Kaohsiung restaurant offers egg and vegetables noodles for NT$50

2026-05-21

A restaurant in Kaohsiung’s Dashu District has gotten incredibly popular for selling a bowl of noodles with an egg and vegetables for only NT$50. It added this simple dish after customers kept saying they didn’t want this or that in their noodle soup, and was surprised that it has helped their business so much.

After adding just noodles, cabbage, and an egg to a pot, this simple noodle soup is ready to serve. Despite only having three ingredients, the menu item has become incredibly popular.

Customer
Likes the soup
I come for the soup, not the ingredients. Every noodle or breakfast shop has those ingredients.

Customer
Loves the food
I think it’s great, ten out of ten. It has eggs and vegetables, so it’s got both protein and fiber.

This meatball restaurant in Kaohsiung’s Dashu District started offering a vegetable and egg noodle soup for just NT$50, surprisingly increasing business by about 30%.

Restaurant owner
Caters to picky eaters
Lots of customers didn’t want processed ingredients, or clams, black fungus, or other things. For just NT$50, I’ve found there are a lot of customers who will order this.

Catering to picky customers, the restaurant started offering this simple, affordable noodle soup. But other restaurants like this one in Kaohsiung’s Qianjin District include lots of ingredients. Here for NT$115, a bowl of noodles comes with shrimp, clams, shredded pork, vegetables, and meatballs.

- I don’t want shrimp or seafood.

- I don’t want meatballs or vegetables, or those weird radishes.

Customers can be picky about what they eat, so some restaurants let customers swap ingredients, while others offer a simpler option. Whether customers just want eggs and vegetables, or lots of seafood and meat, they can find the option that’s right for them.

月底救星! 一碗只要50元! 簡配版鍋燒麵只有雞蛋.蔬菜

2026-05-21

高雄大樹區有一間販售肉圓的店家，因為一碗蛋菜鍋燒麵意外爆紅，只有麵條、湯、蔬菜和雞蛋的鍋燒麵，一碗只要50元超級便宜，業者說，因為客人有的不想吃火鍋料，有的不要蛤蜊，乾脆通通拿掉，結果生意不減反增。

在湯裡加入意麵和高麗菜，打上一顆蛋煮一煮，你以為還有其他配料等著放嗎？沒有了就這樣，這是簡易版的鍋燒意麵，最近在網路上意外爆紅。

[[民眾]]
喝他的湯啊，不是要吃他的料，吃料每一個鍋燒店，早餐複合店都會有啊。

[[民眾]]
我覺得超厲害滿分，只有蔬菜跟蛋，蛋白質然後膳食纖維都有啊。

位在高雄大樹區這間肉圓店，除了賣肉圓，還販售菜蛋鍋燒麵，業者捨棄一些配料降價到50元，生意反而比之前還要好約三成。

[[業者]]
“太多客人不要火鍋料，不要什麼不要蛤蜊啊，不要木耳絲啊不要什麼的，50塊錢。我發現這個族群算是，潛在的族群還蠻多的。”

為了因應挑食的客人，業者推出單純的鍋燒麵，也被稱作月底救星，而其實一般的鍋燒麵，配料都不少，像是高雄前金區店家販售的這一碗，除了有麵，有蝦子、蛤蜊、肉絲，還有蔬菜跟丸子，超級豐富，一碗115元，要讓顧客吃飽飽。

“我不想要蝦子跟海鮮類的”

“我不想要丸子也不想要有菜，還有一些奇怪的蘿蔔。”

鍋燒麵好吃歸好吃，不少民眾還是會挑食，這不要那不要的，有的店家會讓客人更換其他食材，而有的則是直接拿掉減少麻煩，簡易版跟豐富版的鍋燒麵價差65元，喜歡哪一款，就看顧客怎麼選。

Pile of mattresses makes 1km roadside wall in Taichung

A new kind of great wall has arisen in Taichung, made up of 3,000 discarded mattresses. Piled alongside the road outside a cleaning facility in Tanzi District, this pile of mattresses stretches for nearly 1 km. Residents worry it could attract mosquitoes or rats, but the local Environmental Protection Bureau said they disinfect them every day. The mattresses are expected to be removed within three months.

