Small bowls of rice cooked in pork-head broth, about NT$10 each, at this Yanshui shop. Side dishes such as braised pork belly and grilled sausage are picked from the counter.
Outside the city, so it isn't included in the day planner. It's a stop on Yanshui Noodles and Xuejia Milkfish, which explains how to get there.
What to order
豬頭飯
Pig-head rice
Long-grain rice cooked in stock made from a whole pig's head, so each grain stays separate and smells of pork fat. Pick sides such as braised pork belly, squid and sausage from the counter.
