THE STORY

The story behind this place

Auntie Beilan, born from a mishearing

Three young former service workers turned their shared love of food into a restaurant. At Nanjichang Night Market, someone misheard 'Auntie Meilan' as 'Auntie Beilan,' and the joke became the name. No real aunt presides; young partners run the night with gaprao rice, fried instant noodles, and Thai tea.

FIRST VISIT

First visit: how to order

01
Choose rice or stir-fried instant noodles

Choose gaprao pork rice if you want rice to catch the juices, or stir-fried instant noodles for sauce-coated strands; add a runny egg only if preferred.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Mix the runny egg into half first

Break the yolk into half the rice or noodles, leaving the other half's original spice; alternate cucumber and Thai tea for clearer changes.

✨ AI Quick Take

北蘭阿姨商行 (Bei Lan A Yi) serves Thai snacks with a tropical edge in a small, recognizable room. Gaprao pork rice, gaprao instant noodles, and Thai milk tea offer direct seasoning and noticeable heat for bold-flavor fans seeking Yonghe late-night food, takeaway, or a quick meal.

Uncle's line: This shop needs no decoration; the gaprao's aroma and heat open the appetite as soon as it arrives.
Key note: On Fuxing Street in Yonghe, the shop is an easy walk from Dingxi Station; bus riders can get off near the Zhulin Road intersection. Lane parking is difficult, so metro, bus, or scooter is easier.
● Gaprao Pork Rice

This signature combines gaprao pork, fried egg, garlic sausage, and cucumber. Salty seasoning and clear heat assert themselves immediately. Break the runny yolk into rice and sauce for a smoother bite, while lightly sour cucumber refreshes and garlic sausage adds another savory layer.

● Gaprao Stir-Fried Instant Noodles

Replacing rice with noodles creates more direct satisfaction. The familiar gaprao base clings quickly to the strands, concentrating aroma and heat. Sauce keeps the plate moist, though the noodles are soft. It remains a dependable, filling choice for bold-flavor diners.

● Thai Milk Tea

Strong fragrance and high sweetness create a spicy-then-sweet balance beside gaprao. It drinks smoothly when cold, becomes gentler as ice melts, and relieves the richness enough to complete a Thai-snack meal.

💡 A Small Note on Quality

Consider egg doneness with any gaprao order; a runny yolk adds more layers when mixed into rice. The food is bold, salty, and spicy, while Thai milk tea makes the pairing easier.

  • On Fuxing Street in Yonghe, New Taipei City, within walking distance of Dingxi Station.
  • Lane parking is inconvenient; metro, bus, or scooter is easier.
  • The small room has limited seats and often requires a wait at peaks; takeaway is common.
  • Suited to bold-flavor and Thai-spice fans seeking Yonghe late-night food or a quick meal.

📌 Editor's Summary

北蘭阿姨商行 captures the direct, efficient spirit of Thai spice rather than pursuing refinement. Its gaprao series strongly appeals to bold-flavor diners, and Thai milk tea completes a satisfying late-night snack set.
