古早味豆花
台北市民生西路210號

Located next to the popular Ning Hsia Night Market, this place served traditional-style tofu dessert. This place is recommended by a friend of mine from Taichung. "recommmended" in the sense that she hasn't tried it before, but is recommended by a Japanese magazine.
The restaurant front is clean and tidy. Service not so great. Food-wise, it offers all the varieties that you would expect in a typical tofu dessert parlour. I'm not a big fan of soy bean products, and therefore I can't say that I've had enough tofu dessert to really tell whether this is thumbs-up or thumbs-down. Supposedly popular, the parlour is not busy at all.
In a tranditional tofu dessert dish, the tofu slices are served with a sugar water. This parlour however, offers the option of replacing the sugar water with soy bean milk. I'm guessing this is an original dish, so I ordered it and added a taro ball topping to richen the flavour. Finished the dish, and that was it. Not eye-opening nor tongue twisting. I'm inclined to assume that this is a parlour that is catered for Japanese tourists only.
