I seriously don't understand why the low score! In fact, a part of me wants to keep it a low score so that I can hide this Taiwanese breakfast gem for myself...
Both my mom and I loved the breakfast here, especially their soy milk! Coming from someone who grew up in Taiwan and another who basically visit Taiwan every year of her life, this means A LOT!
We ordered two ginger soy milk (HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND), the egg cake with pork floss, the baked turnip cake and sweet pan cake!
I always eat egg cake (it sounds weird, but trust me..it is just because of the translation..) when I am in Taiwan since it is my favorite breakfast food. There is a famous egg cake place in Tustin, CA that has good rating on Yelp..but it was a big disappointment for me..flavorless and expensive..
The egg cake here is crunchy, fresh, flavorful with fillings and under $6 !?!? Such a steal!
The soy milk..mmmmm...warm, the perfect amount of sweetness..brings me back to the busy morning streets in Taiwan..AND a big bowl UNDER $3 ?!?!
Too bad I live in OC..or else I know where I will get my breakfast every day from now on...
The four stars are because -
We grabbed some of the pastry that was around the counter and tbh those weren't that great..
This store is small, a typical mom and pop store, so the service was a bit slower even though there weren't many people around (we came on a Saturday morning at around 10 am).
Either way, give this authentic Taiwanese breakfast place a try if you like Taiwanese breakfast and you wouldn't regret it!
