In the Taipei Yakitori Circle, the existence of Birdy Yakitori is a special "exception". It is unwilling to be reconciled to the calmness of the traditional heat, but regards the entire meal period as a "culinary exhibition that takes the viewer on a journey." Following the stunning Southeast Asian style of last season, this season's theme inspired by the eight major Chinese cuisines once again proves the chef's ambition to break through the framework.
Overall, with the exception of a few details (such as the slightly thicker skin of the Xiaolongbao and the weaker performance of the drink), almost every dish of Birdy is so wonderful that it is reminiscent of a standing ovation-both creative and technical, it is the most worth a visit in the Taipei bird-burning world. The narrator is worth a visit again.

Birdy menu introduction and dining experience

Appetizing three products

Scallion roast chicken claw jelly, Zhejiang vinegar paste, shredded white scallions
The silky elasticity and toughness of the condensed chicken claw jelly were sharply cut by the ripe rice acetic acid fragrance of Zhejiang vinegar paste, and the crisp fracture of the shredded white scallions was at the end, and the taste buds were lit up in one bite. This is a clear and layered demonstration of acidity, perfectly bringing the taste buds into this Chinese-style journey.
Pepper, hemp, walnut
Nut oil and pepper, hemp and spicy aromas collide in the mouth, bringing a round and long numbness, and the aromas of the finish are stacked, which is a short but surprising highlight.
Osmanthus honey sweet potato, pickled pepper and black plum sauce
It is sweet and soft and waxy, with osmanthus flowers, and has a gentle taste. It's just that the acidity and acidity of pickled pepper umei are not very prominent, and the acidity of its design fails to increase the level significantly. If the acidity and acidity can be increased, or it can be placed in the later part of the meal, it will balance the taste buds more appropriately.

Chicken breast, Niigata chili

The semi-cooked chicken breast is smooth, tender and delicate, with a refreshing chili sauce and grapefruit aroma in the spicy fragrance, and its performance is stable. Although similar performance can be found in many yakiniku shops, it is still a good start for peace of mind.

 Oyster meat

The outer skin is crispy, the inside is firm and elastic, and the grease is balanced but not greasy, demonstrating a well-established and stable baking technique. It's just that it also belongs to a relatively common and low degree of surprise.

Chicken wings, pepper, white fungus

This dish perfectly shows the theme of the season. First marinate with pepper and spices, then stuff the spicy white fungus stewed in chicken soup, and finally fry it until golden and crispy. The juice overflowed at the moment of biting, and the taste level exploded at the same time. The elasticity and toughness of the white fungus were as surprising as a shower. Perfect proof: creativity is not a gimmick, but a solid taste building.

Chicken drumsticks, garlic seedlings

The roasting process is stable, but the flavor design is biased towards tradition, and the flavor superposition of this season's theme is lacking. It is relatively reactive during the meal period, which slightly disturbs the excitement of the overall performance.

Grilled chicken meatballs with sauce, egg yolk

The proportion of cartilage will be more pleasing if it is increased, but it is still a classic and stable existence. The thickness of the egg yolk enhances the overall viscosity and aroma.

Clarification of Buddha jumping over the wall chicken soup

It is made of smoked dried goods and air-dried chicken and ham, with a grand image. However, the soup body has a clear nourishing smell of traditional Chinese medicine (such as angelica or red dates). Although it is strong, it makes the style of the soup too solemn, which weakens its clearing effect during the roast bird meal.

Sauce roasted lily root, chickpeas cream sauce, pickled pepper pepper sauce, crushed fennel

Lily root is roasted soft and dense, the creamy chickpea sauce makes it rich in taste, and the pickled pepper sauce successfully increases the excitement. The crushed fennel above is like a highlight of the aroma, which makes the overall tone more three-dimensional.

