June 2025 Rundown



Luyu Dumplings. Shandong power!!! Nothing but green flags here…..the kitchen has a granny making the noodles, boxes of stock around the restaurant, no ambiance no art no vibes, boss lady doing boss things, and I think there is a restroom or not lol.

The noodles here! This is one of the best bowl of noodles in LA right now. At $9 the highest QPR possible. If you want noodle soup definitely go for the the thiccc and wide noodle. This bowl of youpo noodles with garlic, scallion, chile flakes, and oil. THIS IS IT. Make sure you mix this properly. Not just circles. Separate and get some height to it. I add a little chile oil and black vinegar as well. So good I got 2 bowls. Also it’s almost like a aglio oglio peppecino. I would put this Shandong granny against Evan Funke.
