a new place to eat... 台灣美食。。。

this is a new place to eat.. oh.. not that new but still, this was my first time there though... IMG_3123.jpg IMG_3123.JPG picture by raymondlee06
i have been having cravings for beef noodles in soup... particularly those of the vietnamese style.. but seeing as my colleagues were saying that this place is not bad, i thought i'd give it a try..

the decor is not bad actually.. simple.. i think this would have been a typical decor in taiwan..
i ordered a hot beef noodles soup.. to be honest, the menu was all written in chinese with english pin yin (which serve no purpose to those who can't understand chinese in the first place.. hehehe.. i forgot to tell the lady boss about that during the impromptu survey that she did right after i had my meal = =) IMG_3117.jpg IMG_3117.JPG picture by raymondlee06 IMG_3113.jpg IMG_3113.JPG picture by raymondlee06 IMG_3121.jpg IMG_3121.JPG picture by raymondlee06
the noodles was nice.. HOT was the operative word.. i have to say the heat got to me first before the taste.. and the noodles was a tad bit soggy to my liking.. which i told the lady boss.. but i guess others might like the soft noodles.. i prefer it al-dente - please this is not italian pasta.. haha..
oh well..

the lady boss treated me to a piece of toast.. some taiwanese style toast.. not bad.. milky in taste.. i kinda enjoyed it..
also she started a conversation with me.. fact gathering i guess for the business.. through the conversation i found out the place was probably in operations since the beginning of the year and that the lady boss had beforehand stayed in taiwan.. the experience was pleasant.. i was sweating from eating the hot soup.. everything was hot in there.. but i was in an air-conditioned room.. hmm...
