BEEF NOODLES Food No. 15 Taoyuan St. (MRT Ximen Station Exit 3) I prefer the "hong sao" kind (soy sauce & spices), but some think it's too rich and heavy and prefer "ching dun" (clear broth). Ever tried the "fen jen pai gu" (steamed spare ribs w/ potato)? Directions: Starting from Ximending Circle, walk down Heng Yang Rd. (heading away from Ximending); turn right on Tao Yuan St., and the 2-story noodle shop will be on your left. You'll recognize it by the men tending to the vats of soup cooking right by the sidewalk. From Ximending Circle to Tao Yuan St. it's only a 3~4-min. walk, and Tao Yuan St. is very short, so the shop is hard to miss. The restaurant is so well-known that it doesn't need a sign; we just refer to it as "Tao Yuan Jieh Niu Ro Mien". Official name, though it's not on their sign: "Lao Wang Ji Niu Ro Mien Da Wang" (Old Wang Beef Noodle King).

CORRECTION on directions to TAOYUAN ST. BEEF NOODLES!! From MRT Ximen Exit 4, walk eastward on Hengyang Rd. and turn right onto Taoyuan St. (If starting from MRT Ximen Exit 3, walk eastward on Baoqing Rd. and turn left onto Taoyuan St.) Taoyuan St. Beef Noodles is closed every second Sunday of the month.

Fireball 1611: "Jinyuan Pai Gu (Wuchang St. location) is not easy to find. Nobody seems to know when I asked so I spent quite a while looking for it. My advice is once you exit from the MRT, walk around the exit and along the main road to Wuchang St. YOu should pass a KTV along the way. From Wuchang, walk straight down until you see a big Watson at the corner of a building on your right. Continue walking straight and you will cross a road. FROM THIS POINT ONWARDS TAKE NOTE!! Continue walking forward but keep a lookout for the small alleys on your left. Jinyuan is located in along an alley where there's a carpark building at the end. The shop sign is quite difficult to spot so watch out for it. It closes at 9pm. But given the food, it was very worth the effort!"
