[食記] JhuDong Fried Spareribs Noodle Soup/竹東排骨酥麵

Today I am going to present you ''Deep Fried Spareribs Noodle Soup'', any idea about it?? It's basically combine the deep fried spareribs and noodle soup. Deep fried the spareribs just make the meat tender, it has the different texture compare with the regular noodle soup, that's why you need to stop by and give it a try!
今天要介紹的是竹東人家喻戶曉的竹東排骨酥麵!!目前除了竹東本店外(竹東菜市場旁)，新竹市的中正路上也開了一間分店喔，想吃排骨酥麵，不用再跑去竹東啦!!

Deep Fried Spareribs Noodle Store

Here is the Menu of JhuDong Fried Spareribs Noodle Soup, they have 4 kinds of noodle, and they have the meat ball soups, dumplings, also they have the braised side dish, you can pick what you want into the plate, they will chop and hit them up for you. There is a hint, don't forget to add some chili oil on the braised food :)

 以下就是他們的菜單，除了有肉圓、飯的選擇之外，總共有四種不同的麵喔。另外也有各式各樣的滷味,喜歡吃辣的人，建議可以加辣油一起吃喔!!

Menu

There are lots of side dish that you can order, they have deep fried vegs, dried tofu, pig's ears and intestines, braised seaweeds, deep fried pork, eggs, cow's stomach. 
這裡的滷味還蠻多種的，除了滷味的部分之外，也有紅糟肉或是像以下這種蔬菜炸的天婦羅喔。

And these are what we ordered, lots of braised food as our side dish, and Spareribs Noodle Soup, Spareribs Noodle(which is with out soup), there are probably 4-5 pieces of taros and spareribs. The Taros are so soft, they can easily just melt in your soup or your mouth, gotta be careful when you pick them up with the chopsticks, and the spareribs are sweet and perfectly match with the soup and noodle. This is just like a better version of Taiwanese noodle soup!

我們那天點了有素雞、粉腸、鴨胗、豆皮，點完就這麼大一盤了!! 除了鴨胗的口感不是很合我們的意之外，其他都算尚可，還不錯，但還是建議要淋點辣油囉!! 每一碗麵裡大概都有4-5塊的芋頭和排骨，芋頭軟爛入口即化，排骨香甜跟湯麵充分的融合，跟一般的湯麵比起來，排骨酥麵的口感算是比較多重呀!!

Spareribs Noodle (no soup)

Here they provide the take out service, so if you're on a rush, you can just come here and order some noodle to take out, they will separate the noodle and soup for you, to prevent the noodle gets too soft and still have the good texture.

他們也提供外帶服務喔，外帶時會將湯和麵分開包裝，以避免麵條過於軟爛，遺失了麵條應有的口感喔!!

They have two JhuDong Fried Spareribs Noodle stores, one is in JhuDong, and the other one is this one on Zongzheng Rd in Hsinchu city.

I've been to these two couple times, I really like that one in Hsinchu city, every time I can easily finish it, 'cause it's tasty, but I don't really like the JhuDong one, I think the flavor has lots of differents, so I think I will still choose that one in Hsinchu to  have this yum spareribs noodle soup! :)

他們目前有兩家店，一家在竹東，另一家在新竹市的中正路上，我其實本身兩家都去過，但我覺得兩家店的口味不大一樣，我個人比較喜歡新竹市區這家的，因為竹東本店的麵每次總讓我覺得有點膩口，不過口味的部分就見人見志囉! :)

[食記] Fresh Taste Hotpot+BBQ Restaurant /新竹嚐鮮火鍋燒肉

The first place that I'm going to introduce is a hotpot+BBQ place on ChungHwai Street in Hsinchu.
It's name is Fresh Taste.
這是在新竹市中華路上的一家火烤兩吃，以前是烤翻天，現在改成嚐鮮了。

This is that kind of the all you can eat restaurants, you can have both hotpot and bbq or you can just choose either one. There is 2hrs time limit, and you can choose two flavors in each of the hotpots. The flavors contains 1.Spicy Hotpot 2.Seafood Hotpot 3. Japanese Miso Hotpot 4.Chinese Herbal Hotpot, and the price is down there, NT299 for hotpot only, NT399 for both.
嚐鮮是一間吃到飽餐廳，可以只選擇火鍋或是火烤兩吃，用餐時間是兩個小時，火鍋的話一鍋可以選擇兩種口味的鴛鴦鍋喔。

Before we start to get the food, we just noticed this note. I thought it was ''Please SALE the earth'',its quite funny. But they're right, don't over waste the food only because you are in all you can eat restaurant. We have only one earth! 
開始夾取食物時，一走進醬料區就發現這塊告示，遠遠看以為是什麼東西在SALE，結果走進一看才發現原來是SAVE，真是個大烏龍，這塊告示的意思就是要大家不要浪費食物，因為地球只有一個呀!!

