Spanish Iberico Pork – NT$300
With marbling resembling marble, it doesn’t taste like regular pork at all. It’s more tender than usual pork, with a slight crispiness at the end that lingers on the palate. Unlike Matsusaka pork, its crispness comes from the fat rendered through the iron plate cooking.

Fermented Tofu Chicken – NT$270
Similar to the soy milk chicken often found in night markets, the sauce here uses handcrafted pineapple soy milk from Yilan. The pineapple brings out more sour-sweetness, making it less greasy while still rich. The chicken used is Taiwan native chicken, which has a firmer and springier texture. The restaurant opts not to use imported chicken, aiming instead to showcase quality local ingredients.

Crispy Fish Skin – NT$70
Fish skin is a staple in Tainan home cooking, but it's become rare these days. The owner says it's a way of expressing nostalgia for Taiwan by giving this old dish a creative twist. “Other places cook fish skin in soup, no one fries it. Only my mom used to make it this way.”

▲ Bacon with Tomato uses beef tomatoes. (Photo / Reporter Hu Shaofu)

Bacon with Tomato – NT$50
An Italian-style bacon and tomato dish. Many places use cherry tomatoes, but this restaurant uses whole beef tomatoes, balancing their flavor with the aroma of bacon and a simple sauce. Since beef tomatoes are juicier, the texture turns out more moist.

▲ Basil Egg Roll has a very layered flavor. (Photo / Reporter Hu Shaofu)

Basil Egg Roll – NT$50
A very nostalgic-tasting egg roll. Most egg rolls use Thai basil or are stir-fried, but this one is presented in a more Japanese-style omelet fashion, resulting in a dish with great depth of flavor.

Pan-Fried Beef Tendon – NT$100
A daily limited item at the shop, the beef tendon is braised using a secret family recipe until it becomes springy and tender—soft yet firm, but never mushy. It pairs excellently with beer.

Loofah with Fish Balls – NT$60
The fish balls here are made by spreading circular fish paste with a butter piping bag technique on the iron plate. “Our fish paste is made from milkfish, because we want to incorporate something originally from Tainan,” the boss said with a smile.
