Tips

culture
焢肉饭 is a staple Taiwanese rice bowl: a thick slab of soy-and-rock-sugar-braised pork belly over white rice, often with pickled greens. The mainland equivalent dish is 红烧肉.
register
reflects the Taiwanese Hokkien verb khòng (to braise low and slow); the same word is sometimes written or in menus.
