We love going to Tai Er for the sauerkraut fish. It’s perfect for a group of friends because you can order the combo and share everything. The food comes out very fast, and the service is amazing.
The dishes are beautifully presented, and the portions are generous. The fish is sour, spicy, soft, and so good over rice. We also always play the table fortune game, which makes the experience even more fun. The best part is the mochi ice cream at the very end!!
