Popular Food and Taiwanese Snacks

The Taoyuan St. noodle shop is our favorite place for Hong Sao Beef Noodles! It's been there for at least 30 years.The restaurant is so well-known that it doesn't need a sign; we just refer to it as "Tao Yuan Jieh Niu Ro Mien".

Official name, though it's not on their sign: "Lao Wang Ji Niu Ro Mien Da Wang" (Old Wang Beef Noodle King).
