After a month's renovation work
in May, Silver Wings restaurant is celebrating
their 60th birthday this July. With a brand new
decor and atmosphere, this tried and true favorite
is ready to greet patrons with their sumptuous
Zhun-Yang specialties.
Zhun-Yang cuisine originated during the Sui/Tang
dynasties. Back then, Yangzhou (a city in Jiangsu
province) was filled with great businesses and
commodities and Zhun-Yang cuisine was a major
part of the diet. These days, the differences
between Shanghai, Ningbo and Jiangzhe delicacies
are hard to define and the three are often confused.
Owner/manger Mr. Lan recommends
their Smoked Chang Fish (NT$980) and Seasoned
Pot Shrimp (NT$390/small), which is shrimp soaked
in tomato juice with chicken slices. Silver Wings
also offers a selection of noodle dishes and snacks
like Assorted Steamed Dumplings (NT$170), a variety
of sweet/salty buns, steamed dumplings, and pork
dumplings wrapped with pine leaves in bamboo.
Siver Wings' customers can also try popular dishes
like the Signature Three Meats (NT$390/small),
which is pork, chicken and fish, or the Stir Fried
Eel (NT$410/small), a Silver Wings exclusive.
Zhun-Yang cuisine's particularity about the blending
of flavors can be tasted dishes like the Thousand-Slice
Tofu (NT$260/small), which like its name suggests,
is tofu cut into thousands of thin strips before
being cooked.
The front dining area at Silver
Wings restaurant is designated for members of
the air force; back in the early days, this area
only catered meals for officers and politicians.
So, the next time you visit Silver Wings, don't
be surprised if you are surrounded by senior citizens
who have been coming here for literally decades!
