We were having a couple of staycation drinks nearby this past weekend when I decided to search out somewhere to grab a bite. I noticed Mad Noodle was new and the idea of a big fat noodle carb filled spicy dinner delight was just the perfect follow-up to my frosty brew. We walked in and settled down at the bar by the door. I notice the small chalkboard on the bar advertising a happy hour from 5-7 every day. You can get 1/2 off select apps. Unfortunately the app I was interested was not included in the happy hour price, however that didn't deter me from ordering their steamed Asian Pork Buns, 6 come in an order for 8.95. For my entrée I knew I wanted some noodles and with some helpful suggestions from our server/bartender I went with the *Singapore Noodles with shrimp on a heat level of 4 out of 5. The heat here is not as extreme as in other Asian restaurants in the city so if you aren't afraid of a little spice 4 is a safe bet.
Our buns were delivered and they were very good. I could have probably eaten a dozen and I'm not kidding. They were light and airy with a decent amount of filling. This was a great start to our early dinner. My entrée was brought out shortly after our apps and it was steaming hot and fresh. The spice level was perfect for me where it had a nice kick but I could still taste everything and it wasn't overpowering. I couldn't finish it or I would have been in a carb coma but man those leftovers were great. Even though I felt like I was on an episode of Miami Vice, seriously what's with the neon blue and pink lights? It was a very good dining experience both food and service.
