Zhaopai Kung Fu Soul Noodles! Enjoying Dry Noodles at Taipei Shin Kong Mitsukoshi
Kungfu Noodles
TaiwanTaipei, Shin Kong Mitsukoshi
- Food Travel Log
- In Taipei, gourmet food is everywhere. At Shin Kong Mitsukoshi’s food court, I found a great dry noodle dish called "Zhaopai Gongfu Xiaohun Mian." I couldn’t read the name. The well-soaked noodles were already flavorful, but the surprise garlic-vinegar sauce at the bottom made me mix and slurp like a child. Duck blood pudding added a satisfying touch.

- "Signature Kung Fu Enchanting Noodles" is a popular dry ramen in Taiwan, where "Kung Fu" means skill or technique, reflecting the artisan craftsmanship evident in each bowl. Particularly in Taiwan, this dish features a distinctive combination of garlicky, tangy soy sauce dressing and chewy noodles. Mixing the ingredients thoroughly before eating ensures all the flavors blend beautifully, bringing out a delightful and surprising taste. Additionally, the dish often includes "duck blood," which is congealed duck blood offering a smooth texture and unique flavor. This taste is difficult to replicate, making it a must-try when visiting Taiwan. As for the author's food journey in Taipei, it seems reading Chinese characters might be a challenge. So, while enjoying the "Kung Fu" in the noodles, perhaps the author should also work on mastering the characters in their own name for the next visit!