There are many kinds of ingredients in the ingredient area, vegs, meats, seafood, noodle, sauces, also different kind of desserts. The most impressive is their sauce, they provide different kind of sauce for hotpot and bbq food, and there are five different sauces for bbq like Thai flavor, Satay, and thyme, etc... and for hotpot sauce? You can create a special sauce just by yourself!! My advise is, crack an egg into your hotpot sauce to make the meat tender.
他們的食材還蠻豐富的，蔬菜海鮮火鍋料這些不用說，是最常見的。但是他們有手工醃製的不同風味的肉類，可以吃吃看，有些還蠻不錯的喔! 另外就是他們的醬料非常多種，鮮少看見會把火鍋以及燒烤的醬分開的店家，除此之外燒烤的醬汁有泰式酸辣醬，沙嗲醬，百里香等五種醬料，由此可見店家的用心喔!

 slice chickens, pork and beef need to be ordered

What we had for the hotpot are Spicy and Chinese herbal flavors, they were quite nice, and the different flavors chicken wings also are good, I think I like beef the most!! They only served only when you order it, for fresh, and one thing you can't miss it, it's rice cake!! You have to bbq it, until it become soft or just look like that in the pic, then dip in with the condensed milk, great combination!!

我們點的是麻辣鍋併藥膳鍋，麻辣鍋有點嗆辣，喜歡辣的人可以試試看，肉品的部分還可以去現切區點喔，有牛小排，厚切牛以及雞肉。烤肉的時候最喜歡把年糕拿來烤，烤完再配上煉乳，不錯吃!!

Then speaking of the dessert, they got a  ice cream machine, you can make your ice cream or you can just go to the freezer area to get the other flavors of ice cream, also they provide cakes and chocolate waterfall.
If you're interesting in dessert, you gonna love here :)

甜點的部分，他們這裡有冰淇淋機，可以自己操作，還蠻有趣的，另外他們也提供一小盒一小盒的冰淇淋，冰棒，巧克力噴泉，蛋糕，水果，其實還蠻豐富的。 :)

After we finished this meal, we all think their service attitude are quite nice, especially they don't charge any service fee, and they're very kind, also they've paid lots of attention in everywhere. Their ingredient kinds are quite a lot actually, but still one thing needs to be improved, the qualities of the fruit are not that good, they weren't fresh that day, hope they will improve this one, 'cause I will stop by this place and have the Hotpot and BBQ again :)
這次是第一次再嚐鮮用餐，從他們的服務到肉品，飲料，等等的食材，都再再的讓我感覺的店家的用心，雖然沒有收取服務費，但卻是一直看到笑容可掬的店員，真的很不錯。
但唯有一點要再加強，水果種類的新鮮度，那天的水果是讓我下不了手的...。除了這點之外，其他都還不錯， 希望他們能夠改進囉!! 下次還是會想去嚐鮮用餐的!!! :)

A start for this blog

This is my very first time to write a blog in two languages, English and Chinese Mandarin.

I wanted to write this blog for a long long time ago,and now I can finally do this!

I will introduce lots of tasty food, restaurants even the different culture in Taiwan, and most of them will be around Hsinchu City.

If you are someone new to here, don't know where to go and where to eat.

If you're someone who wants to learn Chinese.

Just check my blog or feel free to leave your message here.

(The building in this pic is the center of Hisnchu downtown, it called ''Downing Gate'' but now we call it ''DongMeng Gate'' means the eastern gate of Hsinchu City. There were 4 gates built in 1829, but the other three were dismantled in 1902, this  pic was download from Wikipedia.)

這是第一次把網誌編寫成兩種語言。

也許有些文法可能不是那麼正確，也歡迎大家一起分享交流。

在這裡會陸陸續續放上一些，自己去用餐的經驗，或是一些其他的文章。

有任何的問題歡迎留言給我!

(照片中的建築物，如果您是新竹人應該不陌生-東門之心，東門城!!

東門城是於道光九年(1829)完工的，當時有四座城樓，但日據時代時因為實施街道改正，便於1902年拆除，只剩下東門迎曦門屹立於新竹市區。
