A Little Taste of Home

  
Hong Shao Niu Rou Mian 

This is the hong shao niu rou mian from Lee Yuan in Boulder. Hong shao niu rou mian, what could be translated as beef noodle soup, is a traditional Taiwanese dish. The dish was amazingly tasty. I frequently go back to Taiwan to visit my grandparents and relatives, and though it can not rival the hong shao niu rou mian sold in local restaurants, Lee Yuan's version of the noodle dish was extremely authentic! The beef was soft and chewy, the noodles were nice in texture, and the soup had a lot of heat and flavor. The thing I miss the most about Taiwan, besides my family of course, is the food, so being able to have a taste of it here in the U.S. makes me feel more at home : )
