5 Spices House: Chinatown (Boston), and Cambridge

Glad your experience here was at least decent, @passing_thru. The Shangri La version of the soup did not have tomatoes, incidentally, and I agree the supermarkety ones at 5 Spices don’t add much. I haven’t had that soup from them in a while, but in the past the broth was very flavorful, and I personally liked the floating bits of omelette in it.

Haven’t had their dan dan noodles. I’ll put them on the list.

I’ve continued to enjoy their sizzling chicken and their hotpot over the last few months. I’ve been confined to delivery, though, and they have several specials that they don’t deliver but that sound fascinating. Were they on the board when you were there?
