| - Came here to pick up some lunch when my friend had found this while I was giving suggestions on what to eat for lunch. I had never known about this place opening up so close to me (about 1 mile away) !
Located on the NorthWest corner of Flamingo and Durango, it sits facing south, west of the CareNow Urgent Care.
Decent sized restaurant with an open style kitchen, with a fairly small menu.
10 "Appetizer" including Sweet & Spicy wings, edamame, poached broccoli, vegetable spring rolls, green salad bowl, calamari, dancing tofu, homemade little dumplings, braised pork belly buns, and shaking chicken
5 "Wok Fried Noodle" including Sweet & Spicy, Mama Lee Chow Mein, Pork Belly Udon, Crispy Egg Noodle, and Singapore Noodle
7 "Rice" including Sweet & Spicy fried rice, Mama Lee Fried Rice, Lychee Massaman Curry, Spicy Rice Bowl, Signature Rice Bowl, House Curry, and Sweet & Juicy Chicken
9 "Soup Noodles" including Shrimp Noodle Soup, Tempura Udon, Laksa Noodle, Miso Ramen, Shoyu Ramen, Beef Pho, Dan Dan Noodle, Fish Ball Soup Noodle, and Crispy Fish Noodle Soup
4 "Desserts" including Grass Jelly Lychee, Mango Pudding, Bobo Chacha, and Warm Mango Sticky Rice
We had both gotten Dan Dan Noodles and Braised Pork Belly Buns to share.
Dan Dan Noodles include garlic ground pork, egg white noodles, cucumber topped with a sesame paste sauce.
Very simple dish. Sesame paste is a staple for the base of a dan dan noodles. Wish they offered a spicier version or way to make it spicy. Could use more of the cucumbers as well. The dan dan noodles became fairly one noted with out the freshness due to lack of cucumbers, and other spices. Still a decent dish and amount for the price though.
As I took it to go, it was served in a black plastic container with a clear lid. I believe these are microwavable. Good quality take out containers.
Braised Pork Belly Buns (2 Pieces) comes with pickled cucumbers and carrots with a sweet soy reduction. The pork belly buns was nice to have the pickled cucumbers and carrots as it helps bring some acidity and brightness to the buns. Unfortunately the pork belly isnt as soft as I had hoped. Though it may have been because I did take it to go. Comes with a few of those shrimp crackers on the side too XD
Overall, ok place. Good to know there's a chinese place nearby thats decent where i don't have to travel down to Chinatown for. 2 noodle dishes and appetizer for less than 20 bucks.
