Slight overpriced, but the beef was nice @ 台灣牛肉麵

I don’t usually eat beef, but the beef broth here looks strong and also they serve the new bamboo rice vermicelli.

Went during the public holidays and a tiny dish of peanuts was placed on the table, the first sentence the waitress greeted was “It is the holidays so they are compulsory”

Ordered beef shin with new bamboo rice vermicelli, and the other one with the standard noodles.

The other one arrived first, and the noodles for that were similar to Udon, but thinner, the texture was slightly al dente.
Later the beef shin noodles arrived, and with it came another dish with pickled vegetables, however they should of came with the first bowl of noodles as well.

The pickled vegetables were nice, chopped up too finely, however the portion was minuscule.

Overall the noodles were ok, the broth wasn’t as strong as I expected, but the beef was good considering I generally don’t order beef.
The beef shin had interesting layers, it was like eating layers of tender beef and tendon sandwiched together. The gelatinous looking stuff was not chewy either.

Since the soup wasn’t that strong, the noodles tasted a bit bland.

For Kowloon city, I felt that the noodles were slightly overpriced and the portions could have been bigger.
