A-Lung Lu Wei Yi Mian Introduction
"Ah Lung Yi Mian" was founded by Lin Yu-ti and his wife Lin Wu-jin-yu over forty years ago in Yan Shui, where they learned the craft of making Yi Mian from a Fuzhou master, Cai Shi. Their reputation grew in the Yan Shui and Shan Hua areas. More than twenty years ago, they moved to Tainan, where they gained great popularity among the locals. The current owner is the second generation, Lin Han-long, who grew up under the influence of his father's work. He has taken on the family business and introduced a variety of vegetable-flavored Yi Mian, including red radish noodles, green spinach noodles, and burdock noodles, with many new flavors developed that are well-loved. The standout feature is their homemade Yi Mian, which is not sold externally and emphasizes quality, maintaining a certain level of freshness. The broth is made from lean meat, with a light flavor that is easy to enjoy, and contains a moderate amount of MSG. Consequently, the restaurant sees more customers at night than during the day. The braised dishes are also homemade, offering a sweet aroma without greasiness.
