Shilin District, Taipei City｜Song Jiang Pie & Porridge

If you like diners this is a Chinese version of one. Very traditional pastries with beef, scallion pancake type place. My fave, other than the beef pastry, 牛肉餡餅, is the veggie steamed dumplings 花素蒸餃. Not sure if it's entirely vegetarian but they are so tasty! If you are on a diet or try to eat light just do the steamed stuff. Other things tend to be oilier, which I don't mind. A lot of people like their chives pockets 韭菜盒子, but I'm always too full to order that. Price is super reasonable. We (two people) came away stuffed at just over 300 nt. Can't beat that!The line is always long so go just before they open at 10:45. You might beat the crowd. Most people go there for take out anyway, so wait should never be too long.

Really decent traditional Chinese cuisine Price is reasonable and food tastes awesome Highly recommended
