Xi An, 西安小厨


I've always been fond of China's hand-pull noodles, superseding them over Japanese Ramen.

For they're much more chewy, bouncy - enjoys the chomp into real flour; a heartier fare to have compared with dainty Japanese noodles. What do you think?

炸酱面, Noodles with Soybean paste ($3)

A discovery of one China operated hawker stall at Blk 44, Cambridge Road; serving up substantial helping of my favourite Zha Jian Mian!

In our local context, hand-made noodles are laborious product and they are indeed. But diligent China immigrant takes to it as a common chore, charging only a nominal fee for the fare; i very much admire that.

锅贴, Pan-fried Dumplings (8 nos. - $4)

You can also have their respectable dumplings, beautifully pan-fried finished with a crisp layer of pastry.

Any luckier, we shall land ourselves with their popular Liang Fen, 凉粉- it just gotten sold out >:-< as i watched the many neighboring tables relishing on the last plateful! Hmmm...! Be back.