From an aerial perspective, there appears to be a wall of white along the side of the road, nearly surrounding the entire block. But what is it?

It’s made up entirely of mattresses, from small single ones to big king size ones. There are about 3,000 mattresses piled up along the side of the road, stretching for nearly a full kilometer.

This road leads to the cleaning facility in Taichung’s Tanzi District, and is not open to the public. The local Environmental Protection Bureau said that mattress disposal is normally outsourced, but no company has taken the contract this year. Now about 20,000 mattresses are stockpiled across the city, with over 3,000 temporarily stored at the Tanzi cleaning team facility for the past nine months.

Member of public
OK with mattresses
I’m used to it. It’s usually pretty smelly by the cleaning facility anyway. As long as they disinfect it and keep rats away, then it’s OK.

Member of public
Noticed mosquitoes
There will definitely be mosquitoes there. At places like that it’s unavoidable.

Chao Cheng-yu
Taichung Environmental Protection Bureau director
In terms of management, this is a single-entry, single-exit site, and it’s basically an internal storage area. As for rodent issues, we’ve stepped up disinfection in the areas where the mattresses are piled up.

The cleaning team is doing their best to disassemble and discard the mattresses, but progress is slow. Once a new contractor is hired, the bureau says the mattresses can be cleared within about three months.

Affectionate police station cat cheers up lost girl

Getting lost is a scary experience for young kids, but not so much so when a cat could keep the child company. Recently, a little girl in Hsinchu was taken into a police station by a woman who spotted her all alone on the streets. Seeing that she might have felt nervous, officers knew immediately how to comfort her—with the station’s resident cat. But as soon as the girl could start to get to know her new friend, her mother called and picked her up. Funnily, the girl ended up reluctant to go home with mom.

The little girl wandered alone on the streets of Hsinchu. A woman who spotted her took her to the police station. The girl had a wary gaze, but there’s a perfect solution.

Wu Cheng-wei
Beimen Police Station, Zhubei
The little girl was a bit nervous when she was taken in, but she was calm for the most part. She noticed that we have a cat at our station. She was really interested in the cat, so we offered her tube treats and fed the cat with her.

The police station’s resident cat warms up easily to people. The officer knew immediately that the girl would be happy to interact with the cat, when the adorable kitty immediately grabbed her attention. But just as she was about to make a new feline friend, the phone suddenly went off. It was the girl’s worried mother calling for help. The mother had left the car temporarily to make a quick purchase, only to have the girl leave the car on her own.

Wu Cheng-wei
Beimen Police Station, Zhubei
The little girl opened the car door on her own and went out. Her mother had no idea where she had gone. But it ended very quickly. The mother found her daughter almost immediately.

But the girl had become reluctant to go home. She wouldn’t stop petting the cat on the way out. When the mother and daughter reached the entrance, she turned back with arms wide open to ask for a hug from an officer.

The officer responded positively. With the kindness of strangers and an adorable cat, the girl ended up with a fond memory.

Taipei Zoo urgently searching for escaped 11-yo southern tamandua

An 11-year-old anteater named Blackie has gone missing from Taipei Zoo, which is calling on the public to help locating the animal. On Monday evening, the female tamandua escaped by climbing up a banana shrub and disappearing into the darkness. It’s been three days, but she’s still nowhere to be found, which has sparked a frantic search in the area. Zoo officials are urging the public to keep an eye out for the runaway anteater and hope that she finds her way home safely soon.

A southern tamandua, also known as the lesser anteater, looks up the tree trunk before climbing up. Her name is Blackie, and visitors love her. She’s been missing from the Taipei Zoo for a couple of days now.

