A-Hsing Milkfish
阿興虱目魚
A classic milkfish spot favored by locals, famous for its pan-fried milkfish belly paired with lard and garlic rice, now relocated to a new address.
A North District institution and multi-year Bib Gourmand selectee, this eatery has relocated from No. 252 to a corner spot at No. 311 Wenxian Road. The new location is more spacious, brighter, and air-conditioned, making older address listings obsolete. The vast majority of customers order the pan-fried milkfish belly paired with garlic rice, which is tossed with garlic fried in lard for a rich aroma. Milkfish intestines are limited and sell out early; they also offer milkfish belly soup, fish skin soup, and oyster soup. Garlic rice is about NT$50, fried milkfish belly is about NT$130, and the average spend is around NT$200. Take Bus 3 from Tainan Station (North Station) to Wenxian Road Stop, and it is about a one-minute walk.
