Wenwen

Located in the heart of Brooklyn, Wenwen is a hidden gem serving up authentic Taiwanese dishes that will transport you straight to the streets of Taipei. Chef-owner Eric Sze draws inspiration from his childhood, bringing his heritage and passion for Taiwanese cuisine to every dish he prepares.

One of the restaurant’s standout dishes is the beef fat chile oil, a flavorful and aromatic condiment that adds a spicy kick to any meal. Paired with tender slices of pork belly and juicy cuttlefish, it’s a match made in foodie heaven. But the real star of the show is the infamous BDSM chicken – a whole bird brined and deboned in soy milk, resulting in a tender, juicy, and incredibly flavorful chicken like you’ve never tasted before.

I had the pleasure of joining Chef Eric in the kitchen to learn how to prepare these signature dishes, and let me tell you, the attention to detail and dedication to quality is truly impressive. But here’s the catch – Wenwen only serves five chickens a day, so if you want to sink your teeth into this delectable dish, you better get there early!

From the warm and welcoming atmosphere to the impeccable service and mouthwatering dishes, Wenwen is a must-visit for any food lover looking to experience the true flavors of Taiwan right here in Brooklyn. Trust me, once you take your first bite, you’ll be hooked and eager to come back for more.
