🥢流動的饗宴，梁記嘉義雞肉飯 Taiwanese Chicken with rice at Liang Restaurant, Taipei

2022 年 4 月 1 日

即便是海明威與費茲傑羅同在的巴黎，也比不上有雞肉飯的台北...

小小一碗雞肉飯，沒有醃黃瓜，雞肉份量剛好，飯裡雞油份量也恰到好處，不讓飯太濕太油，調味單純好吃。

There’s no any pickled vegetable in this small bowl of Taiwanese Chicken with rice at Liang Restaurant. The work of seasoning is almost perfect that could bring out the aroma of chicken oil but not much.

梁記嘉義雞肉飯的雞肉飯份量不是重點，店家設計的美味陷阱，本來就是要顧客多點小菜，嚐試各種味道。

It seems to me that the amont of the rices isn’t the issue. Liang Restaurant wants you to try side dishes they served besides Taiwanese Chicken with rice.

小菜裡，最令人驚艷的是炒洋蔥，

在平常自助餐店裡大多難吃的炒洋蔥，

卻在梁記嘉義雞肉飯店裡成了佳餚，

舌尖嚐得出雞高湯的滋潤，

這再度印證了只要把主要料理做好，

那鍋高湯將讓所有小菜受惠的定理。

Fried onions surprised me. I did not have any good fried onions in any cheap restaurants in Taiwan. But fried onions of Liang Restaurant was great that you could taste some chicken soup in it.

That’s the whole idea of Taiwanese foods. If you could cook one main dish great, rest of your dishes would be good with the soup of main dish.

手工魚丸湯清淡，但湯裡有高湯提味，一口雞肉飯配一口湯時，兩邊香味可以共融，味道甚佳。

Soup with handmade fish-balls they served was good with the help of chicken soup. A bit of Taiwanese Chicken with rice matched a sip of soup with handmade fish-balls. It’s almost perfect.

與其他食客並桌，一起享用台灣小菜與雞肉飯的香味，聽著四周各種聊天話題與故事，有人吃完離開，隨即有人坐下補上，這是充滿生命力的晚餐，在城市裡流動的饗宴。

You gotta share the table with strangers to eat. You could listen to all kinds of stories they talked about. The business of Liang Restaurant was so good that always someone take the next seat. It’s a restaurant full with vitality of Taiwan.

There’s a moveable feast in this Taiwanese restaurant.
