Su Tien Chu Vegetarian Noodle

It's nothing special really. Even though it gets recommended by the tourist maps, this place does less then other resraurants in this area. Anyway it's good to know, where to find veggie food.

Out of a handful of ingredients, a friendly family prepares four simple, closely-related dishes: bamboo sprouts in clear sour broth, sticky rice topped with bean paste, noodle soup with bean sprouts/bamboo sprouts/seitan (the broth is the same as the one used for the bamboo soup), and finally the same noodle dish but in "dry" version, topped with some bean paste. The noodle dishes are my favorites, especially the noodle soup. Portions are small (order two dishes, like a noodle dish and the bamboo soup), but it's cheap (all cost TWD40, except the bamboo soup which is 30). Don't expect anything fancy or memorable. Still, it's tasty, and those who like simple, down-to-earth eateries with a local flavor will enjoy it. And why complain when another veg option is available anyway? It's semi-open, so you can enjoy the fresh air after a hot day. Their chili oil sauce (the one in the glass jars) packs a punch - don't put too much, especially in the soup!!! Evenings only, and I think they are closed on Wednesdays.
