The big plate chicken look great! Was your meal a good portion for two people?
Yeah, the location is weird but it was easy for me to park along the street, so that’s a major perk. Glad to know the veggie dumplings are good— along with some vegetarian appetizers, that’ll make it easy for me to convince the family to lemme order stuff via DoorDash.
The man who works the front of the house was most excited about the Shaanxi noodle dishes. He said those are popular now in Shandong, where he and the chef are from, and distinguish their menu from the other local restaurants where they’ve previously worked. He said that the Special Fish dumplings are the one menu item more traditional to Shandong.
The sour spicy dry noodles are a broth less version of saozi mian. The house made noodles were chewy, and covered in a salty and sour sauce made with snippets of pork belly along with cubes of potatoes, carrots, and celery. I liked these so much I may graduate to their soup version on a colder day.
(I also liked their sheng jian bao)
