B VISITOR RATING

METROBITES VISITOR RATING

Consider it if you are nearby

“Worth a short detour for freshly steamed cheung fun. Rice batter and fillings are steamed together, then finished with a mellow house sauce; mixed and double-egg versions each have their own character. Side dishes and bak kut teh add contrasting textures, while the couple-run shop keeps a warm, homey feel.”

THE STORY

The story behind this place

From traditional industry to a cheung fun shop with his wife

The owner once worked as a manager in traditional industry and spent years posted in Southeast Asia and mainland China. After leaving that career, he and his wife returned home and turned the food they had encountered into a new direction, beginning by studying and practicing cheung fun.

He handles the cheung fun while his wife looks after the dining room and plating. Moving from corporate work to the steamer, the couple made Cantonese cheung fun the center of the menu and kept bak kut teh as another familiar flavor.

Mixed Cheung Fun

Pork, egg, sakura shrimp, and chives are steamed inside soft rice sheets for a layered savory aroma. The house sauce is mellow and lightly sweet-savory, making this a good choice if you want several fillings in one plate.

Double-Egg Cheung Fun

Two eggs make the egg aroma more pronounced, layering a soft, full texture with the rice sheets. Egg and cheung fun absorb the sauce for gentle savoriness in every bite, suited to diners who prefer a simpler filling.

Bak Kut Teh

A Malaysian herbal blend gives the broth a deep aroma and mellow flavor, with one piece of pork rib in the bowl. It is a warm, substantial soup to pair with silky cheung fun.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP

Try the chili and XO sauce sparingly first

Cantonese chili and XO sauce both add aroma to the cheung fun. Try a small amount first, then add more to taste so the rice batter and fillings remain clear and you can notice the sauce shift from mellow savoriness to fragrant heat.

✨ AI Quick Take

Wu Ji Cheung Fun is hidden in a lane near Wumiao in Lingya District, Kaohsiung, specializing in Cantonese cheung fun steamed to order, with bak kut teh and flavored side dishes as well. The shop brings home cooking experiences the owner encountered in Southeast Asia and Guangdong; fillings can be chosen to taste, making it a useful stop for silky rice noodles and Wumiao lane snacks.

Space and atmosphere:This is a small restaurant with limited seating; around ten people nearly fills it. The couple runs it together, with the owner making cheung fun and his wife handling the dining room and plating. Many customers take food away, so check seating first if dining in at peak times.

Location and dining notes:The address is 高雄市苓雅區武廟路119巷8號, tucked into a lane near Wumiao. Cheung fun is made to order from house-ratio rice batter and needs time to steam. If you like spice, use the house Cantonese chili or XO sauce sparingly so it does not overpower the rice and fillings.

● Mixed Cheung Fun

Pork, egg, sakura shrimp, and chives give the mixed cheung fun more layered aroma. The rice sheets are soft and silky, while the lightly mellow house sauce adds savoriness without heaviness. Sakura shrimp boosts umami, and chili or XO sauce can be added for heat.

● Double-Egg Cheung Fun

Two eggs make the egg aroma more concentrated. Once steamed, egg and rice sheets form a soft, full texture and absorb the sauce for gentle savoriness, a good fit for anyone who likes egg and simpler fillings.

● Vinegared Shredded Potato

The shredded potato stays crisp-tender, with noticeable Sichuan pepper and acidity that keeps it appetizing. Its texture contrasts nicely with the silky cheung fun and refreshes the palate between bites.

● Bak Kut Teh

The bak kut teh uses a Malaysian herbal blend for a deep medicinal-herb aroma and mellow broth, with one pork rib in the bowl. Warm and substantial, it pairs naturally with soft rice noodles.

💡 Ordering note

For a first visit, choose mixed cheung fun to try pork, egg, sakura shrimp, and chives at once. Egg lovers can choose double-egg. With two people, add shredded potato and bak kut teh to share; try chili and XO sauce in small amounts before adding more.

Location:高雄市苓雅區武廟路119巷8號, in a lane near Wumiao.
Type:Fresh Cantonese cheung fun, bak kut teh, and flavored side dishes.
Recommended:Mixed cheung fun, double-egg cheung fun, vinegared shredded potato, and bak kut teh.
Highlights:House-ratio rice batter steamed to order, with Cantonese chili and XO sauce available.
Good for:People who enjoy silky rice noodles, lane-side snacks, or a simple combination of cheung fun and hot soup.

📌 Editor’s take

Wu Ji is more than a cheung fun shop: it also carries the owner’s move from traditional industry into food and his decision to bring years of overseas eating experience home. Each cheung fun is steamed to order, with clear differences between mixed fillings and double egg; add tangy shredded potato or herbal bak kut teh for a complete range of textures and temperatures.
