Tucked in an alley near Jincheng Station, “Sheng Ji Snack Shop” has long been a must-visit haunt for serious food lovers. The forty-year-old institution is famous for its wontons and pork meatballs: choice hind-leg pork is marinated in a house seasoning, then hand-wrapped into wontons and rolled into meatballs with zero shortcuts. Every wrapper, filling, and ball is shaped by the owner himself; each bite-size morsel slips down the throat, light and never greasy. Mention wontons or pork meatballs to a Kinmen local today and “Sheng Ji” is the name that instantly comes to mind.
