Yung He Restaurant (Taiwanese), Bangkok

It's sometimes quite hard to find some nice Chinese provincial cuisine in Bangkok. This one Yung He Soy Bean shop is located close to the intersection of Chongnonsi (Narathiwa) Road (actually, it's very near to the BTS station Chongnonsi) and Silom Road. If you miss some Taiwanese food during your long vacation in BKK, try this one.

1. Sea weed - didn't expect this shop made this one really nice and in some way it's better than some of the restaurants I tried in Taiwan. 2. Siu Long Bao - this one is quite ok but it's a bit too thick.

3. Stir Fried Bitter Gourd Leaves - not that good. It's a bit too old; so it's hard to chew. 4. Pork Chop Rice - The pork chop is really disappointing. Supposed the pork chop should be crispy outside and juicy inside with the strong aroma of quick deep frying (酥香). However, it's like the pork chop is soaked in some warm oil and the coating is much too wet and even quite disgusting. However, the steamed rice is really nice. It's hard to find nice steamed rice in BKK.

5. Hot and Spicy Soup - quite ok. 6. Beef Noodle - the beef is quite tender and the soup base is also nice. The only thing I would comment is that the Chef should first brown some rock sugar to make it as a "Red Burn (紅燒)" base for the soup. Quite a number of shops don't brown the rock sugar for the soup base.
