Rice with Stewed Pork: You can Hardly Resist it

Taiwan is known as “The Kingdom of Cuisine”. Not only is it delicious, but Taiwanese food also has various kinds of dishes. You can hardly count them.



There is a mouthwatering dish called “rice with stewed pork” (滷肉飯). In the old days, when people didn’t have much money, they used to make it every day. All you need is stewed pork, soy sauce and of course, rice.



Nowadays, it’s one of the most popular dishes in Taiwan. Strolling down the street, you can see restaurants selling it everywhere. You can hardly resist its tempting smell. The taste of stewed pork and soy sauce makes it the perfect combination. You will never forget it for the rest of your life once you taste it.



And don’t worry! This delicious food doesn’t cost much. In fact, it’s so cheap that it’s affordable to everyone. This is also one of the reasons why it’s so popular in Taiwan.



In my opinion, “rice with stewed pork” is what I think could best represent Taiwanese culture because of its remarkable taste and cheap cost. It is one great choice for those who want to treat themselves but don’t want to spend much.

  1. Once there was a wanted criminal who had escaped to another country. He missed the taste of "rice with stewed pork" for years. So he came back for the dish one day...and caught by the police. Before putting him to jail, the kind police let him have one bowl of "rice with stewed pork".
