Ok for those of you who don't know, Zhou found a Chinese noodle place on the South corner of Doyers and Bowery that's fantastic. They have hand-pulled noodles, knife cut (daoxiao), and even pan fried. I don't know if they have any vegetarian broth but the pan fried gives options for vegetarians (Leo was asking about this).
Their Daoxiaomian is better than the one on Eldridge I think, but I haven't tried their hand-pulled noodles yet. The restaurant is a lot cleaner than the other hole-in-the-wall daoxiaomian places, and the service is also extremely friendly. The first time I went with Shifu, they went and got beer for us from a place around the corner. They also offered cilantro without us even asking for it. They even serve you tea, I think it's jasmine (it's sweeter than what you normally get at restaurants).
I went there Saturday and the girl recommended I try the soup with tendon and tripe instead of just beef. It was like number 1, but with the different broth and daoxiaomian. I liked it a lot more. And it's only $5!
I asked, and she told me the place closes at 10:30, so I suggest we add it to our list of after-training dinner spots.
yay! let's go on after Training on Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteThe hand pulled noodles are awesome too. This place rocks!
ReplyDeleteShaved ice for dessert soon! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe leftover soup doesn't become disgusting the next day! I just had it for lunch today. But I think daoxiaomian holds up better than hand-pulled.
ReplyDeleteYay! Two meals for $5!
