Met an old friend yesterday for lunch near the Zhong Xiao Fu Xing MRT station, 忠孝復興捷運站。 We happened upon this little eight-seat food stand that serves the freshest squid 小管 with rice vermicelli 米粉 in seafood broth. This is a very well-known dish in Taiwan and the long line at lunch validated its popularity. We were lucky enough to be seated. This lunch took place at the
台北市大安區忠孝東路四段頂好名店城 B1
B1 level of the Welcome Commercial Center at
Zhongxiao East Road Section 4, Daan district of Taipei City
Squid with rice vermicelli
Pan fried fish belly. Yum!!
Afterwards we visited the Sogo department store nearby and shared a citrus soufflé at Afternoon Tea, a Japanese store and food establishment. Too bad the soufflé tasted eggy- more like the Japanese steamed egg than a French dessert. Yes, we dug into the soufflé before taking the picture! You can find the menu and the uneaten dessert pictured here.
