This genuine institution has been around since 1933 and holds a special place in every Taichungese’s heart because of its no-frills tasty food and bargain prices. There are only three items on the menu. The meatball is a big translucent dumpling stuffed with peppery ground pork, topped with thick soy and a sweet white sauce made with sticky rice and cassava flour. Pair with either fish ball soup or glass noodle soup for a satisfying meal. Irregular opening hours, so call beforehand to check.
