If you frequently visited the Taichung Tax Bureau in the afternoon, you'd likely be familiar with this Sausage Uncle. Every day around 1 PM, he would ride his tricycle, fully loaded with ingredients, to set up his stall. He had been doing this for over 30 years. Business was incredibly good; if you went too late, everything would be sold out!
Sadly, this is now a disappeared shop, living only in our nostalgic memories.
Eating here meant standing right in front of the stall. The Uncle would lay a plastic bag on the glass display case and scoop out chili sauce, garlic soy paste, and pickled mustard greens for you. You just pointed to what you wanted, and he prepped it and placed it on your plastic bag. You could ask for unlimited refills of the condiments; I absolutely loved his pickled mustard greens!
He offered a wide variety of traditional snacks: chicken rolls, sausages, chicken hearts, livers, gizzards, tails, sticky rice sausages, tempura, dried tofu, kelp, taro cakes, and more. Full of nostalgic flavors!
