This place was opened quite some time ago, but I had yet to visit it till recently. They serve simple Taiwanese cuisine - rice/noodles topped with different Taiwanese-style elements such as fried pork chop, slow-cooked pork belly or braised pork trotters. You can customise your own food.It is very easy to spot, because there is a very eye-catching signboard with light bulbs surrounding it.

It is very easy to spot, because there is a very eye-catching signboard with light bulbs surrounding it. The interior of the shop is very retro, with mosaic tiled floor and different vintage decorations on the wall. It is a great place if you want to have a quick lunch in Causeway Bay. Food is not extraordinary delicious, but it is definitely filling, and heart-warming.
I ordered this bowl of thick noodles topped with fried pork chop (slow-cooked pork belly sauce). I was pretty surprised to find out that the type of noodles served here was similar to the one that I could get in my hometown, that is meepok. To me, the noodles were cooked al dente. However, it would be better to have more flavor to it, perhaps some fried shallots? The sauce that tied the whole dish together had a ginger taste to it, which was good for winter, but was not my favourite. I guessed it was not salty enough, and I expected more fragrance from the sauce. Pork chop was given in a generous amount. It would be better if the batter is thinner and crispier nevertheless. I wouldn't complain much because it filled up my tummy satisfactorily with a very reasonable price tag.
