Just looking at them makes you feel full！ It’s no surprise that Taiwan loves “all-you-can-eat” dining, but there are far fewer people who dare to take on mega-sized dishes. Aside from the fear of feeling overly stuffed or not being able to finish, many still believe that "too much of a good thing isn't always better." But even celebrities are taking on these massive meals—today, let’s take a closer look at Taiwan’s jumbo-portion restaurants！

1. Huge Burger

The giant burger here is as big as a 6-tier birthday cake, making it 4 to 6 times the size of a regular burger. Thanks to its large portion, you can choose 2 to 3 different main fillings, and because they’re spread out, the flavors don’t interfere with each other—ordering one burger gives you the satisfying experience of multiple tastes.

2. Rika Japanese Curry Specialty Shop

Rika’s curry is made with nutrient-rich ingredients such as plenty of carrots, potatoes, vegetables, health mushrooms, and yams as the base, simmered for hours with authentic imported Japanese curry blocks. It also specially uses high-quality Taiwan Nantou Zhuoshui River Taikeng No. 9 rice for the perfect chewy, springy, and delicious texture. Here, if you can finish a 2.6 kg mega curry rice within 20 minutes, your meal is free—even the comedy duo HowHow & Jia Ling have taken on the challenge.
