Worth a stop if nearby

“The instant-noodle pork soup is an easy-to-recognize signature, pairing familiar instant noodles with a lightly thickened pork soup. Three generations of family operation, a Caoya breakfast-and-brunch routine, dry noodles and varied braised sides make this more than an ordinary bowl of noodles.”

WHY VISIT

Why add it to your itinerary?

01
Instant noodles give pork soup another texture

Instant noodles soak up the gently sweet, lightly thickened pork soup and pair with firm pork strips; cilantro and pepper add aroma without making it heavy.

02
Three generations continue the family noodle shop

The business passed from grandmother to father and then daughter, keeping the family’s pork soup and noodle tradition alive. Start with one staple and a plate of braised sides to taste a Caoya neighborhood meal.

03
One plate of braised sides, several textures

Tofu, pig ear, braised egg, intestine, kelp and pork skin are cut, warmed in braising liquid, topped with soy paste and scallion. Firm, crisp, springy and soft textures alternate nicely with the noodles.

THE STORY

The story behind this place

From grandmother to daughter, one family’s pork-soup craft

This unnamed pork-thick-soup noodle shop on Kangding Road passed from grandmother to father and then to daughter, with roughly half a century of family operation. What has endured is a gently sweet soup and filling noodles.

Dry noodles, clear thick soup and braised sides form a familiar neighborhood breakfast or brunch, while instant noodles add a soft, springy twist to the traditional soup. One table holds both the family flavor and a little choice in the staple.

FIRST VISIT

First visit: how to order

01
Choose soup noodles or dry noodles first

If you only want one bowl, pick instant noodles in thickened pork soup for a smooth, soupy bite, or dry noodles for fried shallot and minced-pork aroma. For two, choose one staple each and share braised sides.

02
Allow extra time at peak hours

Both dine-in and takeaway can get busy. Decide on your noodles and braised sides before ordering so it is easier to order clearly.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Add black vinegar and chili powder in stages

Taste the original soup first, then add small amounts of black vinegar or chili powder to compare the tart and spicy notes. Save the garlic sauce for later so it does not cover the soup and noodles from the start.

✨ AI Quick Take

新草衙古早味老店_無名肉羹麵店 sits on Kangding Road in Kaohsiung’s Qianzhen area, known locally for gently sweet pork-thick soup, dry noodles and plates of braised sides.

● Instant noodles in pork thick soup

This dish puts familiar instant noodles into traditional pork-thick soup. The broth is only lightly thickened, smooth and fragrant without feeling heavy, while the pork strips are firm and tender. The noodles turn soft and springy as they absorb the soup. Cilantro and pepper add aroma; black vinegar brightens it, while chili powder adds heat.
