A breakfast shop in the lanes beside Xingtian Temple, known for soft egg crepes made from a poured batter in the southern Taiwan style, with a long list of fillings to choose from. Everything is cooked to order and it closes at 14:00, so it suits a solo breakfast before or after the temple. It is on the 2026 MICHELIN Bib Gourmand list.

How to order, step by step
- Go before 14:00, when it closes for the day
- Order at the counter. Choose a soft egg crepe and its filling, or a rice ball or the black sugar bun burger
- Add a drink if you like and pay in cash
- If you eat in, check the sign for a per-person minimum, which was about NT$150 in 2026
- Expect a short wait, because each item is cooked to order
What to order solo: One soft egg crepe with the filling of your choice and a drink makes a full breakfast. The other house specialty is the black sugar steamed-bun burger (饅力堡). Check the posted prices.
Best time to go alone: A weekday morning. Food is cooked to order, so waits get longer when it is busy, and it closes at 14:00.
