Tamsui Agei — Restaurant in New Taipei

Personally trying it for the first time and is unsurprising that the locals love it. The rice vermicelli mixes really well with the sauces and the tofu - really flavourful. The soya milk is nice as well not too sweet. As for the fishball soup, the fishballs are really nice and could tell they are handmade. But the soup itself is pretty bland; they definitely could improve on that. Lastly, the attitude of the stall owners are pretty poor too - seems to be impatient with the customers. All in all, food is still worth a try, just don’t expect...

So simple yet so good and so much better than those lackluster Agei that you find nearer to the Tamsui MRT. This stall is much further away from the MRT, totally off the coarse of the crowded Tamsui old street and even need to hike up a steep road to get here.

And there are in fact 3 stalls in the same row selling the same thing and this stall seems to be the original stall though it was another stall that had larger crowds. Decided to go for originality and if it backfired, will head to the popular stall for 2nd round and luckily this...

Finally found a good Agei place in Taipei! It’s actually in Tamsui, New Taipei City. It bit further away from Taipei district, but it was worth traveling here for their food. I personally think their taste is better than most other places I’ve tried. The vermicelli wrapped inside the tofu and fish cake is good and not soggy at all. Goes really well with the hot sauce they put on top if it. Tamsui is also known for their fish balls so of course had to get a bowl of their fish ball soup. Overall the food was delicious and I’ll be coming...
