Yuzu Blossom Youth Hakka Cuisine - Taoyuan Branch Introduction
In 2016, Yuzu Blossom was recognized as a Golden Medal Restaurant and recommended for its specialties in Taoyuan: Braised Pork with Pickled Plum, Dry Fire, Three-Flavor Pig, and Kumquat-Orange Pickled Pork. Established in 2012, Yuzu Blossom emerged as a brand offering innovative Hakka cuisine. Through the team's effort, it received honors such as certification from the Hakka Affairs Council as a Hakka Cuisine Demonstration Restaurant and designation as a Grade A Health Excellence Restaurant in Taoyuan County. Additionally, in 2013, it was invited to participate in the Hakka Expo to promote Hakka culture both domestically and internationally. The name Yuzu Blossom reflects the childhood memories of Chairman Lin, who had two pomelo trees planted in front of his home. Every March, the fragrance of pomelo blossoms filled the air, signaling that he was close to home. Each dish comes with its own story; for example, the "Bitterness to Sweetness Fortune Pot" innovatively wraps traditional Hakka fortune vegetables in bitter melon, showcasing a remarkable transformation from bitter to sweet. The Dry Fire dish is also unique; it symbolizes the significance of preserved vegetables to many Hakka people who once sheltered from American bombardments. This dish features organic preserved vegetables stir-fried with fresh tender chicken, complemented by a uniquely spicy sauce and topped with shredded burdock, creating a visually striking presentation. The classic Braised Pork with Pickled Plum, a staple at most Hakka restaurants, also has its own original twist here...
