A brief review:
The old brand cold noodles on Wuxing Street in Taipei is said to be among the top five in Taipei. I think that might be a bit overrated, but it has all the qualities you expect from good cold noodles: a simple menu and a few items. Perfecting a craft usually looks something like this:
There are only two types of cold noodles: fried sauce cold noodles and regular cold noodles.
The fried sauce cold noodles come with minced meat, fermented bean paste, and sesame sauce;
The regular cold noodles only have sesame sauce, and the portions are large, medium, and small.
The soups include meatballs, egg drop, and miso soup, with a combo that includes all three being the mixed soup.
This time, I ordered a large portion of sesame sauce cold noodles. I felt like it was missing some flavor, so I borrowed some chili and vinegar from the next table and found the deliciousness increased significantly; this sauce must be added!!
The noodles are considered on the chewier side of oily noodles. Although they are usually stored at room temperature, the day was quite warm, making them fairly refreshing. However, if the noodles could be served at a slightly lower temperature, they would definitely taste even better.
There’s nothing to nitpick about the sesame sauce. The sesame paste is rich but not greasy, not too salty or overly flavored with MSG, quite standard.
The mixed soup is excellent! The meatballs are firm and chewy, the tofu soft and fragrant, breaking apart easily with pressure from the tongue. The egg drop is clearly made with whole eggs, very authentic!
Minor complaint:
Not every table has the necessary supplies (utensils, tissues, condiments), and often I had to trouble others for them. However, there are few tables in the small shop, so I can only tolerate and make do.
