Yesterday I tried a real Taiwanese tradition for the first time: beef noodles. Shockingly enough, they are about as simple as they sound. Its beef and noodles in a spicy soup broth that is eaten with chopsticks and a soup spoon. Quite delicious if you ask me.
Only complaint was that the beef seemed to have a good amount of fat on it, but it was easy enough to eat around. As I finished the rest, my friend Ben told me that it wasn't fat. It was tendon. Apparently, that's considered the most tender and delicious part of the meat here.
As I stared at my bowl of leftover tendons and my empty glass of mango juice, I decided to take a pass this time. I mean, you can't eat tendons without mango juice to wash it down. That's just not right.
Btw, the beef noodle place was in the mall where I took the Pikachu picture. He's good people.

After you try tendon next time, you gotta get marrow. THAT is some good stuff.
