Reviews
Rice noodles are a type of food that is very characteristic of the Longgang area in Taoyuan, as the residents mostly descend from the Thai-Myanmar isolated military groups. These individuals retreated from Yunnan Province to the Thai-Myanmar border during the Chinese Civil War. Thus, the cuisine is primarily based on the recipes from Yunnan and Myanmar.
Among them, the most famous dish is undoubtedly the rice noodles. Its highlight is primarily in the broth, which is a rich chicken soup simmered for over six hours, somewhat resembling a chicken white soup, making it very sweet and not dry in the mouth. The rice noodles themselves are quite similar to the "mian xian" (vermicelli) in Taiwan, and they seem to have a bit of saltiness as well. Another recommended side dish is the pea flour, which resembles a cold noodle dish, and is very refreshing to eat when the weather is hot.
Overall, dining here offers a touch of exoticism, which I personally quite enjoy, and I believe this is a must-try dish for anyone visiting the military dependents' village in Taoyuan.
