Signature Dishes
Taiwanese meatball (rouyuan)
The oil-fried exterior is tender yet springy, with a generously filled center and a faint herbal-medicine aroma; it may be slightly powdery and soft, and it may also be on the oily side.
Glass-noodle soup
The broth is fragrant and smooth, with a pronounced pepper note, bamboo-shoot strips, and meat chunks; it pairs well with the rouyuan, and the noodles can be tossed with the rouyuan's leftover sauce, though the broth may be somewhat salty.
