Still on Thu 8 Nov 2018 Day 3 in Taipei- 5.40 pm - I wanted to eat Oyster Omelette without starchy bits in them and there is an eatery within walking distance (500 m) from the hotel that cooks the oyster omelette this way so this is another must-eat while I am in Taipei.
Close up view - Confirmed no starchy gooey bits in this omelette. Very tasty. Price is TWD 100 (about MYR 15) so I would say that the price is reasonable.
I think these are deep fried oyster spring rolls.
Close up view. We ordered two rolls at TWD 50 (about MYR 7.50) per roll.
We ordered two dishes only because there were only two of us because two chose to still rest in the hotel room.
蚵仔之家 (literal translation is Oyster House). 外傘頂洲 蚵仔之家民生東路店 (Wài sǎn dǐng zhōu hézǐ zhī jiā mínshēng dōnglù diàn - literal translation -
Outer Umbrella Ting Chau Oyster House Minsheng East Road Branch)
Address:
No. 33, Section 2, Minsheng East Road, Zhongshan District, Taipei City, Taiwan 10491
The shop entrance looks very traditional.
Not many people dining there yet because it was just 6 pm, not dinner time.
*** Wednesday 8 July 2020 d113 ***
1 pm - not my lunch of instant noodles with the previous day duck ginger dish bought from Aunty Melon, SS2, PJ and added bok choy. My portion was kept aside for my dinner as I just ate brunch at 12 noon of 1 slice gardenia whole meal bread, 2 slices rainbow sprouted grains bread and one fried egg so on this day, I ate two meals only with a satsuma.
6.30 pm, I ate my portion of lunch for dinner - instant noodles, ginger duck and bok choy.
Seems like all these street snack shop is able to survive in Taiwan but if in M'sia sure closed shop after a few months.
ReplyDeleteWhy close shop? This shop sells noodles and other main dishes too. You consider oyster omelette as snacks?
Deleteyeapz...oyster omelette is more of like street snack than a proper meal.
Deleteif got sell other dishes, then can survive la...so what other main dishes do they have? can't read Chinese so dunno what's in the order chit.
DeleteOyster omelette is like usual omelettes. So do you consider all omelettes as snacks and not dishes that you order from restaurants to eat with rice?
DeleteThey serve oysters, seafood, prawns noodles or congee or rice and they have stirfry dishes like salad prawns, vegetables, fish dishes amongst others.
DeleteWe never order oyster omelette as dish.
DeleteI mean order other types of omelette as a dish amongst other dishes to eat with rice.
Deletefuyong omelette got la...
Deletemeanwhile oyster omelette is something that i normally order from CKT or Char Koay Kak stalls in kopitiam or nite market to be eaten as snack (like popiah, lorbak sort of).
Ok, I get how you see it cos normal shops will only have the usual omelette and not oyster omelette so oyster omelette is associated as snack since locally it is only served by limited places. Where do you get oyster omelette in KL? Other than pavilion, I don't know where to buy them in KL.
DeleteIf u knw where Sen Heng electrical shop in SP, at nite the corner kopitiam nearby it got a stall selling oyster omelette with ckk/ckt. Not sure about these days if still there o not.
DeleteYes I know that coffee shop. Long time didn't eat there at night. If I happen to be out at night around that area, will drop by to see if they are still there.
DeleteNever tried deep fried oyster spring rolls before. Must be yummy. :)
ReplyDeleteTaste fine.
DeleteOr chian!!! We don't get that here - once, yes, not anymore. I wish I could get to enjoy that sometime soon. Spring roll looks good too.
ReplyDeleteHere in kl, we also don't see or chian that common. In pavilion food court, the one has lots of gooey starch. Penang has more and the gooey stuffs in Penang or chian sometimes is not that much. I also wish here has more places with or chian.
DeleteOyster omelette. Yum yum. Our Kuching is more of the thin crispy oyster pancake. We do have oyster omelette but I prefer the drier vesion, ie pancake.
ReplyDeleteYes, yums! Yums! Crispy version I have eaten in putien restaurant.
DeleteWhen I see oyster omelette, I think of Penang or Sitiawan. These are 2 places where we usually go for oyster omelette. Stewed duck with noodles sounds delicious.
ReplyDeletePenang yes but I have not been to sitiawan. Yes duck ginger is tasty but with the duck skin is a bit oily.
DeleteContrary to you, i love the oily and starchy parts in or chian. Why you didnt like the starchy parts?
ReplyDeleteCos I want to eat oysters and eggs and not the starchy parts.
DeleteThe fried oysters look fresh... and I like the duck noodles! so yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis shop specialised in oysters so should be fresh. Yes, the duck noodles are yummy!
DeleteOyster must be common there. They seem to have various dishes using oyster compared to here in Malaysia.
ReplyDeleteYes, oysters are one of their main products so there are oysters Mee suah stalls everywhere in Taiwan.
