Our favorite spicy noodle soups in Chinatown proper now are at Yummy Noodle & BBQ in Chinatown.
Whereas the zombie invasion nonetheless sucks brains we proceed the rounds of hole-in-the-wall restos with out of doors eating. Hopefully the bloody-government will get it is act collectively quickly and make it simpler for restos to bung just a few tables outdoors, significantly in Dixon Avenue Mall which is screaming with potential.
However there are out of doors eating choices for b-kyu aficionados, discovering them has change into a sport for us. Our newest favorite is Yummy Noodle & BBQ, within the northern little bit of Dixon Avenue Mall. The noodle soups specifically seize us by the booboo.
Kudos to the cheery people that run this place!
Spicy pork intestines rice noodles – $14.90. A scorching’n’spicy broth, similar to Chonqing noodles, which we love. The pork intestines have a brilliant umami punch, incredible. We loved this a lot we tried it once more and it was simply as wow the second time round. A brand new favorite.
Lamb skewars – 5 for $6. Cumin lamb on a stick, little satay sized fellas.
A aspect of beef and blended vegatables – $6.90. Scrumptious beef, kinda like roast beef on a mattress of lettuce. Yay.
Spicy beef rice noodles – $12.90 (small). Slices of beef and pork in a frivolously spicy broth, incredible. We love the smaller sized soups right here, nice for a small lunch or for leaving sufficient room for a aspect dish.
Laoyou rice noodles – $12.90 (small). We won’t recall consuming laoyou rice noodles earlier than, in we dive. It is like a jazzed up model of the traditional pork and preserved veggie soup – solely with minced pork, a little bit chilli and many further little bitties. Dinner winner.
Cucumber with beef tendon – $6.90. The meat tendons are tremendous mushy and coated in a candy/bitter sauce, the cucumber cuts by way of a zing. The oozy gelatinous texture of the tendons are the magic on this aspect dish. It took us a very long time to understand that texture is a ‘factor’ in Chinese language cooking, that mouth really feel could be proper up there with flavour. However as soon as this idea took maintain in our little brains we now have by no means regarded again.
