May 3rd 2018, I went back to my old workplace on Burnaby Mountain to visit my co-workers. We had a nice lunch at Chef Hung Taiwanese Beef Noodle House together.

Chef Hung is a Taiwanese Beef Noodle Restaurant. It’s famous for their signature noodle soup. It’s very tasty and authentic It has five locations in the Great Vancouver area. I always went to its first location Aberdeen Center in Richmond, BC long times ago. Last year, Chef Hung opened its fifth location at Simon Fraser University, which was very convenient to all students there. When It just opened, it was a huge lineup everyday. It has been opened about the year. It was getting better, but it’s still very busy. I think it’s because of the small environment.

My friends and I, four of us, got to the restaurant around 12:30 pm. Inside the restaurant was busy. But, we were lucky. There was only one four-seat table left. We were very fast gotta the table and began to take a look at the menu.

Two of my friends ordered Seasonal Vegetable with Noodle in the Beef soup, Me and another friend had award-winning beef shank, tendon & trip with noodle soup. We all choose the flat noodles for our noodle bowls. Besides noodles, We also ordered Cold Mixed Kelp to share. All the food came out the kitchen fast and fresh. The soup was very hot and tasty. I love my award-winning beef shank, tendon & trip with noodle soup. All the beef in my soup were super soft and had special flavors. The cold mixed kelp was one of my favorite dishes at Chef Hung, but it was a very small portion. It was cold with unique Chinese Style flavor: Sweet and Sour, which made me couldn’t stop eating it. I love its taste so much.

In summary, we had a nice experience eating at Chef Hung.

I found the soup to have a more bolder taste compared to the Aberdeen one. Beef is very good here, more tender than Aberdeen's. However, they tend to cook their noodles too firm and it's not the same handmade noodle as the Aberdeen location; I ask them to cook it softer and it came out just right. I also noticed quite a few people only eat the beef and soup without eating their noodles. Also a bit annoying there aren't many single-person seats so if you go by yourself you'll have to sit with another person. 

On my last visit the person sitting across from me noticed a fly in their soup and the manager was alerted to the problem and offered to make a new one... These things happen but it is very discouraging!
