Mian Sichuan Noodles is a Chinese-Korean fusion cuisine. I heard a lot of good things about this place so I brought my cousin to try it out for the first time. Just by looking at the pictures, the noodles are nice, thick and generously full portions. They are true to their pictures lol
Coming in, we were seated right away and was given the full presentation on how we should order our foods and eat in the way it was presented. There is a paper place mat that has instructions on it to show us how to eat designed by their culture on eating Sichuan noodles.
The waitress knew it was my first time (maybe because of my facial distress looking through their menu), so she referred me their top selling Chef Choices.
I went for the #1 Zha Jiang mian noodles. Top ten best dishes of 2016 from Los Angeles Times Johnathan's Gold Food and Dining. The flavors are very rich and complimenting for the dish. Normally it comes Spicy but I had the option to choose how Spicy I wanted my dish. You can even opt out of the spices if you can't handle it.
My cousin got the House beef noodles but they were very spicy. Our server was very sorry and concerned for him because he was continuously sweating over the spiciness. So very apologetic lol I'm surprised he finished it. His last words were, "I ain't no bitch" after he finished the soup.
We were given Mung bean soup which is a traditional beverage from China. It is made of natural mung beans, water, and sugar. We are suppose to drink the mung bean soup during our hot meals, for its cooking and refreshing qualities. It helps balance the Spicy dish so we can enjoy every last bite.
I definitely will come back for more of their delicious dishes. So rich, Spicy, and sweet in the same meal. Thank you Alina for serving us and recommending our dishes to us.
