THE STORY

The story behind this place

2012 SINCE

More Than a Decade of Lamb Soup Moves into a Siwei Road Alley

大碗公當歸羊肉 opened in 2012 and built a following with angelica herbal broth and different lamb cuts. In 2023, it moved from the main road into a quiet Siwei Road alley while keeping the same culinary focus.

In 2025, the restaurant entered the Taiwan Michelin Guide's Bib Gourmand selection. More people now enter the alley, but the table remains simple: hot lamb soup, Lu Rou Fan, and a few staples and sides.

Skin-On Lamb Soup MetroBites visit photo

Skin-On Lamb Soup

Angelica is clear but not bitter, with a sweet finish. The skin is springy and the meat tender; taste the broth first, then add shredded ginger.

Lu Rou Fan MetroBites visit photo

Lu Rou Fan

The dark braising sauce is salty, sweet, and rich. Diced pork stands out over rice, while a sip of angelica soup lightens it.

✨ AI Restaurant Snapshot

大碗公當歸羊肉 is a lamb snack shop in a Siwei Road alley in Banqiao and has appeared in the Michelin Guide. Its signature Skin-On Lamb Soup makes angelica herbs gentle, with springy skin and tender meat. Add rich Lu Rou Fan and the strong and light flavors hold each other in balance. For more meat to gnaw, choose Lamb Bone Soup; sesame-oil vermicelli adds warmth on cold days. The set looks old-fashioned but quietly gets finished.

Uncle's note: Angelica soup need not make the next table faint from fragrance. The real skill is making people finish it easily.
Interior and dining atmosphere:Hidden in a Siwei Road alley, the shop retains the direct feel of a neighborhood eatery. Most guests sit for lamb soup with rice or vermicelli. It is not a refined restaurant; crowds turn seats quickly at peaks, and popular skin-on lamb can sell out early. Take photos briskly—the hungry eyes behind you are rarely romantic.

Location and dining notes:大碗公當歸羊肉 is at 新北市板橋區四維路112巷2號. Walk from Exit 1 of Xinpu Station (新埔站), and it is also within the area of the Circular Line's Xinpu Minsheng Station (新埔民生站). The shop is known for angelica lamb soup and dark Lu Rou Fan. Popular soups, hours, and sellouts follow daily notices; do not arrive too late if Skin-On Lamb Soup is your goal.
● Skin-On Lamb Soup

Skin-On Lamb Soup is central. Angelica herbs are clear without becoming bitter; the broth is gentle and finishes sweet. Springy skin and tender meat offer two textures, with lamb character that stays approachable. Drink the broth alone first, then eat the meat with ginger rather than flooding it with sauce.

Uncle's note: Lamb may have character, but it should not have a temper. Poor handling, rather than flavor, makes people frown.
● Lu Rou Fan

Lu Rou Fan is notably rich, with slightly sweet braising sauce over rice. It can feel heavy near the end, but angelica lamb soup restores balance. A braised egg can complete the meal: seasoned white and a yolk that stays moist.

● Lamb Bone Soup

Lamb Bone Soup is meatier and richer than Skin-On Lamb Soup, for diners willing to work slowly around the bone. It is not elegant fast food; pick up the bone. With Lu Rou Fan and vermicelli too, the meal becomes substantial, so sharing between two avoids regret.

● Sesame Oil Vermicelli

Fragrant sesame oil and soft vermicelli add a filling staple to lamb soup. With angelica broth, warmth builds throughout the meal and suits cold weather. Ordering it with Lu Rou Fan and Lamb Bone Soup makes both flavor and portions heavy; one staple is enough.

💡 Ordering Notes

First pair Skin-On Lamb Soup with Lu Rou Fan for broth, springy skin, and rich sauce. Choose Lamb Bone Soup to gnaw meat, or sesame-oil vermicelli for aroma and a staple. Popular items may sell out, so arrive early.

📌 Editor's Summary

大碗公當歸羊肉 excels at balance: Skin-On Lamb Soup is herbal yet easy to drink, with layered skin and tender meat; richer Lu Rou Fan is steadied by hot soup. Lamb Bone Soup and sesame-oil vermicelli add heavier, warmer choices. Michelin brought visibility, but diners return for angelica broth that does not rely on harsh salt.
