Shuangfeng mutton noodles, a local cuisine of Taicang, is known for its crisp meat, rich soup and the delicate flavor. Over 100 years ago, a cook with the surname Meng, opened up a noodle shop on the western street of Shuangfeng, an ancient town of 1,600 years. The shop had earned a great reputation for serving the best meat, soup and noodles. The noodles were exceptionally welcomed on winter days.
