Datong District, Taipei City｜名古屋台所

The small Japanese restaurant near Shuanglian MRT station is amazing…except for certain aspects. Pros: the food is amazing, extremely flavorful, and great bang for your buck. They have specials on certain alcohols if you’d like to order in advance (they were doing Plum wines for $140 NT, down from $160 NT the day we visited). Cons: the amount of seats (all bar seating and extremely cramped, 6 inside and 4 outside), located on a street that still has cars driving by????, a 1+ hour wait if you aren’t there right at opening (we arrived at 4:57 PM, weren’t seated until 6:10 PM). Would recommend ordering the chicken when you get in.

Interesting small shop specializing in pork hamburger and kutsu. I really enjoy the hamburger with daikon and scallion, very refreshing and went with the meat well. The black miso kutsy and chicken wings, though were pretty good, were a bit on the salty side for my taste.

※Hand-made hamburger steak is delicious, with an evil half-boiled egg, served with rice and shredded lettuce to relieve the greasy, the hamburger steak is very solid, it is recommended to add 10 yuan more rice, it does not come with rice. ※Miso pork mayonnaise, the miso flavor is rich, and the konjac sticks in it are amazing, and the salty taste is just right when paired with mayonnaise
