One Day in Tainan: A Self-Guided Food Tour - Eater

"It’s not just about the way the chef uses a ladle to press rice against the hot wok, ensuring no grain is left unbrowned. This family-run eatery, located at the back of the art museum’s Building 1, goes one ingredient beyond conventional fried rice recipes. Whether tossed with beef, mutton, or lamb, the fried rice here comes imbued with the clean, menthol fragrance of white sesame oil which, because of its low smoke point, takes a deft hand to use in stir-fries. Here, the oil provides an almost lemony sharpness and nuttiness. Helpings come generously loaded with thinly sliced meat, and bits of bell pepper, grated carrot, egg, and shredded cabbage more than round out each serving — which is big enough to split three ways. Open: 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m., 4 to 8:30 p.m.; closed Sundays. Price: from $60 TWD ($2 USD) Directions: Take a few strides east to the nearest intersection, follow Kaishan Road north to the traffic circle, then go counter-clockwise around the circle to Qingnian Road. On the north side of the latter road, very near the circle, is an alley labeled Lane 8, Zhongshan Road. About 150 feet into the lane, you’ll find the next stop on your right." - Steven Crook
