I was busy the past few days so it took me quite some time to post this and as usual I've forgotten most of what I wanted to say at that moment. What I do remember however is that 90% of the customers there ordered the Pork Chop Noodles and quite frankly it looked really really nice. Since it was my first visit there we didn't really know what to order... we only noticed the popularity of the Pork Chop Noodles after we were seated for some time. Another day I guess ;)
We had 2 bowls of noodles and a bowl of dumplings that day. The noodles itself were quite good. In fact they are so good they actually self package their noodles (just the plain uncooked noodles) and sell them off. They also sell mee-sua.
If I'm not mistaken every noodle dish on the menu comes in 2 versions; a soup based version and a dry version. Of the 2 bowls of noodles we ordered the Zha Chai (it's a name for a picked vegetable) Noodles was really quite plain. Not really my kind of dish. The Szechuan Beef noodles however was a totally different experience. I loved the soup base though I would have liked it to be spicier (I guess Taiwanese do not have the tolerance to spicyness that Malaysians do). What was quite outstanding were the pieces of beef they gave. Tasty lean meat. None of the fatty uneatable pieces.
The dumplings were quite big and really meaty. But where its size impresses it kind of falls flat on taste. I don't think good dumplings can be made based on a filling of meat alone. I like them filled with some fragrant herbs or vegetables.
Taiwan Noodle House is not a bad place to go for some Taiwanese styled noodles. It's fairly cheap. You should be able to get by with RM10 per person.

hmmm... talking about noodles, when i was in spore, i had this chinese style ramen at this restaurant called 'Crystal Jade La Mian Kitchen'. they served very good ramen and later i found out that they do have an outlet here in lot10(the staircase entrance to standard chartered bank). tried them and they tasted exactly like the one in spore. go check it out!! it's really good and cost about the same as this taiwanese noodle.
btw, thanx for the recommendation. :)
