AUTHENTIC TAIWANESE EATERY WITH SIGNATURE 卤肉饭 & BOBA TEA! 🇹🇼🍲
Ah, Taiwan, one of Singaporeans’ favourite tourist destinations~ Popular Taiwanese eatery Isshin Machi has just opened their latest outlet in the newest shopping mall in town - GR.ID! The shop is decorated in sync with the mall’s loud design with bright orange and blue. Each of their outlets follows a theme that is unique to Taiwan culture, and this one is no different. Their Selegie outlet is a Mandopop-themed shop with musical instruments and murals of popular Taiwanese artises. 🎸
Taiwanese cuisine is slightly different from Chinese cuisine, in which it is lighter on the palette and focuses more on the use of spices & herbs. But if we’re looking to take things up a notch, they provided us with housemade chilli oil, which is incredibly spicy! Not for the faint-hearted! 🥵 We had their 𝗛𝗮𝗸𝗸𝗮-𝘀𝘁𝘆𝗹𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝗥𝗶𝗰𝗲, which reminds us greatly of our last trip to Taipei right before the pandemic. The pearl rice is nicely cooked and absorbs the sauce for extra satisfaction as you bite a spoonful with the tender meat. 🍲 The 𝗧𝗮𝗶𝘄𝗮𝗻𝗲𝘀𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲𝗱 𝗕𝗲𝗲𝗳 𝗡𝗼𝗼𝗱𝗹𝗲𝘀 tasted amazing, with strong hints of star anise and juicy beef cuts. 🍜 Aside from food, they have 𝗕𝗼𝗯𝗮 𝗠𝗶𝗹𝗸 𝗧𝗲𝗮, an iconic beverage in Taiwan. 🧋
