Spicy Village, Chinatown.
Let me preface and say that I am not a big fan of heavy cumin flavored dishes so the big plate chicken is not my cup of tea.
I would argue the tomato egg showcases these noodles better than the big plate chicken. I devoured this. A little chile oil would have been perfect.
Pepper Chicken. This was so good with some rice.
This place was poppin! It is on a Saturday I know.
What’s most impressive is the majority of customers were lao wai’s. I was probably the only Mandarin speaking customer. It’s a small spot. This is a Henan restaurant owned/operated by Fujianese with lots of lao wai’s eating there. Kind of a shock compared to SGV. Will come back again. I got it to-go. If it was a nice day I would recommend to bring it across the street to Sara D and enjoy it alongside the families/uncles in the park.
