We spent the whole day biking in Hsinchu Coastal Trail and Hsinchu Grasslands under 38C scorching summer heat. We had some issues at the TRA station that we were left with 30-40mins for dinner. When we arrived in the restaurant, we received a very lively welcome from the owner and a promise that they'll do they best to prepare our meals real quick which they did! We had a good meal (pizza, burger and salad) and made it in time for our train to Taipei. I appreciate the reliable service :)

I stayed at Ambassador Hotel for business purpose, found this local Taiwanese cuisine restaurant on the way walking to Big City Shopping mall. Just located beside Ambassador Hotel HsinChu. The environment is great, having a good time with my colleagues, The foods they served tasted great too, they served in small portion, just right enough for us to taste few dishes, but not over full. Definitely will come back again.

只要來新竹市,有空的話一定會順道過去買個小份的來解解饞。香腸罐的絞肉很紮實,有肥肉但不會油。米腸焦香入口的話口感很棒。旁邊的小黃瓜、泡菜、蒜頭搭配一起吃有畫龍點睛的作用。

城隍廟外圍的潤餅店,招牌上寫著1906年就開始營業,所以這間也是百年老店。潤餅的配料大同小異,比較特別的是這裡沒有豬肉絲而是肉鬆。

Liu Jia Rice With Minced Pork Sauce

Reviewed By Vigswaminathan

This stall located within the Cheng Huang temple grounds. Find any of the entrances of Cheng Huang temple and it will lead you into the Temple's courtyard. Within the courtyard are many stalls. This stall is one of them. It is located at the corner nearest to the temple's alter. All the signs are in Chinese characters. So, if you want to order, best is to point to the array of meats; tofu and other braised stuff at the counter. We ordered, the mince meat braised rise with a slab of braised pork belly and tofu. The pork belly is one of the best I have eaten - very tender. The chilli and other condiments available at the counter go well with the food.

Miao Kou Duck Rice

Reviewed By DavidASU

This is the best duck restaurant I ever been. It is a smoked duck and the business is so good that we still need to wait and share a table around 2 pm. The most famous dish is the duck meat rice. We had several dishes (oyster omelette and few other Taiwanese food) in nearby famous "Temple" place. Thus we only tried the boneless duck meat. Additionally, I had one to go because it is my mom's favorite.

We were invited to this restaurant for dinner. Were pleasantly surprised by the beef noodles we had. This is definitely the best beef noodle soup I have ever had! Must go and eat! However, prepare to wait. It is always a line!

Din Tai Fung

Reviewed By Sheila514

I love eating at Din Tai Fung, regardless of where the shop is located. This one is really nice in that on weekdays, you could actually make reservations for lunchtime! No need to wait in line! The service is really swift and friendly.I believe that when eating here, the more the merrier! The menus are in English, but to order, they give you a checklist to tick off that is only in Chinese! Luckily there are numbers you could match, but don't be surprised if certain numbers are listed, because they only serve the veggies when they are in season.My favorite xialonbaos were the truffle and 絲瓜 (Chinese okra). I also really enjoyed the mini sesame buns. The fun part of eating here with friends is the ability to order a bunch of dishes and try everything! It's all tasty! I think the quality is very similar across the board at all of its chain restaurants. This meal was just as good as when I first discovered Ding Tai Fung back in Seattle and Bellevue, WA.
