[Taiwan] 台北，捷運西湖站，連進酸菜白肉鍋-內湖店 (China Northeast Pot)

雖然中秋烤肉似乎已經成了一個新的傳統，但還是沒想到會這麼誇張，在國慶日連假的下午，打了三四家內湖附近的烤肉店，都告訴我今晚客滿，或者等今晚的第二輪，九點以後才有位子，乾脆就直接放棄，改成來吃個不一樣的「連進酸菜白肉鍋」。
Near Mid-Autumn Festival (also called Moon Festival), it's really hard to find a BBQ restaurant for dinner. Every restaurant I called told me that it's full, if I can wait to 9:00 PM, then I can have a seat there. So, I found another type of restaurant for the dinner, the China Northeast Pot.

會來這兒用餐，除了前述理由，還有兩大原因，一是由於連進的主廚以前也是名店─台電勵進的廚師，口味上不敢說是否能超越，畢竟我還沒在勵進用過餐，但至少應該有一定水準；二是因為這兒提供450元吃到飽的服務，算是挺經濟實惠的，可以一路吃肉吃到大滿足！
上圖的菜單，左半邊是可無限加點的各式肉品，海鮮與丸餃，右側則是可另外加價購買的單品，今晚基本上都只享用左側的吃到飽。
The chef of this restaurant worked at the very famous Taipower restaurant before, but he makes some changes and open this one. Tonight, we just try the all-you-can-eat, NTD 450 for each person for the dishes on the left hand side on the menu. On the right hand side, are those for specific order.

由於這兒基本上只有一道主食─酸菜白肉鍋，於是每桌的桌面都已經放好的一鍋的酸菜火鍋，旁邊則有一盤酸菜，可以用來調節湯的酸度，這兒的酸菜用的是高麗菜，不是一般比較常見的大白菜，據說是因為高麗菜久煮之後不會變爛，仍能保持口感；另一盤的冬粉，則是上菜前的小零嘴。
Since here only serves the China Northeast Pot, it's ready on every table. There is one plate of sour cabbage for adjust how sour the soup may be. And one plate of green bean noodle which you can eat before the food is ready.

店家提供了超過十種以上的醬料，不過我只拿了一點「主廚特調」，想要嘗嘗酸菜白肉適合什麼樣的醬汁。
There are many different kinds of sauces. Because I found the chef special, I just take some of it.

有點忘了前後是不是只點了三盤的配料，個人挺喜愛的是凍豆腐，吸飽了微酸的湯汁之後，好吃極了，金針菇也很新鮮，燙一下就可享用，鮮脆可口，蛤蜊只要抓好時間，殼一開就起鍋，鮮甜美味～
Above are the popular side dishes people may cook for the hot pot. It's fresh and good taste.

最愛的，還是這一盤豬五花，不止有漂亮的油花，還帶著豬皮，涮個10到15秒即可燙熟，有著豬皮的Q嫰，油花的脂肪，加上瘦肉的鮮美，真的是美味呀，讓人一口接一口，超好吃；雖然我們另外有點一盤豬梅花(肩肉)，由於只是有瘦肉，比較有彈性，口感比較單一，反倒沒有豬五花好吃。
The best one is this, the pork belly. You only need to shabu shabu it for 10 to 15 seconds, it's so good. With the chewy skin, it's fantastic. We also ordered one plate of blade shoulder, it's good. But without the fat, not as delicious as the belly.

最後的飯後甜點則是豆沙鍋餅，微甜的豆沙，加上Q軟的餅皮，很不錯的結尾。
The dessert, just a little bit sweet. 

PS. 這兒的蔥油餅也很好吃，搭配冬粉更是別有一番風味，可惜光顧著吃，沒來得及拍照，不知何時才會有機會補上照片，呵～
PS. It also serves delicious scallion pie (or called scallion pancake), but we forgot to take photos, ha~
