 HLocated very close to the DongMen/ChangRong intersection, Hutieu Vietnam offers a delicious and very inexpensive way to sample Vietnamese noodle dishes. Run by a Taiwanese-Vietnamese couple, the shop has been since the autumn. A tasty bowl of broad rice noodles with a beef/pork broth is just NT$30; the most expensive dish on the small seven-item menu, the Vietnamese Beef Noodles, is a mere NT$55. Other items available are Meatball Soup, Duck Egg Noodles in Soup, Dumplings, and the curiously named Soybean Sauce Roasted Food. The noodle dishes are filling, though their taste seems to have been slightly modified for the Taiwanese market. Those used to traditional Vietnamese fare may find them lacking in spice and body. Also, vegetarians should be warned that Hutieu Vietnam does not offer meat-free dishes. --By David Bolster, translated by Iva Huang
