About

Known for its crispy vegan bawan, this casual Taiwanese eatery also serves steamed vegan bawan, bamboo leaf-wrapped rice dumplings (zongzi), and grass jelly with plant-based creamer. Meals are very affordable, with any three items costing NT$100, and the venue operates on a cash-only basis. The zongzi can be dry, so some guests prefer adding soy sauce paste, and the salty aftertaste reported might be linked to additional condiments rather than the dishes themselves.
