水仙宮古早味鍋燒麵

Today I came to the West Central District of Tainan to look for good food. I originally planned to eat at a beef soup place, but unfortunately, they had sold out by the time I got there. Before leaving, I noticed that a nearby restaurant was doing very well, so I decided to check it out. It turned out to be a place selling hot pot noodles. Since the business was thriving, I thought I’d give it a try. The restaurant isn't big and doesn’t have many seats, but it has air conditioning inside. They serve hot pot noodles and fried items.

I ordered the kimchi hot pot noodles for 90 NTD. The price is not expensive, and there are plenty of ingredients, including vegetables, green onions, an egg, kimchi, and fish cake. The most special part is that it also comes with a fried shrimp and fried fish slices, along with some fried gluten. The fried shrimp and fish are already peeled, coated in batter, and placed directly into the noodles. The outer skin is sweet, firm, and tasty, while the fried gluten tastes like Chinese crullers. After soaking in the soup, it absorbs the broth and tastes quite unique.

The broth is slightly sweet but has the sweetness of seafood, and it's very delicious—my bowl was empty by the end. Overall, it’s a nice surprise to find such a good hot pot noodle restaurant.
