Tamsui District, New Taipei City｜清水街阿給

For all the expats + people passing through Tamsui you should come here to eat the popular local dish called Agi It's clear noodles stuffed inside tofu placed on top of a red sweet and sour sauce/soup. You eat it by cutting your chop sticks through the tofu and mixing it together with the sauce. Then you eat it like you would normal noodles. I have had this dish all over this area and this is my favorite flavor + the owner is so helpful if you are not fluent in Chinese. Stores with dishes like this are kind of hard to order at because Agi doesn't have a direct translation. Even though there is a menu its hard to know what they sell. They do not have an English menu but one of the owners spoke perfect English

Food "a-gei" tasted great, fresh and hot! A very low-key local restaurant that's been opened for decades. The interior feels a bit run-down but most down-to-earth local places are too. A big plus for providing re-usable utensils.
