A Chowhound recommended I try this dish, and it's so tasty! Classic Hong Kong style vegetable/ham chowder, mounded into a buttery hollowed out piece of thick-sliced Chinese toast. It's creative, hearty, and delicious.
The rest of the menu will be more familiar to lovers of Taiwanese casual dining: sausages, cold platters of pressed tofu and marinated seaweed, fried tofu, pork chop rice, beef noodle soup, oyster pancakes, shaved ice, mango ice, fun drinks, and literally a hundred or more other choices.

I've been wanting to try this place.
Now I have to go try this dish!
This dish is called "coffin board" in Chinese.
It's a famous dish from Tainan, Taiwan.

Haha, fun name. The name in English is cream soup in toast, and it's listed in the "snacks" section. Enjoy!

or... instead of being so ready to post a comment and ask a question, maybe I should read this post's title, huh?
it's like when teachers tell you to read the directions before you take the test...
