📍Location: Taichung. North District
A small noodle shop selling Chongqing-style food in an alley.
I’m not sure how authentic it is since I haven’t been to Chongqing,
but I personally think the flavors are good, though the service could use some improvement.

At that time, there were 2 employees in the shop; no one was specifically manning the counter. One was focused on preparing dishes, while the other handled the cash register and meal preparation.

This time, I ordered:
Spicy Boiled Tender Beef / Yuxiang Mixed Noodles $188
Originally, I wanted to add a small side dish, but the one I wanted was already sold out. 🥲

However, $188 is already in a set meal format, and I felt the portion was quite satisfying, roughly “just right” in size.

Upon entering, I saw the place full of customers. Fortunately, as a single diner, I was able to find a spot in a corner.
After placing my order, I looked around and realized something was off—there were many people, but no one had their dishes served. Everyone was still waiting for their food!
Although the shop emphasizes freshly made dishes upon ordering, I must say... I feel the service is still quite slow. It took over 30 minutes from the time I sat down until my dishes arrived. At that point, it was already late dinner time, and no more customers were coming in, yet none of the tables seemed to be getting their dishes quickly.

Still, I was quite satisfied with the flavors. If I'm not in a hurry, I would be willing to give it another chance!
See photos below for more details on the taste and dishes 👀!

The boiled beef is not extremely spicy, with a slight chili fragrance. It feels like a generous portion, with about 8 slices of beef.

The meal includes soup and a fried egg.

There are also 2 more side dishes! Although they are all small dishes in shallow plates, I think they are quite a lot! If I could order a larger portion separately, I would definitely be willing to do so!

The whole set looks like this~ $188 I think is acceptable.

The beef is very tender and becomes more delicious the more you chew it.

The noodles are cooked just right, very chewy, and not easily broken. (However, there is quite a bit of soup, so if soaked for too long, they might still get mushy!)

In the self-service area, if you feel it's not spicy enough, you can add more yourself. Speaking of this, I think there’s a downside! They sell dishes that are on the spicier side, but there’s no water available here. 🥲

In the kitchen area, one person is focused on cooking noodles while the other is responsible for handling the cash register and preparing ingredients.

The environment is quite neat and clean (this is also the inside of the kitchen, which can be seen from outside).

The sign at the entrance is quite humorous.

The bulletin board at the entrance This place also has non-spicy options, but most are spicy.

The store isn't very big; this was taken from the entrance. Right behind the counter is the kitchen, so the dining area is small, with about two four-person tables and a facing-the-wall area.
