People flock here to do business, making the city increasingly prosperous. That is why Tainan has an outstanding diversity of culture, especially cuisine. Many dishes become specialties to attract visitors such as braised noodles in meat sauce, duck stew noodles, fried oysters and especially unique coffin bread. Coffin bread was born in 1940 by a chef named Hsu

. Initially, he called this cake "Shakaliba", transliterated in Japanese as "entertainment center" because Tainan is always a place where people come to relax and gather. However, because the bread's shape is quite similar to the coffin, it was later renamed "Gua Cai Ban", in Taiwanese "coffin". With its unique name and unique taste, the food quickly spread all over Taiwan, especially the night market area Later on, many people changed the way to order the cake, but the name "coffin" was ingrained in the minds of diners, so it returned to the original name.



Traditional coffin bread is actually a slice of crispy toast about 3 to 5 cm thick, gouged out in the middle and covered with a lid. Inside are a mixture of potatoes, diced carrots, green beans, pork liver, meat, shrimp and some other flavored vegetables, creating a smooth mixture with an irresistible taste. Today, in order for diners to have more choices, many new types of fillings such as beef and mushroom sauces and seafood have made the dish more and more richer. Some even turned the coffin bread into a Hawaiian version with bacon, onions and pineapple. In addition, sweet visitors can choose for themselves the sweet version of the coffin bread with the combination of fruits such as bananas, strawberries, mangoes, peaches .. Photo: butterfringers.
