Partners, skewers, satisfaction, izakaya, these four keywords are the operating concept that Huosuman Jiuchang wants to bring to local residents. They want to operate locally and let every customer eat happily and satisfied, whether adults, children, elderly, or young, everyone can find their own dishes here and enjoy this warm time.
Why did Huosuman Jiuchang finally use izakaya instead of izakaya? The owners of Huosuman Jiuchang are a group of people born in the 1970s; they don't want this restaurant to be bound by izakaya, but want a more casual, bright, comfortable, suitable for group gatherings and acquaintances drinking, open space for all ages, operating until the early morning, under this concept, they used the more variable izakaya, which also distinguishes it from many late-night izakayas now.
Huosuman Jiuchang has two floors; the first floor has a bar counter and an eight-person large table.
If you are a regular customer on the first floor, you can chat with the owner, which is also great.
Continue up to the second floor, passing many cute illustrations.
After stepping on the stairs, it's the bright and spacious second-floor dining space.
The second-floor dining space is so bright that it might be mistaken for a cafe.
Plants plus wooden furniture make it as relaxing as home.
You can unload the armor of facing work all day and enjoy a good meal.
Every corner is bright and clean, meticulously tidy.
Dining here is very reassuring, like at home, with healthy cuisine and safe ingredients, as if eating a dinner prepared by parents to soothe your soul.
In the restaurant's furniture selection, you can feel that the owners hope everyone who comes here can be comfortable.
Every chair, table, even the lighting, is for people to sit for a long time; the sofa is so soft and comfortable! Chill to the max.
In such a bright space, even drinking won't feel pressured.
On the day we dined, we saw many adults bringing children; adults drinking one or two glasses of alcohol, children can eat delicious and not too salty or spicy dishes, taking care of two age groups at once. Even as parents, you can come for a drink; it feels really great!
Parents with children will definitely understand! Every time going to an izakaya, you're afraid of the noisy environment and the smell of alcohol overwhelming the kids, and afraid that the dishes' flavors won't be accepted by children, fearing this and that, you can only sneak out for a drink when the kids are asleep; but at Huosuman Jiuchang, you can drink easily and let the kids eat happily. There are many non-fried charcoal grilled options, so you're not afraid of kids eating too much fried food, and finally! You don't have to clean up yourself! This meal at Huosuman Jiuchang is like heaven for parents with kids!
The prices at Huosuman Jiuchang are very cheap! Skewers starting from NT$35 per skewer are really budget-friendly.
Taiwanese and Japanese style skewers can also satisfy different tastes in the family.
Drinks not on the menu can be seen in the refrigerator.
There are so many Calpis that kids like, definitely making parents satisfied.
Because we drove today, we didn't drink alcohol; the store manager made two sparkling specials for us.
After stirring, it changes color and is super beautiful.
It has the feeling of orange pulp with soda, pretty and delicious.
But this is only for regular customers or when the store manager is available～
A major feature of Huosuman Jiuchang is that they will customize the flavor for you; when ordering, the owner will check if you've ordered alcohol and slightly adjust the saltiness of the dish.
This thoughtful little gesture is very surprising! Even for children, they will adjust if there's any spiciness.
The fried rice at Huosuman Jiuchang is so good!
Each grain is distinct, fluffy, and tasty; the curry flavor adds points, every grain of rice has the curry essence fried in.
Garnished with pineapple and pork floss, making the whole fried rice flavorful and vibrant.
The spicy aroma, fluffy and distinct texture, plus the sweet and sour, and pork floss aftertaste.
Makes the whole plate of fried rice lively in the mouth like dancing butterflies.
The portion is about for three people, which is surprising!
It's a substantial dish that leaves a deep impression and is quite eye-catching!
The grilled skewers are served next; whether sauce-grilled or salt-grilled, they look great!
The unique texture and elasticity of pork tongue is special, but its distinct pork flavor is relatively strong.
Therefore, choosing salt-grilling requires skillful technique.
How to achieve the best doneness and salt balance is the skill!
The pork tongue at Huosuman Jiuchang is grilled with full charcoal aroma.
The interplay of charred and charcoal aromas is captivating, and the texture is even better! The pork flavor is great, not too heavy but very rich.
