Lip-smashing Donburi @Just Café
Finally back to the food section of my trip to Tainan! I have previously told you that our first meal after arriving in Tainan was at Just Café at Just Sleep Tainan Hushan. Today I will give you a detailed introduction.
The main reason for our visit this time is to taste the limited-time Japanese rice bowl. This Japanese set meal has been given a very witty name, "Lip-Lip-Desire Rice Bowl", which is very tempting and really makes us want to try it, haha.
We enjoyed a very rich Japanese lunch in this spacious and comfortable environment under the warm sunshine on this beautiful afternoon.
In such warm weather, of course you have to drink a cup of the signature Jingbu tea. Jingying Tainan carefully selects tea leaves from the top of Dongding Mountain in Lugu, Nantou to prepare this dish. I really like its mellow and non-sweet refreshing feeling and taste. It gave me a lot of energy on this trip to Taiwan.
Before tasting the delicious meal, let’s enjoy some light meals! I first tried the Fucheng stinky tofu gua bao, which I fell in love with as soon as I saw it, for TWD $260. It contained two large gua bao, crispy fried sweet potato strips and pickled vegetables.
The crispy and non-greasy Gua Bao is sandwiched with fresh lettuce and my favorite stinky tofu. It has a very good texture when you take a bite, and the tempting aroma lingers in your mouth, which is really wonderful.
There is also super fresh sea urchin and snow crab Benedict eggs TWD$380, and a variation of the confinement meal, sesame oil pancake Benedict eggs TWD$380. Both are also served with crispy fried sweet potato fries and fresh salad, which is extremely rich! But I didn't try them because I had to save room for the rice bowl.
I look forward to the super eye-catching Japanese rice bowl making its grand debut! We ordered three dishes to share today, and we started with the shrimp and egg rice bowl for TWD$498.
The meal comes with three appetizers! These include plum roselle pickle, refreshing jellyfish and crispy radish. I love the plum roselle pickle because it is super appetizing and sour.
There is also a large portion of refreshing and fresh salad, which feels very healthy and you can finish one bowl without feeling guilty.
The set meal also comes with a bowl of hot and spicy soy milk miso soup, which has a milky white color and tastes sweet and delicious.
In addition to the delicious soup, there is also the traditional winter melon lemon drink, which is a very authentic drink and most importantly, it tastes very sweet and delicious.
The appetizers alone are so rich, and I believe the rice bowl must be very good too! This fried shrimp and double roe rice bowl is topped with plenty of crab roe and salmon roe and paired with fresh prawns. It is very attractive in appearance, taste and texture. It is so delicious that you will burst into laughter after eating it.
And this premium three-fresh fisherman's rice bowl is also very delicious! The rice is filled with sweet sea urchin, plump Hiroshima oysters, caviar, salmon roe and snow crab meat. Every bite is as delicious as being immersed in the ocean.
Finally, there is a specially selected Iberian pork rice bowl that is perfect for carnivores! The Iberian pork is full of fragrance and tender meat, and it is even more fragrant when paired with the special barbecue sauce. The hot spring egg makes the pork smoother and more delicious.
If you visit Tainan, you might consider staying at Just Sleep Tainan Hushan, so you can try this limited-time delicious bowl.
