It's really affordable, a serving of fish balls costs only about ten yuan, and the location is also convenient, near the train station, many people choose to come here for breakfast or supper. As for fish balls, I personally recommend squid fish balls!
[Overview] There are two fish ball shops with a lot of people queuing in Jiufen Old Street, one is "Fish Ball Bozai" and the other is "Zhangji Traditional Fish Ball". Because we saw Zhangji first when we walked in the old street, and we had to eat a lot of snacks along the way, so we chose to eat fish balls in Jiufen at Zhangji. There are many styles of fish balls, and we only picked the two most signature ones to try. I feel that they are not very special balls, but they are very authentic and have enough ingredients. [Geographic location and transportation] Located at No. 25, Jishan Street, Ruifang District, New Taipei City. Take the bus and get off at Jiufen Old Street Station, walk forward next to 7-11 and enter Jiufen Old Street. The whole street is full of snack shops. Jiufen Old Street is not long, and it is not difficult to find it by walking in and following the house number. The street is a pedestrian street except for the garbage truck passing by at night. There are super many people and it is quite crowded. [Environment] Because it is a super popular spot in Jiufen and it is a snack shop, the location in the store is relatively crowded, and you have to share a table. However, since the tables are turned over very quickly, it is not inconvenient. [Dishes and taste] We ordered a bowl of squid balls, which has 3 balls, and you can eat the meat of the squid. A bowl of Fuzhou balls, which has 2 super large balls. It turns out that Fuzhou balls are stuffed balls, with fish balls on the outside and meatballs on the inside, and there is soup. Be careful of bursting. The fish ball soup is delicious, with real ingredients! The dry noodles was an unexpected discovery, very delicious. I only ordered 1 bowl at first, but later I ordered another bowl because it was so delicious. It is just a simple braised pork mixed with noodles, but it tastes very good. The fried tofu is more ordinary, which is our fried tofu. [Price] Squid balls 45 Taiwan dollars/bowl, Fuzhou balls 45 Taiwan dollars/bowl, dry noodles 35 Taiwan dollars/bowl, fried tofu 25 Taiwan dollars/portion. [Service] Many people lined up to wait for a seat at Zhangji. Although there were many people, it didn't take long to get a seat because it was a snack bar, and everyone changed tables very quickly. We put the disposable bowls back into the trash can in the store after eating.
Located on Jiufen Old Street, I decided to try it because it ranked well on Dianping.com, and I had lunch there. The three of us ordered a plate of drunken chicken, a plate of jellyfish, a mixed fish ball soup, a mixed fish ball noodle, and a bowl of braised pork rice. The restaurant was packed with people, business was good and a little crowded, and the dishes were served quickly. There were three different kinds of fish balls in the fish ball soup, all of which were very chewy and tasted good, especially the Fuzhou fish balls, which had stuffing that would burst, and there was a special warning in the restaurant. Overall, I was quite satisfied.
The fish balls are very fragrant, and you can't taste too much starch in them. They are all made of fish meat. There are about five or six in a serving, and the fish balls are made of different types of fish. The business is pretty good, with many people in the morning and evening.
