台北-麻膳堂-Taipei- "Ma Shan Tang"-10 April 11

Queuing up around 20mins..but worth it..
We ordered 4dishes and sharing for 3people (Ciao, Cing2, Anne)..
Their Fried Rice seem very nice...


"Za Jiang Mian" (1st right side)
A little bit too light to me...but not bad at all

 "Qing Zheng Nio Rou Mian" (2nd right side)

The soup was light but quite rich.. Noodles were chewy..love it
The Beef was chunky, tender, soft.  


"Ma La Nio Rou Mian" (3rd right side)
It is good coz you can order the spicy level based on your requirement.
We ate "Med" and quite spicy for Cing2 but not for me.......
The beef was cut slicely...not chunky as Qing Zheng.


"Jian Jiao"  (2nd left side)
Juicy, Rich but not crispy enough..
