Taiwanese burger “Guabao” is a Taiwanese soul food made with various ingredients such as braised braised pork and mustard greens sandwiched between Taiwanese manju (the skin of a Chinese steamed bun). It has another name, “Ki-bite,” because it looks like the mouth of a biting pork, and its half-moon shape looks like a wallet, so it is considered a food that brings good luck.
■What is the origin of “Tobu no Saka”?
The name “Tobu no Saka” comes from the “to” for seaweed and the “bu” for pig, expressing our desire to provide delicious food to our customers by making an effort to climb the slope with the momentum of “fly”.

Bring out the maximum flavor of pork
Pork is a huge part of the Taiwanese diet. The same goes for Chi Bao, a Taiwanese snack. The rou ro meat used in traditional kei bao is simmered for a long time to remove as much of the pork odor as possible, and is seasoned with the aroma of soy sauce and Taiwanese spices. We strive to preserve the traditional Taiwanese method of making minced meat and provide our customers with the best pork experience. In addition to traditional minced meat, we also offer Taiwanese-style paiko and spicy black paper pork stir-fry. We would be happy if our customers could rediscover the deliciousness of pork. Collagen-rich pork skin
The difference between Taiwanese rou rou and Japanese braised pork is whether or not the pork skin is used. Generally, the skin is removed from commercially available three-stage pork belly in Japan, but Taiwanese minced meat leaves the skin on and uses its collagen and gelatin to give the minced meat its stickiness. This viscosity further traps the soy sauce aroma, and allows the eater to enjoy the unique gelatinous texture of the skin. Our minced meat retains the
deliciousness of its skin, so our customers can enjoy it thoroughly. Taiwanese hamburgers are different from American hamburgers. While American hamburgers use buns, pickles, and other toppings, Taiwanese hamburgers, called keibao, have bun-like wrappers. The fluffy and chewy texture is perfect for Asian food culture
experiences. Served with sour pickles and sweet peanut butter, each bite is satisfying.

A classic Taiwanese gourmet dish, the classic combination of “braised five pieces of meat + mustard greens + peanut powder”. The aromatic, melt-in-the-mouth five pieces of meat and the texture of coarsely ground peanuts create a perfect harmony, making this a dish that is truly THE TAIWAN.

■Background to the opening of Tobu no Saka In 2023, Mr. Chiu Bokai, who was working in the IT field, established Shokuno Chiu Co., Ltd. with a passion for Taiwanese cuisine.
“Tobu no Saka” will open in Takadanobaba in 2024.
After graduating from university in Taiwan, Mr. Chiu missed the taste of his hometown while studying abroad, so he began learning Taiwanese cuisine. After 15 years of training, I decided to change jobs for the last time before turning 40. I decided to open a store where I could deliver the taste of my own memories.
The idea is to give international students, Taiwanese residents in Japan, and Japanese people interested in Taiwanese cuisine a taste of Taiwan’s food culture.
The restaurant’s name comes from the other name for Taiwanese burger, “Kibao”. “Tobu” represents the image of Taiwanese people’s hard work and climbing uphill, and “bu” also refers to the flavor of pork.
