臺灣餐飲老店 Long-established Restaurants in Taiwan

有「豬腳的故鄉」之稱的屏東萬巒鄉是南部客家重鎮，民風淳樸，附近有全台最古老的萬金教堂，為知名的觀光景點。在民國38年，海鴻、熊家、萬泰等現今知名的豬腳店在此地陸續開店，「林家豬腳」也是其中的一份子。

「林家豬腳」創辦人林陳玉妹嫁至林家後，為了貼補家用，在萬巒鄉的路邊擺攤賣客家粄條等麵食，某天她忽然興起將豬腳做為配菜的念頭，決定先滷兩隻試試水溫，這個臨時起意的舉動竟造成大轟動，在那個吃豬肉是奢侈行為的年代，林陳玉妹的豬腳第一天賣兩隻、第二天賣四隻，販售數量以倍數成長，慢慢打響名號，遂將豬腳變成主打商品，民國70年，與全家便利商店合作，推出豬腳便當，更是一炮而紅。

「林家豬腳」好吃的秘訣在於核心的滷包，中藥配方這六十幾年來不曾換過；豬腳則嚴選具有CAS認證的豬前腿，肉質較紮實Q彈。逢年過節，一天要滷四、五千隻豬腳是司空見慣之事，尤其是到了孤鸞年，依照習俗出嫁的女兒要帶豬腳回娘家，這天店裡必定忙得不可開交。

Wanluan Township in Pingtung is known as the “hometown of pig’s feet”, and it is the hub of the Hakka population in southern Taiwan, where the people are simple, honest, and down-to-earth. Immaculate Conception Minor Basilica is not only the oldest church in Taiwan but also a renowned tourist destination. In 1949, now prominent pig’s feet restaurants such as Haihong, Xiongjia and Wantai all opened business here, including Lin Family’s Pig’s Feet.

After marrying her husband Lin, the founder of Lin Family’s Pig’s Feet Yu-Mei Lin Chen setup a roadside stall to sell Hakka Bantiao (Rice Noodle) in Wanluan Township in order to increase family income. One day, she had an epiphany about serving pig’s feet as a side dish, therefore she decided to braise two pig’s feet to test the market; to her surprise, her idea took the market by storm. At the time, eating pork was considered a luxury, and she managed to sell 2 pig’s feet in the first day and 4 the following day, the number grew exponentially and her reputation was gradually established. As a result, pig’s feet became a mainstay product. In 1981, she collaborated with FamilyMart to launch the pig’s feet lunch box, which became an instant sensation.  

日本美食節目中，只要打出「漁人料理」幾個字，往往會引來來賓和觀眾瘋狂驚呼。因為這代表內行中的內行、有錢未必吃得到。東港就有一家餐廳，由船長當主廚，所有食材不僅是當天捕獲的「現撈仔」，還經過漁人嚴選直送。到底有什麼奧秘，可以每天都有最頂級的海鮮？

佳珍海產老闆蕭受發綽號「落腳仔」，是南臺灣出了名的toro船長，長年海風烈日下，皮膚像黑鮪魚般閃亮，小學畢業便開始「討海」，直到1992年關島遭遇颱風沉船才思考轉型，向臺東開餐廳的舅舅取經。

來到屏東，自然不容錯過萬巒獨具特色的豬腳；如果您是一家子，攜老扶幼一同出遊，那麼更別錯過到大人物餐廳飽食一番。

大人物自1991年開業以來，一直是當地人宴請親友的指定名店。老闆林忠飛原在臺塑上班，後來在台北自行創業，直到父親生病，才舉家遷返萬巒。他開始研究健康養身紅麴，後來利用街上的老屋經營「大人物餐廳」。
