As if the restaurant food wasn't good enough.....................

On a weekend, on my way down to SD, I picked up a brown sugar MOCHI cake.

WTF?  It's so good I almost ate the whole thing.  Until I remembered that it was really for my friend.  Happy...…More »

The beef noodle soup isn't nearly as delicious as the Da Ho in Rosemead, but it was more taiwan style than szechuan style.  The dan dan mien was really super bomb delicious and probably the thing I would reorder.  The green onion pancakes were…More »

No, it never disappoints me.  But damn you yelp!  Why you gotta tell all the people about this place?  I was behind a long line of teeny boppers, and had to wait for my food.  

My stomach waits for no line!

Ok.  Maybe just this one.

101 Noodle has some legit noodling.  True to its name.  

The dumplings are fatly stuffed and the wrappers are freshly made.  The noodles from the soup noodles are hand made.  The beef noodle soup is light and refreshing, though it could do without the…More »

I would probably give this place 3.5 stars as there are just too many good places in rh to eat at for Taiwanese.  It isn't the best I've had in the area, but at the same time it is far from the worst.

The beef roll thing (niu rou juan bing) - think…More »

THICK.  SESAME.  GREEN ONION.  BREAD.  

Just the way I like it.  Muslim Chinese?  uhhm honestly i've never been sure what exactly constitutes Muslim Chinese, but it's definitely Northern Chinese, with all their northern noodle dishes.

Updated menus and also updated taste.  No longer are there fries on the menu!  Now they are closer to a 4 star than a 3.  

The staff also changed, as with the people making the food.  Old legit Chineses are working the kitchen from my last 2 visits.…More »

Hot spicy beef noodle soup is some of the best to this palate.  So very spicy - not for the faint at heart.  Your best bet is to get the mild broth and ask them to bring the spice broth on the side so you can add to your own liking.  

The green onion…More »

I think the best part of my meal was the cold seaweed.  So much garlic, so much sesame oil. Just how I like it.  And not seaweed-y, if you know what I mean.

Anyways, I like this place.  Not in the way that I would necessarily come back because nothing…More »

Noodle House is a quaint little shop in an old plaza.  I almost thought I came to the wrong place.  

We started off with some cold dishes.  The cold seaweed plate was very  fishy in the worst possible way. I do not recommend this at all.  The pig ear…More »

I think this place should be Mimi's Cafe instead of Mimi's house.  It's got hits and misses but I say it's mostly a miss.  

The popcorn chicken is battered lightly and it's pretty good in terms of tenderness and spiciness and basil flavor.  The beef…More »

The food was pretty normal, I didn't get blown out of my pants.  It was a hole in the wall, but not like anything like a 'hidden jewel'.  it's just hidden.

Tasted the beef noodle soup, and it wasn't the best I've had in the area.  It fills up the…More »
