Halal food in Taipei (1)
Another Halal restaurant I just visited in Taiwan, located in Taipei. Direction: From Taipei Main Station take MRT to Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall station (blue line), off to Exit 1, turn left n just go straight, u will find this restaurant at the right side of the street. Looks like a very old place, but the room inside is comfy and they have various menu with affordable price. See my other reviews on Halal food in Taiwan.

The first time I visit here, I ordered the house specialty - niurou mian (NT$140) and dumpling (NT$140/portion of 8 pieces). Niurou means beef and mian means noodles in Chinese. There are spicy and savory flavor for beef noodles. I enjoyed the spicy one. I could taste the sensation of spicy beef noodles when I had my first sip. That is, come from the oil and pepper boiled in the soup.

At the other days I visit this restaurant, I ordered the same things again and again: beef noodles and dumpling. Until one day I look around at the stranger's table next to us. And that's how I found Chinese pancakes and beef shredded on the menu. The Chinese normally paired Chinese pancakes with beef shredded and wrap them together. And yes, it's goood when you eat it that way.

Hi, I used to visit this restaurant but from someone who works in taipei mosque said this restaurant is not getting halal meat from them. Also, from another halal restaurant whose friend worked for this restaurant said they used "water-drained beef" and mix half halal beef with half non-halal beef. The 1st owner is a muslim but he sold the restaurant to a non-muslim and the workers are all non-muslims. I stopped eating there as this restaurant is not listed in taipei mosque website. So please do not visit if you are looking for true halal food
