Nostalgic Bento Bliss
#winhkflight
The traditional iron-boxed nostalgic bento features spare ribs accompanied by simple side dishes. If you opt for dining in, you'll enjoy a complimentary refillable bamboo shoots soup, permeating the entire space with its smell. (Most of tourist might not be used to it) The pork chop and drumstick bento is exceptionally tasty. We also tried another pork rib bento, with the meat seasoned generously and marinated deliciously. Although it's a bit pricier compared to neighboring stores, the iron box adds a retro flair to the experience. While the ribs are thick but tend to be dry, the rice portions are modest, and the side dishes are satisfactory.
However, the low tables and closely arranged stools leave little room for maneuverability. The chairs are particularly low, making it challenging for elderly individuals to stand up after their meal. Additionally, during peak hours, sharing tables becomes necessary due to limited space.

The hidden destination among the clouds
Address - Fenqihu Old Street, 604, Chiayi County, Zhuqi Township, 24
Getting There - Recommended to take train from Chiayi or by self driving
Attractions - Train, train railway, old food & shopping street
Food & Restaurants - Train bento lunch box, fried donut
Personal experience - The 'Jiufen' of the South. Surrounded by misty clouds atop a range of grandeur mountains, I had a good time taking in the scenes of the scenery, the train and it's picturesque railway. Even though the train bento lunch box is quite a touristy trap, the food there is worth every cent and honestly, it is not even quite that expensive at TWD 190 for the big set which includes pork and chicken. After having a meal, walk around the old street to digest your stomach and remember to always have a fried donut if you see it. Calories well spent.
