Zheng Family Beef Noodles Restaurant *66, YongTai Rd., LingYa, Kaohsiung City *(07) 331-1923 *Hours: 10:30 am-2 pm; 4:30 pm-10 pm

Opened on January 7 this year by folk who are originally from Hong Kong but have long resided in Taiwan, Zheng Family Beef Noodles is a small (more than a dozen guests and it would feel pretty crowded) and immaculately clean eatery between SzWei 4th Road and the end of LingYa 2nd Road. As you would expect from the name, the dishes here are beef-oriented, with soup, noodle, and "ban-mian" (thicker green noodles) options, all NT$60 to NT$100. If beef is not your preference, there are a couple of pork dishes, both priced at NT$60. Side dishes (vegetables, tofu, pickles) are NT$20 each. Although it's not so close to any of Kaohsiung's major shopping zones, if you are heading to Kaohsiung Christian Hospital, or simply looking for inexpensive, down-to-earth, but very tasty cooking, this is a place to try. --By Steven Crook, translated by Iva Huang
