A-Jun's Braised Noodles Introduction
In the past, braised noodles were primarily shared by Min Nan people during weddings and birthdays as a way to foster celebration with neighbors. By distributing braised noodles, the festive atmosphere was shared, and once neighbors finished their meal, they returned small gifts along with the bowls to the host family. This not only conveyed blessings to the host but also reinforced the intent of reciprocity. As a result, braised noodles earned the charming title of “celebratory dish.” Even a seemingly ordinary bowl of braised noodles carries hidden stories that reflect the wisdom of our ancestors. Today, at "A Jun's Braised Noodles," located directly across from the first-class historic site Chihkan Tower, traditional methods are used to prepare braised noodles. While sharing the story of braised noodles, diners are still able to enjoy the fragrant, chewy, and smooth noodles. A bowl that seems simple actually contains ingredients like cabbage, radish, enoki mushrooms, wood ear mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, pork slices, and fish paste.
