Xinmingjin Food and Beverage Introduction
Xingmingjin Restaurant was originally Xingmingjin Fish Ball Shop. It is located in the East Market of Chiayi City and has a rich history of 50 years, serving freshly made fish balls and ready-to-eat foods. In addition to fresh grocery stores, Xingmingjin's customers also include many hot pot restaurants and snack shops in the surrounding counties and cities of Chiayi. In 2002, the owner transformed the business into a dining establishment on Ren'ai Road, integrating traditional snacks with modern light meals in response to customer suggestions and trends. It not only preserves traditional flavors like fish balls and deep-fried burdock but also allows customers to enjoy various dishes including baked and hot pot cuisines. Due to its local characteristics and incorporation of new culinary elements, Xingmingjin was selected as one of Chiayi City's famous stalls and specialties by the Department of Commerce of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in 2004, and in 2007, it was also chosen as a selected store by the Zhu Luo Art Family in Chiayi City and a featured restaurant for the International Band Festival. In recent years, it has received numerous honors, including being recognized as one of the top ten distinctive snacks in Chiayi City, one of Taiwan's top hundred gourmet snacks, and obtaining the National GSP service certification.
