During our trip to Taichung a fortnight ago, we visited a beef noodle shop with a thirty-year history—‘Champion Beef King’, a place where there are long queues every day and which specialises in noodles, rice dishes, soups and braised delicacies. Their braised beef noodle soup is arguably the best in TaichungMost representative works, compared with the usual beef noodle soup,The broth has a natural flavour; it is relatively light and not greasy, with a subtle, refreshing herbal aroma.Ingredients include medicinal herbs such as angelica root and goji berries.

As for the beefThe feel of the ingredientsThe portions are quite generous，The dish features thick slices of Australian beef shank—four slices per bowl. The meat is braised until it’s thoroughly infused with flavour, and the texture isIt is tender and chewy, yet has the smooth texture of beef tendon, andPerhaps due to the subtle way in which it is cooked, the beef in this clear broth seems to have absorbed the aroma of the Chinese herbs, offering a multi-layered flavour experience with every mouthful. NoodlesAs well as the beef noodle soup, another dish worth trying is theirChilli sauce is also very well known in the Taichung area.
