世界上所有的美食再怎麼好吃也比不上家鄉的口味,而最好吃的家鄉菜都是來自世代的傳承!乍聽之下,今年六月開幕的千金廚似乎很現代感,殊不知它代表著超過三十年的經驗和上一代延續下來的好手藝!有別於一般的台式海產店,千金廚強調少油、少鹽的健康台菜,尤其是深海海鮮料理更是不容錯過!

第一次到千金廚,如果點菜時拿不定主意,直接從人氣商品下手準沒錯!香烤鹹豬肉﹙小280元;大420元﹚有媽媽的愛心和獨門的醃肉功夫,沾點特調的工研白醋,這是一道絕佳的下酒菜!鹹酥龍珠﹙小280元;大420元﹚是經過油炸至香脆的透抽嘴巴肉,搭配紅辣椒一起吃更帶勁!為了更好的口感採用寬粉絲的鮮蝦粉絲煲﹙480元﹚讓饕客除了炒飯之外多一種選擇。三杯中卷﹙小480元;大680元﹚的花枝是經過特別挑選,厚度高達一公分,甜、脆、鮮是這道菜的特色,吃過之後回味無窮!千金廚的每道菜份量十足,記得多找幾個朋友一起來用餐才能盡興!

Having the experience of tasting worldly gourmet is a luxury but it can never curb my craving for hometown delicacy! And I must confess that the best of hometown flavors always come from culinary craft passed down from generations. Judging from the first glance Qian-Jin Kitchen may seem like a chic New York style restaurant, how little I know that it stands for more than three decades of experiences and gourmet expertise from the last generation. Unlike most Taiwanese style seafood restaurant Qian-Jin Kitchen emphasizes on healthy cuisine that has less fat and little salt. All the dishes made of deep sea fish are the must-haves!

If you’re dining at Qian-Jin Kitchen for the first time and you’re torn between seafood and poultry, just order the dishes that are marked with “Most popular demand!” Roasted salty sliced pork (small 280NT; large 420NT) comes from a homemade recipe and a unique tedious process to cure meat. With a dip in the white vinegar this is a perfect dish to go with a jug of cold beer. Fried squid mouth meat ﹙small 280NT; large 420NT﹚may seem odd at first but it will crunch in your mouth. For some extra red-hot flavor just pair it with some red chili peppers to add more kicks to it! Shrimp vermicelli clay pot (480NT) is an alternative choice for those who are not keen on ordering fried rice. Cuttlefish in brown sauce﹙small 480NT; large 680NT﹚is fresh, sweet and crisp. The cuttlefish is particularly thick, as much as 1 centimeter and that’s very rare in any seafood restaurant in town.

Be sure to bring a group of friends to Qian-Jin Kitchen because the portion is more sufficient to serve the whole family and then some!
