  • I first noticed Calan Beef Noodle from the line-up around the block on its opening day. That definitely sparked curiosity in me, not enough to stop and join the queue but enough to suggest that I try it. The boast on the outside sign is that they've been making "Traditional Lan Zhou Hand pulled noodles" since 1915. I stopped in last night around 7:45 p.m. They close at 8:30 p.m. but a couple of tables were occupied. It's a limited menu of 4 noodle bowls and a choice from 4 types of noodle based on how you like your noodles, whether round and skinny or thick or flat and narrow or wide. You can have beef noodle soup, soup with soy bean paste and noodle with minced beef or noddles with just vegetables. That's basically the extent of the menu and you also have some side dishes such as tea-soaked egg and a couple of other items but most of them were sold out by the time I looked at the table. The chef is behind a glass panel so you can watch the noodles being pulled and then cooked and you can select the side dishes you want from the table beside the noodle table. I had the beef noodle soup and it definitely had a beefy flavour. The noodles were pretty good too but I think the dish would have tasted better had I opted for the flat and narrow noodles. I ordered the wide and they were about 3/4" in width. Texture matters and I think the narrower noodles would have suited this dish better. They have NO TAKE OUT. There is a small lot shared with about 5 or 6 other businesses so depending on time of day it might be busy. I stopped in for lunch today (friday) and that's how I found out there is no take-out and also found parking easily. The noodles could have been a little more al dente. Service was ok, not overly friendly but as I sat eating last night none of the people there (all wearing restaurant uniforms) interacted with much emotion or joy. They seemed very inscrutably chinese, not offering information but happy to answer questions. My bowl of noodles was around $11.50 but it was tasty and very filling without any side dishes.
