AT THE TABLE!

Attracted by red and blue neon lights, I head towards Xiong he jia like flies to honey.. I sit at a quiet table and I see the parade before my eyes Fearless meat with spicy sauce, powerful and tasty; steamed vegetable dumplings, airy and delicate; some classic Taiwanese baos with braised pork, pickled mustard and peanut powder, and the famous rice lurou stewed meat, vegetables and egg. I'll investigate a little, and it seems that in Taiwan baos are bought at street stalls and eaten while walking, There are places where they only prepare rice lurou, stewed with cinnamon stick, star anise, sugar rock and shallot. On this small island they usually combine these bites with a bubble tea, fascinating drink whose traditional variant is black tea with tapioca balls. And I know all this now from the owners of this small restaurant that prepares even the dough of the shaomai, Taiwanese who want to show the small treasures of their island to diners who know how to appreciate them. Xiong he jia, you have gained an addict. MADAME G.
