𓂇 Flavor of Military Dependents' Village at Elements

𓄲 𓄲 𓄲 Taiwan’s popular beef noodle champion "Duan Chun Zhen" has opened its fifth new branch, located in the heart of Kowloon at Elements. This first visit to this highly acclaimed noodle shop explores how artisan techniques interpret the profound essence of century-old braised flavors. 𓂑 Clear Stewed Beef Noodles $82 This seemingly simple clear stewed beef noodle soup is actually a test of skill. The broth is clear like amber, infused with the essence of beef bones and vegetables slow-cooked for 12 hours. The beef shank is sliced very thinly, with marbled muscle fibers resembling beautiful marble patterns, melting in your mouth while retaining a chewy texture. The handmade noodles have uneven thickness to better absorb the broth, perfectly complementing the flavorful beef soup for a harmonious taste. 𓂑 Rich Stewed Chicken Noodles $88 A must-try recommendation! The rich white broth is like nectar, with an enticing aroma of chicken fat. The soup’s thickness is just right—not too heavy, yet evenly coats every strand of noodles. The chicken thigh meat is tender and smooth, especially recommended with thin noodles, which have many pores to lock in the rich chicken broth, making every bite an exquisite experience! 𓂑 Fresh Pork Potstickers $48 A personal favorite. The potstickers form a perfect lace-like crispy bottom, golden and inviting. The filling is juicy and flavorful, paired with crunchy cabbage—simple yet authentic. Dipped in the house special sauce, which is salty with a hint of sourness, it not only enhances the flavor but also highlights the meat’s aroma. 𓂑 Old Tofu $38 The braising sauce penetrates evenly, with a strong bean fragrance. The texture is between soft tofu and dried tofu, offering a firm bite. Served with peanuts and greens, it’s a humble traditional snack. 𓂑 Garlic Soy Sauce Lettuce $48 The lettuce is fresh and tender green, with a fragrant garlic aroma that is not overpowering, refreshing and cleansing the palate. 𓂑 Winter Melon and Job’s Tears Special Drink $36 Traditional simmered winter melon tea perfectly blended with job’s tears, moderately sweet with a lingering sweet aftertaste. 𓂑 Fresh Tangerine and Pomelo Honey $34 Freshly squeezed tangerine juice combined with pomelo honey creates a refreshing flavor, bursting with fruity aroma. The sweetness is mild, so it never becomes cloying no matter how much you drink. Duan Chun Zhen’s entry into Elements not only brings authentic military dependents’ village flavors but also, through meticulous store design, allows diners to experience traditional tastes in a modern setting. Whether enjoying a steaming bowl of beef noodles alone or sharing various snacks with friends, this place satisfies all your Taiwanese food cravings. When leaving, the lingering aroma of beef on your lips makes you eagerly anticipate your next visit. 𓄲 𓄲 𓄲 📍Shop 2132, 2/F, Food Court, ELEMENTS, 1 Austin Road West, Tsim Sha Tsui
