Location: Taichung Fifth Market, Zheng Laopai Squid Thick Soup & Minsheng Road Tofu Pudding
Travel note: At noon, Senior ATTILA spontaneously asked me out for a meal, so we came to this old shop on Lequn Street. The two of us ordered two large plates of braised dishes with blanched vegetables, plus a mixed thick soup (squid, shrimp, meatball), and we were absolutely stuffed. Thanks to the senior for the treat. After eating, the senior led the way to an unnamed tofu pudding stall on Minsheng Road. It opens at 1:30 PM and quickly gets a long line. For NT$40, you can add all the toppings you want freely, and after adding toppings, you can add ice. The老板娘 even fills all the gaps with beans, as if afraid you won't be full. I added so much that I couldn't finish it and had to take it away. Just like how Ding Wang's staff fills up your spicy duck blood when packing, the老板娘 even asked if I wanted the ice topped up when packing, and she scooped a few spoons of syrup on top. I have to say, selling things like this is incredibly kind and rare. @@ By Morgan @2020.11.3
