⭐⭐⭐pan-fried milkfish belly TWD$160(≈USD 5.1)

pan-fried milkfish belly

The pan-fried fish is perfectly cooked with a golden brown color, making my mouth water. 🤤🤤🤤

Taking a bite, is this what happiness feels like?!

You can pair it with pepper and lemon according to personal preference.

⭐⭐Blanched Milkfish Skin TWD$100(≈USD 3.2)

Blanched Milkfish Skin

The fish skin is handled very cleanly, unlike some places where you can still find scales that are not properly cleaned…

Served with ginger shreds and bean sprouts on the side, it tastes refreshingly delightful.

💔Oyster Omelet TWD$75(≈USD 2.4)

Oyster Omelet

As a big fan of Oyster Omelet, I definitely had to give it a try.

The appearance is indeed eye-catching, especially the crispy crust.

In terms of taste, it’s decent and meets expectations.

However, the crucial point lies in the “but” part. The excessive greasiness of the crispy crust almost made it difficult for me to finish. This aspect is definitely a negative point.

It’s a case of having a crispy crust that succeeds in terms of appearance, but fails in terms of taste.

⭐⭐Fried Oyster TWD$150(≈USD 4.8)

Fried Oyster

The oysters are exceptionally large, and each one looks plump and juicy.

With just one bite, you can taste the freshness that resembles being by the seaside in Keelung.

Golden Fried Tofu TWD$50(≈USD 1.6)

Golden Fried Tofu

It’s very normal, you can skip this dish and find stinky tofu in night market, that’s more delicious.
