Do It True, Beijing restaurant in Zhenghe Village, Xinyi District, Taiwan.
Do It True is a Beijing-style restaurant in a spacious dining room furnished with walnut wood pieces and large windows overlooking tree-lined streets. The focus centers on northern Chinese dishes prepared with carefully selected ingredients and traditional cooking methods.
The establishment started as a street food stall in Kaohsiung in 1949 and relocated to Taipei during the 1960s. The recipes originate from an imperial chef who served during the Qing Dynasty era.
The menu honors Beijing cooking methods through dishes like pine-smoked poultry and hand-wrapped dumplings filled with pork and shrimp, prepared according to family recipes passed down through generations.
The restaurant operates daily throughout lunch and dinner hours with prices in the higher range. Visitors should bring cash for payment and consider making reservations ahead of time to ensure seating availability.
The signature dish features deep-fried pork balls made from specific cuts of the hind leg, seasoned with multiple spices and smoked before serving. These balls arrive with house-made sauces that highlight the complex flavors of the preparation.
