Even celebrities take on the eating challenge: Taiwan's four oversized meals

Just looking at them is enough to make you full! It’s no surprise that Taiwan loves “all-you-can-eat” culture, but there are far fewer daredevils willing to take on jumbo-sized dishes. Aside from the fear of being both stuffed and unable to finish, many still believe that “too much of a good thing isn’t always better.” But even these oversized meals have caught the attention of celebrities. Today, let’s take a closer look at Taiwan’s giant portion restaurants!

1. Huge Burger

The jumbo 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 generous portion, you can choose 2 to 3 different main ingredients for the filling. Since they’re spread out rather than stacked, the flavors don’t clash—ordering one burger gives you the satisfying experience of multiple tastes.

2. Rika Japanese Curry Specialty Shop

Rika’s curry is made with a broth base of nutrient-rich ingredients such as plenty of carrots, potatoes, vegetables, health mushrooms, and yams. It’s simmered for hours with authentic imported Japanese curry blocks. What makes it even more special is the use of high-quality Taiwan Nantou Zhuoshui River Taijing No. 9 rice, resulting in a perfectly chewy, fragrant, and delicious texture. Here, if you can finish a 2.6 kg jumbo curry rice within 20 minutes, your meal is free—even the HAO JIAO XIANG QI duo has taken on the challenge.
