Reporter Xu Shuling / Taipei Report
Wuhan pneumonia is wreaking havoc around the world and the number of diagnoses in various countries continues to increase day by day. It has also affected the world economy and the whole body. The benefits of tourism have also been tested in various countries. Taking Taiwan as an example, Chinese cannot travel abroad unless necessary, and foreign tourists cannot enter Taiwan, which also makes it difficult for many domestic stores to stop the epidemic and close. It became known that Taiwan’s first Taiwanese restaurant “AoBa”, founded in 1964, has been in business for 56 years. It seems that it was lost because of the epidemic. It was previously announced on the fan page “AoBa 青叶 台灣 飯 (Taiwanese Cuisine)”. It will take a temporary break after October 25, waiting for a suitable time in the future before starting again.

The full text of Aoba’s Taiwanese ad: “Thank you to all customers who have cared and supported Aoba Restaurant for 56 years. Aoba Taiwanese Restaurant will take a temporary break after October 25, the last business day, to recharge and wait the right time in the future to start over. And we look forward to the reunion day as soon as possible, reuniting with the old and new friends who love Qingye’s Taiwanese cuisine. “
In this regard, Aoba Zhang’s explanation will suddenly announce the suspension of business because the epidemic has caused a sharp drop in the number of visitors. The number of visitors in the past is about 5,000 people every month. After the outbreak of the epidemic, there are only 2,000 people left each month and performance has at least dropped. More than 50%. However, the store manager emphasized that the brand will not disappear. The reopening time depends on the final decision of the boss. It mainly depends on the situation of the epidemic. If the epidemic slows down, normal sightseeing and travel will be possible, and “Aoba” will reopen as quickly as possible in the shortest possible time. Open, but it is not currently known if it will be in the original store location.

In the ROC in 38 years, with the transfer of the government to Taiwan and accompanying chefs from official residences of various provinces of China, after more than ten years of development, little Taiwan has brought together famous chefs from the north and south from China, as well as provincial cuisine. They compete with each other here. In 1991, Ms. Shen Yunying, founder of Qingye, felt that traditional Chinese cuisine lacked the term “Taiwanese cuisine.” I was hoping to bring the true flavor of Taiwanese cuisine to the Chinese gourmet forest due to the lack of the word “Taiwanese cuisine”. Take it forward.
Therefore, Ms. Shen began to collect information from various sources and classify them. Finally, she chose to use the “Beitou Banquet Kitchen” at that time. At that time, all the people they could try were powerful and powerful people at a price that was not affordable for ordinary people. “Large plates become small plates” and “to make up for shortcomings”, using the banquet method of cooking seasonal dishes, creating Taiwan’s first Taiwanese cuisine “Aoyeh Taiwanese Restaurant”. With orchard eggs, braised tofu, sweet and sour pork ribs, mosquito, fried pork, salty and crispy shrimp, eight fried pieces, oyster oyster, sweet potato porridge as the star dishes of the venture.

Later, more than 200 types of authentic or improved Taiwanese cuisine have been introduced, including Huazhiwan, small fish peanut, four fried silks, abalone silver buds, shrimp cakes, fried oysters, and baked rice. There is a poignant allusion behind every kitchen. There is even a saying among Japanese tourists: “If you travel to Taiwan, you cannot count that you have visited Taiwan if you have not visited the National Palace Museum or Aoba.”
