Tainan City – KangLe Street Beef Soup康樂街牛肉湯

KangLe Street Beef Soup

KangLe Street Beef Soup

KangLe Street Beef Soup may not be one of the most well-known beef soup shops in Tainan, however, it has a certain appeal to it based on the fact that you can see the owner chopping beef outside.

※The price on the menu has changed since our last visit, the prices in the post are updated.

Beef Soup – 牛肉湯 (niú ròu tāng) –  is the order of the day, here. However, at $180 per big bowl, it doesn’t come cheap.

We ordered a bowl of the Beef Soup ($180), and also a side of Stir Fried Beef (生炒牛肉 shēng chǎo niúròu $140).

The stir fried beef was done in a Sacha sauce (沙茶醬), which imparts a nice saltiness and garlic flavour to the beef, with some fresh crunchy leaves. I liked this a lot.

However, the beef soup didn’t do it for me. The broth had a very strong carrot flavour. Now, I am not a hater of carrots. But, the taste was too overpowering at KangLe Street Beef Soup. I appreciate a beefy broth more, personally. The beef itself was pretty good, though, so if you like a vegetable broth then you’re looking at a solid choice. However, if you’re looking for a more beefy broth, then I would say give 文章牛肉湯 a shout, instead.
