Chuan Yu Noodles Town

A few months ago (yes, yes, backlog of photos, sorry) I met Will for lunch at tiny, unassuming restaurant next to a taco stand on valley called Chuan Yu Noodles Town.  We took notice of it after reading this post on eatdrinknbmerry displaying a seriously decadent bowl of beef noodle soup.
The restaurant itself is a [...]

Hotpot with Friends

When the weather’s cold and you have friends over, there’s nothing better for dinner than hot pot.  It’s DIY, which means I don’t have to spend forever preparing something in the kitchen.  I guess it’s a bit intimate since everyone is fishing tasty morsels out of the same giant pot, but it’s okay, boiling broth [...]

Yunnan 168: a new player in the game

It’s a [...]

Tasty Noodle House — tasty bao as well

We started [...]

No. 1 Noodle House (Rowland Heights)

Okay folks, repeat after me: Rowland Heights. As in ROH-land Heights. That is the proper way to pronounce the city right off of the Fullerton exit on the 60. Now that that’s out of the way, how about some noodles?
No. 1 Noodle House is located in a food-court in Yes Plaza in Rowland Heights. [...]
