I happened to be in the vicinity one fine day and spotted this cafe. I was craving for taiwanese foods pretty bad and decided to try it. Their menu is pretty impressive, they have most of the taiwanese foods listed but i have doubt of their authenticity but still, i went ahead to order braised meat rice (鲁肉饭) with a braised egg (卤蛋) and salted crispy chicken (盐酥鸡) out of curiosity.If you have never been to Taiwan and you have no comparison to be made then perhaps you might love the foods here.

If you have never been to Taiwan and you have no comparison to be made then perhaps you might love the foods here. The salted crispy chicken tasted alright, it got the light taste of basil leaves (九层塔) that commonly used together with their fried items in Taiwan.
But, i was not too impressed with their braised meat rice. I would prefer my braised meat to be much softer and it did not have a distinct five spice taste (五香) taste. I have tasted the better version in Taiwan thus not impressed.
And i decided to order a dessert to compliment my meal. I ordered the grass jelly in their milk tea dessert. The combination did not go too well and not to my liking.