Chicken sashimi, green bamboo shoots, mustard Qingjiang vegetables, Oolong tea jelly, chicken white soup

Representative level! The soft and tender chicken breast raw food and the sweet burst of bamboo shoots, the refreshing aromas of Qingjiang vegetables and tea jelly, push the taste buds to a multi-dimensional sensory experience. The extremely dense and silky chicken white soup at the bottom brings out a velvety soft coating, connecting all the sense of touch and taste, and it is a classic that can make people close their eyes and savor it carefully.

Leg meat

The oil has a good aroma, but the overall performance is conservative, which is a string of less memorable points tonight.

Achilles tendon

There will always be Birdy classics that will want to add two more strings after eating. With pink juicy meat hearts, crispy leg skins, and just the right amount of fat and gravy, almost no store can achieve the same sense of layering.

Xiaolongbao (chicken minced meat, beef tomato)

The concept is full score, and points are deducted for execution. The concept and theme of freshly rolled dough are very interesting, but this time the dough is not malleable and slightly thick, resulting in a heavy mouth and a lack of light soup. If the dough can be rolled out thinner, it will be able to better fit the light image of "Xiaolongbao".

Chicken wings, homemade seven flavor powder (including blue and white pepper)

The spicy aromas of blue and white pepper and Qiwei powder neutralize the grease, making it not greasy, but the more you eat, the more you rinse your mouth. Even people who don't usually like to chew bones can be persuaded.

Chicken heart

Birdy's chicken hearts are always dazzling-large, juicy, and with sauce to enhance the aroma, their fullness and presence are impressive.

Mapo Tofu, Niigata Koshihikari Rice

The end of breaking the principle! Homemade egg tofu is used, and the seasoning is Mapo sauce based on the aroma of tempeh, which brings a round and long numbness, but magically removes the aggressive spiciness. The saturation of this aroma makes the drinker willing to break the principle and take a spoonful to the end.

Dessert platter of Eight major cuisines

Fujian watermelon Mint, Huai Rose lychee Lotus Root Powder cake, Hunan Black sesame Sponge cake, Sichuan Brown Sugar Ziba, Hui osmanthus mung Bean cake, Cantonese horseshoe cake, Lu Hong Jujube Yokan, Zhejiang Longjing amber Candy, and finally tangerine peel Pu'er tea.
It is really admirable to be able to eat such a complete set of desserts with clear cultural imagery in the Yakitori shop. The setting is surging and the theme is extremely strong, which draws a sincere end to this journey.

Drink pairing

Mocktail B (Biluochun, apple, jasmine) has a soft performance, but lacks the excitement of highlights and flavors. Ordering beer or sake directly next time will be more suitable for the flavor intensity of this complete menu.

Personal feelings

I am even more convinced that I prefer Birdy, a form of bird burning that has the courage to break through the framework, storytelling and adventurous spirit. It is not presented in a flat and stable format, but on the basis of traditional heat, it infinitely extends the imagination of cooking.
The significance of Birdy is that it is not just to provide a delicious meal of grilled chicken skewers, but to take guests on a trip full of cultural dialogue. It proves that creativity is not a gimmick, but a solid sense of taste, and it is also a powerful driving force to promote the advancement of the burning bird world.

關於我

Choosy Chou

Hi, this is Chou Chou. Because I have always been "picky" about good things, I founded Choosy Chou to record and share the food, flavors and travel experiences that are truly worthy of being remembered. I am a food and flavor explorer, from street food to Michelin restaurants, from hidden bars to boutique cafes, I like to use my professional senses to taste, understand and compare, rather than just taking pictures and checking in. I have WSET Wine Level 2, WSET Sake Level 1, SSI Sake Navigator, and Coffee CSP Sensory Skill Foundation licenses. I hope to use a more systematic way to show you the flavor value behind a glass of wine and a dish. I have traveled to many countries such as the United States, Japan, South Korea, Iceland, and the United Kingdom. I believe that the most authentic language in the world is hidden on the table and in the cup. Choosy is not picky, but an insistence on the quality of life. You are welcome to join me in savoring the world with higher standards.
