Budai / Black Skin Creative Seafood Restaurant Introduction
"Heipi" is a phonetic translation of "happy." The third-generation owner of Heipi Seafood Restaurant, You Zhihao, hopes to provide guests with a joyful dining experience. Having previously worked as a research and development technician at Zhengxiang Food Company in Puzi City, the young and creative You Zhihao developed the restaurant's signature dish: the Giant Crispy Seafood Meatball, made from eight local seafood ingredients, which is a fusion of Eastern and Western cuisine that is highly favored by consumers. Heipi Seafood Restaurant is located next to the Budai Tourist Fish Market and has twenty tables for group dining to accommodate the endless flow of tour buses. The most famous dish is the Giant Crispy Seafood Meatball, which claims to weigh over 300 grams with sauce, and is a perennial champion in meatball competitions. The restaurant's website also offers online sales and home delivery services. You Zhihao has also opened chain stores in Chiayi City and Minxiong, aiming to expand the Heipi seafood cuisine brand. Due to his high academic background and expertise in online marketing, Heipi Seafood Restaurant is one of the few establishments in the coastal area of Chiayi that utilizes internet marketing. It has attracted numerous visitors from outside the area, thanks to its creative food marketing, and has been featured in various food programs on television. The "Giant Crispy Seafood Meatball" is currently the largest mass-produced meatball in the country, weighing 9 taels (33 ounces) without sauce.
