I had this at the Din Tai Fung in Taipei 101.. Seriously incredible. Thank you so much.

One of my favorite dish in summer.

Just tried this. It's delicious, of course, and should help to overcome any misgivings you might have about wood ear fungus. Black vinegar is an important part of the overall flavour. I had a very lacklustre start to my day, and now I feel terrific.

You get it. Black vinegar is quite important. Sometimes, we use the liquid from pickling jar.
