C.E.O. Beef Noodles near MRT Xinyi Anhe station

We have a chance to experience another kind of beef noodles in Taipei which is the C.E.O Beef Noodles restaurant near MRT Xinyi Anhe station. The reason why we chose this restaurant is because apart from beef noodles, it also serves the traditional Taiwanese pork rice, and serveral kinds of different beef noodles such as 5-Treasures Beef Noodles, Regent President Beef Noodles,…

The flavor of this beef noodles is definitely distinguished from Yongkang Beef Noodles, the broth is not as rich, but there are many unique side dishes, increasing the flavor. In the noodle bowl, there is a half-hearted peach egg, served with vegetables, so it helps to balance those who are familiar with vegetables at the main meal. Especially, when you enter the table, you will be served vinegar wine which tastes a little bit sour like the smell of fermented apple juice. Drinking vinegar wine will increase the acidity in the intestines which causes scrapping. This increases the taste of the beef noodles ^^
