A distinctive Taiwanese restaurant with small portions; the kitchen by the counter can make cooking smoke more noticeable.

Signature Dishes

  • Braised pork rice

    The braising sauce has a pronounced gelatinous richness, with a good lean-to-fat balance and a savory-sweet flavor that goes well with rice; with a soft-boiled egg, it may taste a little light, and the rice may also be too soft with the braising flavor not fully absorbed.

  • Peppery fresh beef cheek

    The beef is braised first and fairly tender, with a mildly numbing pepperiness; the aroma is pronounced but not harshly spicy.

  • Young chive and oyster roll

    Like a spring-roll version of an oyster fritter, with a crisp exterior; the oyster quality may vary.

  • Four-treasure soup

    The soup is fresh and flavorful, with the radish and ribs cooked until tender.

  • Crispy shredded chicken

    Shredded chicken mixed with fried taro, burdock, and sweet-potato strips, dressed with sesame sauce; the textures are varied.

What you should know

  • The entrance is through a small door to the left of 韓石館; the storefront is not very conspicuous.
  • The first floor has one small round table and an L-shaped counter, so sharing dishes with a larger group is less convenient.
  • There has been an occasion when no soup was available to order at lunchtime.
