Menqian Yin Wei Beef Noodle Restaurant — Restaurant in New Taipei

The process of booking was difficult, but we were lucky enough to be seated at the bar inside ergo no mosquito bites or heat. We arrived early and were fortunate enough to be pushed ahead and seated immediately. The whole experience in the restaurant is quite friendly and professional. The process of becoming "usual customer" is interesting as they have a few hurdles for you to get points which work towards the possibility to gain the right to "walk in" service without any prior reservation. Now, about the main star of the day, the beef noodle soup was spicy half tendon half meat was perfectly succulent and the broth was full of flavors of varieties of legumes. We ordered the small dish of curry and the beef was just as tasty, but the meatballs with taro blew my mind as I usually don't like taro, this was delicious!

Came across this restaurant deep into my research for hidden gems in Taiwan and made reservations 1 month in advance. First of all, my flight to Taiwan was delayed and I was going to miss my booking.

The ambience was chill and relaxing sitting on the rooftop and we had such an...

Very delicious beef noodle soup! The soup base is cooked in the same pot by adding fresh ingredients. The soup today is day 686, you can taste the rich flavors and the collagen fills your mouth. Beef was very tender, carrot and radish was soft. Noodle was cooked perfectly al dente the way I like. Very hard to make a reservation I was lucky enough to have a friend who made the reservation 7 months ago. The wait may be long but the soup itself is very unique. Looking forward to the next visit to see how the soup have evolved over time.
