Matsu Grilled Fish Introduction
Matsu Taiyaki is believed by many Taiwanese people to be "red bean cakes in the shape of a tai fish," but for the Japanese, it carries a different meaning. During the feudal era, only nobles could eat real tai fish, so the common people made red bean cakes in the shape of tai fish to share in that grandeur. The owner, while working at a restaurant, was responsible for baking the dessert "taiyaki" for guests, which sparked the decision to start a business selling taiyaki. However, after opening the shop, he realized it was not that simple... After experiencing a low point in the early days of business, he slowly improved the recipe and has now developed as many as 15 sweet and savory flavors, which would likely surprise even the Japanese. In recent years, they launched a cream puff that bursts with filling, which has seen a surge in sales! The owner mentioned a turning point in their evolution was when a former restaurant supervisor came to support the business. After trying the taiyaki, the supervisor felt it was lacking and generously provided him with the taiyaki recipe, which he gradually adjusted, leading to the good reputation they have today. Additionally, his daughter is particularly fond of taiyaki, which made the owner feel a great responsibility. He stated, "I don't trust others to make it, so I decided to do it myself." Deliciousness and health are the core values of Matsu Taiyaki. No. 166-1, Beirong Street, West District, Chiayi City 0976 775 679 12:00 – 18:00 https://www.facebook.com/a0978506313