It's a bit surprising, pairs well with drinks! Makes you suddenly want to drink～
Cheap! Delicious!
These two words can fully describe the grilled pork belly at Huosuman Jiuchang.
I really like how they grill the fat of the pork belly to be fragrant, crispy, and tasty, while ensuring the lean meat isn't too tough! Really delicious!
If you like sauce-grilled, you can't miss theirs.
The sauce-grilled at Huosuman Jiuchang isn't too salty, with a bit of sweetness that's very appetizing.
The tofu skin has a strong aroma, crispy and crunchy texture; kids will like it too!
And the grilled tofu skin at Huosuman Jiuchang is moist inside!
It doesn't feel too dry when you eat it; only the outside is crispy while the inside is soft～ So delicious, addictive.
The pork blood cake at Huosuman Jiuchang is less eye-catching compared to other grilled items.
Although it's tasty～ But I prefer eating meat and tofu skin.
Pork blood cake is a bit dry for me, but if you like dry-stirred dishes like dry-stirred green beans.
This sweet and not spicy, I directly fell in love with it.
Soft and thick, the fish paste flavor is very charming～ The key is that the sauce is brushed just right.
Brushed with sauce and grilled, full of aroma; after grilling, brushed with another layer to make it moist before serving.
The chosen sweet and not spicy has a great texture, soft and tender, and very fragrant; I really like it.
The sauce-grilled chicken thigh is a bit dry.
I originally expected the sauce to be brushed thicker, but it seems a bit less.
The flavor is good but a little dry; compared to that, I prefer the pork belly.
If you're eating chicken thigh skewers, I recommend the mentaiko chicken thigh skewers at Huosuman Jiuchang more.
Their mentaiko is great! Not too greasy but very aromatic.
When served, it's not very eye-catching, but it's surprising when you eat it～
The chicken thigh is so tender! Like sous-vide chicken!
Plus the outer torched mentaiko, the aroma is upgraded～ The chicken oil with mentaiko is too powerful.
Directly making my stomach growl.
Hot eating adds points.
But even when cold, it's amazing～ The mentaiko at Huosuman Jiuchang isn't greasy! So magical.
I don't know how it's prepared; it's very appetizing! Super recommended!
If you come to Huosuman Jiuchang for a meal, this sausage is a must-eat!
It's all handmade by the owner, with a great sorghum aroma, and intentionally served whole with garlic～ This Taiwanese way of eating is so satisfying!
Recommend one per person, otherwise there might be fights!
I mentioned earlier that the mentaiko at Huosuman Jiuchang is great.
This mentaiko yam is naturally not bad! Also super delicious～
The yam is grilled yet retains moisture, with a grilled aroma.
The outer mentaiko is torched with a strong aroma.
The whole flavor wanders between vegetables and mentaiko, endlessly enjoyable.
Every chew and mix is a shock to the taste buds; the yam's refreshing and sticky, mentaiko's richness and smoothness, the alternation is really great.
Apparently, many people come for their stinky tofu.
The spicy flavor is great, tingling and refreshing, and there's pickled cabbage inside～ Pairs well with rice.
The tofu itself is sufficiently fermented, with a great texture.
The stinky tofu has a rich bean aroma, the kind that's very beany～ You can taste the effort put into making it.
It's actually served whole～ Too awesome!
Sometimes in Taipei, you only get half; fish lovers must order it!
The outer crispy and inner tender texture is captivating.
It also comes with lemon and pepper salt to pair with; the fish meat is fragrant and sweet, delicious, and such a big one is super satisfying.
Finally, you can order a small dessert～ Definitely not found in an izakaya!
This is also a big plus for liking Huosuman Jiuchang.
Dong the ant-eater ate it super happily.
Smooth and tender crème brûlée, with crispy caramel.
As the ending to the whole meal, it's so blissful～ Adds enough points.
It's really hard to eat so satisfyingly at a regular izakaya.
You can enjoy delicious food in a relaxed, quiet, and comfortable way, while also eating your fill; bringing children can also make them eat happily～ It's really suitable for family gatherings, friends' gatherings, or late-night dining.
It's also a great late-night recommendation; a few simple skewers with drinks, really blissful! If you're in Zhongli, I recommend Huosuman Jiuchang; coming here for dinner or late-night is super satisfying!
