老天祿

It's a time-honored brand. The quail eggs are delicious, as are the duck gizzards and chicken gizzards. The duck intestines are well-prepared, the duck wings are also well-prepared, the feathers are very clean, and the price is not expensive.

This is a very popular braised food shop in Taiwan, specializing in selling duck tongues, duck livers, duck hearts, duck gizzards, duck wings, etc. The line of people waiting to buy keeps increasing. Since we live in Ximending, we stopped by here to take a look at the duck tongues. The clerk reminded us that we can order first and pick up later to avoid too many people lining up or running out of stock that day, so we ordered first. When we came to pick up the goods that day, there were really many people lining up at the door!

The largest braised food shop in Ximending, but I think the taste is just so-so, the braised food is a bit too sweet. I recommend the braised tofu, which tastes good. The duck is not so fresh, but the goose intestines taste good.

This Lao Tianlu on Wuchang Street is the earliest one in Ximending. It is said to be the only authentic one with no branches. Other Lao Tianlu are irrelevant. Business is very good. There is a long queue in front of the door. When the queue comes, there are people at the counter to take orders from customers one by one, and finally go to the back to pay. Duck wings, duck heads, duck necks, chicken and duck gizzards, chicken feet, duck feet, crispy intestines, dried tofu, etc. are all very tasty, and each ingredient retains its own characteristics, which is well-deserved.

The authentic Lao Tian Lu braised food with a fragrance of over 50 years: this is a long-established Hong Kong-style braised food shop on Zhonghua Road. Go in from the intersection of Zhonghua Road and Wuchang Street and walk straight ahead to find the authentic Lao Tian Lu braised food. For those who want to go shopping, Ximending should be a good place to visit; however, this area is a pedestrian zone on weekends, so it is recommended to take public transportation for convenience. Because Hong Kong's famous superstar Andy Lau and the legendary singer Eason Chan both like the braised food in this shop very much, it has become a famous shop that Hong Kong and mainland people must buy from. The most signature dish must be the duck tongue highly recommended by Andy Lau; duck tongue (small) is NT$140, and a large one of 100 grams is NT$200. The marinated food is mainly made with the ancient method of using Chinese medicine and soy sauce as the marinade. The taste is relatively traditional and is highly recommended to everyone.

Ximending is full of delicious food, but Lao Tian Lu Braised Food is a must-try. I'd seen travel guides on Ctrip mention it so many times, and it was so delicious I was itching to try it. While strolling through the pedestrian zone, I discovered there are two Lao Tian Lu Braised Food locations. To avoid regrets, I bought some from both and found the flavors were quite different, but not too different. I tried the braised duck wings, braised duck hearts, and braised duck intestines, and they were all delicious. I bought some loose and ate them all on the way, leaving a lasting impression. They also offer gift packaging, so I took some home to savor.

The braised food at Lao Tianlu is particularly delicious. It is a typical Taiwanese snack bar. The more distinctive ones are duck gizzards and mung bean cakes, which taste very good, especially the mung bean cakes, which melt in your mouth. The braised pig's trotters and sweet and sour food are also very delicious. I recommend giving them a try.
