I’ve yet to visit Taiwan (soon, I hope), but I’ve already embarked on a potentially never-ending journey of discovering the best Taiwanese food Singapore has to offer.
A new supper spot to check out the next time those cravings for braised pork rice (lu rou fan) or egg crepes arise is Jyu Gae Bistro in Bras Basah.

The cosy yet atmospheric bistro prides itself on creating a “welcome home” Taiwanese dining experience for every guest that walks through the door, which is very fitting, given that the “聚” in Jyu Gae (聚阁) translates to the word “gather”.

A unique blend of Taiwanese flavours takes centre stage in the menu, which features an extensive selection of breakfast/brunch offerings, rice bowls, grilled skewers, dessert, and so much more, alongside a variety of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages like Taiwan beer and bubble tea.

Jyu Gae Bistro is perhaps best known for its signature Claypot Rice Braised Set (S$13.90), tender-braised pork belly served in a clay pot alongside piping hot rice, gooey-yolk eggs, pork floss, and pickled vegetables. Hearty and value-for-money!

Those who can never get enough of classic Taiwanese street food can go for the Jyu Gae Signature 3 Bowls Set (S$16.90), a house special featuring Braised Pork Rice, Oyster Mee Sua, and Salt & Pepper Popcorn Chicken.

One of the more unique offerings on the menu has got to be the Jingyi Night Market Hotplate Sizzling Noodle (from S$15.90) — chewy noodles and a sunny-side-up served on a sizzlin’ hotplate with your choice of protein (Signature Grilled Chicken, Classic Pork Shop, Salmon Steak, or Ribeye Steak) and black pepper or mushroom sauce.

If you drop by after 8.30pm (or wait till then), you can also tuck into smoky yakitori-style Grilled Skewers, which include the likes of Taiwanese Sausage (S$4.90), Chicken Teriyaki (S$3), Seafood Tempura (S$3), and Grilled Tiger Prawn (S$4.90).

Don’t forget to end the meal with one of Taiwan’s most beloved street food staples — Taiwanese Ice Cream Popiah (S$8.90) — in flavours like Muah Chee, Taro Yam, and Coconut.
And of course, guests can expect to be entertained by a live band every night from 8pm onwards!
