Xi City Lu Shou Rou (Ming Feng Lu Shou Rou Dian) Introduction
Xishi Lu Rou Shi (Xishi Braised Pork) started as a small stall in front of the wooden market during the Japanese colonial period. In times of material scarcity and without refrigerators, food could only be preserved longer through salt brine, leading to this cooking method. Now in its third generation, Xishi Lu Rou Shi ensures customers enjoy fresh ingredients by starting to procure goods from pig vendors around midnight for cleaning and preparation. Continuing with traditional methods while innovating, they specifically use high mountain oolong tea from Alishan for smoking, enhancing the aroma compared to regular saltwater braised products. Order a plate of assorted braised meats to savor pig lung, pig tongue, crab cake, rice intestine with sweet potato, and more, all dipped in a special sauce made with soy sauce, garlic paste, and mustard, providing a delicious experience.
