Formosa Chang - Banqiao (Zhongshan)

Chain specializing in minced pork rice with branches across Taiwan and overseas. Started as a 1960s street stall at Shuanglian Market before expanding into a fast casual concept modeled after McDonald's efficiency but serving traditional Taiwanese snacks. The signature lu rou fan features fatty pork stewed in sweet soy sauce ladled over rice, a dish that won recognition at Taipei's Traditional Food Carnival. The menu includes turkey rice, braised duck eggs, chicken on rice, and pork rib soup with bitter gourd. The Banqiao Zhongshan location offers wooden tables and a clean, air-conditioned environment with polite service, though prices run higher than mom-and-pop shops serving similar fare.
