For "brunch" served from 11:00 to 5:00, "crispy pig oatmeal" is a French presentation of Hong Kong-style roast meat familiar to Taiwanese, while replacing Italian-style stew with healthy, high-fiber and low-calorie oatmeal. The pork with skin is cooked at a low temperature and then slowly fried until the skin is crispy, Lin Tingyou said, which is to show the taste of Hong Kong-style crispy meat, so that breakfast oatmeal is no longer boring.