Tsao Hsien-shao
Taipei Zoo spokesperson
Blackie had climbed up the hardy banana shrub. When the banana leaf tilted from her weight, she had the opportunity to latch onto the imitation boulder structure, and from there on escaped.

Surveillance footage from 6:55 p.m. on May 18 shows Blackie lurking in the bromeliad plant area, right by the visitors’ walkway, only to disappear in a flash. The zoo reckoned that she’d made her way out by climbing up a banana shrub.

Wu Li-hsin
Taipei Zoo researcher
Considering her age and the fact that she’s not been out for a long time yet, we’re narrowing our search zone by a little bit. It’s been three days now, which works out to about 6km to 9km away from the zoo.

The southern tamandua is a solitary, tree-dwelling mammal native to South America. It has a sticky tongue several dozens of centimeters long, sharp claws on the front limbs and a hairless prehensile tail. Its diet is composed of ants, termites and other insects.

Tsao Hsien-shao
Taipei Zoo spokesperson
A little more than five years ago, Little Red had also escaped when the weather was good, like now. She was happy in the beginning, but a cold snap a little later on was a little hard on her, and she was discovered by a hiker. Of course, we took her back in at the soonest possible moment. The southern tamandua is nocturnal, so we have automated cameras installed around the area, and we’re checking every day for any traces of Blackie.

In 2020, another female southern tamandua named Little Red was only found three months after escaping. Blackie, the protagonist this time is a lovely granny aged 11. She’s about 50cm to 60 cm long, and sensitive and timid in nature. On the third day of her escape, the zoo hopes that people will keep an eye out for her, but urges anyone who spots her not to try to capture her. Instead, they should notify the zoo immediately.

Joggers shocked by dozens of used needles in Taichung street

A disturbing discovery in Taichung is raising serious concerns about public safety. A night jogger in Xitun District stumbled upon dozens of discarded syringes scattered across sidewalks and grass near Central Park, some with exposed needles still attached. The shocking scene has alarmed nearby residents and students, who fear that the area may have become a hotspot for drug use. City councilors are now demanding answers, warning of potential infection risks and questioning whether this is a long-ignored blind spot in local law enforcement. Police have launched an investigation and are reviewing surveillance footage to track down whoever is responsible.

One needle here, another one there. Everywhere you look there are discarded syringes. But this is clearly not a hospital, but a public space. The sight of the many needles discarded here has freaked out locals.

Student at nearby university
Taichung
It’s very weird. If I were wearing sandals I’d be even more afraid of stepping on them. We’re also close to a school. So I’m afraid that the drug user would make it to our campus after shooting up.

Student at nearby university
Taichung
If I were to step on them I wouldn’t know what to do. It’s worrying.

In a short stretch of road, we found more than 15 discarded syringes on the grass and the sidewalk, some with the needle exposed. There are also yellow rubber tourniquets, and a rolling tray. Locals are worried that they might step on them and get infected, especially at night when it’s dark.

Chen Yu-jung
Taichung City Councilor (DPP)
Taichung’s public safety is once again flashing a red warning light. If you step on the needles or get pricked, you could get a disease. This is not an isolated drug problem. It’s a matter of urban management, public health and public security.

Chen Ya-hui
Taichung City Councilor (DPP)
Is this a collapse of public safety, or a blind spot that has been left ignored? The city government shouldn’t wait for citizens to post online to actually see how serious the situation is.

Huang Shou-ta
Taichung City Councilor (DPP)
The Taichung City Government should find the truth behind the incident and strengthen patrols to prevent public panic.

A night jogger was shocked to find syringes on the ground along Kaixuan 2nd Street near Central Park in Xitun District. The area is and surrounded by new developments, meaning it is generally quiet and might have become a place for illicit activities.

Tu Chih-hung
Police officer
We dispatched officers to the scene to collect evidence and bring it back for a forensic investigation to determine whether there was drug use or other illegal activities.

Police immediately dispatched officers to the area to investigate and collect evidence, and surveillance footage is being reviewed.
