Xinpu food guide | 兩津號雞肉飯 (Liang Jin Hao Ji Rou Fan): Signature Chicken Rice in Siwei Market, with memorable runny egg and scallion-oil thigh
Siwei Market in Banqiao has many local snacks. For food near 新埔站 · Xinpu or chicken rice in Banqiao, 兩津號雞肉飯 (Liang Jin Hao Ji Rou Fan) deserves attention.
The shop specializes in Signature Chicken Rice, Liang Jin Hao Bento, and sliced chicken, with another Minyou branch in Zhonghe. This is not merely shredded chicken on rice; it emphasizes chicken quality and a complete set of accompaniments.
Location and transit
The shop is inside the Siwei Road market at 新北市板橋區四維路 98-1 號, about a 3-minute walk from MRT 新埔站 · Xinpu.
Siwei Market is a typical Banqiao neighborhood area with vendors, snack shops, drink stands, and everyday shoppers. It feels more like where locals eat and shop than a tourist district.
It is an easy lunch or dinner from 新埔站 · Xinpu, without a long detour. Service is split between midday and evening, so note the break.
Setting and dining atmosphere
This market-side snack shop is simple, clean, and direct. Rather than decorate lavishly, it focuses on combining chicken, rice, and sauce.
Posters introduce the chicken source, highlighting naturally raised birds from Luye, Taitung. Whole chickens on display show attractive skin and firm meat, distinguishing the shop from ordinary chicken-rice stands.
The pace is relaxed, though nearby workers, residents, and market crowds gather at peaks. Visit slightly off-hours to reduce waiting.
Menu and ordering
The menu centers on Signature Chicken Rice, Liang Jin Hao Bento, sliced chicken, and sliced thigh. Chicken plates offer plain, Hong Kong-style scallion oil, or thirteen-spice nut-and-pepper sauce, with prices varying by item.
First-timers should begin with Signature Chicken Rice. For two or more diners, add Sliced Chicken Thigh with Hong Kong-Style Scallion Oil to compare another cut and seasoning.
When ordering Signature Chicken Rice, the counter asks how well done you want the fried egg. Regulars often choose runny, letting yolk mix with chicken fat and sauce for more fragrance.
Signature Chicken Rice
The signature bowl contains chicken, sides, and a fried egg, looking more complete and bento-like than common chicken rice.
Chicken comes in chunks under soy paste, savory with slight sweetness. The thick pieces have chew, bounce, and natural sweetness rather than falling apart.
Plump, springy rice tastes good alone with lightly savory chicken fat and soy paste. When runny yolk flows into the rice, fat, and sauce, the bowl becomes smoother and more aromatic.
The fried egg is neatly cooked with a clean aroma. Fans of runny egg over rice will appreciate how yolk coats the grains, making them moister and more memorable.
Rather than compete on cheap volume, this bowl builds a complete combination of chicken quality, rice, and sides. It feels polished enough to justify its signature status.
Sliced Chicken Thigh: Hong Kong-Style Scallion Oil
The thigh plate also merits an order. Choose plain, Hong Kong-style scallion oil, or thirteen-spice nut-and-pepper sauce, with prices depending on the item.
Scallion oil covers the thigh pieces in a more considered presentation than a typical snack-shop side. Pale glossy skin is bouncy; the firm meat remains tender, smooth, and moist.
The distinct scallion-oil aroma is nicely savory and draws out the thigh's sweetness. It is not overly greasy, bringing warm fragrance that pairs well with rice.
It differs from the chicken in the rice bowl. The rice is a complete blend of grains, fat, sauce, and yolk; the plate focuses on bouncy skin, tender thigh, and scallion oil.
With enough appetite or a companion, order both to better understand the shop's approach to chicken.
Who it suits
The shop suits those seeking food near 新埔站 · Xinpu, Banqiao chicken rice, or Siwei Market snacks. Its station-adjacent location is convenient for workers, residents, and walkers.
Fans of runny egg rice, chicken-fat rice, and sliced chicken will enjoy it. Signature Chicken Rice works solo; the thigh plate suits sharing or a fuller chicken experience.
If you expect Chiayi-style fine shreds and sweeter sauce, this is a different route. It favors chicken quality and chunky texture, like an upgraded bowl.

Closing thoughts
I remember this as a Banqiao shop that handles chicken rice with extra care. Signature Chicken Rice combines chicken, sides, and a runny egg; springy rice becomes smooth with chicken fat and sauce, and flowing yolk is the highlight.
The scallion-oil thigh is another strength: bouncy skin, tender meat, and clear fragrance without greasiness. The rice bowl is already good, but the extra plate reveals better command of chicken itself.
If you are near 新埔站 · Xinpu or Siwei Market and want convenient, polished Banqiao food, save this shop. Start with Signature Chicken Rice and a runny egg; if appetite allows, add the scallion-oil thigh for the fullest picture.
