The saga continues! After rounding up a group of our most adventurous friends,we came back to try more of the tasty food. We had the tu dou tiao (cold potato slaw),niu rou mian (beef noodle soup),niu wei mian (oxtail soup),and more of the jiu cai he zi (chive pies) and yang rou jia bing (lamb burger). The tu dou tiao ($3) was good and cold,crunchy,marinated in a little fish sauce (we think!),topped with a teeny bit of cilantro and pepper flakes. The niu rou mian ($4.50) at Lanzhou Hand-made Noodles was amazing:freshly made thin noodles in a beefy soup along with thick yet tender slices of beef. If you’re feeling dangerous,add in a few drops of the table chili oil. Their niu wei mian ($5.50) was also good but the soup wasn’t as complex and the oxtail wasn’t as meaty.
We failed to snap a pic of the noodle dishes before we devoured them but there’s always tomorrow!
