Pingtung
Chen Family Pig's Knuckle is the fourth-largest food company in
Taiwan. The pig's knuckle is made using Chinese medicine for a unique
flavor. With this eatery's opening, this specialty dish of the Pingtung
area is now available in Taichung. The original owner of this company
passed on the techniques for making this specialty--which he learned
in Guanzhou--to his son Chen Bin-jou. The pig's knuckle is still
made in Pingtung, but is vacuum-packed to ensure freshness and shipped
to Taichung. It is available in gift boxes (NT$450 each) , set meals
(NT$100 to NT$150) and eight-person banquet meals (NT$900). Mr.
Chen is hoping to reach his goal of 100 franchise outlets islandwide
in the near future. -By Rachel Chiou
