Back in July, some colleagues invited me to join them for lunch at one of the local eateries I had driven past almost every day for the previous two years but had never gave a second look to.  The name of the restaurant is Bei Fun, or North Rice.  Turns out, this is one of their favorites, and after that lunch, I understood why!  Showing a little foresight, I even grabbed a copy of the order sheets and marked down my favorite dishes from that lunch so I’d know what to order if I ever returned.

A few days later, Erin and I were discussing what to do for dinner, and I suggested I bring home some takeout from Bei Fun.  Turns out, almost every dish turned out awesome even as take-out, despite needing to undergo the 45 minute drive home after preparation.  One dish, the spicy wontons, didn’t travel too well so it fell off the take-out rotation.

As Erin is still back in the US and I’m out of thawed options in the fridge, I decided to pick up some dishes for tonight (and leftovers for at least tomorrow as well!)

Here’s a brief overview of the offerings I brought home (total bill, NT$340, a little more than US $11.  Not bad for two nights’ dinners!)
