Sanchong Jin Da Braised Pork Rice Introduction
If Turkey Rice is the representative dish of Chiayi, then praising Sanchong as the capital of Braised Pork Rice is not an exaggeration. From bustling streets to hidden gems reported by food shows and recommended by netizens, there are countless options. In addition to well-known establishments like Wu Deng Award, Ji Xiang Hao, Lian Wu, and Wei Feng, "Jin Da Lu Rou Fan," located on Da Ren Street in the Sanchong District, is also a super popular street food. Every day at 6 AM when the doors open, drivers, office workers, and small business owners flock to experience Jin Da's culinary charm. Operating for several decades and now in its second generation, Jin Da Lu Rou Fan is famous for its rich and flavorful braised pork rice. Unlike the typical braised pork rice known for a balanced proportion of fat and lean meat, or those made entirely with lean meat, Jin Da's version uses only fatty meat. However, as chef Huang Yuanquan previously worked at Qing Ye Restaurant, not only does he possess exceptional skills, but he also uses a broth made from old hens and pig bones to create the meat sauce, employing a unique braising method. He generously pours the fatty meat sauce over soft white rice, making it not greasy at all, but rather enjoyable and delicious.
