"Niu" in Mandarin Chinese, means "cow". According to the Chinese zodiac, this year is the year of the cow. That said, how fitting is it that this next entry shall be about beef noodles?!? Did you know that the City of Taipei styles itself as the "World Capital of Beef Noodles"? In fact, Taipei recently started to host an annual Taipei Beef Noodles Festival... this is mayjah~!
Pictured: XO scallop fried rice (perfection. amaaaazingly flavorful...) and beef noodles at The Regent. The photo does not do this bowl of noodles justice. It was delish! The chunks of tendon (jing) melted in my mouth. And the braised egg... I didn't even get to taste it! Le cub hoovered it. Yum, yummy, yum. Not usually one to venture to fancy shmancy hotels to eat "small eats", I must give credit to my mom for this wonderful discovery.
