Cat Mouse Noodle

Western Taiwan


The Changhua tourist website claims that this shop's special noodle dish is one of the three culinary treasures of the city. It's a stretch, but the tangy noodles are pretty tasty. The shop has its odd name because the owner's nickname sounds like 'cat mouse' in Taiwanese – not because of anything you'll find in the food.
