Xishan Village Fish Snack
Located next to the supervision station, it has long been famous for its mullet sashimi. The mullets come from Mingde Reservoir, free from earthy taste, with sweet, tender flesh rich in protein that is remarkably effective for wound healing. Even when fully booked, they insist on preparing only five mullets per meal to ensure freshness and quality. The village’s hairy crabs are also widely renowned—whether steamed, dry stir-fried or served as drunken crab, each variety has its own distinctive flavor. The drunken crab is prepared by using rice wine to stun live hairy crabs, producing crab roe and butter with a rich aroma, delicious crab soup, and tender meat that grows more flavorful with every bite. Additionally, signature dishes include preserved plum pork belly, Hakka stir-fry, perilla stir-fried duck tongue, and half-day bamboo shoot stir-fried preserved mustard greens. These are even more delightful when served with traditional wooden bucket rice. (Miaoli County)
