Xi City Braised Meat (Ming Feng Braised Meat Shop) Introduction
Xishi Lu Shou Rou started as a small stall in front of a wooden market during the Japanese colonial period. In times of scarcity, without refrigerators, food could only be preserved for a longer time through the method of brine curing, giving rise to this cooking style. Now in its third generation, Xishi Lu Shou Rou ensures that customers enjoy fresh ingredients by sourcing pork from vendors just before midnight to begin the cleaning and preparation process. Continuing the ancient method while adding innovation, it is particularly smoked with high mountain Oolong tea from Alishan, which enhances the aroma compared to traditional brine curing. Ordering a plate of assorted Lu Shou Rou allows you to savor a variety of ingredients such as pig lungs, pig tongues, crab meat cakes, rice sausage with sweet potato, etc., all dipped in a special sauce made from soy sauce, garlic puree, and mustard, delivering an exquisite taste.
