Excellent Chinese Noodles

May 20, 2008

To Me the best bang for your buck is ” sha lin noodles”

They make the noodles right in front of you And they have vegitarian broth as well as chicken broth

Every guest I take there is really happy.

Also a good source of ” local info” is :

“discovervancouver”http://www.discovervancouver.com/forum/place-noodle-soup-t36095.html

Heres a post from “taste of 604.com”
Cutting noodles in soup w/ lamb:  these are the neatest noodles.  The chef takes a block of dough and you watch him scrape the noodles off one at a time as they fly into the pot of boiling soup.  the soup is a clear broth that soaks up the lamb taste.  Lots of cilantro for extra flavouring… so good, drooling as I’m typing.

I agree– the cutting noodles with lamb are the best!

Finally- Good Ramen In Vancouver : !

Finally Vancouver has some good Ramen-

After years of praying that someone would start a Ramen shop that tasted good

Benkei Ramen has opened on Robson St in Vancouver .

The Ramen tastes really good .Especially the “house” Ramen- it has a special amount of dried fish in the soup.

They have three basic types of soup Shio Hakata-my favorite

Miso Hakata My second favorite .img007.jpg

And Shoyu - tastes good but is much lighter - has the chicken based soup .

Highly recommended . My prayers have been finally answered -

Now I just need someone to set up a “Sento” next door .

Also the service to really good~
