Sanyi is famous for its Hakka food. Miaoli is home to many Hakka people who have their own style of cooking. One of the popular things to eat in Sanyi is the noodles.

Past the main strip of galleries drivers will come to a pair of busy noodle/Hakka restaurants. One of them is the “Jin Bang Noodle Shop”. These places are busy and offer up a selection of noodles and Hakka style noodles called “bantiao” (pictured)

Here is the sign for the “Jin Bang Noodle Shop”. Next store is another busy noodle shop selling just about the same dishes.
