Do It True (Xinyi)

"The menu at this 60-plus-year-old restaurant offers variations of dishes that the owner’s great uncle once cooked for Empress Cixi of Qing Dynasty. Crispy and juicy, the deep-fried pork balls made with hind leg cuts are an absolute must-try. Pork and cabbage pickle casserole, grouper fillet in distiller’s grain sauce, and giant inch-thick scallion pancakes are also recommended. It’s located on a tree-lined boulevard and comes with large windows and walnut wood furniture." - Michelin Inspector

Authentic traditional dishes that are seasoned well and not overly heavy. Would definitely return for more! Love their stir fried vegetables.

Came here for lunch. The star dish is a sesame seed bun that you stuff with braised pork. The bun was warm and wheaty. Choose fatty bits of pork for the moist juicy bite. We ordered smoked chicken which was served cold and some smattering of other dishes. This is a Michelin bib gourmand but I wasn't super impressed. The locals love it though. It was full of old people enjoying themselves!

We couldn’t have the pickled cabbage and pork hotpot with their traditional copper pot as we were arranged to sit in the basement, but their hotpot was tasty, we couldn’t taste the umami until the hotpot was cooked for 20 mins. We like their 合菜代帽 mixed vegetables covered with eggs, other dishes were all not bad.

There are english, japanese menu you can ask. Fried rice is good choice here and other side dishes were good. Me and my friend didn't finish the rice because it was a little more . Price is a bit higher than other stores.

This restaurant’s signature dishes are the fried pork balls and the pork. We didn’t make a reservation.We went there at 5 pm. It has limited time, only an hour for 2. No one came to the table order for us until we asked, that was around 15 mins past since we sat down. We ordered some snacks which they already made, but still waited for another 20 mins to have all of food we ordered on the table. The food such as pork balls and the pancake roll weren’t hot.Tasted like they cooked for a while. *Fried pork balls NT$280 (S) Crunchy, dry and cold. Quite disappointed with them. I think IKEA does meat balls better. *Sliced pork NT$280 (S) The pork was very tender and good, especially eat with the bun and the special sauce. Seemd we got the fattest part compare with other tables. *Pancake roll NT$110/ 2pc It tasted like fried dumplings but bigger. *Sesame bun NT$40/ 1pc Better eat with the sliced pork. *Red jujube cake NT$? It tasted like brown sugar cake but harder, more like a pound cake.

Recommended! We loved everything from start to finish! Everything was served quite fast and the dishes were quite tasty with a nice kick!

This place is known for their Beijing cuisine and sour cabbage hot pot. It’s simple and so tasty. Delicious comfort food, especially in winter. You can tell that years of experience have gone into the recipes and making of each dish.

Amazing! I ordered the shredded pork on cabbage (so good), beef and green onions (probably my favorite.. it has a slight char burned taste), the seafood dumplings, the side of carrot and garlic, and the sweet and sour soup. See pictures - they're very obvious what is what. Everything (minus the sweet and sour soup) was delicious.. actually it was probably the best Chinese food I've ever had. There was definitely a language barrier, because I ordered 2 things, and the server kept "asking anything else"? I was actually ordering the small portion size, and I was asking "am I ordering too much food?" She didn't understand, but the answer was: yes, I over-ordered way too much food. But no surprise, I finished almost everything (except the soup). It's sooo good. Wish I could have tried the scallion pancakes (you have to order that 3 days in advance.. seriously, no joke - look at the note on my menu pic) Hilarious they have a pic of the staff hugging president George Bush Sr from 1994 lol
