Peeled Chilli Pepper Chicken Soup (剝皮辣椒雞湯)

This signature soup is the star of the show. Reviewers love its clear yet flavourful broth and gentle chilli warmth. Eatbook praised its balanced heat and natural sweetness from the chicken in their detailed review here.

Clam Chicken Soup / Fish & Clam Soup

🍜 Noodles & Rice Bowls

Spicy Sesame Noodles (愛恨椒芝麵)

A crowd favourite. The Ranting Panda described this dish as “rich, nutty, aromatic and wonderfully addictive” in their review here.

Scallion Oil or Truffle Noodles

A lighter but still flavourful option, pairing especially well with any of the soups.

Lu Rou Fan (滷肉飯)

Simple, satisfying, and very Taiwanese—though their noodle dishes generally shine more.


🍢 Taiwanese Night-Market Style Snacks

Expect nostalgic, homely flavours such as braised tofu, pig’s ear, Taiwanese tempura (甜不辣), and rice blood cake. Great for sharing and completing the street-food experience.


🥤 Drinks & Desserts

From roselle tea to aiyu jelly, the drink menu offers refreshing options to complement heavier noodle dishes.
