Crayon Shin-chan themed new branch

On a weekday evening, I went shopping with my wife in Shatin Town Plaza. When passing by Wai Wah Centre, I found that a new branch of Niu Da Ren had opened. There were not many people queuing up. After strolling around the store, we were able to get a seat. 😎 Location (8/10): Located in Wai Wah Centre next to New Town Plaza in Shatin, about 9 minutes walk from Exit A4 of Shatin MTR Station, and only about 5 minutes from the underground bus terminal👏 Environment (9/10): There are a lot of Crayon Shin-chan stickers in the store, which are very cute and attractive. The store is spacious and the seats are comfortable. Service (9/10): Niu Da Ren uses QR code scanning to place orders, and there is also a self-service area with sauces, hot drinks, frozen drinks, pasta and hot pot ingredients. The food is served quickly after placing the order. In addition, the restaurant provides wet wipes and mask bags 💕 Food (9/10): Niu Da Ren has a lot of food options. The more expensive the set meal, the higher the quality. Even if you choose the cheaper ones, the ingredients in the self-service area are quite rich, and you can eat and drink as much as you want👌 👍Beef Master 120-minute all-you-can-eat meal - Australian premium wagyu beef ~ $298/person Every time I think about it, I always choose the most expensive set meal, which comes with two extra juicy Australian M9 beef balls per person. Let me briefly introduce the food selection: 🥢Soup Base There are 10 choices including Niu Daren's Secret Spicy Hot Pot, Niu Daren's Braised Beef Hot Pot, Taiwan Pineapple Chicken Hot Pot, Medicinal Burdock Hot Pot, Taiwan Strong Flavor Tomato Hot Pot, Military Village White Jade Pickled Cabbage Hot Pot, Taichung Garlic Chicken Hot Pot, Emperor's Food Tonic Ginger Duck Hot Pot, Grandma's Health Soup Hot Pot and Health Vegetarian Hot Pot. This time we chose Taichung Garlic Chicken Hot Pot, which has a strong garlic flavor and the chicken is fresh 😆 🥢All-you-can-eat premium wagyu beef There are five choices: Australian Wagyu M5 beef shoulder roll, Angus beef short ribs, hand-cut tenderloin, Angus beef cubes and pork marinated slices. Among them, the Australian Wagyu M5 beef shoulder roll is the most tender and has the most beautiful fat, while the hand-cut Fengmen fillet has a more beefy flavor🥰 🥢All-you-can-eat premium American Angus beef Nine choices, including Angers Premium Beef Shank, US Prime Shoulder Loin, Spanish Pork Belly Slices, Taiwanese Sea Bass Slices, Crab Roe and Cuttlefish Paste, Scallop and Fresh Fish Paste, Niu Ma’s Secret Braised Beef Tendon, Niu Ma’s Secret Braised Beef Tripe and Octopus Pearl Paste. Angster Select Beef Shank is the most tender beef after M5 Beef Shoulder Roll. In addition, we recommend two secret marinated foods, which are both fragrant and smooth😍 🥢All-you-can-eat selected tender beef There are 4 types of dishes, including upper belly beef belly, Spanish pork belly slices, New Zealand lamb rolls and Huadiao wine chicken. To be honest, you don’t even need to choose the more expensive set meal 😉 🥢Pulp There are 5 types in total, including hand-beaten swordfish paste, Taiwanese seafood paste, Penghu squid paste, real beef paste and smooth pork paste. I am just average at Taiwanese pastes, and the only one I would recommend is the hand-beaten swordfish paste with a very fragrant fish flavor😃 🥢 Dumplings There are Fujian bird dumplings, Taiwanese egg dumplings, Taiwanese shrimp dumplings, cabbage dumplings, chive dumplings, melon chicken dumplings and Hualien flatbreads. Of course, you have to try the Fujian Yanjiao and Hualien flatbreads, which have a more special taste, and the melon chicken dumplings are also very good 😄 🥢Fried food Including Fengyuan crispy pork ribs, fried luncheon meat, Guima fried dough sticks and crispy fried fish skin. The ghost fried dough sticks from the Shatin branch are very crispy and excellent, and the fried luncheon meat is very thick and tastes great 😘 🥢Seafood There are sweet and fresh shrimps, real Taiwan snapper fillets, crispy grass carp fillets, crispy grass carp belly, fresh whitebait and Shunde dace balls, but the real Taiwan snapper fillets were sold out again, maybe they are very delicious. I personally must choose shrimps and whitebait, they are fresh and sweet☺️ 🥢Snacks Including Shilin fried chicken, real pork sausages, fish-flavored preserved egg tofu, plum crispy potato and sweet and sour tempura. The tender and delicious fish-flavored preserved egg tofu is my favorite, followed by the fragrant real pig sausages 😜 🥢Vegetables Water lotus is the only option for ordering, it is refreshing and sweet, other vegetables need to be picked up at the self-service area 😆 🥢Others There are 7 types in total, including Shilin Pig Blood Cake, Private Duck Blood, Shanshui Smooth Tofu, Handmade Big Black Wheel, Handmade Sichuan Meatballs, Beauty Fish Maw and Niu Ma’s Secret Braised Large Intestine. The slightly spicy duck blood is definitely the first choice, and the fragrant secret braised large intestine is also a good choice😙 🥢Special Drink The choices include winter melon tea, black plum juice, kumquat coconut, sour plum juice and purple taro cream milk which costs an extra $25 per cup. Winter melon tea is definitely the best choice. Although purple taro cream milk is also very attractive, I believe not many people will pay extra 😅 🥢Alcoholic Beverages For alcoholic drinks, there are 1664 draft beer (+$58), Asahi draft beer (+$48), 18+ winter melon tea (+$38), Flowing Water Flowers (+$48), Pingtung millet brew (+$188) and Pingtung black rice brew (+$188). I only tried the refreshing and easy-to-drink Flowing Water Flowers, so I won’t say much about it. 🥢Food for a fee Chargeable food items include Australian Wagyu Beef Meatballs (3 pieces) (+$58), American Beef Short Ribs - Angus (+$148), Australian Wagyu A5 Beef Shoulder Roll (+$198), Angus Beef Bites (+$198) and Hand-cut Beef Fillet (+$198). If you want to pay extra, why not choose the most expensive set meal from the beginning, and you can eat as much as you want🤩 🥢Self-collection area The self-service area has my favorite braised pork rice, Hsinchu hot rice noodles, shredded chicken noodles and udon, as well as ring bells, various vegetables, dumplings and meatballs. The beverage cabinet has several homemade refrigerated teas, various canned and paper-wrapped drinks, and hot drinks such as longan and red date tea, sugar-free black tea and hot water. The choices are very rich and sufficient🥳 🥢Desserts When checking out, the waiter will give customers a dessert paper, including Taichung grass jelly, Swiss chocolate or strawberry flavored Movenpick ice cream and limited-time ice cream. The limited-time ice cream during the day is mango cream flavored Haagen-Dazs ice cream, of course you can't miss it 😛 In summary, Niu Da Ren Shatin store is conveniently located, has good service, and has good food quality and a wide selection. Plus, there are cute Crayon Shin-chan stickers everywhere, which instantly makes the whole store full of life and has the magic that makes people want to visit again🙏 🌺Niu Da Ren Taiwanese Hot Pot All You Can Eat 🌺Address: Shop 9A-9B, 2/F, Wai Wah Centre, 11-17 Shatin Main Street, Shatin #foodie #summerfoodierecommendations
