another favorite.
da wan bbQ. its a small restaurant, with mostly bar seating.
there are tons of bbQ restaraunts all over da an district in taipei, but to me, what makes da wasn special, is their cooks/waiters. they’re trained to cook the meat in a certain way, and it makes all the differance. usually there will be a cook/waiter grilling your meat for you- and that’s when it turns out the best. they wait for high tempatures, for a nice sear, and a medium rare inide. the seasoning used is light and minimal, and enhances the meat flavor, instead of covering it like many bbq places that use lower quality meat.
to order, we ask them to arrange some meats for us and give them an amount.. 1500 has been good for me so far! as for meat, i ask for mostly beef, with some chicken and veggies.
i’ve been there several times already, since i found that im discovering this gem a bit late .. but every time i go i’m so excited to eat, that i forget to snap photos… so here’s a compilation of pics from my last 3 visits.
beef with minced onions. seared medium rare, rolled up and served. dip in freshly squeezed lime juice. one of my faves.
below: steak in its process! here you see it marbled and rare, ready to grill.
grilling. smells so good..
sliced and ready to eat.
another wagyu steak ready for the grill.
this is another favorite, they serve it with a bit of wasabi- which makes the meat taste sweeter and adds a refreshing kick.
sigh…
lastly, chicken cartilage. crunchy, with bits of meat still on.. yuM yum.
i’m salivating just posting this..
