Founded in Tainan, Taiwan, Du Hsiao Yueh has become a beloved institution over the years, attracting both locals and tourists with its traditional, time-honored dishes. The Manila branch, brought to the country by Viva International Food and Restaurants Inc., aims to deliver the same rich flavors that have made Du Hsiao Yueh famous worldwide.
At the heart of the menu is the celebrated danzai noodles, a dish that has been passed down through generations. The dish features delicate noodles served in a savory broth, topped with minced pork and shrimp. Its simple yet rich flavors have made it a staple of Taiwanese cuisine.
In addition to the danzai noodles, the menu includes a variety of Taiwanese specialties such as braised pork rice, a comfort food favorite, and beef noodle soup, known for its hearty and flavorful broth. The restaurant also offers popular Taiwanese street foods like oyster omelets and pork buns, bringing the flavors of Taiwan’s bustling street food culture to Manila.
The restaurant’s design blends traditional Taiwanese elements with a modern touch, creating a cozy yet stylish dining space. This combination of classic and contemporary reflects Du Hsiao Yueh’s commitment to preserving its heritage while appealing to modern tastes.
