Restaurants in Cijin Old Street

For someone like me, whose understanding of vegetarian food was limited to temple-style dishes, the vegetarian options at Guo Ran Hui truly opened my eyes and refreshed my palate, both in terms of variety and flavor. The beef-less 'beef' noodle soup, in particular, was like molecular gastronomy. However, since most of the dishes are mushroom-based, those with gout should be mindful when visiting.

Michelin Bib Gourmand Recommended: Old Master's Restaurant - Dingshan Branch - Kaohsiung. The owner is friendly, the food is delicious, and there are great discounts when paired with the High-Speed Rail.

Price: Inexpensive, semi-buffet with salad, cooked dishes, and dessert. Service: Excellent, especially when notified that a Klook voucher was purchased. Food Taste: Main courses are good, portion sizes are adequate.

On weekdays, the crowd isn't too large, and the food variety is decent, but there are no crab legs in the cold dishes, which was a bit disappointing for the evening buffet. Alcoholic beverages include beer, white wine, and red wine.

The ingredients are incredibly fresh and top-notch! The fish was steamed, which speaks to its quality; the shrimp in the cold appetizer could be easily peeled, even the last three segments of the tail; the guava was crisp and not mushy; the black beans at the salad bar weren't over-seasoned or overly sweet, allowing their natural bean flavor to shine through; and the taro cheesecake in the dessert section was perfectly balanced, with the taro and cheese flavors complementing each other without competing. The main courses were more standard but still impeccable, with precise cooking and seasoning. All of this demonstrates the Tea House's meticulous selection of ingredients and the chef's dedication and professionalism. I brought my parents here, and everyone was extremely satisfied. We'll definitely be back! 10/10

Restaurant Location: Approximately a five to ten-minute walk from the Light Rail "Wanzai Nei" station 🚉, this Michelin Bib Gourmand restaurant is nestled in an alleyway. 😍 Highly recommended! 👍🏻 Restaurant Environment: The dining area is spacious, comfortable, and brightly lit, and the restrooms are clean. Price: While not a budget-friendly option, the prices are fair and offer great value for money. Set meals provide better savings. Food Taste: The duck meat is generously portioned, tender, and not dry. The fish soup retains its fresh, original flavor. The rice portion is ample, and when paired with the cabbage and pickled radish, it creates a refreshing and non-greasy meal. Service: The owner is friendly, hospitable, and passionate about service. During our meal, there were also foreign travelers at the next table who had come from afar specifically to try this restaurant.

Last week, I purchased a High-Speed Rail travel package on Klook, and today at noon, I'm enjoying the Michelin Bib Gourmand recommended set meal from Hotel Royal's restaurant that I added on. 😋😋😋
