanese udon.

The beef meat was nicely braised with enough tenderness and braised taste.

Average food with too expensive prices

The rows of red lanterns will catch any food hunter's attention at JEM... yes it's Lee's Taiwanese! I've always been curious about how Lee's Taiwanese would fare since there are many Taiwanese shops in Singapore that failed to match up to the real McCoy. Curiosity always warrants a trip down to try it for myself. Upon seeing the menu, I knew the prices here wayyy higher than what I'm willing to pay, especially since Taiwan food is always good AND cheap. Well, let's see what they can offer! These

 These peanuts are part of the appetizer, usually I'll ignore them but upon trying (because I was starving) - they are interestingly sweet and addictive. The portion is ridiculously small though.

 6pcs Taiwanese Mini Sausage ($6.90)
Tasty and slightly salted, not bad, but can't really go wrong with this.

 Salt & Pepper Chicken ($6.90)
I enjoyed this more than the mini sausages, it is extremely well-flavoured and reminds me a bit of Shihlin's TW Street snacks... unfortunately I think Shihlin could do it similarly well at a lower price.

 Braised Minced Pork Rice ($10)
Somewhat similar to the real thing, but still quite a distance away from perfection. The braised pork is soft and tender enough for me, but the tofu is a bit hard. The cucumber is a lovely touch to it all because it was getting a little dry and the cucumber provided some moisture.

The service was a little less than satisfactory though, because the menu was a little confusing to understand but they did not really bother to explain to us much.

It had been nearly a year since Lee’s Taiwanese had opened it’s first outlet in Singapore, and there is already a second outlet located at JEM. Lee’s Taiwanese is apparently started by a Taiwanese whom have relocated in Singapore, and claims that the restaurant brings authentic and genuine tastes of Taiwan Street Snacks to Singapore.

Ala-Carte options are available on the menu, though generally the Deluxe and Premium Set Meals brings more value to the meals in general by adding a side and a drink. Do note that some items are only available in Ala-Carte and not included in the set meal promotions though.

 Two of us went for the Braised Pork Belly Rice and it was filled with hidden treasures. Other than Braised Pork Belly, it came with preserved vegetables, snow bean curd and a slice of taiwan sausage hidden right underneath. The Braised Pork Belly had pretty much of the fatty meat layer which melted in the mouth, though it was pretty evident that it was not braised deep enough as it did not reach the middle. The preserved vegetables were rather decent, while the snow bean curd was thinly sliced and chewy with the signature taste of tofu. We requested for more gravy, but it seemed rather bland and just tasteless somehow.

 Salt & Pepper Chicken was something we had high expectations of but really fell flat on the face. The chicken was fried pretty fine, but left us wondering if the chef had completely forgotten to season it with salt & pepper before serving it to us. No doubt it was fragrant, but it was missing the plot to the main story.

 Snow Bean Curd was the same ones that appeared in the Braised Pork Belly Rice. Silken and bouncy, the taste was pretty heavy and while it was manageable for both of us to finish the ones in our bowl, it was a bit too much for us to continue on the ones ordered as sides.

 Sweet Potato Fries really stood out from the other side dishes we ordered that night. The crispy batter and the sweetness in the fries coupled with the sourness from the plum powder really won us that night. There was just an adequate amount of plum powder sprinkled on the sweet potato fries that it was evenly balanced on flavour and not heavily spammed with flavouring.

This is my favourite, the intestines were well cleaned/treated and there wasn’t any stinky smell that you would usually get from innards. It’s toothsome!

 I will go for Braised Minced Pork Rice - $10 than the former as it has a more variety of items added, braised minced pork, a sliced of Taiwanese sausage, vegetables, half a braised egg and vegetables mixed together with rice.

 These cups of "Pao Pao Cha" (Bubble Tea) tastes similar to the common ones from a Bubble tea shop just that the amount of ice added is a lot.

 The total bill for the night. I would say that dishes are simply overpriced and food is just run-of-the-mill. With similar pricing, you can get better mee sua and bubble tea from a mall too, no point burning a pocket hole unless you want to buy an experience.

Overall... a mediocre meal to cure your hunger but if you are looking for real authentic Taiwan food, this might not be a place for you.
