According to Nick Lai of Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle, the titular dish is popular street food in Taiwan.
“However, we add in higher grade ingredients to the mix to create almost a gourmet beef noodle,” said Lai to Daily Hive. “Many other stores compromise their ingredient grade but at Chef Hung we have a strict policy for our ingredients to be only purchased at top grade and from certain vendors.”

Chef Hung began his culinary apprenticeship at the young age of 17, and throughout his 30 years of experience has developed unrivalled techniques and his own secret recipes. He is a three-time champion of the Taipei International Beef Noodle Festival Competition, and opened its flagship North American location in 2009.
“We want our guests to have quality beef and foods at our establishment,” added Lai. “Chef Hung’s four signature championship award-winning noodles have also won various rewards in Taiwan.”

“Come and get a taste of Taiwan,” Lai encouraged. “Our marinated beef wrap is also quite popular, and some patrons like to add our marinated egg into the noodles as well.”
