Torafuku has launched a heartfelt collection of new heat-and-serve meals that are steeped in tradition and scream comfort.
The line includes restaurant favourites like the Beef Noodle Soup and traditional Taiwanese dishes – such as an Ugly Zongi a bamboo leaf wrapped glutinous rice dumpling, brimming with mushrooms and marinated pork shoulder.
Torafuku meal packages and a la carte items
Customers may shop both a line of meal packages and a la carte items, all at an exceptional value. Meal packages are designed to feed two or four people and are priced at $39 and $89, respectively.
Shoppers may opt for Mama Kuan’s Kitchen – a package of authentic Taiwanese favourites, or choose from packages that inventively infuse other international techniques.
Highlights from the various packages include a homey Miso Awesome Veggie Chowder, the much-loved Everyday I’m Brusselin’ salad, Sake Braised Beef Shank and Gone Fishing – a whole fried fish with tamarind sweet sour sauce.

Regular patrons have long flocked to Torafuku for its Beef Noodle Soup, a comforting soup of tender sake-braised beef shank in a deeply savoury and soulful broth.
Now one of Vancouver’s top comfort dishes can be enjoyed in the home – Kuan’s Beef Noodle Soup Kit ($28) serves two and is complete with marinated soft-boiled egg, pickled cabbage and cilantro.
Old GrandMa’s Tofu ($13) is a new addition; it’s a hearty dish of mapo tofu and minced pork.
Perhaps the most sentimental item available is the Ugly Zongzi, a bamboo leaf wrapped glutinous rice dumpling, brimming with mushrooms and marinated pork shoulder.
Ugly Zongzi ($8 for two) is a special feature and will only be available for a limited time; however, these homey treats can be frozen and reheated later.
