[2025 Taipei Restaurant] Travel Guide for Dadaocheng Braised Pork Rice (Updated Mar)

When foreign friends visit Taipei, they often love to explore several unique attractions. Dadaocheng and Dihua Street are usually must-visit spots. Among them, they especially love to go for this bowl of braised pork rice. It's already quite famous in Wanhua. Although I'm not a braised pork rice enthusiast, I can call it one of the representatives among many classic snacks! 🌟 The braised pork here is mostly fatty meat. I don't eat fatty meat, but my friends love its rich yet not greasy taste. They also love pairing it with spicy pickled vegetables, which surprisingly taste quite good! I always remind them to add a half-cooked fried egg. Mixing the egg yolk with the rice is the classic way to enjoy it 😋. For those who can handle the heat, adding the chili sauce on the side makes for a perfect combination! 🌟 For those who love intestines, you can order the old braised large intestines. Other options like braised cabbage, bamboo shoots, pork knuckles, and braised pork belly can turn a snack shop into a feast. Don't forget to order the radish rib soup for a satisfying meal! 💯 If you have the chance to bring foreign friends to Dadaocheng, a food tour here is a must. The combination of large chunks of fatty and lean braised pork with rich soup and half-cooked egg rice is delightful. The taste and environment are great, and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommended 👍 📍 No. 17, Lane 220, Chang'an West Road, Datong District, Taipei City

Dadaocheng Braised Pork Rice, nestled in the heart of Taipei’s historic Dadaocheng district, offers an irresistible twist on traditional Taiwanese comfort food. The star of the dish is tender, melt-in-your-mouth braised pork belly, slowly simmered in a savory, rich sauce that infuses the rice with deep, umami flavors. The dish is topped with a perfectly cooked egg, its yolk oozing luxuriously over the braised pork and rice, adding a velvety richness that takes every bite to the next level. What makes the experience even more authentic is the tradition of eating it with chopsticks—no spoons here. Using only chopsticks to grab the tender pork and slurp up the flavorful rice creates an intimate connection to the dish, amplifying the satisfaction of each bite. The simplicity of this dish, paired with the indulgence of the runny egg, strikes the perfect balance between comfort and indulgence. Set against the picturesque backdrop of Dadaocheng’s old streets, this iconic meal transports you straight into the heart of local Taiwanese food culture. With its oozing egg and robust flavors, Dadaocheng Braised Pork Rice is a must-try for anyone craving authentic, flavorful comfort food that leaves you coming back for more. #newyearnewtrip

#GlobalTravel You must try braised pork rice when you come to Taiwan This braised pork rice is located in Dadaocheng near Taipei Main Station It only takes about five to ten minutes to walk from Taipei Main Station I highly recommend it to everyone. It is cheap and delicious A big bowl of braised pork rice only costs 40 Taiwan dollars And the portion is very large and very worthwhile In addition, I highly recommend the middle pig's trotter The pig's trotter is cooked very soft and tastes full of gelatin It's very delicious! However, since it is a popular restaurant, even if we arrived right after it opened, we still had to wait for about half an hour. Be prepared to queue~ #台北美食 #台北
