by Emma Davey A small storefront in Williamsburg just opened with a menu of Taiwanese classics.
Egg & Soy (296 Bedford Ave.) replaces a short-lived cafe and concept store called Partea XP, also Taiwanese.
The menu is fairly slim, offering fàntuán (a stuffed rice roll), dànbǐng (egg crepe), and luóbo gāo (turnip cake), as well as egg and cucumber sandwiches that can be prepared with various fillings. They also sell pastries, soy milk, coffee, and tea.
