Jinzhi Yuan Caodai Fan

Taichung


This small shop is famous for its stepped-up bento classics: rice with succulent fried pork chop (香酥排骨飯, xiāngsū páigǔ fàn) or with flavourful fried chicken leg (酥嫩雞腿飯, sū'nèn jītuǐ fàn). Veggies are NT$50. Get takeaway if the line is long. It's very close to Taichung train station.
