胖胖干贝烧 - Torched Scallops @ Yizhong Market, Taichung in Taiwan

I usually resist from having seafood like squid and scallops at night markets given the higher risk of food poisoning but I can't stop myself from moving towards the above stall, as the aroma w

as just so irresistible! 

Looking plump and juicy, and the fact that it wasn't starch heavy like rice, bread, noodles; I decided to splurge on a stick of scallops, with a sincere prayer that my stomach shall turn into a tummy of steel.

With three flavors to choose from, original, salt and cheese; I guess it's a no brainer that given the same price, it would always feel more "worth" to go with cheese. 

Smeared with two types of cheese and torched into a melty consistency, this had all the natural, seafood flavour of scallops, and honestly; I was expecting a cheesier flavour. Good as it was, but don't expect the experience to be spectacular.
