THE STORY

The story behind this place

Two snacks carried on since 1968

朱記花枝羹 · Zhu Ji Hua Zhi Geng was founded in 1968 and continues serving just cuttlefish thick soup and fried rice vermicelli under the arcade on Zhengyi North Road. Hot soup and vermicelli have defined this simple stall for years; eating at the semi-open seats also reveals Sanchong's street-side rhythm.

Cuttlefish Thick Soup

Thick cuttlefish is lightly wrapped in fish paste, moving from soft and smooth to the seafood's crisp bounce. Radish gives the soup gentle sweetness, fried garlic adds fragrance, and the texture stays light. Ideal for those wanting true cuttlefish texture with hot soup.

Fried Rice Vermicelli MetroBites visit photo

Fried Rice Vermicelli

Fine vermicelli is steamed moist and soft, with crisp bean sprouts and a special vinegar-garlic sauce bringing sweet-tart flavor and fragrance. Never dry or hard, it has more layers than its appearance suggests. Alternate it with the clear, sweet soup.

A TASTE OF TAIWAN

One soup and one dry dish under the arcade

Cuttlefish thick soup with fried rice vermicelli is a direct taste of Sanchong street food. Silky soup contrasts with soft, fine noodles; a dry dish and hot soup form a meal while preserving the stall's concise way of eating.

FIRST VISIT

First visit: how to order

01
Queue to order, then follow seating directions

There are few seats under the arcade and tables may be shared when busy. Ask staff about dining and seating arrangements before sitting as directed.

02
One soup and one dry dish make portions easy

Order cuttlefish thick soup with fried rice vermicelli to try both; for just a little hot food, choose one according to appetite.

METROBITES LOCAL TIP
Taste first, then add vinegar and chili gradually

Taste the soup and vermicelli plain to identify gentle sweetness and garlic, then add vinegar or chili sauce gradually. Adjusting in stages makes your preferred tang and heat easier to find without masking the original flavors.

🤖 AI Guide

朱記花枝羹 · Zhu Ji Hua Zhi Geng is a long-running snack stall on Zhengyi North Road in Sanchong. Since nineteen sixty-eight, it has focused on cuttlefish thick soup and fried rice vermicelli. There is no complex menu or ornate storefront; the standard order is both together: a clear, sweet soup and tangy noodles, alternating thick-cut cuttlefish's crisp bounce with moist fine vermicelli for a simple but complete meal.

Setting and atmosphere:Seats sit beneath the arcade in a traditional semi-open snack space. With few tables, those near the counter can see steam from the stove, a full basin of vermicelli, and rapid plating. The setting is plain and tables may be shared when crowded, but only two items keep ordering, serving, and turnover brisk. From queue to soup ladling and noodles arriving, the whole process has the immediacy of old-school street food.
Location, transport, and queueing:The address is 新北市三重區正義北路51號, near the corner of Zhengyi North Road and Ping'an Street. From 台北橋站 · Taipei Bridge, walk along Zhengyi North Road for about five to seven minutes and watch for the red circular sign near the corner. Both dine-in and takeaway customers queue along the on-site flow. Dine-in guests order first, then staff assign limited, possibly shared seats. Follow the line and directions for the smoothest quick meal.
Cuttlefish Thick Soup

Plenty of radish gives the thick soup natural sweetness, yet it remains refreshing rather than gluey. Thick cuttlefish wears only a thin fish-paste coating, so the seafood is clearly visible. Each bite moves from soft, springy paste to distinct crisp, chewy cuttlefish. Radish keeps the seafood flavor clean and fried garlic adds aroma without stealing the lead. Sip the plain soup, then bite the cuttlefish to distinguish the textures.

花枝羹Fried Rice Vermicelli

Fine vermicelli stays moist and soft after steaming. Before serving, a special vinegar-garlic sauce opens the appetite with sweet-tart aroma. Crisp bean sprouts add freshness; once mixed, garlic and acidity coat evenly rather than staying on top. Add the shop's vinegar-chili sauce for heat that makes the sweet-tart flavor more dimensional, and alternate with the clear cuttlefish soup.

米粉炒
One bowl of soup, one plate of vermicelli, the same two dishes for decades. Fewer choices make every bite more focused.
💡 Ordering Tip

For the fullest first visit, order both. Sip Cuttlefish Thick Soup for radish sweetness, then taste the vermicelli plain. Add vinegar-chili sauce to preference afterward and compare its tang and heat before and after seasoning.

🦑 MetroBites Summary

朱記花枝羹 · Zhu Ji Hua Zhi Geng builds a vivid everyday Sanchong flavor from very few choices. Cuttlefish Thick Soup centers on thick seafood, thin fish paste, and radish-sweet broth; Fried Rice Vermicelli gets its tang from moist fine noodles, bean sprouts, and vinegar-garlic sauce.

No menu study is needed—follow the queue, sit down, and enjoy this pairing carried on for years.
