胡記通化街米粉湯（60年總店） · show this name to taxi drivers

The original branch of a rice noodle soup shop that has been running for about 60 years, on Linjiang Street in the night market area. It serves soft, thick rice noodles in a pork-bone broth, with braised pork rice and small plates of sliced pork and offal on the side. It opens at 11:00 and stays open until 01:00, so it works for lunch or a late snack.
