金枝紅糟素肉圓

Record your visit. The restaurant we ate at was "Jin Zhi Hong Zhi Meat Balls" (note ⚠️ it was the one in the middle or back section when you walked in, not the two in the front). The items we ordered included meat balls, flower ball soup, and golden kimchi ball soup. Maru's selfie spot is next to Amei Tea House, and the stop sign seats are also nearby. After visiting Jiufen, you can take 1062 directly to Raohe Night Market at Songshan Station. ​

There are many kinds of delicious snacks on the old street, such as meatballs, red bean cakes, fish balls, etc. A common feature of the food here is that the appearance is particularly exquisite, which makes people feel very appetizing and want to buy. In addition, the price is not expensive.

This shop specializes in red fermented rice meatballs, and the business is very good. It is a local snack, with meatballs of various shapes and sweet and spicy sauce. The meatballs are filled with meat and glutinous rice outside, and the taste is good. The price is affordable.

Red fermented rice wine meatballs are different from traditional meatballs. They are colorful, fragrant and delicious. Paired with hot pot fish balls, it is indeed a perfect combination. In the mountain city of Jiufen, you can enjoy traditional local food while appreciating the beautiful scenery. What else can you ask for in life?

The only shop in Jiufen Old Street that makes red rice wine meatballs is the Jinzhiyu Red Rice Wine Meatballs. The red rice wine must be fermented in a certain autumn, and the filling is pork. The white dough wrapped outside is a mixture of cornstarch, sweet potato flour, and rice flour. It tastes chewy, and the pork inside is tender and not too old. They are all made and eaten right here, so they are very fresh. If you like, you can buy a box and cook it yourself. In addition to red rice wine meatballs, there are other meatball soups here that you can also try.

It feels like the salted pork dumplings we have here, but they are very big. I bought them one by one, and one is enough to fill me up. The meat is very big, and there is a lot of glutinous rice on the outside. The meat inside is red and has been marinated.

There are several Jinzhi Red Rice Balls on Jiufen Old Street. We randomly picked one and went in to try it. Red Rice Balls are the specialties here. I have never seen them before. The skin is translucent and a little sticky. Inside is meat filling and bamboo shoots. It has the taste of spices and is slightly sweet. Throw it into the oil pan and fry it. I don’t think it tastes very good. It’s mainly to satisfy my curiosity as a tourist. It’s a more special snack here. There are also fish ball soup, squid ball soup, etc. in the store. They are relatively light and go well with each other.
