Heard about a new-ish Taiwanese Jiang Bing (crepe/omelette) place and had to check it out...
Found next to the Landsdowne hotel is Mr Bing Gourmet Wrapz, who do several different types of Jian Bing, from Chinese, Korean, to Taiwanese, and an Aussie style one. The Anglicised term for Jiang Bing would be fried egg pancake similar to a scallion pancake and it's pretty much a breakfast street food in parts of Asia.
If you like crepes, kebabs, burritoes, scallion pancakes, and omelettes, you will like Jiang Bing.
I haven't had a good Jiang Bing in a while so I opted for the Taiwanese style one with pork floss, bao cui (fried cracker,) and Taiwanese mayo ($5.90.) Taiwanese style Jiang Bing's are typically thinner and moister than their Chinese counterparts.
AWESOME.
UGHHH I WANT ANOTHER ONE.
I also got a Taiwanese style braised beef one ($9.90) where the meat is braised just like the beef in Beef Noodle Soup (Niu Rou Mian.) I couldn't finish this, not because it wasn't tasty but because one of these is pretty huge. It's not as wide as say a burrito from Guzman, but it's definitely longer so it's probably the same altogether.
While the beef one was tasty, I can't justify spending $9.90 on this...it just seems like it's overpriced for the contents...though if you don't mind the price by all means order it and enjoy it.
The pork floss on the other hand is awesome at $5.90....ordering 2 of these would be massive overkill, but delicious overkill for less than $12.
Definitely will be coming back for some pork floss goodness. read more
