TWN: Ay-Chung Flour-Rice Noodle (阿宗麵線)

Legendary mee sua with pork intestine!

Ay-chung mee sua (Chinese thin noodle made of wheat flour) has been an icon in Ximending since 1975, serving but just one dish which has made most, if not all, people go crazy.


You'll always see a queue whenever you patronise the humble shop. If there's no queue, it means that they've got no more stock for the day. Haha...


Pork Intestine Mee Sua (Large) NT$60.00 (~S$2.50)
Taste: 8.5/10

Definitely a must-try in Taipei, that bowl of warm mee sua (Chinese thin noodle made of wheat flour) coupled with the fiery chili truly warmed my soul. The slimy, silky and slippery noodle was swimming in a thick broth which was packed with flavours and garlicky as well. The chewy large intestines were properly cleaned so they didn't have any foul smell.

Melon's Rating
Taste: 8.5/10

I know for sure that I want to get a bowl or two whenever I go to Taipei. Pika's advice: You can buy a jar of their chili if you like it very much!

Delicious Indonesian 'nasi uduk' with chili prawns! The middle of this year saw me doing a long-haul flight in the Premium Economy Class cabin of Singapore Airlines' Airbus 350-900 aircraft for the first time. In fact, it was also my first time flying directly to Istanbul, Turkey from Singapore. In general, I enjoyed the two meal services: supper and breakfast.

Not wow-ed by its beef burgers though... Born in Germany, Hans im Glück (lit. Hans in Luck) is a burger chain named after a fairytale recorded by the Brothers Grimm. Known for its forest-inspired decor, the outlets create a cozy, rustic atmosphere. Here in Singapore, it's been rebranded as SERVUS German Burger Grill and it can be found at VivoCity.

Tasty beef lasagna by Brahim's Food Services, but no more... After so long, I finally managed to have a family trip again in December 2022 with Japan as the destination. Unfortunately, just like the last part of my Azerbaijan travel series, I've lost all photos during this trip, save for the ones that I managed to post to my Instagram feed. Let's take a look at what I had onboard Malaysia Airlines MH52 from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia to Osaka, Japan.
