The food tastes good, but the portion is average; you would need to add some braised dishes to feel full. The prices are a bit high, and both the chicken shreds dry noodles and the sour and spicy mixed noodles have their own特色.
The restaurant's decor is primarily in a retro military village style, creating a warm dining atmosphere that makes one feel as if they are in a military village living room.
To place an order, you need to fill out a paper menu. The stewed dishes are self-served, the service model is traditional, and only cash payments are accepted.
The Lu Guang Snack Shop is located on Dongfeng Street in the Daan District of Taipei City. The nearest MRT station is Daan Station, Exit 6, which takes about an 8-minute walk. The interior decor is styled in a retro military dependents' village theme, decorated with some old photographs and national flags. It has a very KMT vibe (?), paired with Taiwanese floral tablecloths, making it feel like dining in a dependents' village living room. The shop is equipped with round tables for 6-8 people, and there are plenty of seats, but during lunchtime, it can get crowded enough that tables need to be combined for dining.
Ordering method: Fill out the paper menu (the menu for large dishes seems to be ordered differently, displayed on the wall? Today four of us came to eat, so we ordered noodles). For braised dishes, you go to the counter to grab them, and they will be cut and served at your table. After dining, you pay the bill, which is cash only; digital payments are not accepted, and no invoices are provided.

The flavor of the dishes is quite good, the portions are average, and you would need to order additional braised dishes to feel full. The prices are slightly high, but the business is still very good, which must indicate some unique points. It’s worth a try.
