A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣), Serving the Abundant, Springy and Tasty Tempura in Taipei, Taiwan!


In the morning of May 19, 2020, it rained a lot in Taipei, Taiwan. My friends and I met at MRT Houshanpi Station and then went for brunch. The restaurant we visited that day was the famous restaurant, A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣)!


I heard that the customers here were all local residents. A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣) was very popular with the local, even at the off-peak time.


Here were not many options on the menu. The signature was tempura! Customers could also order the additional cellophane noodles.


I ordered a large bowl of tempura at 70 TWD (= 2.34 USD).


Soon my tempura was served! The tempura here looked not only abundant but also various. The topped tangerine sauce made the the tempura so mouth-watering!


The shapes of tempura were strip and round. The texture was very springy. With the sweet and salty tempura sauce, the tempura tasted great!


The various meat balls were also al dente with abundant ingredients. They tasted more delicious with the sauce!


Moreover, here were the rare ingredients, like the fried wonton. The wonton was so good and impressive. But here was only 1 wonton in the bowl.


Pig's blood cakes here were quite thick. I felt so satisfied with them!


After I almost finished the tempura, I poured the free hot soup into my bowl at the soup area.


The soup was based on the bonito and pork bone. It tasted so fresh and delicious! Additionally, the combination of the soup and tempura sauce was great!


The radish was soft at the perfect point!

Personally speaking, I like A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣) so much! Especially the springy tempura, the sweet and salty tempura sauce and free but fantastic soup are all the reason why A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣) is worth visiting again and again. Not surprisingly, A-Lai's Tempura (阿來甜不辣) is always popular with local residents here!
