“The fried-then-braised pork knuckle makes a worthwhile night meal: substantial yet moist, joined by wok-scented oyster egg, sweet three-cup chicken, and charred fish intestine. Its name preserves a story of gratitude; allow queue time.”

✨ AI Quick Take

老二腿庫飯 is an honest Kaohsiung late-night shop where braise, stir-fries, and service rhythm stay steady. Pork knuckle rice, oyster egg, and three-cup chicken make a substantial home-style supper.

Uncle's take: A late-night shop that steadies knuckle, stir-fries, and service understands night owls.
Setting and atmosphere:Opening at eight in the evening, tables, wok aroma, and waiting crowds animate the night. Hung Chuang Mei-chu founded it in 1987 and used Lao Er with her benefactor's permission. Take a number and wait to be called.
Location and dining notes:Around 高雄市苓雅區興中二路116、118號, phone 07-333-2779, near Ziqiang Night Market and Sanduo. Open evening to early morning and closed Sunday. Take a number, expect difficult parking, and arrive early for limited fish intestine.
● Braised Pork Knuckle Rice

Rice catches the braise beneath thoroughly tender knuckle. Lean meat stays moist, fat smooth, and the savory aroma satisfies without relying on heavy salt.

● Oyster Egg

Tender egg and fresh oyster overlap with clear wok aroma in a direct home-style stir-fry ideal with rice.

● Three-Cup Chicken

Sweet-leaning, concentrated sauce clings to chicken and encourages more rice without becoming excessive.



● Pan-Fried Fish Intestine

A memorable limited item, charred outside and tender within; lemon sharpens and freshens the slight bitterness. Arrive early if coming specifically for it.

💡 Ordering note

Pair knuckle rice with bamboo shoots, share oyster egg and three-cup chicken, and eat fish intestine hot. Ask portions before turning a meal for two into a banquet.
