4/5 What up s. 11 months ago on Google
Since
my
favourite
Xinjiang
noodle
spot
closed
down
back
in
Hurstville,
I've
embarked
on
the
lookout
for
terrific
hand-pulled
noodles
in
Sydney.
Northern
Chinese
Cuisine
was
next
on
the
list
once
I
noticed
their
etched
wooden
sign
glittering
through
the
construction
tarp.
Just
opposite
Mascot
train
station,
you
can
stumble
right
into
quaint
family
restaurant
and
be
enveloped
in
Chinese
culture
and
pride
emanating
from
the
hundreds
of
red
lanterns.
Of
course,
I
had
to
get
a
taste
of
the
stir-fried
noodles
with
lamb
showcasing
the
chef's
mastery.
The
hand-pulled
elasticity
of
the
noodles
pinpointed
the
right
texture
to
gather
as
much
sweet
savoury
sauce,
though
it
was
slightly
too
firm
and
hard
to
chew
in
the
centre.
But
when
exposed
to
the
heat
of
the
wok,
the
noodles
are
easy
to
slurp
and
delight
in
the
delicious
saltiness.
The
lamb
is
also
cooked
well
with
the
gaminess
removed
and
its
appetising
meatiness
deepening
the
whole
plate's
flavour.
We
haven't
reached
the
end
of
the
noodles
yet
because
the
cold
noodles
had
us
licking
our
lips
for
more.
Tossed
and
coated
in
a
soothing
nutty
sauce,
the
Sichuan
style
chicken
slices
pepped
up
the
dish
with
an
exciting
chilli
spice
and
then
toned
down
with
the
cool
crunch
of
cucumber.
A
tasty
roller
coaster
I
would
totally
ride
again
and
again
till
my
stomach
is
about
to
give
out.
Outside
of
the
realm
of
noodles,
I
was
curious
about
their
Chinese
beef
pie
and
how
their
dough
turned
out
there.
Wrapped
in
a
tight
spiral
of
starchy
dough,
the
thin
layer
of
pinkish
beef
mince
lacked
seasoning
and
was
underwhelming
for
a
typically
bursting
beef
pie.
I
was
enjoying
the
grilled
top
of
the
dough
more
than
the
bland
filling
itself,
which
is
not
ideal.
Let's
get
back
to
the
noodles
where
we
were
taken
by
surprise
the
Korean
cold
noodles,
the
underdog
we
had
little
expectations
for.
Authentic
or
not,
the
bowl
was
majorly
comforting
with
a
bountiful
variety
of
toppings
that
layer
on
the
tastiness.
The
buckwheat
noodles
gracefully
slip
into
the
mouth
with
a
gush
of
luscious
soup,
intercepted
by
the
popping
juices
of
the
tomatoes
or
a
sour
zap
from
the
kimchi
and
apple
slices.
Even
the
lean
cuts
of
beef
are
succulent,
substantiating
the
wholesomeness
of
the
meal.
While
there
are
a
few
misses
on
the
vast
menu
like
the
fried
rice,
I'll
be
coming
back
for
one
reason
only
and
it's
the
awesome
noodle
dishes.
