Nearly 50-year-old Tainan banquet-style Taiwanese restaurant with electric lift chairs for elderly guests
A nearly 50-year-old Tainan restaurant serving banquet-style (bànzhuō) Taiwanese cuisine. Its signature stir-fried pork liver and crab sticky rice (hóngxún mǐgāo) have been recommended by Michelin multiple times. The restaurant is equipped with electric lift chairs to help elderly guests sit and stand. Portions are generous and ingredients are substantial, making it suitable for family gatherings with larger groups.
A Tainan spot recommended by locals for old-style banquet dishes and home-style specialties, which elders usually enjoy. The pork liver is tender with a light five-spice note, and the stir-fried eel has good wok heat with the eel cut into large pieces. Portions are generous, suiting shared meals for a group.

Praise centers on the stir-fried pork liver and stir-fried eel for their wok aroma and springy texture. The red crab sticky rice has nicely chewy rice, and the seasoning avoids the usual sweet style.
