XIMEN-BIEN DANG- BENTO BOX

So I was in Ximen today. This is one of my favorite shopping area. When I used to run with Westmill, I spent alot of time there. This lil hole in the wall has been there for the last 30 yrs, and the son just took over. They sell a $3.00 USD BENTO, that you can pick, either fish, pork chop, chicken, and pork belly meat. It comes with some side garnish of nappa cabbage, an "tea egg", and some salted veggies. This is a pure fusion of the Northern Chinese /Taiwanese/Japanese. The Japanese has ruled the majority of the island prior to the Kuomingtang rule, this had given the Island a different flavor......
