Yusandong Wuyou Mian is an old local beef noodle shop on a back street in a busy Taipei area. It serves original beef noodles and soy-sauce beef noodles, eaten with the chili oil and pickled vegetables on the table. It opens at 8 a.m., and arriving around 7:40 to 7:50 on a weekday gets you in right away, while Saturday afternoon can mean a wait of about 30 minutes. The shop is small, so you share tables.
