Taiwan Café
34 Oxford St., Boston, (617) 426-8181.This Chinatown jewel features home-style cooking you don't usually see on the English-language menu, and doesn't make any of the familiar tourist dishes. It's quite friendly to non-Asian customers who know and appreciate the food. Get to know the sauteed eggplant with basil, or some of the best steamed flounder and sauteed snow-pea tendrils ever. Full review.
Price range for entrées: $5 - $19.
