Tired of eating beef noodle in Taiwan, have you tried the popular cold noodle in Taiwan? Today, we will introduce a cheap, delicious Taiwanese cold noodle with peanut sauce. It is very common to find cold noodle in Taiwan's convenient stores and local restaurants. The restaurant we visited today is called 高家涼麵.

The price is very reasonable, ranging from $40 NTD to $60NTD per plate. It is served throughout the year, but it is most widely eaten during summer time. Since it is noodle with only vegetable and sauce, it is very common for people to order side dishes along with it.

There are total six tables inside with a capacity of maximum 30 customers. During this visit, because it was raining at night, there were only 5 or 6 other customers in the store.

This is the menu/order sheet you can find on the right side of the entrance.
Since all the items are written in Chinese, we will translate the one we ordered into English for you.
1. Chinese cold noodle with peanut sauce 涼麵 (with garlic sauce, peanut sauce, cucumber) (you can also add some vinegar sauce, chili sauce on your own at the table)

2. Miso Soup with meat balls 味噌貢丸湯 (included tofu, green onion, and port meatballs -- similar to Japanese miso soup)

3. Marinated Tofu/Egg 油豆腐／滷蛋 (Marinated with soy sauce)

This very fulfilling dinner meal for 2 people was $190NTD, which is very cheap compared to many regular restaurants near the same station (SOGO station). The environment and service might not be exceptional, but the food is very local and authentic, like any other local restaurants.

this is the business card of the store. Wish you guys enjoy the local food here!
