Xi City Lu Shou Meat (Ming Feng Lu Shou Meat Shop) Introduction
Xishi Braised Meat started as a small stall in front of a wooden market during the Japanese colonial period. During times of scarce resources, without refrigerators, food could only be preserved longer through brining in salt, giving rise to this cooking method. Now in its third generation, Xishi Braised Meat ensures customers enjoy fresh ingredients by sourcing pork from suppliers just before midnight, then starting the cleaning and preparation process. Continuing with traditional techniques while also innovating, the meat is particularly smoked with high mountain oolong tea from Alishan, adding more aroma compared to regular brined meats. Ordering a plate of mixed braised meats allows you to savor pig's lungs, pig's tongue, crab rice cakes, vermicelli sausage, and rice blood cake mixed with sweet potato, all dipped in a special sauce made from soy sauce, garlic paste, and mustard—one bite delivers a taste of heavenly deliciousness.
